Daniel 11:40 "When the final hour comes, the king of the south will engage the king of the north, but the king will respond to his attack with chariots and horses and with a whole fleet of warships. He will invade many countries, and destroy them like a flood. 41 He will also invade our beautiful country, and many countries will fall under his power, though Edom and Moab and the chiefs of Ammon will escape from his hands. 42 He will spread his power over many countries, and not even Egypt will be able to be saved. 43 He will take possession of of the treasures of gold and silver of Egypt, and of all its riches, and he will also subdue the Libyans and the Ethiopians."
The present king of the south, where the UN is at the moment, where the communist elite rules in the shadows, with its influence disguised as democracy, will start a conflict against a king of the north who will respond with an absolute invasion of many countries.
Such is the invasion, which crushes the "beautiful land", that is, the holy place. However, Edom, Moab and Ammon will be spared. It also seems that the predominantly Arab area will not fall to the invasion of the king of the north. But he does seize the riches, gold and silver, and wipes out fiat money.
Then Libya and Ethiopia, as representative countries of the African continent, submit to their financial change backed in precious metals. (Coincidentally, Gaddafi wanted to create a gold-backed African currency, but they took him out of the way.) That will change when the king of the north rises.
If the elite with their UN government already owns all the riches in the world right now, I wonder how they will steal the riches, gold and silver from themselves after becoming the king of the north. In addition to apparently destroying the United States and then resurrecting it again to be admired and adored by the entire world. I'm looking forward to seeing it...
