The Radicalization of Europe.

Comment on this article

“The European Commission has said preventive action is needed to stop what it sees as spreading radicalism across the EU. ‘We see that extremism, xenophobia and nationalism keeps growing in Europe [and] we see worrying signals that these groups act as breeding grounds of ideology motivated by violence and extremist views,’ EU commissioner for home affairs Cecilia Malmstrom told reporters” (EU Observer, January 15, 2014). “To counter what she views as an internal security threat, Malmstrom announced a series of recommendations which she wants member states to immediately implement.” The recommendations “will add to the EU’s arsenal of some 240 existing counter-terrorism measures” (ibid.).

But will rules and regulations really stem the tide of radicalization? Bible prophecy indicates that radical ideology will drive Europe in the years ahead. As the Beast takes power, he will sign a unique peace deal with nations of the Middle East, ushering in 3.5 years of peace that apparently permits ritual Jewish animal sacrifices on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem (Daniel 9:27). However, this European leader will abruptly reject his own peace deal, terminate the temple sacrifices, surround Jerusalem with armies, and offer abominations upon the altar (Daniel 11:29-31; Matthew 24:15; Luke 21:20-24).
