The Persian Gulf War, Al-Qaida, Osama bin Laden, The Ten Nation Kingdom, Russia

The vision Daniel recorded in chapter eight symbolized the Persian Gulf War, which
occurred between the USA and Iraq, the brake up of the Muslim kingdom resulting in the
emergence of the al-Queda network, Saudi Arabia, the nation within the kingdom of ten
nations that the first of the ten kings arose from and Osama bin Laden, who is the first of
the ten kings from among whom the man of lawlessness will arise. This war also marked
the beginning of the final period of indignation or the end of the end, which is centered
around the revealing of the man of lawlessness and the return of Jesus Christ. (Dan 8:19)
And he said, "Behold, I am going to let you know what will occur at the final period of the
indignation, for it pertains to the appointed time of the end.
The ram with the two horns depicted in Daniel 8:3 and explained in Dan 8:20
represented the kings of Media, which is Iraq and Persia, which is Iran. The smaller of the
two horns depicted in Dan 8:3, symbolized King Ayatollah Khomeini of Iran. The second
and longer horn that came up last, which symbolized the more powerful of the two kings,
was King Saddam Hussein of Iraq. (Dan 8:3) Then I lifted my gaze and looked, and behold,
a ram which had two horns was standing in front of the canal. Now the two horns were
long, but one was longer than the other, with the longer one coming up last.
(Dan 8:20) "The ram which you saw with the two horns represents the kings of Media and
Persia.
Daniel 8:4 portrayed Iran and Iraq butting northward and southward against each
other, westward against Israel and southward against Kuwait and Saudi Arabia. (Dan 8:4) I
saw the ram butting westward, northward, and southward, and no other beasts could
stand before him, nor was there anyone to rescue from his power; but he did as he
pleased and magnified himself.
The shaggy goat, which is referred to as the "kingdom of Greece" in Daniel 8:21, that
is depicted as coming from the west over the surface of the whole earth in Dan 8:5,
symbolized the USA and the many nations that joined with the US against Saddam
Hussein. The male goat, depicted as coming without touching the ground, portrayed the
air war that destroyed Saddam Hussein's military. The conspicuous horn between the
goat's eyes symbolized Saudi Arabia, which confounded fellow Muslim nations when they
permitted the USA, a non-Muslim, pro-Israel nation to use their land to stage the attack
against Iraq, a fellow Muslim and anti-Israel nation. The shaggy goat was called the
"kingdom of Greece" because during the time of Daniel it represented the unknown
western world. (Dan 8:21) "And the shaggy goat represents the kingdom of Greece, and
the large horn that is between his eyes is the first king. (Dan 8:5) While I was observing,
behold, a male goat was coming from the west over the surface of the whole earth without
touching the ground; and the goat had a conspicuous horn between his eyes.
Daniel 8:6-7 foretold of the USA and their many allies utterly destroying Iraq's
military while no other nation could rescue Saddam Hussein. (Dan 8:6-7) And he came up
to the ram that had the two horns, which I had seen standing in front of the canal, and
rushed at him in his mighty wrath. {7} And I saw him come beside the ram, and he was
enraged at him; and he struck the ram and shattered his two horns, and the ram had no
strength to withstand him. So he hurled him to the ground and trampled on him, and
there was none to rescue the ram from his power.
The male goat, depicted as magnifying himself exceedingly in Daniel 8:8, symbolized
the celebrations that occurred in the USA after the Persian Gulf War, which included the
renaming of certain military bases to reflect the USA's air superiority. While the USA
magnified it's self the large conspicuous horn that broke and the four conspicuous horns
that grew towards the four winds of heaven or through out the earth in its place portrayed
the break up of the Muslim Kingdom, of which Saudi Arabia is the center of worship, and
the emergence of four conspicuous dissident Muslim kingdoms that proliferated through
out the earth. One of these four conspicuous horns or dissident Muslim kingdoms, that
arose after the Persian Gulf War without the authority of the king of Saudi Arabia, as was
foretold in Dan 8:22, was Osama bin Laden's al-Queda. After the Persian Gulf War it was
Osama bin Laden who lead the break up of the Muslim kingdom when he aroused Saudi
Arabian groups who opposed King Fahd and expressed anger at him for allowing the USA
to use Saudi soil to launch an attack against Iraq. After bin Laden left Saudi Arabia in 1991
and went to Sudan King Fahd stripped bin Laden of his citizenship. A second of the four
conspicuous horns or dissident Muslim kingdoms became visible in 2006 when they
carried out the train bombing in Madrid, Spain. It was discovered that this dissident
Muslim kingdom was not part of al-Queda, but was and is committed to the same cause,
which is to overthrow Israel. A third conspicuous horn or dissident Muslim kingdom might
be the southeast Asian dissident Moslems who have been carrying out terrorist acts in
such countries as Indonesia. The four conspicuous horns or dissident Muslim kingdoms
are made up of terrorist groups that have proliferated throughout the world and can be
distinguished by their common cause and cooperation with one another when they commit
terrorist acts with al-Queda against the USA and Israel. (Dan 8:8) Then the male goat
magnified himself exceedingly. But as soon as he was mighty, the large horn was broken;
and in its place there came up four conspicuous horns toward the four winds of heaven.
(Dan 8:22) "And the broken horn and the four horns that arose in its place represent four
kingdoms which will arise from his nation, although not with his power.
Daniel 8:9 explains that the man of lawlessness, who is represented by the rather
small horn, will come out from among one of these four conspicuous or dissident Muslim
kingdoms and grow powerful in the south, east and the Beautiful Land, which is Israel.
(Dan 8:9) And out of one of them came forth a rather small horn which grew exceedingly
great toward the south, toward the east, and toward the Beautiful Land.
Dan 7:24 points out that the conspicuous horn or the conspicuous Muslim kingdom
that the rather small horn or the man of lawlessness arises from among is a kingdom
made up of ten nations out of which ten kings arise. (Dan 7:24) `As for ten horns, out of
this kingdom ten kings will arise; and another will arise after them, and he will be different
from the previous ones and will subdue three kings.
The large horn between the goats eyes described in Dan 8:21, which symbolized
Saudi Arabia, the nation that helped the USA in the Persian Gulf War, also symbolized the
nation that the first of the ten kings arose from and the king that arose from that nation.
The first of the ten dissident Muslim kings to arise, who was born in and who arose from
Saudi Arabia in 1991 was Osama bin Laden. (Dan 8:21) "And the shaggy goat represents
the kingdom of Greece, and the large horn that is between his eyes is the first king
Rev 17:12 further points towards Osama bin Laden as the first of the ten kings when
it describes the ten kings that the man of lawlessness arises from among as renegade
kings who do not rule over a country, but who will receive authority as kings when they
join with the beast or the seven heads forming the fourth and final beast, which arises just
before Jesus returns. (Rev 17:12) "The ten horns which you saw are ten kings who have
not yet received a kingdom, but they receive authority as kings with the beast for one
hour.
Dan 8:23 is referring to al-Queda, the Madrid, Spain bombing terrorist group and the
Southeast Asian group when it describes that the man of lawlessness will arise from one of
the four conspicuous horns or dissident Muslim kingdoms after they complete their
transgressions, which are the terrorist acts that these groups are committing against
Israel, the USA and those countries who dare to side with them. Some of these terrorist
acts, which began after the Persian Gulf War ended in 1991, include the attack on US
soldiers in Somalia in October 1993, which killed 18; the attack on the US Embassies in
Kenya and Tanzania in August 1998 which killed 224 and injured nearly 5,000; the
millennium-bombing plot targeting the Los Angeles airport; the attack on the USS Cole on
12 October 2000, in which 17 crew members were killed and 40 others injured; the plane-
bombing of the World Trade Center and the Pentagon on September 11, 2001 which killed
3000, the bombing of a night club in Indonesia and the Madrid, Spain train bombing. Dan
8:23 further tells us that when these four conspicuous horns or dissident Muslim
kingdoms complete their terrorist acts the man of lawlessness will arise from the
conspicuous horn or ten nation kingdom and the ten dissident kings that Osama bin
Laden and Saudi Arabia are a part of. (Dan 8:23) "And in the latter period of their rule,
When the transgressors have run their course, A king will arise Insolent and skilled in
intrigue.
In the light of the revelation that Saudi Arabia is one of the ten nations that make up
the kingdom of nations that the ten kings arise from and that Osama bin Laden is the first
of the ten kings to arise, when Hezbollah attacked Israel from Lebanon in August of 2006
the Holy Spirit gave me the insight that these dissident Moslem groups and the nations
that they arose from are also part of the ten nation kingdom that the ten kings arise from
and that the antichrist will arise from among. Without knowing the exact names by
revelation, we can figure out some of the other nine nations and the dissident Moslem
terrorist groups that arose from them, which are working side by side with Osama bin
Laden's terrorist group al-Queda and Saudi Arabia. Some of the other nine nations and the
terrorist groups that are part of the ten nation kingdom that the ten kings arise from and
the antichrist will arise from among soon, which are working with al-Queda, include
Hezbollah from Lebanon, Iran, Hammas from Jordon, Pakistan, Syria, Egypt, Yemen,
Turkey, and Iraq.
The picture above is described in Dan 8:8, 22-23 and Dan 7:24, which ties these
nations to Saudi Arabia and Osama bin Laden's al-Queda when they explain that these
nations make up a kingdom which is engaged in transgressions or terrorist acts against
Israel and the USA.
(Dan 8:8) Then the male goat magnified himself exceedingly. But as soon as he was
mighty, the large horn was broken; and in its place there came up four conspicuous horns
toward the four winds of heaven. (Dan 8:22-23) "And the broken horn and the four horns
that arose in its place represent four kingdoms which will arise from his nation, although
not with his power. 23 "And in the latter period of their rule, When the transgressors have
run their course, A king will arise Insolent and skilled in intrigue. Dan 7:24 `As for the ten
horns, out of this kingdom ten kings will arise; and another will arise after them, and he
will be different from the previous ones and will subdue three kings.
Dan 11:21-22 and Dan 9:27 further points towards the above named nations as that
kingdom of ten nations that the ten kings arise from and the antichrist arises from among,
when they explain that when the antichrist arises he will make and peace treaty with Israel
and these are the nations that are presently engaged in an escalating conflict with Israel. It
is also interesting to note that these nations are those nations that the dissident Muslims
with in them are causing them in varying degrees to shift towards Islamic governments,
which propagate Jihad to achieve their desires.
Dan 11:21-22 "In his place a despicable person will arise, on whom the honor of kingship
has not been conferred, but he will come in a time of tranquility and seize the kingdom by
intrigue. 22 "The overflowing forces will be flooded away before him and shattered, and
also the prince of the covenant. Dan 9:27 "And he will make a firm covenant with the many
for one week, but in the middle of the week he will put a stop to sacrifice and grain
offering; and on the wing of abominations will come one who makes desolate, even until a
complete destruction, one that is decreed, is poured out on the one who makes desolate."
It is easy to imagine, since no one has been able to stop Hammas and Hezbollah
from attacking Israel, that when the antichrist arises, as depicted in Dan 7:24, he will have
to subdue three of the ten renegade kings that are in charge of these terrorist groups in
order to implement his peace treaty with Israel.
Dan 7:24 `As for the ten horns, out of this kingdom ten kings will arise; and another will
arise after them, and he will be different from the previous ones and will subdue three
kings.
After being led to read William Branham's biography and a vision in which he was
shown that Russia is the King of the North and Daniel chapter eleven, which tells us that
the antichrist will take control of the kingdom of the North or Russia, I would like to add
that the Holy Spirit revealed to me that the fulfillment of the ten toes, which are made
partly of clay and partly iron through the seed of men, which portrays marriage, occurred
when Stalin came into power in the 1920s and those whose lives he sought to kill fled to
and married natives in the ten nations, which I mentioned above, that make up the ten
nation kingdom, which are represented by the ten toes symbolized in the vision of the
fourth and final beast that is recorded in Dan 2. The iron symbolizes those that fled
Russia, whose ancestors began returning after the USSR broke up, and the clay symbolized
those that they married in the ten nations to which they fled. When they returned to such
places as Chechnya, which is still under Russian control, they not only brought their
symbolically clay family members back with them, but they also brought their anti-Israel
views into Russia, which they became a part of because they were in those ten countries at
the time Israel became a nation in 1948 and the conflicts began.
Dan 2:41 "In that you saw the feet and toes, partly of potter's clay and partly of iron, it will
be a divided kingdom; but it will have in it the toughness of iron, inasmuch as you saw the
iron mixed with common clay. 42 "As the toes of the feet were partly of iron and partly of
pottery, so some of the kingdom will be strong and part of it will be brittle. 43 "And in
that you saw the iron mixed with common clay, they will combine with one another in the
seed of men; but they will not adhere to one another, even as iron does not combine with
pottery.
In the light of the tie between the returning Russians and the dissident Muslims in
the ten nations that they are returning from and Rev 17:11, which tells us that the
antichrist comes out of one of the seven heads, one of which is Russia and becomes the
eighth king that the woman sits on or rules over, I would like to point out that it is
possible for the antichrist to come out of one of the small countries that Russia is fighting
to maintain rule over, take control of Russia, as William Branham was shown and also
come out from among the ten renegade kings and their dissident terrorist Muslim groups
at the same time, as depicted in Dan 7:24 .
Rev 17:9 "Here is the mind which has wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains on
which the woman sits, 10 and they are seven kings; five have fallen, one is, the other has
not yet come; and when he comes, he must remain a little while. 11 "The beast which was
and is not, is himself also an eighth and is one of the seven, and he goes to destruction.
12 "The ten horns which you saw are ten kings who have not yet received a kingdom, but
they receive authority as kings with the beast for one hour. 13 "These have one purpose,
and they give their power and authority to the beast.
Dan 7:24 `As for the ten horns, out of this kingdom ten kings will arise; and another will
arise after them, and he will be different from the previous ones and will subdue three
kings.
In addition to this I would like to add that Russia is the head with the fatal wound
that will be healed as described in Rev 13:3.
Rev. 13:1 And the dragon stood on the sand of the seashore. Then I saw a beast coming
up out of the sea, having ten horns and seven heads, and on his horns were ten diadems,
and on his heads were blasphemous names. 2 And the beast which I saw was like a
leopard, and his feet were like those of a bear, and his mouth like the mouth of a lion. And
the dragon gave him his power and his throne and great authority. 3 I saw one of his
heads as if it had been slain, and his fatal wound was healed. And the whole earth was
amazed and followed after the beast;
Jesus' return is closer than we think and He still calling everyone who has not
believed to believe that He died and arose again from our death penalty for us. By our
belief in Jesus Christ we are baptized into His death and resurrection from the dead and
having died with Christ through our belief we are pardoned from having to die the second
death, which is forever at the end of the age. (John 3:16) "For God so loved the world, that
He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have
eternal life.
