Turkey, Iran, Iraq, Hizbullah, Syria, & Assad are now shaking in a Can
And President Bashar is likely to be First to Fly Away as Odd Man Out
It will be interesting to see who replaces Assad in a Shiite Crescent
Syria needs a brand new non-hated strong man to replace Assad!
She needs a man who can unite the Sunnis, Shiites, & Alawites!
And sooner or later such a man will rise in the Greater Syria!
The strong man is the Daniel 11:36 Antichrist Willful King!

DANIEL 11:35 ENDS THE HISTORICAL TIME OF ANTIOCHUS EPIPHANES AND THE JEWISH MACCABEES
DANIEL 11:35 – And some of them of understanding shall fall, to try them, and to purge, and to make them white, even to the time of the end: because it is yet for a time appointed.
Verse 35 says the time of the end is yet for a time appointed, and verse 36 begins to describe the principle figure who will institute it, the last king of the north who we identify as the Antichrist, NOT Antiochus Epiphanes
Daniel’s Prophecies of the Persian kings, Alexander, his four generals who split his kingdom into four divisions, the times of the kings of the north and south through the end of the reign of king of the north Antiochus Epiphanes and the Maccabees, were fulfilled to the letter, as will be the last king of Chapter 11, who is still in our future.
He will be Antichrist, the king of the north, ruling over the same general area as the Persian Kings and Alexander.
DANIEL 11:36 TO 12:2 BEGINS AN EXPOSITION OF THE OLD TESTIMENT CHARACTEREISTICS AND ACTIONS OF ANTICHRIST UP TO MESSIAH’S SECOND EVENT AT ARMAGEDDON.
DANIEL 11:36 – And the king shall do according to his will; and he shall exalt himself, and magnify himself above every god, and shall speak marvellous things against the God
of gods, and shall prosper till the indignation be accomplished: for that that is determined shall be done.
This king of the north Antichrist is classified by his self-centered “will.” There are 11 Old Testament words translated as “will.” This one, in context, is the strongest form of self-will. This cannot be referring to Antiochus because he worshipped the Greek god Jupiter Olymplus.
This man is so filled with himself he thinks himself to be the Mahdi of Islam, filled with the fullness of the spirit of the one god Allah and, as such, would magnify himself above every god.
The “God of gods” is the God of Abraham for both Jews and Christians.
Galatians 3:6-9 – Even as Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness. [7] Know ye therefore that they which are of faith, the same are the children of Abraham. [8] And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the heathen through faith, preached before the gospel unto Abraham, saying, In thee shall all nations be blessed.
[9] So then they which be of faith are blessed with faithful Abraham.
Galatians 3:28,29 – There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus. [29] And if ye be Christ’s, then are ye Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.
The descendents of Ishmael were also the descendants of Abraham, but they forsook the “God of gods” when they swallowed the spirit of Antichrist by the false teaching of the false Prophet Muhammad, who introduced them to the false god Allah.
The things spoken against the “God of gods” are “marvelous” only in his amazing audacity to dare to speak such blaspheme against the true God. But God will allow Antichrist to do it, and to prosper, “till the indignation be accomplished: for that that is determined shall be done.”
This “indignation” determined is the consummation of the tribulation period which is described in Daniel 9:27d. It represents the vials of wrath that follow the seventh trumpet in Revelation while the saved are judged in heaven by Christ for rewards.
Daniel 9:27d – Even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate.
Revelation11:15,18 – And the seventh angel sounded; and there were great voices in heaven, saying, The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever
and ever. [18] And the nations were angry, and thy wrath is come, and the time of the dead, that they should be judged, and that thou shouldest give reward unto thy servants the prophets, and to the saints, and them that fear thy name, small and great; and shouldest destroy them which destroy the earth.
Revelation 16:1 – And I heard a great voice out of the temple saying to the seven angels, Go your ways, and pour out the vials of the wrath of God upon the earth.
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.
THIS IS THE FINISH OF THE INDIGNATION
Revelation 19:19-21 – 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.

Iran May Abandon Assad – Analyst
“The second Khamenai realizes that Assad’s ship is sinking, he’d abandon him,” says expert.
By Gil Romen
Published: 11/08/11, 6:30 PM
Iranian leader Ayatollah Khamenei
Iran’s top leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenai, may decide to abandon Syria’s Bashar Assad if he appears doomed, an analyst says.
“Assad is in deep trouble [and] Khamenei will not want to sink alongside Assad,” Meir Javedanfar, an Iranian-born commentator with the Israel-based think tank, MEEPAS, told Radio Free Europe / Radio Liberty.
“The second he realizes that Assad’s ship is sinking, and that the situation can’t be salvaged, he’d abandon him — maybe not publicly, but privately,” posited Javedanfar. “In fact it would be safe to assume that the Iranians are already privately asking Assad to introduce major reforms. They may even be talking to some elements within the Syrian opposition.”
RFE/RL reported that Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu “read the riot act to the Syrian president” on his visit to Damascus two days ago. Upon returning to Ankara, the news agency said, Davutoglu “implicitly acknowledged” that Turkey had “effectively abandoned Assad” and that its sympathies were now with the opposition.
Davutoglu said that the situation would “be passing through a critical process” in the coming days and that Turkey’s “main criterion is that the shape of the process must reflect only the will of the Syrian people.”
Turkey’s position on Syria is also dampening its relations with Iran, which for the time being is backing Assad, a key ally. But Murat Bilhan, an international relations expert and former Turkish diplomat in Iran, said relations between Turkey and
Iran — though colder — are salvageable.
“I don’t think Turkey has lost Iran,” he says. “Iran may not be lost but Iran may be a little distant — more distant than before and they would not trust [each other. But, if and when Turkish and Iranian interests converge, say for instance in fighting against separatism or something, then they would cooperate.”
