Daniel 11:27, 9:27; Psalm 83:5-8), when he pushes a little too hard (Daniel 11:40), it will be the end of Islam as a major force (cf. Daniel 11:40-43).<\/p>\n France is giving the Islamic world a hint of that now, though most will tend to dismiss this as mainly political anti-terrorist talk.\u00a0 Those embracing Islam need to remember that the Crusaders came from Europe, and that Europeans are busy putting together the foundation of what many believe will be the re-emergence of the old “Holy Roman Empire”.\u00a0 An empire with little tolerance for Islam.<\/p>\n Four articles of possibly related interest may include:<\/em><\/p>\n Is There A Future King of the South?<\/a> Some no longer believe there needs to be.
