Signs of the Last Days The exercise will take considerable time, and no doubt will involve aeroplanes, ships and ground troops. The ground forces will need to cross the River Euphrates, and Scripture says that its waters will be dried up to allow the huge army to cross (Rev.16:12). It is interesting to note that a great deal of attention is being given by the World Tourist Organization (WTO) to the opening up of the old Silk Road, which was a maize of roads used as the major link between Asia and the Middle East in ancient times. It ran from Xian, in central China, to the Mediterranean, as shown on the adjoining map. Rail connections have already been established, and there are plans to construct a natural gas line from central Asia to China along this corridor. Fast-train technology, coupled with the desire to provide access to land-locked developing countries in central Asia, makes the proposal attractive. A glance at the map will show that the path to the Middle East along the Silk Road located south of the Caspian Sea must cross the Euphrates River, which, the Bible says, will be dried up to allow Asian armies to pass. The Sign of Euphrates Drying Up The Euphrates and Tigris Rivers rise in the very high country of Turkey eastern Turkey around Ararat and flow to the lowlands of Syria and Syria Iraq, finally pouring into the Persian Gulf. Israel Iraq Already Turkey has harnessed the waters of the Euphrates and Tigris and has used the Saudi Arabia Euphrates as a political weapon against Syria by stopping the flow for a period of four days. A report by Intelligence Digest 3 May 1996, reads as follows: "Last week we warned that Syria was likely to respond by increasing support for Kurdish anti-Turkish terrorism, and that Turkey in turn would likely respond by using the water weapon. No sooner was the ink dry on the paper than news came in that Turkey had done precisely that- reduced the supply of water flowing down the 109 Tigris R. Euphrates R. The way of the kings of the east
The Basics of Bible Prophecy Euphrates to Syria. Turkey announced that it was to cut the flow of water for four days... for technical reasons." ( Intelligence Digest is available from The Stoneyhill Centre, Brimpsfield, Gloucester, GL4 8LF, UK.) However, Turkey has much grander plans for the waters of the Euphrates and the Tigris. In 1996 Turkey announced a US$32 billion scheme to build dams, hydroelectric power plants, and irrigation schemes along the Euphrates, and on 1October 1997 the Turkish State Hydraulic Works (DSI) announced details of how this massive scheme would be implemented. This development demonstrates how Turkey can influence much of the Middle East through the control of water supplies. Turkey, a nation of 60 million people, has a powerful military force which neither Syria nor Iraq would dare to challenge, so these nations are virtually powerless to retaliate. The report on Turkey’s plans is described in New Europe 11 October 1997, and in view of the great significance of this development we print a substantial part of the following newspaper article. “Turkey is planning a series of water projects stretching from Istanbul to its impoverished south-east in a bid to meet growing water and energy demands, a leading water sector official said last Wednesday (1 October). “The country’s State Hydraulic Works (DSI) unveiled details of a dam project worth US$1billion near Turkey’s border with Syria and Iraq. Plans for a pipeline to carry water to Istanbul and a project to ship water from Turkey’s southern shores to northern Cyprus were also in the offing...The dam is being negotiated by Sulzer, and the Union Bank of Switzerland is financing it.” Negotiations on the scheme to build a dam and a 1200mw (megawatt) hydroelectric power plant in Ilisu were scheduled for the first half of 1998. This dam, will be the largest on the Tigris River and is a part of the US$32 billion energy and irrigation project centred on the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers within south-east Turkey. The South-East Anotalia Project (GAP) consists of a planned network of 22 dams and 19 power plants, with a capacity of 7,476 mw (megawatts). The huge project has upset downstream neighbours Iraq and Syria, who fear that Turkey will be able to turn off their water supplies in 110
