In the news:

First up today - a brief video worth watching:

Video: Israel/Hamas - The Gaza War

It is worth reading the caveats below as well:

Hamas is one of the biggest obstacles to peace between Israel and the "Palestinians." While this video portrays that, it also makes like there could be peace without Hamas in the picture, cut and dry.
At JPR most of us believe the problem runs much deeper.

The "Moderate" Fatah party names streets and parks after martyrs who killed innocent Israeli civilians. The PA has indoctrinated their children with anti-Israel teachings. Palestinian schools teach that there is no Israel and that Jews come from apes, and that there is no greater accomplishment then to die a shahid, a martyr for "Palestine," killing as many Jews as they can on the way out!

Not to take away from this very well edited video and the facts it portrays... they just stop way short and give the Muslims in Israel more credit than they deserve. They do not want peace. They want Israel piece by piece.


More sightings of massive numbers of dead fish appearing. What is causing this?

Mass of Dead Fish Found in N. China City

Dead Fish Washing Up On Shores of North Falmouth, Mass


What is killing sportfish off the coast of North Falmouth?

"We don’t know. That’s the answer," said George R. Hampson of North Falmouth, who first brought the issue to the town’s attention.

Over the past few weeks, the Falmouth Natural Resources Department and the Massachusetts Division of Marine Fisheries (DMF) have received reports of dead bluefish, striped bass, and scup floating in the waters of Buzzards Bay. R. Charles Martinsen III, assistant director of the Natural Resources Department, said dead fish have also washed ashore in the New Silver Beach area, as far south as Stony Beach in Woods Hole, "and we’ve also had a handful of reports from Bourne."

"They’ve shown up in various stages of decomposition," he said, "and with no obvious cause of mortality."


Mr Soros back in the news:

Soros-Funded Media Toe Liberal Line in Debt Coverage

It is interesting that Mr Soros is calling for the exact measures that would destroy the United States. This can't be an accident.

Forget the House proposal of Cut Cap and Balance. Further spending cuts aren't even given the time of day among top Soros-funded news sites, unless they are being criticized. Increased taxes are the only option in their world.

Democracy Now!, part of the Soros-funded Media Consortium, called Congress's plan to reduce spending ''a declaration of war on the poor.'' Alternet, an unhinged liberal blog under the Media consortium umbrella, blamed conservatives for ''stoking economic hysteria to force catastrophic cuts.''

The Center for Public Integrity's iwatch news even called for more financial regulations to fix the problem. The center received $3.7 million from Soros. Think Progress manages to top this by criticizing local news broadcast from across the country for not blaming the downgrade on the failure to increase revenue.


The story below is important because it describes just one more aspect in the loss of freedom and movement towards a police state:

Assault by TSA

Last week, at Reagan National Airport I was chosen in line to be screened by the naked scanner. I knew that this technology had been rushed to market and had not been properly tested for the amount of radiation exposure and its concentration in skin, which increases the risk of cancer.

A couple of burka-clad passengers were waved through from the line behind me; nobody touched them or x-rayed them. Here I was, waiting to be sexually touched and violated in front of dozens of people. I did not want to go to a private room, I was afraid for my safety.

We teach our children not to talk to strangers, much less allow strangers to touch them in such invasive, pedophilic ways. By the time my TSA tormentor finished, I was in tears, I never felt more utterly violated except under communism. I felt stripped of my dignity, my being, my soul.

What happened to our free country? Why are we allowing ourselves to be treated like cattle in order to bring us into quicker submission to a totalitarian society? What happened to the American spirit of freedom, independence, and innocent until proven guilty? Why must we submit our dignity to TSA?


Below is a deeper look at the riots occurring in Europe and the UK

A Nation of What

Below is the first comment and the closing statement from this article:

The London riots are yet another episode in the slow disintegration of Europe.

The final irony of it all is that the attempt to leapfrog nations and cultures to a transcendent global form of social organization—instead led back to primitive savagery. Globalism empowered the gang and multiculturalism turned modern nation states into tribal enclaves. That is what the mobs are really about. The raider has turned. The tribals are back. And native Europeans are the Romans watching the barbarians come through the gates.


Class Warfare Erupts Into Just Plain Warfare

Lately it seems the only thing more sobering than America's creeping decline is Europe's rapid decline. The riots in London put a painfully fine point on the dark future that awaits us. It is true that Greece, Spain, Portugal, and Italy show us the grim numerical realities of unlimited government, but all those nations were past their prime before the American Founding.


What about the U.S.? Are riots coming to our shores? If so, is there a plan in place?

Corporate Media Puzzled by U.S. Martial Law Plans

Back in late 2010, the Army Corps of Engineers inadvertently posted information about Northcom’s CONPLAN 3502, included within information about a FEMA-simulated earthquake drill called National Level Exercise 2011.

The documents reveal how a secret Pentagon Civil Disturbance Operations plan calls for military-operated detention and search operations within the United States. It is mentioned in a Defense Support of Civil Authorities (DSCA) Handbook that was prepared by the Army’s Joint Test and Evaluation Command. It was also mentioned by General Victor E. Renuart, Northcom commander, in testimony before the House Armed Services Committee’s subcommittee on Terrorism and Unconventional Threats and Capabilities on March 5, 2008.

According to National Journal‘s White House correspondent Marc Ambinder the U.S. already has a game plan in place. “If what happened in London ever happened in the US, the military has plans — CONPLAN 3501 and 3502 — to suppress the ‘insurrection,’ hetweeted.

Following the riots of the 1960s, the U.S. Army and National Guard devised Operation Garden Plot.Infowars.com reported the posting of several declassified documents detailing on Operation Garden Plot back in 2009.

Annex A, section B of Operation Garden Plot defines tax protesters, militia groups, religious cults, and anti-government activists as “Disruptive Elements.”

Garden Plot is a sub program of Rex 84, short for Readiness Exercise 1984, that established an undisclosed number of concentration camps in America for the internment of dissidents and other elements considered enemies of the state. It was first revealed during the Iran-Contra Hearings in 1987, and subsequently reported upon by the Miami Herald on July 5, 1987, so it is not a conspiracy theory.

Come the economic riots in America, they will once again be talking about CONPLAN 3502 and will be asking questions about Operation Garden Plot, REX 84, and any number of other operational martial law plans waiting to be activated.


And below we see yet another article on the concerns over this coming September:

IDF concerned UN vote on Palestinian state may lead to tensions with Syria

The Israel Defense Forces is readying for possible engagement with the Syrian military in September, should the latter involve itself in new attempts by Palestinians in Syria to storm the border with the Golan Heights in connection with a UN vote on recognizing a Palestinian state.

The IDF acknowledges it may be necessary to deal with Syrian military intervention in such a scenario, which could occur if Syria tried to deflect world attention from the ongoing demonstrations in that country - and their bloody suppression - by creating an incident on the border


And the last bit of interesting news today:

Increasingly Powerful Solar Storms Could Disrupt Technology on earth

Power grids, GPS systems and satellites could be among the technologies affected by surges of energy released by the sun's swelling magnetic field, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).

There are multiple possible effects. Systems like GPS that rely on transmitters communicating with satellites could be disrupted by disturbances in the ionosphere, a layer of charged particles that lies between the earth's surface and the satellites' orbits. Satellites could also be slowed or thrown off course, something that Kunches pointed out would be a concern not just for people trying to navigate with their GPS' but for the defense industry's array of surveillance satellites.

Magnetic storms have caused electrical blackouts in the past. Those responsible for operating power grids will be on alert, prepared to take measures like postponing maintenance or keeping the entire grid operational so a single unit is not overwhelmed by a surging current.

Looks like there may be civil unrest in the US on 17 September. There is a Facebook page for the Day of Rage and they want to target Wall St, DC and state capitals. Looks to be a group of muslims that will participate in this as well. I really hope this doesn't come to fruition.

On Twitter: #USDOR, #occupywallstreet, #revolution
On Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/pages/US-Day-of-Rage/199185230105826

In these perilous times, remember what Christ told us in Matthew 10:16 (NKJV):
“Behold, I send you out as sheep in the midst of wolves. Therefore be wise as serpents and harmless as doves.

Also, Larry Klayman, founder of Judicial Watch and Freedom Watch, is inviting Americans to participate in Assault on Washington on 17 August. He wants Americans "to make it known to our nation's politicians and so called leaders that their days are over and that they should resign or face other strong peaceful action by "We the People".

Hello Scott and gearedup2go

What hs happened in the UK has been through the use of social sites Twitter and Facebook. Also 'Blackberry'?

The talk is that authorites may find a way to clamp down on their use to stir up strife. It may be that this will affect these sites 'across the board'. It may be what 'they' have been waiting for to bring in control to the web which will also affect Christian sites?

Sue, I know that you guys across the pond have had a tough time of it. I am so sorry and y'all are in my prayers. You are probably right about the authorities controlling the Internet. It would be a good excuse to shut down the sites of those "wild and wooly" Christians. :)

I'm sure it is freightening to see a family bow to give thanks to God at meal time and mortifying to see folks leave church carrying their Bibles.

What in tarnation is the world coming too!?!? Scarry stuff there folks...cover up your children's eyes...

Jec said...

I briefly got a glimse of a news bite re: facial recognition being implemented..........UK? Something to do with the up coming Olumpics in 2012? I'm sorry, I should have waited for a news article, but caught it in an elevator somewhere? Did anyone else hear this? The old saying "don't let a good crises go to waste" came to mind. WhAt perfect timing to implement some control measures for the masses!

Scott said...

Sue
One of these days, assuming we're not already gone, I believe we'll wake up and be unable to access any Christian sites. Probably under some anti-terrorism act or something more vague. But if it happens, it won't surprise me in the least.

Scott said...

Jec - I've seen several articles which discuss facial recognition scanning, but I don't recall the details -- but there has definitely been news to support what you are talking about.

With the up coming FEMA and re-education camps being at an all time low occupancy rate, will I be able to put in for a possible corner unit with a window? Can I get a flat screen tv, Internet service with play station too along with my choice of computer?

Jec said...

Here is the facial recognition article I saw earlier:

Facial recognition in use after London riots

http://news.yahoo.com/apnewsbreak-facial-recognition-riots-134919385.html

Jec said...

Adding to the FEMA camp situation and the joking set aside, Christ taught in Matthew 24:9-13:

   9 “Then you will be handed over to be persecuted and put to death, and you will be hated by all nations because of me. 10 At that time many will turn away from the faith and will betray and hate each other, 11 and many false prophets will appear and deceive many people. 12 Because of the increase of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold, 13 but the one who stands firm to the end will be saved.

To me, it looks like we are living in the above verses right now. People(believers and non-believers) have no idea what is coming and everyday it seems like it is getting closer and closer to our shores in America. We must all prepare our hearts and not let the roster crow even once. When they begin separating us(shutting down Christian web sites), then know its coming. Now is the time to prepare, and although at times it is so difficult, Christ told us to stand firm and endure it. Praying for all here and everywhere to be strengthened..........

Good Morning All~

I hope this day finds everyone doing the best they can under all of lives pressures.

I was digesting many of the posts lately which are great in nature. In a most recent post from Sue and Scott they are both equally correct IMHO. See, I am seeing and feeling the problem is greater than the human perspective. I don't know how the NHS works though I have had a friend or two who is on a general system in Canada and the level of frustration that is building there just to get treated has to be pushing them over the top of what would be civil manners. I use that as just one example of daily heightened agitations, frustrations, self entitlement, anger, despair and for some leading to taking matters into their own hands. Right, wrong or indifferent.

Then we look at where Sue is, hard working people, on a national system (I believe that is what you are saying) because that is their system and these youths are using these times to have all of the above attributes but applying them for different motives, which has nothing to do with their system per say as it does the heart of the people.

As we look at our system here in the U.S. who has a President pushing for NHC changes, trying to head us into a more centralized approach for all just on that topic alone-- has its risks associated with it that can lead to the same risings in feelings as Canada. (not choosing sides, but using an example of how we are slowly getting minimized in daily choices)

It sickens me when someone like me who has had years of ongoing medical, surgical needs, and will always need them had to take a huge 3-ring binder full of medical records and wait a year and stand before a judge not able to stand at times to get approved for disability. On the flip side we have many deadbeats, and I have to use that word because they choose to use the system along with adding their family members to this behavior and lifestyle as an avenue to stop trying and get a free check every month because they are addicted to drugs. (just one example here) No standing before a judge, bam approved, claiming a disability over drug addiction, getting a check and still for most I have seen or known of in my life still reverting back to that lifestyle that put them there.

This isn't to bash the ones who truly have a problem. I think over all this is a heart problem that requires an immediate heart check for the Nation. Now I hear the waiting list for disability approvals is 2-3 years vs. the one I had to wait for.

These kids around the world have been raised with such a disgusting sense of entitlement. They have been exposed to many things in life including media outlets daily that keep feeding that beast. I hold these families responsible for allowing these avenues to raise their kids instead of them at times. It's like a computer, garbage in - garbage out.

GG said...

(Con't)

So now we have kids and even adults around the world sensing life is a big playground without many leaders. Wanting what others have. Covetousness??? We have many restless souls that I believe are nice planting grounds for the evil one to truly start his entrance at a higher level of lawlessness so when the big day comes this seems like everyday living.

Look at how desensitized we are too much these days? Many are looking for what's next or for the next new thing to keep them distracted so they don't have to feel, deal and be real in life. Instead of turning to God they are turning to others, internet, lying, stealing, cheating and more. This is an up-rising of sorts that is escalating daily and we soon will have no choice but to live with it?

I feel Jesus' return is right around the corner. IMHO I feel he is letting things unfold as the heart checks begin. While others are scrambling here and abroad what will we do to help them see there is another way to freedom other than destruction.

Sorry so long, but I wanted to step back and share my heart on these last days. The wickedness is surmounting daily. I don't understand it either. It's heartbreaking and leaves one with a feeling of being violated. We must keep looking up and soon enough we shall be with our glorious leader, one who knows what he is doing as he always has, now and forever!!

God Bless!!

Food For Thought...

New International Version (NIV)
2 Thessalonians 2

The Man of Lawlessness

1 Concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our being gathered to him, we ask you, brothers and sisters, 2 not to become easily unsettled or alarmed by the teaching allegedly from us—whether by a prophecy or by word of mouth or by letter—asserting that the day of the Lord has already come.

3 Don’t let anyone deceive you in any way, for that day will not come until the rebellion occurs and the man of lawlessness[a] is revealed, the man doomed to destruction. 4 He will oppose and will exalt himself over everything that is called God or is worshiped, so that he sets himself up in God’s temple, proclaiming himself to be God.

5 Don’t you remember that when I was with you I used to tell you these things? 6 And now you know what is holding him back, so that he may be revealed at the proper time. 7 For the secret power of lawlessness is already at work; but the one who now holds it back will continue to do so till he is taken out of the way. 8 And then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord Jesus will overthrow with the breath of his mouth and destroy by the splendor of his coming.

9 The coming of the lawless one will be in accordance with how Satan works. He will use all sorts of displays of power through signs and wonders that serve the lie, 10 and all the ways that wickedness deceives those who are perishing. They perish because they refused to love the truth and so be saved. 11 For this reason God sends them a powerful delusion so that they will believe the lie 12 and so that all will be condemned who have not believed the truth but have delighted in wickedness.

Stand Firm

13 But we ought always to thank God for you, brothers and sisters loved by the Lord, because God chose you as firstfruits[b] to be saved through the sanctifying work of the Spirit and through belief in the truth. 14 He called you to this through our gospel, that you might share in the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.

15 So then, brothers and sisters, stand firm and hold fast to the teachings[c] we passed on to you, whether by word of mouth or by letter.

16 May our Lord Jesus Christ himself and God our Father, who loved us and by his grace gave us eternal encouragement and good hope, 17 encourage your hearts and strengthen you in every good deed and word.

TSA-why I always ask for the pat down :) what a great time to share the gospel and how all this security stuff fits right in Daniel, Rev etc. I also tell them they should have disposable rad meters om their clothing everyday to monitor their radiation risk. They send me throu after molestation much faster than your average joe. LOL
I wonder why no one has sued the govt yet for discrimination since muslim women arent required due to their religon to be touched. HMMMF. I wish I was an attorney!
JEC-Gee thanks for reminding me about FEMA etc. NO corner room for us. I'm hoping the horn blows before but if not...endure til the end right! Actually if we have to go to camp, I hope the day they decide to "bake" us is the exact moment the Shofar blows. Imagine trying to explain that to your commanding officer! What a witness!
I'm afraid we are too far gone as a nation at this point to stop the train. Sold out by those who choose mammom over goodness, sadly enough mostly sold out by those elected officials professing Christ. Too bad the sleeping church has had so little discernment. On the other hand....WE STILL HAVE JESUS! and the prayers of a righteous man avails much!
I love you all so much. Keep praying. I can't quote verse as well as most of you but it is written in my heart. I'm so glad you guys can quote so well. Uplifts my spirit to read it daily!
I think Stephen may be right. Not about the silver, gold, or rapture timing but about the stock market crash, war in sept deal. Maybe even the euro ;)
Sorry so disorganized but I have very little time or chance to use a computer. please bear with me...I know it won't be long til we can't communicate this way with each other.
MARANATHA!!!!!!!

GG said...

Dear Ally~

May God continue to bless and protect you daily as you walk among many. My heart and soul is thinking of you all the time :) If you have to leap to camp FEMA just take your precious life line - the bible with you. Witness among many during this time. As for knowing scripture, I am weak in that area too. I pray each time and let the HS tell me the topic and then I go and search scripture and deliver the message that he sees fit. Your doing just fine my dear. Have a safe weekend.

God Bless!!
