Just Ten Years

 

Right in line with Bible prophecy, the landscape in Europe has been tumultuous this past decade. Among the highlights of European changes:

• Collapse of Soviet Union. Indispensable for European unity.

• The euro. A single currency paves the way for a single government.

• Germany’s reunification. The fall of the Berlin Wall introduced a new Germany to the continent.

• German plan for dismembering Yugoslavia.

• U.S. troop withdrawal. More than two-thirds of America’s Cold War forces have pulled out of Europe. First signs of a new Europe less dependent on America.

• German support for Croatia, an old fascist ally.

• German insistence on attacking Serbia, a reviled World War II foe.

• European Union. Is there a more obvious fulfillment of Bible prophecy?

• First German combat action abroad since World War II.
