Civil War in Egypt and It's Aftermath

And now it begins in earnest!  The civil war in Egypt that I've been expecting for five years, based upon my reading of Isaiah 19 in the Bible has finally erupted, and is not likely to be squelched any time soon.  And the world is shocked and amazed; the socialist governments of the world (including our own, regrettably) are "outraged", with the U.N. calling for an end to bloodshed, and a return to democracy.  Yeah!!!  Like that'll happen; don't hold your breath, folks!  The establishment Media are falling all over themselves to cover what must seem to them to be a reporting bonanza, even while their own members are already dying in the process.  Meanwhile, my best-guess analysis is to tell those who would know that they should settle down for the long hall, for this is liable to be one bloody mess, for quite a long time, with no resolution until after the prophcied Gog/Magog war when God ( through the military power of His people Israel) will ultimately destroy 83% of the Russian and Muslim nations' armies that will try to invade the middle-east ( see previous posts for details).  I'll leave it to the Media to report on the death tolls, and the day to day occurrences as the war progresses.  But between the prophecies of the Bible and the patterns of developing world events, I feel there are some realistic conclusions that can be expected to develop from all this. 

The first conclusion is that this war will initially go badly for those so-called moderate Muslims, and the 10% of the Egyptian population that are known as "Coptic Christians".  These are those who form the basis of the Egyptian army's support in overthrowing the pro-Morsi factions of the Muslim Brotherhood, and their control of the Egyptian government for the past year.  Verse 4 of  Isaiah 19 says, "And the Egyptians will I give over into the hand of a cruel lord; and a fierce king shall rule over them, saith the Lord, the Lord of Hosts."  I don't believe that God intends to leave these evil leaders in power for long, but initially it seems to serve His purpose.  I expect that the civil war will eventually go so badly ( especially for the traditionally persecuted Coptics), that there will be a mass migration towards the southern border of Israel, for safety's sake, similar to what we see happening now in Syria, with their mass refugee movement into Turkey to escape the slaughter by their own President Assad.  I believe this will be a natural development, because their enemy is also the blood enemy of Israel, and their overwhelming presence will force the Muslim Brotherhood's forces that are attacking Israel from there now, with their endless rocket fire, to withdraw to central Egypt while they prepare for the coordinated Muslim and Russian invasion, that will not be long in coming.  I expect that they may populate the whole region from Israel's southern border through the northeastern section of Egypt that the Bible referred to as the land of Goshen in the days of Moses, including Sinai.  This will work for Israel, as it will give their southern border an effective buffer zone of people who are willing to fight against a common enemy.  At the time of the Gog/Magog invasion this will be important because, while most of the destruction of the enemies of Israel is described as happening on "the mountains of Israel", which presumably is to the north of Israel, it is coordinated with an invasion by both Lybian and Ethiopian armed forces which would presumably attack Israel through Egypt. And if the ultimate result of their combined invasion is the near destruction ( 83%)  of the enemy forces attacking Israel, that would seem to include the Lybian, Ethiopian, and Muslim Brotherhood-Egyptian forces as well.  [ More on all this later...]
