I wondered why the EUobserver attached a picture of the Arch of Titus to a report about the possibility of France not adopting the EU's new constitution Read about it here. I came to the conclusion the picture was simply used to represent France. I'm not so sure anymore.

According to this report Read about it here, no matter what the French decide, the Dutch people are most likely going to vote down the new constitution also. That's when the idea hit me. If the EU's new constitution isn't adopted, guess who they'll blame. That's right -- us Bible believers! 

Friend's, is this one of the reasons the coming Antichrist and his ten kings will wage war against God's people? That's a scary thought. But, once you understand the thinking of the EU's leaders, it makes perfect sense.   

You see, after experiencing the devastation of two world wars, Europe's leaders believe the EU is responsible for finally establishing a true and lasting peace. This being the case, the last thing they want to see is something that threatens this peace. Now, if the new constitution isn't approved, these leaders believe their beloved EU won't be able to function. In other words, in these leader's eyes, the people who will vote against the EU's new constitution are a security threat.

This brings us to the Brussels Treaty Powers. How will they react if the EU's new constitution fails to be approved? If you recall, these 10 EU/NATO nations share a mutual defense agreement with each other in the modified Brussels Treaty. If the constitution fails, their existing agreement would have to continue being the foundation to their security.

In the meantime, the EU's High Representative, Javier Solana, is already busy creating all the machinery that is called for under the new constitution. And, as the reports keep saying, there is no "plan B." So, on January 1, 2007, I suspect Solana will sit down at his new desk with, or without, the new constitution.

Getting back to who the EU leaders may blame if the constitution isn't approved. Solana has already said that he thought America was too religious. In other words, in Solana's mind, religion may be one of the obstacles to the EU's agenda. This brings us back to that picture of the Arch of Titus. If you recall, the monument was built in to celebrate Rome's victory in the Jewish War.

Is that the real reason the EUobserver used that picture? Was it a subtle warning to those who would oppose Rome's modern-day revival?

Was it a warning to us?
