Is God using the midterms to shape the Middle East? – Revelation Rosetta Stone

THE DOUBLE TAKE · November 6, 2026

Is God using the midterms to shape the Middle East?

First the headline. Then the Bible.

Is God using the midterms to shape the Middle East?

Democrats now hold both chambers of Congress, and Vice President JD Vance said the reason Republicans lost is the war. This Weekend Edition asks whether God is using the midterms to shape the Middle East: a possible off-ramp from the Iran war, Gulf states already hedging through disputed Saudi-Houthi diplomacy and the Makkah Pact, and — in the Revelation Rosetta Stone reading of Daniel 7 — whether an unsettled peace would strengthen the Iranian leopard as the United States steps aside. Listen to our take on the headlines.
