French Soldiers Killed by Burqa Bomber

Remember last year when the French government made the Muslims really mad by banning the burqa?  With today's headline the French are really going to be anti-burqa...and of course the French will run away from their NATO responsibilities....because they are French and have expected the USA to pay for and defend their freedom ever since they were overrun by Hitler.

A Taliban suicide bomber disguised as a woman and wearing a burqa has killed four French soldiers In Afghanistan.

French forces were responding to a report of a bomb planted under a bridge. They were in the main market area of the Nijrab district in eastern Kapisa province when the bomber walked up to them and detonated his explosives, said Qais Qadri, a provincial government spokesman.

France has said it plans to pull its 3,300 troops out of Afghanistan by the end of the year, well before the 2014 goal for the majority of Nato combat troops to have left the country. Kapisa province has been a particularly deadly posting for French troops. In January, an Afghan soldier shot and killed four French troops on a base in the province.

I'm going to make a prediction here, a very humble prediction....if the Lord tarries and we are allowed to witness the events on planet earth for another 10 years....I believe that war will break out in Europe.  When the Euro fails and the illusion of European unity vanishes...nationalism will break out in full force.  The Greeks will rally around the Greeks and they will start hating their ancient enemies the Turks....the French will start waving their flags and they will blame the Germans for their hardships caused by France's mismanagement of their finances, etc...

We are already seeing evidence of this by watching European soccer games.  The fans of one country are getting violent towards the fans of the other country.  A few weeks ago, almost the entire stand of Hungarian fans stood up and did the Hitler salute before the game...and at halftime they all spilled over the guardrails and started beating on anyone who wasn't white.

History seems ready to repeat itself....and this time maybe it will be the Antichrist that pulls things back in order.

Earth May be Near Tipping Point

If you didn't know this already, the Los Angeles Times is hear to tell you.

Earth may be near tipping point, scientists warn

A group of scientists warns that population growth, climate change and environmental damage are pushing Earth toward calamitous and irreversible changes.

A group of international scientists is sounding a global alarm, warning that population growth, climate change and environmental destruction are pushing Earth toward calamitous — and irreversible — biological changes.

"Humans are now forcing another such transition, with the potential to transform Earth rapidly and irreversibly into a state unknown in human experience," wrote the authors, who are from the U.S., Europe, Canada and South America.

"We have created a bubble of human population and economy … that is totally unsustainable and is either going to have to deflate gradually or is going to burst," said co-author James Brown, a distinguished professor of biology at the University of New Mexico. "If it's going to burst, the consequences are really going to be grim for people as well as biodiversity and the rest of the planet."

Forty years ago, the Club of Rome think tank caused a stir when it argued that there were limits to world growth. In 1968, Paul Ehrlich, now a professor of population studies at Stanford University, warned of the dangers of overpopulation in his book "The Population Bomb."

"This is what scientists saw in the '60s and '70s," said Mikael Fortelius, a professor of evolutionary paleontology at the University of Helsinki in Finland and one of the paper's authors. "We've never been quite sure when it would happen. We're there now."

Yes, something is going on...and it seems to be caused by too many people.  I wonder if that's one reason that the people left behind may be really happy to see millions of folks leave planet earth when the rapture of the church happens?  Remember, there is a group of people who worship Mother Earth who believe that she is getting ready to "purge" millions of people...as this is simply one other possible explanation that Satan has been working on to explain away the rapture...and to deceive those who have been left behind.

Tear Up Your Paper Money

If you are in any way interested in what is going on in Europe and the possible meltdown of the Euro currency...then this is a great article that is pretty easy reading written by Jim Jubak of MSN Money.

Of course, he cuts right to the chase in explaining that all paper currency is simply based on trust, and if the people lose trust in the government that is printing the paper, they will flee the currency....and you may as well tear up your paper money. 

Modern currency is nothing without trust that governments that use it will back it. And if the once-strong euro can break, what is safe?

So what is it about money that the leaders of the eurozone don't get?

Money has been around for a while, and it's not terribly complicated.

The key element is trust. That was true when money was a piece of metal that you could bite or bounce. Now that money is just a piece of paper, it's even truer. Today's money is nothing but trust.

And it's as if the leaders of the eurozone wanted to go out of their way to prove it. They've taken us up to the velvet curtain and then themselves, with a self-satisfied smile, pulled it aside to show us that there is no Great Oz.

And in the process they've done major, and perhaps irretrievable, damage to their own currency and to the very idea of money in our time. If you can't trust the euro, what paper can you trust?

And if the euro can dissolve, if the eurozone can go back to Deutschmarks and drachmas, then why should we have faith in any paper currency? The breakup of the euro won't mean the breakup of the dollar or the yen or the real, but it sure would accelerate the search for a more secure depository of value than paper money. Even one that proclaims "In God we trust."

Here;  http://money.msn.com/investment-advice/tear-up-your-paper-money-jubak.aspx

So here we have a writer right in the middle of mainstream media clearly claiming that this whole "thing" called a financial system is clearly based on trust...and he is looking around the world asking who is it that we can trust to hold all of our hard work and savings represented in a piece of paper.

Of course by asking this question, he opens the door to reveal why the world will soon be looking for another currency....because it appears even he believes that the currencies currently in use around the world are tenuous.

Can you see where the Antichrist is going to come in and make a new one-world-currency?  Can you see why people will be so willing to take the mark that will be required to use this currency?

It all seems to be falling into place.

Genetic Tests for Unborn Babies

The headlines today is that scientists are working on, and may have already discovered, a genetic test for 18 week old fetuses that could reveal 3500 different genetic "faults"....and it may be as easy as a saliva test for mom and dad! 

Can imagine if you give a 22 year old pregnant woman access to these test results and she has to go home and page through thousands of potential "problems" with her baby and then decide whether to kill it while it's still young enough.  (sorry, I mean "abort it")

A team has been able to predict the whole genetic code of a foetus by taking a blood sample from a woman who was 18 weeks pregnant, and a swab of saliva from the father.

They believe that, in time, the test will become widely available, enabling doctors to screen unborn babies for some 3,500 genetic disorders.

At the moment the only genetic disorder routinely tested for on the NHS is Down’s syndrome.

By contrast, the scientists say their new test would identify far more conditions, caused by genetic errors.

However, they warned it raised “many ethical questions” because the results could be used as a basis for abortion.

Such natural mutations - called ‘de novo’ mutations - are responsible for the majority of genetic defects.

By checking their prediction of the baby’s genetic code with actual DNA taken after the birth, the team from the University of Washington in Seattle, found they were able to identify 39 of 44 such mutations in the child.

De novo mutations are thought to play a role in a number of complex conditions such as autism and schizophrenia.

The team also tested their approach on a woman who was earlier in her pregnancy than 18 weeks, and found it still worked.

Here;  http://www.telegraph.co.uk/health/healthnews/9315265/Unborn-babies-could-be-tested-for-3500-genetic-faults.html

Now imagine this....what if the test can ultimately isolate a "gay gene"...which is an "abnormality?"  What if the gay community were to find out that 99.9% of the average 22 year old pregnant women would CHOOSE TO ABORT their fetus if they found it was going to be gay?

Technically, you could eliminate gayness in a few generations since gay men and women can't reproduce.

Now here would be the major irony of this whole scenario:  Of course the gay community is overwhelmingly PRO CHOICE.  But if they found women were testing for (and killing) gay fetuses....they would immediately have to become PRO LIFE...and all the homosexuals would all of a sudden be sharing the platform with Christian evangelicals and Neo-Con conservatives!!!

That would be a hoot.

Seriously, mankind is so lost.  If this test gets approved and perfected, soon women will be aborting kids who MIGHT have ADD!  (Attention Deficit Disorder) 

"Miss, we have some terrible news for you about your fetus.  There is a very good chance that he won't sit still in public school and he may be a menace on the playground and he may have to take drugs his entire life simply to focus on reading.  Do you think you can handle a child like that?  Do you think it's fair to society to bring another one of those kids into the world?"

Half the kids in public schools today are on meds for ADD...can you imagine if we had aborted all of them?

President Invokes Jesus' Name

Sorry...if you thought this was going to be a post about President Obama asking for Jesus' blessing on this nation and encouraging people to read their Bibles....it's not.  I'm pretty sure those statements don't exist.

Instead, it is a video tribute to President Reagan and the many things he said while in office that encouraged us to pray to Jesus and read our Bibles. 

Watch 4 minute video here;  http://www.youtube.com/embed/OvN1jTkzXbY?rel=0

Now lets look back at America's history and imagine if the nation WOULD HAVE LISTENED to President Reagan?  Maybe we wouldn't be in this place where our current President is advocating gay marriage...maybe we wouldn't have become the society that went so far into debt that now we are facing collapse.  Maybe we wouldn't have been a society that is addicted to porn, heinous drugs and painkillers?  Maybe we would have turned the tide on abortion and made it so that women understand that Jesus knew us before he placed us in our mother's womb?

And finally, remember it was President Reagan who commissioned the bi-partisan committee on the solvency of Social Security.  They looked into the numbers over 26 years ago, and they told us that the program needs drastic reforms or it will implode....if only we would have listened...how different our nation may be today.

Implosion of America?

Best selling author, Joel Rosenberg, has a new book coming out next week called, "Implosion: Can America Recover from our Economic and Spiritual Challenges in Time?"  Many of you recieve Rosenberg's email updates and in the one that came today Joel seems to have an increased sense of urgency...probably because he also noticed all the zombie/cannibalism stories last week along with the rest of us.

The world is getting so bizzare and things are happening so fast...it makes one wonder if we are already in the implosion that Rosenberg writes about?


CULTURAL COLLAPSE? CANNIBALISM, "MOMMY PORN," GAY RIGHTS, ABORTION DRIVING U.S. HEADLINES THIS WEEK

What in the world is going on?

Joel C. Rosenberg
(Washington, D.C., June 7, 2012) -- Forget the stagnant American economy and our severe debt crisis and the rapidly mounting troubles in Greece and Spain, at least for a moment. Consider what's driving the news just this week:

* Pornography -- Did you know the #1, #2 and #3 books on Amazon today (June 6) are the "Fifty Shades of Grey" novels that are being widely described as "Mommy Porn" and have already sold more than 10 million copies in just six weeks? Yes, you read that right - 10 million copies in six weeks. (see "Hotel in 'Mommy Porn' novel offering 50 Shades-themed packages," Fox Oregon, May 23, 2012; "How 'Fifty Shades of Grey' Is Shaking Up the Business of the Romance Genre," The Daily Beast, June 6, 2012)

* Cannibalism -- "Exclusive: Causeway Cannibal Had Bible, Recently Smoked Pot When He Attacked," CBS Miami, June 6, 2012

* Cannibalism --- "Cannibal Copycat? Police Say Man High On Bath Salts Threatened To Eat Officer," CBS Tampa, June 6, 2012

* Cannibalism -- "Cannibalism Trend Can Feed On Itself, Experts Say: 6 Acts Of Human Consumption Draw Lurid Attention," ABC Indianapolis, June 6, 2012

* Gay Rights -- "Prop. 8: appeals courts set stage for Supreme Court review of gay marriage," Christian Science Monitor, June 6, 2012

* Abortion -- "President Obama, 168 House Members Defend Sex-Selection Abortion," National Right To Life news story, May 31, 2012

What in the world is going on? Yes, we face the very real possibility of an economic collapse in the not-too-distant future. But is it possibly we're already imploding culturally? The country is deep in a full blown political war between Democrats and Republicans, but do we honestly believe either party -- or either presidential nominee -- knows how to fix the mess we're in?And where is the Church? In a nation of tens of millions of self-professed born-again, evangelical Christians, how can we be in so much trouble? And is there any hope of turning this around?

Next week, on Tuesday, my new book release, "Implosion: Can America Recover From Our Economic and Spiritual Challenges In Time?" I was going to start writing about these moral and cultural issues then. But they cannot wait. Here are a few excerpts from the book:

* "These are not normal times. Americans have been gripped by a widespread and deeply rooted pessimism in recent years. They are open asking whether our nation can survive....A growing number of Americans fear that this period of our history is different and the crises we face today -- and those coming up over the horizon -- may be far worse than anything we have experienced in the past....Many Americans genuinely fear that God is preparing to removed his hand of protection and blessing from our country, or perhaps already has. The fear that unlike previous dark times in our national history, God may not intend to help us turn things around and get us back on the right track....

* "We must not kid ourselves. The evidence suggests we may very well be aboard the Titanic, heading for icebergs and inexplicably increasing our speed toward disaster. So many on board are unaware of the dangers fast approaching and not concerned in the slightest. We haven't hit the icebergs yet, but if we don't make a sharp turn fast, we soon will, and we will sink. Who will serve as our captain and crew going forward? Will they understand the gravity of the threat and have the wisdom, courage and speed to take appropriate action before it is too late? What is our role as passengers? Are we to succumb to decadence...."

Crisis of Confidence on its way

Now really....how bad is the U.S. debt?  Aren't all the Neo-Con folks just making up nasty figures in an attempt to make Obama look bad so they can kick him out?  Poor Obama didn't have a chance because he has been cleaning up after that idiot George Bush and the two needless wars he sunk us into.

And that's how the debate goes.

However, math doesn't lie....and the math in the USA is looking like it will soon drag us over the abyss...where we can join Greece, Spain, Italy and other nations who couldn't stop their spending addictions.

Remember a week or two ago, when President Obama was claiming to be a fiscal skinflint because some online columnist said so? That was fun. On Tuesday the Congressional Budget Office released a view more tethered to reality, and let's just say this will not be showing up in one of the President's campaign ads.

The CBO's long-term budget outlook notes that federal debt held by the public—the kind we have to pay back—will surge to 70% of the economy by the end of this year. That's the highest share of GDP in U.S. history except World War II, as the nearby chart indicates, higher than during the Civil War or World War I. It's also way up from 40% in 2008 and from the 40-year average of 38%.

We have never been deficit scolds, preferring to focus on the more important policy priorities of economic growth and spending restraint. But the Obama era is taking America to a place it has never been. Inside of a decade the country will have a debt-to-GDP ratio well into the 90% to 100% danger zone where economists say the economy begins to slow and risks mount.

CBO notes with its famous dry wit that this level of debt increases "the probability of a sudden fiscal crisis, during which investors would lose confidence in the government's ability to manage its budget and the government would thereby lose its ability to borrow at affordable rates."

Here;  http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052702303830204577448483262804106.html?mod=googlenews_wsj

There's that word again that is so important to the sustenance of our nation's finances.....CONFIDENCE!  Notice also how the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) says there could be a "sudden fiscal crisis" unless we quickly adjust our sails and get off the current tack we are on.

Yes, Obama is certainly taking us to a place that America has never been.  And yes, America has elected the leaders that we deserve.

I wonder if America will be able to navigate in this new place we have never been without calling on our Creator to support us, lead us and guide us?  I wonder if we can just push through this whole thing simply based on the power and wisdom of man?

FDR's D-Day Prayer

With the anniversary of D-Day being today, it is amazing to read what the President of the United States prayed.  He prayed this prayer for the ENTIRE NATION to hear.  Please remember that this President was a Democrat. 

My fellow Americans: Last night, when I spoke with you about the fall of Rome, I knew at that moment that troops of the United States and our allies were crossing the Channel in another and greater operation. It has come to pass with success thus far.

And so, in this poignant hour, I ask you to join with me in prayer:

Almighty God: Our sons, pride of our Nation, this day have set upon a mighty endeavor, a struggle to preserve our Republic, our religion, and our civilization, and to set free a suffering humanity.

Lead them straight and true; give strength to their arms, stoutness to their hearts, steadfastness in their faith.

They will need Thy blessings. Their road will be long and hard. For the enemy is strong. He may hurl back our forces. Success may not come with rushing speed, but we shall return again and again; and we know that by Thy grace, and by the righteousness of our cause, our sons will triumph.

They will be sore tried, by night and by day, without rest-until the victory is won. The darkness will be rent by noise and flame. Men's souls will be shaken with the violences of war.

For these men are lately drawn from the ways of peace. They fight not for the lust of conquest. They fight to end conquest. They fight to liberate. They fight to let justice arise, and tolerance and good will among all Thy people. They yearn but for the end of battle, for their return to the haven of home.

Some will never return. Embrace these, Father, and receive them, Thy heroic servants, into Thy kingdom.

And for us at home -- fathers, mothers, children, wives, sisters, and brothers of brave men overseas -- whose thoughts and prayers are ever with them--help us, Almighty God, to rededicate ourselves in renewed faith in Thee in this hour of great sacrifice.

Many people have urged that I call the Nation into a single day of special prayer. But because the road is long and the desire is great, I ask that our people devote themselves in a continuance of prayer. As we rise to each new day, and again when each day is spent, let words of prayer be on our lips, invoking Thy help to our efforts.

Give us strength, too -- strength in our daily tasks, to redouble the contributions we make in the physical and the material support of our armed forces.

And let our hearts be stout, to wait out the long travail, to bear sorrows that may come, to impart our courage unto our sons wheresoever they may be.

And, O Lord, give us Faith. Give us Faith in Thee; Faith in our sons; Faith in each other; Faith in our united crusade. Let not the keenness of our spirit ever be dulled. Let not the impacts of temporary events, of temporal matters of but fleeting moment let not these deter us in our unconquerable purpose.

With Thy blessing, we shall prevail over the unholy forces of our enemy. Help us to conquer the apostles of greed and racial arrogancies. Lead us to the saving of our country, and with our sister Nations into a world unity that will spell a sure peace a peace invulnerable to the schemings of unworthy men. And a peace that will let all of men live in freedom, reaping the just rewards of their honest toil.

Thy will be done, Almighty God.

Amen.

Can you imagine the outcry if President Obama (Democrat) prayed a prayer like this today?  Can you begin to understand how far America has fallen away from God in these past 68 years?  Will God be there the next time to protect our nation if our leaders today would never DREAM to invoke His name and ask for His blessing?

Father, forgive us.  We are a rebellious and adulterous nation.  We have ceased worshiping you and instead have chosen to worship the blessings You have given us.  If those blessings need to be removed so that we can see YOU more clearly once again...Thy will be done.

"2013 is Going to be Very Bad"

There is a famous investor, billionaire named Jim Rogers.  He has been sounding the alarm for some time now that our financial house of cards is teetering. 

Investors hoping for a rising stock market next year are going to be disappointed, according to famed investor and author Jim Rogers.

In a recent interview with Fox Business, Rogers said ominously that “2013 is going to be very bad. God knows what’s going to happen in 2014.”
When asked why next year is going to be so bad, Rogers didn’t mince words.

“The election is going to be over,” he said.

Rogers said that the government is printing huge amounts of money, and spending huge amounts of money, in an attempt to gain four more years in office.

“Next year is going to be very bad in the American stock market. Remember, we have an election this year. The government is doing everything it can to get re-elected. So next year is going to be a disaster,” Rogers added.
Here; http://www.moneynews.com/StreetTalk/Aftershock-rogers-economy-worse/2012/05/24/id/440190?PROMO_CODE=F01F-1

Yes, the problem with bubbles is that you know they will ultimately pop...but it is very hard to say exactly when.  However, WE KNOW that printing paper money that is only backed by promises made by politicians IS NOT going to end well.

As one analyst says near the end of this article; 

At one point, Wiedemer even calls out Bernanke, saying that his “money from heaven will be the path to hell.”

Friends, America has a serious financial problem and the only solution is a spiritual one.   If Americans would humble themselves and seek God's face then HE could heal our land.  But if we continue holding out hope that the folly of men will soon come up with a solution to what ails us....chances are we are going to be disappointed.

CDC Confirms NO Zombie Apocalypse

Whew!  I'm glad the Center for Disease Control came out with a statement today telling us all that the Zombie Apocalypse HAS NOT STARTED.  After 4 days of headlines that included people eating people and one dude throwing his intestines at police....I was starting to wonder.

Watch video here;  http://video.foxnews.com/v/1672867586001/cdc-confirms-there-is-no-zombie-apocalypse-underway?intcmp=features

Yesterday there was a rumor starting to circulate that a certain virus had infected these people and it was making them engage in Zombie-like behavior....so the CDC decided they better come out and reassure folks that their IS NOT a zombie-causing virus.

The fact that the CDC had to issue this statement testifies to how strange planet earth has become.

Jesus Loves Porn Stars

The Bible tells us that in the Last Days men will surround themselves with teachers who tell them what their itchy ears want to hear.  So what is it that we all want to hear today?

We want to be told that Jesus loves us JUST AS WE ARE.  We want to be told that WE DON'T HAVE TO CHANGE.  We want to be told that HELL DOESN'T EXIST.  And most importantly, we want to be told that REPENTANCE ISN'T NECESSARY to follow Christ.

So should it surprise us that one of the most famous porn stars in the world, Ron Jeremy, is speaking at a church in Southern California....and it appears it is not a message of how Jesus pulled him away from porn, but that Jesus loves porn stars right where they are...no change is necessary.

On Sunday, June 10, adult film star Ron Jeremy returns to the Rock Church in San Diego, California for an interview with Pastor Miles McPherson on how Jesus loves porn stars. Jeremy and XXXchurch pastor Craig Gross will be featured as part of the Rock Church's "EXPOSED" message series challenging attendees to copy Jesus' model of unconditional love of the most broken and flawed—the famous and the infamous.

In 2010, Jeremy and XXXchurch pastor Craig Gross squared off at the Rock Church in a controversial debate on whether the pornography industry is beneficial or detrimental to our society and culture.

Here;  http://www.churchleaders.com/pastors/pastor-articles/161281-porn-star-to-speak-at-socal-church.html

Ummmm.....let me think about that for a second.....is the porn industry beneficial or detrimental to our society?.......ummmmmm......let's see.....is it good or bad that the average age for first exposure to porn is now 8 years old.....ummmmmmm......??

Holy man....we are a stupid bunch of people.

Israel Deploys Nuclear Weapons

This is pretty amazing and I already gave a link to the article on the previous posting about Damascus...but...this article deserves some of its own attention.

Remember that Germany almost single handed destroyed the Jewish race about 70 years ago.  Now it is being reported that Israel is being helped by Germany to deploy nuclear tipped cruise missiles on German made submarines!!

Germany is helping Israel to develop its military nuclear capabilities, SPIEGEL has learned. According to extensive research carried out by the magazine, Israel is equipping submarines that were built in the northern German city of Kiel and largely paid for by the German government with nuclear-tipped cruise missiles. The missiles can be launched using a previously secret hydraulic ejection system. Israeli Defence Minister Ehud Barak told SPIEGEL that Germans should be "proud" that they have secured the existence of the state of Israel "for many years."

In the past, the German government has always stuck to the position that it is unaware of nuclear weapons being deployed on the vessels. Now, however, former high-ranking officials from the German Defense Ministry, including former State Secretary Lothar Rühl and former chief of the planning staff Hans Rühle, have told SPIEGEL that they had always assumed that Israel would deploy nuclear weapons on the submarines. Rühl had even discussed the issue with the military in Tel Aviv.

Israel has a policy of not commenting officially on its nuclear weapons program. Documents from the archives of the German Foreign Ministry make it clear, however, that the German government has known about the program since 1961. The last discussion for which there is evidence took place in 1977, when then-Chancellor Helmut Schmidt spoke to then-Israeli Foreign Minister Moshe Dayan about the issue.

The submarines are built by the German shipyard HDW in Kiel. Three submarines have already been delivered to Israel, and three more will be delivered by 2017. In addition, Israel is considering ordering its seventh, eighth and ninth submarines from Germany.

Here;  http://www.spiegel.de/international/world/israel-deploys-nuclear-weapons-on-german-submarines-a-836671.html

The story of Samson is about a Jew who was captured by Israel's ancient enemy, the Philistines.  He had his eyes put out and was forced to dance to entertain his captors.  Samson prayed to God for one final burst of strength, which God gave him.  Samson pushed on the pillars that he was chained to and collapsed the entire theatre...killing 3000 Philistines but also knowing it would cause his own death.

The nation of Israel ALSO has a "Samson Option".  If they ever get to the point where they feel that their Arab/Islamic enemies are getting set to overrun the nation of Israel...they will launch the nuclear tipped cruise missiles from subs hidden all over the world and single handed make sure that the people who are destroying Israel will also be destroyed.

It's ironic that the Germans who nearly destroyed them using Hitler's Third Reich, are now making it possible for Israel to destroy its enemies.

I have an idea that all the Watchers in the heavens who are watching this grand drama play out between God and the forces of Satan, look at this irony and say, "Holy, Holy, Holy!  Our God is an awesome God!"

Destruction of Damascus Looms

As the President of Syria comes under mounting international pressure, his words of warnings to any any outside power that would interfere in his killing spree are growing more belligerent and more rebellious.

Syrian President Bashar al-Assad stressed to the UN envoy to Damascus Kofi Annan that "he isn't ready to offer new concessions to the international community."
He further confirmed that "the World states must acknowledge that they have no ability to confront Syria, because the international community is fully aware of what Damascus could do just a few hours after the first bullet is shelled on the Syrian capital."
The sources pointed out that President al-Assad cut more than once Annan's statements during the meeting, and he asked the Syrian personalities who attended the meeting to give Annan a pen and a paper so that the UN envoy would write al-Assad's messages to the international community.

"Syria is ready to face all the military options, and Damascus will shake the world as no conspirator political system will survive from the Middle East's earthquake," the Syrian President warned.

He further asked Annan to advise the Qatari and Saudi leaders not to tamper politically and via media with Syria.

Here;  http://www.abna.ir/data.asp?lang=3&id=319343

Remember that Damascus is home to every Jew-hating-Islamic-terrorist organization in the entire world.  They all have offices in Damascus so they can coordinate their plans to destroy Israel and kill the Jews.

Assad warns the world that he will ignite a firestorm in the Middle East a few minutes after the first foreign fired bullet falls into Syria.  What he doesn't realize is the the total destruction of Damascus is still on the horizon...and I'm guessing that as Assad prepares to launch his missiles into Israel in his attempt to "shake the world"....that destruction will come on him suddenly.

Maybe from an Israeli missile launched from a German-made submarine?

Israel Deploys Nuclear Weapons on German-Built Submarines

Cyberweapon War Warning Issued

It used to be that wars were fought with guns, tanks and men slugging it out.  Today we live in a world that is 100% reliant on computers.  They control virtually EVERYTHING that enables the Western world to function...from stoplights to power grids, from satellites to banking transactions.

So of course if a nation wanted to wipe out another nation they could design some type of virus to shut down its computers...and chaos would ensue.

With that as a backdrop, this headline that just appeared on Google News is interesting...and maybe prophetic.

Expert Issues a Cyberwar Warning

MOSCOW — When Eugene Kaspersky, the founder of Europe’s largest antivirus company, discovered the Flame virus that is afflicting computers in Iran and the Middle East, he recognized it as a technologically sophisticated virus that only a government could create.       

He also recognized that the virus, which he compares to the Stuxnet virus built by programmers employed by the United States and Israel, adds weight to his warnings of the grave dangers posed by governments that manufacture and release viruses on the Internet. 

“Cyberweapons are the most dangerous innovation of this century,” he told a gathering of technology company executives, called the CeBIT conference, last month in Sydney, Australia. While the United States and Israel are using the weapons to slow the nuclear bomb-making abilities of Iran, they could also be used to disrupt power grids and financial systems or even wreak havoc with military defenses.        

A growing array of nations and other entities are using online weapons, he says, because they are “thousands of times cheaper” than conventional armaments.

Can you imagine what would happen if power grids supplying major cities in the USA were shut down for days, weeks or months because of a cyber attack?

Isn't it interesting that NBC has been airing ads for its new TV series called REVOLUTION which is a series built around the story of a time in the future when all of the U.S. goes dark for years?

Certainly truth IS stranger than fiction.

      

"Thunder" Will Fall on Israel

As the rumors of war continue to build...the rhetoric continues to heat up.

TEHRAN: Any attack by Israel on Iran will blow back on the Jewish state “like thunder,” Iran’s supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, said on Sunday.

Khamenei also said that the international community’s suspicion that Iran was seeking nuclear weapons is based on a “lie” and he insisted that sanctions imposed on his country were ineffective and only strengthened its resolve.
His speech, broadcast on state television to mark death of his predecessor and founder of the Islamic republic, Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, contained no sign Iran was prepared to make any concessions on its disputed nuclear programme. Instead, it was infused with defiance and Khamenei’s customary contempt for Iran’s arch-foes Israel and the United States. If the Israelis “make any misstep or wrong action, it will fall on their heads like thunder,” Khamenei said. The Jewish state, he added, was feeling “vulnerable” and “terrified” after losing deposed Egyptian president Hosni Mubarak as an ally.

At one point in his speech, Khamenei declared it “forbidden to stop on the path to progress, in the political sphere and in the sphere of science and technology.” That carried the implication that Iran had no intention on scaling back its nuclear development.

It would certainly appear that a showdown is looming between the sons of Isaac (the son of promise) and their ancient arch enemy, Persia...now called Iran.

Western Education is a Sin

While many of us are getting ready for Sunday morning church, our brothers and sisters in Africa are under attack.

A suicide car bombing of a church on the outskirts of the northern Nigerian city of Bauchi seriously injured at least 40 people, according to the Red Cross.

The explosion happened at 10 a.m. local time at the Living Faith church in the Yelwan Tudu district, Adamu Abubakar, a Red Cross official, said in an interview in Bauchi today. Abubakar couldn’t immediately confirm how many people had died. Joseph Michael, a worshipper at the church, said he saw four people who died from the blast.

Authorities in Nigeria, Africa’s biggest oil producer, have blamed Boko Haram, which seeks to impose strict Islamic law in the country, for a surge in attacks since 2009 in the mainly Muslim north and the capital Abuja in which hundreds of people have died this year.

Boko Haram, whose name means “Western education is a sin,” claimed responsibility for multiple blasts and attacks in the northern city of Kano on Jan. 20 that killed at least 256 people and for the Aug. 26 suicide car-bombing of a United Nations office in Abuja in which 25 people died.

Nigeria, Africa’s most-populous country with more than 160 million people, is almost evenly split between the largely Muslim north and a predominantly Christian south.

So what's up?  Why do these Muslim groups want to keep all their people in the dark?  Why don't they want them to know how to read?  What do they have against churches?

Because Jesus said He came to bring Truth and Light...so that the Truth may set us free.  Free from what?...Satan's grasp.  Who doesn't want to lose his grip on us?  Satan.  So he sets out to organize a group of Muslims who call themselves "Western Education is a Sin"....and he convinces them to wrap themselves in explosives and blow up a bunch of folks who are sitting in church pews listening to the Truth.

But just remember friends....the media here in the USA insists that Islam is a religion of peace...and many of the mainline denominations are working overtime to promote the idea to their congregants that if we look hard enough we can find lots of similarities between Islam and Christianity.

Have we all lost our minds?  No....but this nation is certainly falling under a spell...a spell cast by the Prince of the Earth.

Jesus, please guard our hearts and minds.
