'Beginning of Sorrows – Seal 4'
Mat 24:6-7a "And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not troubled; for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom."
If kingdom means a country ruled by a king, a President or a Prime Minister, then nation will be a tribe or a group of people. So nations against nation will be civil unrests, protests, wars caused by political, racial, tribal, religious, financial discontentment.
Arab Spring and Uprising
The series of demonstrations and protests across the Middle East and North Africa that commenced in December 2010, became known as the "Arab Spring. Within a short period of three months, almost all Muslim countries were involved in this 'Arab Spring'

Many governments resorted to offering economic concessions and removal of some restrictions to resolve the crisis.
By the end of February 2012, rulers were forced from power in Tunisia, Egypt, Libya and Yemen; civil uprisings had erupted in Bahrain and Syria; major protests had broken out in Algeria, Iraq, Jordan, Kuwait, Morocco, and Sudan;
1993 – First Seal White horse, signing of PLO- Israel Peace Treaty
1994 – Second Seal Red horse, the April Rwandan Genocide
1997 – Third Seal Black horse, the Asian Financial Crisis
Rev 6:7-8a When He opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth living creature saying, "Come and see." So I looked, and behold, a pale horse.
a pale horse - the word pale was wrongly translated from 'chloros' in Greek meaning green (the colour of Islam)
I am convinced that the fourth Seal will soon be opened in the Middle East. All these civil commotions, revolutions and wars will prelude the sabotages and revolutions during World War 3 whereby a quarter of mankind will be massacred. Unfortunately, only a handful of Christians believe the soon opening of the fourth Seal or World War 3.
