The antiChrist will be one who is a very gifted and charismatic

be reunited [we see now Europe reuniting-European union and
Euro].
Out of this unity a ten-nation leauge will be formed from which the
anti-Christ will emerge. it is the Roman empire revived. They will
control the economy of the world and so this he uses as one of the
levers to hold sway globally.
He will give false and temporary peace to the world and so every
one will rally behind him at first.
He will also be given authority to rule the world. [that's how he
does it]
He will set himself as God in the temple of Jerusalem [when it will
be restored in the future] since Israel will accept Him as their
long awaited Messiah. But after three years and a half a remnant in
Israel will realize their mistake and be converted to the Lord.
Those who will be left behind in Christendom will receive him also.
All who oppose his rule will be subject to his persecutions and
atrocities.
Eventually, there will be nations who will oppose him and since he
will base his capital in Jerusalem, all other nations will combine
and merge and attack Israel. It will be a real world war because
[b]every
single nation in the world will be involved in the
conflict unlike previous "world" wars.
either pro antichrist or against him. Of course those who are
against do not attack him from a religious stand point. maybe it
will be from a political and economic motivations.
But before they can destroy Israel the Lord will come and destroy
the AntiChrist and the nations.
and so this prophecy in the Old testament will be fulfilled:
Joe 3:12 "Let the
nations be wakened, and come up to the Valley of Jehoshaphat; For
there I will sit to judge all the surrounding
nations.
13 Put in the sickle, for the harvest is ripe. Come, go down; For
the winepress is full, The vats overflow-For their wickedness is
great."
14 Multitudes,
multitudes in the valley of decision! For the day of the LORD is
near in the valley of decision.
15 The sun and moon will grow dark, And the stars will diminish
their brightness.
16 The LORD also will roar from Zion, And utter His voice from
Jerusalem; The heavens and earth will shake; But the LORD will be a
shelter for His people, And the strength of the children of
Israel.
yes, it will be a terrible destruction. According to the Bible, if
the blood of those will die in the Tribulation wil be measured
according to height, it will reach up to a horses bridle.

Amen Ironside. They even have seat no 666 in the EU council.
Currently nobody is on that seat. But there will be somebody soon.
Look at what happens to Iran-US-Syria conflict. Very soon end time
scenario will play out. Hold on tight.
Even radical shiite leader Mahmoud looking for & trying to
hasten the coming of their messiah with fires across the world.
