Russian Military Arrives in Syria

Thousands of innocents are dying in Syria...the Arab nations are too weak and scared to do anything about it...the West continues to draw up plans to save the innocents...and Russia has vetoed the United Nation's resolution to stop the violence.  So what's next?  Remember, the Russians have a new naval base in Syria and they are not going to watch it fall to the latest round of The Arab Spring.

A Russian military unit has arrived in Syria, according to Russian news reports, a development that a United Nations Security Council source told ABC News was "a bomb" certain to have serious repercussions.

Russia, one of President Bashar al-Assad's strongest allies despite international condemnation of the government's violent crackdown on the country's uprising, has repeatedly blocked the United Nations Security Council's attempts to halt the violence, accusing the U.S. and its allies of trying to start another war.

Now the Russian Black Sea fleet's Iman tanker has arrived in the Syrian port of Tartus on the Mediterranean Sea with an anti-terror squad from the Russian Marines aboard according to the Interfax news agency. The Assad government has insisted it is fighting a terrorist insurgency.

What could be more natural?  Assad is killing thousands of women and children calling them all "terrorists" and he requests help from crack Russian troops to put down the "insurgency"?

Makes perfect sense!

For Bible readers though...we know this is simply one step closer to the war predicted in Ezekiel 38.

Are we all wide awake and listening for the trumpet?
