What makes this incredibly prophetic is that the Coming World Leader, known as the Antichrist, has a total of 33 titles in the Old Testament.  One of those is "King of Babylon", (Is. 14:4) the other is "The Assyrian",(Micah 5: ESV, NASB, KJV).  Today these roles have been combined.   Right now we see that a Kurd, an Assyrian, is now the President (modern military leader, aka, King) of Iraq (Biblical Babylon).  We know from Scripture that the Antichrist will come in on wings of peace, as a peacemaker.  He will end up fanning the winds of war leading this world to nuclear devastation after he gains his ultimate power.  Military might unleashed against Israel during the "Times of Jacobs Troubles" (Jer. 30:7).  Which we know as the great tribulation (Mt., Rev.)
