@IslandMan
The view you are expressing is called the "preterist" view. It teaches that the apocalyptic language is describing the struggles of early Christianity with Judaism. While not as popular as the "futurist" view, it does have a logic to it that I think gets overlooked far too much.

johnamos,
Yes, there are many interesting points made. What I find most interesting is that when this video was published 18 months ago, they had no way of knowing that Iran would be given a green light by Obama / Kerry for a pathway for becoming a nuclear superpower. .... not to mention infusing it with hundreds of billions of dollars. This previously seemed very unlikely since Iran is the world's biggest state sponsor of terrorism.... but today it is a reality.
The idea that Iran will one day nuke Mecca and that Turkey will emerge as the regional "peace" maker by cutting a deal with Israel seems more and more plausible, even likely.
For all my EX JW friends who are not yet Christian, here's some FYI.
Many bible scholars do not believe that the Battle of Armageddon is the next end times battle depicted in prophecy. Most see at least three:
1. Psalms 83 war
2. Ezekiel 38 & 39 war
3. Armageddon battle
BTW, by the time Armageddon is fought (if you can call it it a fight, since Jesus wins with a single word spoken from his mouth) 2/3 of mankind will have already died from wars of the Anti-Christ.
Contrary to what the Watchtower says, Armageddon is NOT God's judgment upon men. It is God acting decisively to save a remnant of disobedient Israel as well as what's left of the rest mankind from the Anti-Christ, who is Satan incarnate.
Instead of Aramgeddon being feared, it will be a tremendous hope for believers during the tribulation period because the insanity of the nations instigated by man's chief enemy will finally come to an end.

Perry in what way are your superstitious fears any different from when you were a JW? Only the details have changed, the mentality is identical. -

Cofty,
There is nothing superstitious about Iran developing nuclear weapons. Iran is following the identical path that North Korea followed with all the inspection nonsense we all witnessed for years. Immediately after Obama bowed to the "King" of Tehran, they promised to harm the USA.
Your a priori commitment to materialism reminds me of a man who was convinced he was dead. His wife tried everything to get him to see that he was really alive. Finally, she convinced him to see a doctor. The doctor took an instrument and pricked his finger and blood came out. The man reeled in pain and angrily asked the doctor, Why did you cut me?" The doctor wryly replied, "Can dead men bleed"?
The man stared at his bleeding finger and slowly said, "I never believed dead people could bleed, until now".

I've gotten to the 1:54 mark and I find nothing but slipshod and disjointed assumptions one after the other. For example what Biblical sources are there for saying that Nimrod's wife was his mother? Hope it's not the Talmud.
Why Turkey and not Rome as a literal reading of Revelation would indicate? Also, Muslims do not worship the Moon and stars particularly ISIS whose anti-idolatry stand is so severe that they would remove and burn such a flag flying over any Muslim nation.
PS: Cute reference to Cotards Syndrome.
