What else should we expect as we get further and further into the "last days"? The revolutions that took place in Tunisia and in Egypt have begun to spread to other Middle Eastern countries, and now Yemen, Algeria, Libya, Bahrain, and even Iran are seeing great unrest coming from their populations as well. These various peoples are saying that they want freedom, when it actually appears that they are most likely going to end up being controlled by Islamic extremists.
Yes, they may actually have a democratic type of election in the near future, but if they vote in these Islamic extremists, they will only have that one election in a democratic fashion and that will be it.
The only possible exception to that may be Iran, where they are already controlled by these Muslims of a terrorist mind-set, and the population seems to be rebelling against their rule. In fact the Iranian government has ordered these protesters executed! A far cry from what has happened so far in Egypt for example, where the military has shown great restraint allowing the demonstrators to have their say.
These dictatorial Middle Eastern governments are all running scared. If the majority of theses revolutions are successful, the overall disruption they will bring to the area will further aggravate food and fuel shortages, especially in those areas where the day to day commerce gets disrupted, and eventually over here in the U.S., we will feel the impact. If you think that a 29% increase last year was bad wait until we see the 50% jump for the present year, which may very well be just around the corner.
"And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine." Revelation 6:6.
Adjusted for inflation over a couple of thousand years means we could be paying $15.00 for a loaf of bread as well as $5--$6 dollars for a gallon of gas in the next few years!
