Who and/or what is the great dragon?

Who and/or what is the great red dragon as discussed in the Book of Revelations?

The truth of the Holy Spirit is found in the Book of Job. The Leviathan is describing a fire breathing dragon-like abomination monster similar to Godzilla.
Job41
[34] He beholdeth all high things: he is a king over all the children of pride.

Could President George W. Bush and/or the War against Terrorism fulfill God's prophecy of the great red dragon? Pay attention to how many times he and/or his Cabinet officers assert the word pride to martial patriotism. Not once has any asserted the word humility as a call to restore peace.

1John12
[16] For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.
Let me pose one grave question for our Body of Christ to seek God for the truth.

Can our government truthfully defeat terrorism? If so, how? It is a greater abomination than the War on Drugs which is as King Kong.
Rev13
[10] He that leadeth into captivity shall go into captivity: he that killeth with the sword must be killed with the sword. Here is the patience and the faith of the saints.
Amen!

Step 1 --

TRy actually quoting the text of Rev 12.

Try using exegesis - so more than one tiny snippet of the Word of God from Rev 12.

Try quoting and accepting maybe 10 or 12 verses right out of Rev 12 as a start and then let's explore what the TEXT says this is.

In Christ,

Bob

I'm pretty s-s-s-ure 1 John has-s-s only five chapters-s-s-s! At least in my Bible!

P.S. I hear that annoying hissing sound, again!

Stan, I salute your service to our country. I regret that you are disabled. I have read some of your writings which are quite good. Some, however, are not. This one falls into the latter category. If you'd like to communicate privately, please do so. I think we need to talk.
