We know it has to happen. In fact I’ve been writing that it’s going to happen for a long time. What am I referring to? A couple of things involving one end times player actually, but today I’m going to focus my attention on a side of the issue I really haven’t dwelt on much before and that is how the nation of Turkey, presently a member of NATO seeking to gain European Union membership, is going to go from being friendly with Israel to an enemy of Israel and ally of the Russian and Iranian-led confederacy of nations predicted to attack Israel as prophesied in Ezekiel 38-39 – the battle of Gog-Magog as we commonly refer to it.<\/p>\n

The nations to participate in that attack are believed to be as follows:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • Magog – Most agree this is a reference to Russia<\/strong>.<\/li>\n
  • Meshech – Most associate this with modern day Turkey<\/strong>, ancient Anatolia, but some say it refers to the Moscow area.<\/li>\n
  • Tubal – Most associate this with modern day Turkey<\/strong>, ancient Anatolia.<\/li>\n
  • Persia – modern Iran<\/strong><\/li>\n
  • Ethiopia<\/li>\n
  • Libya<\/li>\n
  • Gomer – eastern Europe or Turkey<\/strong><\/li>\n
  • Togarmah – southeastern Europe or Turkey<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Readers, this detail of prophecy is really coming into view right now and dramatically. Check it out.<\/p>\n

    On 1-12-09, a WorldNetDaily.com report<\/span> stated the following (emphasis added mine):<\/p>\n

    “Israel’s offensive in the Gaza Strip could affect its relationships with Turkey<\/strong>, impact U.S. Middle East policy and even push Turkey closer to Iran<\/strong>, which supports Hamas in Gaza..”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

    How about that?<\/p>\n

    And then the Jerusalem Post<\/span>, on January 13th, reported that Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan has been very critical of Israel in recent days, at one point stating that “media outlets supported by Jews are disseminating false reports on what happens in Gaza, finding unfounded excuses to justify targeting of schools, mosques and hospitals.”<\/p>\n

    These allegations on the part of Erdogan are both absurd and incendiary, depicting Israel to be little different than the terrorists Israeli Defense Forces are targeting, all of which are well-known to store command and control elements as well as weapons and munitions inside mosques, civilian neighborhoods, and the like. This is old hat for these hoodlums! They fire rockets from civilian rooftops, schoolyards and the like in an effort to draw fire to those areas so they can accuse Israel of war crimes if someone innocent is hurt, something few from the liberal media and halls of government around the globe are willing to take Hamas to task for even verbally. This is true in spite of the fact that Israel is putting video up on YouTube daily to document the shenanigans of Hamas and, presumably, other militant factions aiding them in Gaza.<\/p>\n

    Are innocent casualties occurring in the Gaza Strip as we’re hearing? Undoubtedly, but there is more – much more – to the story of how those casualties are occurring than meets the eye if we are getting our information from mainstream media sources only. Israel is between a rock and a hard place in this struggle as designed by Israel’s enemies! Throughout Gaza, underneath civilian neighborhoods, markets and public buildings, tunnels have been dug within which Hamas has rockets and other armaments and munitions stored, not to mention terrorists in hiding. This, way before the recent Gaza conflict started, could’ve been investigated by the media, not to mention the thousands upon thousands of rocket and mortar attacks that have been launched into civilian areas of Israel leading up to this event, none of which, apparently, were deemed worthy of coverage by the media or global outcry. I’ll leave it to my readers to do the math on that one.<\/p>\n

    In closing, what does all of this show us, once again? Nothing that should surprise us certainly!<\/p>\n

    The Bible, God’s Word, makes it clear that Turkey is going to go from being in alliance with the West and into alliance with its Gog-Magog allies. And what byproduct will come with that? A rupture in relations between Turkey and Israel, which is wording we find in the WorldNetDaily headline linked above.<\/p>\n

    The end times drama continues.<\/p>\n

    UPDATE:<\/strong> Russia’s northern fleet has just completed training exercises with the Turkish Navy in the Mediterranean, further evidence of Turkey aligning with its Gog-Magog allies. See this article below.<\/p>\n
