The “Arab Spring” looks to be followed by an Islamist winter...

Likely to be a nuclear winter...

Not sure.

It isn’t out of the box to say that NATO will side with Turkey. Israel isn’t well thought of by most of NATO.

The interesting thing to ponder is that would open up Russia to move against Turkey.

This month is turning out to be very interesting, especially with the UN vote on a Palestinian State set for September 20th.

Gog and Magog were big in Celtic mythology, and there are many who consider the Celts the sons of one of or the other (remember, Magog was a son of Japheth). A friend of mine from Ireland first told me that the Celtic people were from the tribe of Magog, and there is some

We in the US often think of such things as “Places” when the ancients would see them as “People”.

Thanks markomalley.

The "Arab Spring" looks to be followed by an Islamist winter, and Turkish Prime Minister Recep Erdogan wants to be Old Man Winter. The Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt has even gone so far as to warn Erdogan not to muscle in on their action.
