The explosion is near at hand, not the full, powerful explosion that the Woman has foiled but the smaller explosion, the next step, not the final destination chosen by Satan. Only the prayers of her little ones have mitigated this disaster which will be limited to a part of Europe.
The West will react but their own sins limit their powers against this satanic onslaught. Their military prominence, to which they look with confidence will shrink as Russia and China form their alliance.
