John McCain Warns of Iran 'Armageddon'

2008 presidential hopeful John McCain said Sunday that the consequences of a military conflict with Iran over that country's nuclear program could be so serious they could lead to "Armageddon."

The Arizona Republican issued his dire warning after saying that before any military option against Iran is exercised, the world community must first put maximum pressure on Tehran through sanctions.

"We're going to the United Nations Security Council with our European allies," he told NBC's "Meet the Press." "We are seeking sanctions . . . . We must have sanctions against Iran."

McCain said that if sanctions fail, the U.S. must be prepared to resort to the use of military force.

"Would it be a difficult military option?" he asked rhetorically. "Sure, it would be a difficult military option. But you cannot remove it from the table."

Asked by "Meet the Press" host Tim Russert if the U.S. might find itself embroiled in two wars at once, McCain responded point blank:

"I think we could have Armageddon."

Without elaborating his the dire warning, the former Vietnam POW said there was still a chance that sanctions might work.

"If we handle this right, and our European allies stand with us, and the Russians and the Chinese stand with us, sanctions might do the job. And I am confident that this administration will exhaust every effort before contemplating seriously a military option."

Correct me if I'm wrong...but don't Republicans tend to understate everything so for a Republican to state a war in Iran could cause Armageddon, should the unsaved be really really really worried? blink.gif

I know when trouble hits you in the face that it hurts and apprehension follows but these worldly event are like a train running down the track. What God says will happen for His Glory! Proverbs 21 tells us,

QUOTE
1 The king's heart is like channels of water in the hand of the LORD; He turns it wherever He wishes. 2 Every man's way is right in his own eyes, But the LORD weighs the hearts.


God sees the heart of every man, even the king! What God does not want to happen, will not! If it is time for Armageddon, so be it! If it is not time for Armageddon, so be it! All we can do is what God tells us to do! keep witnessing about His reality and His Salvation! The Watchmen will tell us when Armageddon is looming. I personally think that it is. But night has not fallen!
