Nigel Farage: ‘The European project is actually beginning to die.’

Nigel Farage (Dweller)

Nigel Farage made some comments at the EU parliament related to Greece and Europe:

NIGEL FARAGE: Thank you. What we’re seeing in this chamber this morning and indeed across the whole of Europe is an irreconcilable cultural difference between Greece and Germany. A split between the North and the South of Europe. The European project is actually beginning to die. Nobody in this room will recognise that the peoples of Europe are saying, we were never asked whether we want in this. This has been foisted upon on us and we need to understand why the EMU doesn’t work. Those monsters Kohl and Mitterrand, backed up by the clever but dangerous Delors believed that if they put in place an economic and monetary union then as night follows day, there would be political union and there would be an acceptance of this project and the North and South of Europe would converge. That we would all start to love each other and we would all start to feel a European identity, that we would all start to show allegiance to the flag and the anthem.

Those, of course, that criticised this were told we were extremists and we lacked vision. Well one vision we didn’t lack is we understood the countries of Europe are different and if you try to force together different people and different economies without first seeking the consent of those people it is unlikely to work and the plan has failed. This isn’t just Greece we’re talking about today, the whole of the Med now finds itself in the wrong currency and yet virtually nobody in the political arena has the courage to stand up and say that. Indeed, I feel that the continent is now divided from North to South, there is a new Berlin wall and it is called the euro. The old enmities have been resumed. Just listen to the way the German leader of the CDU group this morning attacked Mr Tsipras. He was actually disgusting but it shows the way North and South feel about each other.

Mr Tsipras, your country should never have joined the euro, I think you acknowledge that. But the big banks, big business and big politics forced you in. Goldmans Sachs, the German arms manufacturers, they were all very happy when the bailouts began. They weren’t for the Greek people, those bailouts were for French, German and Italian banks. They haven’t helped you at all. These years of austerity, years of high employment and increasing poverty, none of it’s worked. In fact, your debt GDP ratio has gone from 100 percent at the start of the crisis to 180 percent right now. It would be madness sir, to continue on this course.

You have been very brave. You called that referendum. When one of your predecessors tried to do the same the bully boys in Brussels had him removed. They tried their best again, Mr Juncker said you would have to leave the Euro and leave the EU. Even Mr Schulz, the president of the parliament, who one would have thought might have been neutral, said that if the Greeks voted no then power supplies might even go down. There were threats and bullying but the Greeks stood firm. But sir, you cannot have your cake and eat it. They will give you no more these people. They cannot afford to, if they give you more they have to give other Eurozone members more.

So your moment has come, and frankly if you have the courage you should lead the Greek people out of the Eurozone with your head held high. Get back your democracy; get back control of your country. Give your people the leadership and the hope that they crave. Yes it will be tough in the first few months but with a devalued currency and with friends of Greece all over the world, you will recover. http://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2015/07/08/ukips_nigel_farage_your_moment_is_here_greece_take_back_your_country.html

While it is true that there are major differences between parts of Europe, and that they naturally do not seem to go together, the Bible predicted that, but also said that it would be together for a time. Notice what the prophet Daniel was inspired to record:

41 Whereas you saw the feet and toes, partly of potter’s clay and partly of iron, the kingdom shall be divided; yet the strength of the iron shall be in it, just as you saw the iron mixed with ceramic clay. 42 And as the toes of the feet were partly of iron and partly of clay, so the kingdom shall be partly strong and partly fragile. 43 As you saw iron mixed with ceramic clay, they will mingle with the seed of men; but they will not adhere to one another, just as iron does not mix with clay. (Daniel 2:41-43)

So although Nigel Farage has a point that there are cultural differences between parts of Europe, the Bible shows that a group will be together there despite the differences.

Perhaps it should also be mentioned that people from the UK, like Nigel Farage, are really upsetting the EU leadership. And in particular, Nigel Farage has been doing that for years. Here is something related to that:

Nigel Farage wasn’t shy about showing his support for the Greek people when he brought a pillar-box red ‘oxi’ placard, the banner of the Greek no vote, into the European Parliament.

The Ukip leader and MEP kept the banner on his desk, until Jean-Claude Junker, the European Commission president, confiscated it while he was looking the other way.

The Ukip leader took to Twitter to reassure his followers the banner was later returned. http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/the-time-nigel-farage-thought-the-greece-crisis-was-a-big-joke-10375198.html

While Nigel Farage does not represent the views of most currently in the UK, the reality is that the leadership of the European Union has long had problems with the UK and Nigel Farage is, in their apparent view, a relatively rude reminder that the UK does not fully share the agenda of the EU.

While the current political talk is focused on a potential ‘Grexit’–Greek exit from the Eurozone, there is underlying concern that a ‘Brexit’–a British exit from the entire European Union could happen if those in the UK get to vote on it as their Prime Minster David Cameron has promised.

Let me state here that no matter what happens in the short run, Greece will end up supporting the final European Beast power, while the UK will one day be taken over and divided by it (Joel 3:2-3; Lamentations 4:36; Daniel 11:39).

The ‘European project’ is NOT about to die. However, the Bible does speak of it undergoing three reorganizations in Revelation 17, and it will end up looking different than it does now (see also Must the Ten Kings of Revelation 17:12 Rule over Ten Currently Existing Nations?).

Despite Nigel Farage’s views, in time, the Bible shows that the final European Beast power will reorganize, arise, become a successful military power, and surprise many (Revelation 13:1-4).

Must the Ten Kings of Revelation 17:12 Rule over Ten Currently Existing Nations? Some claim that these passages refer to a gathering of 10 currently existing nations together, while one group teaches that this is referring to 11 nations getting together. Is that what Revelation 17:12-13 refers to? The ramifications of misunderstanding this are enormous.
