Sarkozy Warns Against EU Failure
Nicolas Sarkozy
The president of France is advocating more European Union involvement in the Middle East:

Brussels, Belgium (CNN) — European leaders must band together to save the euro this week, the leaders of the eurozone’s two biggest economies said Thursday, even as the head of the European Central Bank was warning of more bad economic times ahead.
Failure to reach an agreement at a summit in Brussels, Belgium, is a “luxury we cannot afford,” French President Nicolas Sarkozy said.
“This is our duty. We have no other choice,” he said, warning that the European Union would not get a second chance. http://edition.cnn.com/2011/12/08/business/europe-debt-summit/?hpt=hp_t1
The Bible tells of a basically European kingdom that will be partially strong, partially weak, and with a fragile unity (Daniel 11:41-43). The Bible also tells of a time when a European power will reorganize (Revelation 17:12-13) and take various steps that will be against the true Christians as well as the representatives of a compromised form of religion (Revelation 17:14-18), and that Jesus will finally overcome this power (Revelation 17:14).
While I do not believe that we are to the point of fulfilling the reorganization required by Revelation 17:12-13 (there may need to be more civil unrest, riots, etc. first), it seems that a variety of steps will be necessary for the final reorganization to occur. Some of those steps may even be taking place in high level meetings in Europe taking place today and tomorrow. Some of those steps, especially if they involve austerity/budget cuts, may stir violent protests in the future. Violent protests can lead to militaristic leaders rising up, and a major militaristic leader rising up is consistent with biblical prophecy (cf. Daniel 11:39-44; Revelation 13:3-4).
Many events are aligning with Bible prophecy. Jesus said to watch (Mark 13:33-37; Luke 21:36).
