 Mideast 'may see full-scale war'

UN envoy Terje Roed-Larsen has warned that the Middle East could see full-scale war.

He said a fresh effort was needed to contain the current violence, or energetic diplomacy to try to bring peace.

"The picture which emerges is very dark, and apparently getting darker," he said.

"So there are reasons for real concerns in the international community."

Roed-Larsen, the current UN envoy for Lebanon-Syria issues who for many years was the top UN Mideast envoy, said "the geopolitical landscape of the Middle East has changed fundamentally over a few years".

"A few years ago, as it had been over many, many decades, the centre of gravity for all the conflicts were the Israeli-Arab conflicts," he said.

"Now, there seems to be four epicentres of conflict in the region with their own dynamics, the Iraqi issues, the Iranian issues, the Syrian-Lebanese issues, and of course the heart of hearts, the traditional conflict, the Palestinian-Israeli issue."

Yes, dark, because the international community lacks the moral and political will to tell the rabid crazed Islamists to back off and leave Israel alone.

They own something like 99.9999 percent of the Middle East and Islam stretches from Morocco in the west to Indonesia in the east, but of course that is not good enough, they MUST have Israel as well.

And they don't care if they kill us all acquiring it.  It's very sad, and if I weren't a Christian I'd probably go bury my head in the latest episode of American Idol or the Sopranos like most people and to try not to think about it.

Instead, I find myself reading my Bible more, listening to my Christian CD's with a greater sense of appreciation!!

We are instructed to pray for peace but reality is........  There will be no real peace in the middle east until the Kings of Kings, sets foot back on this planet.

Amen, brother.  More and more, we are seeing Bible prophesy being fulfilled, as we await the glorious return of Jesus.  Then, and only then, will we truly see peace. 

It is not a matter of "may" but when. The Lord tells us that these things will come to pass. The good news is that Jesus will come again and will win this war against evil. We that are His children will have a glorious end to look forward to where there will be no more death, sorrow nor crying.
