Iraqi Police Revolt Against US

Iraqi Police Revolt Against US

Battling US Troops

Iranian Connections Trigger Revolt

U.S. forces battled Iraqi police and gunmen Friday, killing six policemen, after an American raid captured a police lieutenant accused of leading an Iranian-backed militia cell, the military said.

Seven gunmen also died in the fight, a rare open street battle between American troops and policemen. Washington has demanded the government purge its police force of militants, and U.S. and Iraqi authorities have arrested officers in the past for militia links. But the Bush administration said in an assessment Thursday that progress on that front was "unsatisfactory."

The lieutenant was captured before dawn in eastern Baghdad, but the soldiers came under "heavy and accurate fire" from a nearby Iraqi police checkpoint, as well as intense fire from rooftops and a church, the military said in a statement.

As the Americans fired back, U.S. warplanes struck in front of the police position, without hitting it directly, "to prevent further escalation" of the battle, it said. There were no casualties among the U.S. troops, but seven gunmen and six of the policemen firing on the Americans were killed, the statement said.

The captured lieutenant was a "high-ranking" leader of a cell suspected of helping coordinate Iranian support for Shiite extremists in Iraq as well as carrying out roadside bombings against mortar attacks on U.S. and Iraqi forces, the military said. The lieutenant is believed to be linked to the Quds Force, a branch of Iran's elite Revolutionary Guards, it said.

A-O Analysis:

This incident underscores the intelligence reports that the A-O Weekly Newsletter has been mentioning indicating that the Iranian government is plotting to stage a nationwide Iraqi uprising against US forces in conjunction with pre-emptive Iranian ballistic missile strikes against US air and naval forces. Such action by Iran would occur in conjunction with Hezbollah and Syria invading Israel while Al Qaeda conducts widespread terror attacks in Europe and the continental USA.

As A-O understands the intelligence reports, Iranian plans call first for an overthrow of the Lebanese government beginning sometime after July 15th via Al Qaeda special attacks on the Lebanese government. Al Qaeda terror attacks in Europe and perhaps America would also precede Iranian military action against US forces.

The incident today suggests an American effort to pre-empt and or disrupt Iran's plans to trigger a general uprising inside Iraq. The fact that this US action comes within three days of the July 16th date for UN Security Council deliberations on Lebanon and Resolution 1701 suggests that the intelligence sources which A-O monitors is thought by US intelligence sources to be correct and are working to disrupt Iran's plans before they can begin.

While US forces have been involved in conducting crackdowns within Baghdad to prevent an uprising, this incident suggests that the US forces have hit a 'nerve' close to the date for the start of operations for a general uprising instigated by Iran. Whether or not an uprising develops remains to be seen. The incident today may have at least temporarily thwarted and set back Iranian plans to launch an uprising in conjunction with the planned turmoil for Lebanon slated to begin next Monday.

Israel vs. Hezbollah, Round 2

UPI Newswire Analysis For A Summer War, 2007

In an editorial analysis of the current Mideast situation, UPI's Arnaud de Borchgrave presents a comprehensive review of Iran's intentions for world dominance under the banner of Islam. Near the end of the article he notes the war signals suggesting that last year's Hezbollah-Israel conflict may resume yet this summer.

Arnaud de Borchgrave also notes:

There is little doubt Israel and Hezbollah are suiting up to resume last summer's 34-day war in which the Israel Defense Force came off second-best due to poor political and military leadership. Hezbollah is also shorthand for Syria and Iran.

He then goes on to briefly describe indications for a summer war in 2007 including a military clash between the US and Iran. The significance of de Borchgrave's article though, is to note that a mainstream media commentator is now mentioning the war possibilities. Until now, the mainstream media pundits have shied away from talk of a summer war. To read de Borchgrave's analysis, LINK here. Note the article is on 2 pages.

Protests Erupt in Pakistan

Hundreds of Islamic fundamentalists in Pakistan took to the streets on Friday at a rally to protest the Pakistani government's handling of the "Red Mosque" siege and assault by the Pakistani Army which left 75 radical Muslims and 10 soldiers dead. The radicals killed in the mosque had been campaigning for a return to Islamic (Sharia) Law in Pakistan's capital city.

During Friday prayers, Islamic fundamentalist clerics railed in sermons against the government's actions which may have well turned to the dead radicals into martyrs. Such status as martyrdom may well inspire an overthrow of the Pakistani government. Look for Al Qaeda to soon weigh in on the incident with a new call for the overthrow of the Pakistani government. As a result of the incident, the Pakistani military remains on "high alert" for more problems. For more details on the protests, LINK here.

Pakistan Cracks Down on Militants

In the wake of the week-long siege of militants holed up in a mosque in the capital city of Pakistan that resulted in a blood assault leaving more than 50 militants dead, Pakistan's government has begun a general crackdown against Taliban-oriented militants. Such a move could very well lead to a downfall of the Pakistani government. More details on the crackdown, LINK here.

Iran Asks Japan To Pay for Oil In Yen Not Dollars

Iran asked Japanese refiners to switch to the yen to pay for all crude oil purchases, after Iran's central bank said it is reducing holdings of the U.S. dollar.

Iran wants yen-based transactions ``for any/all of your forthcoming Iranian crude oil liftings,'' according to a letter sent to Japanese refiners that was signed by Ali A. Arshi, general manager of crude oil marketing and exports in Tehran at the National Iranian Oil Co. The request is for all shipments ``effective immediately,'' according to the letter, dated July 10 and obtained by Bloomberg News. This may be another indication that Iran is anticipating a coming military conflict with the United States. More details from Bloomberg News - LINK here.

Oil to $80 Barrel?

Due To Supply Shortages

Oil prices reached the $77 mark briefly on Thursday in London amid reports that oil supplies are running short of demand this summer. New York oil prices were rising in sympathy but supply disruptions in Britain are not impacting as hard on New York traders where oil prices settled on Friday at just under the $74 mark. Some Oil traders in Britain are expecting oil prices to reach the $80 mark in the near future but New York traders believe that severe resistance will halt trading this year at the $77.50 level unless something dramatic developes in the Middle East.

British prices are rising due in part to maintenance work on oil facilities in Britain's North Sea oil fields. Another issue affecting prices was a report predicting that demand for oil would exceed production capacity for the next five years. Tensions in the Middle East are also underlying the support for higher oil prices. More details here

Iraqi Police Battling US Troops

Iraqi Police Battling US Troops
July 13-14 U.S. troops battled Iraqi police with link to IRAN in a rare firefight between
American soldiers and Iraqis. This clash underscored the deep infiltration of militants into
Iraq security. Shiite militias have considerable power within police ranks.

US troops arrest an Iraqi police lieutenant suspected of collaboration with an Iran-backed
militia in Baghdad. In the battle which followed an ambush, 6 Iraqi policemen and 7 terrorists
were killed. The US military described the officer as a Sadrite Shiite. They believe he was
funded by Iran's Revolutionary Guards to coordinate logistical support from Iran for cells that
attack US forces with armor-piercing bombs and rockets. US personnel are now
required to wear body armor and helmets in the Green Zone in Baghdad. debka
U.S. troops kill 6 Iraqi police:

This is all to occur ANY DAY. The threat appears valid but only GOD knows, and nothing can

July 14 Supposedly there has been MUCH activity in regard to military communications,
first much communication as if WAR was imminent, then disruptions with US Satellites and

It is being reported around the internet that war between USA and Russia is in a RED ALERT

Bohemian Grove Begins - MOTHER OF THE HARLOTS WORSHIP on July 12th

NWO Satanic Summit Gets Underway...

Bohemian Grove Starts Tonight

MOTHER OF THE HARLOTS WORSHIP BEGINS TONIGHT

Yes, folks, its that time of year again for the annual Satanic- MOTHER OF THE HARLOTS New World Order summertime Summit conference and encampment at the Bohemian Grove in a 2,700 acre redwood forest camp located just outside of Monte Rio, California, about an hour's drive north of San Francisco in one of California's famous redwood forests. The annual encampment draws a who's who of America and International leaders from both business and governmental positions.

The participants in past years has included the Bush family with its own "lodge" as well as other past presidents, such as Ronald Reagan, Richard Nixon, Gerald Ford, Jimmy Carter, Bill Clinton, Newt Gingrich, Henry Kissinger, former Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan, numerous Senators, Governors, Congressmen, and elite business leaders of some of the world's top companies. International dignitaries have included former German Chancellors and British politicians.

Yes, the Bohemian Grove's annual summer fete begins today or this evening with the opening ceremonies which features the annual opening prayer addressed to the Babylonian goddess "Inanna." Inanna was the ancient Sumerian dialect of the Babylonian goddess. Her more famous name is the younger dialect name known as Ishtar, who held many titles in Babylon among them - "MOTHER OF THE HARLOTS."

Ishtar worship dates back to at least around the 2,400 B.C. era and perhaps even older. It was the original and most popular of all the ancient pagan religions of Babel, in part because Ishtar was, in reality, a fallen angel who was part of the pre-Flood rebellion and chose to come down and interact with humans in a sexual manner insitituting a false religion, diverting worship from the Creator-God of the Universe.

The Bohemian Grove opening ceremonies begin with an invocation to Inanna/Ishtar -- the "MOTHER OF THE HARLOTS" (as in Revelation 17:5) before progressing to a ceremonial "mock-human-sacrifice" known as the "Cremation of Care." You can see video excerpts of this ceremony that were surreptitiously recorded and smuggled out of the encampment ceremonies back in the year 2000 by radio talk show host, Alex Jones. LINK here. It is not known as to what other types of occult ceremonies or practices are conducted in the remaining two weeks of the encampment.

It is not clear as to what, if any, kind of policy decisions are made be the ruling elite during the encampment. Some who've been workers at that camp claim that it is merely a two-week drunken party (and or hetero and homosexual orgies) and a time of just merriment, but others claim that there are very quiet meetings among small groups of members with conversations held outside of the earshot of camp workers. Often times these meetings are held within individual group cabins as the camp itself is separated into various, scattered lodging locations within the 2,700 acre preserve.

Hezbollah Primed and Ready for War - Intel Analysis

Hezbollah Primed and Ready for War - Intel Analysis

Debka Says

Hezbollah Primed & Ready Again For War
Hezbollah Has 50% More Rockets Than 1 Yr Ago

Debka.com reports that Hezbollah is in better military shape today than it was a year ago. Last year, estimates put the Hezbollah rocket stockpile at 12,000 and this year the estimate ranges to 18,000 rockets. This time though, Hezbollah has a fleet of all-terrain vehicles and motorbikes with which to move around the smaller rockets in rough terrain making it more difficult for Israeli warplanes and artillery to spot and bomb such moving targets.

The latest intelligence assessment by Debka indicates that Hezbollah's newer rockets have much longer ranges and bigger explosive capabilities with the ability to reach most of Israel from launching points in Northern Lebanon. Such larger rockets are being kept in caches on the Syrian side of the Lebanese border and therefore out of the prying eyes of UN inspectors and off limits to Israeli warplane bombing runs in the event last year's war resumes and Syria remains neutral. Debka believes the larger rockets will remain in Syria until just before they are moved into Lebanon for firing.

Meanwhile the shorter rockets are stationed near the southern Lebanese city of Tyre with its command center in the small town of Maarub. These shorter range rockets are poised for strikes on northern Israeli towns and cities of Haifa, Kiryat Shemona, Tiberias, Safed, Acre and Nehanya. Their presence is well hidden and the Hezbollah forces in charge of the rockets are keeping an extremely 'low profile.' As a result, the Lebanese government and the cowardly Israeli Prime Minister Olmert conveniently choose to ignore the situation and instead claim that things are now much better and deny the rocket threat's existence. In fact, Olmert's inner circle is in public denial that Hezbollah has fully re-entrenched itself into new and better defensive positions in southern Lebanon.

It appears that Prime Minister Olmert is doing a personal rendition of the three famous monkeys - "see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil" and hiding their heads in the sand in the hopes that a bad situation will just go away.

Debka also reports that Hezbollah has tripled its inventory of anti-ship cruise missiles - the C-802 Silkworm Cruise Missiles. One such missile heavily damaged an Israeli warship in last summer's conflict. Now Hezbollah has three times the inventory of such missiles to somewhere between 25 to 30 with dozens more stored on the Syrian side of the Lebanese border. Each missile is capable of knocking out any sized naval warship that might be operating within 20 to 30 miles off the coast of Lebanon.

Another key difference between Hezbollah's capabilities this year and last involves air defense capabilities. Last year, Hezbollah had precious little air defense capabilities, relying primarily on small arms fire. This year, Hezbollah has sophisticated, shoulder-fired anti-aircraft missiles including the Strela-7 and also the mobile system known as the Rapier 2s.

As for ground forces: Last year, Hezbollah boasted an elite unit of 1,600 well-trained commandos of which 750 were killed during the conflict. They have been replaced by an additional force of 1,200 well-trained replacements giving Hezbollah more than 2,000 commandoes which is the backbone of Hezbollah's defensive strength although its overall force size is thought to number as much as 10,000 tp 20,000.

In addition to all of this, Hezbollah has deployed a separate, special forces unit to Gaza to assist Hamas in any future military operations against Israel. All told, Hezbollah is ready to renew its war with Israel. For the full Dekba intelligence report on Hezbollah and its war readiness factors, LINK here.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We are told that less the 50% of Israelis now have gas masked, and that for the most part bomb shelters across the country have not been maintained to a level that they would be a safe place for families to go. Most of the new homes in our cities have done away with bomb shelters and built safe rooms instead, a safe room is a room with a metal door that seals and a window with a heavy metal plate that can be closed in front of it. For the most part these safe rooms have been turned into an extra bedroom or storage room and have no previsions for survival in them. In short we are not ready for an all out war with Syria or anyone else.

Our IDF Reserves proved to be under trained and under equipped and poorly supervised in last summer’s war with the Terrorist group Hezbollah causing far too much causality added to that our leadership has proven to be unable to handle the responsibility of a war and should be replaced but somehow have managed to stay in power.

It needs to be understood that the Israeli military strength is not in its standing army but in its Reserves. When I was active in the IDF in the 80’s all the Reserves trained 30 days out of every year. And all males under the age of 46 did their duty without exception. Bankers and Sanitation workers slept in tents together while training, an often times the bankers took orders from the sanitation workers. That kind of readiness does not exist any longer in Israel. But this last war has once again brought that kind of thinking to the forefront and now after years of not training our Reserves they are being called back up. It is being reported that by September all the Reserves will be retrained and reequipped with new bulletproof vests and light weight helmets, it is also being said that the long M-16 will be replaced by the shorter version by September.

Most Israelis believe that the war with Syria, if it takes place will happen by the end of August or the first of September. After much prayer and looking into this possibility it has occurred to me that it is insane to think that a war can be planned to happen in such a manner. If such knowledge was available surely one or the other would pre-empt in order to get the upper hand. But with both armies massed at the northern borders of Israel a pre-emptive strike would be hard to pull off.

Bashar Assad of Syria knows that if he strikes Israel it will bring the full strength of the IAF and IDF to Damascus (Isa. 17:1). It simply would be suicide for him to make such a move even with the assistance of the Iranian backed Hezbollah at his side. But both Assad and the Hezbollah are being forced by their task master Ahmadinejad of Iran to attack Israel in order to get the international pressure off of them while they complete their nuclear weapons program. It is also obvious to me (for what that is worth) that Russia is encouraging such a war as well, not only by supplying their latest high tech weapons to Syria, Iran and indirectly to Hezbollah. It has also occurred to me and many others that Russia has greater ambitions and has never given up there guest for world dominance. In short once again, the bear has never been de-clawed. And the US should be aware of Putin and his desire to see Israel destroyed, knowing that the US will and must be pre-occupied with terrorisms at a level never before experienced in order to stop them from coming to Israel’s side. We should not rule out the fact that Russian Subs are always just off the US coast both on the Atlantic and Pacific armed with enough nukes to totally destroy the US.

All of this is like watching a great opera and as it develops the pace increases and suddenly we hear the loud music signaling the end is near. It makes little difference what you’re watching the ecology or the global political unrest or a student of Biblical Prophecy, that music is getting very loud and the grand finally is about to take place.

The main attention for all of the horrible things that are about to happen to this planet is not about New York, Moscow or Paris it is and always has been about Jerusalem. The anti-Christ will set up his seat in Jerusalem, but before that will take place this world will get a lot more chaotic for the motto of the Illuminati is to bring order out of chaos and as crazy and insane as it looks now we haven’t seen anything yet.

If you’re a Believer in Yeshua HaMashiach (Jesus the Messiah) it makes no difference where you are when it all comes down, the important thing is to have the faith in God to bring you through and to listen to that small still voice and be obedient to the leading of the Rauch Hakodesh. For it will be the greatest opportunity any of us have ever had to be a true witness to the One and True God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.

Between now and the time we all know and feel in our spirits is coming we must draw very close to God through the Blood of Yeshua, for the world will know us by our love one for the other. For those deceived by man made religions and doctrines they still have the opportunity to set their easy Believism aside and ask Yeshua to be the true Lord of their lives.

For those of us who have been called to bring God’s chosen ones (The Jews) back to the land promised them as an ever lasting covenant we must be about that ministry for God is moving by His Spirit and opening doors.

We read in Isa 11:11-12

Isa 11:10 And in that day there shall be a root of Jesse, which shall stand for an ensign of the people; to it shall the Gentiles seek: and his rest shall be glorious. Isa 11:11 And it shall come to pass in that day, that the Lord shall set his hand again the second time to recover the remnant of his people, which shall be left, from Assyria, and from Egypt, and from Pathros, and from Cush, and from Elam, and from Shinar, and from Hamath, and from the islands of the sea.

An ensign is a flag flown on a ship or boat. And God said He would put His hand again the second time to recover His people from the Islands. I wasn’t fully aware of this verse six years ago when God gave me the vision to rescue Jews who will be fleeing out of Europe, I didn’t know how easy it would be for the terrorist to stop all flights into and out of Israel and the only possible way to rescue those who will soon be running for their lives would be by boat. But today we can easily see God’s hand was on this vision and ministry from the very beginning.

When we look at what is happening in England and France and how the Moslems are taking over and anti-Semitism is as high today as it was before the Second World War. Jews are waking up and moving to Israel, and many others are buying apartments all over Israel to make sure they have a place to run when that time comes. What most of them don’t know is the only way they will have to get here is by boat. It has been given to us to prepare to help those who we can; there is not only a great need for a larger boat, but much more groundwork throughout Turkey, Cyprus, Crete and elsewhere. The need to get the word to the right people throughout Europe are also underway and so much more needs to be done. All the above takes large sums of finances and we are asking everyone reading this to pray, just pray and ask God what He would have you do. A couple links you might want to read concerning this Ministry are http://www.thegoldenreport.com/asp/jerrysnewsmanager/anmviewer.asp?a=1089&z=2

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem, for our son Joel and all the IDF soldiers. Pray for this Ministry and your part in it. Shalom, jerry golden

War Signals Flashing in Mideast

War Signals Flashing in Mideast
An A-O Intelligence Analysis

Introduction

With each passing day new war signals are emanating from the Middle East indicating a growing likelihood that some sort of armed conflict will develop this summer or fall in the Middle East. While God is in sovereign control it may be that He is about to allow the beginning of prophetic fulfillments with the introduction of a major war in the Mideast.

This is not to say that a major war will emerge. We may simply see a small-scale conflict like last year's summer war between Israel and Hezbollah, but the indications that are flashing suggest that this year, any conflict between Israel and Hezbollah will likely escalate to a much wider conflict, possibly even including the United States and Iran or perhaps even developing into a World War or perhaps even, the possibility that we are on the verge of The Magog War of Ezekiel chapters 38 and 39.

I know such a statement about a Magog war occuring now will be met by a great deal of skepticism by some prophecy watchers who are convinced that the Magog invasion will occur somewhere during the Tribulation period, but as one prophecy author, Douglas Berner has written a compelling book - "The Silence is Broken: God Hooks Ezekiel's Gog & Magog" which shows how the prophecies may be fulfilled before the Tribulation Period and perhaps even before a Pre-Trib Rapture of the Church.

There are certainly some developing indicators now at work suggesting the possibility that the Magog Prophecy nations may be in play for fuflillment of the Ezekiel prophecies. You'll read of these aspects later in this article. The Alpha-Omega Report is not - repeat - NOT claiming that the Magog War prophetic fulfillment is just around the corner. In fact, this article is not even predicting a major war will emerge. Instead, this article is merely pointing out the indications that some sort of conflict may emerge in the coming days or weeks of summer and or fall.

The following article is actually taken from the weekly A-O Weekly Newsletter. This type of "intelligence" information has been a regular feature of the weekly newsletter and with new changes coming to A-O in the next few days, more publications involving special intellligence analysis will be available via various email publications. So if you want to stay ahead of the news and have a deeper understanding of what's going on, you'll want to subscribe to A-O email publications.

War Signals Are Flashing

Intelligence Assessment for War

War signals seem to be flashing faster in the past few days. The following is a rundown of the various flashing signals suggesting an armed conflict in the Middle East is about to develop. There are 18 signals.

#1. Iranian Revolutionary Guard (IRG) have been spotted by the British on at least three occasions crossing the southern Iran/Iraq border nearest Basra and deploying special forces or commando troops. On the Iranian side are more deployments of Iranian Revolutionary Guards Special Forces units in Iran's province of Khuzestan whichi is home to Iran's major oil fields. Iranian war planners believe that these oil fields would be prime targets in the event of a U.S.-led invasion. The IRG specialist troops have the task of attacking communications, command, control, and intelligence facilities, and causing general chaos in the rear lines of US invasion forces in the event of war.

#2. Syria has reportedly ordered its civilians out of Lebanon by July 15th citing fears of a civil war in Lebanon.

#3. Hamas has taken over the Gaza strip.

#4 Al Qaeda stepping up attacks on Western Targets - Lebanon & UK

#5. Syria has now finished deploying forces on the Golan Heights and is now stockpiled with ordinance for full scale war for 4 to 6 weeks supply.

#6. Syria has opened up the area to Syrian "terrorist" revolutionary guerilla's seeking to re-take the Golan Heights from Israel by terrorism & guerilla warfare.

#7. Turkey has 50,000+ troops on the border with Syria/Iraq + 90,000 more on the Iraq-Kurdistan border region.

#8. Syria has just been supplied with the latest Russian aircraft and anti-air missile system + the latest anti-tank missiles. Plus a huge stockpile of Iranian Shihab-3 missiles and C-802 Silkworm missiles now deployed along the Mediterranean coastline including into Lebanon under Hezbollah control

#9. Hezbollah is now fully re-entrenched back into its old border positions along the Lebanese-Israeli border, stocked with more arms, weapons and rockets than ever before.

#10. Syrian officials are preparing altnernate means of communicating with each other in the event that Israeli bombings wipe out Syrian's normal means of communication between governmental agencies.

#11. Iran just implemented gasoline rationing and is sticking to that program despite massive civil unrest and rioting - especially in the capital city of Tehran.

#12. Iran now has its own "spy satellites" transmitting regional data back to Iran to monitor US and Israeli military moves.

#13. The US is dispatching a 3rd Aircraft Carrier to the Gulf with reports that a 4th carrier will soon follow.

#14. Increased US Air Force activity in the United States on what is deemed to be more than mere routine drills.

#15. The Iraqi government teetering on the brink of collapse and a newly increase wave of insurgent activity suggesting a wide uprising may be in the works.

#16. Indications that a widespread campaign of terror attacks by Al Qaeda in Europe and America is imminent.

#17. A sudden move within Washington political circles, particularly amongst GOP lawmakers seeking to abandon the President's policies in regards to Iraq.

#18. Lawmakers of both parties lining up behind the President's stance on dealing with Iran including the need to keep the military option on the table.

More Intelligence Analysis

Iraq Now Coming Apart At Seams

New developments behind the scenes in Iraq indicate that within a matter of weeks, if not days, the nation of Iraq as we know it, will no longer exist as a single, functioning nation. The Shiites in the south, particularly around Basra, are reportedly preparing to effectively secede from the central government in Baghdad. It's been a almost a separate entity anyway for the past year or more but new leadership there is reported to be fed up with the "federal" or central government. The leadership there is not interested in giving up it's oil revenues to other parts of Iraq, so as usual, it seems this conflict is primarily about money and greed. The southern shiites do not wish to share with their northern counterparts whether they be Shiite, Sunni or Kurds.

The leadership claims it wants to be independent and not allied with Iran and for that reason is making overtures to Saudi Arabia for recognition as an independent nation. The leadership also seeks Saudi protection against military encroachment by Iran. Their sales pitch is that they can be a rich, strong and friendly Shiite nation along the Saudi border and act as a buffer against Iranian hegemony against Saudi Arabia. The Saudi leadership is reportedly considering the concept but has yet to respond with an answer either pro or con. The Saudis will be very wary of a separate Shiite nation on its border no matter how much the leadership claims to be anti-Iranian. This is most likely due in part to a new and growing realization that for all practical purposes, Iran has declared war on the West and has begun executing a new type of war tactic of "terrorism by proxy."

Meanwhile ...

Iran is behind the UK terror - the Iranians have begun the war against the US/UK/Israel. British authorities are now deeper into their investigation of the recently foiled terror attacks and have begun to find that the tentacles of Iran, reaching into Iraq and the insurgent groups are behind the latest round of terror. Counter-terror experts may not yet realize it, but some private, Mideast strategic analysts are now recognizing the recent terrorist actions and their links to Iran. These links indicate that Iran has indirectly begun a 'proxy war" against the West, including the UK, by relying on third party terrorist groups including Al Qaeda and lesser terror groups such as the Ansar al-Islam terror group now situated in Iraq.

It should be noted that Ansar al-Islam is a potent internationl terror force in its own right, although not nearly what it was before the US invasion of Iraq in 2003. The US smashed the groups main operating bases in Iraq which were its 'home bases" for worldwide terrorism. Saddam Hussein had given the group a welcome sanctuary in the 1990s to be an allied asset against any future US invasion of Iraq. While the US smashed Ansar al-Islam's bases in Iraq, the group's international terror structure remained intact in places such as Western Europe, mainly in Britain, Italy, Germany, Sweden, the Far East and such places as India, Pakistan and even Australia. So Ansar al-Islam has wide tentacles in its own right, and not so dissimilar to that of Al Qaeda.

The difference now is that Ansar al-Islam is no longer headquartered in Iraq, but has instead re-located to Iran. Instructions for its operators around the world are distributed through a network of channels in Turkey which makes Turkey an 'unwitting' player in the terror war. In fact, Turkey has become a "proxy outlet" for terrorist's activities that emerge from Iran and are funnelled out into the West via Turkey. Whether we prophecy watchers realize it or not, the Turkish nation has become a key player supporting Iran and Syria's war against Israel and the West. The Turkish government is well aware of this activity and has allowed it to develop and continue.

For this reason, you will now begin hearing more news media talk of a widening in the War on Terror by the terrorists who are taking the war back to the homelands of Western nations instead of merely fighting the West on their own territories. You will not likely see for awhile at least, any reference to the notion that Iran has begun a "proxy war" against the West. Such an admission is not likely to happen until the US and UK governments have all the facts and documentation lined up that can be taken to the UN for approval to wage direct warfare against Iran.

The Bush administration has been waiting all along for a justifiable excuse to wage open war against Iran as the leading "rogue nation" fomenting international terrorism. Once those charges can be made in the world court of public opinion, the Bush administration is counting on the UN greenlighting a war against Iran. This is has been the US strategy all along.

Iran, realizing that the US was determined to attack Iran before its nuclear program could produce nuclear weapons, has agreed to oblige the US with justifiable provocation by launching a "proxy war" via terrorism, much like it used Hezbollah in 2006 to wage war against Israel. This new edition of "proxy warfare" however is more terroristic in structure than a military structure involving geographical land take-over, at least initially.

The Iranians have activiated a "proxy war" by using ill-defined terrorist tactics that on the surface bear little resemblance to normal warfare. In normal warfare, armies battle for land, but in the Terror War, the main battle ground is in the mind, at least initially. Later it will develop into assymetrical, guerilla-style warfare with flashes of conventional warfare tactics included as the war develops.

Iran's War Strategy?

According to some non-governmental "intelligence" analysts and organizations, Iran has a very complicated war strategy for defeating the United States, Israel and the "Western Powers." The following is a compilation of key points of an Iranian war strategy as gleaned from various non-governmental "intelligence" groups and or Mideast analysts.

The Iranian war plans call for the war to begin as follows:

#1. In Lebanon, with a wave of terror attacks designed to destabilize the government of Lebanon by using third party terrorists, including Al Qaeda and lesser terror groups battling the Lebanese government. The objective is to overthrow the current, democratic government and replace it with a more radical, fundamentalist leadership group. This plan does not include the use of Hezbollah because the West realizes that Hezbollah is nothing but a "proxy army" for Iran, so Hezbollah in the early stages must remain out of the fray. This first step began back in the Spring, with Al Qaeda forces taking up forward bases in the Palestinian camps. This has kept the Lebanese army busy in northern Lebanon and enabling Hezbollah to complete its preparations for resuming last year's war with Israel.

#2. In Yemen, where Al Qaeda terrorists will wage a terror campaign to overthrow the Yemeni government. This campaign theater began open operations a few days ago with the bombing of an ancient 3,000 year old temple dedicated to the Queen of Sheba. That event killed a few tourists and was the opening salvo in a campaign to overthrow that government.

#3. In Pakistan, a new terror campaign is being launched to overthrow the Pakistani government and replace it with a Taliban-oriented government enabling Pakistans nuclear weapons to fall into the hands of Islamic extremists. Such a move would give Iran access to perhaps much of Pakistan's nuclear arsenal which consists of around 40 nuclear bombs, some already mounted on intermediate range ballistic missiles. This could make Iran an "Instantaneous Nuclear Power" should Iran's proxy allies in Pakistan pull off their coup attempt that is now surreptitiously begining in Pakistan with the takeover by radical elements of a large mosque and schools operating within blocks of the Pakistani government's key buildings and headquarters.

#4. In Saudi Arabia, where a new terror campaign will be launched to overthrow the Saudi government.

#5. In Kuwait, where a new terror campaign will be launched to overthrow the Kuwaiti government.

#6. In Western Europe, beginning with Britain where the first attacks will be implemented by little-known third party terrorist groups spun out of the Iraqi conflict. The attacks will spread to Spain, France and then Germany for their military forces being used as "peace-keepers" in Lebanon. When the more convention warfare shooting begins, these forces acting under UNIFIL command will become targets for Hezbollah and Al Qaeda forces. Hezbollah, using Iranian-supplied cruise missiles known as the C-802 Silkworm missiles will direct missile attacks against the European naval forces now parked off the coast of Lebanon.

#7. In America, with a spectacular Al Qaeda attack against the United States. This is thought to likely be some sort of series of coordinated attacks of WMD nature, possibly even nuclear attacks using portable "suitcase" nukes smuggled into the USA and detonated in certain key cities of America. This scenario has long been speculated as a possibility and while at this point remains conjecture, the only thing analysts are getting indications of is that however the attack materializes it will be spectacular and very devastating, at least on a psychological basis, if not on a physical and or economic basis.

#8. In Iraq, simultaneous to the terror attacks into the USA homeland, Iranian "proxy Iraqi militias" and Al Qaeda will move en-masse in a grand strategic coordinated campaign and begin attacking US and Allied forces located in Iraq in a more traditional guerilla warfare approach to begin taking and holding terrain, with the idea of routing US military forces and send them fleeing out of the country, with the only escape routes being through Turkey or Jordan but cut off from a southern exit by newly invading Iranian Revolutionary Guards forces.

#9. It will be simultaneously followed by Iranian missile strikes on US naval targets in the Persian Gulf and the Indian Ocean. The key targets will be US aircraft carriers and their support fleets. The Iranians will be relying on not only their standard C-802 Silkworm missiles but also French Exocet and Russian Kh-12 cruise missiles and perhaps their own cruise missiles adapted from the Kh-12 cruise missiles. The Iranians may also utilize their small fleet of Russian Kilo-class submarines operating in the Persian Gulf which can also fire cruise missiles. There is even an outside chance that one or more of the submarines might even venture out into the Indian ocean to take a shot at US naval forces, should the US not have any carriers operating in the Gulf. The whole plan here is to sink the major aircraft carriers and also especially the amphibious ships capable of launching amphibious landings on Iranian shores.

#10. Iran will then move to seal off the Straits of Hormuz, most likely mining the waters.

#11. Iranian strategic missile barrages against Israel, and US facilities in the Persian Gulf as well as Saudi and Kuwaiti oil facilities.

#12. Simultaneous to Iranian military actions against the US in Iraq, Hezbollah and Syria will launch an invasion of Israel from the North, with Hamas forces in Gaza acting as a thorn in Israel's backside, keeping Israel so occupied on 3 fronts that Israel won't have the resources to launch any "Project Samson" plan against Iran and Syria. "Project Samson" calls for an Israeli nuclear retaliatory strike that destroys its enemies while itself is being annihilated.

Syria believes that it can whip Israel and takeover much if not the entire nation of Israel in one week's time. Syria's President Assad believes he will become a Muslim hero of epic proportions by leading his forces to victory in conquering and retaking Jerusalem for Islam and restoring Islams' third holiest site - the Temple Mount - to Islamic ownership. Syrian and Iranian leadership think that based upon last summer's war, the Israeli military is in no condition to successfully defend the nation of Israel against a joint Hezbollah, Syrian invasion that uses "asymmetrical warfare tactics."

The Syrians are no fools. They realize that in a conventional style of army-to-army battlefield tactics, Israel would clean their clocks for lunch, but the IDF is not prepared nor organized properly to deal with asymmetrical warfare as demonstrated in the Lebanon war of 2006.

What Syria fails to realize is that Israel was fighting with both its hands tied behind its back by diplomatic restraints imposed by the USA, the UN and by deliberate restraint and mismangement by an incompetent Israeli Prime Minister and his cabinet. Syria is banking on the same restraints remaining in place in a future conflict. However, we can expect the Israeli military to stage a coup should a war break out. That coup would sideline incompetent politicians and the military leadership would take over and conduct a 'no-holds-barred' strategy of warfare.

In other words, Israeli forces would make up their own rules for war as they go along. There would be no more concern for civilian casualties. Instead, Israeli military leaders would consider Arab civilians as much an enemy as Arab soldiers and begin conducting genocide as Syrian and Iranian missile attacks begin wiping out Israeli civilians indiscriminately. It will be a return to an "eye for an eye" type of war. It will be bloody.

There is one caveat to all of this. There might well be a "joker" in the deck. Israeli and US forces rely upon sophisticated computer-technology in their advanced weapons platforms such as missiles, planes, ships, vehicles, artillery, and communications. This technology runs on computer chips and most of the newer equipment of the past 10+ years was made with computer chips from Red China.

In an article published earlier this year by investigative journalist, William Thomas, the US military has learned that these Red Chinese computer chips have a fatal flaw that can cause the chips to malfunction and shut down when activated by a special electromagnetic energy pulse. This pulse could cripple any system within the range of the pulse. The Red Chinese have purposely rigged this achilles heel into the computer chips that now reside in anything involving computer circuitry, including missiles, warplanes, helicopters, radar, satellites, cellphones, laptops, communications, tanks, humvees, ships, including and especially aircraft carriers.

Here is an excerpt from the afore mentioned article by William Thomas:

"This means that in the event of an attack launched by the United States against Iran, an electromagnetic pulse from a deliberate or accidental nuclear detonation—or from a directed energy weapon manned by Chinese technicians defending their country’s interests ashore—will cause many or most American offensive and defensive missile systems to fail to fire, explode on launch, or not detonate on target. Some weapons may even emulate WWII torpedoes and Vietnam-era Sidewinders and boomerang back on the ship, plane or vehicle that launched them.

"Any detonation of Bush’s beloved “low yield” bunker-buster, an Iranian nuclear power plant, or shipboard reactor “could deactivate the U.S. Navy,” as Hank put it—along with all other command, control, communications and weapons circuits quietly humming in some forgotten but vital piece of equipment aloft, afloat or alongshore in the Persian Gulf.
"To rig the Trojan chips, “pick a frequency that isn’t in nature above 23,000 hertz or below 2 hertz… at power levels only you can produce,” Hank invited. Jackie the sailor would not be able to misdial her sonar and shut down the entire fleet because “the pressure and wattage, as well as the frequency equivalent to an EMP” would be needed to do melt all those microchips. And that “could only come from a nuclear blast,” Hank added.

"Or a pulse weapon. Hank was also informed that if attacked, Chinese technicians in Iran could make every vulnerable circuit within range “melt when hit by a microwave” tuned to their vulnerable frequency.

"If that happens, this military tech added, “You would immobilize the entirety of any response we would have. No radars. No engines to mobilize troops; to supply electricity. We’d be on foot. That’s it. Oops!”

"With vaunted American firepower reduced to assault rifles and bayonets, Iran will employ human-wave attacks using barefoot teenage conscripts packed with as many IEDs as have not yet been exported to their Shiite brethren in Baghdad. “And they will win by attrition.”

"Hank agreed with me that after Putin’s recent “America must be stopped” remarks, and Bush’s humiliating and costly eviction of China from its major oil investments in Iraq into even heavier infrastructure capitalization in Iran—neither superpower is going to allow the United States to “put a stranglehold” on them by once again controlling Iran’s oil."

See link here for the full Thomas' article.

I point this out, to note that Israel also uses much of this same computer circuitry made in China. Israel is also vulnerable. It is entirely possible that when the shooting starts, Israel's sophisticated weaponry may fail to function. If so, Israel would be absolutely 100% helpless and so would Israel's main allies, the USA and Westner Europe. The only hope for Israel's salvation would be Divine Intervention. Enter in - The Ezekiel Prophecies.

Biblically Prophetic Implications:

The Magog Invasion?

It should be noted that Turkey has 50,000 troops sitting on the border with Syria and those forces may somehow be drawn into the war and become allied with Syria. IFFF - this is the case, this conflict might well become the "MAGOG WAR" - despite the fact that many prophecy scholars believe the Magog Invasion will be by Russia and not Turkey-Syria-Iran-Libya confederation.

It should be noted that in the past two weeks, Libya's Muammar Gadaffi has called for a 2 million man African Army, to be led by Libya's own dictator. Libya, may well join in any such conflagration, particularly if it appears that the Iran-Syria confederation looks like it will become victorious. Gadaffi may well send a contingent of his own forces to aid in the war against Israel. Such an involvement by Libya would be the final nation involved in the Magog war, along with contingents of guerilla fighters from Algeria, Somalia, Ethiopia and other African nations operating under the Al Qaeda banner in Lebanon.

There are other Biblically prophetic ramifications possible in this scenario, including the "Mystery Babylon" or Babylon-America prophecies. I'll be dealing more on this in a later and separate article looking primarily at Jeremiah 51.

As it now stands, the aforementioned parties involved are situated in such a way that we might see a fulfillment of the Magog prophecies as well as the Babylon prophecies and both at or near the same time, in essentiall the same time-frame which at the moment appears to be sometime this year. The signals are in fact pointing towards fulfillments in the coming days, weeks or months, dependant of course on Divine permission. IF, these plans are not permitted by the Creator because its not yet time, then God will intervene to halt such actions and put everything on hold, much as it was last year when a similar type of an attempt was made. Nothing will happen prematurely on God's time table of predicted events.

New Developments for Mark of the Beast Technology

A-O Report Special Coverage

Apparently the 6-6-6 technology company known as the VeriChip Corporation has spun off its RFID computer chip implant division into a separate company called Xmark corporation. This is but yet another in a series of transformations that began originally back in the 1980s originally under IBM sponsored research. In 1993, a new company, Applied Digitial began as an information technology investments company which acquired 60 technology product-services companies in its first six years of operation It shifted gears dramatically though with the 9-11 terror attacks in 2001.
-
After the terror attacks, Applied Digital focused its business model on a core group businesses it formed including "VeriChip Corporation," Digital Angel Corporation," and Government Technologies Inc. (GTI) and "ThermoLife Energy Corporation."
-
The field of 6-6-6 technology though, didn't take off until 2004 when the US FDA (Food & Drug Administration) approved the "VeriChip" computer chip for human implantation as an identification and information tool for the medical world. The VeriChip (known also in the early days as the "Angel chip") was designed for more than just medical applications. It was designed for multiple applications in the security and access control industry for both the private sector and for the US Federal Government - according to Applied Digital's own testimonials.
-
The company's strategy was to initially gain approval for medical applications from the U.S. government and societal-cultural approval and acceptance in the face of expected religious opposition and privacy advocates. The RFID computer chip technology industry, led by Applied Digital and its subsidiaries continues to fight for cultural and societal acceptance primarily through retail and wholesale business applications for manufactured goods using RFID technology for inventory management control plus the medical industry's use of human implanted chips for medical identification and patient information storage. The industry has made dramatic inroads within the retail and wholesale business world, but the medical applications, while growing quickly are not nearly as dramatic as in the retail-wholesale world.
-
The next step in the evolution of 6-6-6 RFID technology is in the banking world, where RFID chips are now being implemented initially into credit/debit cards for extra security measures. Behind the scenes however, plans are in place for a mandatory personal identification system (PIS) using RFID computer chip implants into human being's hands that forms the basis for "SIN" - a "singular identification network." Details of such a system are now in developed and ready for implementation.
-
All that is needed is governmental laws mandating such technology usage for security identification against terrorism and illegal immigration. The first step in bringing on that system is the new US national identity law passed by Congress mandating national identification cards to be administered by each of the 50 states. This new law is being met with a remarkable level of resistance from a dozen or so states and great reservations from nearly every other state in the union. The law is scheduled to take effect with implementation in 2008 but the majority of states do not appear to be ready for such implementation by that time frame. It will likely take a major terror strike of immense proportions to break the resistance of the states to such a national identification system.
-
It is more likely that in the event of a massive terror strike, the "card" concept will be replaced by the RFID computer chip implant technology, which the RFID industry is now gearing towards as part of a total SIN solutions package for banking, medical and business purposes.
-
Even with such implementation by the U.S. the result is not a total fulfillment of the Biblical prophecy of Revelation 13 known as the "mark of the beast." Why? There are two reasons why it would not yet be a total fulfillment.
-
#1. The implementation by the US of such a system would be only for the USA and not for the whole world. The prophecy notes that the "mark of the beast" would be for the world not merely a single nation. However, with the US implementation of such a program, the rest of the world would likely not be far behind.
-
#2. The prophecy states that the "mark of the beast" is a form of worship directed to the "beast' who is described as a person, not a system or a concept itself. So that the implementation of a system in the US would not in and of itself fulfill the "worship of a person" aspect.
-
This means that the RFID and the 6-6-6 technology being implemented in the USA would simply be the forerunner to the ultimate prophetic fulfillment that would take place with the advent of the Antichrist onto the world stage as a world dictator.
-
The ability to implement the 6-6-6 RFID implant program is not yet possible in practicality, primarily due to the need for billions of chips to be manufactured. It might well take a year or two to produce enough personal implant chips and to get a support structure in place to conduct mass implantations and also produce the relevant "reader" systems for each and every business, medical facility and governmental application. It may even take longer than two years from this point in time, but as each year passes, such a lag time for implementation shrinks as the industry itself grows.
-
So what does this mean for those of us who are Biblical Prophecy watchers?
The ability for fulfillment of Biblical Prophecies regarding the "mark of the beast" are in reality still a couple or three years away at best and perhaps more like 4 to 5 years away from being fulfillable IF the prophecies are referencing RFID computer-chip technology.
-
For those prophecy students who hold to the view that the "mark of the beast" comes in the middle of the 7 years of Tribulation (at the Abomination of Desolation) then perhaps the RFID chip technology is likely to be in place should the Tribulation actually start tomorrow. For those who think the Tribulation is merely 3 and a half years and begins with the Abomination of Desolation then that event could still be further down the calendar from now anyway.
One thing that seems clear though is that the development of RFID technology is moving in a relatively swift manner and meets all of the pre-requisites for being the fulfillment for the Biblical 6-6-6 prophecies.
-
There are some who object to the idea that RFID chips are or could be the "mark of the beast." There are those who assert that the prophecy refers only to some form of "tatooing." They base this on a strict interpretation of the Greek term used which nominally means "to etch" or "engrave." They believe that the term must refer strictly to a tattoo. What they fail to understand is that a computer chip is also "etched" or engraved with special circuitry. That is what makes the chip possible is the "etching" of such circuits and then the etched chip is inserted into the hand.
-
Clearly, the RFID computer chip qualifies as a candidate for being the "mark of the beast" in ways far better than a tattoo. The 6-6-6 Technology company Verichip is changing its trademark from "verichip" to "Xmark."
-
If you roll to the link below, you'll only remain on that URL for about 10 seconds before it will transport you to the new page "Xmark."

America - A Nation of Apathy toward Truth!

America - A Nation of Apathy toward Truth!

"Why do ye not understand my speech? Even because ye cannot hear my word. Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it. And because I tell you the truth, ye believe me not."

John 8:43-45
"And then shall that wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming: Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie. That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness."

II Thessalonians 2:8-12
"And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient; Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness, full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity, whisperers, backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, without understanding, covenant breakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful."

Romans 1:28-31
In this issue of the Last Trumpet Newsletter, we will examine the greatest of all problems in the United States at this present time. In fact, it is the condition that leads to all other problems and allows Satan and his Illuministic human stooges to advance their cause and hellish agenda of one-world governance in a new world order. The problem I am referring to is apathy toward truth.

In the Scriptures above, our Saviour told us that it has always been Satan's job and purpose to lay a foundation of deceit and build upon it with lies. Lies thrive in the darkness of misunderstanding and secrecy, but truth shines forth and cannot be hid. People everywhere have a choice to accept or reject the light of truth. If they reject truth, there is nothing left but the darkness of Satan's kingdom and domain. The Lord Jesus clearly stated this as the greatest problem in the world in John 3:19 as follows: "And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil."

We now live in a world full of people who believe a whole lot of things that just aren't so, and they know very little about what is truly happening. It has been correctly stated that you can sell lies, but you cannot give the truth away. I might add that the truth is freely given to all who would gladly receive it and love it. Lies, however, always come with an ever-increasing price. Religions, governments, commerce, and every endeavor of sinful man are built on lies and deceit and are perpetuated by them. All that Satan has built up and established in the world through wars, commotions, craftiness of conspiracies, varieties of religions, and brainwashing philosophies are leading up to one great lie and grand deception at the end of this world. Even now, and more than ever, people everywhere are caught in its tentacles. The world is caught in a world wide web, an ensnaring net or Internet. The effect of all of this is converting people into living images of the beast; who look, talk, and act like programmed stooges and obey like trained seals. These people have no capacity for truth as our Saviour said, and when the throne of the antichrist makes its grand crescendo to rise up, only to quickly fall; the masses of people will rise and fall with it when the last trumpet sounds and our Saviour appears and the sky is filled with heavenly angels. This wondrous and marvelous event is not far off. The urgent question is: are you ready for that imminent day? Where will you be for eternity? The truth is that religion will never save you, and neither will your own best behavior. Only the Lord Jesus can save you, and He will if your truly repent, turn away from evil, and obey the Gospel as they did on the day of Pentecost. You will know immediate peace when you do this. Do it now, while there is a little time left!

Death of a Nation and the Sign of 400 Years!

This year of 2007 is the 400th anniversary of America. (1) The Jamestown colony was founded in 1607 as the first settlement in America, and it was named after the same King James of England that ordered the translation of the Authorized Version, also known as the King James Bible. In a previous publication, I mentioned that the number 400 is highly significant in the Scripture. Israel was in bondage in Egypt for 400 years, and there were 400 years of silence between the Old and New Testaments during which time there was no prophet. In both of these cases, when the 400 years were over, there was a great manifestation of the Almighty in a sovereign move of His Spirit that changed the world forever. Now, America has existed for 400 years! What will happen next?

We know that Satan has been active in the United States of America since its inception, and he has walked to and fro, and up and down in it. The footprints of Satan are seen everywhere in this country although few people recognize them. The powers of occultism and witchcraft have now seized upon this apathetic country, and signs of the end are everywhere. Here let it be noted that in 1990 the elder President Bush, who was the first head of state to use the words New World Order since Adolph Hitler, admitted that he used a crystal ball to make decisions. In an article that appeared in the April 1997 issue of Ladies' Home Journal, we find the following words on page 126: "….Bush was charmed, he brought out this crystal ball, and said, 'Look Nayib, this is how we make decisions at the White House'….." (2)

For hundreds of years, this country has been guided by a strange spirit that is not the Almighty God although the One True God has always blessed and watched over His elect remnant that has the testimony of Jesus Christ. It is for the sake of the Gospel that this nation has survived thus far, not because we are good people.

Satan works in patterns and with numbers shrouded in secrecy. The United States has had exactly thirteen Presidents that were Master Masons in the Blue Lodge and were thus sworn to secrecy. (3) We also know that the clandestine temple room of the Blue Lodge is so named because the ceiling is blue with white stars, which is why our American flag has the exact same pattern in the upper left hand corner. This same blue ceiling with white stars was also in the palace of King Belshazzar of Babylon, which is where God wrote on the wall with the form of a hand and indicated that the kingdom was numbered and finished and weighed in the balances and found wanting and was given over to the Medes and Persians. We must also note that Persia is modern-day Iran!

The footprints or patterns of Satan and his Masonic activities are throughout history, which is why it is said that history repeats itself. Many people have wondered and been amazed at the parallels of the assassinations of Presidents Kennedy and Lincoln and at how the details of the events were precise mirror images of each other. Although many people have heard them, I will present the details once again as carefully planned and manipulated activities of the masterminds of the Illuminati as directed by the force of the one they call the controlling unknown. Consider the following: Abraham Lincoln was elected to Congress in 1846, and John F. Kennedy was elected to Congress in 1946. Lincoln was elected President in 1860, and Kennedy was elected President in 1960. Both were heavily involved in civil rights. Both lost a child while living in the White House. Both Presidents were shot on a Friday, and both were shot in the head. Lincoln's secretary was named Kennedy, and Kennedy's secretary was named Lincoln. Both were assassinated by southerners, and both were succeeded by southerners named Johnson. Andrew Johnson, who succeeded Lincoln, was born in 1808. Lyndon Johnson, who succeeded Kennedy, was born in 1908. John Wilkes Booth, who assassinated Lincoln, was born in 1839, and Lee Harvey Oswald, who was charged with the assassination of Kennedy, was born in 1939. Both alleged assassins were known by their three names, which in both cases were comprised of fifteen letters. Lincoln was shot at Ford's theater, and Kennedy was shot in a Lincoln car made by Ford. Lincoln was shot in a theater, and his assassin ran and hid in a warehouse. Kennedy's alleged assassin was said to have shot from a warehouse and then to have run to a theater. Booth and Oswald were both shot before their trials. One week before Lincoln was shot, he was in Monroe, Maryland; and one week before Kennedy was shot, he was with Marilyn Monroe. The list goes on and on.

I must also note that John F. Kennedy's mistress, Marilyn Monroe, was a mind-controlled sex slave who was targeted for assassination herself. When she sang happy birthday to President Kennedy in New York City in a sultry and seductive voice, she was introduced by Peter Lawford as the late Marilyn Monroe. Shortly thereafter, she was dead!

It is true that a crescendo of evil has been building in this country for some time, and lately we have been witnessing amazing signs from on high. On May 17th, 2007, a 72 mile-per-hour wind swept through Manhattan along with a deluge of rain. (In occult numerology, the number seventy-two is broken down to twelve sixes. In witchcraft, this indicates three sixes from the four night winds.) Then, in the darkness of that night storm in Manhattan, a massive bolt of blue-white lightning struck the Empire State Building. It was a shocking display of power, and it arrested the attention of all who saw it. (4) Here let it also be noted that former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani, who is the cross-dressing candidate for President of the United States, was clearly warned by the Almighty while speaking at a debate in New Hampshire on June 8th, 2007. Giuliani was speaking in favor of abortion before a vast audience when lightning struck and knocked out his microphone six different times. It was as if God was telling Rudy Giuliani to shut up six times. The stunned speaker stopped his speech and said, "Having gone to a parochial school, this is a bit frightening." The audience then joined him as he joked and laughed it off! (5)

Another thing that must be mentioned about Rudy Giuliani is that his tongue slipped recently, and he made an amazing admission. Giuliani was speaking at a fundraiser in the Bronx on May 29th, 2007, when he was surprised by two people in the crowd who accused him of knowing in advance that the twin towers would come down on September 11th, 2001, and thus he allowed the death of many people to occur. One accusing woman said to Giuliani, "How do you sleep at night?" The stunned former New York City Mayor quickly tried to defend himself, then he said, "I didn't realize the towers would collapse. No one that I know of had any idea they would implode." (6) The word implode means to demolish from within. The former Mayor knew full well that the planes couldn't and didn't bring those mighty towers down; they were brought down by numerous demolition bombs inside the buildings. This was an amazing admission, but it fell on apathetic ears.

Other Signs of a Dying Nation!

These are strange and confusing times for the people of the United States. On April 26th, 2007, the Dow Index of the stock market hit an all-time high of 13,000. (7) The very next day, Bloomberg News Service reported: Dollar declines to all-time low against the Euro as the economy slows. (8) Such extremes indicate extreme global economic instability. The people of America are now functioning on credit to the extent that they have almost nothing of true value. We are a bankrupt nation that is being forced into a hostile takeover by antichrist forces. People are being set up to receive a new, exclusively electronic, money system, which will be the only way to buy or sell. Leather wallets and purses are giving way to microchips and radio frequency identification devices. All of this is clearly foretold in Revelation, chapter 13. It is undeniable because it is happening before our very eyes.

We also see the massive transportation systems of the United States challenged economically by fuel prices that are nothing short of obscene. We have now learned that OPEC, the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries, has scheduled its 144th meeting, which is to be held in Vienna, Austria. The date they have chosen for this fateful meeting is one of ominous foreboding. That date is September 11th, 2007. (9) The number 144 is twelve twelves, and in the world of the occult, it indicates new government.

When will the next major assault against America occur on American soil? Apparently, our government is expecting (or should I say planning) something. A major control center is being set up in northeast Pennsylvania that will take over for Wall Street if a terrorist attack or power outage occurs. (10) Government officials and CEO's of industry have worked out a plan with Goldman Sachs, Merrill Lynch, Morgan Stanley, and others to build a forty-million dollar facility in the Pocono Mountains of Pennsylvania, and it will be ready to manage the entire nation's economy within thirty months. (11) Will this control center, hidden in the eastern mountains of Pennsylvania, be the nerve center of the Antichrist, controlling all buying and selling? Strangely enough, the precise latitude of this new forth-coming facility is North 41-08.042666.

Truly, the erstwhile great nation of the United States of America is being set up for the kill, and the CFR, Council on Foreign Relations, is orchestrating the death of this nation. This foul outfit known as the CFR is the Illuminati in the United States, and its headquarters is located at the Harold Pratt Building, 58 East 68th Street, Manhattan in New York City. I can assure you that this place does exist, and that it is the Illuminati headquarters. I know because I was kicked out of that building three times. It is the CFR that is promoting the influx of illegal aliens and the demise of the American way of life in order to establish the triumviral power of the North American Union, comprised of Mexico, Canada, and the United States. The new currency that is to weld the societies together and manage them is to be called the Amero Dollar.

One vital point that must be stressed is that when I refer to illegal aliens, I am not referring to a race of people, but rather a class of millions of law-breakers who have invaded our country. In fact, America is currently suffering the largest single invasion of a nation in the history of the world, and very few care about it. By every standard of measurement, we have lost our country! Consider the following shocking statistics: The number of illegal aliens in the United States is 20,807,645. The money wired to Mexico since January, 2006, totals $22,213,001,672.00. The cost of Social Security Services for illegal aliens since 1996 totals $397,450,739,563.00. (This is over one-third of a trillion dollars). The number of children of illegal aliens in public schools is 3,958,789. The cost of illegal aliens in grades K-12 since 1996 is $13,965,063,431.00. The number of illegal aliens incarcerated is 332,594. The cost of incarcerations for illegal aliens since 2001 is $1,398,127,429.00. The number of skilled jobs taken by illegal aliens is 9,872,838. (12)

Recently, the popular newspaper USA Today published a report entitled "Nation's minority numbers top 100 million." Included in the report were the following growth rate statistics by group: Hispanic 25.5%, Asian 24.4%, Native American 7.7%, Black 6.9%, and White 1.6%. (13) It must be noted that the white people have a far greater propensity to abort their babies and are guilty of self-inflicted genocide.

We are now hearing about the new NAFTA Superhighway, which is now ready to be built. It was during the Clinton Administration when the North American Free Trade Agreement, NAFTA, was passed. This treaty was a satanic scheme to unify the economies of the United States, Canada, and Mexico. It has virtually destroyed the industrial base in America. The NAFTA plan also called for a superhighway to be built to connect the North American nations for ease of the flow of goods. As it turns out, most of those goods are made in Red China. Soon following the NAFTA agreement, there came an U.S. Supreme Court ruling which expanded the laws of Eminent Domain. These laws allow even private business interests to force land and property owners to give up their real estate in favor of what is esteemed to be in the "best interest" of the majority of society. Now we know why all of this was done. It was to accommodate the building of the invasive corridor that will divide our country and fragment it.

The NAFTA Superhighway is to run from Mexico to Canada, crossing through the United States from Laredo, Texas, to Duluth, Minnesota. The halfway point is Kansas City, Missouri, which is about one thousand miles from either border. The cost of the highway will be $183 billion in new taxes and tolls. The highway is to be the width of four football fields, or nearly one-quarter mile wide. Tens of thousands of American homes, ranches, farms, businesses, and even entire communities will be razed and wiped off the map through Eminent Domain. (14)

Clearly, the massive highway will divide our country in half, and later, into fragments. We know that Satan works in patterns, and even though some prophecies are already fulfilled, we see what appear to be additional fulfillments or similitudes of prophecy. We were told it would be so in Hosea 12:10 as follows: "I have also spoken by the prophets, and I have multiplied visions, and used similitudes, by the ministry of the prophets." Thus, the prophecies have not only one fulfillment, but are rather multiplied. When I think of our nation being cut in half and subsequently fragmented, I am reminded of Daniel 11:39, which describes the activity of an antichrist ruler as follows: "Thus shall he do in the most strong holds with a strange god, whom he shall acknowledge and increase with glory: and he shall cause them to rule over many, and shall divide the land for gain."

Joel's Prophecy of the Last World War!

The prophet Joel warned us of a final conflict that would lead up to the return of the Lord Jesus Christ, who will come back to this earth with fiery judgment. In Joel 2:30-31 we read as follows: "And I will shew wonders in the heavens and in the earth, blood, and fire, and pillars of smoke. The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and the terrible day of the Lord come." Likewise, we read in Joel 3:14-15, "Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision: for the day of the Lord is near in the valley of decision. The sun and the moon shall be darkened, and the stars shall withdraw their shining."

The prophet Joel describes a series of events which first involve blood, fire, and pillars of smoke. Remember how the twin towers of the World Trade Center were reduced to two pillars of smoke in the midst of blood and fire? Following that tragic event, the entire Middle East became a valley of decision for multitudes, who, for the most part, do not even know what is going on. Wars and rumors of wars fill the news every day. When distractions are needed, there is always some celebrity who is arrested or some scandal that breaks out. It is interesting to note that Paris Hilton is serving jail time at the Twin Towers Correctional Facility in California.

Meanwhile, the war in Iraq grows ever hotter. U.S. General Ronald Keys of the Air Combat Command recently declared that the U.S. Air Fleet is wearing down. Wings are cracked, electrical cables are frayed, and maintenance costs are up 87% just to patch the defective aircraft. (15) Many things are going wrong for the United States, and while there is much talk about global warming, the real problem is global sinning!

On May 22nd, 2007, the United States announced the testing of a new state-of-the-art missile defense system. (16) On May 27th, 2007, the U.S. decided to scrap the test program because of misfires. It was an embarrassing flop! (17) While all of this was going on, Russian President Vladimir Putin began to intensify his threats and opposition to the U.S. missile shield in Eastern Europe. (18) On June 11th, 2007, Putin called for a "new financial world order." A special meeting is being scheduled in St. Petersburg, Russia, where heads of major corporations will be gathering to witness Russia's new economic strength. (19) These are indeed the days of secret meetings, councils, and a new world order.

On May 24th, 2007, Israeli soldiers rounded up and captured thirty-three Palestinian leaders. (20) Iranian leader Ahmadinejad responded as follows: "If this year you repeat the same mistake of the last year, the ocean of nations of the region will get angry and will cut root of the Zionist regime from its stem." (21) All of the signs of an impending war are now appearing. On June 1st, 2007, the U.S. Government issued an official warning to all Americans to not travel to Iran. (22) Historically, such a warning always precedes a war with the country in question. Incidentally, the United States also issued a warning to all Americans to not travel to Venezuela, and this warning was issued on the same day as the warning regarding travel to Iran. (23) The Iraqi War continues to escalate; U.S. troops' death rate is now the highest of the war. (24) On May 25th, Congress approved another $95 billion for wars. (25) President Bush has also created a new and powerful office in the United States. Lt. General Douglas Lute was appointed War Czar on May 16th, 2007. This man is to be in charge of all wars. (26) Will this new War Czar now begin to foment a war with the ancient land of Persia, which is modern-day Iran?

On May 23rd, the news media reported that large amounts of Iranian money had been found in Baghdad by U.S. troops. The money was seized from eleven buildings. (27) Reports have now come in that Iran has united with forces in Iraq and is planning a summer offensive to drive the United States out of Iraq. (28) As I write this newsletter on June 14th, 2007, there are already nine U.S. warships off the coast of Iran, including the carrier strike groups led by the USS John C. Stennis and USS Nimitz. Landing ships are also packed with 17,000 U.S. Marines and sailors who are involved in "war games." The Marines involved in the landing ships are from the thirteenth Marine Expeditionary Unit. (29) Have you been paying attention to the occult numbers?

Witches, Occultists, and Astrologers are Lunatics!

In the realm of Wiccan witchcraft, the moon is diligently watched; and rituals, incantations, spells, and ceremonies are planned around its cycles. The tens of thousands of initiated witches are especially active right now as their June 21st sabat of Midsummer is on the ascending horizon. While such things cannot harm a true Christian, there is a spiritual pressure generated by all of this activity. We must also realize that the power behind our government is witchcraft, which affects all governmental projects and activities. The reason why the religions of occultism are so incredibly active at this time is because a very rare occurrence has arisen. We know that every month has a full moon, but occasionally a month has a second full moon. This is called a blue moon. This occurred on the last day of May 2007. The strange twist is that the blue moon of May 31st reached full stage so late that it was still full on June 1st. That means there will be a second consecutive blue moon at the end of June 2007. This is very rare and is called a split hemisphere blue moon and is the rarest of all lunar occurrences. Witches believe that a blue moon doubles the power of all spells and ritual work. Two blue moons in consecutive months that bind a quarter and cross-quarter sabat together are believed to double lunar power and influence. In addition to that, the normal full moon of June is called the Dyad Moon, and the word Dyad means double. In other words, this period from May 1st to June 30th is the most unusual period of time that has ever happened since records have been kept. We know that witches and occultists are going berserk at this time, and those involved in these forbidden areas are under a strange and clandestine influence. It is a time when people act and react more strangely than ever in government, Hollywood, religions, and every other endeavor. Some people look at all of this as a joke, but it is a real problem. In Matthew 17:14-18 we read as follows: "And when they were come to the multitude, there came to him a certain man, kneeling down to him, and saying, Lord have mercy on my son: for he is lunatick, and sore vexed: for ofttimes he falleth into the fire, and oft into the water. And I brought him to thy disciples, and they could not cure him. Then Jesus answered and said, O faithless and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you? How long shall I suffer you? Bring him hither to me. And Jesus rebuked the devil; and he departed out of him: and the child was cured from that very hour."

As we read the above Scriptures, we must understand that the word lunatick as it appears in our Bible, literally means moonstruck. The people of our nation are so moonstricken that the Harry Potter witchcraft stories are runaway best sellers. Now we have learned that the deceived and misled people of the United States will soon have a Harry Potter Theme Park, which is to open in 2009. It will be located in Orlando, Florida, and will include Hogwart's School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, the Forbidden Forest, and Hogsmeade Village. (30) There are many other ways that the masses of people are involved in witchcraft, and most do not even realize it. Is our nation moonstruck? Are we becoming a nation of lunatics? Once you know what to look for, witchcraft is everywhere you look!

On June 8th, the space shuttle Atlantis lifted off from Area 39 at the Kennedy Space Center. The liftoff was delayed by damaging hailstones, lightning strikes, and a weird love triangle. Witnesses said the liftoff produced a strange knot of contrails in the sky with the light of the planet Venus peeking through so strangely that people gasped. The entire flight was scheduled to be 11 days but was extended to 13 days. (31) This makes the new return date precisely on the Wicca sabat of Midsummer on June 21st. After Atlantis docked at the International Space Station, some of the computers went into vital failure. There is trouble in this thirteen story space station with its thirteen compartments, and its thirteen thousand pound doors. Truly, the signs of the last of the last days are many, and prophecy is being fulfilled every day. Earthquakes and volcanoes continue, and all of the creation continues to groan and travail. Soon our Saviour will appear to bring all things into judgment. All people will know Him in that great day -- either as Saviour or Judge. How will it be with your soul?

In closing, I would like to especially thank all of you who support this end time prophetic ministry in so many ways. God bless you always and exceedingly for your faithfulness and kindness. We continue to invite you to send your prayer requests, and our prayer teams will give them individual attention. Grace and peace be unto you in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. Also remember that this newsletter is also available in large print for the visually impaired.

"5 US cities targeted for next strike, prophetic and intelligence confirmation"

Frank R Molver (7 July 2007)
"5 US cities targeted for next strike, prophetic and intelligence confirmation"


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This is from 2 different sources I recently heard that make me believe this is the way the next strike will occur. The first was from a Perry Stone show called Manna Fest. He was interviewing an ex boxer who became an evangelist. His nickname was Hurricane. I don't recall his last name and I can't seem to locate it on the web. He had a near death experience when he had an anuerism of the brain and was clinicaly dead. He had an experience in heaven and prior to comming back he was given several warnings from the Lord for the church. One involved a terror plot involving 5 Muslims, 4 men and one woman. It would happen if the US did not repent of and change its abortion law. Interestingly that legal battle is happening now with a possible decision for a new supremem court judge comming and the abortion issue being the liberals litmus test.

The second confirmation came from some recent intelligence data involving a plan to hist 5 major US cities with nukes.

http://abcnews.go.com/Blotter/story?id=3336148

Secret Document: U.S. Fears Terror 'Spectacular' Planned

And from the TFP web site the following discussion.

I don't think it will be suicide bombings.....I think its going to be nukes. If only we had the leadership, this could have been averted years ago.
No pun intended, but Bada-Bing Bada-Boom. It will be nukes. AQ has already told us so. They will be airbone nukes on Cessna-152-like private aircraft over 4 - 6 US cities over a period of a couple of days.

You do not bring down Western society with car bombs near Trafalgar Square or flaming Jeep Cherokee's in Scotland. You bring down Western society with former-Soviet tactical nuclear weapons over major American cities, weapons which have been cared for, revamped or upgraded courtesy of a state-sponsor like Iran or AQ Khan or Russia.

Litvinenko's death is the key to the 'American Hiroshima' plot.

My reponse was to concur with what Eagle Strike had stated - that suicide squads will never be able to bring down this country.

The methodology to bring down America - and Al Qaeda has understood this implicitly since Ayman al-Zawahiri was tasked and released by Moscow and joined Usama bin Laden in the late 1990s - is by the use of multiple attacks with tactical nuclear weapons on our key infrastructure.

Those weapons will be former-Soviet nuclear weapons. According to Stanislav Lunev they've likely been here for some time.

The best use of such weapons will be from an airborne platform - like a Cessna-152 - flying at about 2000 feet over key American cities. Such aircraft can literaly arrive over the selected targets completely undetected. At low altitudes, using tree tops (i.e. 'ground clutter') to mask their radar returns they are more stealthy than an F-117 Nighthawk. Remember the absolute panic a single wayward 152 caused in Washington DC?

A final manuever after getting to the target at tree-top level is a pop-up manuever placing the aircraft at 2000 feet. At this altitude a tactical 10kT device would mimic near exactly over an American city what the A-bomb over Hiroshima did. Hence, Al Qaeda's selected name for this operation and title of its operational Fatwa is "American Hiroshima." It will happen without any further warning.

'Mideast war this summer'

'Mideast war this summer'
Syrian official threatens 'resistance' by September, warns Damascus preparing for large-scale conflict

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Posted: July 8, 2007

GOLAN HEIGHTS – If Israel doesn't vacate the strategic Golan Heights before September, Syrian guerrillas will immediately launch "resistance operations" against the Golan's Jewish communities, a top official from Syrian President Bashar Assad's Baath party told WND.

The Baath official, who spoke on condition his name be withheld, said Damascus is preparing for anticipated Israeli retaliation following Syrian guerrilla attacks and for a larger war with the Jewish state in August or September. He said in the opening salvo of any conflict, Syria has the capabilities of firing "hundreds" of missiles at Tel Aviv.

"Syria passed repeated messages to the U.S. that we demand the return of the Golan either through negotiations or through war. If the Golan is not in our hands by August or September, we will be poised to launch resistance, including raids and attacks against Jewish positions (in the Golan Heights)," the Baath official said.

The Golan Heights is strategic mountainous territory looking down on Israeli population centers captured by Israel after Syria twice used the territory to attack the Jewish state.

The Baath official said a new purported guerrilla group called the Committees for the Liberation of the Golan Heights has been training and is ready to attacks against Jewish communities in the Golan in August or September.

He said Syria is preparing for a war.

"More and more of our units have undergone intensive trainings starting at 6 a.m. and finishing late into the evening. If the need arises, we are ready for a war," said the official.

The official said Syria "learned from the Hezbollah experience last summer and we can have hundreds of missiles hitting Tel Aviv that will overwhelm Israel's anti-missile batteries."

He claimed Syria has "proof" Israel is also readying for a war.

"We hear about special Israeli trainings to take Damascus. We see that Israel is re-establishing bases of the Israeli army in the Golan that are unusual and not needed except for war. We believe the Israeli government has an interest in confronting Syria to rehabilitate its image of losing to Hezbollah," he said.

He also claimed newly installed Israeli Defense Minister Ehud Barak, a former prime minister, "wants to prove he is a military expert."

Israel: Syrian war preparations serious

Israeli security officials confirmed the stepped-up military presence of Syrian troops deployed along the Syrian side of the Golan Heights with strengthened forces after carrying out increased training the last few months. The security officials noted the movement of Syrian Scud missiles near the border with Israel and said Syria recently increased production of rockets and acquired missiles capable of hitting central Israeli population centers.

The Syrian army has improved its fortifications, according to the Israeli security officials, and has received modern, Russian-made anti-tank missiles similar to the missiles that devastated Israeli tanks during the last Lebanon war, causing the highest number of Israeli troop casualties during the 34-days of military confrontations. Syria also received from Russia advanced anti-aircraft missiles.

The security officials said any conflict with Syria could degenerate into a larger war involving Hezbollah along Israel's northern border and Palestinian terror groups launching attacks from Gaza in the south and the West Bank toward the center of Israel.

The officials noted Syria stepped up the pace of weapons, including rockets, being shipped from the Syrian border to the Lebanese Hezbollah militia.

The security officials said the greatest threat Syria poses to the Jewish state are the country's missiles and rockets. They noted Syria recently test-fired two Scud-D surface-to-surface missiles, which have a range of about 250 miles, covering most Israeli territory. The officials said the Syrian missile test was coordinated with Iran and is believed to have been successful. It is not known what type of warhead the missiles had.

In addition to longer-range Scuds, Syria is in possession of shorter-range missiles such as 220 millimeter and 305 millimeter rockets, some of which have been passed on to Hezbollah.

Israel also has information Syria recently acquired and deployed Chinese-made C-802 missiles, which were successfully used against the Israeli navy during Israel's war against Hezbollah last July and August. The missiles were passed to Syria by Iran, Israeli security officials told WND.

Israeli security officials said Syria is indeed preparing for a summer war. But they said there was an argument within the Israeli intelligence community whether the military buildup is for an attack or is meant by Syria to pressure Israel into vacating the Golan Heights. Some officials said Syria estimates the U.S. or Israel will attack Iran, and Syria will be drawn into a larger military confrontation by opening up a front against northern Israel. Also, the officials said, Syria may believe Israel will attack first and its preparations are defensive in nature.

The Israeli army is not taking any chances. The Israel Defense Forces last month reportedly carried out a mock attack on a "Syrian" village during a major exercise in the Negev. The Israeli soldiers besieged and occupied the village, designed to be similar to towns on the Syrian side of the Golan. Similar war exercises were carried out in Israel the past few months, including a mock attack on Damascus.

According to security officials, recent U.S. intelligence estimates also predict a strong possibility of war between Israel and Syria in the coming months.

Dennis Ross, the American Middle East envoy under the Clinton administration, said this weekend in an interview with Ynetnews, a leading Israeli news website, he thinks "there is a risk of war" between Israel and Syria this summer.

"Nobody has made any decision (about going to war), but the Syrians are positioning themselves for war," said Ross.

The reports of war also come amid a flurry of articles in the Arab media the past few days claiming Syria has warned its citizens residing in Lebanon to leave the country ahead of a civil war there. Israeli security officials noted the possibility of a civil war in Lebanon, and said there were strong concerns violence there could be used as an excuse for Hezbollah or Palestinian groups to attack Israel.

Syria formed new terror group?

The Baath official speaking to WND said Syria learned the advantages of using guerrilla tactics to achieve political ends from Hezbollah's war against the Jewish state last summer. He said the Committees for the Liberation of the Golan is modeling itself after Hezbollah.

The Baath official's statements follow a series of WND interviews in which Baath officials said a purported new Syrian guerrilla organization recently was formed and is ready for attacks if Israel doesn't withdraw from the Golan. According to the officials, the Syrian Committees for the Liberation of the Golan was formed last year.

In a WND interview, one Baath party official said Syria learned from Hezbollah's military campaign against Israel last summer that "fighting" is more effective than peace negotiations with regard to gaining territory."

Hezbollah claims its goal is to liberate the Shebaa Farms, a small, 12-square-mile bloc situated between Syria, Lebanon and Israel. The cease-fire resolution accepted by Israel to end its military campaign in Lebanon last July and August called for negotiations leading to Israel's relinquishing of the Shebaa Farms.

The Baath official told WND Syria's new Committees for the Liberation of the Golan Heights consists of Syrian volunteers, many from the Syrian border with Turkey and from Palestinian refugee camps near Damascus. He said Syria held registration for volunteers to join the Committees last June.

The official said attacks by the Committees may include the infiltration of Jewish communities in the Golan, rocket attacks against Israeli positions or raids of Golan-based Israeli military installations. He said all attacks would be launched from the Syrian side of the border.

WND first reported last June on the alleged formation of the Committees for the Liberation of the Golan.

One month later, a man identified as the leader of the Committees gave an interview to state-run Iranian television.

In February, a fax sent to news agencies signed by the Committees claimed the group was holding Guy Hever, an Israeli soldier missing since 1991. Hever disappeared in the Golan Heights near the Syrian border.

Israel is taking the claims of formation of the Committees information seriously. Amos Yadlin, head of the IDF's intelligence branch, told the Knesset in October Syria is indeed in the early stages of forming a Hezbollah-like group.
