During the last 40 or so years [that we know of], Babylon in Iraq has been under construction, and by 1000’s of workers. The bulk of the funding being put up by the UN [UNESCO]. Billions of Dollars have been literally invested and pumped into this project.
As of July 5th, 2019, the site received world heritage status and funding.
This project, as far as we can tell, had its beginning in the [70’s] by Saddam Hussein. This is a project that is one of Saddam Hussein’s lesser known and not so infamous undertakings.
This is a project that did not go unnoticed,, for it was reported on by [The World Press Review February 1990] and [Gulf News].
One of the Great Halls in this reconstruction project was used by Saddam Hussein for [Affairs of State] in 1987.
Like in times of old, Babylon and the Middle East has once again become the focus of world attention. Makes you think what the Gulf War was and is all about?
Babylon was never destroyed by Cyrus. He and his troops were there three days before the inhabitants knew of the coup and that the City had been taken over. The city was also taken without so much as a fight. Jehovah, as the Bible tells us, made sure that the doors were left open for this to happen. Darius and Alexander had also lived there. It was NEVER EVER DESTROYED. It still exists today.

So what has really become of the city that Isaiah predicted would never be inhabited again......."neither shall the Arabian pitch tent there; neither shall the shepherds make their fold there" [Isaiah 13:20].
Nearby is the major Arab City of Hillah. Professor [Koldeway] the German Archaeologist mentioned at least [4 villages]. It is populated with over [300,000] inhabitants that are located [right on the site] of Babylon. Professor [Koldewey] also recorded that there were plenty of [nomadic shepherds] living nearby.
Babylon, it seems, has never been uninhabited,. It was and never has been destroyed according to the fashion of Sodom and Gomorrah. Alexander even used Babylon as one of his strongholds. There was never any quick Sodom and Gomorrah death of Babylon in [in a moment, in a day].
If you were to check the international calling codes on the internet, you will discover the area code for Babylon is [1]. A few years ago, it would not have been there.
Just as Jerusalem has once again risen from the ashes and obscurity, so too has her archrival, Babylon.
Babylon it seems, has shaken off the dust from herself so as to command international attention, Bible days are here again folks, and nothing it seems its over until it’s over, and nothing is over yet. Things are just beginning to hot up.
Why is this important? Because we have not yet seen the last Babylon and the Prince that is Coming, the latter being a synonym for the [Assyrian] who will come rule over it [Babylon].
This Man of Sin is seeking World Domination and to be worshiped as God.
He will seek to do this when he the Assyrian enters the land of Israel and enters the 3rd Temple only to desecrate it and sets up the Abomination that causes desolation. This event then kicks off the Great Tribulation.
