Preparing the Way for an Antichrist By-Pass
September 28, 2009

I have contended for 35 years when Israel is attacked by the 10 toes of the Daniel 2 statue, which are the 10 horns of Daniel 7 and Revelation 13 & 17, that Jordan will not be one of the 10, yet the Antichrist will not attack Jordan. Instead, he will by-pass Jordan, drive Israel in to the Negev Wilderness, then swing west
to conquer the land of Egypt.
If you will take the time to use any reference map from any source showing the location of the Kingdoms of Ammon,
Moab, and Edom during the time Daniel wrote his prophecies around 600 B.C., you will discover, by comparing it with a modern day map of Jordan, that all three of these kingdoms fit perfectly into its present borders. The kings of Egypt, Jordan, and Saudi Arabia will be killed or replaced during the attack by their own internal enemies and, after the conquest of Egypt, will be a part of a massive Caliphate. After his conquest of Egypt individual kingdoms, with majority Islamic populations from Morocco in Africa to Pakistan to Indonesia, will quickly join his massive Caliphate in fear of being overthrown.
Most of the former southern satellites of the Soviet Union will also join his new immense Caliphate.
Daniel 11:41 – He shall enter also into THE GLORIOUS LAND, and many countries shall be overthrown: but these SHALL ESCAPE out of his hand, even Edom, and Moab, and the chief
of the children of Ammon.
The ancient boil of conflict between the descendants of Jacob, Ishmael, and the six sons of Keturah, with all its internal blend of impurities, is finally coming to a head in the Middle East. In league with Syria will be Lebanon, Iraq, Iran, Algeria, Tunisia, Libya, Sudan, Morocco, and Turkey. Syria, Lebanon, Iraq, and Iran will move rapidly southward through the “glorious land” of Israel like a fast moving thunderstorm, bypassing the land where the people of Moab, Ammon, and Edom were settled when Daniel wrote his prophecies in about 600 B.C. The descendants of Edom (Jacob’s brother), and Ammon and Moab (the sons of Lot), as found on every published map for this time period, were settled immediately to the southeast, east, and northeast of the Dead Sea, precisely in the country we know as Jordan today. Hence, we can know that the antichrist will bypass Jordan as he moves south through Israel. Why would he bypass Jordan? She has no strategic, political, or economic advantage to offer him, but the Suez Canal and Egypt do, so he will head southwest toward that area after having driven the woman Israel into the Negev Wilderness south of Beersheva.
Revelation 12:6 – And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God, that they should feed her there a thousand two hundred and threescore days.
Daniel 11:42 – He shall stretch forth his hand also upon the countries: and the land of Egypt shall not escape.
The political, geophysical, and military positioning of Syria, Iran, and Iraq, from a prospective of having world influence, literally stinks. But the position of Egypt’s Suez Canal, and Cairo, her capital, is outstanding. The antichrist is supposed to be a man of genius in all areas. That being the case, he would be worse than a military academy dropout were he not to take the Suez Canal, and then make Cairo his empire’s capital.
Daniel 11:43 – But he shall have power over the treasures of gold and of silver, and over all the precious things of Egypt: and the Libyans and
the Ethiopians shall be at his steps.
The three most “precious things” in Egypt are: the Suez Canal, the Nile River and its Delta, and Cairo, its capital. He will conquer the Suez Canal zone and all of Egypt. So just what is Egypt? Many are inclined to establish it as the land bordered on the north by the Mediterranean Sea, on the west by Libya, on the south by Sudan, on the southeast by the Red Sea, and on the northeast by its Sinai border with Gaza and Israel’s Negev. And, geographically, that is quite correct. However, in reality, that is not Egypt. The real Egypt, where her people live, is much, much, smaller. Egypt is the land along her north and east coastlines up to about two miles inland, the Nile Delta, and the land along the Nile River extending about fifteen miles either side of its banks.
The antichrist will send messages to leaders of two of the original 10 nations confederated with him, namely Libya and Sudan, requesting them to mass their troops along the northern coastal border with Libya, and along the border where the Nile enters Egypt from Sudan. This will cause the diversion of some Egyptian troops away from Cairo and the Suez Canal in order to protect their western and southern borders. And this will allow the antichrist to rapidly push across the Suez Canal into Cairo and along her western and eastern coastlines, then to quickly progress southward down the Nile with little resistance. I believe he will control Egypt within two weeks after he reaches the Suez Canal.

Abdullah-Bashar talks ‘reflect warn relations’
September 26, 2009
JEDDAH: The talks between Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Abdullah and Syrian President Bashar Assad in Jeddah on Wednesday were distinguished for their warmth and positive results, high-level Syrian sources said.
They said the talks, which continued for two hours, focused on ways of strengthening bilateral relations and the roles of Saudi Arabia and Syria in the region.
The two leaders, according to the official Saudi Press Agency, had also discussed major regional and international developments.
Assad was in the Kingdom to attend the inauguration of King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST) in Thuwal at the invitation of the Saudi leader. Other regional leaders, including Turkish President Abdullah Gul and former Lebanese Prime Minister Fouad Siniora, also attended the ceremony.
The Syrian sources said the participation of Assad in the KAUST opening would strengthen the relations between Saudi Arabia and Syria.
“The two sides have expressed their happiness over the level of coordination and consultation between the two countries,” the Syrian news agency, SANA, said.
SANA added that the two leaders reviewed the developments at Arab and international levels and expressed their cooperation to realize the interests of the two countries and the Arab world.
The Saudi-Syrian summit talks in Jeddah were attended by Prince Abdul Aziz bin
Abdullah, who previously held talks with Assad in Damascus on a number of occasions.
The Syrian sources expected King Abdullah to visit Damascus to take the Saudi-Syrian relations to new heights.
The Lebanese leaders were happy over the talks between King Abdullah and Assad.
“President Assad’s visit to the Kingdom is an important step upon which we must build,” said Siniora, who is Lebanon’s caretaker prime minister and a member of Saad Hariri’s Future Movement, in remarks to reporters in Saudi Arabia.
Prime Minister-designate Hariri began talks on Thursday to form a new unity government in Lebanon, with his chances of early success seen tied to the outcome of the Saudi-Syrian summit.
