Events are speeding up with the world in a state of flux, nations are now not sure of what will come next
28 Feb 2021 War in the Middle East: the Arab Israeli alliance!
There are multiple reports that the Peace brokered by the Trump Admin is to become a formal military alliance of Jews and Arabs. Though it was written that those of Arab 'Sheba and Dedan' would be first to speak for Israel to the invading Northern 'Rosh' Russia coalition including Iran (Persia), if 10 years ago any would have said not only are Arabs at peace with Jews they are in a military alliance, people would have laughed. I did write of it in 2005! Welcome to the Middle East. The Semites with a shared geneology and culture unite... against a common foe.
Report: Israel, Saudi, Bahrain and UAE in talks on defense alliance
The reported defense alliance talks likely come in response to the "growing Iranian threat" in the region, specifically regarding its budding nuclear program along with its expanding influence in the Middle East with countries like Syria and Iraq. The report comes as US President Joe Biden attempts to launch talks with Iran on a return to the 2015 nuclear deal. Jerusalem does not have official diplomatic relations with Riyadh but the UAE and Bahrain signed a historic normalization deal with Israel in September 2020 known as the US-brokered Abraham Accords. Earlier this week, it was reported that officials from Saudi Arabia and Israel recently held telephone calls which centered around Saudi Arabia's concern over Biden's policy on Iran.
Just as the Biden Admin are seeking to engage with Iran, they embarrass the Saudis by releasing a CIA report alledging Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman (MbS) "approved" of the 2018 assaination of Jamal Khashoggi, and banned 76 Saudis. It stopped short of censoring the Crown Prince, but as this 'omission' resulted in some in the Democratic party voicing critisim of Biden's team, one may assume that the Saudi's know they are not favoured, and Iran is. Adam Schiff, the Democrat Chair of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, is demanding no less than the following severe action:"The President should not meet with the Crown Prince, or talk with him, and the Administration should consider sanctions on assets in the Saudi Public Investment Fund he controls that have any link to the crime."
There is some urgency in the talks as in fact Saudi Arabia is under attack from an Iranian proxy.
Saudi Arabia hit by mass ballistic missile and drone attack ? Iran backed rebels blamed A BALLISTIC missile allegedly fired by Yemen's Houthi rebel group was intercepted over Riyadh on Saturday, with explosive laden drones also reported downed near southern Saudi Arabian cities. The US had been providing intelligence and logistical support to the Saudi led coalition but this was ended by President Biden on February 4.
But there is more! Iran is also attacking Israeli interests.
DUBAI: An explosion struck an Israeli-owned cargo ship sail in Mideast amid Tension an unexplained blast renewing concerns about ship security in the region amid escalating tensions between the U.S. and Iran. The site of the blast, the Gulf of Oman, saw a series of explosions in 2019 that the U.S. Navy blamed on Iran against the backdrop of steeply rising threats between former President Donald Trump and Iranian leaders. Tehran denied the accusations, which came after Trump abandoned Tehran?s 2015 nuclear deal with world powers and reimposed harsh sanctions on the country. Dryad Global, a maritime intelligence firm, identified the stricken vessel as the MV Helios Ray, a Bahaman-flagged roll-on, roll-off vehicle cargo ship... In recent weeks, as the administration of Joe Biden looks to re-engage with Iran, Tehran has escalated its breaches of the nuclear accord to create leverage over Washington. The deal saw Tehran agree to limit its enrichment of uranium in exchange for the lifting of crippling sanctions.
Iran was found by Israel to have not kept the terms of the deal. In addition as the Biden Admin offered to renews the deal the Iranian backed forces attacked American positions in Iraq. In no way can hitting a few rebels in Syria be strong message to Iran. America looks very weak and desperate. AS TFI points out the American attack in Syria was for optics back in America a 'smokescreen'!
The strikes against Iranian backed forces in Syria themselves have created smuch controvery in America with Conservative Pundits throwing Democrat prohibitions at air stikes back at the Biden Admin as hypocrisy, forcing Kamala Harris to imply she had not known of them, and leading many to wonder who was really running the country as it is clear to all now the Biden doesn't know here he is let alone what he has signed. Of great interest to us is that the American air strikes seriously annoyed the Russians!
Russia Officials Outraged at Joe Biden Syria Strike As Iran Remains Silent The airstrikes close to the Iraq-Syria border killed at least 22 people, according to the U.K.-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, and destroyed three ammunition trucks. Among those targeted were fighters from the Iran-aligned Iraqi Kataib Hezbollah and Kataib Sayyid al-Shuhada groups. Russia and Iran are both allies of Syrian President Bashar Assad. Vladimir Dzhabarov, first deputy chairman of the upper-house Federation Council's foreign affairs committee, told RBC that the U.S. strike was an effort by the White House to win public acclaim, rather than a justified military operation. Rusia's state-run RIA Novosti news agency spoke to an unnamed source inside the Foreign Ministry who condemned the American strike as "an unacceptable violation of international law."
Russia was not given advance warning and is unhappy that Pro Assad forces were affected. Russia is seeking to protect and 'guard' the Syrian area it occupies.
Thus saith the Lord Yahweh Behold, I am against you, Gog, of Rosh (Russia), Meshech and Tubal: I will turn you back, and put hooks into your jaws, and I will bring you out, all your army, horses and horsemen, all of them clothed with all sorts of armour.. Persia, Ethiopia, and Libya with them; all of them with shield and helmet: Gomer, and all his bands; the house of Togarmah of the north quarters, and all his bands: and many people with thee. Be prepared, prepare for thyself, thou, and all your company that are assembled unto thee, and be a guard unto them. (Ezekiel 38:3-7)
More comment on the Israel Arab alliance:
27 Feb 2021 Russia in the Crimea
In surely one of the least diplomatic and most provoking excerises the Biden Adminstration released a statement that US Will "Never" Accept Russia's Annexation Of Crimea marking the seventh anniversary of Russia?s annexation,"The United States continues to stand with Ukraine and its allies and partners today, as it has from the beginning of this conflict. The United States does not and will never recognize Russia's purported annexation of the peninsula, and we will stand with Ukraine against Russia's aggressive acts." Left out of Biden?s statement was the reason for the Russian annexation. In 2014, the US-orchestrated a coup in Ukraine. The largely ethnic Russian population of Crimea rejected the new nationalist anti-Russian government in Kyiv that even had neo-nazis in its midst. Polls after the annexation show the majority of Crimeans were in favor of joining Russia. The Biden family benefited greatly from the coup. Shortly after the change in government, President Biden's son Hunter landed a high-paying job on the board of Burisma, a Ukrainian natural gas company.
Russia's annexation of Crimea allows it's naval access via Istanbul to the Mediterranean. It is highly unlikely that the Obama era Coup will prevail. We explore the Russ of Kiev and why Russia will prevail. We also examine the role of Ukraine between Russia nd Europe and why Russia will unite with Europe.
26 Feb 2021 US Democrat led house Declares Rebellion against God
"God's Will is No Concern of This Congress" ? Top Democrat Nadler Derides God
During the debate yesterday over the Equality Act, a measure that would create a right to kill babies in abortions and force Americans to fund abortions, Republicans accused Democrats of ignoring Biblical values. And a surprising comment from pro-abortion Democrat Congressman Jerry Nadler confirmed that to be true. On Thursday Rep. Greg Steube (R-FL) spoke on the House Floor, "I'm going to repeat that line again. Whenever a nation's laws no longer reflect the standards of God, that nation is in rebellion against him and will inevitably bear the consequences. And I think we are seeing the consequences of rejecting God in our country today. And this bill speaks directly against what is laid out in scripture?"
That?s when Democrat leader Jerry Nadler jumped in, "Mr. Steube when any religious tradition ascribes as God's will has no concern of this Congress."
O Lord, to us belongeth confusion of face, to our kings, to our princes, and to our fathers, because we have sinned against thee. To the Lord our God belong mercies and forgivenesses, though we have rebelled against him; Neither have we obeyed the voice of the LORD our God, to walk in his laws, which he set before us by his servants the prophets. (Daniel 9:8-10)
He ruleth by his power for ever; his eyes behold the nations: let not the rebellious exalt themselves. Selah. (Psalm 66:7)
24 Feb 2021 Purim, Iran's Weapons of Destruction in the US 'Equality Act'
Netanyahu declared: "On the eve of [the festival of] Purim, I would like to say to those who seek our lives, Iran and its proxies in the Middle East: 2,500 years ago, another Persian villain tried to destroy the Jewish people and just as he failed then, so too will you fail today. We will not allow your extremist and aggressive regime to attain nuclear weapons."
"We did not make the journey of generations through thousands of years back to the Land of Israel, to allow the hallucinatory regime of the ayatollahs to end the story of the resurrection of the Jewish people." Iran?s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said that Iran will continue its 20 percent enrichment of uranium and increase enrichment up to 60 percent, "based on the country?s needs." UnitedWithIsrael
Meanwhile over in the US the regime colluded to power by Iranian election interference is presiding over a House of Congress who is wishing to wipe out Orthodox Jewish practice (and the power of Evangelical Christians).
"It is outrageous that Congress would declare us bigoted for simply maintaining our time-honored traditions," said Rabbi Avrohom Gordimer, chairman of the CJV Rabbinic Circle. The Coalition for Jewish Values (CJV), an American rabbinic group, called on Wednesday for the rejection of the Equality Act as "a direct attack on Jewish religious values and practices." The Equality Act, H.R. 5, is slated to be voted on Thursday in the House of Representatives. In a letter sent Friday to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, the CJV argued that according to the Equality Act, a person is deemed "bigoted" if he or she adheres to traditional Jewish doctrine, if not in so many words. For example, the text refers to "the sex stereotype that marriage should only be between heterosexual couples" as a discriminatory belief. "And it is no mere insult; the law even explicitly rejects religious freedom as a defense, meaning it provides Anti-Semites with a new way to persecute the religious Jewish community," Gordimer said. Indeed, the Equality Act is the first time in history that legislation would deny protections found in the Religious Freedom Restoration Act of 1993. WIN
Remember Haman's argument was that 'their' customs are not 'our' customs.
Haman said unto king Ahasuerus, There is a certain people scattered abroad and dispersed among the people in all the provinces of thy kingdom; and their laws are diverse from all people; neither keep they the king's laws: therefore it is not for the king's profit to suffer them. (Esther 3:8)
22 Feb 2021 Saudi Arabia to Manufacture Armaments
Saudi Arabia will invest more than $20 billion to establish its own domestic military industry in an apparent move to reduce its dependence on the United States which recently announced it was freezing certain arms sales to the Kingdom, Saudi Arabia?s defense budget for 2020 was $48.5 billion, most of it spent purchasing arms and munitions from the United States, but Biden objects to the Saudi-led coalition continuing its intervention in the Yemen civil war against the Iran-backed Houthi rebels. On Sunday, the Saudis announced state-owned Saudi Arabian Military Industries (SAMI) signed a deal with American defense Lockheed Martin to form a joint venture to boost the Kingdom?s military capabilities... On Monday, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates signed a memorandum of understanding to "transfer technology and know-how and to build an integrated base for defense industries in the Gulf," Asharq Al-Awsat reported WIN
As the UAE shares with Israel, the techological sharing loop connects now to the Saudis. We would expect that the Saudis prevail in Yemen, as that is the ancient area of Sheba. They may prevail now there is going to be less American interference in operations, and less abilty for America to interfer due to rapid decline of American wealth.
And as for Ishmael, I have heard thee: Behold, I have blessed him, and will make him fruitful, and will multiply him exceedingly; twelve princes shall he beget, and I will make him a great nation. (Genesis 17:20)
19 Feb 2021 America returns to annoy Russia in Syria: Damascus
Damascus Says Biden Is Setting Up New Bases On Sovereign Syrian Territory... there are fresh reports out this week that the Pentagon is actually constructing a new US base in northeast Hasakah. Significantly, this allegation is also being featured in Syrian state media. "The US army began building a second base in the Al-Malikiyah region in the Syrian northeastern province of Hasakah." ..the Saudi-funded, London-based newspaper Asharq Al-Awsat also wrote that a new base is being established in the US-occupied border region of Syria's northeast: Damascus and its allies Russia and Iran have long been vocal in condemning the blatantly illegal occupation of a UN-member state's sovereign territory. ZeroHedge
Though we believe the great push of Daniel 11 has occured when Britain and Commonwealth out of Egypt as a true King of the South pushed at the Ottomans to allow Israel to emerge, once again we see pushing from the South by the US - which is likly to bring down more Russian 'chariots'.
And at the time of the end shall the king of the south push at him: and the king of the north shall come against him like a whirlwind, with chariots, and with horsemen, and with many ships; and he shall enter into the countries, and shall overflow and pass over. (Daniel 11:40)
Into this mix comes DEBKAfile Special Report & Analysis Reported Israel air strikes keep up pressure on Iranian targets near Damascus Israel is said by Syria to have conducted a series of missile attacks on 'targets near Damascus from the Golan Heights and Galilee,' late Sunday, Feb. 14.? Most were said to have been ?deflected by Syrian air defense systems.? Syrian opposition sources add that 6 non-Syrians were killed in the attack, which targeted Iranian arms and missile depots. Military sources note that PM Binyamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Benny Gantz abruptly left an important cabinet meeting on Sunday afternoon, aborting important decisions on the next two stages of Israel?s exit from the coronavirus crisis. On Sunday, the Israeli Air Force launched a snap exercise to practice its readiness for combat on the northern front. Dubbed 'Rose of Galilee' all parts of the air force are focusing on the core missions of maintaining air superiority and defending the nation?s skies, as well as conducting air strikes and gathering intelligence. For now, Israel is not relenting on the military pressure on Iran to remove itself and its proxies from Syria as a launch-pad against its borders. Mean while Iran and Russia launch joint naval exercise in Indian Ocean. The Russian and Iranian navies have embarked on a joint exercise in the Indian Ocean that will including repelling a mock pirate attack on a merchant vessel.
We have some expectation that at some point Damascus will cease fom being a city, it is quite possible that the US moves into that mess will help bring this about
The burden of Damascus. Behold, Damascus is taken away from being a city, and it shall be a ruinous heap. The cities of Aroer are forsaken: they shall be for flocks, which shall lie down, and none shall make them afraid. The fortress also shall cease from Ephraim, and the kingdom from Damascus, and the remnant of Syria: they shall be as the glory of the children of Israel, saith the LORD of hosts. (Isaiah 17:1-3)
19 Feb 2021 Iran going Nuclear, Yemen, Afghanistan
It was announced that In an Act that NO ONE VOTED FOR, Biden Withdraws Trump's US Sanctions on Iran to the consternation of those who at least thought they were a 'bargaining chip'. Rep. Michael McCaul of Texas, quickly denounced the steps. "It is concerning the Biden Administration is already making concessions..The Trump Administration created leverage for President Biden on Iran.
In a joint announcement Thursday with the foreign ministers of France, Germany and the United Kingdom ? three other parties to the 2015 nuclear deal ? Secretary of State Antony Blinken said that "if Iran comes back into strict compliance with its commitments under the [Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action], the United States will do the same and is prepared to engage in discussions with Iran toward that end.?" .. Reuters reported Friday that the Biden Administration had given Israel advance notice before the announcement, citing an unnamed source... Mark Dubowitz questioned that reporting, writing, "My understanding is that this is not true. US did not inform Israel ahead of major Iran policy announcement." Algemeiner
The accord has been unraveling since Trump pulled the U.S. out of the agreement. The announcement came a day before Biden is to speak to leaders of the Group of Seven industrialized democracies and later in the day address the annual Munich Security Conference. Iran is "playing with fire..The measures that have been taken in Tehran and may be taken in the coming days are anything but helpful." said German Foreign Minister Heiko Maas, who took part in the talks Thursday in Paris with his British and French counterparts. Blinken had joined via videoconference. Iran's threats are "very worrying," British Foreign Secretary Dominic Raab said, stressing the need "to re-engage diplomatically in order to restrain Iran, but also bring it back into compliance."WIN
Further to appease the Iranians, the American Administration removed the Houthi rebels (Ansar Allah) in Yemen from the US list of terrorist organizations on Feb. 16 That went down so well that, Just minutes after Blinken tweeted.. a Houthi military figure posted a statement that Ansar Allah successfully attacked a sensitive military target at the Abha International Airport (southwestern Saudi Arabia) and its headquarters in the Khamis Mushayt region, launching three Qasef-2K and Samad-3 drones, which "hit the targets with great precision." And then pro-Iranian Iraqi Shi?ite militia linked to Hezbollah-Iraq ?Saraya Awlia al-Dam ? claimed responsibility for a rocket attack on the Erbil Airport and the adjacent US military base on Feb. 16. Fragments at the target indicate that 24 Fajr-1 (107 mm) Iranian-made rockets were fired. The US secretary of state denounced the "outrageous attack" in which a civilian contractor was killed, and a US service member and five more contractors were injured. A civilian plane was also hit in the attack on Abha Airport. It is concluded Through Its Yemen Maneuver, the Biden Administration Is Giving a Free Pass to Iran
Even more scathing DEBKAfile Special Analysis Iran-backed Houthis treat Biden?s peace feelers as an opening for extortion The Biden administration's offer to remove the Yemeni Houthis' designation as terrorists quickly boomeranged: the Iran-backed insurgents saw it as a sign of weakness instead of an opening for talks with Tehran and turned up the heat for more concessions.
Over in Afghanistan the new weak leadership America is being tested by a resurgent Taliban. There is no policy direction on the situation with the peace deal which was to withdraw all U.S. forces from Afghanistan by May 1. With a strong America willing to lead tough sanctions that mattered, the Taliban may have stayed in line. Now there is multilateral 'fear' of an American pull out that Trump might have withstood but, Given what is being said today in Washington, and in Brussels by NATO defense ministers meeting there, Biden will likely decide to follow in his predecessors' footsteps. He will extend the May deadline for months, kick the can up the road, and leave in place enough troops to prevent a collapse of the Kabul government but not enough to reverse the inevitable outcome of this war.Buchanan
Now America appears very very weak overextended in a deadly war it cannot leave, mouthing pointless contradictory words and clear desperation for a 'deal', Iran is pushing for all it can get. It does not make sense to us that Iran prevails, as we expect the Saudi Arabs to be 'of Sheba' which is thought to be in Yemen! Also the servants of God have no fears or concerns not answered in prayer. We may see terrible things comming to pass in the darkness of the political night the age of Noah and Lot, but one thing we may have some confidence about is that as long as Israel has many on the mountains who seek God, no weapon formed against them will suceed, as it was written.
No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their righteousness is of me, saith the LORD. (Isaiah 54:17)
18 Feb 2021 The Saudis relegated to US disfavour in favour of Iran
In a move that will not prosper Officials in the Biden administration announced a shift in U.S. Middle East foreign policy on Tuesday towards a more critical stance on Saudi Arabia while opening the door for direct diplomacy with Iran. In a briefing with reporters at the White House, spokeswoman Jen Psaki said that U.S. President Joe Biden would conduct diplomacy directly through Saudi King Salman bin Abdulaziz rather than his powerful son, Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman. WIN
As MBS has ears, one feels that the Saudis may seek to work about the Americans, rather than with them, which may be of use to Israel.
15 Feb 2021 US David Schoen's Sabbath 'You shall not spread a false report'
Throughout the US Senate Impeachment Trial of Trump we here at Bible Focus have been reading the laws given in Exodus. We have noted that Jews have been reading those same laws. Before all the world, CNN's Jake Tapper (Supplanter draws off or out) has drawn attention to this - so let us take note!
"Trump attorney David Schoen has left the Senate to observe the Sabbath. At synagogue tomorrow, he will hear the reading from the Torah of: Mishpatim ? Rules," Tapper tweeted, referring with the weekly Bible reading in synagogues. Mishpatim is in the Book of Exodus."Exodus 21:1-24:18 includes:'You shall not spread a false report. You shall not join hands with a wicked man to be a malicious witness. You shall not fall in with the many to do evil, nor shall you bear witness in a lawsuit, siding with the many, so as to pervert justice,'" Tapper tweeted.. Tapper made the tweets as the Sabbath was starting, in violation of the Torah.World Israel News
On the 14th we were reading Exodus 21. Unfortunately for Jake, David Schoen (Beloved Beautiful) had in fact been showing this very point - Daily Mail headlined "Trump's attorney David Schoen slams 'spliced and manufactured' impeachment video shown by House Democrats to prove ex-president incited Capitol riot and says it was a bid to 'trick the American people'.
Selectively doctoring video including to show as co-incident events which are not, is a false witness. If it was with intent to malign, then it was also malicious. Did David or Jake join 'the many'? Which of the two was willing to convict without a detailed investigation? Later in the day Michael van der Veen goes viral globally for becoming visibly angry at a reporter who he thought implied by her question that a verification check mark (which gives authorative status) and changing a date (which gives false a conjunction) and editing video was not material, whereas in his view, it was inadmissible false witness, which they didn't defend or deny. Who was holding up the passing of a bill aid to the poor and needy to play politics? Who was perverting justice? Thanks to Jake Tapper, this one has gone to the court of Heaven. How do I know? Today we are reading in the Psalms,
God standeth in the congregation of the mighty; he judgeth among the gods (Hebrew 'Mightly Ones'). How long will ye judge unjustly, and accept the persons of the wicked? Selah. Defend the poor and fatherless: do justice to the afflicted and needy. Deliver the poor and needy: rid them out of the hand of the wicked. They know not, neither will they understand; they walk on in darkness: all the foundations of the earth are out of course. (Psalm 82:1-6)
We wait for the coming of Jesus as king, who will be a judge of the hearts.
There shall come forth a rod out of the stem of Jesse, and a Branch shall grow out of his roots: And the spirit of the LORD shall rest upon him, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and might, the spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the LORD; And shall make him of quick understanding in the fear of the LORD: and he shall not judge after the sight of his eyes, neither reprove after the hearing of his ears: But with righteousness shall he judge the poor, and reprove with equity for the meek of the earth: and he shall smite the earth with the rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips shall he slay the wicked. (Isaiah 11:1-4)
15 Feb 2021 In America Trump's Democrat lawyer Van Der Veen calls for judgement on Democrat led House
The UK Daily Mail found a source that alledged that Trump's 3rd defense lawyer called Trump a crook. The Mail understood he donated to Democrats, and more to the point that he had represented Melvin Johnakin an Independent who sued Trump and the Postmaster over Mail in Voting, when Trump tried to prevent it as he alledged it would lead to fraud. He would have no reason to defend Trump unless it was a matter of truth. He must have been convinced the evidence confirmed the riot was planned in advance by radical others and that the matter and means were not consitutional. The God of the Bible knows the truth of all! He could, like others, have refused the job. Some wondered as the Mail, others mocked Trump for employing him. Yet in an interview Michael Van der Veen corrected himself saying he was 'proud of his team', by saying that pride is a sin. So in this context of objective and absolute right and sin, Van der Veen has called for the leaders of the American House of Representatives to be held accountable for falsifying evidence and cutting Trump's speech so his words would be taken out of context. This forced Trump's legal team to play the full context. It is clear that no one will prosecute them; not the media and not any body of law. It can be seen that the Lawyer Michael Van der Veen was righteously angry because falsifying evidence is an offense against due pocess of law - the issue is that it is also an offense against God's law. Expect repercussions. The Current House is open to judgement, not just once for the famous 'awoman' that will lead to 'God the cleaver' among them, but now again for breaking the 10 Commandments.
Thou shalt not steal. Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour. (Exo 20:15-16)
Thou shalt not raise a false report: put not thine hand with the wicked to be an unrighteous witness. (Exo 23:1)
And the judges shall make diligent inquisition: and, behold, if the witness be a false witness, and hath testified falsely against his brother; Then shall ye do unto him, as he had thought to have done unto his brother: so shalt thou put the evil away from among you. (Deu 19:18-19)
The Biden Admin also called for Judgment, "And that each of us has a duty and responsibility as Americans, and especially as leaders, to defend the truth and to defeat the lies." God also decides the judgement on false witnesses and liars.
A false witness shall not be unpunished, and he that speaketh lies shall not escape. (Proverbs 19:5)

14 Feb 2021 Solar Powered Tanks - the end of NATO
We have suspected that NATO is practically dead, due to the rapprochement of both France and Germany to Russia. On the 7th November 2019 Macron was reported to have said, "What we are currently experiencing is the brain death of NATO." In November of 2019 we considered the implications of this in relationship to Ukraine. Now there is leadership directives from NATO's head, its brain, so brain dead as to be liable to send Putin into hysterics.
Is there a better badge to show the intellectual collapse of The West than the idea, from a NATO chief, that we should put solar panels on battlefield tanks? One hundred years from now, there will be a stage in the collapse of civilization called the 'Solar powered battle tank' phase.
Thomas Harding, National News The Nato chief [Jens Stoltenberg] suggested that militaries should advance research into low-emitting vehicles because of the advantages they bring, at an online seminar titled New Ideas for Nato 2030. "Nato should do its part to look into how we can reduce emissions from military operations," he told the Chatham House event. "We know that heavy battle tanks or fighter jets and naval ships consume a lot of fossil fuel and emit greenhouse gases and therefore we have to look into how we can reduce those emissions by alternative fuels, solar panels or other ways of running our missions."
Lest we do not understand how terrible an idea this is, "Willis Eschenbach calculates: 1 gal. diesel = ~ 40 kWh. Solar panel, ~ 1 kWh per day. Solar panel ~ 17 sq. ft. You MIGHT fit four on an M1 tank. Plus 4 Tesla Powerwall batteries, 1/2 a ton. Every 10 days you could move your tank 0.6 miles ? in summer. Jo Nova

13 Feb 2021 The International Criminal Court goes full Anti-Israel
The Feb. 5 decision at the ICC, in The Hague, Netherlands, ruled that it had jurisdiction to investigate alleged war crimes in the Palestinian territories, six years after the office of the court?s chief prosecutor, Fatou Bensouda, opened an investigation....In 2020, the Trump Administration imposed sanctions on ICC officials, including Bensouda, over the Israel case and another investigation into possible war crimes by American forces in Afghanistan. In January, the Biden Administration said it would review those sanctions, and has also announced that the US would rejoin the UN Human Rights Council, from which Trump withdrew in 2018. Algemeiner
There is no co-incidence. The ICC was emboldened by Biden's moves. The reporters hopes for good will to Israel due to the Biden Admin will not be borne out by reality, as clearly once again Zion is a controversy amoung the nations, as they fight no less than the God of Israel.
For it is the day of the LORD'S vengeance, and the year of recompences for the controversy of Zion. (Isa 34:8)
As the US is now rejoining, their stances against Zion will pay back well - as the ICC also has the US in its sights - DEBKAfile breifs
Fatou Bensouda is believed to have timed her decision to launch a war crimes probe against Israel for the handover to her successor in June. A frontrunner for the position is the Irish lawyer Fergal Gaynor, who served in the war crimes prosecution of Khmer Rouge in Cambodia and Radovan Karadzic in Kosovo. Gaynor will have been well groomed to accelerate the cases against the US as well as Israel..
And in that day will I make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all people: all that burden themselves with it shall be cut in pieces, though all the people of the earth be gathered together against it. (Zech 12:3)

11 Feb 2021 Twitter will censor - but not calls for Jewish genocide
Twitter "cannot predict" what, if any, action will be taken against world leaders who call for the genocide of the Jewish people on its platform, a Twitter representative told a special Knesset committee hearing Wednesday. "Let me ask you, please, squarely: Is and are calls for the genocide of Israel in the public interest as a statement of foreign policy?" asked Arsen Ostrovsky, an international human rights lawyer. In response, Twitter's public policy representative Ronan Costello said that the area was "developing." "I think that one thing that we can take from the developments of the last few months ? and I hope you'll appreciate this ? is that no world leaders are exempt from our policies and that we will enforce our policies where we feel there have been violations of them," said Costello. Member of Knesset Michal Cotler-Wunsh said, "That answer happens to be unsatisfactory as a Jew whose genocide is being called for." World Israel News
We no longer have an account with Twitter and will not quote anyone on Twitter due to this stand (and the pedophilia).
Mine heritage (Israel, see context) is unto me as a speckled bird, the birds round about are against her; come ye, assemble all the beasts of the field, come to devour. (Jeremiah 12:9)
10 Feb 2021 US seeking to stir enmity to Israel
There have been multiple reports of the Biden Administration's haste to seek to resume aid to falestinians. Also multiple reports that there has been no phone call to Israel's leaders
Palestinian Authority Prime Minister Dr. Mohammad Shtayyeh said that the Biden administration has assured the Palesrtinians that the US will renew its aid to the Palestinians, reopen the PLO office in Washington D.C., and establish a U.S. consulate in East Jerusalem. The US will also renew its aid to the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA), he said. United with Israel
US State Department spokesman Ned Price on Tuesday evening confirmed Washington's intent to restore humanitarian aid "very quickly".. "The suspension of humanitarian aid to the Palestinian people has not led to political progress," Price said in a statement, referring to the previous administration, "nor has it made it possible to obtain concessions from the Palestinian leadership."
We are of the opionion that as Jews are to dwell on the Mountains in security, this intent will not prosper. Our thoughts are confimed by the barriers to aid being given in place listed by Hugh Fitzgerald of Front Page Mag.
A second reason for the previous administration ending contributions to UNRWA was the continued appearance of antisemitic passages in the schoolbooks UNRWA uses in its classrooms, despite its repeated promises to revise those texts. The Americans simply got tired of hearing the same false assurances from the practiced liars at UNRWA. They didn?t want to continue to fund antisemitism. Does the Biden Administration think they were wrong? The Palestinians continue to support the "Pay-For-Slay" program that provides generous subsidies to the families of dead and imprisoned terrorists. In fact, Washington was legally required to end such aid, as mandated by the Taylor Force Act of 2018, an Act of the U.S. Congress to stop American economic aid to the Palestinian Authority (PA) until the PA ceases paying stipends through the Palestinian Authority Martyr?s Fund to individuals who commit acts of terrorism and to the families of deceased terrorists. The Taylor Force Act is not an executive order that Biden can easily undo. It?s a law. frontpagemag.com
Their conclusion is that the Biden Admim may get around the law to give money (more national debt!) but that it will be all lost due to excessive corruption straight into top PA officals pockets, so nothing will be done in any case. We wonder if US favour in the corrupt places of the PA in a region that has been utterly changed by forces that the new Admin clearly doesn't understand, will lead to the utter failure of the corrupt PA.
After many days thou shalt be visited: in the latter years thou shalt come into the land that is brought back from the sword, and is gathered out of many people, against the mountains of Israel, which have been always waste: but it is brought forth out of the nations, and they shall dwell safely all of them. (Eze 38:8)
9 Feb 2021 Anglo-UAE-India after 70 years returns to trade
We have been watching the rise of India since 2010. In 2010 we noted the important role of the UAE British relationship in the British India trade route. India is now moving towards the Arabs, and has prevailed on the Arabs of OPEC to keep its old cheaper price for bulk oil to India, while raising prices for America, Europe and the rest of the world. Looking at the Biden Administration's policies, Bahrain and the UAE have decided to seek allies in following the Trump pattern. In addition the Arabs are moving further from Pakistan and the PA fostering an allince with India. India and Israel are now thought 'natural' allies, and the detente with Arabs led by Trump allows India now to move towards the Arabs. As we propose, we suspect much of the world will follow the Trup approach.
For those that bless Israel, there is often a blessing. Now India has openly turned to Israel it was blessed by a plot to destablise it being acidentally exposed by Greta Thunberg. As a result of the post the whole plot, including who was behind it, is being exposed as the Indian government investigates its overseas sources. Kamala Harris' niece had posted in supoort, indicating she too was part of it. Many Indians objected. "The nationalist United Hindu Front, burned images of Harris and Thunberg". NationalFile. This will not result in better relations with the Biden Adminstration, for reasons we do not fully understand, America is to become irrelvant for a time as Britain and India rise.
Now Britain and India are once again linked, not just by culture, by moves to a remarkable trade deal, we see the re-emergence of the Merchants of Tarshish just as expected. Some may have doubted this would happen in the era of American post war dominance and in the era of Indian socialism. Some may see events by today's news not in the longer term pattern. We wrote in 2014 of the expected end of the 70 years for both Britain and India.
Howl, ye ships of Tarshish: for your strength is laid waste. And it shall come to pass in that day, that Tyre shall be forgotten seventy years, according to the days of one king: after the end of seventy years shall Tyre sing as an harlot. (Isaiah 23:14-15)
9 Feb 2021 Biden Stumbles Going Up
We recently opined that the finding that Hebrew letters of Biden's name spoke of 'judgement' meshed with our long understanding that Biden was given Broken Glass becasue he had opposed Jews building in God's Holy Land, when God had returned to favour them. We suspect as do other commentators that America is entering a time of judgments, and especailly every move against Israel will result in a direct curse. By contrast it seems that India and the Arabs will now be blessed.
Before even he was president, Biden who had boasted of his fitness, is reduced to limping after an injury to his foot from falling over his dog (the story never really emerged as to how it happended, but dogs are not praised in scripture! 1 Sam 17:43). Now Biden is seen falling up steps, going 'home' as one who fails to go up, or ascend. Life in Christ requires us to ascend. A Jew who returns to Israel ascends.
Then shalt thou walk in thy way safely, and thy foot shall not stumble.(Proverbs 3:23)
But if a man walk in the night, he stumbleth, because there is no light in him. (John 11:10)
8 Feb 2021 Iran: "post-US era has started."
Just as allegations emerge that Iran, with China and other nations, put their cyber fingers on the scales flipping votes against Trump on the night of the US election, Ali Khamenei, Iran's Supreme Leader tweeted simply "The post-U.S. era has started." Many have wondered why the US is not leading in latter day Bible prophecy. We add also that China is not mentioend either. It seems both China and America are now connected, to bring each other into oblivion (we suspect that China is too exposed to the American economic failure they helped bring to power in this election). Iran, where power is not vested in economy but in relgious structure, by contrast in its ancient form of Persia is prominent in latter day Bible prophecy. Isarel is prominent in latter day prophecy also. Israel is the epicentre. We believe that America is mentioned - and it is given terrible "woe"! Iran has declared that woe, a woe indeed that Iran had a hand in bringing to pass.
"Before his inauguration, Biden was snubbed by nearly the whole of Europe, provoking even the pro-Democrat publication Politico to declare that "Europe gives Biden a one-finger salute." National File
Clearly Iran is sensing the power is with their Germanic Aryan ally, the leader of Europe. We are in the era of Joel's prophecy where the command goes forth for war;
Beat your plowshares into swords, and your pruninghooks into spears: let the weak say, I am strong. (Joel 3:10)
We are in the era of Ezekiel 38!
And say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against thee, O Gog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal: And I will turn thee back, and put hooks into thy jaws, and I will bring thee forth, and all thine army, horses and horsemen, all of them clothed with all sorts of armour, even a great company with bucklers and shields, all of them handling swords: Persia, Ethiopia, and Libya with them; all of them with shield and helmet: Gomer, and all his bands; the house of Togarmah of the north quarters, and all his bands: and many people with thee. (Ezekiel 38:3-6)
3 Feb 2021 The EU declares only the pope infallible
In the most recent dispute between the UK and EU Ms von der Leyen's chief spokesman Eric Mamer sparked fresh outrage when he told a press conference: "Only the Pope is infallible, you know?” express.co.uk
The papacy after being hated by the 'beast' of humanism, is to be a queen over Europe.
And the ten horns which thou sawest upon the beast, these shall hate the whore, and shall make her desolate and naked, and shall eat her flesh, and burn her with fire. For God hath put in their hearts to fulfil his will, and to agree, and give their kingdom unto the beast, until the words of God shall be fulfilled. And the woman which thou sawest is that great city, which reigneth over the kings of the earth. (Rev 17:16-18)
How much she hath glorified herself, and lived deliciously, so much torment and sorrow give her: for she saith in her heart, I sit a queen, and am no widow, and shall see no sorrow. (Rev 18:7)
2 Feb 2020 Myanmar (Burma) Coup over election fraud claims
We pray for our brethren the servants of Christ in this uncertain time in Myanmar, as it is possible that many people will rise against the military take-over which may lead to violence. We have entered the time of trouble that our Lord spoke of on the Mount of Olives, with ideals of democracy being cut down in a moment, and there is no solution.
Myanmar's military has taken control of the country with a number of leading politicians being detained... The largest country in mainland Southeast Asia and as of 2017 is home to 54 million people. The military, which supports the opposition party, claimed the election was fraudulent given the NLD’s popularity in November. The NLD won more than 80 percent of the vote, despite facing allegations of genocide against the country's Rohingya Muslims. In the wake of the election, the military-backed opposition began to make accusations of fraud, however, the election commission rejected all allegations of vote fraud. A statement broadcast on military-owned TV on Monday claimed voter lists were "found to have huge discrepancies and the Union Election Commission failed to settle this matter". The statement read: "Although the sovereignty of the nation must derive from the people, there was terrible fraud in the voter list during the democratic general election which runs contrary to ensuring a stable democracy. "Unless this problem is resolved, it will obstruct the path to democracy and it must therefore be resolved according to the law. "Therefore, the state of emergency is declared in accordance with article 417 of the 2008 constitution." Express.co.uk
The desire and temptation to seek a large win by Aung San Suu Kyi's party existed as the military had 25 percent of the seats. Such a large win as 80 percent would remove the military from a seat with power. As there is much interference in elections in all places now from hacking to people being bought, it will be impossible to know the truth of the matter, only our Heavenly Father knows! It is known that Aung San Suu Kyi is supported by former US President Obama and Hillary Clinton who are linked with Biden. In the past the Commander Min Aung Hlaing has come out in supoort of China. China thinks it has bought the Biden Admin, and Hunter Biden's business is reportedly in China. China has come to stand behind Commander Min Aung Hlaing calling for calm, as it has its own agenda and is playing both sides. The Daily Mail reports 'Chaos' in the White House as Biden administration officials argue over whether to call Myanmar military takeover a 'coup' over fears they will 'anger China and be forced to withdraw foreign aid'. So far there have been only words of condemnation and a threat of sanctions, which means nothing. It appears the US wishes to continue aid to allow them to interfere in Myanmar. So we have an absurd situation where leading Democrats are trying to impeach Trump for a 'coup' amounting to the actions of some hoodlums, one openly Antifa and another in face paint and horns, when they can't call an all out military take-over a coup!
The most interesting point for us is the India, China, Myanmar (Burma) Israel connection. We write about it China, Burma & 60 years with Israel and Kingdom: Story of India (Pakistan)
All are nations that to varying degrees had entered the brave new world of Socialism or Communism. All have had to reasses and allow varying free market changes. All are nations formed as trees shooting forth with Israel at the same time, and like Israel have existed now as nations for over 70 years and so fulfill Christ's prophecy.
He spake to them a parable; Behold the fig tree, and all the trees; When they now shoot forth, ye see and know of your own selves that summer is now nigh at hand. So likewise ye, when ye see these things come to pass, know ye that the kingdom of God is nigh at hand. Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass away, till all be fulfilled. (Luke 21:29-32)
Myanmar is a perplexing problem that will be without any solution - for sure there will be protest as sea and waves roaring but the end will be fears and no solutions, because there are now many powerful nations in the world as great trees all seeking their place at the top in the sun and nobody trusts anyone any more. This Coup took out a star and shook the political heavens.
There shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring; Men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken. And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh. (Luke 21:25-28)
