Pro
Isaiah falsely predicts that the Medes will conquer and destroy Babylon. Jeremiah makes the same mistake, but more frequently: see the Jeremiah 51:11 section for details. --Robert Stevens 11:21, 27 Jul 2006 (CDT)
Response to Con piece: The following two verses refer to destruction. Isaiah 13:18 talks of killing young men and children, and Isaiah 13:19 compares Babylon's fate to that of Sodom and Gomorrah. --Robert Stevens 04:49, 23 Nov 2006 (CST)
Con
There is nothing here about destruction. Also, see my comment in the con section of Jeremiah 51:11 --Austin
