Afghanistan: Not the End: The Coming Daniel 8 War With Iran and the Subsequent Collapse of the West

The Coming War With Iran and the Subsequent Collapse of The West

There Will Be No New World Order

Despite what is being said, and propagated, the Western Tower of Babel will never be completed. There will be no New American Century or Western New World Order. God destroyed this before, and it will come to nothing again.

Though the Western Nations are now consolidating Power now as the economy collapses totally world wide.

A New Order will come, not out of the West, but out of the Middle East.

The End of Alexanders Empire and the Coming War with Iran

We are now coming to the end of Alexanders Empire. But, before the End of the West finally comes, there must be the war between the West (Greece) and the Ram of the East (Iran).

The West (Grecian) and Ram of the East (Iran/Persian) War

This war is summarized in (Daniel 8:2-8 and 11:2-3). This war will take place inside the land of Iran on the River Ulai near the Citadel of Susa (Daniel 8:2-3). It is not the West that begins this war, but Iran as it pushes its way towards the North, South and West in its own Region (Daniel 8:4).

Iran to Become Powerful First

We are told that Iran will be so powerful in his region that can nobody can stand before it. The West (Greece) responds in kind by rising up from the WHOLE WORLD to come upon Iran, striking it down, so that it cannot get up again. The Goat (Greece/The West) is seen not touching the ground in this attack. This could highlight how swift the attack will be (Daniel 8:5-7).

West Successful For Little While After The War With Iran

After this war with Iran, the West (Greece) is successful for a little while only, and then he collapses into 4 (Daniel 8:8 and 11:3-4). The Western King that does as he pleases is the Prominent or Foremost Leader that is characterized by the Single Horn on the Grecian Goat (Daniel 8:21), and when he is broken, 4 will then rise up instead of him (Daniel 8:22 and 7:1-7).

This collapse is not something that happened when Alexander died, but when his Empire is coming to its end.

The Rise of Assyria and Egypt as Last World Power Depicted by The Iron Legs in Daniels Dream

The War between the West and Iran is by no means over, for after the war with Iran, the West collapses into 4 (Daniel 7:1-6), and the most fearsome of the 4 (the Beast) crushes and tramples down that of the other 3 (Daniel 7:7). There will be another struggle for power which results in Assyria and Egypt rising as the Beast/Iron Legged Kingdom Power. This will be the last World Power. It will last 70 years. Its the last Kingdom of man before Gods Kingdom comes.

Out of this Beast (which will be the 4th and Final World Empire) will come the 10 Middle Eastern Kings and the Assyrian who will rule ultimately (Daniel 7:23-24).
