As far as predestination of nations goes, I have no trouble at all believing it. God raised up kings and nations to punish the Jews time and again; also, prophecy is clear on end times as far as Russia and the other nations of the East (likely China and India) are concerned.
Of course, as far as predestination of individuals goes; we're predestined to be conformed to His image, not to get saved. Predestination has nothing to do with individuals concerning salvation whatsoever.
