Prophetic Development?

The MAP of Psalm 83 is becoming more clearly defined by the week. According to this passage, and companion passages in Isaiah 17, Ezekiel 25, Zephaniah 2, and Zechariah 9, Lebanon will be one of those nations that join together to attack Israel. Included in that number are Syria, Jordan, Egypt, and Saudi Arabia.
Up until the present, the Saudis had put forth a moderate face in their dealings in the region. Suddenly, the prospect of dealing with radicals seems to be too much for the Saudis to contemplate. They are swinging toward and attempt to actually control Hamas and Hizbollah. This places the Saudis and the Syrians at the brink of a classic struggle for control of radical Islam. However this battle ends, it will be Israel left in the cross hairs.
Saudis push Lebanese PM Hariri to quit, Lebanon near abyss
DEBKAfile Exclusive Report October 25, 2010
Saad Hariri pushed to quitIn a sudden about-face, the Saudis Monday, Oct. 25, urged Lebanon's pro-Western Prime Minister Saad Hariri to step down without delay and make way for an administration dominated by pro-Syrian ministers and Hizballah. King Abdullah, according to debkafile's Middle East and Beirut sources, sees no other way of saving Lebanon from tipping over into civil strife over Hizballah's demand to disband the international tribunal probing the 2005 murder of former prime minister Rafiq Hariri.

Last week, Hariri confided to US Deputy Secretary of State Jeffrey Feltman he was close to resigning and giving way to the Saudi King, long a friend of the Hariri family, now siding with its antagonists. When Riyadh saw he was sticking to his guns, the Saudi mouthpiece Asharq al-Awsat published an article of a sort rarely seen in the Arab media telling the Lebanese prime minister in no uncertain terms that he had choice in the matter. Chief Editor Tariq Alhomayed warned Saad Hariri that he had run out of options and the only thing left him was to follow his father's example and resign as prime minister as Rafiq Hariri did in late 2004.
(A few months later, Rafiq Hariri was assassinated in Beirut.)
