10 Permanent UN Security Council Members?

So I finally finished one essay to discover I have another that's due next week....But I just couldn't pass up posting about something I read today.

The New Zealand Herald had an article about Britain PM Gordon Brown's secret talks on 'new world order'. He is meeting with world leaders to discuss the UN Security Council. And....very interestingly, one of the things being talked about is increasing the permanent members of the UN Security Council (Currently, USA, China, Great Britain, Russia, and France) to include 5 more permanent members. This would result in.....10 permanent UN Security Council members. Just as a side note, the Security Council also has 10 non-permanent members who do not hold a veto. So, currently there are 5 permanent members who have not changed since 1946, 10 non-permanent members who rotate every 2 years for a total of 15 Security Council members.

Here are some quotes from this article: Read the article in its entirety here.

"Brown will unveil a proposal for the UN to spend £100 million ($257 million) a year on setting up a "rapid reaction force" to stop "failed states" sliding back into chaos after a peace deal has been reached."

"The issue of UN reform has long been on the agenda. One suggestion is that permanent membership could be expanded to 10 with India, Japan, Germany, Brazil and South Africa taking places."

Just thought this was very interesting in light of the fact that the Bible talks about 10 horns, which most prophecy scholars believe represent 10 nations with 10 kings that will exist during the end times, which the Antichrist will have control over.

4 The ten horns are ten kings who will come from this kingdom. After them another king will arise, different from the earlier ones; he will subdue three kings. 25 He will speak against the Most High and oppress his saints and try to change the set times and the laws. The saints will be handed over to him for a time, times and half a time. ^{[a] Daniel 7:24-25}

2"The ten horns you saw are ten kings who have not yet received a kingdom, but who for one hour will receive authority as kings along with the beast. 13They have one purpose and will give their power and authority to the beast. 14They will make war against the Lamb, but the Lamb will overcome them because he is Lord of lords and King of kings—and with him will be his called, chosen and faithful followers." Revelation 17:12-14

Please don't misunderstand me--I'm not saying that the UN Security Council members will be the 10 kings and nations the Bible talks about. I'm simply saying that I find it interesting that for the first time since its creation, they are discussing having 10 permanent members instead of 5. Why the change???---time will tell.
