ALLIANCE OF CIVILIZATIONS AND THE ONE WORLD ORDER
by MONTANA NEWS ASSOCIATION

Dec 30, 2005

The onslaught of Islamic terrorism has accelerated nations moving
toward a one world order. European leaders, the United Nations and
Islamic nations have embraced what is called an "alliance of
civilizations" aimed at combining cultural exchanges, joint
peacekeeping missions and interfaith dialogue to foment international
peace, possibly laying the groundwork for the one-world order
discussed in Revelation 13. In July 2004, the BBC reported that
Spain's President Jose Zapetaro cast a vision for the alliance of
civilizations that "could therefore prevent hate and misunderstanding
from developing by looking at political and cultural issues -
everything from joint peace keeping missions to interfaith dialogue."

In July 2005, British Prime Minister Tony Blair and Spain's Zapatero,
in the wake of terrorist attacks in London and Madrid, were joined by
United Nations Secretary General Kofi Annan and European Union Foreign
Minister Javier Solana in a call for the convening of an "alliance of
civilizations." This alliance is aimed at bringing together mostly
European and Arab nations in an effort as Mr. Blair put it in July,
"to form a coalition of civilized people from whatever race or
religion to combat the barbarity of terrorism." This marked one of the
first joint public statements by European leaders that mixed religion
with race and geography primarily targeting Euro-Islamic relations.

The first meeting of this group was held in November at a Barcelona
summit sponsored by Blair, where the Arab states and European
countries tried to reach agreement on the definition of terrorism.
They failed to reach consensus on what defines terrorism, but agreed
otherwise to share information that could prevent terrorism. Even with
no definition of terrorism, the shared information was considered a
valuable first step to opening dialogue between Europe and Islamic
states. The alliance of civilizations fits hand in glove with another
European Union program that provides special economic and trade
incentives to Middle East nations who wish to accept certain EU
foreign policy objectives. Israel is among them.

Europeans, with basically no strong religious convictions, creating an
alliance with radically committed Islamic nations could usher in the
Revelation 13:7-8 prophecy, "And it was given unto him to make war
with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over
all kindreds, and tongues, and nations. And all that dwell upon the
earth shall worship him whose names are not written in the book of
life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world." These are
days of great deception. What seems reasonable to create peace may be
the type and shadow of prophetic destiny. These are the days when your
relationship with Jesus is most important for with it is wisdom and
discernment.
