Below I have attached a MS Word document with a table explaining the historical data behind the story of Daniel's Dream regarding the 4 Beasts (or beast-like creatures) and the Son of Man (or human-like being). In its original historical context, the story of Daniel's Dream and its interpretation represented Jewish political hopes of the 160s BCE.
Despite the ramblings of modern American preachers, the visions had nothing to do with later, much less modern, political events.
