Hi John and Doves,

After reading this article, the fog has lifted even further. Iran is now a firm player in the Russia/Ukraine war. This is NOT pleasing to the USA administration. Or NATO. Now - where else are Russia and Iran involved in? Oh - I know....Syria! Which is also where the USA has massive oil interests. At the same time, Israel is being pressured to send arms to Ukraine - which they have, thus far, managed to avoid. But, the point of this story is the partnership of Iran and Russia. Both countries loathe the USA's involvement in Syria and Russia has been instrumental in keeping Bashar al Assad in power - against overwhelming odds. They all want Syria's oil. That's a given. The old adage of "The enemy of my enemy is my friend" doth spring to mind.

When Damascus is destroyed Isaiah 17 style (most likely by Israel), one can now see why Russia will be part of the marauding hordes coming to attack Israel en masse. Iranian involvement will also be for hatred of Israel reasons (as well as their oil interests in Syria). The USA will be there, as will the EU, NATO etc. Let's face it - they will all want a piece of the pie, now that the Nordstream pipelines are kaput. Europe will be desperate.

In the meantime - back at the ranch - Turkey has geared itself up to receive natural gas from Russia via a pipeline in the Black Sea. Huh! Methinks Turkey is punching above its weight here. However, Europe won't complain. The Biden Admin., will be apoplectic with rage though. Lol. Judging by all the recent developments, it's clear that we don't have long to wait for our LORD Jesus. I tentatively suggest it may be mere months rather than years. Perhaps even weeks! The world simply cannot go on like this.

Please come soon, LORD Jesus.
