So glad you posted this,  David, awesome findings and up to date,  Thank you for helping clarify Daniel's prophesy of iron being the people coming out of the Alexandrian Empire” (Dan. 8:21-25), which is the area of Syria and Iraq today,  governed by ISLAM.
 
Have you read Perry Stone's' "unleashing the Beast'?   He is an evangelist with impeccable testimony of God's anointing writing of  what you have shared with us about these end times.   Thank you David for your message.  God's Prophetic clock is moving,   as we see the controlling trends emerge in the Middle East.
