The power of anagrametry

I came across this anagram generator, a few days ago. Anagrams can tell us such a lot about the names - and probably the people - they rearrange. I didn’t expect much (in any way) of ‘George W. Bush’ but, guess what, he is actually ‘US Hebrew Gog’.

Still, we knew that already, didn’t we folks? According to this site (Google search ‘Gog’ and ‘Ezekiel’, first hit), Ezekiel 39 ‘...points out the weapons of Gog would be used for fuel by Israel for seven years’. Not long now, then.

Further, a glance at verse 11 also tells us "...I will give to Gog a place for burial in Israel...”

The Bible’s extraordinary prescience told us that Dubya would be arming Israel but is he really to be offered a tomb near the late, very much lamented Robert Maxwell?
