Riots are expected to be a problem in the USA as well as the UK. Having lived through two major times of rioting in my lifetime, I would say that those not rioting feel a bit terrorized by them.

Terroristic troubles seem to be have something prophesied to affect the descendants of Israel in modern times if they did not obey God:

4 ‘But if you do not obey Me, and do not observe all these commandments, 15 and if you despise My statutes, or if your soul abhors My judgments, so that you do not perform all My commandments, but break My covenant,
16 I also will do this to you: I will even appoint terror over you, wasting disease and fever which shall consume the eyes and cause sorrow of heart. And you shall sow your seed in vain, for your enemies shall eat it.
17 I will set My face against you, and you shall be defeated by your enemies. Those who hate you shall reign over you, and you shall flee when no one pursues you.

18 ‘And after all this, if you do not obey Me, then I will punish you seven times more for your sins.
19 I will break the pride of your power; I will make your heavens like iron and your earth like bronze.
20 And your strength shall be spent in vain; for your land shall not yield its produce, nor shall the trees of the land yield their fruit. (Leviticus 26:14-20)

Riots and/or other forms of civil unrest will also likely happen on the continent of Europe, as well as elsewhere. Notice the following report about unemployment in Europe:

Eurozone Unemployment Soars to New High

PARIS — The 17-nation eurozone has started 2013 on a grim note, with new statistics showing November unemployment at an all-time high…

Roughly 19 million people living in the currency union are out of work, two million more than a year ago. Unemployment is highest in two of Europe’s most indebted economies, Spain and Greece, with more than a quarter of their populations out of work.

Austria, Luxembourg and Germany score the best, with the respective jobless rates at just 4.5 percent, 5.1 percent and 5.4 percent. France ranks roughly in the middle of the 17-nation currency union, with 10.7 percent unemployed in November, which is also the average for the entire 27-member European Union.

It is likely that the final King of the North (Daniel 11:22-43-44) will rise up because of economic and civil unrest, and the high unemployment rates in Europe may very well be part of the troubles that will lead to this.

Jesus foretold troubles as part of the beginning of sorrows:

8 For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be earthquakes in various places, and there will be famines and troubles. These are the beginnings of sorrows. (Mark 13:8)

3 When He opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature saying, “Come and see.” 4 Another horse, fiery red, went out. And it was granted to the one who sat on it to take peace from the earth, and that people should kill one another; and there was given to him a great sword. (Revelation 6:3-4)

.And riots and other forms of civil unrest will happen in the USA and UK, as well as on the continent of Europe.

But an even worse hour of trial is coming later (Revelation 3:10; Jeremiah 30:7).

As Jesus said:

37 And what I say to you, I say to all: Watch! (Mark 13:36-37)
