Interesting Middle East News
Here were a couple of very interesting bits of news from today. I
have to wonder if Russia is feeling a “hook in it’s jaw” that is
drawing it to the middle east?! See Ezk 38:1-4… notice it names Rosh
or Russia, Tubal which some say translates to modern day Turkey, Persia or Iran, and Ethiopia… which interestingly if
you read the rest of the Somali pirate story (link below) you will find out they are
taking the weapons into ports in Eritrea, (or Ethiopia) and
distributing them to Hamas from there! The only country left is Libya… keep your eyes open for how Libya will play into this.Looks like the times of Ezekiel are ever closer!

A Russian naval task force led by aircraft carrier docks at Syrian port
January 13, 2009 Admiral Kuznetsov carrier heads east“The force, which includes the Admiral Kuznetsov aircraft carrier, the
Admiral Levchenko destroyer and the Nikolay Chiker salvage tug, was due
to call in at the Syrian port of Tartus Monday, Jan. 12 after carrying
out joint exercises with the Turkish navy last week.DEBKAfile’s military sources report that the arrival of the Russian
flotilla in wartime is unusual and especially significant given Syria’s
role as one of the staunchest backers of Hamas which is embroiled in a
war against Israel further down the coast in Gaza.Our sources believe Moscow may be signaling its disapproval of Israel’s military operation in the Gaza Strip……”
Iran recruits Somali pirates to replenish Hamas arms stocks
“DEBKAfile’s military sources reveal a secret war waged by the US,
Israel and Egypt to shut down Iran’s serpentine maritime routes through
the Red Sea and Suez for refilling Hamas’ depleted arsenal by sea.
After Hamas lost an estimated 60 percent of its weapons stocks to
Israeli bombardments, Iran enlisted Somali pirates to step up the flow
of smuggled hardware to Gaza. Tehran is rearming the Palestinian
Islamists at top speed to persuade them to carry on the war against
Israel and not surrender to Egypt’s ceasefire terms.”Read the rest of both of these articles here:

It’s really hard for me to follow what is happening in the world, because it’s all so INTENSE! I feel so weighed down by it right now.
I didn’t know the Somalis were giving arms to Hamas. Didn’t the Somalis hijack (Is that the word?) an Iranian ship? Was that all for show?
Oh, boy. That’s all we need, for Russia to get involved. Who’s missing? China?
P.S. I like your picture on top. That’s beautiful!
Interesting…
By the way… I love the new look here.

I don’t know what the deal is with the pirates… they are pretty interesting characters. It wouldn’t be unheard of for a thief to rob another crook then they end up working together…. It’s all about the money.
