This is interesting because Daniel names 3 of the 10 countries that will be part of the antichrist's empire. The three named are Egypt, Ethiopia, and Libya. Why these three? Probably because they ride the fence, trying to be 'moderate' Islamic nations. This would never fly in the eyes of a hardline islamic dictator. Renewing relations with the west is not looked upon favorably. In addition, there are enough hardline citizens within these countries to support a coup.

Egypt has been considered moderate ever since Anwar Sadat, a lead well-liked by the west, which got him assassinated. Ethiopia may simply be so anarchic that they lend themselves to being conquered.
