Israel Will Strike Iran in September

This next article falls big time into the "there will be rumors of wars" category that Jesus told us to watch for in Matthew 24.

Israel will probably attack Iran in September, a veteran CIA officer who spent 21 years in the Middle East, including in Lebanon and Syria, told a Los Angeles radio show on Tuesday.

While former CIA officer Rober Baer didn't reveal the sources behind his prediction, he referred to former Mossad chief Meir Dagan's warnings of an Israeli attack on Iran as "no bluff."


Baer told the KPFK Los Angeles show Background Briefing that previous comments made by Dagan that an Israeli attack on Iran could lead to a regional war, "tell us with near certainty that Netanyahu is planning an attack, and in as much as I can guess when it's going to be, it's probably going to be in September before a vote on the Palestinian state."

We also have heard that Israel had planned to attack Iran at other times in the past few years but that Washington had not give the green light.  But now Israel is not giving as much sway on Washington since Obama is the least popular president EVER in that country.  Also Iran is rattling it's swords almost on a weekly basis now...and every time the West is non responsive Iran gets further emboldened to rattle more swords.

3-4 years ago the world was saying that Iran only wanted nuclear power for peaceful purposes.  Now pretty much everyone knows they want a bomb.  Israel, of course, knew it all along and they will soon be the ones that will need to act.

Will the USA join them in their strike?  Or will this be the action that further isolates Israel in the eyes of the world so that soon they will be all alone....just the Bible said they would in the Last Days?

"Obama...Don't Meet With Dalai Lama"

As we know, China holds about $1 trillion of our U.S. Treasury Bonds.  As we also know the Dalai Lama is the spiritual leader of Tibet, and Tibet has been "occupied" by China for some decades now.

So when Obama made plans to meet the Lama...China wasn't happy.

The Chinese government on Saturday called on the United States to cancel a planned meeting between President Barack Obama and the Tibetan religious leader the Dalai Lama, warning that it would “damage” relations between both countries.


“The issue regarding Tibet concerns China’s sovereignty and territorial integrity, and we firmly oppose any foreign official to meet with the Dalai Lama in any form,” Foreign Ministry spokesperson Hong Lei said in a statement.


He called on the U.S. government “to immediately withdraw the decision” of arranging the meeting and “to avoid interfering in China’s internal affairs and damaging China-U.S. relations.”

Of course if we didn't owe China all that money, and if we weren't on the edge of a financial abyss (which China could push us over) then Obama could meet with the Lama and we could thumb our noses at China and tell them we will talk to anyone we want to.

More Gay Stuff Floods Into California

As we have said, the gay agenda seems to be pouring down on us like a flood of epic proportions....and the rain continues today with more news out of California.  The headline is below, but could I first ask a question...What exactly IS Gay History??  Could it be this?.... 

"In 1918, Jim Smith was the very first man in California to sodomize another man.  By 1920, Henrietta Johnson had consummated the first lesbian sexual relations with another woman.  Later that very same year Tom Thompson exercised his natural desires and sodomized a man in the morning but later that day had natural relations with his wife thereby entering the history books as the first bi-sexual in California!  We owe our gratitude to these brave pioneers of early California!"

California orders gay history in school textbooks       

SAN FRANCISCO — California became the first U.S. state to require that public school textbooks include the accomplishments of gay, lesbian and transgender Americans as Governor Jerry Brown signed the mandate into law.   

"This bill revises existing laws that prohibit discrimination in education and ensures that the important contributions of Americans from all backgrounds and walks of life are included in our history books," Brown said. "It represents an important step forward for our state.

'Sexually brainwashed'Randy Thomasson, president of the conservative SaveCalifornia.com, said Brown had "trampled the parental rights of the broad majority of California mothers and fathers who don't want their children to be sexually brainwashed."

"The only way parents can opt-out their kids from this immoral indoctrination is to opt them out of the entire public school system, which is no longer for morally sensitive parents and their children," Thomasson said.

"There is no room for discrimination of any kind in our classrooms, our communities or our state," said Dean Vogel, president of the California Teachers Association.

Oh----My----Goodness---!  California has TOTALLY lost it!  It is atheism and hedonism running it's course in the Golden State!  I would evacuate as soon as possible!  (problem being I have no idea where one would evacuate to?)

"In those days, Israel had no king; everyone did as he saw fit."  Judges 21:25

Today this could read, "In those days America had no leaders who feared the Lord and no people who knew The Word; everyone did as he saw fit."

God WILL NOT let this stand.  That is an absolute certainty...you can take it to the bank.

Executive Order 6102

Everyone seems to be fleeing into gold.  On the outside it makes perfect sense if you see the US dollar becoming worthless because as the gold commercial says, "Gold has never been worthless".

But lets remember what happened the last time the USA almost collapsed during the Great Depression.....THE U.S. GOVERNMENT SEIZED EVERY ONE'S GOLD by law.

Dennis...they can't do that!

Really?!  They did it once already in 1933.  And notice how many times Obama has compared himself to FDR in the past 2 years and understand it was FDR who issued the order.  In fact it was illegal for US citizens to buy gold coins or bullion until President Ford lifted the order in 1974.

Executive Order 6102 required U.S. citizens to deliver on or before May 1, 1933, all but a small amount of gold coin, gold bullion, and gold certificates owned by them to the Federal Reserve, in exchange for $20.67 per troy ounce. Under theTrading With the Enemy Act of October 6, 1917, as amended on March 9, 1933, violation of the order was punishable by fine up to $10,000 ($167,700 if adjusted for inflation as of 2010) or up to ten years in prison, or both. Most citizens who owned large amounts of gold had it transferred to countries such as Switzerland.

"Their silver and gold will not be able to save them in the day of the Lord's wrath.  They will not satisfy their hunger or fill their stomachs with it, for it has made them stumble into sin."  Ezekiel 7:19

Let's ask ourselves as we desperately look for some place to store our earthly treasure in these last days...are our actions of attempting to preserve our wealth making us stumble into sin?

Economic Collapse

By now you may have all caught the headlines yesterday that Moody's rating service is telling USA that they may have to lower the Treasury's credit rating from AAA...of course this is something we have been warning about for the past few years.  Something that most talking heads keep telling us could NEVER happen.

A few readers may still be saying, "So what?...that means nothing to me."  Hopefully by now it is a very few readers who are saying that....but for the sake of the few we will explain it again.

Currently the Federal Reserve has been "buying" most of the Treasury Bonds thereby driving the interest rate down to near 1%...which is good for a nation like ours that has $14.3 trillion of debt.  That's a whole lot of interest even at 1 or 2%.  But what happens when the Federal Reserve has no more capacity to "buy" bonds from the Treasury? (Ponzi scheme over)  Then we will be having auctions where possibly few buyers will be showing up so they could bid on bonds at say 4% and if no one stands up to bid the interest rate down...they will get those bonds for 4%...and instantly everyone who is holding a 10 year bond paying 2% will have lost about 30% of the value of their principal.  This is just simple 101 math.

BIG CLUE....SO PAY ATTENTION!  The Federal Reserve IS NOT OWNED OR CONTROLLED BY THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT....but instead is run by a shadowy existence of power brokers who basically hold all the strings to the global financial system.

Now lets go for broke and look at a scenario that could happen sooner than later.  Let's pretend that the Treasury has an auction (maybe next week or next month) to sell $50 billion worth of 10 year bonds and China, Brazil, India and Japan decide they have enough US Treasury bonds so they stay home from the auction.  Now what?  For the past 25 years we have been operating under the false illusion that the other governments of the world will ALWAYS stand in line to buy our debt....and that is a false assumption.

At this point the house of cards will begin to come down VERY fast.

Remember that the entire house of cards is today standing on "THE FULL FAITH AND CONFIDENCE OF THE US GOVERNMENT"...and when than confidence wanes...the value of our paper money could collapse faster than an angry hog could chase you up a tree.

Just imagine the financial carnage that will happen if the USA (like Greece) is all of a sudden forced to pay 10% on any future bonds we sell in order to entice China or India to buy more of our paper that Moody's is now threatening to downgrade?

I found this video on YouTube posted about 6 weeks ago from a pretty normal dad who has written a few books.  I think he does a fairly good job of confirming the things we have been saying...and I believe he does it in pretty easy to understand language.

As you watch this short video, notice that he also chooses to use the word Ponzi scheme as he describes how Social Security and Medicare work.

See it here;  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nWrgCQr1JGs&feature=related

Friends...seriously...if you haven't made ANY plans for what you will do the DAY AFTER financial carnage hits....the tornado sirens are going off.  It is now time to seriously look for safe cover.

"A prudent man sees danger and takes refuge, but the simple keep going and suffer for it."  Proverbs 22:3

Look around you.  The Vikings are still crying for a stadium...Hollywood keeps churning out crappy movies....your local news spends half it's time reporting sports scores and telling the masses NOTHING of the relevant things happening...and most preachers in our local churches have been worthless shepherds guiding a lost flock.  Americans have become simple....and they are going to suffer for it.

Pray that the Lord will speak to authentic Christians and lead us to the appropriate tornado shelter.

2011 Already Costliest Year EVER

The headline today is claiming that 2011, even though we are only 7 months into it, is the costliest year for disasters EVER!

Natural disasters across the globe have made 2011 the costliest on record in terms of property damage, and that's just six months in, according to a report released Tuesday by a leading insurer that tracks disasters.   

The first six months saw $265 billion in economic losses, well above the previous record of $220 billion set for all of 2005 (the year Hurricane Katrina struck), according to Munich Re, a multinational that insures insurance companies.

For the United States, 98 events (storms, flooding, fires and earthquakes) left $27 billion in economic losses, more than double the 10-year average of $11.8 billion, Munich Re stated.

The total number of events is trending up as well: The first half of 2011 has already produced more events than most entire years before 2006, the company found.

NOW PAY ATTENTION TO WHAT IS CAUSING THIS CATASTROPHIC INCREASE:

"It can only be explained by global warming," he added.
See it here;  http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/43727793/ns/world_news-world_environment/t/already-costliest-year-natural-disasters/

Unbelievable!!  Israel is in the news everyday, the people of the Arab world are rising against their Kingdoms, nations are rising against nations, famines are building, disease and pestilence are taking over, massive earthquakes, tidal waves and tornadoes.....EVERYTHING THE BIBLE told us to watch for is happening....and yet IT CAN ONLY BE EXPLAINED BY GLOBAL WARMING!!

"My people perish for lack of knowledge". 

Lord forgive this lost generation.  We know not what we do.

Worst President....EVER!

One of the things we admire about ex-UN ambassador John Bolton is his willingness to tell it like it is.  Of course the politically correct cringe....but we like it.

Today's headline from the Jerusalem Post has John Bolton saying that Obama is the worst president EVER when it comes to U.S. relations with Israel.

Bolton: Obama worst president for Israel – ever

US President Barack Obama is “the most anti-Israel president in the history of the state, without any question,” John Bolton, the former US envoy to the UN and a man considering entering the presidential race against Obama, told The Jerusalem Post on Tuesday.

“If you think that this is just a misunderstanding of where the green crayon went in 1949, then think again,” Bolton said of Obama. Bolton’s comments came during a meeting he had with the Post’s editorial board.

Bolton, who is currently a fellow at the American Enterprise Institute and a Fox News commentator, said that Obama bought in to what he said was the “European line” that if you make progress between Israel and the Palestinians “sweetness and light” will break out in the region, and every other problem from Iran to terrorism will be easier to solve.

“I think that is like looking through the wrong end of the telescope,” he said.

Two huge problems here...number 1 is that the USA will get cursed if we continue on the path to cursing Israel.  Number 2 problem is the idea of how CLUELESS Obama is if he believes that sweetness and light can EVER break out in Muslim lands.  They are worshipping the wrong god and the spirit of the god they worship (given by the Prince of the earth) is terribly anti-Israel and anti-Jesus.

We need to continue praying that Muslims will continue coming to Jesus and also we need to continue praying for our leaders.  I know our political leaders seem hopelessly lost but that doesn't mean we can quit praying for them.

Perilous Times In Overdrive

This article was so thought provoking (and good) that I am posting it in it's entirety.  Many of you probably have seen it because it came from Jan Markell's email last week.

Why Perilous Times Are in Overdrive

By Bill Wilson

www.dailyjot.com

www.olivetreeviews.org

The US president appears to have embarked on a deliberate strategy to embrace radical Islam by partnering with Islamic organizations calling for the demise of the United States, and by assigning Islamists to key strategic positions that oversee the security of the nation, aspects of the judiciary, and as intimate aides to high level administration appointees. The Administration's public position is that these relationships are in the best interest of the United States in promoting tolerance in America and democracy in the Middle East. In reality, they raise poignant and unthinkable questions as to whether this president has violated his oath of office and several U.S. laws by facilitating an Islamic takeover of America.

One need look no further than the Administration's embracing of the Muslim Brotherhood (MB) and high level appointments of Muslims who are directly associated with the MB or have ties to organizations associated with the MB. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's top aid since 1996 is Huma Abedin. Former Palestinian terrorist now converted Christian Walid Shoebat says that Abedin was never properly screened.

Shoebat reports that Abedin "is closely associated with her Muslim Brotherhood family and even joined Clinton at an event with her mother, Saleha Abedin, at Dar El-Hekma College in Saudi Arabia. Also present was a close associate of Saleha Abedin -- Suheir Qureshi. Qureshi's name later appeared in several prominent Arab newspapers when it was revealed that she belonged to a list of 63 members of the secret arm of the Muslim Brotherhood called The Sisterhood. The full list was later revealed -- Huma Abedin's mother is on it. Huma's brother -- Hassan Abedin -- also collaborates with Omar Naseef and Sheikh Yusuf al-Qaradawi, two of the most influential terror supporters in the world."

Clinton recently overruled the Immigration and Nationality Act by allowing Tariq Ramadan entry into the United States. Ramadan, described as an independent power center within the MB, is the grandson of the founder of the MB. He has been banned from traveling in the US since 2004 for his contributions to Hamas and links to radical Islamists.

Clinton also announced on the eve of the July 4th holiday that the United States welcomes dialogue with the MB, prompting this response from Frank Gaffney, Jr. at the Center for Security Policy: "The Obama administration chose the eve of the holiday marking our nation's birth to acknowledge publicly behavior in which it has long been stealthily engaged to the United States' extreme detriment: Its officials now admit that they are embracing the Muslim Brotherhood (MB or Ikhwan in Arabic). That would be the same international Islamist organization that has the destruction of the United States, Israel and all other parts of the Free World as its explicit objective."

The MB was founded in 1928 to establish global Sharia Law through jihad. The Administration states that the MB denounces violence and promotes democracy. In reality, the MB is the umbrella organization that supports various terrorist groups including Hamas, Hezbollah, and al Qaeda. For example, Egyptian Ayman al-Zawahiri, al Qaeda's new commander, joined the MB when he was 14. The MB also has an extensive network in the United States through various vassal organizations including: Muslim American Society, Islamic Society of North America, Muslim Students Association, Muslim Businessmen Association, Muslim Youth of North America, Mercy International Association, Islamic Circle of North America, Muslim Arab Youth Association, The Association of Muslim Social Scientists. The Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR) is closely associated with many of these organizations.

The MB, with a public facade of non-violence, promotes democracy as a landing point to gain political control and establish Sharia Law, as its supported terrorist groups did so aptly in Gaza with Hamas and in Lebanon with Hezbollah. Currently, its targets are Egypt, Tunisia, Libya, Yemen, Jordan, Syria, and the United States of America.

The MB was exposed in the Holy Land Foundation trial in 2007. Documents provided as evidence in the trial indicated a plan to take over the United States. The plan, written in 1991, calls for Islamists to colonize America with Islamic Centers, schools, elected officials, and court cases. It seeks to establish a "civilization-jihadist process." It outlines how "work in America is a kind of grand jihad in eliminating and destroying the Western civilization from within and 'sabotaging' its miserable house..." The plan is using so-called "moderate" Muslim groups to establish a beachhead in the U.S. and then radical elements to take over.

MB-supported elected officials are found across America in local offices. At the national level, the first Muslim elected to Congress, Minnesota Democrat Keith Ellison, is an MB-supported candidate. The Muslim American Society (aka MB) paid for Ellison's Hajj pilgrimage to Mecca. The MB ties also extended deep into then-Senator Barack Obama's presidential campaign. In October 2008, Fox News reported that the Obama campaign was filled with associates of the MB. Fox reported that Minha Husaini replaced Mazen Asbahi as Obama's Muslim liaison after Asbahi resigned over revelations that groups linked to the MB featured him as a speaker. Fox reported that Husaini also met with groups tied to the MB and Hamas in Virginia on September 15, 2008.

Since the campaign, the Administration has redoubled its efforts to appoint Muslims to high government positions. The Congressional Muslim Staffers Association, now disbanded because of its ties to radical Islamists, vetted potential appointments "under the radar," according to J. Saleh Williams, who headed the effort.

The result is a tremendous number of Islamists sitting at key strategic positions in the federal government and on the judiciary. Included are: David Heyman, nominated as Assistant Secretary for Policy at the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS), and at the same agency, Secretary Janet Napolitano has appointed Arif Alikhan as Assistant Secretary for Policy Development. According to Newsmax, "both men are devout, Shariah Law Muslims, and in her announcement, Napolitano made that very clear...Alikan is associated with the Muslim Public Affairs Council (MPAC) "a public service agency working for the civil rights of American Muslims." BOTH men will have top security clearances. Several Muslims at the DHS who have top security clearances are associated with groups that claim Hamas and Hezbollah are "humanitarian" organizations.

And such appointments continue. The president has appointed Hezbollah favorite Abed Hammoud as Assistant United States Attorney for the Eastern District of Michigan. In the past, he has said that Israelis are like Nazis. He has led marches against Israel. The pro-Hezbollah Arab-American News in Dearborn, Mi reported that Hammoud led marchers against Israel who were chanting "Down, down Israel!" and "Death to Israel!" The newspaper quoted Hammoud saying, "Other than our own leaders, Israel pulls us together like no one else can." Hammoud added to cheers, "We don't believe Hezbullah is a terrorist organization. We obey the law, we don't give them financial support or provide them with aid, but we think this law needs to be changed."

Israel National News (INN) reported on June 20 that the president appointed Azizah al-Hibri to the United States Commission on International Religious Freedom. al-Hibri believes that Sharia Law is superior to Western Law, no surprise since she sat on the National Advisory Board of the American Muslim Council. INN reported that in 2001, "Al-Hibri traveled to the Afghan border and criticized the Western press for 'sensationalizing' Taliban atrocities and using them 'as an opportunity to attack Islam'. After the attacks of September 11, she cautioned against bombing Al-Qaeda and Taliban targets during Ramadan."

Former CIA agent and current professor for the Centre for Counterintelligence and Security Studies, Clare Lopez, concludes that the Administration has quietly installed Islamists in key security and foreign policy positions who are now directing the Middle East foreign policy of the United States.

The evidence appears overwhelming that the radical Islamist influence assembled by this White House is in lock step with the Muslim Brotherhood plan to takeover America. Perhaps the unthinkable has become reality. As the prophet Jeremiah spoke of ancient Babylon that had many of the same traits of today's post-moral America, "Surely I will fill thee with men, as with locusts; and they shall raise a battle cry against thee" (Jer.51:14). The evidence is in plain sight, but how long will it take for America to awaken from her politically correct slumber?

"Know this, that in the last days, perilous times shall come" (II Timothy 3:1).

Republicans--No Deal While Obama In Office

As Minnesota continues its grinding government halt...the Federal Government seems like it might be unable to avoid its own grinding halt.

These words from Republican leaders are pretty serious...and we can't go too many more days before a Federal shut down becomes inevitable.

The Senate's top Republican said Tuesday that he did not see a way for Republicans and Democrats to come to agreement on meaningful deficit reduction as long as President Obama remains in office.

"After years of discussions and months of negotiations, I have little question that as long as this president is in the Oval Office, a real solution is probably unattainable," Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell said in remarks on the Senate floor.

The remarks come as negotiations between Republicans and Democrats intensify on long-term deficit reduction ahead of a looming deadline on how much the United States can legally borrow.

"The president has presented us with three choices: smoke and mirrors, tax hikes, or default. Republicans choose none of the above. I had hoped to do good, but I refuse to do harm. So Republicans will choose a path that actually reflects the will of the people, which is to do the responsible thing and ensure that the government doesn't default on its obligations," he said.

It is interesting that when Obama presented his budget to the Senate a few months ago it was voted down 97-0....meaning there wasn't even a Democrat who liked it.  But yet he is now holding himself out as the parent in the room...and the Congress is all the little kids who need to "eat their peas".  No wonder the Republicans are so upset.

I had a pretty good idea that Obama would be bad for this country...but I didn't realize how quickly it would go from bad to worse.

As I tell folks...we were already driving towards the abyss before Obama took the steering wheel, but now that he has the wheel, its like he has locked all the doors, pushed the pedal to the floor and is going to do his level best to make sure we drive off it all full speed.  And that means ALL OF US.

Iran Warns Turkey of Israeli Plot

Anytime you see Iran and Turkey in the same headline, make sure you pay attention.  Remember these are a few of the named players in the Ezekiel 38 coalition and Ezekiel clearly saw these two countries (along with others) gathering all their soldiers with the idea to destroy Israel...and this will happen in the Last Days.

Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has warned Turkey of "plots" by the United States and Israel in the ongoing unrest in the Arabic world, the ISNA news agency reported Tuesday.


"We should be careful not to follow the U.S. plans and plots as all the Americans are after is their own economic interests and saving the Zionist regime (Israel)," Ahmadinejad was quoted as having told Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu in a meeting late Monday.


"All states should try their best in limiting the activities of the Zionist regime (Israel) as otherwise they would commit political suicide," Ahmadinejad said.


See it here; http://www.haaretz.com/news/diplomacy-defense/iran-warns-of-israeli-u-s-plots-amid-arab-world-unrest-1.372822

And remember as well.....Iran is RUNNING towards it's development of a nuclear weapon.  They already successfully tested huge ICBM's last week with over a 1200 mile range.  All they need now is a nuclear warhead to screw on the top and their promises of "imagining a world without Israel and without the USA" are going to become more of a reality IN THEIR MINDS...which makes them VERY dangerous.

Finding Goliath

It's interesting that as the signs of the last days continue to increase in frequency....what's also increasing is archaeological facts that continue to prove that the Bible is telling the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth....so help it God.

Of course the Arab/Muslim world continues with its propaganda that there were never Jews in the land even though all the history books and now unearthed coins, burial sites and cities seem to confirm exactly what the Bible was telling us all along.

In today's news we find that the ancient Philistines (of which Goliath was the most famous) really were EXACTLY where the Bible says they were.

TEL EL-SAFI, Israel (The Blaze/AP) — At the remains of an ancient metropolis in southern Israel, archaeologists are piecing together the history of a people remembered chiefly as the bad guys of the Hebrew Bible.


The city of Gath, where the annual digging season began this week, is helping scholars paint a more nuanced portrait of the Philistines, who appear in the biblical story as the perennial enemies of the Israelites.


Close to three millennia ago, Gath was on the frontier between the Philistines, who occupied the Mediterranean coastal plain, and the Israelites, who controlled the inland hills. The city’s most famous resident, according to the book of Samuel, was Goliath – the giant warrior improbably felled by the young shepherd David and his slingshot.


The Philistines arrived by sea from the area of modern-day Greece around 1200 B.C. They went on to rule major ports at Ashkelon and Ashdod, now cities in Israel, and at Gaza, now part of the Palestinian territory known as the Gaza Strip.


See it here;  http://www.theblaze.com/stories/finding-goliath-archaeologists-uncover-details-about-the-bibles-bad-guy-philistines/


I'm reminded of the story of the rich man who went to hell as told in the Gospel of Luke.  He told Abraham to send a messenger to the living to tell them that hell is real and very hot.  But Abraham says to the rich man that even if someone was sent back from the dead...the living wouldn't believe it anyway.  They had the prophets and the Word of God and they refused to believe.


Sounds eerily close to what is happening today.  We can see the signs all around us that Jesus told us to watch for and we can see the Biblical stories being confirmed before our very eyes...but still this generation continues to go about life as if nothing could ever possibly change...exactly as it was in the days of Noah.
