I see no other alternative, and we know how it will all turn out eventually, but it's still a bit frightening to recognize. Trump's tough stand against Russia, and Putin, has to be done. We have to resist his despotic moves internationally, which he is fomenting in order to take the attention of his peoples' eyes off of the decrepit state of his country's economy. South Carolina Senator, Lindsey Graham said, on FOX NEWS, that Russia's economy was little more than a corner gas station, with the implication that Putin will soon capitulate under the pressure of increased sanctions. Well, it seems to me that Putin has two choices, at least as he would view it.
Capitulation is one option, in which he would quietly begin to behave himself, internationally. But I don't see this as an option that Putin would find tempting, especially with his demonstrably massive ego!!! He seems to be the kind of person who is obsessively determined to always be in charge, no matter the consequences.
I guess you know what I think he will consider to be his second option: The "Gog/Magog" invasion of the Middle-East, with the ultimate goal of invading, and capturing the Gulf States' oil fields, and squeezing the western countries dry with an embargo, followed by outrageous prices once he restarts the flow of oil, under Russian control. His ego is frightening to consider, if we didn't already know that God is going to use this as an opportunity to demonstrate his power in defeating those who go against His Chosen People, Israel; which Putin will indirectly do, by sending his Muslim allies against Israel. Israel is the only Middle -East country that could disrupt his move against the Gulf State Emirates, which they certainly would do, unless they are neutralized. The Muslims hate Israel so much, that they will gladly try to do just that. Fortunately, God will defeat them first, and then drive them back, in a panicked retreat, which Russia will try, unsuccessfully, to resist!!!
Even with the fore-knowledge of the ultimate conclusion of this invasion, it is still frightening to think that anyone could be so meglo-maniacle as to believe he could actually pull off such a plan! But, I guess Satan has an almost unlimited capacity to delude those who don't believe there is a God who is ultimately in control of the universe. And when you seek to harm His Chosen People, Israel, you are essentially poking your finger in the "apple of God's eye"!!!
