End Time Weapons: IAF Israeli Squadron Hammers - preparing to attack Iran, Ezekiel 38 Approaching
End Time Weapons: IAF Israeli Squadron Hammers - Preparing to Attack Iran - Ezekiel 38 BEAST = will be the leader of 9 leading nations on Earth + PLUS the New Revived Roman Empire which is United States (not the EU, not the WEU, not the Holy Roman Empire, not of that non-sense, is the SEED of them!!!). They are a group o Sets and Subsets in a Mathematical Venn Diagram.
Antichrist will control a total of 10 most powerful nations on Earth (G.A.T.T. with 2 legs of the statue of Nebuchadnezzar - Old World & New World (2 sides of the planet) = not the east & west of European Union, not just 10 nations on EU. Antichrist is the 11th Member, thereby making him the DE FACTO 8th BEAST (Apoc 17:11)
BEAST not the same as New Revived Roman Empire.
BEAST equals 9 NATIONS plus NEW REVIVED ROMAN EMPIRE !!!
New Revived Roman Empire: United States (is NOT EU, is NOT WEU - we are being deceived by a strong delusion) Named in honor of Italian Cartographer Amerigo Vespucci.
The composite Definition of the word 'AMERICA' is 'Powerful Land Ruler', or 'Powerful Ruler of the Land (Earth)
Origin (Etymology) Root Name: MERIGO = AMERIGO = AIMERIGUS = HEIMERICUS = AMERICVS [Latin characters] (AMERICUS) = AIMERIGUS = ENRIGO (LATIN later) = ENRICO (ITALIAN) = ENRIQUE (SPANISH)= HEINRICH (GERMAN) = HENRY (ENGLISH )

Apoc. 13:1 "...and I saw a beast rising up out of the sea (United States out of the ATLANTIC OCEAN, the "sea of Atlas, a greek god; to those who says that sea refers to "sea of people" that also applies to U.S. because U.S. is a melting pot of "sea of peoples"). The U.S. Dollar also has the number of the Antichrist encrypted as well as the symbol of U.S. Dollar $ which came from coins from Tyre, Lebanon (Phoenicia) which symbolize s a serpent around the tree of life. The ASCII symbol of $ = 36 which its sum = 666. Imperial Measurement System is the same as the Roman Empire. English language use the same Roman Latin Alphabet. The letter N is the ICAO symbol of U.S. which equals both 660 (Greek-Roman coding) & 6 (Telephone code). Take the logarithm of 1000 + 100 + 10 in the U.S. Dollar 2nd Encrypted Numerical Series to find 6 and also Negative 6 (Reverse polarity, by Left Most Digit Method). The Credit Score system minimum requirement in U.S. is 720 which equals 6! (6 Factorial = 720). The letters U.S. using Greek Numerals is 600 (Multiple of a Babylonian Numeral). U.S. also use the very same Roman Calendar. U.S. Aircraft carriers also use Roman Empire catapult technology (no other nations does that). Washington, DC is based in the city of Rome. District of Columbia was named in honor of a goddess that goes as far back as Isis, Aphrodite, Athena, etc. and now Columbia. The New World Virgin Goddess Columbia was just a new manifestation of the ancient consort and virgin mother of god. Depicted in Christianity as the Virgin Mary, Columbia was created out of VIRGIN-ia and MARY-land.
U.S. has more soldiers in almost every corner on planet Earth. U.S. is the best ally of Israel which is as close as Judas Iscariot was to Jesus Christ. Judas Iscariot number is 13 which is everywhere in the U.S. Dollar because of the 13 original colonies that came from the last Province of the Roman Empire: Britannia. The U.S. flag also 666 as a barcode of white stripes.

The original audio from Jimmy Hogan was horrible and required a lot of filtering and amplitude adjustments just to get it even remotely intelligible.

Chinese Whistleblower Forced to Sign Letter of Regret
Meng Guangfa, a 53 year old teacher in Guizhou Province, accused school principal Chen Lin of embezzling money from the government subsidized lunch program that feeds 30 million students from poor rural families.
Meng said he was attacked after confronting the principal and suffered from a brain concussion. After he posted a message online about the embezzelment, local education authorities threatened to take his job away if he didn't retract his message. They also forced him to sign a "letter of regret."
WHISTLEBLOWER: BENGHAZI DISASTER ~ 400 MISSILES STOLEN
Benghazi Was About 400 Surface-to-Air-Missiles Stolen by 'Some Very Ugly People,' DiGenova Says
(CNSNews.com) - Former U.S. Attorney Joe DiGenova, who now represents one of the Benghazi whistleblowers, told a Washington radio station Monday that the real scandal in Benghazi is the theft of 400 surface-to-air missiles by some "very ugly people." The Obama administration fears those missiles will be used to shoot down an airplane or blow up one of our embassies, he said.
"We had troops ready to deploy in Croatia to go (to Benghazi) that night of Sept. 11, 2012 to rescue Americans. We have learned that one of the reasons the administration is so deeply concerned -- we have been told there were 400 surface-to-air missiles stolen, and that they are on or about in the hands of many people, and that the biggest fear in the U.S. intelligence community is that one of these missiles will be used to shoot down an airliner."
DiGenvoa said the information came to him as a result of his legal representation of Benghazi whistleblower Mark Thompson.
"This information comes from former intelligence officials who stay in constant contact with people in the special ops and intelligence community. And it is pretty clear that the biggest concern right now are the 400 missiles which have been diverted in Libya and have gotten into the hands of some very ugly people. And they worried specifically, according to theses sources, about an attempt to shoot down an airliner."

Emanuel Minos Prophecy ~ The End of this Age , Toward World War III ?
The End of this Age
Toward World War III ?
"These pictures represent the conditions that exist in the world today. You will note the air of general peace and prosperity that prevails over a greater portion of the earth. There is a reasonable amount of contentment; the people seem undisturbed and generally happy.
But underneath, there is a seething caldron of discord, generated by man's own ignorant thinking. There is hate, intrigue, and discord among nations. Men are beginning to visualize great military establishments, the like of which were never before known on earth.
...If they are able to launch their diabolical plans - and this we fully expect they will do, FOR PEOPLE AND NATIONS ARE SLEEPING JUST WHEN THEY SHOULD BE AWAKE AND THINK.
-within a few years you will see enacted pictures like these." Then ten or twelve war scenes came trooping by (WWI). They were scenes that we never dreamed could actually take place and we gave them but little thought. Emil continued, "We are hoping almost against hope, that these can be avarted. Time will tell, and these conditions are what we are hoping will prevail."
Then scenes of beauty and peace beyond all description came trooping past, and Emil said, "These are scenes which all of you will enacted, but we wish you would, in so far as possible, put the second series of pictures out of your minds, as that will help us more than you think."
- Life and Teaching of the Masters of the Far East volume 2, page 61-62.
"...Jesus opened a corridor through time which showed me increasing natural disasters coming upon this earth. There were more and more hurricanes and flood occuring over different areas of our planet
The earthquakes and volcanoes were increasing. We were becoming more and more selfish and self-righteous. Families were splitting, government were breaking apart because people were thinking only of themselves.
I saw armies marching on the United States from the south and explosion over the entire world that were of a magnitude beyond my capacity to imagine. I realized if they continued, human life as we know it could not continue to exist.
Suddenly this corridor was closed off and a second corridor started to open through time. At the beginning they appeared very similair but the further the second one unfolded, the more different it became.
The planet grow more peaceful. Man and nature both were better. Man was not as critical of himself or others. He was not as destructive of nature and he was beginning to understand what love is... The Lord sent a mental message to me: "It is left to man which direction he shall choose.
I came to this planet to show you through the life I led how to love. Without OUR FATHER you can do nothing, neither could I. I showed you this. You have 45 years."

The Valdres 1968 prophecy from Norway:
1. Before the return of Jesus Christ and break out of World War III, there will be a long time of detente, peace and disarment. Norway will decrease her military capacity and will be unprepared for the war.
WWIII will begin on such way none has expected and from an unexpected direction.
2. Christians will lose their salt and in Scandinavia, they will fall away from true and living Christianity as never seen before.
No longer will you hear any message about: sin and mercy, law and gospel, that you must return to God and do betterment.
A new kind of teaching will slip in - "fortune and success." Churches will begin to be empty.
Instead of penetrating revivalmeetings there will be entertainment, arts and culture activities.
3. Morals will dissolve without comparison in Scandinavia.
People will be living as married without being married.
There will be great unfaithfullness inside marriages, they brake a part, even christian marriages.
Perverse sins will be normal. Some Christians will begin to defend it and it will be accepted. (Homosexuality?)
Television will be big. Before Jesus returns, there will be an unbeliveable numbers of TV - stations and they can be recieved in many different ways (Satellite? Digital? Fiberoptic? Internet?).
They will be full with violence and games and the violence you see on the TV- Set will be seen on the street. Sexual intercourse and other intime scenes will be shown openly.
4. People from poor countries are moving to Europe, Scandinavia and Norway. But people begins to dislike them and they became more and more hard against the refugees and they treat them as they treated the Jews before WWII.
Then the cup of sin runs over and a local war begins and it becomes more and more international. It will end as an Atomic War. Air, Water and Earth will be polluted.
People from Europe, America, Australia, Japan and other Industrialized countries must leave their home countries because they have been destroyed by the atoms. They are trying to seek refuge in the undeveloped countries that have escaped the most of the destruction. But they aren't welcome.
- Seen by an 90 year old woman in the Lutheran Church of Valdres, Norway.
The speaker of the meeting was Emanuel Minos and it was written down on paper the same night by one of the hosts. When Emanuel Minos read the whole prophecy, he thought for himself: "I cannot tell this in my meetings"
Anyhow it was lost until the mid 90's when Minos was going through all his papers, he found it and it had turn pale.
The Hopi prophecies (They are very old!) :
According to the prophecies, "A Gourd of ashes" would be invented which, if dropped from the sky, would boil the oceans and burn the land, causing nothing to grow for many years.
The prophecy says that men will travel to the moon and the stars and this will cause much disruption and the time of the great purification is near...The Great Spirit says in the prophecy that man will not go any further when he builds a city in the sky.
...we would see great floods in many places, more powerful winds than we have seen before, the Earth shaking, and the great volcanoes erupting. We would be seeing earth, water, fire and air all being a part of the cleansing.
The other way the cleasing could come about would be by a people whose color is red. They would come over this land in one day and qonquer it. If that happened, the Hopi were warned that nobody should go outside of their houses because there would be something in the air that would kill them...
Incan Prophecies
Fatimas Three Secrets from the Vatican Fortunatly, The Vatican still holds to the Original Jewish Teaching of Cause and Effect, The Pentacostal Movements and American "Fortune and Success" Churches on the other hand, believes the Future is Set. (In other words every prophecy of the bible will happen, just as it written.)
Nostradamus own version of the end of Vatican:
O vast Rome, your ruin is approaching
Not that of your walls, but of your lifeblood and substance.
Wickedness will work such a horrible attack through writings
that all will be persecuted.
C10 Q65
A common folk tradition in Rome claim that before the end of this Age:
The body of St. Peter will dragged around the city in disgrace,
while the Vatican is ransacked and the Church vill be a ruin.
In 1565 Nostradamus said this about his prophecies:
"....The one who tells people that life need have no cares and is nothing but "jolly" is worse than the prophet. When you become doctors you will encounter it. Fear is the door. Through it comes all sickness. It creates war and all other activities. Fear makes plauges and illusions. Only fear. It is always so. My prophecies do not spread fear. I am the writer of future history.
"the One who is reasonable can learn from my prophecies how to find the right path to take as if he would have found footprints in the sand from some who has gone before.
Study the history of the ancient cultures. The ancient people have left behind witnesses of inner silence, radiance, benediction and beauty and the nations of the future will only pass on traces of plauges and death.
Every new generation develops weapons of destruction more horrible than before. This development you cannot stop because they have become slaves of their own fear."
"People can only become more reasonable if they can lose their fear of each other and of themselves."
Nostradamus 1999 prophecy
L'an mil neuf cens nonante neuf sept mois
Du ciel viendra un grand Roy deffraieur
Resusciter le grand Roy d'Angolmois.
Avant apres Mars regner par bon heur.
Two versions of X.72 translated by Peter Lemesurier from alt.prophecies.nostradamus
When 1999 is seven months o'er
Shall Heaven's great Vicar, anxious to appease,
Stir up the Mongol-Lombard king once more
And war reign happily where it once did cease.
When 1999 is seven months o'er
Shall Heaven's great Prince, so willing to defray,
Revive the king from Angoumois once more
And former war perchance resume its sway.
Edgar Cayce about the anti-Christ:
Question: In what form does the anti-Christ come, spoken of in Relevation?
Answer: In the spirit that is opposed to the spirit of truth. The fruits of the spirit of the Christ are life, joy, obedience, longsuffering, brotherly love, kindness. Against such there is no law.
The spirit of hate, the anti-Christ, is contention, strife, faultfinding, lovers of self, lovers of praise. Those are the anti-Christ, and take possession of groups, masses, and show themselves even in the lives of men. (281-16).
An Alien about the force of darkness that envelop the planet earth:
"The dark force vibrates at a level that is compatible with your brainwave patterns."
"The easiast way to defeat this force is to remove fear from your societies. This will, in effect, starve it out. It will then go elsewhere, looking for easier prey. You see, your human race is one of the very few that lives with this most unusual thing called 'emotion', which is why the force came here in the first place.
"As I see it, the commercial bondage will, in a few years become the greatest bondage of all. If it goes on at the rate it is now progressing, it will dominate, man, soul and body, and it cannot do otherwise than consume itself and those that are interested in it."
- Life and Teaching of the Masters of the Far East volume 1, page 48.
"Man is made or unmade by himself. In the armory of thought he forges the weapon by with he destroys himself. He also fashions the tools with which he builds for himself heavenly mansions of joy, strenght and peace. By the right choice and true application of thought, man ascends to the Divine Perfection. By the abuse and wrong application of thought, he descends below the level of the beast. Between these two extremes are all of the grades of character, and man is their maker and master."
- Life and Teaching of the Masters of the Far East volume 2, page 89.
"...Diversity has about reached its limitet, and mankind is recognizing that all come forth from the one Source. Recognizing this, men are now coming closer and closer together. Man is beginning to realize that every other man is his brother instead of his enemy.
"When man does fully realize this, he will see that just as all come from the one Source, all must return to that Source, or become as brothers in reality. Then he will be in heaven and will recognize that heaven means the inner peace and harmony created by man right here on earth. He will then see that he makes his heaven or hell just as he chooses. This heaven has been conceived rightly, but misplaced geographically. He will know that God dwells within him,..."

The Henoch Prophecies from the Billy Meier Contacts
Our Love and Joy Forgotten – By Jason Liosatos
‘Our system has become so brutal, harsh, competitive and xenophobic, that we are becoming dismembered from love’.
We have become so disconnected and pulled away from our feelings of love and joy that we are getting used to living without it, or are living in a compromised state as far as love is concerned. Most of us, if we are a human being, struggle with this inner rift of wanting to give, receive, and experience the love we really are, and we can become cold and closed to the love in ourselves and from others, and it can almost be like a check mate in chess, a sort of stale mate where we cannot give or receive it, not just with others but with ourselves.
It is fascinating how we can feel a real fear if we think of telling someone our feelings for them, maybe from a fear of rejection, from old wounds and scars from our youth, when we once opened our hearts wide and got crushed and badly hurt in doing so. In the section ‘contacting the great comforter love’, I explained the feeling of love that is available for everyone hidden just beneath the harsh structures of ourselves, which anyone can access again, because it’s there awaiting its rediscovery.
We must not blame ourselves for our estrangement from our love connection of giving and receiving, we can blame the dreadful system we are part of that robs us of our sensitivity, love, caring, and softness. We are protecting ourselves from hurt and pain, and we know all too well that in this system of punishment and reward we may well get more punished than rewards if we are too soft, gentle, caring, loving, giving and over sensitive, so we lock up our access to love and overcompensate just in case we are brutalized again by the system or by someone.
So we learn to love a bit, just enough to get by, and let our love just peep out through a little crack to our broken hearts and let others love shine in just a bit through that crack to our hearts, and we learn to live with our wounds. The good news is that once we recognize that rift has taken place then it gives us the chance to retrace our steps back to, and into our moment to moment connection with ourselves and love. Once we see where we were misled on the map, we can re-member and re-tie back to that dislocation.
Feeling love in us again is like plugging back into life again, sure we still get problems, life is full of challenges and things to overcome to get what we need to survive, but without love it’s harder, because without love we are merciless and ruthless with ourselves and that spills over onto others. Accessing love begins by the recognition that we are lacking a proper connection to it, and then we can uncover it again, and like polishing tarnished silver we will slowly see the shine in us coming back, which will translate to others and the world around us. Our love will start to smile through the dullness that was our protective shield from the world, and ironically our brightness and love that shines and heals is also a strong protection, because though it gives, and loves, and cares it also repels unwanted influences that could be deleterious to our lives.
So it is a complete fallacy that love, gentleness, and caring are weaknesses and something a bit soft and soppy of the weak willed. On the contrary love is a mighty strength, and the opposite to popular belief that one who loves openly is weak, though of course we must protect ourselves also as I have explained, but we are not to overcompensate, but to be flexible meeting each situation with appropriately presented love, which is the wise way. – Jason Liosatos www.jasonliosatos.com
ALERT! Rothschild Dynasty Merging French & UK Banks Before Fallout of Financial Crisis !
http://worldtruth.tv/rothschild-banki...Britain and France talked about a "union" in the 1950s, even discussing the possibility of the Queen becoming the French head of state, it was reported back in 2007.On September 10 1956, Guy Mollet, the then French prime minister, came to London to discuss the possibility of a merger between the two countries with his British counterpart, Sir Anthony Eden, according to declassified papers from the National Archives, uncovered by the BBC. A British cabinet paper from the period reads: "When the French prime minister, Monsieur Mollet, was recently in London, he raised with the prime minister the possibility of a union between the United Kingdom and France." At the time of the proposal, France was in economic difficulties and faced the escalating Suez crisis. Britain had been a staunch French ally during the two world wars.

US Soldier speaks out on hidden truth of 2012 We are in the end times! America is Doomed
RECORD NUMBER OF AMERICANS RENOUNCING CITIZENSHIP TO AVOID TAXES
The number of U.S. taxpayers renouncing citizenship or permanent-resident status surged to a record high in the second quarter, as new laws aimed at cracking down on overseas assets increase the cost of complying and the risk of a taxpayer misstep.
A total of 1,130 names appeared on the latest list of renunciations from the Internal Revenue Service, according to Andrew Mitchel, a tax lawyer in Centerbrook, Conn., who tracks the data. That is far above the previous high of 679, set in the first quarter, and more than were reported in all of 2012.
Taxpayers aren't required to explain the move, but experts said the recent rise is likely due to tougher laws and enforcement.
"The IRS crackdown on U.S. taxpayers living abroad seems to be having an effect," said Mr. Mitchel.
The IRS declined comment.
Lags in reporting renunciations might mean that many who appeared on the current list made the move months earlier. Taxpayers who renounced can be subject to an exit tax, and people who renounced last year may have avoided higher taxes on capital gains and income that went into effect in 2013.
The U.S. is rare in that all income earned by citizens and permanent residents, even those living abroad, can be subject to U.S. tax, according to Bryan Skarlatos, a New York lawyer. The U.S. also confers citizenship on people who are born on American soil.
The U.S. launched the tax crackdown after the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, and ratcheted up its efforts after 2009, amid evidence that UBS AG UBSN.VX +0.53% and other foreign institutions helped U.S. taxpayers hide assets.
Some taxpayers have applied for IRS limited-amnesty programs, in which they pay stiff penalties for past noncompliance but avoid prosecution.
Tax lawyers say the crackdown has ensnared smaller violators who weren't intentionally evading U.S. taxes.
In addition, a law enacted in 2010, the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act, or Fatca, requires foreign financial institutions to certify they aren't hiding U.S. taxpayer assets, which lawyers say is leading some to reject U.S. customers.
Taxpayer penalties for failing to report assets can be severe, including up to 50% of an account balance for each year.
american "u.s. citizenship" u.s. "united states" law foreign foreigner americans renounce "renounce citizenship" trends overseas tax taxes
The web of rules is "overly burdensome," said Jeffrey Neiman, a former federal prosecutor who led the 2009 UBS case, which resulted in the bank's agreeing to a $780 million settlement. He now is a lawyer in private practice in Fort Lauderdale, Fla. "You basically find yourself in this continuous nightmare."
The cost of complying with various rules and regulations can be steep even for people with small tax bills.
Carol Tapanila, who moved to Canada more than 40 years ago and is now retired, renounced her citizenship in November and appeared on the current list. She says her U.S. taxes amounted to about $250 last year and she didn't take the step to avoid paying them.
Legal and accounting fees and other costs of making sure she was in compliance in recent years have added up to nearly $40,000, says Ms. Tapanila. "It is nothing but stress."
Expatriation can also be costly, requiring that taxpayers prove they have properly paid five years' taxes, among other things.
THE ROAD TO WW3: USA & RUSSIA 'MAY COLLIDE'
Fracking & Solar Outbursts ~ Coast to Coast AM - August 13 2013
In the latter half, Robert M. Schoch, Ph.D discussed how coronal mass ejections (CMEs) from the Sun unleashed discharges upon Earth which triggered massive earth and climate changes, and decimated civilizations which predated Egypt. It's a misconception that the lull in current solar activity protects us from the possibility of major flares or large CMEs, he commented. The sun has shown some relatively unstable patterns, and the Carrington Event of 1859 (which damaged telegraph wires) happened during a fairly quiet cycle, he noted. Schoch speculated that solar outbursts are what brought the last Ice Age to an end around 9700 BC. He reported on his recent visit to Easter Island, where he learned that the natives of the island were said to retreat to underground caves during periods of harsh conditions which may have been related to solar outbursts. He also discussed his research at the mysterious Gobekli Tepe site in Turkey, as well as a yet unexplored underground chamber found in front of the Sphinx's paw in Egypt. He expressed concern that this chamber, which might house the legendary Hall of Records, could be flooded due to changes in the climate and the water table. Among Schoch's upcoming events is the Ancient Alien Cruise in January (also featuring David Hatcher Childress and Hugh Newman) that will explore Mayan ruins in the Yucatan.
