Yes, you are right;the prospects are terrifying. By the way I wrote a blog about the crisis on the 10th January.

Madness in the Middle East. One theory for what the cause is.

     I have also struggled to make sense of this, in two recent blogs, just last week. I once theorized that this region has fallen victim to "Camel Madness," because after thousands of years of camel urine seeping down through the sand into the water table, and having no recourse to drink beer instead, all inhabitants of the region contracted "Camel Madness!"

Slim to none, imho.

The powers that be seem intent on marching toward whatever bitter end, predestined or not.  One interesting interpretation of prophecy suggests that Armageddon will be played out on a much smaller stage than most of us imagine (the Middle East), though the outcome will be far-reaching and disastrous by human standards.

Of course, any battle is unpalatable to say the least.

The chances are slim but you're right. There is only one answer - to this and every other conflict.

Maybe it is Armeggedon. However I wonder if other Arab nations will help Hamas. For all their talk, they don't seem to care to much for them.

Re: Everything is shaping up to the war of wars.
Got it TexasGem, I am one of the ones who understands. It is just the Book of Revelations unfolding but yet so many refuse to accept it to this day. Obama will fail as all presidents have and will to bring peace to this region. Of course, all of that is so miniscule in the whole picture.

Everything is shaping up to the war of wars.
If the world only understood.
