The more fearful Sunday attacks follow a previous attack done on Good Friday!<\/font><\/p>\n

Citizens in Syria’s capital woke up early on Sunday to a series of powerful explosions shaking the outskirts of Damascus, sending massive fireballs into the night sky. Preliminary reports that this was an Israeli attack were subsequently confirmed by NBC citing a senior US official who said Israeli jets had bombed a military research center near of Damascus. This would be the second Israeli attack on Syrian territory in the past week, following US media reports that Israel targeted a weapons shipment to the militant group Hezbollah in neighboring Lebanon overnight Thursday to Friday, although the Jewish state has refused to confirm or deny the bombing. As RT further reports, during the attack, one Israeli jet was reportedly shot down by Syria’s Air Force, according to Hezbollah’s Manar TV channel, citing security sources in Damascus. This has yet to be confirmed through official channels although if accurate one expects Syrian media to promptly confirm with video evidence.<\/em><\/p>\n

The following article on RealJewNews<\/a> has a comment regarding a certain monk from Mount Athos about a prophecy done on his death bed seven years ago. Let us pray that this may not be confirmed !<\/p>\n

“Many Orthodox saints from Cosmas the Aetolian to Neilos to Anotonios and Arsenios, and those soon to be named saints by acclaim \u2014 Paisios and Joseph \u2014 all have described the current scenario and the role of Russia, as defender of true Christianity.<\/p>\n

In fact, one monk, on his death bed seven years ago, when asked about the predicted war, had said it would begin with war in Syria. He said it would happen \u201cthe next time Great and Holy Pascha (what the west calls \u201cEaster\u201d), would be May 5th.”<\/em><\/p>\n

This would be the second account of terrible things to come linked to unfolding events in Syria – see our previous post on this subject: “When the evil begins from Syria, start praying and asking for God’s forgiveness”<\/a><\/p>\n
