Now the number of the army of the horsemen was two hundred million; I heard the number of them (Revelation 9:13-15). 12 Then the sixth angel poured out his bowl on the great river Euphrates, and its water was dried up, so that the way of the kings from the east might be prepared. 13 And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs coming out of the mouth of the dragon, out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet. 14 For they are spirits of demons, performing signs, which go out to the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty. 15 Behold, I am coming as a thief. Blessed is he who watches, and keeps his garments, lest he walk naked and they see his shame.\u201d 16 And they gathered them together to the place called in Hebrew, Armageddon (Revelation 16:12-16).<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The largest &#8220;kings of the east&#8221; would be Russia, China, and India.\u00a0 And they are capable of fielding a 200,000,000 man army.<\/p>\n<p>The following news item today was of interest:<\/p>\n<div>\n<h2 style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;\"><strong><span style=\"font-size: large;\">Support for Russia at SCO  Summit<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;\"> <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;\"><strong>The Hindu<\/strong>, India &#8211; Aug 29,  2008<\/span><\/div>\n<div>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;\">MOSCOW: Russia has won crucial support for its peace  efforts in South Ossetia from China and other allies in the Shanghai Cooperation  Organisation (SCO).<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;\">At a summit meeting in Dushanbe, Tajikistan, on  Thursday, the six-nation SCO security grouping explicitly backed Russia\u2019s  \u201cactive role\u201d in restoring peace in the region and endorsing a six-point peace  plan worked out jointly with France.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;\">\u201cThe SCO states welcome the adoption in Moscow on  August 12 of six principles of settling the conflict in South Ossetia and  support Russia\u2019s active role in contributing to peace and cooperation in the  region,\u201d said the leaders of Russia, China, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan  and Uzbekistan in a joint declaration adopted at their one-day summit. <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;\">Though the SCO leaders refrained from condemning  Georgia\u2019s military attack on its breakaway territory of South Ossetia, their  solidarity with Russia stood in stark contrast with the West\u2019s denunciation of  the \u201cRussian aggression\u201d against Georgia.
