The Fall Of Assad And What It May Portend For Iran?


The fall of Assad came fast and little anticipated.

At least, for Assad himself.

Russia being preoccupied with its own war with Ukraine could do little to help its Syrian buddy.

Iran, for all its boast to send an army of its spawns, Hezbollah, to help Assad knew it was only a shadow play, Hezbollah having been reduced to laughable spectacle thanks to Israel.

Now, what does the dramatic fall of Assad portend for Iran itself?

The collapse of the ai ya tu lah regime, coming as dramatic as the fall of Assad?

And a whole new ball game in the troubled Middle East?

As Israel watches the development, not fooled by what has happened.

Can the new Syrian regime that eventually merges be trusted?

Will there ever be lasting peace in the troubled Middle East?

Simon

According to prophecy, Syria will later be aligned with Europe, Turkey, Saudi Arabia and some other moderate Arab nations

Simon Shared The Below

Simon 

Poor ayatollah, left alone.

Om Ni

Haha the lonesome! Time he knew his time leh!

Om Ni

Prophecy is only as good as the length of time it takes for anything to happen. By scientific reckoning, given enough time anything can happen

Om Ni

So not so helpful leh!

Om Ni

The only time when peace prevails is when mankind leaves faith aside and ceases fighting the battles on its behalf leh

Om Ni

Turkey may think it has won. The reality is that it is stretching beyond limits and could well see trouble in time. Erdogan is in his last legs. The Turkish people may not altogether be for him. Let's see what happens

Simon

Trump becoming the President has been fulfilled, the split between Syria and Iran is fulfilled. Let's see how long it takes for Europe (led by Germany)  to exert its influence.

Om Ni

Trump's return no brainer. Only 2 candidates. With cognitively challenged Biden sleeping behind it all, what to expect?

Om Ni

theTrumpet talks about Psalm 83 but it says nothing about Syria joining up with Germany

In fact, Psalm 38 invokes god's help to curse the listed enemies of Israel among whom, the Hagrites, the Hagarenes, theTrumpet states refer to as Syria

Om Ni

Never mind, people interpret to suit their own understanding

Simon

Germany was known as Assur or Assyria.

Simon

PSALM 83:8

Assur also is joined with them.

Om Ni

That's a fanciful connection. Assyria is more appropriately identified as Iraq. Assur was its old capital

Om Ni

If Assyria now refers to Germany,  then Psalm 83:8 lists it as one of the ten enemies of Israel!

Postscript 2 : Simon Retorted With The Image Below And My Following Response 

Simon

From Google

Om Ni

Being considered a precursor is not the same as Germany is the modern Assyria. In fact there are websites out there that dispute the association. Me have no time for all the opinions floating around that do no more than attempting to prove the dubious hehe..😂😂 loh!

Om Ni

Anyone could interpret the Bible to justify what one posits the Bible says

Om Ni

The Bible itself is better read critically

Om Ni

The God of the Bible, if it exists, would appear to be no more than a being undeserving of respect. What it claims to be - ever loving, compassionate and forgiving

Om Ni

Just look around the world and people's lives critically, what does it say of such a being?

Om Ni

Unless one is prepared to make excuses or justifications

Om Ni

Claiming god has a plan, we puny men have no idea of god's goodness and divinity

Om Ni

Like it or not, I find it all so distressing to even have to cover up for such a being

Om Ni

I think humanity needs to critically evaluate what they have been preached to or taught about

Kluang RailCoffee
The Kluang railway station coffee shop, now re-branded Kluang RailCoffee, is well known for its cuppa of coffee and the charcaol grilled piping hot buns oozing with butter and kaya...It used to attract standing-room only crowds. It still does, but the last time I was there it wasn't a good experience for me. The famous coffee had somewhat lost its oomph and even the buns...The shop has a long and noted history being first opened for business in 1938 and the place is now run by the 3rd generation LIm family. I hope the next time I return, the coffee would regain its oomph. Click to read more...
