Nineveh was an ancient Assyrian city of Upper Mesopotamia, located on the outskirts of Mosul in modern-day northern Iraq. (NOTE verse 8)
NAHUM 1:1-8
1
This message concerning Nineveh came as a vision to Nahum, who lived in Elkosh.
The Lords Anger against Nineveh
2
The Lord is a jealous God,
filled with vengeance and rage.
He takes revenge on all who oppose him
and continues to rage against his enemies!
3
The Lord is slow to get angry, but his power is great,
and he never lets the guilty go unpunished.
He displays his power in the whirlwind and the storm.
The billowing clouds are the dust beneath his feet.
4
At his command the oceans dry up,
and the rivers disappear.
The lush pastures of Bashan and Carmel fade,
and the green forests of Lebanon wither.
5
In his presence the mountains quake,
and the hills melt away;
the earth trembles,
and its people are destroyed.
6
Who can stand before his fierce anger?
Who can survive his burning fury?
His rage blazes forth like fire,
and the mountains crumble to dust in his presence.
7
The Lord is good,
a strong refuge when trouble comes.
He is close to those who trust in him.
8
But He will sweep away his enemies
in an overwhelming flood.
He will pursue his foes
into the darkness of night.

Keep an eye on that dam and the city of Mosul (ancient Nineveh )The dam is built on the wrong type soil for a dam.
They have refused the advice of real engineers to drain the lake behind it .There used to be many Christians in Mosul , they were forced to flee or be killed . The scripture star & stripes forever quoted is dead on.
It is my understanding that a Biblical prophecy is the destruction of Nineveh which harkens ww3.
True?
Great reference to Scripture, thanks.
