The beginning of the start.

I have to say, starting out on my first blog entry on this subject will be quite overwhelming. I mean considering the fact that there is so much information out there that thas to be digested and viewed in the correct light and the fact that so much is going on in the world let alone the politics and the current events happening in the United States.
But here it is a discussion of the upcoming Israeli war as seen through the filter of Ezekiel 38 and 39.

The major players: Israel, Iran, Russia, and Turkey.

The first question, "Well what about the United States?"

Answer: The United States is not specifically mentioned in the Ezekiel Text. Some suggestion for US involvement come about in the Ezekiel 38:13 passage. Where the United States and other nations(England and Canada) maybe referred to as the young lions. Their only involvement is to ask questions as to whether or not the invaders of Israel are invading Israel for plunder. This begs the question, "Why?"

The US has long been an ally of Israel formally since its recognition as a independent state in 1948. So what gives? A couple of different scenarios, (1) The United States takes a standoff approach and neither defends Israel nor chastizes it but instead lets Israel fend for itself. This could be similar to the non involvement approach taken by the US during the beginning of World War II. It is interesting to note that Roosevelt was the president during US entrance into WWII and Obama could very well be president during the Exekiel War. Obama is seen as a more extreme follower of Roosevelt progressive socialist agenda. So is progressivism a ideological rebuttal to Israel's existence? It may be possible since the United States has deep ties to the Old Testament Jewish form of government as the basis of democratic republic fromthe Noahic laws of the Hebrews. And Progressivism as defined by the US politburo is against capitalism, free market, and responsibility for actions. For a more in depth read check out the book "The 5000 year leap" by Skousen.

(2)The United States could be in bad economical shape. Moody's has given the United States 3-4 years before the dollar loses its value due to a lower credit rating. (CNBC 10/22/09)If a drop in the credit valuing of the United States happens, it starts a negative chain reaction that affects the residents of the United States as well as the world. The US dollar will not be held as the global reserve currency, reducing demand for the dollar and therefore driving prices up for US consumers from consumable pricing to mortgage rates. Also the liquidity of the dollar will dry up, causing the purchasing power of the dollar to decrease even more. The US at this point will too focused on preventing internal turmoil or even collapse than collaborating on a defensive effort with Israel.

So if America doesn't pursue a defensive policy against Israel's invaders then it is fairly likely to say that the rest of the Western Northern Hemisphere wont either. This would also include Britain, who is suffering economies woes of its own. Europe is questionable. When an situation like this that could propel the world to another world war it seems probable that the European Nations would act as a solid EU and speak as one on this. I would tend to think that their economic woes and internal politics of anti-semitism, (which is ironic considering Germany's History) would prevent them from taking any active part in the defense of Israel. In, fact Russia, Turkey, and most middle eastern nations may act as a bloc and trade oil for neutrality from the other powerful nations.

So where does that leave the Situation? Israel by itself facing seemingly overwhelming odds against a collaboration of enemies wanting to exterminate them.

I hope to have weekly analysis of the Ezekiel war as well as current events plays into the build up. Please feel free to comment.
