" Thus saith the Lord GOD; It shall also come to pass, that at the same time shall things come into thy mind, and thou shalt think an evil thought: And thou shalt say, I will go up to the land of unwalled villages; I will go to them that are at rest, that dwell safely, all of them dwelling without walls, and having neither bars nor gates, To take a spoil, and to take a prey; to turn thine hand upon the desolate places that are now inhabited, and upon the people that are gathered out of the nations, which have gotten cattle and goods, that dwell in the midst of the land."
~ Ezekiel 38:10-12 KJV

In 2009 a large natural gas field was discovered off the coast of Israel in the Mediterranean Sea. Israel has territorial rights to at least a good part of it under the 1982 UN Law of The Sea Convention though Israel never signed it which is understandable considering the historical bias of the United Nations against Israel. Lebanon did sign it and they claim the field extends into their waters. Israel has already begun tapping into the field while Lebanon has not. I read an article a few years ago that said Russia is seeking dominance over the supply of natural gas to Europe. Russia no doubt covets this reserve and also maintains a naval base in Syria. So I expect that a major dispute will arise sooner or later between Israel and her enemies over this natural gas field. For more info here is a link to a Wikipedia article on the Tamar gas field: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tamar_gas_field

Yes, it is Mikael. Nothing has really changed much in the former Soviet Union since the Cold War. I always thought that talk of glasnost and perestroika was a lot of propaganda to deceive the West and to lull us to sleep. I believe that they have succeeded to a great extent in doing that even to the point of the American people electing a Marxist to the office of President of the United States. That Bear, however, has been awake and never hibernates.
Along with the natural gas field there is also the potential of oil fields being discovered in Israel. The founder and CEO of Zion Oil & Gas company is a Bible-believing Christian and bases his speculation on Scripture, particularly Dueteronomy 33:24. The oil-rich Arab states in the Middle East will not stand for Israel achieving energy independence and also becoming a competitor in the world market.
What is the "spoil " or the "prey" which Gog-Magog alliance comes to the land of Israel to try and take? What wealth does Israel have that they want? I can't think of anything else but energy resources. Oil is wealth in the Middle East by today's standards.

Thank you for the link, Martin. That's an interesting article too. I didn't know about the Leviathan gas field discovered in 2010 or this third one.

As for the atheistic leaders of Russia, you can't really expect anything but evil thoughts by those who don't know God and don't even believe He exists. The God of Israel will one day show them who He is, and soon, I believe.
