NATO Concerned that Terrorists May Rule in Libya after Qaddafi

Muammar al-Gaddafi

Libya is apparently transitioning:

Libya could fall into hands of extremists, Nato warns

The warning came in an exclusive interview with The Daily Telegraph as Muammar Gaddafi’s loyalist forces stepped up a fightback on three fronts. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/africaandindianocean/libya/8758553/Libya-could-fall-into-hands-of-extremists-Nato-warns.html

Colonel Muammar Gaddafi, in the past, was definitely considered a terrorist and his regime’s involvement with destroying the Pan-Am flight 103 over Locherbie, Scotland and killing 259 people is well known.

So, is Libya going to go from one leading terrorist to multiple ones? We will see.

Right now, Colonel Gaddafi is not in charge of Libya.

Libya has somewhat of an interim leader:

The idea of interim leaders that will ultimately be replaced by allegiance to the coming final King of the South, in nations such as Libya, is something that I have written about for some time. Notice, for example, something from my March 25, 2011 post titled Muslim Brotherhood Gaining Influence in Egypt:

We in the Living Church of God (LCG) expect a pan-Arabic leader. Here is a recent LCG writing from Wyatt Ciesielka that demonstrate this:

The fact is that food prices, the Muslim Brotherhood or any number of other political or religious factors are only contributing reasons for the current Arab-world turmoil. The underlying reason is that the Almighty Creator God is allowing geopolitics to align according to His will, and according to His time! Scripture is clear that God supremely reigns over all nations and all empires (2 Chronicles 20:6, Daniel 4:25), and He sometimes allows demonic principalities to influence people, nations, and rulers (Daniel 10:20, Ephesians 6:12).

Is the current Arab crisis setting the stage for a future king of the South? While the timing is entirely up to God, the simple answer is that yes, Arab geopolitics are moving ahead exactly as Bible prophecy has long foretold! Read more

The timing seems to be right for such a leader to start rising up. The events in primarily Sunni Egypt, Lebanon, Algeria, Tunisia, Libya, Jordan, and Yemen seem to be setting the stage of the Arabic peoples to be willing to consider some type of confederation with a strong leader to represent them.–but there may be interim governments first. Even Syria is having significant problems.

Libya is mentioned specifically in Bible prophecy (Daniel 11:40-43) and hence it will support the final King of the South, a caliph-type Imam Mahdi, that many in the Arab & Islamic world will also support. And that leader will relatively soon rise up (though some nations may likely have several “interim” and/or semi-permanent leaders).

I expect that terroristic activities will be part of the actions of this final King of the South (cf. Leviticus 26:16), and that such actions will directly affect the Anglo-descended nations like the USA, UK, Canada, Australia, and/or New Zealand (Psalm 83:2-8). The Arab Spring and Summer has not really seemed to dim the hopes of Islamic terrorists (though perhaps somewhat in Syria, and even that may change).

Watch (cf. Mark 13:33-37).
