The best part of a muzzie civil war is, everyone wins.
Tru dat. There’s a neolithic site in what is now Egypt that was a village, but pretty large — and it was burned to the ground, never rebuilt, and the site was littered with many hundreds or thousands of stone arrowheads.

So far, I'm more of fan of Joel Rosenberg's writing on Ezekiel 38 and find the Biblical timeline and events he writes about that must happen first to be intriguing.
Apparently, Armageddon comes after Ezekiel's war? I am fairly late to the party when it comes to learning/studying what I probably would have been better off growing up with.
Better late than never, I suppose.
My only interest in prophecy is sociological.
I agree on the issue of our security. Obamas values are not my values.
When it comes to Syria I’m not sure we have the foggiest idea what the turmoil after Assad will mean to the USA.
I share that interest, but haven’t narrowed things down that far yet. I’m still just a seeker of information and clues for the jigsaw puzzle that my understanding of this world seems to be. Too many missing pieces to see it clearly, that or I’m making it too complicated.
Turkey has hosted refugees since the trickle became a flood, iow, after Assad started leveling whole towns formerly filled with Syrian citizens. The Free Syrian Army originated something like a year ago, and Turkey let the leadership HQ on Turkish soil. Turkey’s population is (like Syria) a bit of this, and a bit of that, but of the Muzzie population, the Sunni-Alawite split is roughly the same. Also, there are Kurds living in Turkey, Syria, Iraq, Iran, and a few other countries, basically a contiguous area crossing multiple borders. Back when, the Shah of Iran supported a Kurdish faction operating in northern Iraq, and the other Kurdish factions began life the same way, but with different benefactors. A faction that is supported by one regime attacks other regimes, but I don’t think they typically fight much amongst themselves.
That’s another thing that hasn’t changed much — dang, the world is complicated!
