Turkey has global ambitions, and it’s not taking sides. It’s maintaining links with Western allies while forging ties with other regional powers, especially in the Middle East, Africa, and Central Asia. From military cooperation to cultural outreach and diplomacy, we look at how Turkey balances cooperation and competition to grow its international status.
Daniel first sees Iran (Ram of Daniel8) taking control of Muslim nations westward, southward and northward with its proxies: Hezbollah in Lebanon, Hamas in Gaza, Houthi forces in Yemen, Iraqi militias in Iraq, Syrian armed forces in Syria. These groups are part of Iran’s extensive proxy network, often referred to as the Axis of Resistance/Evil..
“I was in Susa the citadel, which is in the province of Elam. And I saw in the vision, and I was at the Ulai canal. I raised my eyes and saw, and behold, a ram (Iran) standing on the bank of the canal. It had two horns, and both horns were high, but one was higher than the other, and the higher one came up last. I saw the ram charging westward and northward and southward. No beast could stand before him, and there was no one who could rescue from his power. He did as he pleased and became great.” Daniel 8:2-4
Next Daniel sees Turkey (Goat of Daniel 8) takeover Iran’s position of power and become exceedingly great. But his time is short lived and I suspect the UN would not want to see Turkey establish a new Ottoman Empire and so they break it up into four nations out of which the Antichrist arises. We have been warned by God in advance and can use these fulfilled prophecies to convince unbelievers that the Bible is true and offers the only hope for future life on God’s planet. Next on God’s agenda for planet Earth is Jesus Millennial Kingdom. To get prepared go to http://www.millennialkingdom.net.
“As I was considering, behold, a male goat (Turkey) came from the west across the face of the whole earth, without touching the ground. And the goat had a conspicuous horn between his eyes. He came to the ram with the two horns, which I had seen standing on the bank of the canal, and he ran at him in his powerful wrath. I saw him come close to the ram, and he was enraged against him and struck the ram and broke his two horns. And the ram had no power to stand before him, but he cast him down to the ground and trampled on him. And there was no one who could rescue the ram from his power. Then the goat became exceedingly great, but when he was strong, the great horn was broken, and instead of it there came up four conspicuous horns toward the four winds of heaven.: Daniel 8:5-8
