Democrats Skip Netanyahu's Speech

 Lord help us if the Democrats stay in control of the White House for another 4 years.  If they do they will take us further down the road of cursing Israel.  If you make a list of politicians who hate Israel and would just as soon stand with the Hamas supporters, you'll find they are all Democrats.

Please understand that I don't believe Trump as President will save America, but if Trump does make it into the White House he could delay our coming implosion for a few more years.

Elon Musk made a surprise appearance in Washington Wednesday for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s address to Congress, attending the event as Netanyahu’s guest.

Musk sat in Netanyahu’s private box in the visitors gallery above the House floor, alongside Netanyahu’s wife Sara, several Israeli soldiers and at least one former hostage of Hamas.

The Tesla Motors CEO’s visit to Capitol Hill came a day after he announced on X that his satellite internet company Starlink had been activated in a Gaza hospital, with the support of Israel and the United Arab Emirates.

Nine months into the Israel-Hamas war and the resulting humanitarian crisis in Gaza, Netanyahu’s speech has become a lightning rod of controversy, triggering an eruption of protests in Washington.

Shortly before Netanyahu was scheduled to begin speaking, U.S. Capitol Police announced they were “deploying pepper spray” against protesters who had “started to become violent” close to the Capitol.

Netanyahu scolded the protesters in his speech, calling them “Iran’s useful idiots.”

“These protesters chant from river to the sea, but many don’t have a clue what river and what sea they’re talking about.” Netanyahu said.

More than 30 members of Congress did not attend Netanyahu’s address, many of them skipping the event in protest of the Israeli prime minister’s approach to the Israel-Hamas war.

One of Netanyahu’s most vocal opponents in Congress, however, Rep. Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich., did attend the speech. At several points, Tlaib held up a sign that read “War Criminal.” The clear breach of House decorum reflects the deep and painful divisions in Congress over the prime minister’s leadership.

Though Harris attributed her Wednesday absence to travel, many of the at least 30 lawmakers said they skipped the speech to boycott Netanyahu. Several, including former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., said they would instead meet with families of hostages held by Hamas or attend a panel on Middle East peace and security.

“Netanyahu should not be welcomed into the United States Congress. On the contrary, his policies in Gaza and the West Bank and his refusal to support a two-state solution should be roundly condemned,” said Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., among the loudest critics of Netanyahu as the war carries on.

Wednesday’s speech was Netanyahu’s fourth address to Congress, the last of which took place in March 2015.

While the Prime Minister is on Capitol Hill, he will meet with the top four congressional lawmakers: House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y.

Kamala wasn't there but we will give her a pass as she's now busy running for President.  J.D. Vance wasn't there either because of travel/campaign reasons.

Netanyahu Calls for "NATO Type" Alliance to Combat Iran

 The players in Ezekiel 38 continue to be front page news about every single day.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu made a call for a regional defense alliance of nations to confront Iran in the Middle East.

He said it should include countries that “have made peace with Israel and those that will make peace with Israel” to confront Iran’s malign influence, spread of terrorism and military-grade nuclear ambitions.

Netanyahu said the region already “saw a glimpse of that alliance” on April 13, when Iran fired more than 300 missiles and explosive drones from its own territory towards Israel. A coalition of countries led by Israel and the United States, but also including Saudi Arabia, Jordan and Egypt, participated for a period of several hours to neutralize the threat.

The Israeli prime minister thanked U.S. President Joe Biden “for bringing that alliance together.”

In a briefing with the Israeli press delegation after his congressional speech on Wednesday afternoon, Netanyahu compared such a cohort to a “NATO-style alliance.” During the address, he said the unified group “would be a security coalition in every sense of the word.”

He said it would essentially be “an extension of the groundbreaking Abraham Accords,” which included normalization agreements signed in the fall of 2020 between Israel, the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Morocco and Sudan. And he suggested that the pact be called the “Abraham Alliance.”

Israel would likely attempt to recruit Saudi Arabia to join an alliance, whether or not Israel succeeds in signing a formal normalization agreement with the Sunni kingdom.

In his address, Netanyahu noted that Israel is currently fighting a war on multiple fronts against Hamas, Hezbollah and Houthis, all terrorist proxies funded and armed by Tehran, and even by Iran itself.

“In the Middle East,” Netanyahu said, “Iran is virtually behind all the terrorism, all the turmoil, all the chaos, all the killing.”

One day, maybe soon, Israel will be all alone and a major army consisting of Iran, Russia, Turkey and other Muslim nations will be on their border poised to destroy them.  America won't be there to protest.  But God will fight for Israel on that day and wipe out the invading forces.  It will likely be part of the supernatural awakening that the Jews will start to have that will bring them back to the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob and will ultimately lead all of the surviving Jews to recognize Jesus as their Messiah.  "Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord."

Elon Musk Says the US Dollar is Headed for Destruction

Today we read that one of the smartest men in the world is saying the dollar is going to be destroyed and that America is going bankrupt.  We always wondered why America was never mentioned in prophecy and now it’s becoming more clear.  When the rapture happens and millions of Americans vanish the dollar will collapse and America will be crushed.  She will no longer be capable of defending Israel or even sending bombs and munitions.  Israel will truly be all alone and the stage will be set.

****************

 "Where are we with dollar value destruction, you might ask," Musk posted to X alongside an image suggesting the U.S. is on the cusp of hyperinflation. "America is going bankrupt [by the way]," Musk added, replying to the cofounder of the meme-based bitcoin rival dogecoin who highlighted the soaring cost of interest payments on U.S. debt.

U.S. debt interest payments are forecast to hit $870 billion this year, according to a recent analysis by the Congressional Budget Office, after soaring inflation pushed the Federal Reserve to hike interest rates at a never-before-seen clip in the aftermath of huge Covid-era spending and money-printing.

Earlier this year, Bank of America analysts warned the U.S. debt load is about to ramp up to add $1 trillion every 100 days—fueling a bitcoin price surge.

"The U.S. national debt is rising by $1 trillion every 100 days," Michael Hartnett, chief strategist of Bank of America, wrote in a note to clients seen by CNBC, adding it's "little wonder 'debt debasement' trades [such as gold and bitcoin are] closing in on all-time highs."

Fake Alien Invasion Coming as False Flag?

 We have blogged a ton about "aliens" these past 15 years.  Yes, there are strange and supernatural events happening in the skies, but they aren't from far away planets and they aren't advanced life forms.  Nope, they are simply the same old demons and fallen angels who have plagued mankind since the snake in the garden.  They just keep adapting their deceptions to best deceive humans.

Today we see a headline that just has to be posted.

Fake Alien invasion – Are They Planning the Ultimate False Flag?

We have recently seen a significant push for reinstating mandatory military service. Both the UK and USA have called for all young people to be drafted. Manufactured fake wars tied in with a hidden depopulation agenda may explain the push for these high numbers.

However, given that there’s no need for so many soldiers these days, as war scenarios are now fought using high-tech weaponry; for example, remotely operated cyber-controlled aircraft, robotics and drones… etc., could there be another angle to this?

Could a planned fake alien invasion be in the cards as the ultimate false flag?

Consider the millions of conscripts required to deal with such a scenario to fight on homeland. Could, for instance, U.S military conscription be part of a concerted operation tied into a covertly planned fake alien invasion?

In retrospect, what about the legacy mainstream media’s many recent publications covering aliens. All on the same page, asking the same questions such as, “Do aliens reside among us?”  or, “Are they secretly working together planning an invasion…?” Then there are the numerous accounts of alien encounters from whistleblowers and ordinary people, receiving a lot of attention basically saying “They are here…”

Is this part of the conditioning designed to get the public used to and then be fooled into a hostile alien invasion threat, not knowing that the whole thing is deep-state manufactured?

Would the public be fooled?

The recent House of Representatives approved National Defense Authorization Act has made an amendment that will register all able-bodied resident males aged 18-26 for selective service into the U.S military in 2025. There are intentions to expand registration to draft women. For more on this go here.

What if these young people forced to enlist soon find themselves fighting a formidable alien foe?

Consider the resulting grave concerns for these young people from their parents and other close relatives giving their support. So emotionally struck, some losing their senses, would the nature of the fake alien foe bring less skepticism, while allowing the deep state to get away with the fakery?

Remember, to most people, a potential alien threat is thought to come from off-worlds, aliens showing up in the sky, not from underground lairs. Would an attack from aliens coming from underground really shake people, as they had not been prepared for this? How would this unexpected invasion be reassessed?

Purpose – endgame goal

What would be the real agenda behind this massive recruitment?  Bear in mind, as already mentioned, large-scale infantry and combat formation is not needed: A large-scale U.S military setup involved in the Ukraine conflict, or for instance, the potential need to fight off enemy attacks in Taiwan has been dismissed by some as not necessary.

One person who thinks the high conscription numbers are unnecessary is Dr. Michael Salla, a renowned researcher, pioneer of ‘Exopolitics’ who has revealed the Secret Space Program. He puts forward that the contrived alien threat could come from cloned aliens made in deep underground military bases. Dr. Salla states that cloning technology over the years has been extremely well-developed.

Further, he says these programmed life forms, cloned entities, derived from crypto-terrestrials, non-human intelligences that have been dwelling underground for thousands of years, could rise up to ground-level in the numbers and overrun major cities, creating the illusion that they have come from outer space… In effect, it will then justify large-scale military mobilization and intervention.

I know that some may find this hard to swallow, but perhaps we should keep an open mind.

As with all false flag psyops you have to ask “who gains?” In the event of a fake alien invasion. The endgame goal (gain) would be to assert centralized control and power. I’ll explain:

With most people having no idea of what’s really going on in this deception, the United States government, the respective administration and the millions involved in the military activity would be revered for overseeing homeland “protection” and “victory” over the secretly cloned-army aliens, but it doesn’t end there.

The deception would continue. The military industrial complex and government would insist on maintaining the millions upon millions of soldiers in case of another alien invasion (which they would secretly manufacture again). After all, these aliens are capable of unexpectedly popping up from underground here, there and everywhere again at any time…

Consider the money needed to keep these solders needed for U.S homeland protection and then there could follow another manufactured fake alien invasion.

In the rhetoric, this would be quite a power grab, bringing in huge profits for those who stand to gain through orchestrating this manipulative scam: The military industrial complex and those corporate crony governmental associates in high places.

Consider this invasion and its same effects in other countries. On that scale, wouldn’t it therefore make the fake alien invasion the ultimate false flag scenario? The ultimate psyop. The ultimate power grab given its unlimited potential as a perpetual existential threat resulting in endless wars. Endless profits for the military industrial complex. Talk about draining financial resources…

In retrospect, perhaps we should be more afraid of governments than aliens.

Did you catch this paragraph??

Further, he says these programmed life forms, cloned entities, derived from crypto-terrestrials, non-human intelligences that have been dwelling underground for thousands of years, could rise up to ground-level in the numbers and overrun major cities, creating the illusion that they have come from outer space… In effect, it will then justify large-scale military mobilization and intervention.

The Bible says that during the Great Tribulation that men will faint with fear on what they see coming.  It also says that something creep and demonic comes out of the abyss...which is a place under the earth.  A place where angels have been chained awaiting judgment.

Whatever is happening, I can guarantee that it will be unlike anything mankind has ever seen.  Jesus confirms this when he says, "If I didn't cut those days short, no flesh would survive."

Even so, come Lord Jesus!

God’s Wrath is Likely on its Way

I have a friend who is a Democrat and a public school teacher.  He and I can debate about all sorts of things related to politics, religion, gender, taxes and LGBTQ issues and still leave the day as friends.  I can’t do that with anyone in my family so am thankful for his friendship.  Of course I would love for the opportunity one day to tell him the Gospel story and have the Lord snatch him away from his current path to destruction, but he thinks he’s heard it all before because he was raised Catholic, “and my aunt was even a nun and the most Godly person I’ve ever known!”  So I keep praying for opportunity and I keep inserting Biblical worldview ideas into our debates.

Just yesterday I won a bet we had on Biden dropping out.  I bet him 2 weeks ago that Biden was done and that DFL was going to force him out and choose someone else.  He said I was 100% wrong and there was no way that could happen, so I’m gloating a bit today as he conceded that I won with yesterday’s news.

But he went on to say that no matter WHO the DFL nominates, they will be the next President.  Why?  Because legally killing babies in the womb is so important to American voters that it will be the #1 issue occupying U.S. voters minds!  So they will NEVER vote for Trump or anyone who hints at curtailing the baby-killing legality.

How sad!  With huge issues like China-Taiwan, Russia, the collapse of the U.S. dollar, inflation, wars and rumors of war, drug addiction, border issues…and the #1 thought on millions of voters minds is “legally killing babies is THE most important issue”.  Maybe we deserve judgment and wrath and maybe it’s already on the way?

*************************

 Is There Any Hope for America?

During the past week, the Republican Party nominated Donald Trump as its candidate for the office of President of the United States. Many believe his reelection will save America from its current path to destruction.

Of course, I would prefer to see him return to the White House versus the current occupant. However, I believe God’s judgment looms in the relatively near future regardless of who wins the upcoming election or which party controls Congress and the Senate.

Though optimism abounds among many, we must reckon with the fact that the globalists and deep state within the U.S. will do everything they can to keep Trump out of power. They fear that as president, he will again interfere with their Luciferian agenda of bringing a New World Order to fruition.

Yes, the Lord is more than able to thwart the plans of those seeking to destroy the U.S. On the other hand, it appears much more likely that He will allow them to prevail for a brief time so He might totally destroy Satan’s earthly realm and inaugurate a reign of righteousness over the nations.

A Likely Scenario

I believe the most likely scenario for the coming months, or perhaps years, is the Rapture followed by a rapid degrading of America’s status, if not its total elimination as a nation. I say this because the start of the Tribulation looms ever so close.

The Bible tells us that great wars will occur during the coming Day of the Lord. The conflicts illuded to in Revelation 6:1-8 will result in many more deaths than occurred during the last century with the two world wars and the deadly rise of Communism, which led to a staggering total that exceeded one hundred million.

The world teeters on the edge of disastrous wars on many fronts, which at any moment could erupt into a devastating world war. I believe the presence of the Holy Spirit within us as New Testament saints currently restrains the globalists’ plans to ignite the most deadly wars of history.

It’s amazing that NATO’s provocation of Russia in Ukraine has not yet resulted in a response involving nuclear weapons. Those in Putin’s administration have repeatedly warned the U.S. and its allies of such a response, but President Biden continues to cross the red lines that the Russian president has set for such a disastrous response. How much longer can this keep happening without sparking a deadly conflict?

The Middle East also rests on the brink of a great war that could involve many nations. It appears that a major conflict between Israel and Hezbollah in Lebanon is unavoidable, which might bring Iran and many other nations into the war.

China’s impending invasion of Taiwan is another flashpoint that could explode into a worldwide conflict involving the U.S.

The rider with a “great sword” is just one of the four riders of the apocalypse whose appearance seem long overdue given all that’s happening at this time.

The Nearness of God’s Judgment

If there is a path to making America great again, it must result in people renouncing abortion, the entire LGBQT+ agenda, and the government’s allowance, if not direct support, of sex trafficking. Any awakening that averts God’s judgment on the U.S. must cause widespread disdain for these things as well as for the lawlessness, deception, and violence that has become so commonplace on our shores.

For three decades, I have believed that Habakkuk’s description of ancient Judah (1:2-4) fits perfectly with modern-day America. How did the Lord respond to the prophet’s complaint? He told him that judgment was already on its way to the Land (1:5-11). Would He respond in the same way today? I think so.

I continually pray for people to come to saving faith in Jesus. I would love to see a great awakening that would take America off its current path to ruin and destruction. However, similar to Habakkuk’s day, God’s wrath is likely on its way to the U.S. as well as to the rest of the world.

Ancient Judah failed to heed the warnings of the likes of Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, and Habakkuk. Today, most people in the U.S. ignore the warnings that resound from many. Sadly, many saints hear “all is well” messages from pastors who deny the Rapture and push the Lord’s return to a far distant time when He comes to inaugurate the eternal state. Far too many put their hope in political solutions that will only lead to further despair.

For the reasons cited above and many more, I’m not optimistic about the future of America. I believe God’s patience will soon end, we will meet Jesus in the air, and the entire earth will feel the full brunt of His wrath. We are far beyond the place where the results of an election will change the downward course.

At times, I feel the pull toward the hope that voters in the upcoming U.S. election will send a resounding message to those now seeking to destroy the nation.

However, the Bible brings me back to the realization that we live in the last days and that the only reliable expectation of the future consists of Jesus’ imminent appearing to take us home to glory.

Maranatha!

Israel Strikes Yemen

 And now another war front has possibly opened up.  How can tiny Israel possibly fight off all these crazy Muslims, hell-bent on killing all the Jews and wiping the name of Israel from the map?

*************

Israeli fighter jets conducted an air strike in Yemen on Saturday in retaliation for the Houthi drone attack on Tel Aviv last Thursday, U.S. and Israeli officials said.

Why it matters: This is the first time that Israel has directly attacked Yemen, a country more than 1,000 miles away.

• The Houthis, an Islamist militant group backed by Iran, have harassed and attacked commercial ships in the Red Sea for months in response to Israel's war in Gaza.
• Houthi officials said the Israeli strike hit oil facilities in the port of Hodeidah, which is controlled by the rebel group. 
• The Saudi television channel al-Hadath reported three people were killed and 15 wounded in the Israeli strike.

Behind the scenes: Israeli Minister of Defense Yoav Gallant spoke to U.S. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin on Friday and told him Israel was likely to respond to the Houthi attack, which killed one Israeli and wounded several others, a U.S. official said.

• Israeli and U.S. military officials spoke several times on Saturday ahead of the strike, the official said.
• An Israeli official confirmed the strike and said it was conducted in coordination with the U.S. and an international coalition formed to counter Houthi attacks.
• Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu convened the security cabinet on Saturday to approve the strike — a highly unusual meeting, with many religiously observant ministers arriving on the Sabbath.

What they're saying: A spokesman for the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said in a statement: "IDF warplanes recently attacked military targets of the Houthi terrorist regime in the Hodeida port area in Yemen, in response to the hundreds of attacks against the State of Israel in recent months."

• The Houthis claimed in a statement that the Israeli strike targeted civilian facilities, oil tanks and the electricity station in Hodeidah. "The aim was pressuring Yemen to stop supporting Gaza, which is a dream that will not come true. This will only increase the determination of the Yemeni people and their armed forces to support Gaza," the Houthis said.
• Gallant said in a statement: "The fire that is currently burning in Yemen, is seen across the Middle East. The first time that the Houthis harmed an Israeli citizen, we struck them. And we will do this in any place where it may be required."

Between the lines: A senior Israeli official said the strike in Yemen was a purely Israeli action. 

• "This was a targeted operation at the port of Hodeida. We carried out the strike after many months of restraint in the face of Houthi attacks that included the firing of dozens of items, including surface-to-surface missiles," the official said.
• "Israel will act everywhere to protect its citizens and its sovereignty."
