Ezekiel 38:2 – Son of man, set thy face against Gog, the land of Magog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal, and prophesy against him,
Ezekiel is first told to set his face against a person and against a land.
The person is the Chief Prince of Meshech and Tubal. He comes against the land of Israel from Syria to begin the last three and on-half years of the tribulation period.
The land is the land of Magog, which today has its heartland as Russia. The land of Magog will not come down against the land of Israel until the final battle of Armageddon.
The land of Russia will not come down until they receive an invitation, an official request from the Seat of Satan’s kingdom which touches the Euphrates River.
The request will be from the Chief Prince of Meshech and Tubal after he returns from Egypt to prepare for the final battle of Armageddon. The Chief Prince of Meshech and Tubal and Daniel’s King of the North are one and the same. (See Archive Prophecy Update Number 234A)
The army of the Land of Magog, as well as most of the armies of the European and African nations, will come against Israel at the huge final battle of Armageddon, by the invitation of the Islamic Satanic Trinity in Revelation 16, issued from the area of the dried up Euphrates River, on which Syria and Iran border.
Ezekiel 38:1,2 – And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying, [2] Son of man, set thy face against Gog, the land of Magog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal, and prophesy against him,
Revelation 16:12-16 – And men were scorched with great heat, and blasphemed the name of God, which hath power over these plagues: and they repented not to give him glory. [10] And the fifth angel poured out his vial upon the seat of the beast; and his kingdom was full of darkness; and they gnawed their tongues for pain, [11] And blasphemed the God of heaven because of their pains and their sores, and repented not of their deeds. [12] And the sixth angel poured out his vial upon the great river Euphrates; and the water thereof was dried up, that the way of the kings of the east might be prepared.
[13] And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet. [14] For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty. [15] Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame.
[16] And he gathered them together into a place called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon.
Ezekiel 39:6-8 – And I will send a fire on Magog, and among them that dwell carelessly in the isles: and they shall know that I am the Lord. [7] So will I make my holy name known in the midst of my people Israel; and I will not let them pollute my holy name any more: and the heathen shall know that I am the Lord, the Holy One in Israel. [8] Behold, it is come, and it is done, saith the Lord God; this is the day whereof I have spoken.
Zechariah 14:8,9 – And it shall be in that day, that living waters shall go out from Jerusalem; half of them toward the former sea, and half of them toward the hinder sea: in summer and in winter shall it be. [9] And the Lord shall be king over all the earth: in that day shall there be one Lord, and his name one.

Putin scores major diplomatic victory by blocking NATO’s expansion plan

BUCHAREST, Romania (AP) – By scuttling the NATO membership bids of two of Russia’s westward-looking neighbors, Vladimir Putin won what is arguably his biggest diplomatic victory even before he arrived at an alliance summit.
NATO’s plan to expand into former Soviet turf collapsed Thursday when leaders – anxious to avoid angering Moscow – opted not to put the strategically important ex-Soviet nations of Ukraine and Georgia on track for membership.
The Russian president has strongly warned the military alliance against moving to bring Ukraine and Georgia aboard.
He even threatened that Russia could point its nuclear missiles at Ukraine if it joins NATO and hosts part of a U.S. missile defense system.
Putin has succeeded in driving a wedge in the alliance. The United States, Canada and Central and Eastern European nations strongly backed the bids of Ukraine and Georgia. But Germany, France and some others resisted it, fearing that the move would damage ties with Russia, a key energy supplier to the continent.
NATO pledged Thursd ay to embr
ace Ukraine and Georgia some day, but the failure to grant them a specific roadmap was a major foreign policy success for Putin just over a month before he steps down as president.
Russia has been unable to prevent Western recognition of Kosovo independence or block U.S. missile defense plans.
The collapse of NATO’s expansion plan marks the first time since the Soviet collapse when Russia actually got the upper hand in a dispute with the West.
“Clearly Putin is victorious,” said Sergei Karaganov, a Russian political analyst with close ties to the Kremlin.
“He has changed the tone of relations between Russia and the West.”
Konstantin Kosachev, the head of foreign affairs committee at the lower house of Russian parliament, said NATO’s failure to grant membership action plans to Ukraine and Georgia showed Germany, France and some others bear a “responsible attitude.”
For the expansion plan to succeed, all 26 bloc members must approve.
Strong support from U.S. President George W. Bush, who stopped in Ukraine on his way to Bucharest, failed
to persuade the reluctant NATO members to drop their objections.
“It was a victory for those who didn’t want destabilization in Europe, and it was a defeat for those outside of Europe who were seeking to destabilize it,” Karaganov said.
Looking upset, Ukraine’s President Viktor Yushchenko said Thursday that his nation’s membership bid was a test for the alliance. He tried to put a brave face to the defeat, declaring: “I’m convinced that Ukraine will be in NATO.”
Andriy Parubiy, a lawmaker from Yushchenko’s faction in parliament, criticized Germany and France. “Their decision was based on economic blackmail by Russia,” he said.
Georgia’s U.S.-allied President Mikhail Saakashvili warned that snubbing his nation would be a “bad sign.”
“It would not help our reform process,” he said in an interview published in the German daily Handelsblatt. “But either way, we will stick to the Atlantic perspective.”
Putin will dine with NATO leaders and summit guests Thursday evening, and is set to attend a meeting of the Russia-NATO Council on Friday.
But the Russian leader won’t be able to use the occasion to celebrate his victory.
His speech at the meeting will be out of the public eye in line with the meeting’s ground rules: Russia is a member of the council and Putin isn’t entitled to any special privileges.
Russia’s envoy to NATO, Dmitry Rogozin, protested the restrictions, saying the alliance’s refusal to give Putin a chance to speak publicly was an attempt to stifle Russia’s voice.
A Kremlin official who spoke on condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the issue said Moscow persistently tried to persuade NATO to change the format to make Putin’s comments open to the media, but failed.
Russia and NATO signed a partnership agreement in 2002 envisaging cooperation in combating terrorism, curbing proliferation of mass destruction weapons and other issues. But Russia’s ties with the West worsened quickly after amid numerous disputes, and Putin grew increasingly critical of NATO.
Russia has strongly opposed U.S. plans to deploy missile defense sites in Poland and the Czech Republic.
Last year, it suspended its participation in a key Cold War-era arms control treaty limiting the deployment of conventional weapons on the continent.
But NATO’s plans to incorporate Ukraine and Georgia have been by far the strongest irritant for Moscow. The two nations were part of Russia for centuries, and their strategic importance is underlined by key westbound pipelines.
Now that NATO has shelved accession plans for Georgia and Ukraine, a happy Russia may offer the alliance some favors in return.
The Kremlin has been negotiating with NATO on the transit of supplies for its mission in Afghanistan through Russian territory, and a deal could be reached Friday.
