Twenty-five hundred odd years ago, the Hebrew prophet Isaiah prophesied of the destruction of Damascus. This prophecy is made more fascinating by the fact it remains unfulfilled in history. Damascus is the oldest continually inhabited city on earth. Although conquered many times, its status as an economic and cultural center of antiquity preserved it intact to this day. But Isaiah predicted Damascus would one day face utter destruction: &#8216;Behold, Damascus is about to be removed from being a city and it will become a fallen ruin,&#8217; he writes in Isaiah 17:1.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Bible prophecy doesn&#8217;t make allowances for a full-scale unconventional war of annihilation of Israel by Iran, however. Ezekiel predicts Iran&#8217;s participation of the Gog-Magog invasion as part of a Russian-led alliance, not a regional alliance with Syria. Both Iran and Israel are listed as participants in that future conflict.<br \/>\nBut Syria isn&#8217;t.<br \/>\nSyria isn&#8217;t numbered among any of the various protagonists prophesied to participate in the conflicts of the last days.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #990000;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">*Link to this article by Hal Lindsey was broken and I can no longer find the article on WND.<\/span><br \/>\n<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>* I think Hal Lindsey is correct in this clip quoted from his article that appeared on WND.
