The real ''spoiler'' in the whole prophetic equation is Russia. When the Soviet Union imploded and collapsed, the West became delirious with the idea of a permanent world peace. Once again, our liberal congressmen, under the battle cry of ''peace dividend,'' stripped our armed forces of bases and weaponry replacement. This opened the door for Muslim and Russian adventurism later. Critics of Bible-prophecy interpreters like myself were ridiculed by prophecy-rejecting ''Christian brothers.'' They charged us with being totally wrong about our interpretation of Ezekiel 36-39 ?– an interpretation that was at least 300 years old. They felt the fall of the Soviet Union completely disproved the teaching that the power from the uttermost north of Israel ?– predicted by Ezekiel chapter 38 ?– was Russia.
According to our teaching, Russia will arm and lead a coalition of Muslim nations, headed by Persia,(IRAN), into an all-out attack against Israel. This attack will escalate and draw all the nations of the world into global war. Zechariah makes it clear that it is the issue of Jerusalem that triggers the conflict.
Recent events make it clear that this interpretation is alive, well and right on target.
The Russian shift back to the Soviet policy of arming and siding with the Muslim Middle East began in 1996. This is when Boris Yeltsin appointed Yevgeny Primakov(A JEW) as foreign minister. His goal from the beginning was to return Russian Middle East Foreign Policy to its pre-1991 orientation.
During the Soviet Union's 1950-1989 policy of arming the Muslim nations to the teeth, Primakov became the KGB's expert on communication with the Arab leaders. He is fluent in Arabic and familiar with their culture. So it was natural that he would be tapped again to re-establish the old relationships with such radical Muslim nations as Syria and Iran (Persia). Just in the last few months, Primakov's handiwork has become obvious.
This is all extremely ironic. Yevgeny Primakov was born ''Pinchas Finkelstein'' of Jewish parents. He changed his name in order to be more accepted by the Communist Party. The irony is that a Jew has engineered a situation that brings grave danger to Israel and the United States. He may be also instrumental in setting up the fulfillment of Ezekiel's prophecy.
According to DEBKAfile's intelligence report, Russia has agreed to arm both Iran and Syria with some of their most advanced weapons. These weapons change the entire equation of power in the Middle East. It is now known that Russia has installed the advanced 36D6 radar system around Iran's nuclear facilities. This is coupled with the deadly SA-10 surface-to-air missile system that is superior to the U.S. Patriot system. It can engage several targets at once. It can not only intercept and destroy the best Western aircraft, but it can also bring down cruise missiles and ballistic missiles. The same system is to be installed around key places in Syria.
Here is a list of the deadly weaponry Russia has agreed to furnish Syria and Iran:
The SA-18 shoulder-fire missile. It is deadly accurate against the fastest jets and cruise missiles. In the hands of terrorists, the danger would be unimaginable. The lethal Kornet AT-14 anti-tank missile. Supplied to both Iran and Syria. This poses a threat so great the United States warned Syria we would attack them if one AT-14 showed up in the hands of terrorists in Iraq. The sale to Syria and Iran of advanced version of SS-26 road-mobile ISKANDER-E ballistic missiles. This highly accurate missile carries 480 kilos of multiple warheads that can evade air defense systems. This missile can carry nuclear warheads and has the range to hit Israel's Dimona Nuclear Center, as well as all of its cities. According to DEBKAfile:
