This whole world situation is certainly becoming more intense as we continue to see many alliances form. This is all perpetuating a script from many "prophecies" that we see playing out before our eyes. Look up the “Yalkut Shimoni” prophecy, it specifically talks about what is going on in the Middle East involving Iran, Saudi Arabia and Israel. Other older texts corroborate that idea that it is seemingly inevitable with the way the world powers operate. Whether religious or not, it does show that something is going on that parallels these prophetic texts. We can hope it could turn around, but it has been spiralling out of control.
