Hal Lindsey has it correct. Syria will miscalculate one day soon. Damascus is the oldest continually occupied city in the world. The prophecy that Damascus will be destroyed must still be fulfilled (Isa 17:1-3). Nothing short of several hydrogen bombs, or an asteroid hitting the city could accomplish that prophecy today. The prophecy implies that much of the Syrian population will be wiped out in the event because it only speaks of a remnant of Syria afterward.
WorldNetDaily: The Samson Option “Syria is also known to be producing non-conventional warheads, including those containing V-X gas for delivery via the new longer range and more accurate Scuds. All Israel’s cities are within range of these missiles. Most of them can be reached in less than three minutes. Syria is gambling that Israel’s performance in the Hezbollah war of June 2006 means that it has seen all Israel has to offer.
Apparently, Bashar Assad now believes Israel can be beaten. Assad is miscalculating. In the event Syria launches a gas attack on Israel, it’s a virtual certainty that Damascus would be instantly obliterated by Israeli nuclear weapons.
The thought of being gassed evokes a visceral response among Israel’s Holocaust survivors and their descendants that Damascus wildly underestimates. Israel has more than 400 nuclear weapons in hidden silos in various places within its borders, as well as at least two submarines in the Mediterranean that are launch capable. And you can be certain that in the event of a massive WMD attack by the Syrians, Israel will respond in kind”
Don ,
No doubt in my mind that Israel would with nuclear weapons to any type of biological or chemical weapons attack against them. I believe they will use nuetron bombs. We can never rule
out direct intervention by God as it is He who guarantees the survival of Israel. Is it an
automatic conclusion that just because a particular nation is not mentioned in Ezkiel 38 and 39
that only the nations mentioned are involved.
I think I read one post (maybe it was Don’s) that Assad will make a miscalculation sometime in the near future that will result in Israeli retaliation.
I have misplaced my Camping Date Calculator (CDC) so not sure when this will happen.
