Propaganda, Upside-Down

In the wake of a gruesome terrorist attack at a Jerusalem synagogue (seven were murdered), various Israeli media groups and politicans continue to show weakness.

 

I used to like The Times of Israel. A new, English-language paper launched in 2012, the paper was at one time flush with insightful writers, such as existed at one time for the Jerusalem Post. With the passing of such brilliant writers and editors as David Bar-Ilan, Israeli media have become even more left-wing, and, in my view, a threat to the state.

Much like in America, where the Deep State despises Donald Trump so much that policies harmful to America are considered fair game, Israeli sources hate Benjamin Netanyahu with a passion. I believe the source of their hatred is his Zionist foundations, instilled by his father.

Journalists in Israel like to paint a dark picture regarding what the international community will think or potentially do to the Jewish state, if it does not buckle-under to Palestinian demands. In a bizarre way, I do believe this will become a self-fulfilling prophecy and down the line, fulfillment of a biblical prophecy.

In an article by Jacob Magid in the Times of Israel, we see first this headline:

Nadler joins list of Jewish, pro-Israel Democrats to raise alarm over new government

Before we go farther, you realize of course this refers to the Rep. from New York, Jerry Nadler, at once clownish and malevolent. Nadler’s efforts to take down Trump and weaken American foreign policy are sinister. Take note of this:

“The US Congress’s longest-serving Jewish member warned Wednesday that the proposals by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s government to overhaul Israel’s judiciary could ‘irrevocably strain’ the Jewish state’s ties with the US, adding his name to a growing list of pro-Israel Democrats voicing their discomfort with the new hardline coalition in Jerusalem.

“Criticism of Netanyahu’s government on Capitol Hill has been growing since the coalition took power late last month, indicating that opposition to its policies extends beyond the progressive wing of the Democratic party, and risking the bipartisan support in Washington that Israel views as critical for its security and wellbeing.

 

“Nadler, from New York, highlighted his Jewish background and his pro-Israel positions before warning that the proposals announced by Justice Minister Yariv Levin are reminiscent of the threats to America’s democracy that he has sought to combat in recent years as chairman of the House Judiciary Committee.”

Magid was referencing an op-ed Nadler penned for Haaretz.

Notice a few things. First, Nadler identifies as pro-Israel. He’s anything but. He’s a left-wing hack and has done much harm both to his own country and Israel. Second, the implied threat that the relationship with Washington can be harmed because of Netanyahu. True “friends” do not make such threats. Third, Nadler links Netanyahu with the policies of Trump, who sought to pull the mask off the Swamp. Netanyahu has attempted similar things in Israel.

In the same issue of TOI, blogger Amichai Cohen echoes similar dire warnings:

Palestinians are playing the long game on world stage – Israel could lose

“The coalition’s aim to apply sovereignty in the territories and soften the Supreme Court may harm Israel’s global standing

“The Palestinian activity in international organizations is coordinated and aggregate. For example, the General Assembly’s recognition of the State of Palestine in 2012 provided the basis for the determination that the International Criminal Court has the authority to investigate Israeli actions related to the conflict. An ICJ decision that the Israeli occupation is illegal would serve as the basis for additional proceedings against Israel.

“There are significant t differences between the Russia-Ukraine conflict and that between Israel and the Palestinians. But the most recent Palestinian action is meant precisely to blur them. An ICJ declaration that the Israeli occupation has become ‘permanent’ would mean that Israel could be seen as having effectively annexed Judea and Samaria. If that is the conclusion, international law will require European countries to take action against Israel. Such measures – as can be learned from the Russian case – can be imposed even without the backing of international bodies such as the Security Council. Obviously, Israel has scant ability to ward off the effects of such decisions.”

The same kinds of threats as in the Nadler piece. Israel will be harmed in the international community. International law will judge Israeli sovereignty as illegal. Action will be taken(!).

Now, prophetically, notice the line “international law will require European countries to take action against Israel.” Here is where the rubber meets the road, biblically. It sets the stage for the great end-times prophecies in which Israel will be attacked by the international community. That’s exactly what the text tells us in numerous places.

But all who devour you will be devoured; all your enemies will go into exile. (Jeremiah 30:16)

On that day, when all the nations of the earth are gathered against her, I will make Jerusalem an immovable rock for all the nations. All who try to move it will injure themselves. (Zechariah 12:3,4)

I will contend with those who contend with you, and your children I will save. I will make your oppressors eat their own flesh; they will be drunk on their own blood, as with wine. (Isaiah 49:26).

These passages are discussing the outlines of what we are seeing now. But now, as Israel inches closer and closer to the cliff’s edge, where she will be abandoned by everyone but her Great God, enemies within the state are rising.

Netanyahu has a seemingly impossible job. I know many readers of this column pray for Bibi continually. I believe it helps.

Keep it up!

History :: By Daymond Duck

On Jan. 17, 2023, it was reported that one of the speakers (a historian) at the World Economic Forum (WEF) meeting in Davos this week said globalization (world government) is here to stay, and the notion of de-globalization is a mirage.

Another speaker (the CEO of a German tech company) said the world is merely entering into the next phase of globalization.

It is my understanding that the globalists are advancing globalism in phases or stages with a timeline that calls for the fundamental transformation of the world into a world government by 2030 or sooner.

As far as globalization being here to stay is concerned, according to the Bible, God will allow the globalists to have their godless world government for seven years, and He will destroy it at the Second Coming of Jesus.

The head of their world government (the Antichrist) and his godless assistant (the False Prophet) will be seized and cast alive into the Lake of Fire (Rev. 19:20).

Know that the Bible is His Story (History; God’s Story) written in advance.

God’s story reveals that globalization would come and how it would wind up.

Globalization is temporary, it is not here to stay, and de-globalization is not a mirage.

To the contrary, globalization is a sign that the Rapture and Second Coming are close.

The Antichrist will rise over a world government after the Rapture, and de-globalization will occur seven years later at the Second Coming of Jesus.

Globalization is a tool of Satan.

He will be cast into the Lake of Fire at some unknown time after Jesus, the King of kings and Lord of lords, reigns for 1,000 years (Rev. 20:10).

Here are more recent events that indicate the Rapture and temporary world government are getting close.

One, concerning world government: this week, Elon Musk, who has criticized the World Economic Forum’s ESG agenda in the past (the WEF’s Environmental, Social, and Governance agenda supporting racial equity, abortion, the WOKE culture, etc.) stirred the pot a little more.

  • On Jan. 17, 2023, Musk said the “S” in ESG stands for “Satanic.”
  • On Jan. 18, 2023, Musk said the WEF “is increasingly becoming an unelected world government that the people never asked for and don’t want.”
  • On Jan. 18, 2023, Musk asked Twitter users if they think the WEF should control the world, and about 86% said “No.”

Biblically speaking, the ESG agenda is Satanic, and I will add so is the WEF’s godless World government and population reduction goals (another thing that Musk has criticized).

(Note: Rumors are circulating that former Pres. Trump may change his mind and soon return to Twitter.)

Two, concerning the Two-State Solution (the division of Israel): on Jan. 16, 2023, Israel’s new Public Diplomacy Minister (Galit Distel Atbaryan) said she will launch a new international campaign to explain Israel’s position and debunk Palestinian claims to the Promised Land.

Atbaryan said:

  • She views the Bible as Israel’s deed to the Promised Land, and especially to the region of Judea and Samaria (Amen! Gen. 17:7-8, 18-21.).
  • Israel has not occupied any territory; there is no occupation (Amen!).

(My opinion: Atbaryan’s international campaign could be God’s final notice to world leaders to keep their hands off Israel because He will have the final say (Joel 3:2).

Three, concerning the economy: on Jan. 18, 2023, it was reported that BlackRock (the world’s largest asset manager) has released its 2023 Global Outlook, and it says central banks are deliberately causing recessions to try to bring inflation under control and investors should expect a downturn unlike any other.

This bears repeating: The World’s largest asset manager is predicting that the effort to bring inflation under control is going to cause a recession UNLIKE ANY OTHER (emphasis mine).

I believe the Bible teaches that there will be hyperinflation and a global economic collapse early in the Tribulation Period unlike any other (Rev. 6:5-6).

Four, concerning something that, in my opinion, is a reprobate mind: it has been reported that Minnesota Rep. Sandra Feist said not all students that menstruate are females, and she supports legislation to require charter schools and district schools to place free menstrual products in boys’ bathrooms for students in grades 4-12.

Five, concerning the coming cashless society and the tracking of all buying and selling: many prophecy teachers believe Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDC’s) are a major step in that direction.

Cash will be replaced by a number in a computer, which is a digital record of a person’s income and what they buy and sell.

On Jan. 16, 2023, an article in the Wall Street Journal said:

  • China, India, Nigeria, and the Bahamas are already using a digital currency.
  • Sweden and Japan are getting ready to use a digital currency.
  • 114 nations are exploring the use of digital currency.

The Antichrist and False Prophet will implement the Mark of the Beast and start tracking all buying and selling at the middle of the Tribulation Period, so CBDC’s could be a sign that history is approaching the end of the age.

(Note: Under Pres. Obama, there was talk of the U.S., Mexico, and Canada using a common currency called the Amero. Today they would probably use a digital currency that may or may not be called the Amero. Some readers will remember that the globalists proposed a flag; 1/3 U.S., 1/3 Mexican, and 1/3 Canadian.)

Six, concerning the Ten Kings: I believe the Bible teaches that the world will be divided into ten regions at the end of the age, that there will be a leader over each region, that the Bible calls these ten leaders the Ten Kings, and that they are a prelude to the rise of the Antichrist.

Some of my other beliefs and past statements are:

>The UN’s 3-stage plan has long been: 1) to create trading blocks or regions of nations, 2) transform them into political blocks of nations with a leader over each one, and 3) eventually merge them into a world government.

>The process of creating regions is called regionalization (Google it).

>The ten toes on the statue in Nebuchadnezzar’s dream are toes of iron plus clay (the EU plus others; a world government), not toes of iron (not just a European government).

>The EU was selected to be the first region to rise, and its structure, laws and morals are the pattern for the other nine regions to follow (to make it easier to merge the ten politicized regions into a one-world government).

>One of the other nine regions will be the North American Union (NAU; the continent of North America) that Pres. George W. Bush talked about and is now called the U.S., Mexico, Canada (USMCA) region.

>The other eight regions include Russia and some of her neighbors; China and some of her neighbors; Latin America; the Arab nations; Australia and others; Japan and perhaps others; and two more.

>The transformation of the world from sovereign nations to a world government officially went into effect on Jan. 1, 2016, when the “Transforming our World: the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development” goals went into effect. UN Sec. Gen. Ban Ki-moon hailed it as the “start of a new era” and said there is now a “new universal agenda.”

>World leaders decided they would take 14 years (2016 to 2030) to transform every nation on earth and hopefully the masses won’t rise up and oppose them, that we are now a little more than halfway through the transformation period, and we can expect the transformation to pick up pace and severity.

On Jan. 10, 2023, U.S. Pres. Biden, Mexico’s Pres. Obrador, and Canada’s Prime Minister Trudeau met for the Tenth North American Leader’s Summit (NALS).

On Jan. 20, 2023, The New American posted an article that Bill Hahn wrote for the John Birch Society, and it is loaded with information on the meeting.

>Hahn said in the days of Pres. George W. Bush, Professor Robert Pastor “led the task force for the Council on Foreign Relations on how to build what he called the North American Community or the North American Idea. He said the work was leading toward “CONTINENTAL INTEGRATION” (emphasis added).

>Hahn said in 2002 that former Mexican Pres. Vicente Fox said, “Eventually, our long-range objective is to establish with the United States, but also with Canada, our other regional partner, an ensemble of connections and institutions SIMILAR TO THOSE CREATED BY THE EUROPEAN UNION” (the pattern for the other nine regions; emphasis added).

>Concerning Biden’s summit with Obrador and Trudeau: Hahn said Goldy Hyder, CEO of the Business Council of Canada, said, “It’s time for leaders in all three countries to think more in terms of North America as a SINGLE, SELF-CONTAINED UNIT than as separate entities” (emphasis added)

>During Biden’s summit with Obrador and Trudeau, Hahn reported that Mexican Pres. Obrador said, “We address as a priority the economic and commercial INTEGRATION OF THE ENTIRE AMERICAN CONTINENT” (merging all nations in North America; emphasis added).

>During Biden’s summit, Hahn reported that Canadian Prime Min. Trudeau said, “Let’s think like people did back when they signed the original NAFTA… They … knew that an INTEGRATED CONTINENTAL ECONOMY would bring any and all opportunities that much closer, including those they couldn’t even imagine yet” (emphasis added).

>Hahn said, “The New American perfectly summed up the summit in an online article, writing that the “agreement … overrides the U.S. Constitution and advances the long-standing globalist goal of ERASING THE NATIONAL SOVEREIGNTY of [the] three [North American] nations” (erasing the borders between the three nations; emphasis added).

>Hahn said, “If the three counties do merge into REGIONAL GOVERNMENT, then we are but one small step away from these regional governments being merged under a WORLD GOVERNMENT, as envisioned by the likes of Klaus Schwab, Henry Kissinger, Karl Marx, and the rest of those supporting globalism. The U.S., as the great experiment of freedom, would cease to exist, and the “progress” of American society would have come full circle, back to being serfs and slaves to tyrannical government” (emphasis added).

Seven, concerning the world being divided into ten regions of nations patterned after the EU that will be ruled by Ten Kings: on Jan. 23, 2023, it was reported that this week Brazil and Argentina will announce the creation of a common currency, and they intend to invite Uruguay and Paraguay to use the same currency.

The four nations are already in a trading block of nations called Mercosur.

When the time is right, they hope to be transformed into a REGIONAL GOVERNMENT LIKE THE EU (patterned after the EU; emphasis added).

The author of The New American article, Steve Bonta, said, “Mercosur may well be the next portion of the planet to go the way of Europe, RENOUNCING NATIONAL SOVEREIGNTY in favor of SOCIALIST REGIONAL GOVERNMENT (emphasis added).

It was also reported that this week the 33-nation Latin America and Caribbean States are discussing greater REGIONAL INTEGRATION (emphasis added).

Here is a link to the article:

Eight, concerning world government: last week, I reported that two documents will be presented to the WHO for a vote in late May “that critics say will significantly strip nations of their sovereignty.”

  • The proposed International Pandemic Treaty (drafted in Dec. 2022; to be voted on at WHO Assembly meeting in late May 2023; to be reviewed and finalized at WHO meeting in May 2024).
  • Recommendations from the International Health Regulations (IHR) that come from secretive discussions on Jan. 9-16, 2023.

On Jan. 20, 2023, LifeSiteNews carried an article by Frank Wright that said, “The World Health Organization is seeking powers to silence anyone who questions its narrative in [the] future. Its appalling track record in this regard is no impediment to its belief in its own mission to extinguish human rights for the greater good.”

(My opinion: Pope Francis refers to world government as the “greater good” and the “common good.” Empowering government or government agencies to override human rights – the freedom of religion, speech, the right to bear arms, etc. – will not be good for people. The late May 2023 WHO meeting could enslave the world.)

(More: On Jan. 20, 2023, Jonathan Brentner wrote, “The ‘Pandemic Treaty,’ if approved by member nations of the World Health Organization (WHO), would give the head of the WHO sovereign powers over ALL MEMBER NATIONS to declare health emergencies with restrictions and vaccinations that can be enforced with MILITARY MIGHT.”)

(Note: The Antichrist will come forth conquering, and to conquer; Rev. 6:1-2. He will use military might against three of the Ten Kings; Dan. 7:20.)

Nine, concerning world government: on Jan. 19, 2023, it was reported that Klaus Schwab has headed up the World Economic Forum (WEF) for 52 years, he is now 82 years old, and some WEF insiders are asking who they should get to succeed him.

Ten, concerning the coming world religion, on Jan. 20, 2023, it was reported that one of the speakers at this week’s WEF meeting said he was told not to use the words religion, faith, and God.

In the globalist mind, religion, faith and God are a threat to their agenda (this includes Jehovah, Jesus, the Bible, Christianity, etc.), and it will lead to the persecution of believers during the Tribulation Period.

Eleven, as Christians approach the Rapture, History (God’s Story) is looking forward to the rise and fall of globalization.

Following the Second Coming, History (God’s Story) will look back on the rise and fall of globalization.

Finally, are you Rapture Ready?

If you want to be rapture ready and go to heaven, you must be born again (John 3:3). God loves you, and if you have not done so, sincerely admit that you are a sinner; believe that Jesus is the virgin-born, sinless Son of God who died for the sins of the world, was buried, and raised from the dead; ask Him to forgive your sins, cleanse you, come into your heart and be your Saviour; then tell someone that you have done this.
