A Deadly war with Iran -- Feb. 13, 2006
If the targets included the nuclear reactor at Bushehr,
which will become fully fuelled this year, a
radioactive cloud
could spread over the Gulf. Iran's small navy, which includes
three submarines, would have to be attacked to negate threats to
vital shipping lanes in the Straits of Hormuz.
But Iran could still retaliate with suicide
speedboats, possibly leading to crippling
rises in the price of oil.

Iran breaks seals on nuclear reactors -- Jan. 14, 2006
( Ed :
Our God is so sovereign that He makes even the secular press to
declare His word. Praise God ! )
Iran has "broken the seals". The phrase
refers to the seals placed by UN nuclear inspectors on equipment
that, unsealed, enables uranium enrichment, making possible the
development of a nuclear bomb.
It has a suitably apocalyptic
ring. In the Book of Revelation, the Lamb
breaks the seven seals and earth-shattering violence ensues:
"
the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled
together
And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and
the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men
hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the
mountains".
That's what Ahmadinejad means, too. Last
September, he addressed the United Nations in a speech that
called on God to hurry up and send along his "Promised
One". This was a reference to the strong Shi'ite belief in a
Mahdi, or Hidden Messenger, who will reappear in
the world to rule it aright

China, which can defend Iran from the Americans and Europeans.

everything correctly
According to Cohens opinion, Russia does not want to

plays a role of the counter-balance for the U.S.

U.S. simulates war with Iran -- Dec. 18, 2004
The magazine said a war against Iran would be

into account al-Qaida strikes inside the United States.

How
Iran will fight back -- Dec. 16, 2004
Henceforth, any US attack on Iran will likely be
met first and foremost by missile counter-attacks
engulfing the southern Persian Gulf
states playing host to US forces, ( oil crisis ? ) as
well as any other country, eg, Azerbaijan, Iraq or Turkey,
allowing their territory or airspace to be used against Iran. The
rationale for this strategy is precisely to pre-warn Iran's
neighbors of the dire consequences, with potential debilitating
impacts on their economies for a long time, should they become
accomplices of foreign invaders of Iran.
A war with Iran would definitely require establishing
the draft in the US,
( Sen. John McCain wants women
drafted too )
without which it could not possibly protect its flanks in

A Pentagon spokesman on Friday confirmed the United States was
planning withdraw its tanks and other heavy armor from Germany in

restructure the global deployment of its forces.
Presently there are some
70,000 U.S. troops stationed in Germany.

would like to reshape the American military from its Cold War era
deployments like those in Germany to smaller, more flexible units

Participating Nations in Magog War (different
version )
Gomer = Warsaw Pact Nations of Eastern Europe
Togarmah = Armenia and Black Sea Alliance
. The alliance points
to Russia (Eze. 38:4-6). Gog does not come against Israel alone,
and these which are said to be associated with him remind us of
Russia and its former communist satellites.
Gomer refers to
"the people descended from Gomer (Ge. 10:2); they settled in
the north of the Black Sea and then spread themselves southward
and westward to the extremities of Europe" (Young). Thus
Gomer probably refers to the former East European satellites of
Russia, such as Hungary, Czechoslovakia, Romania, and Poland.
Togarmah was a son of
Gomer, son of Japheth (Ge. 10:3) and settled in Armenia (Young).
"Armenia, a former kingdom of NE Asia Minor; generally
understood to include eastern Turkey and the Armenian S.S.R.--a
constituent republic of the Trans Caucasian Soviet Union"
(Funk & Wagnalls). This refers to the southern republics of
Russia.

Hugo Chavez protege Lopez Obrador is inciting mob

Morales is trying to destabilize the Andean states. Morales,
Ortega and Obrador will no doubt be aided by military supplies
from Chavez, including large shipments of Russian-origin
Kalashnikov rifles now made under license in Venezuela
Arc
of Crisis
To put it another way, Chavez wants to create an Arc of Crisis that would extend from Bolivia to
Nicaragua to Mexico and then Cuba, the Caribbean, and Colombia.
Chavez wants to set the entire region ablaze. He also wants to
isolate and weaken Brazil, Chavez's major rival.
It is for this reason that Chavez is purchasing
25 advanced Russian fighter aircraft, Sukhoi
Su-30s. These aircraft would provide
Chavez with air superiority in the
Caribbean, to the benefit of the FARC and other terrorist groups.

21, 2004
You would never be able to win that war,"
the Cuban leader said. "Here you will not find a divided
people."
The sanctions are to take effect June 30.
The new rules by the U.S. Treasury Department's Office of Foreign
Assets Control will severely limit how often Cuban-Americans
can visit family and which relatives they can legally send money
to on the impoverished island.
Cuban-Americans who previously could visit relatives every year
will now be able to travel here once every three years. http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&cid=589&ncid=721&e=8&u=/ap/20040621/ap_on_re_la_am_ca/cuba_us_protest

Summer
Pulse 04 causes fear for Castro
Two U.S. carrier strike groups (CSGs) sailed in the
vicinity of Cuba as part of Summer Pulse 04, the Navy's first
exercise of a new operational construct that will deploy seven
CSGs around the world simultaneously, a major change
from the way carriers have been used in the past. The
goal is to create a more responsive, less predictable carrier
force that can quickly support contingency operations around the
world. A CSG typically consists of six major vessels
and 65 aircraft. Cuba sits just 90 miles from
Florida. The Cubans note that the U.S. invasion of Grenada
in 1983, supported by the carrier USS Independence,
took place without warning.

Cuba does indeed have biological warfare-- May 21-2002
The foremost expert on the controversial subject,
1992 defector to the U.S. and author of "Biohazard,"
Dr. Ken Alibek, said he suspects the Bush
administration is correct when it says Cuba is developing
deadly germ agents.
"in 1990," Alibek says,
"Biopreparat [the Soviet's key biowarfare entity] was
negotiating the sale of dual-use equipment to
Cuba."
"There are a few small differences
in producing vaccines and weapons," Alibek warns.
"But the knowledge is essentially the same."
According to Alibek, Cuba has the sophisticated fermentation vats
needed to manufacture both vaccines and pathogens.
But as to whether the Cuban biotechnology effort is more or less
a front for more sinister R & D exports, the expert wavers.
Polo Cientifico, the original
research base, has blossomed into a science cluster on the
outskirts of Havana that boasts a small city of sleek and modern
laboratories.

"The communist Chinese have now
tipped their hands for all to see," said the ranking member
of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. "They have
expanded their spreading of weapons of all types, nuclear and
otherwise, to Cuba, 90 miles off our shores."......
China had moved at least three shipments of arms to Cuba.

China delivering Arms to Cuba
"Whether it's in Cuba
or whether it's in the Panama Canal or whether it's in the South
China Sea, communist China is trying to have an iron grip on
areas that are strategically important to the security of the
United States and the western democracies," Rohrabacher said
in an interview with CNSNews.com.

Navy Ships and 10,000 US Sailors in Puerto Rico...June 13-2001
http://www.nandotimes.com/world/story/26007p-470048c.html
[It is interesting that in 98 Pakistan and Turkey both became
official Moslem nations, and that Germany has recognized Islam as
an official religion. Now Christians are being beheaded in
Pakistan and crucifixions of Christians by Islamists take place
in Egypt and Sudan. We must pray urgently for an end to the
persecution of Christians by militant Islamists.]
Daniel 7:5 tells us that the Russian Bear has "three ribs in
the mouth of it." This could mean Georgia, Armenia and Syria
when the Russian army makes its' mad dash south.
Please see www.stratfor.com/SERVICES/GIU/102999.ASP
OR..more
likely, the 3 ribs could be Lebanon, Syria and Iraq since
missiles
are sent to Iraq from Russia through that land route. See:

Syria will pay a high price for her complicity, for we read in Jeremiah 49: 23-27 of the destruction
of that ancient city, Damascus. (Also see Isaiah Chapter 17 )
WHERE
This Invasion will take place in Northern Israel, along the Golan
Border and "the mountains of Israel". Mt. Hermon
Ezekiel
39:18
"Bashan" = the Golan
SCENE TWO
In
order for Russia to carry out her successful campaign against
Israel, she must first put Israels ally and
protector out of commission. This could well mean a First Strike
(pre-emptive) aimed at the United States
(Ezek.
38: 10-12...15,16). While we are distracted from this
unprecedented event, the Soviet-Islamic Confederation will forge
forward against Israel---no bars held.

Bear H intercept
Two Russian strategic nuclear bombers flew within 37 miles
of Alaska recently in a rare probe of U.S. air defenses,
according to U.S. intelligence officials.
The Tu-95 Bear
H bombers were part of a group of four
bombers that deployed recently to the
military air base near Anadyr, a port in the northern Far East of
Russia. The bombers can carry up to 16 Kh-55
strategic cruise
missiles, which are equipped with 200-kiloton nuclear warheads.
