Damascus is definitely identified as being totally destroyed in the scriptures but right now it's hard for me to feel things are happening that would result in the sudden and quick destruction of this city; unless the way we are needing to interpret this has to do with a longer term cycle of destructions leading to a final conclusion of eventual uninhabitable destruction.
Through Syria or Syria and Lebanon then by land or sea to Gaza, etc.And how did they do that without going through Israeli territory?
I am also praying that the destruction of Damascus comes after the Rapture. There are currently, 250,000 Eastern Orthodox Christians living in Damascus. I think that you may be correct and that the destruction of Damascus will happen as part of the invasion of Gog and Magog."we can be sure it’s sudden and massive."
If it's massive and sudden, then it's the Northern Invasion of Gog and Magog. I think Damascus will be hit at that time.
I've been wondering whether the world will notice the Isaiah 17 event, i've seen recent photos of the city and it pretty much looks 70-80% ruined already
Even if they do, how many would care, or care enough to do something about it?
Unfortunately, most people have "Middle East fatigue" since the trouble there has been around for a very long time.So true, a majority of people don't pay much attention to what goes on in the middle east in general.
LOL. I just came from the Instagram/Facebook thread and then reading this my first thought was it doesn’t sound much different. A lot of fakeness and deceit.Sadly, a lot of the so-called *good* news outlets ignore middle east or military/strategic news in general, and most of the *mainstream* media ignores, glosses over, or spins it for *the agenda* A variety of places with varying agendas and perspectives sensationalize everything so whatever they spew is *suspect* from the get-go.
A lot of important news is simply not getting out to most people, unless they are watching and know where to look. And some of those places are getting harder and harder to access freely, due to internet *neutrality,* pay walls, site requirements to accept harmful cookies and/or establish an account, etc., and blatant, outright censorship
When one flies from Tehran to Damascus the route is over Iraq, not IsraelAnd how did they do that without going through Israeli territory?
Saddam's Secrets: How an Iraqi General Defied and Survived Saddam HusseinAll it would take is one terrorist nuke/accident
Or a big enough storage facility of military munitions exploding (on purpose or accidentally from improper storage, etc.), especially if it caused other storage facilities or natural gas lines to go up
During Gulf War, Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD) (chemical, biological, and nuclear weapons/munitions/materials) allegedly evacuated across the border from Iraq into Syria and that's why U.S., etc. didn't find them in Iraq. Hiding them in Damascus, thereby using the entire civilian population of Damascus as human shields, not out of the realm of possibility. If this happened, more than likely at least some of it not properly stored and/or secured, so an accident or theft would not be unexpected.
Or there could be a military strike from any number of places/groups. Turkey, Iran, etc. Both are currently persecuting Christians. Russia, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Lebanon, ISIL, Hezbollah, and Yemen are all involved in the Syrian mess. Over half of the population of Syria has been displaced over the last 10 years, and millions are refugees in Jordan, Lebanon, and Turkey. Don't forget the Kurds, whose areas cross borders, and who are persecuted/attacked from all sides
It would take an entire book to explore and explain the situation over there right now, and by the time the first chapter were written, it would be out of date because everything changes on a daily/hourly basis.
Saddam's Secrets: How an Iraqi General Defied and Survived Saddam Hussein
by Georges Sada - 2006
He was one of Saddam's top generals and foremost military advisors. A truth-teller in a government that made the truth dangerous. A devout Christian in a Muslim country.
In his book he states "Well, I want to make it clear, very clear to everybody in the world that we had the weapon of mass destruction in Iraq, and the regime used them against our Iraqi people...I know it because I have got the captains of the Iraqi airway that were my friends, and they told me these weapons of mass destruction had been moved to Syria. Iraq had some projects for nuclear weapons but it was destroyed in 1981".
His book is available on Amazon
They may have called it "Yellow Rain" but in fact it was Mustard Gas which has a yellowish tint to it - it is a cytotoxin and blister agent which the Iraqis used against Iran and the Kurds during the 1980 to 1988 war. The Iranians started their own Biological/Chemical weapons program because of this. By the year 2002 a very extensive Iranian Biological Weapons-oriented infrastructure was revealed. Biological warfare agents, reportedly including anthrax, smallpox, plague, botulinum toxin and ricin toxin, have been serially manufactured and weaponized by Iran. The reason the US "Turned a blind eye" during that war was due to the fact that it was the US that supplied the Mustard GAs in the first place - how else do you think we knew Saddam had this stuff when we invaded in 2003 but what we did not know at that time was Saddam had moved that stuff moved to Syria before we invaded.The Iraqis and Iran have engaged in chemical warfare domestically and against each other for decades and decades. One of the most publicized was yellow rain. The Kurds and their sympathizers were on the receiving end from both countries. Yellow rain also showed up in southeast Asia

The "Yellow Rain" that was describe in Southeast Asia was in fact Bee Feces, swarms of bees gathered and it rained producing a sticky yellow substance on your skin which caused people to believe they were under a biological/chemical attack mostly over Laos and Cambodia -Analyses of putative "yellow rain" samples by the British, French and Swedish governments confirmed the presence of pollen and failed to find any trace of mycotoxins - see Christopher GW, Cieslak TJ, Pavlin JA, Eitzen EM (August 1997).

If you want to know whats really going on over there, always talk to a missionary that has spent many years in the region, they know things the so called news folks never heard of, I'd love to have a ham radio, it's another way to find out what's really happening...Sadly, a lot of the so-called *good* news outlets ignore middle east or military/strategic news in general, and most of the *mainstream* media ignores, glosses over, or spins it for *the agenda* A variety of places with varying agendas and perspectives sensationalize everything so whatever they spew is *suspect* from the get-go.

Maybe the chemical weapons stored in Damascus pollute the city so that it can never be occupied again.
