A Little Help From Their Friends

As I write, there is celebration in the streets of Iraq. The world watched in amazement as a statue of Suddam Husein in the center of Baghdad was pulled down and its head dragged away. It wasn't long and a relieved world was celebrating too.

Yet, not everybody shared in the joy. For certain political leaders in France, Germany and Belgium, the feelings were a little different. Once again mighty America has been victorious and they have been humiliated. It was primarily these three states who lead the opposition to America and Britain going to war against Iraq in the United Nations Security Council. Not only did these states fail miserably in their efforts to stop the war, now that the war is over there is celebration in the Iraqi streets.

Yet, I suspect the most infuriating images of all for these proud political leaders of Europe who opposed the war are the pictures of all the Iraqi people waving American flags and kissing pictures of US president George W. Bush.

So, as the pro-American forces in Europe once again reap the fruits of siding with the world's only superpower, the anti-American forces in Europe huddle together in a dark corner.

If you've been following my commentaries, you know when Britain, Spain and Portugal decided to stand up and support American's vital interests in the Mediterranean, it split apart the EU's new 10-nation military wing that came on the scene back in 2000.

Here's why: When this 10-nation alliance was made the military wing of the EU, it was placed under the direction of the EU's first High Representative of Common Foreign and Security Policy, Javier Solana. And, since negotiating the Euro-Mediterranean Partnership for the EU back in 1995, Solana's ultimate foreign policy goal has been the Mediterranean. Now, not only is Solana's Mediterranean foreign policy threatened by America's victory in Iraq, his once united 10-nation military alliance has been split apart.

Now here's where things get interesting for students of Bible prophecy. It appears Solana's anti-American members of his alliance are reacting. It's being reported by the EUobserver the anti-American forces in the EU want to create their own defense group outside the EU (Read about it here). And, they want to do it with a little help from their friends -- the EU Parliament (Read about it here), and Russian president Vladimir Putin (Read about it here).

As I said, for students of prophecy things are getting quite interesting. You see, when the Antichrist comes on the scene in a reunited Europe with his 10-king alliance, he pulls three of his 10-kings out by the roots in his rise to power (Daniel 7:7-8). Furthermore, his foreign policy is directed toward the Mediterranean -- specifically Israel (Daniel 9:27).

Question: Are we about to see a fulfillment of these prophecies?

Stay tuned!

RollinThunder, I just don't know what I would do without you!  I watch the Fox News Channel, but since the war started that is all that they are covering.  I hate to complain but I just know that other things are happening in this world.  I have been expecting Solanas to try to do something when we all have our eyes focused elsewhere, he's just so sneaky,you know!  Thank you so much for the update;  I really appreciate all of your articles.

The Battle of the Horns

As I've said before, the European Union is a strange beast -- different from anything the world has ever seen before (The Strange EU Beast). Today it is made up of fifteen different sized, one-headed creatures that every six months take turns being the EU beast's leader.

In 2004, the EU beast will absorb ten more little one-headed creatures into its body. This means, this time next year the EU beast will be a huge monster made up of twenty-five different sized creatures and, if things stay as they are, it will have twenty-five creatures taking turns being its leader.

And, as it stands today, only ten of the fifteen one-headed creatures that make up the strange EU beast have horns. So, the EU beast has only ten horns available to defend itself in times of trouble. However, this could soon change.

Recently, a disagreement between the horns broke out when another beast -- a very powerful one that lives across the sea -- asked the EU beast horns for help in fighting a foe. Three of the horns liked the beast across the sea and wanted to help. The other horns didn't like the beast across the sea and refused to help.

At first the ten horns tried to work out their differences. But, when it became evident this wasn't possible, the three horns that wanted to help the beast across the sea went off without the other horns to fight the foe.

Now the three horns have triumphantly returned from helping the beast from across the sea. And, to their surprise, they have found the horns they left behind still angry with them. In fact, the horns they left behind are so angry they not only don't want to let the three horns back into their group, they're actually attempting to make the EU beast a completely new set of horns.

Will these angry horns be successful. The three horns don't think so. For one thing, the three horns think the EU beast's set of horns will always need the friendship of the very powerful beast that lives across the sea. For another, the ten new creatures that are to be absorbed by the EU beast in 2004 also like the powerful beast from across the sea (Read about it here). So, the three horns reason, when the ten new creatures become a part of the EU beast in 2004, the angry horns will have no choice but go along with being friends with the beast from across the sea.

Never the less, the angry horns are still angry. So angry, in fact, they have come up with a plan. They have decided to asked another very powerful beast -- one that lives in the far north -- to come and help them make a new set of horns for the EU beast that doesn't need the friendship of the powerful beast from across the sea.

And, what about the ten new creatures that still like the powerful beast from across the sea? Well, since the ten new creatures are not scheduled to be absorbed into the EU beast until 2004, the angry horns will attempt to create their new set of horns for the EU beast this year in 2003 while they still have the power to do so.

Yes indeed, things are getting exciting in Euroland.

EU Accession Treaty signed in Athens

The signature of the Accession Treaty claims unity in disunity (Photo: EUobserver.com)

EUOBSERVER / ATHENS - The ceremony of the signature of the Accession Treaty for the ten new member states took place today, Wednesday 16 April at the historical site of the Acropolis in Athens. The site is the symbol of the birth of democracy in ancient Greece and will now also be the reference point of a re-unified Europe.

The ten acceding countries (the Czech Republic, Cyprus, Estonia, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Malta, Poland, Slovakia, Slovenia) now have an 'observer status' with regards to the EU but they will only become full members on 1 May 2004.

The signature of the Treaty puts an end to the disunity of Europe in geographical and political terms, as several heads of state and government underlined today; but disunity inside Europe remains.

The event was over shadowed by the constant divergence of opinions emerging between member states on various issues like the administration of post-Saddam Iraq and the future of the EU.

"Solidarity" was therefore the word present in almost all the speeches evoked by representative of the member states and acceding countries during the ceremony. In the same spirit, unity, security and prosperity were the key words of the joint Athens Declaration adopted today by the Europe of 25, promoting shared European values and the commitment to greater co-operation.

Coherence and reform needed

French president Jacques Chirac welcomed enlargement but said this could only succeed if Europe takes the opportunity to reform the European project - meaning institutional reform. He added that Europe will become richer through diversity but has to guarantee cohesion.

British Prime Minister Tony Blair considered this a good opportunity for Europe to give a positive example of unity to the world. He also welcomed Romania, Bulgaria and Turkey, which are not part of this enlargement but were invited to the ceremony.

Hey!  Is that it?  The big 10?

2004 ya know ::

When I was studying the last week of Jesus I saw a Jewish chart/calendar and the Abib was just before it!  The next scheduled Abib is in 2004 and they never know exactly when it will be because it depends upon the maturity of the Barley and the full moon, so "you can't know the hour or the day"

:il:  <---There I am, looking up!
