GI: The EU Courts the Arab League; COGwriter: This will not end well

The Gatestone Institute (GI) reported the following:

The EU Courts the Arab League

The first summit between the European Union (EU) and the Arab League, formally known as the League of Arab States (LAS), took place on February 24-25. “Europeans and Arabs have a long and rich history of cultural, economic, commercial and political exchanges. This, together with the geographical proximity and interdependence, has contributed to institutionalise a strong relationship between the EU and the League of Arab States (LAS). Within this framework, the common aim is to develop closer cooperation to realise their shared aspirations to ensure peace, security and prosperity in both regions,” the website of the European Union announced.

“The summit marked the start of a new dialogue between the EU and the LAS. Leaders committed to hold EU-LAS summits regularly, with the next summit set to take place in Brussels in 2022” according to the EU press release, which also included President of the European Council, Donald Tusk’s statement that, “There are differences between us. But we face common challenges and have shared interests. We need to cooperate and not leave it to global powers far from our region.”

Tusk referred to the values gap between the states of the Arab League and those of the European Union as “differences between us”. Such euphemisms however, do not explain the evident lack of even the pretense, on the part of the EU, to comply with its own stated human rights policies.

“The European Union,” the EU professes, “is based on a strong commitment to promoting and protecting human rights… Human rights are at the heart of EU relations with other countries… EU policy includes, among other things:

promoting the rights of women, children, minorities and displaced persons

opposing the death penalty, torture, human trafficking and discrimination

inclusion of human rights clauses in all agreements on trade or cooperation with non-EU countries”.

“We’ve been witnessing a spike in gross human rights violations across the Arab region, including in extrajudicial executions, enforced disappearances, arbitrary detentions, and torture and other ill-treatment,” observed Said Benarbia, the MENA Programme Director of the International Commission of Jurists, recently. “The region is in dire need of a credible and independent judicial mechanism to provide justice for human rights violations, the overwhelming majority of which presently go unaddressed,” he added.

According to the International Commission of Jurists, “Many States in the region are plagued by widespread and systematic violations. These range from torture, enforced disappearance and arbitrary detentions in Egypt, attacks against human rights defenders and journalists in Saudi Arabia… as well as the judicial harassment of human rights defenders and political activists throughout the region”.

At the EU-LAS summit in Egypt, the parties agreed to, “Embark on a new era of cooperation and coordination; confident that strengthened interaction between the member states of LAS and EU has great potential to enhance the stability, prosperity, and well-being of the two regions and the world at large…”

The EU-LAS cooperation also promises to include, “the upholding of all aspects of international human rights law”, but how and for whom remains a question. The formulation, therefore, can hardly be seen as anything but a sugar coating for the EU’s evident disregard for its own stated principles. 05/07/19 https://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/14188/eu-courts-arab-league

So, basically GI is pushing the view that the Arab League should be chastised by the EU for human rights matters, but that the EU is ignoring many of them.

That is not really a surprise.

Furthermore, the prophetic reality is that the Bible shows that a leader of the Europeans and a leader of the Arabs will one day get together to make a lying deal:

27 Both these kings’ hearts shall be bent on evil, and they shall speak lies at the same table; but it shall not prosper, for the end will still be at the appointed time. (Daniel 11:27)

The “kings” mentioned above are the coming European King of the North and Arabic King of the South (cf. Daniel 11:40).

It is not that they will not ever have positive outcomes, but ultimately they will not only lie to each other, but also attack each other:

40 “At the time of the end the king of the South shall attack him; and the king of the North shall come against him like a whirlwind, with chariots, horsemen, and with many ships; and he shall enter the countries, overwhelm them, and pass through. 41 He shall also enter the Glorious Land, and many countries shall be overthrown; but these shall escape from his hand: Edom, Moab, and the prominent people of Ammon. 42 He shall stretch out his hand against the countries, and the land of Egypt shall not escape. 43 He shall have power over the treasures of gold and silver, and over all the precious things of Egypt; also the Libyans and Ethiopians shall follow at his heels. (Daniel 11:40-43)

So, as Daniel 11:40 clearly points out, war will come between the Europeans and the Arabs. We also made a video on that before:

15:34

War is Coming Between Europeans and Arabs

Is war really coming between the Arabs and the Europeans? What does Bible prophecy say about that? Do the Central Europeans (Assyria in prophecy) make a deal with the Arabs that will hurt the USA and its Anglo-Saxon allies? Do Catholic or Islamic prophecies discuss a war between Europe and Islam? If so, what is the sequence of events that the Bible reveals? Who does the Bible, Catholic, and Islamic prophecy teach will win such a war?

Here is a link to our video: War is Coming Between Europeans and Arabs.

At the summit in February, there was a also a distancing of the Arab League and EU from the US related to Jerusalem (see ‘EU, Arab League forge connections at first desert summit’). And in March 2019, both the EU and the Arab League condemned US recognition under the Trump Administration of Israel’s Golan Heights’ position (seeEU rejects US recognition of Israeli control of the Golan Heights–a prelude to Daniel 9:27? and Arab League summit condemns Trump administration’s Golan Heights policy).

Mutual distaste for the USA will be a factor that will temporarily drive the Europeans and Arabs together.

And this will not end well for the USA (Daniel 11:39), nor ultimately the Arab world (Daniel 11:40-43) nor even the Europeans (cf. Daniel 11:44-45).

The Bible also tells of other deals between the Europeans and the nations of the Middle East and North Africa.

Notice two of them:

26 … And the people of the prince who is to come
Shall destroy the city and the sanctuary.
The end of it shall be with a flood,
And till the end of the war desolations are determined.
27 Then he shall confirm a covenant with many for one week;
But in the middle of the week
He shall bring an end to sacrifice and offering.
And on the wing of abominations shall be one who makes desolate,
Even until the consummation, which is determined,
Is poured out on the desolate. (Daniel 9:26-27)

3 They have taken crafty counsel against Your people,
And consulted together against Your sheltered ones.
4 They have said, “Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation,
That the name of Israel may be remembered no more.”

5 For they have consulted together with one consent;
They form a confederacy against You:
6 The tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites;
Moab and the Hagrites;
7 Gebal, Ammon, and Amalek;
Philistia with the inhabitants of Tyre;
8 Assyria also has joined with them;
They have helped the children of Lot. (Psalms 83:3-8)

So, two deals are discussed. The first is a type of peace deal–and that will bring TEMPORARY PEACE. But the other one involves destruction and “crafty counsel.”

Now it should be mentioned that other than Assyria (which refers to part of Europe; see Germany’s Assyrian Roots Throughout History) the nations listed in both Psalm 83 and Daniel 11:41-43 are those in the Middle East and North Africa, and that the reference to Edom is a reference to Turkey. They are part of an end time confederation called in the Bible the King of the South. The Beast of the Sea in Revelation 13:1-4, is a European power (cf. Daniel 9:26-27), and is called the King of the North in Daniel 11:40.

Temporary cooperation between the Europeans and the Arab League & Turkey is prophesied in the Bible. US President Donald Trump is a factor in them cooperating more.

Anyway, as mentioned, the Bible shows the Arabs and Europeans will make a deceitful deal in Daniel 11:27 as well as a destructive deal in Psalm 83:3-8. The deal in Psalm 83:3-8 will not end well for the USA nor its British-descended allies (Daniel 11:39;USA in Prophecy: The Strongest Fortresses). The deal in Daniel 11:27 will not end well for the King of the South (Daniel 11:40-43).

We are getting closer to the time of these deals.

Trump Presidency Magic 8 Ball or Bible Prophecy? BBC reported that one might as well use a ‘Magic Eight-Ball’ to try to predict what will happen in the remaining time of Donald Trump’s presidency. What is a ‘Magic Eight-Ball’? Dr. Thiel not only explains that, but also briefly goes over 10 biblically-based warnings he wrote would happen if Donald Trump were elected that have already began to come to pass. He also goes over something he wrote back in 2008 that the Trump presidency is also helping lead to fulfillment. Should you trust Bible prophecy or not?
