The Middle East Crisis Has Just Begun

Yet more evidence that we are in the period of time that Jesus Christ spoke off.  Just look at all these headlines.  Yemen, Syria, Jordan and Libya all in upheaval, and that's just today’s headlines.  We all know of recent and on going events in Iraq, Algeria, Tunisia, Egypt and Bahrain.

“When you hear of wars and uprisings, do not be frightened. These things must happen first, but the end will not come right away”. Then he said to them: “Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom”. Luke 21:9-10 NIV

From the main news article:

Despite the military drama unfolding in Libya, the Middle East is only beginning to unravel. American policy-makers have been spoiled by events in Tunisia and Egypt, both of which boast relatively sturdy institutions, civil society associations and middle classes, as well as being age-old clusters of civilization where states of one form or another have existed since antiquity. Darker terrain awaits us elsewhere in the region, where states will substantially weaken once the carapace of tyranny crumbles. The crucial tests lie ahead, beyond the distraction of Libya.
