...”And the sixth angel poured out his bowl on the great river Euphrates, and its water was dried up to prepare the way for the kings from the East.”...~ Rev. 16:12

Sarge...you and I are on the same wave length in that regard. First thing that came to mind when I read the title of this thread.

ISIS damming the Euphrates just shows what is possible to make the way of the Kings of the East...like China even.

Very interesting isn’t it?

The symbolical meaning of the Euphrates has been touched upon before. In the great age-long struggle between the kingdoms of Christ and the world the Euphrates represents the great separating boundary between the two kingdoms, as the literal Euphrates formed the barrier between Israel and the hostile northern and eastern kingdoms... It is the great impediment to war. ......The “kings of the east” (or of the sun-rising) represent the forces of rude and open evil which have been long restrained.... As the four barbarian and tyrant kings (Genesis 14:1-24) from the East invaded the land of promise in Abraham’s days, so the leaders of open and violent hate of right, purity, and Christ, have the way of their advance prepared.

from Ellicot’s Commentary

If so, ISIS is going to get a load of Iranians on their ass pretty soon.

Wooo Hooo!
Finally, a target they can't hide.

How long before it's ready, anyway?

And Hussein better not even think about giving them a Federal Grant....

Yeah, I thought I remember reading about this story somewhere. So I guess we’ll just wait for the 200 million man invasion as soon as the Chinese get pissed off enough.
