Washington leaders are examining the biblical account of Gog and Magog to assist them in interpreting an emerging alliance between Russia and Iran. This, combined with Ahmadinejad's nuclear pretensions, has stirred up middle east tensions to the point where Ehud Olmert, Israeli Prime Minister, has said that the third world war is likely to be a mid east war involving Gog and Magog.
To add fuel to the fire Russian and US forces are rattling their sabres as they play war games. Manoevres currently underway are part of a growing psychological war between the US and Russia at a time when the US economy and national leadership is weakening. It is no coincidence then that an ideological nation like Russia should choose a ripe moment and an increasingly influential mid-east front to reclaim its political status. The standoff between Russia and the US portends another cold war.
