Extremist Islamic jihad against Western Europe is part of the wider picture required by Bible prophecies of the last days- Israel must be isolated and be left without support, be destroyed, and then Jesus Christ will return to earth and establish God's Kingdom. This is the significance of terrorist attacks in Western Europe. .
