Evil Mountain

Article by Paul McGuire

There have been many prohectic words in the past two decades regarding a coming conflict between Russia and the USA. How does this line up with Biblical prophecy, and just as important… why is the United States absent from the end times scenario?

It appears a war is about to erupt between Israel and Iran, that will involve other nations. At this point, it is difficult to determine if this is the Ezekiel 38 War. However, Russia which is a key nation in Ezekiel 38, presents a serious threat to the U.S. Israel and other nations.

In the Ezekiel 38 scenario, Russia, Iran and an alliance of Muslim nations will invade Israel in the last days. The ancient name for Russia was Rosh. The ancient Sarmatians known as Rashu, Rasapu, Ros and Rus inhabited an area, which is now known as Southern Russia. The name Magog refers to what is now known as Central Asia and Russia. The ancient Scythians are now the Islamic southern republics of the former Soviet Union, which has a population of over 60 million Muslims. This could possibly include Afghanistan and Southern Russia. The ancient people of Tubal include what are now Turkey, Southern Russia and Iran. Persia is now known as Iran, derived from the term Aryan. The other nine proper names in Ezek 38:1-7 are specific geographical locations: Magog, Rosh, Meshech, Tubal, Persia, Cush, Put, Gomer, and Beth-togarmah

Russia has approximately 10,000 to 15,000 anti-ballistic missiles in its defense system. Large numbers of these missiles have computer guidance systems that are programmed to hit specific targets in the United States. What if Russian anti-ballistic missiles come down like rain and nukes go off in Chicago, Los Angeles, New York City, San Francisco, Denver or Dallas? Is the Cold War really over? If it is, why did Russia’s Prime Minister publicly announce plans to significantly buildup the Russian military? According to a Washington Post article by Will Englund, entitled, “Putin Promises Russian Military Buildup,” “Vladimir Putin laid out his ambitious plans … for modernizing and strengthening Russia’s defense forces over the next decade, in the face of a threatening world and a powerful United States.”

“For Russia to feel secure and for our partners to listen carefully to what our country has to say,” he wrote, Moscow must spend about $775 billion for new armaments and a more professional military.”

For decades Russia has been building up a vast network of underground bunkers and nuclear blast shelters. Some military experts secretly believe that Russia is secretly preparing for World War III. Other intelligence experts are speculating that Russia may be planning a future attack on the United States. The Russians have been storing grain, foodstuffs, gold, and oil and diesel fuel. Russian underground bunkers can store 326 million tons of grain, and their military can store up another 80 million tons of grain.

Before the Soviet Union fell, the Russian military believed that it could be possible to win a nuclear war with America, and so they have prepared for it. Russia continues to prepare for the possibility of nuclear war with the United States. Since the 1960’s the Russians have been building underground cities in case of nuclear war. Russia has a giant underground complex the size of Washington D.C., called “Evil Mountain,” or Yamantau Mountain. The purpose of “Evil Mountain” and other complexes is to enable the Russian elite to survive a nuclear war.

The Russian military is drafting by the fall, at least 50 thousand men to join the Russian army. Russia is also setting up new naval bases, including bases in Vietnam and Cuba. In 1962, President John F. Kennedy, during the Cuban Missile Crisis, demanded that Russia stop building nuclear missiles from Cuba.

A Russian Akula-class cruise-missile attack submarine recently transited the North Atlantic Ocean and operated undetected in the Gulf of Mexico. The United States did not discover this until after the submarine left. In 2009, Russia sent an attack submarine to patrol close to U.S. shores. In contrast, America under President Reagan had a 600-ship Navy. Today, America’s Navy has only 285 ships.

Russian military doctrine is primarily focused on a large scale conventional war, with NATO and China. However, a conflict with the U.S., over Israel and Iran, could lead to an accidental thermonuclear war. For example, a conflict with Iran involving Israel could lead to a military conflict in the Strait of Hormuz. The conflict may start out as conventional warfare, and this conventional warfare could “accidentally” become a regional thermonuclear war. The regional thermonuclear war could pull in the Islamic nations, NATO, and China. In a worst case scenario, the regional thermonuclear war becomes a global thermonuclear war. In this scenario, America could be hit with multiple nukes in major U.S. cities.

The U.S., Russia, Israel, Iran, India and China are selling arms to various nations. During World War I and World War II, the international bankers sold arms to both sides and made a fortune. A number of these banking dynasties are in the Federal Reserve. The international financial empires behind the drive to a one world government, one world economic system and one world religion, might use a regional thermonuclear war to bring in their one world government and economic system. I expose this in my 3-DVD series, “Are You Ready?” People in the U.S. and around the world would support this, if it meant peace and the prevention of a global thermonuclear war.

The new military buildup in Russia, along with Iran, Israel and the Middle East, seem to indicate an eventual Ezekiel 38 scenario, where Russia, Iran and an alliance of Middle Eastern nations invade Israel. Prior to an Ezekiel 38 scenario, Russia could strike the U.S. with nuclear missiles. Remember we have disarmed and discussions like the Salt I, II and III treaties, have made us more vulnerable to a Russian attack.

America has significantly had its military superiority reduced. The possibility of a Russian nuclear attack is not as far off, as one might think.
