President Barack Obama is meeting with Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in an effort to bring about peace in the Middle East. This means solving the Iranian nuclear weapons problem and moving forward with a two-state solution and an international Jerusalem. The Pope visited Jerusalem because the Vatican hopes to lead a coming one world religion and control Jerusalem Benjamin Netanyahu, Israel's prime minister, and President Obama are going to discuss a two-state solution to end the Arab-Israeli conflict and other options.
The three crucial issues in their meeting will be:
- The creation of a Palestinian state. The US administration has repeatedly urged the creation of an independent Palestinian state, a goal that Benjamin Netanyahu has yet to endorse
- Iran - The Israeli government publicly supports of President Barack Obama’s policy of engaging Iran. However, secretly they fear it will give Tehran more time to pursue its nuclear program,
- Settlements "“ Mr. Netanyahu will repeat Israeli promises to curb the growth of Israeli settlements in the West Bank.
My inside intelligence resources have told me that Netanyahu will use semantics to satisfy the two-state pledge, but serious action is not likely to follow. I personally met with the former Prime Minister of Israel Ehud Olmert, who talked tough about not dividing the land and confronting Iran militarily. But in reality he did neither. After I repeatedly questioned him, Prime Minister Olmert looked me in the face and stated that he was prepared to militarily defend Israel’s right to the land.
Obama is popular in Israel. The Muslim world perceives him to be a Muslim. With the prospects of a nuclear Taliban, Obama has boldly come out and said that the two-state solution would be in the best interests of the U.S.
There is an expectation in the Muslim world, Russia, the EU and among Obama’s supporters in the U.S. that he will make real progress in the Middle East. This pleases the backers of a one world government because it gives the United Nations an important role in the two-state solution. Don’t be surprised if the Vatican attempts to control an international Jerusalem with blue-helmeted U.N. troops taking control of the streets of the City of David. Obama will also meet Mahmoud Abbas, the leader of the Palestinian Authority. He has already met King Abdullah of Jordan and leaders in Saudi Arabia. King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia. In June Obama will give his long awaited speech to the Muslim world from Cairo. The struggle in Afghanistan and Pakistan ("AfPak") is President Obama's most critical national security priority.
General Petraeus has warned us that the Taliban plans a surge to counter the surge of U.S. troops in Afghanistan and the borders of Pakistan. Taliban terrorists and al Qaeda operatives with shoulder rockets and AK-47s patrol the streets of Peshawar, Pakistan while the police and army retreat from fear. Pakistan and its government support the al Qaeda / Taliban expansion which will soon reach Islamabad, the capital of Pakistan and one of the world's eight nuclear powers.
Iran is on the verge of becoming a nuclear power. A nuclear Taliban in control of Pakistan and a nuclear Iran gives militant Islam tremendous power and changes the entire balance of power in the Middle East and the world. President Obama whose sympathies appear to lie with Islam, believes a Palestinian state is something he can make happen in his first year in office. With the help of the EU, the CFR-controlled U.S. State Department, Great Britain and with the help of Jordan's King Abdullah II
Netanyahu is not interested in a Palestinian State unless there is tangible protection from the U.S. and the destruction of Iran’s nuclear program which threatens Israel’s right to exist.
Another prominent Middle East leader who is meeting with President Obama is the aging 80-year old Hosni Mubarak, who has ruled Egypt since President Anwar Sadat's assassination thirty years ago. Egypt needs a boost to its economy and must immediately create over one million jobs. Obama, the IMF and the United Nations can supply that economic aid in exchange for cooperation. Mubarak's son Gamal, is set to take over his father’s position. Gamal has close ties with the Muslim Brotherhood, an organization dedicated to the complete destruction of Israel Iran is a modern version of Nazi Germany. It is dedicated to the total destruction of Israel. In a 114-page study by Abdullah Toukan and Anthony Cordesman of the Center for Strategic and International Studies in Washington. The authors give an analysis on Israel’s ability to conduct a military strike on Iran. The Study concluded," "A military strike by Israel against Iranian nuclear facilities is possible ... [but] would be complex and high-risk and would lack any assurances that the overall mission will have a high success rate." Israel believes that such an attack would be successful. Israel has maintained that it knows the locations of the secret Iranian nuclear production sites buried deep underground.
Israeli intelligence disagrees with U.S. and international intelligence community projections that Iran will not go nuclear before 2013. Israel believes Iran will have nuclear weapons this year and it must strike soon. Israel also believes that it is possible to successfully destroy dozens of secret nuclear production plants. The Israel Air Force has new technology that can scramble communication networks and radar in the nations where the F-15s and F-16s can fly over undetected., However, Iran has been preparing against these attacks and the nuclear plant at Natanz is buried deep underground and barricades by massive concrete walls.
The Iranians use the centrifuges to enrich uranium, which is required in order to produce a nuclear bomb. The Natanz facility will be able to supply enough enriched uranium for 25-30 nuclear weapons per year. Iran is prepared to use this against Israel. The U.S. and the EU in the form of an Electro Magnetic Pulse Weapon.
Israel has U.S.-made smart bombs and 600 of these bombs - nicknamed "bunker busters" bombs can penetrate deep under the earth. One "bunker buster" is called GBU-27, it weighs about 900 kilos and it can penetrate massive layers of concrete under the earth. The other "bunker buster" is called GBU-28. It is a monster bomb which can blast even deeper under the earth.
With the help of Russian and Chinese technology, some of which may have been sold to the Iran from the U.S. Iran has developed a state of the art aerial-defense system. It believes it will stop most of an Israeli attack consisting of a vast array of surface to air missiles, 1,700 anti-aircraft guns and combat aircraft. Among other things, the Iranians have deployed batteries of Hawk, SA-5 and SA-2 surface-to-air missiles, plus they have SA-7, SA-15, Rapier, Crotale and Stinger anti-aircraft missiles.
However, it appears that Russia has already supplied to Iran, the S-300V (SA-12 Giant) anti-aircraft defense system. This Russian system is so powerful that the IAF would have to completely recalculate their mission due to the massive losses by the Israeli Air Force.
However, after talking with General Shimon Erem, who was in the 1967 Day Way, military victories for Israel have always been built on the miraculous. If Israel’s past history is in indication of their success, than no amount new technology will be able to stop them because God has made an everlasting covenant to the physical descendants of Abraham.
If Israel hits the reactor in Bushehr, so much radiation would be released in the air that mass deaths will result. The radioactive contamination would kill hundreds of thousands of Iranians and people in the surrounding nations. If for some reason Israel attacks Iran with ballistic missiles instead of combat aircraft, the Jericho I and II missiles carry a 20-kiliton nuclear weapon and a one 1-megaton nuclear weapon. Essentially, this would start World War III, the Ezekiel 38 scenario and the War of Gog and Magog.
Depending upon the degree of the attack, Iran would strike back with Shahab-3 ballistic missiles and waves of Hezbollah and Hamas suicide bombers. In the recent Lebanon War, where I warned Prime Minister Olmert who read my book "Are You Ready?" about the dangers of giving up land for peace. A warning he ignored. Back then Hezbollah fired 4,000 rockets from South Lebanon. Today Hezbollah has 40,000 rockets and Israel is not prepared to block such an attack.
The White House knows what is at stake. An Israeli strike on Iran would destabilize the entire Middle East. Such an attack would embolden Shi'ite attacks in Iraq. It would energize the Taliban fighters and al Qaeda to take Pakistan. Nations where America and Britain have military interests such as Qatar and Bahrain would be attacked. But, from the Achilles heel of the United States, the EU, Russia and China is oil. The Iranians would attempt to stop the flow of oil to the West from the Persian Gulf region. This would also give Russia the excuse they need to control 60% of the oil coming into Europe through the Caspian Sea region. It is also conceivable that an Ezekiel 38 scenario would occur with Russia, Iran and Middle Eastern allied launching and invasion on the nation of Israel which the U.S. and Great Britain would be helpless to stop in the face of a nuclear Taliban and the high likelihood of Iranian nuclear and WMD sleeper cells inside the U.S., Great Britain and Europe. A Russian suitcase nuke going off in a U.S. city or an Iranian EMP attack is not all that farfetched.
More Bible prophecy has been fulfilled in our lifetime since Israel was reformed as a nation in 1948. The convergence major prophetic factors are seismic in its proportions. The possibility of the War and Magog in Ezekiel 38, where Russia, Iran and an alliance of Islamic nations attack Israel in the latter days. These latter days were only possible when the Jews were regathered into the land in 1948 as predicted by Ezekiel, Jeremiah and other prophets. The rise of a global government, the "Revived Roman Empire" and the "Fourth Beast" predicted by the prophet Daniel are all prophetic signs. In addition, the coming one world religion and the coming one world economic system is being put into place as outlined by the Apostle John in Revelation 13.
Yet, the Bible tells us," Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts"¦The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance..But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up. II Peter 3:3,9-10
In light of all these Bible prophecies being fulfilled Emergent Church leader, Brian McLaren, in an April 2009 Article in Sojourners magazine has attacked Christians who believe that Jesus is coming back and Bible prophecy. McLaren suggested that Christians who believe End Time prophecy are the reason there is no peace in the Middle East. McLaren said that what these Christians are doing is "terrible," "deadly," and "distorted." McLaren compares a belief in Bible prophecy to racism and says, "These doctrinal formulations often use a bogus end-of-the-world scenario to create a kind of death-wish for World War III, which -- unless it is confronted more robustly by the rest of us--could too easily create a self-fulfilling prophecy." Perhaps what McLaren means by "confronting more robustly" would be the following:
It is not an accident that the MIAC Strategic Report on "The Modern Militia Movement" released by the Governor of Missouri and the Missouri State Highway Patrol along with "Fusions Centers" in every major state in the U.S. and the Department of Homeland Security with their "Rightwing Extremism: Current Economic and Political Climate Fueling Resurgence in Radicalization and Recruitment" are creating computer databases that label Christians who believe in End Times Bible Prophecy, who are pro-life, oppose homosexual marriage, concerned about RFID chips, and are critical of the new world order or the United Nations are profiled as militia members, and bomb-making white extremists.. The irony is that huge numbers of African Americans, Latino’s and Asians believe those things.
But, this is part of a well coordinated stealth strategy, where in my opinion men like Brian McLaren fuel the flames of hatred against Christians who believe in Bible prophecy. Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu rebuked members of the Israeli government who were anti-Evangelical Christian" and warned them "not to bite the hands that feed them." With the Hate Crimes Legislation ready to be passed into law while the Christian pastors sit in silence, there will be a literal reign of terror against the Church and the Jews in America.
The U.S. military expects to have 20,000 uniformed troops inside the United States by 2011 trained to help state and local officials respond to a nuclear terrorist attack or other domestic catastrophe, according to Pentagon officials. With the definition of "terrorists" expanded to include Bible believing Christians. All the President would have to do would be to declare a state of Martial Law. At that point, all Constitutional Freedoms are gone. One wonders how much money from militant Islam is flowing into the "think tanks" which have created these new definitions of terrorists and extremists. The President of the United States now has the legal right to declare a state of Martial Law for any crisis he or she deems necessary. At that point Bible believing Christians are arrested and silenced because they have been profiled as "terrorists." There is no longer any mass support for the nation of Israel, making a two-state solution virtually unopposed along with an international Jerusalem and a Second Holocaust. In one fell swoop two huge problems are taken care of for a secular new world order. The problem of Israel and the problem of Bible believing Christians. If you think it can’t happen here and Great Britain, reread Hitler’s rise to power in Mein Kampf . Hitler came to power when the Weimar Republic was in a hyper-inflation and Middle Class German’s were terrified over their economy. Adolph Hitler burned down the Reichstag or German Parliament. He blamed it on the Jews, Communists and anyone who opposed him. The following day, Hitler enacted new terrorist laws which gave him the absolute power to arrest and send to a concentration camp anyone who opposed him. The Emergent Church of Hitler’s time fully supported his rise to power. In fact, it was called the "Emerging Church" and it was Hitler who first coined the term "Positive Christianity.’ Yet, Hitler despised the Jews and the Christian Church and soon he demanded that all Christian churches preach the occult beliefs of the Third Reich.
It is not an accident that the Department of Homeland Security makes no mention of "leftwing extremists." The Weather Underground was and is a violent, anti-government movement which called for the assassination of political leaders, the murder of policemen as "pigs" and a violent revolution to overthrow the U.S. Government. Many of these Weather Underground members were implicated in the murders of policemen and blowing up government buildings. A number of these Weather Underground leaders have had some kind of relationship with President Obama. Yet, they have never disavowed their commitment to violent Communist Revolution. In fact, they openly brag about it, hiding behind fictional accounts in their books. One major Weather Underground leader stated that 25 million people would die in the coming revolution in America. He is on a national book tour and has never retracted that statement. Why did these groups not make the Department of Homeland Security’s "extremist list?"
The most eye-opening thing of all is to read the names of these radical organizations, their literature and the names of the organizations funding them. You will see that one of their cardinal tenets is the hatred of the modern nation of Israel which they call a Zionist oppressor. But, the most disturbing thing of all is to see the close relationship these Communist groups have with militant Islamic groups. In addition, there seems to be a substantial flow of money from militant Islamic organizations into the hands of American and Great Britain radical socialist groups who are openly anti-Israel. In addition, the left-wing think tank which appeared to have helped the Department of Homeland Security formulate their list of extremists seems to be connected with groups that receive money from militant Islamic organizations.
In a nutshell, whether it is the Department of Homeland Security "extremist" lists, the Hate Crime Legislation, the censorship of talk radio and the platforms of so-called Emerging Church leaders who attack Christians who believe in prophecy, there appears to be the flow of money from militant Islamic front groups. The Church in America which believes in Israel and Bible prophecy must be silenced in order for the agenda of militant Islam to progress. In any Ezekiel 38 scenario including supporting Israel’s right to defend itself from Iran, you can be sure that tremendous criticism of Christians and Jews will surface in the United States and Europe. The criticism is not spontaneous it is orchestrated. I have been told by high-level intelligence agents that the game plan is to piggy back the open promotion of Islam on such things as gay rights legislation, homosexual marriage, Hate Crimes Legislation and other so-called moral issues. It is time for the for the Church in America to stop listening to the false prophets and wake up!
