While the following is no surprise, its timing once again shows that Iran may be attacked relatively soon:
Saudi Arabia gives Israel clear skies to attack Iranian nuclear sitesThe Times, London – June 12, 2010 by Hugh TomlinsonSaudi Arabia has conducted tests to stand down its air defences to enable Israeli jets to make a bombing raid on Iran’s nuclear facilities, The Times can reveal.
In the week that the UN Security Council imposed a new round of sanctions on Tehran, defence sources in the Gulf say that Riyadh has agreed to allow Israel to use a narrow corridor of its airspace in the north of the country to shorten the distance for a bombing run on Iran.
To ensure the Israeli bombers pass unmolested, Riyadh has carried out tests to make certain its own jets are not scrambled and missile defence systems not activated. Once the Israelis are through, the kingdom’s air defences will return to full alert.
“The Saudis have given their permission for the Israelis to pass over and they will look the other way,” said a US defence source in the area. “They have already done tests to make sure their own jets aren’t scrambled and no one gets shot down. This has all been done with the agreement of the [US] State Department.” http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/world/middle_east/article7148555.ece
The truth is that Saudi Arabia and its Sunni allies (like Egypt) are likely to lead the final King of the South. Since Iran will not be the King of the South (though it may provide some significant support), it is likely that something (such as being attacked or having an internal problem) will weaken Iran before the end comes.
Two articles of possibly related interest may include:
The Arab World In the Bible, History, and Prophecy The Bible discusses the origins of the Arab world and discusses the Middle East in prophecy. What is ahead for the Middle East and those who follow Islam?
Is There A Future King of the South? Some no longer believe there needs to be. Might Egypt, Islam, Iran, Arabs, or Ethiopia be involved? What does the Bible say?
