This current news item indicates how serious the war in the middle-east has become now that Israel is firing missiles that are landing in Damascus. According to the book of Isaiah chapter 17, an event is coming in the future when the city of Damascus will be destroyed. Here is what one Bible commentary stated:
In the last days, the Bible tells us, a horrible series of events will take place in the lands of Israel and Syria. One of these events is the disappearance of Damascus as one of the premiere cities in the world.
