On the 28th of February, last Saturday, the US and Israel launched airstrikes on major Iranian cities, including Tehran AND Isfahan among others. They targeted air defences, missile units and suspected nuclear weapons related facilities. The US have claimed to have hit nearly 3000 targets and destroyed 17 naval vessels. And most importantly of all, the supreme leader of Iran was killed in the initial strikes along with at least 40 other high ranking officials. Reports have come out over the past week of how traffic cameras in Tehran were hacked by Israel and used to track the movements of Khomanei in order to pinpoint his whereabouts before the strike. The Jerusalem Post has reported that in the full week of fighting, 6500 bombs have been dropped in Iran by the IDF.

Israel and the United States are at war with Iran with the first strikes resulting in the death of the Islamic leader the Ayatollah Ali Khamenei with reports of as many as forty of the top leaders in Iran.  The Israeli Air Force conducts its largest-ever attack as over 200 aircraft strike 500 targets in Iran, and the US attacked over 900 sites in the first twelve hours.

Recent news reports show that Europe is preparing for greater military independence from the United States, raising the possibility of a significant shift in NATO’s structure. Bible prophecy in Ezekiel 38 and Revelation 17 describes a latter-day European confederacy aligned with a northern power identified with Russia, while Britain and the United States stand apart. These geopolitical developments represent steps toward the prophetic arrangement Scripture outlines.

Rising global tensions and the expiry of the START treaty have revived Cold-War-level fears of nuclear conflict, reflected in the Doomsday Clock moving closer to “midnight.” Geopolitical rivalry, especially over Greenland, is shifting global power dynamics, weakening alliances like NATO, and eroding the post-WWII “rules-based order.” Biblical prophecy assures us the world will not be destroyed by nuclear war, but Europe must be divorced from America and placed under Russian control.
