Turkey dries up the Euphrates river

The crisis revolves around the Euphrates River, which quickly became the Euphrates Creek when Turkey completely cut off the water flow upstream of Syria, reported Al Akhbar on May 30. The Euphrates originates in Turkey and passes through the Atatürk Dam before flowing into Syria and Iraq. By cutting off the flow and directing it into the reservoir, Turkey has lowered water levels downstream

I have not heard this anywhere else.

[Cvengr]

Turkey’s basting?

[TaMoDee]

That was one very thirsty turkey.

[Ken522]

There will be water wars ...

Revelation 16:12?

[SpeakerToAnimals]

More like Syria and Iraq baking. The picture at the source is a boat in a mud flat.

“And the sixth angel poured out his vial upon the great river Euphrates; and the water thereof was dried up, that the way of the kings of the east might be prepared.”

Revelation 16:12

[Gen.Blather]

When Turkey built the dam there was concern downstream they’d do this and Turkey (a different government) swore it would never happen. Look for an attack on the dam next.

[mrsmel]

Pastor Billy Crone spoke of it in his Final Countdown prophecy series before it happened.

[SpeakerToAnimals]

Nope.Rev. 16:12 is in the tribulation. We have a way to go yet. Besides, this is Turkey, not God drying up the river.

The problem with blowing up a dam because you need the water is that you most likely live downstream and will get flooded

[bravo whiskey]

Events similar to this but not as severe was happening with Israel and Syria in the Golan heights in ‘66 and ‘67 before the war.

[SpeakerToAnimals]

An attack on the dam is likely. It would flood Bagdad.

[SpeakerToAnimals]

Kansas worried about this when the Pueblo Dam was built.

[Jedidah]

As King Solomon wrote in Ecclesiastes, “There is nothing new under the sun.”

In 539 B.C., Cyrus the Great of Persia diverted the Euphrates, allowing his army to crawl under the city walls and conquer Babylon.

[Slump Tester]

"...you most likely live downstream and will get flooded"

None of the inbreds over there are bright enough to figure that out until it actually happens.

[PGR88]

It seems they are unable to pass water

Oh I know that. I just thought it was an interesting coincidence that the Euphrates is quite capable of being dried up.

Lots of folks think that Revelation is just allegory, and that those things could NEVER really happen.

[McGruff]

Hell everybody else is fighting why not Turkey and Syria. Must be a full moon or something.

[TomasUSMC]

Then build it.
