Russia's Putin Heading to Iran (Persia)

Remember, lots of prophecy watchers believe that Russia is the land of Magog mentioned in Ezekiel 38 and 39.  Of course we don't KNOW that for sure, but it is worth watching.

However, Ezekiel 38-39 go on to talk about Persia joining Magog and other North African nations to plan an annihilation of Israel...and we can be 100% certain that Persia IS Iran.

So it is MOST INTERESTING to read about the leader of Russia going to make friends with the new leader of Iran.

(Washington, D.C.) — On August 3rd, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad will officially step down as the President of Iran. He will be replaced by Hassan Rouhani, though the Islamic Republic will still ultimately be ruled by the so-called “Supreme Leader,” the Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.

A few days later, the leader of Russia will arrive in Tehran on a formal state visit. He will come to discuss the Iranian nuclear program and to strengthen the Russian-Iranian alliance. It will likely be the first state visit of the new Rouhani regime and it will be interesting to see what comes of it.

“Russian leader Vladimir Putin will meet Iran’s newly elected president in Tehran next month to discuss restarting talks on the Islamic Republic’s nuclear program,” reports Reuters, based on Russian and Iranian media reports. “The Russian newspaper Kommersant quoted a source close to the Iranian Foreign Ministry as saying President Putin would visit on August 12, days after Hassan Rouhani is inaugurated. Iran’s Mehr news agency said Putin would travel to Iran on August 16, without citing a source. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov declined comment on the reports.”

This will be the second time Putin has traveled to Iran. The first was a two day trip on October 16-17, 2007.

Make no mistake....Putin IS setting himself up to be a Czar.  He is punishing newspapers that don't toe his line and even having rivals put in jail who have the nerve to publicly disagree with him.

He wants to rebuild Mother Russia...and maybe one day soon he will get hooks put in his mouth by God Almighty himself.

⁴ I (God) will turn you around, put hooks in your jaws and bring you out with your whole army—your horses, your horsemen fully armed, and a great horde with large and small shields, all of them brandishing their swords. ⁵ Persia, Cush^[c] and Put will be with them, all with shields and helmets, ⁶ also Gomer with all its troops, and Beth Togarmah from the far north with all its troops—the many nations with you.
