Daily Headlines:

Fatah To Israel: Do What We Want Or Face Intifada


If Israel does not surrender all the lands liberated in the Six Day War of 1967, set up an Arab state with Jerusalem as its capital, and make significant concessions in accepting as citizens descendants of Arabs who fled Israel in 1948, a third intifada should, and must, be conducted. The call for a new “uprising of the people” against Israel was part of a the summation statement issued at the end of the two day Palestinian Revolutionary Council (PRC) general meeting held this week. The meeting was led by Palestinian Authority chief and Fatah party head Mahmoud Abbas.

The statement declares its support for Abbas' ongoing refusal to back down from positions that have proven unacceptable to Israel in the past, including demands that Israel agree in principle to accept as citizens descendants of Arabs who fled theirhomes in 1948. Abbas has also declared that he will refuse to discuss anything with Israel until all settlement activity is ended. That precondition has also been unacceptable to Israel, but in its statement, the PRC said that it supported Abbas on that as well.

The PA will also make another attempt to be recognized as a state by the United Nations this year. Last year, the PA statehood bid was thwarted after many months of intense diplomatic activity by Israel, but analysts said that the PA was less likely to back down this time, and would insist that the matter be brought before the Security Council.

The statement also expresses ongoing support for attempts to reunite Fatah and Hamas in the PA government.It also praised the election of Mohammed Morsi as President of Egypt, saying that it “indicates that Egypt is on the way to resume its major role in the Arab world."





The IDF is preparing for a “new era” on Israel's southern border, which actually is a rewind of history back to the days before the Camp David Accords. With the rise of what appears to be a hostile regime in Egypt, the IDF will be beefing up forces all along the Sinai border, and is asking the government for NIS 15 billion ($3.8 billion) for the construction of bases,installation of security equipment, and establishment of new training areas.


Analysts said that the new situation in Egypt necessitates the opening of a “fourth front” for the IDF.






A stormy two-day summit kicks off on Thursday (28 June), with EU leaders still at odds over ceding core national powers to Brussels in return for debt-pooling, as well as creating a "banking union" with central supervision and deposit guarantees.


A press conference tactically placed after this first session is set to deflect any questions on the controversial plan for the future of the EU to be debated later that evening during dinner.

European Council chief Herman Van Rompuy, who drafted the plan together with the heads of the EU commission, European Central Bank and the Eurogroup of finance ministers, will present it, with markets expecting some sort of deal on further integration, especially in the eurozone.



Robert Fisk, the Middle East correspondent for the UK’s widely-read Independent, recently showed why it is that Islamic jihadists and terrorists, including the late Osama bin Laden, strongly recommend his propaganda to Western readers.

In a recent article Fisk goes out of his way to demonize the abused Christian minorities of the Middle East for supporting those secularist leaders most likely to preserve their freedoms and dignity. For instance, after portraying the Middle East’s “old guard” in the worst possible terms, he complains that “Ahmed Shafiq, the Mubarak loyalist, has the support of the Christian Copts, and Assad has the support of the Syrian Christians. The Christians support the dictators. Not much of a line, is it?”

In Fisk’s way of thinking, Christians of Egypt and Syria are freedom-haters because they support the secularist old guard, whereas the Sharia-pushing Islamists are freedom-lovers.

“Not much of a line, is it?” — especially from someone who supposedly lives and travels in the Middle East and is deemed an authority on the region. Completely missing from his narrative iswhy Christians are supporting Shafiq and Assad: because the alternatives, the Islamists, have been making their lives a living hell.

Missing from the Islamists’ — and Fisk’s –narrative is the fact that Christians are under attack by Islamists, especially in Egypt and Syria, where Christian women and children are regularly abducted, molested, and forced to convert; where churches and monasteries are regularly attacked; where blasphemy laws imprison or kill, and calls for jizya are back — in short, where Christians are persecuted (see entries for Egypt and Syria in my monthly “Muslim Persecution of Christians” for an idea). Moreover, the ultimate goal of Fisk’s supposedly freedom-loving Islamists — the enforcement of a decidedly anti-freedom Sharia law — will naturally spell disaster for Christians, since this draconian law code emphatically condemns non-Muslim “infidels” to dhimmi status — barely tolerated, second-class “citizens” of the Islamic state.





As America watches large sections of Colorado literally burn to the ground, many are wondering why all of this is happening. There have always been wildfires, but what we are experiencing now seems very unusual. So is the number of wildfires in the United States increasing?

Right now the eyes of the nation are focused on the Waldo Canyon Fire in Colorado. It doubled in size overnight and it has consumed more than 300 homes so far. It is threatening the city of Colorado Springs, and at this point more than 35,000 people have been forced to evacuate - including the U.S. Air Force Academy. On Twitter and Facebook residents are describing what they are seeing as "the apocalypse" and as "the end of the world". But this is just the beginning of the wildfire season. We haven't even gotten to July and August yet.


But this is not the only wildfire that is raging in Colorado. Right now there are 10 wildfires burning in the state. Overall, there are 33 large wildfires currently burning in twelve U.S. states.

The truth is that this is happening because we are seeing exceptionally dry conditions throughout the western half of the United States. In fact, according to the U.S. National Academy of Sciences, the U.S. interior west is now the driest that it has been in 500 years.

Earlier this year I wrote an article that postulated that we could actually see dust bowl conditions return to the middle of the United States. Many readers were skeptical of that article.

But as much of the western United States continues to experience bone dry conditions and continues to be ravaged by wildfires, perhaps more people will understand how bad things are really getting in the interior west.






Fire crews fought to save the U.S. Air Force Academy and residents begged for information on the fate of their homes Wednesday after a night of terror sent thousands of people fleeing a raging Colorado Springs wildfire.

More than 30,000 have been displaced by the fire, including thousands who frantically packed up belongings Tuesday night after it barreled into neighborhoods in the foothills west and north of Colorado's second-largest city. With flames looming overhead, they clogged roads shrouded in smoke and flying embers, their fear punctuated by explosions of bright orange flame that signaled yet another house had been claimed.

Supreme Court decision...as the DOW tanks! Gee I wonder why! LORD PLEASE COME QUICKLY!!! Evil abounds!

WVBORN56 said...

Obamacare saved by Judge Roberts. Are all these guys sell outs? So dissapointed this morning! sigh...Help me Jesus to keep my eyes on you and not on the stuff of this evil world. I agree with Mrs. C...come Lord Jesus!

I live in Iowa and if we dont get rain soon the corn prices will skyrocket and beef and pork may be harder to afford by the end of the year

Mrs.C said...

Preparation at all possible is so important. Should any number of things occur, pork and beef skyrocketing wont be the only items. Picture wheel barrels of cash that were need for purchases in hyper inflation stuck places like Germany in the early 20's I think it was, and Zimbabwe. Or like in some nations, they just simply say one morning, your current cash is worthless, including funds in your bank accounts. They instruct their citizens to return any cash they have to their banks within a certain time, then pay them in new currency, pennies on the dollar.
A different recent example, is with the manufacturer of Excedrin, etc. They had a recall in January of this year, and had to shut down their factory that produces these products. Desperate folks are trying to find these products anywhere, and it has now been 6 months since the products were pulled from store shelves.
You can MAYBE buy some Excedrin for example, on ebay. For about 100 or less, Excedrin tablets on Ebay, it will cost AROUND 100.00 DOLLARS! Just a taste of what could come with hyper inflation.
With this evil, disgusting, ac-wanna be imposter in chief of this country, it is his goal to take this great nation down! With assistance from his winged minions, there is nothing they wont do!
As the Lord tarries, we have to be prepared as best we can. I cant help but be reminded of Hal Lindsey's sermon one morning over 20 years ago, when he said to the congregation with great sadness, how much he loved this great nation. He then continued and said that something will indeed happen to the United States, that will cause them to no longer be a super power. He shared that he felt that perhaps, in the future, Germany would rise as the financial super power of the world, and that the U.S. economy would collapse. The U.S. he noted, is no where in the Later Days Prophecies, no where. This he said, tells us that something will indeed happen to bring the U.S. down...
oblamer was the game changer...first being elected by folks blind to his evil...then his releasing of all kinds of evil on this nation...not to mention what he has done to our allies...yes he was the game changer...its so painful to watch, but no matter what comes...God uses ALL things to work for His Plan, and that His Plan for these Last Days is wrapping up!

Mrs.C said...

Hi Brother WV, :)
I know...I cant EVEN process Judge Roberts action...just cant even process it! It makes NO sense what so ever! Maybe, he felt that to get the Court to vote it as a "tax", a "tax" could be repealed by Congress?
Thank You Father for being with us always...thank You Father that Your soon to send Your Precious Son to come get His Bride!

God Bless!

GG said...

Hi Mrs. C~

It is so true about being prepared. No longer can we just sit back and hope that we will be lifted right out of here without any feelings of discomfort around us.

I read every day about these young kids being shot in Chicago and it just keeps rising to the surface. The gangs do not care, they want each other at whatever cost.

To read about face eating latley as a form of attacks in a few places, what is that? A reason to turn to canobolism in the years ahead when times turn tough?

To see people taking advantage of the 'stand your ground' law in different states, is that too another avenue to do the evil one's work in the long run?

I am so grateful for the love of Jesus to come take us home to a better place. I am praying hard that those left behind wake up and see that the next level will be about survival of the fittest.

Hang in there everyone! Soon enough we shall be home and no longer a visitor in a foreign land.

God Bless!!

Dear Anonymous:
I live in Chicago. I haven't seen it (this dry)like this since 1988. I wish I had a crystal ball to see what the future holds. Today in Chicago it's over 100!

GG said...

Hi Gary~

You are so right. I live in the suburbs and the kids are staying cool inside :)
These lawns look like they are going to ignite since they are so crisp or shrivel up like the tumble weeds of the west - ha ha.

Perhaps my father's dream over 35 years ago of the black president and the map of the united states and the red flames dotted all across the us were fires and not nuke bombs. I'll have to ask my brother.

Ally, I've been praying for you & your daughter and all on this blog.

Any updates on Syria?

Blessings

Ally said...

Oh Mrs. C-my heart just broke when I read what you said about Hal. I think a lot of these guys have known for a long time exactly whats coming. And they probably spent years in fervent prayer over it too. I know what the Lord showed me and it was unbelivibly horrendous. How can someone even share rhat kind of info? Either people dont believe you or they do and they become terrified themselves.
Im trying to wait on the Holy Ghost to tell me when to say what to whom. Ive learned the hard way about getting ahead of God, think Moses killing the egyption, he learned it the hard way too. And I am certainly no Moses! Lol
The next birth pain is going to put a crack in the egg. The time around the 9th of Av/Olympics is going to heat up though remember Gods is in control. I think the elections will be the last thing we will be worrying about when November comes.
Guys, when all this stuff hits, its going to be so fast, so quick, people won't even wont even have time to respond or to figure out what is up.
I have come to the awareness that in this late hour, it is our relationship with Christ and him alone that is the inly thung that matters! (of course, it has always been that, but the distractions of this world pull us away) The distractions that are coming soon we wont want to look at, our gaze will be averted
Just remember, keep your eyes on him only!!! It is the only way to not sink! I think many who have scoffed will turn to you and say what must I do to be saved.
Im praying now we will be able to cintinue on here in fellowship until the last possible moment!
Also whatcht that video floating around about the Christians getting hassled in dearborn, mi. by the muslim kids. The police part especially towards the end. Just interesting.
Love you! Just really stepping back and looking at the reality of things today. Not good at all down here on earth what is coming. Thank God, this is not my home!
Maranatha!

Alice said...

Oh yes, Ally! Thank God this is NOT my home!

Roberts seems to be a turncoat.

GG and Gary, I live waaaay down-state from you and we're supposed to reach 107 today. Unbelievable!

I read "The Harbinger" earlier this year. Isaiah 9:10 was the beginning of judgement. Later in Isaiah 9 it says:

"17 Therefore the LORD shall have no joy in their young men, neither shall have mercy on their fatherless and widows: for every one is an hypocrite and an evildoer, and every mouth speaketh folly. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still. 18 For wickedness burneth as the fire: it shall devour the briers and thorns, and shall kindle in the thickets of the forest, and they shall mount up like the lifting up of smoke. 19 Through the wrath of the LORD of hosts is the land darkened, and the people shall be as the fuel of the fire: no man shall spare his brother."


It just makes me wonder...

Dutch Treat said...

Like the rest of you, I was absolutely shocked, not so much by the decision but by who voted for it. I,m so thankful that we have the Rock Solid foundation of God's word to stand on, which never fails. Without it I would go absolutely bonkers. But then his word says that in the end-times it would be like this. He also promised us a glorious ending which will last an eternity. As Mrs. C alluded to Hal Lindsey, Grant Jeffrey and others have been saying for years that in the end, America will become a third rate power and will have no role in end-time prophecy. Getting to the weather, I pray for all of you in Colorado, Florida, and the mid-west who have to put up with this tremendous heat. Yet for some reason they always seem to make jokes about our weather here in Buffalo. While our winters can be harsh sometimes, the summers here are just unbeatable with mild temperatures and usually low humidity; and whatever humidity we get rarely sticks around for any great length of time due to the cool air of Canada and Lake Erie. To sum it up, just remember the words of Jesus: When you see these things begin to happen, look up. For your redemption is nigh. Ally, I hope and pray that you are doing better.

Oh a positive note, I can water my garden and I have not had to cut grass in 3 weeks! :)

Making some progress on surgery plans. I had all my test records sent to ECU on Monday and waiting to hear back from them and the insurance carrier. I am out of network so I will have to pay more but the minimal invasive procedure is worth it to me. Thanks for your continued prayers!

That is great news. I bet you had hoped we were in these new bodies by now :) Just know I am thinking of you and praying from here.

I knew deep down that the healthcare would be passed by the SC. As much as most don't want it. It is like Obama has a hold on these people. They do as he wants them to do. It's strange to me.

WV i was hoping you woulg go that route ;)
good luck brother

Anonymous said...

Thank you Scott for your blog!
I have been reading through it for a while now and thought I should take a little time to comment. The world we live in now is on the brink, I wouldn’t even know where to begin as to how fast the day of Christ’s return is approaching. We as Christians need to be constantly in prayer for this world and for the ‘fullness of the Gentiles to be brought in’. The biggest problem in our country right now is the spiritual deception and the need for hearts to turn to the Lord Jesus.
Anyhow Scott, I’m praying for you and for the needs of those who are also following your comments. I live way out west in California and see first-hand some of the wickedness in this country. Also, please be in prayer for my family, that is where satan has been attacking lately. I know many Christians who are going through many different trials, but it seems like families are being targeted especially.
Rom 8:31......... "If God be for us, who can be against us?

mary said...

Hi Rick,
you have come to a good place.I will pray for you and your family.Also, very appropriate Bible verse. We need to keep reminding ourselves of that verse. God bless, mary

Scott said...

Rick

Great points - which I was planning to make but you beat me to it

We should be celebrating because this all means we're closer to a one world totalitarian government and that brings us closer to the tribulation and that brings us closer to the gathering up!

Keep your eyes on THE PRIZE and don't be diverted by what man does......

JESUS OVERCAME THIS WORLD AND BECAUSE OF THAT WE WILL TOO --- SOON !

Wow, alot of comments >>>>

AND YET, stocks were BULLED way off
the lows, with the dow down a lousy 24 pts......many stocks actually
closed UP.......

Bulls refuse to die, and that MUST
BE RESPECTED. I find bulls very
disgusting, but what can I do ??

EWI counts now suggest a RALLY to
13,000 or higher IF 12, 800 is
taken out on the upside.

12, 400 continues to HOLD like a
rock. Bears pushed down to that
area earlier, but THEN CAME the
bull back.

I will have to assume that the
"end" that many here are waiting for will be DELAYED yet again.

I wish I could say otherwise,
but reality is reality.

Wow! The amount of news coming out now is overwhelmin. Can't even keep up with it. No sense in even trying???? Nothing even to do anymore but to trust in HIM alone! At the same time, go through the doors the Lord is leading you through. Praying for you WV. At the moment I'm up against a new ager wanting to share with her so bad the truth. Her name is Stevie....so lost it seems---pls pray. Thanks. Jec

Praying for you, WV!

I believe the Rapture of the Church will finish America off and allow evil to completely take over. We need to pray for those that are lost, even more so for our lost loved ones. The clock is nearing midnight. God Bless

Ally said...

Thank everyone for praying for my 2 lost daughters and my 3 grandkids!!!! I pray for all of you and your families!
WV-yay! Im excited for you! Please let me know when ok? You guys finally get to meet and gets some hands on praying! How is your mom holding up?

Love you all!

better get ready for a SEVERE DELAY
as far as the "end" is concerned.

EU JUST announced a bank supervisor program. Look like bulls JUST got
what they wanted. DOW FUTURES are
UP WELL OVER 100 pts on the news.

after being down only 24 on the day session.

It seems that every time the end
appears near, something always
happens to DELAY it. If one were
to think like a BULL, then I guess
the end will NEVER come.

Of course, it will.....but how
long ?? As STATED BEFORE, soon is
a relative word. very relative.

with many meanings.
