Worldwide Result of the Current Conflict – Uniting Fanatical Islam!

In previous wars fought away from American shores, our troops went across the seas singing, “We’re going Over-Over, and we won’t be back till its Over-Over There,” and returned with songs like, “When Johnny Comes Marching Home Again.” Even in the midst of the great terror and horror between the two events, there was always the acute awareness that one day everything would return to what those war generations accepted as being “normal.” It will not be the same in this greatest of all wars this generation is facing, whether they like it or
not. This war will not end with a return to “normal,” unless you consider the Millennial Reign of Christ as “normal.” This war we are about to enter is a war manifesting the influence of the spirit of antichrist represented by Islam on large masses of humanity, as opposed to the influence of the Messiah on those who have believed in his coming.
This war can only end with the coming of the Messiah. I thank God things are not going to return to “normal” after Armageddon! The current episode of planned mass murder by fanatical Islam, of thousands of passengers on perhaps as many as ten airliners, is becoming “normal” to this generation.
It is a sure sign that this war is, and shall be, a different kind of war, and it will be the last one before Messiah comes to end it.
Luke 21:26-28 – Men’s hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken. [27] And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. [28] And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.
Revelation 19:16 to 20:6 – And he hath on his vesture and on
his thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS. [17] And I saw an angel standing in the sun; and he cried with a loud voice, saying to all the fowls that fly in the midst of heaven, Come and gather yourselves together unto the supper of the great God; [18] That ye may eat the flesh of kings, and the flesh of captains, and the flesh of mighty men, and the flesh of horses, and of them that sit on them, and the flesh of all men, both free and bond, both small and great. [19] And I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth, and their armies, gathered together to make war against him that sat on the horse, and against his army. [20] And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone. [21] And the remnant were slain with the sword of him that sat upon the horse, which sword proceeded out of his mouth: and all the fowls were filled with their flesh.
[1] And I saw an angel come down from heaven, having the key of the bottomless pit and a great chain in his hand. [2] And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan, and bound him a thousand years,
[3] And cast him into the bottomless pit, and shut him up, and set a seal upon him, that he should deceive the nations no more, till the thousand years should be fulfilled: and after that he must be loosed a little season. [4] And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years. [5] But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished.
This is the first resurrection. [6] Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years.
This current conflict between Hizbollah and Israel
is becoming the great catalyst which draws the masses of religious fanaticism down a narrow trail with no room to turn and retreat.
In the Napoleonic Wars there was always an awareness imbedded in the psyche of the populations of the world that the wars would finally pass, and everything would, in its own time, return to a condition of what the man in the street would call “acceptable,” or maybe “the good times.” This was also true in World War’s I and II, as well as the Korean and Vietnam wars – and sure enough, it happened.
However, in this present “War on Terrorism,” the world is dealing with a fanatical religion that will never allow its opponents to return to a condition of “acceptable” or “the good times.” This is the time of the great final war, with its last major battle of Armageddon – there is no way that mankind can stop it, and only the return of Jesus Christ can put an end to it for a thousand years.
The following extract from Arutz Sheva is just another example of how anxious Islam is to defend fanaticism in its own ranks, which is also mirrored by the worldwide growth of fanatical groups like the one just exposed in England.

Worldwide, Islamic Fundamentalists Join the Fray
Tuesday, August 8, 2006 / 14 Av 5766
Energized by the ongoing war between Israel and Hizbullah-controlled Lebanon, some Islamic fundamentalist groups claim to dispatch terrorists to Lebanon and to target Jews worldwide.
An Indonesian Muslim group announced Tuesday that it had sent 20 of its members to Lebanon in order to join the Jihad against the Jewish state. The claim, made by the Islamic Defenders Front (FPI), was reported by the Associated Press, which warned that it had not been verified.
FPI spokesman Soleh Mahmoud said the 20 men left Indonesia five days ago and are now undergoing training in Lebanon under the supervision of Hizbullah. “They are ready to die to defend Muslims,” Mahmoud said.
On Friday, before the FPI announced that it had already sent Muslim fighters to Lebanon, Indonesian Foreign Ministry spokesman Desra Percaya said, “The government understands what they are feeling… anger, disappointment and frustration with Israeli troops acting inhumanly and brutally.” He said that while the government could not stop people from joining the war in Lebanon, the seriousness of threats to do so is questionable: “If you want to do something, you want to travel, you do not need to declare it publicly, just say, ‘In the name of God’ and then go.”
Last week, the Australian government announced that it was investigating a claim by another Indonesia-based Islamist group, the Asian Muslim Youth Movement (AMYM), that it had dispatched hundreds of Southeast Asian terrorist bombers to strike Jewish or infrastructure targets in countries such as Israel, the United States, Britain and Australia.
A leader of the AMYM, Suaib Bidu, told The Australian newspaper that 217 suicide bombers – financed by wealthy
Australian-Indonesian businessmen – had already been dispatched to their target countries, with thousands more prepared to set out. According to the report, more than 3,000 terrorists were to have been inducted on Saturday in the Indonesian city of Pontianak on Kalimantan Island.
Egypt’s Muslim Brotherhood (known as Ikhwaan in Arabic) has also claimed to have 10,000 volunteers ready to travel to Lebanon to fight the Israelis. Speaking to a conference organized by the Egyptian Scientists Association on August 2, Brotherhood leader Mohammad Mahdi Akef called on his co-religionists to “help the resistance in all its forms” in Lebanon and
in the Palestinian Authority.
Similarly, Yemen’s President Ali Abdallah Saleh told an Al-Jazeera interviewer on August 1, 2006: “I hope that all the countries bordering Israel, not just Syria, would enter the war. I mean the countries bordering with Israel. We will not enter the war officially, but we will open the borders to the fighters. We will allow the transfer of money and equipment to support the Lebanese resistance and the Palestinian resistance in Gaza. …This war has become a duty incumbent upon us.
Every Muslim has the individual duty to fight on this front.” (English transcript provided by the Middle East Media Research Institute [MEMRI].)
Also speaking from Yemen, on an official visit to the country, Palestinian Authority (PA) president Mahmoud Abbas (Abu Mazen) praised Hizbullah terrorists shortly after a lethal Katyusha rocket attack on northern Israel that killed 11 people. Abbas told reporters that the Hizbullah war has reawakened the Arab world’s honor and is an example for others to follow.
