God sets up and removes politicians in the process of preparing for His Kingdom on earth.
Blessed be the name of God for ever and ever: for wisdom and might are his:
And he changeth the times and the seasons: he removeth kings, and setteth up kings: Dan 2:20&21

The ultimate success of Mr George. W. Bush may rest on his approach to the City of Jerusalem.

Mr Blair's future as a politician may well rest with his policies in Europe as according to Ezekiel the prophet Britain and America will unite in defence of the Land of Israel. When a northern power including Europe invades Israel.

Remember Britain Favoured a National homeland for the Jew under Loyd George and the then Foreign minister Lord Balfour  --see the Balfour Declaration. If the Government opposes the Will of God, then it may well be removed!

A confederacy of Nations described by the Bible

in the latter years thou (the nations coloured in yellow on the previous page ) shalt come into the land  that - - is gathered out of many people, against the mountains of Israel,  which have been always waste: but it is brought forth out of the nations, - - Thou shalt ascend and come like a storm, - - at the same time shall things come into thy mind, - - thou shalt say, I will go up to the land  -  - To take a spoil, -  - to turn -  -  upon the desolate places that are now inhabited, and upon the people that are gathered out of the nations, which  - - dwell in the midst of the land...against my people of Israel.

The opposing nations are described as:-

the merchants of Tarshish, Old Lion Britain with all the young lions (The Old Lions Whelps, America, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, India and South Africa.  See Jerusalem page) thereof, shall say unto thee ( Russia, Europe, Iran, Iraq and some of the Middle East powers) ...  hast thou gathered thy company to take a prey?  to carry away silver and gold, ... to take a great spoil?
