The Arab coalition that President Trump looks to be creating likely will gladly join up or be forcefully assimilated into Russia's Arab forces, then causing the U.S. and Saudi Arabia to fulfill prophecy by saying "Sheba, and Dedan, and the merchants of Tarshish, with all the young lions thereof, shall say unto thee, Art thou come to take a spoil? hast thou gathered thy company to take a prey? to carry away silver and gold, to take away cattle and goods, to take a great spoil?" Ezekiel 38-13
WOW! It is comforting to see Bible prophecy being fulfilled, even in spite of terrible things that will happen. It certainly does look like Almighty God is using President Trump. Thank God for Donald Trump! We all need to keep praying for POTUS.
With outfits like “the Army of Islam” fighting Assad I don’t see how the US military fits into that picture.
The Bush post 9/11 policy has been to support the interests of Saudi Arabia in the region and in the end its evolved into a policy supporting the “Al Qaeda with new names” rebels in Libya and Syria.
Let the Saudis fight their own wars with no US involvement whatsoever.
You’re second paragraph confuses me. are you saying the arab army trump wants to bring into northern syria will eventually join forces with russia and fight against isreal?
Let’s see...Magog (Scythians: descendants of and some in Ukraine, Southern European Russia and Crimea), Meshech, Tubal, Gomer (sons of Japeth: Iberians) and Persia, Cush and Put with them.
Nope. I don’t see Saudis in there.
That’s as bad. Syria gets to decide who helps Syria defend its land. It’s the Kurds we should be defending, against Turkey.
...to contribute billions of dollars to help restore northern Syria...
But no troops? Wonder who’s troops they will be buying.
Obama and McCain already created its “Arab force” - the Izlamik State. Now another one is to be created?
And when they behave like the Islamists, what will happen to U.S. public support for the idea?
It would only work under a U.S. command, like the former French Foreign Legion. U.S. command and control and foreign grunts.
“Support” alone will leave operational command decisions out of our hands, and the media will have a field day with every accident, every incident gone wrong, and every piece of shitty behavior by “our” foreign troops. The U.S. public will kill it quickly.
WWII set the pattern; either you control the ground or you don’t control what goes on.
Is this the same Saudi Arabia that can’t even handle Yemen? And they’re going to do what? And all their neighbors, excluding Israel, are weaker than they are, and their going to help? Good luck with that idea.
the prophecy is not really relevant.
A more accurate assessment is that the various Arab Nations have a direct interest in the establishment of the new Sunni/Kurd nation in former Syria/Iraqi territory along the Euphrates river. It is going to be a while until the eastern and western borders are negotiated and secured. The western border will eventually include Aleppo and extend to the Med.
At some point soon, the sorting out will be between the noted Arabs and a Turkey intent on glomming on to lost Ottoman territory.
