Saudi Arabia announced on Tuesday the creation of a massive anti-ISIS terror fighting intiative that joins together 34 nations. Among the nations that have united, Reuters reported: "Egypt, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, Turkey, Malaysia, Pakistan and several Gulf Arab and African states. "The countries here mentioned have decided on the formation of a military alliance led by Saudi Arabia to fight terrorism, with a joint operations center based in Riyadh to coordinate and support military operations," said a statement reported by the state news agency SPA. The countries that united to fight ISIS said in the joint statement they had a "duty to protect the Islamic nation from the evils of all terrorist groups and organizations, whatever their sect and name, which wreak death and corruption on Earth and aim to terrorize the innocent."
Iran, home to predominantly Shiite Muslims – in contrast to Saudi’s Sunni Muslim population – didn’t join the partnership. Crown prince Mohammed bin Salman, who also serves as the defense minister, said in a press conference that efforts would “coordinate†counterterrorism battles in Iraq, Libya, Egypt and Afghanistan. “There will be international coordination with major powers and international organizations … in terms of operations of Syria and Iraq,†he said, Reuters reported. “We can’t undertake these operations without coordinating with legitimacy in this place and the international community...â€

That is what many people said about the rebirth of Israel as a nation and the return of the Jews. As the 80s rock and roll singer said, we are spirits in a material world. The Spiritual is more real than physical. I will bet you that in your lifetime you see both demonic possessions become more pronounced and scriptures like this fulfilled, especially concerning Israel
Why don’t I trust the Saudis to run the anti-terrorist program?
I also don’t trust them standing up some NATO-like military command for Sunni countries.
I also wouldn’t trust them for the time of day.
“the formation of a military alliance led by Saudi Arabia to fight terrorism, with a joint operations center based in Riyadh to coordinate and support military operations,” ................................. LOL, No OPSEC problem there. LOL Hmmmfffff.
I guess the Caliphate will be capitaled in Saudi Arabia now.

Tough to imagine sparsely populated Saudi Arabia controlling the riches of Egypt...
You are reading it wrong...the Northern Alliance takes out the Southern Alliance and controls the wealth of Egypt and Libya, etc.
The Saudis want to control the oil. Iraq has the world’s second largest oil reserves. They want to add that to their own massive reserves and then control the price of oil worldwide. The then plan to kill the American fracking industry and keep us dependent on their oil forever. It’s pretty straight forward. And in the meantime, they will continue to export jihad through any means available.
No!! Thanks for that on Yemen. I am not surprised. I willpass on that I am following Ramadi? Since October 16th the Iraqis, Sadr militia and Hezbollah with the help of Iranian generals have totally failed to retake Ramadi. First, they occupied the Ramadi Soccer stadium and got their command and control all set up and then Isis sent a radio signal to the activator and blew the the stadium to smithereens. Iraq lost all field command.
So they rebuild and send more dummies out to ramadi but a truck bomb kills 4 field General.
It is funny to watch. Then 8 days ago the Iraqi army was near Ramadi!!! Silence. Stuck in the sand. These Shiites can’t fight worth crap. I sure don’t want to fight for them ever again. I want to close our borders and NUKE up!!
I agree!
Hey, that is what I was told in the 80’s.
We are much closer now than in the 80s
Is that because we have 30 more years of history behind us and nothing was realized back then?
The rebirth of Israel is the key. All of the signs that Jesus mentioned about his return in Matthew 24 hinge on the Jews being in Jerusalem (not Al Quds). Jesus said that the generation that sees these signs will not pass away until ALL the Matthew 24 prophesies are fulfilled (including Jerusalem surrounded by armies and Jesus Christ’s return to rule and reign from Jerusalem). We are getting closer by the day!
Trusting the Saudis to fight terrorism is like trusting me to protect the dessert table at a family reunion.
You get what you deserve. (and I get all the cake!)
