DISTURBING: CBS AFFILIATE ACCIDENTALLY RUNS KHYRON DATED NOV 6 DECLARING OBAMA WINNER OF 2012 ELECTION 43/40, WITH 40,237,966 VOTES TO 38,116,216 VOTES
The 2012 presidential election is still more than two weeks away, but on Friday a CBS News affiliate in Arizona called the race for President Barack Obama.For 17 seconds, Phoenix, Arizona CBS News affiliate KPHO ran a lower third graphic that showed that Obama had won the Nov. 6 election over Gov. Mitt Romney with 99% of the precincts reporting.
The lower third graphic appeared around 3:30 p.m. on Oct. 19, during an episode of “The People’s Court.”The CBS News graphic showed Obama winning the election with 43 percent of the vote nationwide to Romney’s 40 percent or 40,237,966 votes to 38,116,216. It is unclear who garnered the other 17 percent in the fictional election results.

“We shall make the Islamic civilization proud on the world stage.”
By Reza Kahlili
Iran’s supreme leader, for the first time, is telling his nation that it must prepare for war and “the end of times” as it continues to develop nuclear weapons.
State-owned media outlets, in a coordinated effort, all ran a similar story Friday highlighting Ayatollah Ali Khamenei’s message on the coming of the last Islamic messiah.
Until now, the Iranian media would mostly quote clerics from seminaries on the issue of the last Islamic messiah to avoid the regime being labeled messianic. However, the wide publication of Khamenei’s statements on a need to prepare for the end of times as it confronts the West over its illicit nuclear program is alarming to Western leaders.
“The issue of Imam Mahdi is of utmost importance, and his reappearance has been clearly stated in our holy religion of Islam,” Khamenei said. We must study and remind ourselves of the end of times and Imam Mahdi’s era. … We must prepare the environment for the coming so that the great leader will come.”
Shiite theology holds that great wars must engulf the Earth, during which one-third of the world’s population will die in the fighting and another third from hunger, lawlessness and havoc. Israel is to be destroyed, and only then will the 12th imam, Mahdi, reappear and kill all the infidels, raising the flag of Islam in all corners of the world.
Under the guidance of Khamenei, several centers have been established in Iran on research and information on the coming of Mahdi, and a conference is held annually on Mahdiism.
“Today we have a duty to prepare for the coming. … If we are the soldiers of the 12th imam, then we must be ready to fight,” Khamenei said.
“With the guidance of Allah and His invisible help, we shall make the Islamic civilization proud on the world stage. … This is our destiny. … The youth, the faithful must prepare themselves for this great move.”
Referring to the Quran, Khamenei said the coming has been promised by Allah. “There will come a time when all the oppressive powers of the world will be destroyed and humanity will be enlightened in the era of Imam Mahdi.”
As reported recently, the regime has distributed the booklet “The Last Six Months” among its military forces in preparation for the coming and its confrontation with the West. The material admonishes the Revolutionary Guards and the Basij paramilitary forces that they must be prepared to do their duties during the expected war.
The Revolutionary Guards’ media outlet, Mashregh, on Sunday warned Israel and America that they will have to guess as to what type of warhead the Iranian missiles will be carrying when targeting them.
In its lengthy piece, Mashregh discussed Iranian missile capability and the devastation it can wreak on potential enemies. Referring to U.S. military bases in the region, it said that in recent war games, ballistic missiles with cluster warheads destroyed targets similar to air bases and fighter craft hiding under hangers.
The piece boasts that the two-stage solid-fuel Sejil missile can pierce through Israel’s missile defense system and has had “the Zionists losing sleep.”
After a decade of negotiation with Iran, the West has yet to make any inroads in stopping the regime’s illicit nuclear program.
The latest report by the International Atomic Energy Agency indicated Iran continues to enrich uranium at both the Natanz and Fordow facilities and now has enough nuclear material for at least five nuclear weapons. The regime has denied an IAEA request for inspection of a military facility where it is believed Iran conducted secret experiments of an implosion-type nuclear weapon.
While a majority of Iranians oppose the mullahs’ brutal regime, Western sanctions have not curtailed its pursuit of nuclear weapons, which not only could lead to the collapse of the global economy but the killing of tens of millions of innocent civilians, including those in Iran.
Reza Kahlili translated this Iranian video about Islamic prophecies of a coming messiah and the destruction of Israel:
Reza Kahlili is a pseudonym for a former CIA operative in Iran’s Revolutionary Guards and the author of the award-winning book, A Time to Betray. He is a senior Fellow with EMPact America, a member of the Task Force on National and Homeland Security and teaches at the U.S. Department of Defense’s Joint Counterintelligence Training Academy (JCITA).

By Pamela Rae Schuffert presenting investigative journalism from a Biblical Christian perspective
“The Obama Administration is reportedly giving away Wrangell, Bennett, Jeannette and Henrietta islands in Alaska to Russia. The Federal government drew the line to put these seven Alaskan islands on the Russian side….”
Many Americans have quickly drawn the conclusion that OIL INTERESTS are the PRIMARY REASON. However, based upon prior research, I would like to suggest there are even darker reasons BEHIND this give-away of these Alaska islands. Especially when it appears that martial law is so very near in North America.
As I write this intriguing article, I am living literally here ON THE COAST OF ALASKA. I have been here helping a friend since December 2011. No one here but God knows about the hidden prayers I am compelled to pray over the state of Alaska, America’s FUTURE SIBERIAN-TYPE GULAG STATE. Alaska is filled with detention camp facilities and closed military bases like Fort Greeley that can also be used similarly, including America’s largest known detention facility reportedly able to hold up to one million hapless Americans or more, under martial law.
This huge detention facility flies joint American and RUSSIAN flags…and Russian military advisers operate this gulag…uh, I mean detention camp. Just like ruthless Russian military have ALWAYS operated Russia’s infamous Siberian gulag detention camp system for decades. Just like American military also run infamous GITMO in Guantanamo Bay, or Abu Ghraib in Iraq.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abu_Ghraib_torture_and_prisoner_abuse
MILITARY AND DETENTION CAMPS (with sordid abuses of prisoners) always seem to go together…kinda like a macabre version of “eggs n’ bacon” or “burgers and fries”combinations: one just doesn’t seem complete without the other.
Some years ago, I was a guest on Lenny Bloom’s “CLOAK AND DAGGER” broadcast, then out of Toronto, Canada, with his co-host Sherman Skolnick.
As they interviewed me about my in-depth investigative journalism exposing the New World Order gulag agenda for Canada, Sherman Skolnick interrupted me to insert some startling information:”Did you know that, even as we are speaking, RUSSIAN MILITARY UNDER SECRET TREATY WITH THE U.S GOVERNMENT are building DETENTION CAMPS FOR AMERICANS ON ISLANDS OFF THE COAST OF ALASKA????”
No, I didn’t…but I did know through a previous trip to investigate the NWO agenda in Alaska, that it was destined to become AMERICA’S FUTURE “GULAG STATE.” The detention camps and closed bases are HERE. The U.N/FEMA prisoner boxcars with shackles are HERE. Foreign troops are HERE. A joint American/Russian military tunnel beneath the Bering Straits (using military nuclear boring machinery) is HERE. Detention camps for Americans off Alaska’s coast are HERE.
Based on years of researching the NWO agenda for America, and repeatedly uncovering Russia’s secret involvement at various times, I personally believe that this island give-away may be tied in more with the Russian role in detention camps for Americans under martial law…perhaps Alaska’s versions of “Alcatraz” prison to detain America’s most determined “NWO RESISTER” freedom fighters under MARTIAL LAW.
Although at that time of our broadcast in 2004, Skolnick alluded to the Aleutian Islands as where they were secretly building the detention camps, ANY islands with appropriate terrain can be used for such purposes. While OIL and natural resources may indeed be a motivational part of this Obama Alaska island give-away to PUTIN, I would like to suggest that there may be darker underlying reasons that neither Obama or Putin dare mention to the American people.
Keep a watchful eye on Alaska, the future “GULAG STATE.”

Robots that ‘bleed’ like Arnold Schwarzenegger’s Terminator have come one step closer to reality.
Scientists have created a plastic ‘skin’ that oozes red blood when cut.
It can also ‘heal’ itself, building tiny molecular bridges inside in response to damage.
The red ‘blood’ might sound like a pointless Halloween novelty – but the idea is that the ‘skin’ can warn engineers that a structure such as an aicraft wing has been damaged.
The material could provide self-healing surfaces for a multitude of products ranging from mobile phones and laptops to cars, say researchers.
When cut, the plastic turns from clear to red along the line of the damage, mimicking what happens to skin.
It reacts to ordinary light, or changes in temperature or acidity, by mending broken molecular ‘bridges’ to heal itself.
U.S. scientists told how they created the material at the American Chemical Society’s annual meeting in San Diego, California.
Lead researcher Professor Marek Urban, from the University of Southern Mississippi, said: ‘Mother Nature has endowed all kinds of biological systems with the ability to repair themselves.
‘Some we can see, like the skin healing and new bark forming in cuts on a tree trunk. Some are invisible, but help keep us alive and healthy, like the self-repair system that DNA uses to fix genetic damage to genes.
‘Our new plastic tries to mimic nature, issuing a red signal when damaged and then renewing itself when exposed to visible light, temperature or pH changes.’
The material could flag up damage to critical aircraft structures, said Prof Urban. A decision could then be taken whether to replace the component or ‘heal’ it with a burst of intense light.
Scratches on vehicle fenders could be repaired the same way.
Prof Urban’s team is now working on incorporating the technology into plastics that can withstand high temperatures.
Most people think of a cashless society as something that is way off in the distant future. Unfortunately, that is simply not the case. The truth is that a cashless society is much closer than most people would ever dare to imagine. To a large degree, the transition to a cashless society is being done voluntarily. Today, only 7 percent of all transactions in the United States are done with cash, and most of those transactions involve very small amounts of money. Just think about it for a moment. Where do you still use cash these days? If you buy a burger or if you purchase something at a flea market you will still use cash, but for any mid-size or large transaction the vast majority of people out there will use another form of payment. Our financial system is dramatically changing, and cash is rapidly becoming a thing of the past. We live in a digital world, and national governments and big banks are both encouraging the move away from paper currency and coins. But what would a cashless society mean for our future? Are there any dangers to such a system?
Those are very important questions, but most of the time both sides of the issue are not presented in a balanced way in the mainstream media. Instead, most mainstream news articles tend to trash cash and talk about how wonderful digital currency is.
For example, a recent CBS News article declared that soon we may not need “that raggedy dollar bill” any longer and that the “greenback may soon be a goner”….
It’s what the wallet was invented for, to carry cash. After all, there was a time when we needed cash everywhere we went, from filling stations to pay phones. Even the tooth fairy dealt only in cash.
But money isn’t just physical anymore. It’s not only the pennies in your piggy bank, or that raggedy dollar bill.
Money is also digital – it’s zeros and ones stored in a computer, prompting some economists to predict the old-fashioned greenback may soon be a goner.
“There will be a time – I don’t know when, I can’t give you a date – when physical money is just going to cease to exist,” said economist Robert Reich.
So will we see a completely cashless society in the near future?
Of course not. It would be wildly unpopular for the governments of the world to force such a system upon us all at once.
Instead, the big banks and the governments of the industrialized world are doing all they can to get us to voluntarily transition to such a system. Once 98 or 99 percent of all transactions do not involve cash, eliminating the remaining 1 or 2 percent will only seem natural.
The big banks want a cashless society because it is much more profitable for them.
The big banks earn billions of dollars in fees from debit cards and they make absolutely enormous profits from credit cards.
But when people use cash the big banks do not earn anything.
So obviously the big banks and the big credit card companies are big cheerleaders for a cashless society.
Most governments around the world are eager to transition to a cashless society as well for the following reasons….
-Cash is expensive to print, inspect, move, store and guard.
-Counterfeiting is always going to be a problem as long as paper currency exists.
-Cash if favored by criminals because it does not leave a paper trail. Eliminating cash would make it much more difficult for drug dealers, prostitutes and other criminals to do business.
-Most of all, a cashless society would give governments more control. Governments would be able to track virtually all transactions and would also be able to monitor tax compliance much more closely.
When you understand the factors listed above, it becomes easier to understand why the use of cash is increasingly becoming demonized. Governments around the world are increasingly viewing the use of cash in a negative light. In fact, according to the U.S. government paying with cash in some circumstances is now considered to be “suspicious activity” that needs to be reported to the authorities.
This disdain of cash has also grown very strong in the financial community. The following is from a recent Slate article….
David Birch, a director at Consult Hyperion, a firm specializing in electronic payments, says a shift to digital currency would cut out these hidden costs. In Birch’s ideal world, paying with cash would be viewed like drunk driving—something we do with decreasing frequency as more and more people understand the negative social consequences. “We’re trying to use industrial age money to support commerce in a post-industrial age. It just doesn’t work,” he says. “Sooner or later, the tectonic plates shift and then, very quickly, you’ll find yourself in this new environment where if you ask somebody to pay you in cash, you’ll just assume that they’re a prostitute or a Somali pirate.”
Do you see what is happening?
Simply using cash is enough to get you branded as a potential criminal these days.
Many people are going to be scared away from using cash simply because of the stigma that is becoming attached to it.
This is a trend that is not just happening in the United States. In fact, many other countries are further down the road toward a cashless society than we are.
Up in Canada, they are looking for ways to even eliminate coins so that people can use alternate forms of payment for all of their transactions….
The Royal Canadian Mint is also looking to the future with the MintChip, a new product that could become a digital replacement for coins.
In Sweden, only about 3 percent of all transactions still involve cash. The following comes from a recent Washington Post article….
In most Swedish cities, public buses don’t accept cash; tickets are prepaid or purchased with a cell phone text message. A small but growing number of businesses only take cards, and some bank offices — which make money on electronic transactions — have stopped handling cash altogether.
“There are towns where it isn’t at all possible anymore to enter a bank and use cash,” complains Curt Persson, chairman of Sweden’s National Pensioners’ Organization.
In Italy, all very large cash transactions have been banned. Previously, the limit for using cash in a transaction had been reduced to the equivalent of just a few thousand dollars. But back in December, Prime Minister Mario Monti proposed a new limit of approximately $1,300 for cash transactions.
And that is how many governments will transition to a cashless society. They will set a ceiling and then they will keep lowering it and lowering it.
But is a cashless society really secure?
Of course not.
Bank accounts can be hacked into. Credit cards and debit cards can be stolen. Identity theft all over the world is absolutely soaring.
So companies all over the planet are working feverishly to make all of these cashless systems much more secure.
In the future, it is inevitable that national governments and big financial institutions will want to have all of us transition over to using biometric identity systems in order to combat crime in the financial system.
Many of these biometric identity systems are becoming quite advanced.
For example, just check out what IBM has been developing. The following is from a recent IBM press release….
You will no longer need to create, track or remember multiple passwords for various log-ins. Imagine you will be able to walk up to an ATM machine to securely withdraw money by simply speaking your name or looking into a tiny sensor that can recognize the unique patterns in the retina of your eye. Or by doing the same, you can check your account balance on your mobile phone or tablet.
Each person has a unique biological identity and behind all that is data. Biometric data – facial definitions, retinal scans and voice files – will be composited through software to build your DNA unique online password.
Referred to as multi-factor biometrics, smarter systems will be able to use this information in real-time to make sure whenever someone is attempting to access your information, it matches your unique biometric profile and the attempt is authorized.
Are you ready for that?
It is coming.
In the future, if you do not surrender your biometric identity information, you may be locked out of the entire financial system.
Another method that can be used to make financial identification more secure is to use implantable RFID microchips.
Yes, there is a lot of resistance to this idea, but the fact is that the use of RFID chips in animals and in humans is rapidly spreading.
Some U.S. cities have already made it mandatory to implant microchips into all cats and all dogs so that they can be tracked.
All over the United States, employees are being required to carry badges that contain RFID chips, and in some instances employers are actually requiring employees to have RFID chips injected into their bodies.
Increasingly, RFID chips are being implanted in the upper arm of patients that have Alzheimer’s disease. The idea is that this helps health care providers track Alzheimer’s patients that get lost.
In some countries, microchips are now actually being embedded into school uniforms to make sure that students don’t skip school.
Can you see where all of this is headed?
Some companies are even developing RFID technologies that do not require an injection.
One company called Somark has developed chipless RFID ink that is applied directly to the skin of an animal or a human. These “RFID tattoos” are applied in about 10 seconds using micro-needles and a reusable applicator, and they can be read by an RFID reader from up to four feet away.
Would you get an “RFID tattoo” if the government or your bank asked you to?
Some people out there are actually quite excited about these new technologies.
For example, a columnist named Don Tennant wrote an article entitled “Chip Me – Please!” in which he expressed his unbridled enthusiasm for an implantable microchip which would contain all of his medical information….
“All I can say is I’d be the first person in line for an implant.”
But are there real dangers to going to a system that is entirely digital?
For example, what if a devastating EMP attack wiped out our electrical grid and most of our computers from coast to coast?
How would we continue to function?
Sadly, most people don’t think about things like that.
Our world is changing more rapidly than ever before, and we should be mindful of where these changes are taking us.
Just because our technology is advancing does not mean that our world is becoming a better place.
There are millions of Americans that want absolutely nothing to do with biometric identity systems or RFID implants.
But the mainstream media continues to declare that nothing can stop the changes that are coming. A recent CBS News article made the following statement….
“Most agree a cashless society is not only inevitable, for most of us, it’s already here.”
Yes, a cashless society is coming.
Are you ready for it?

(Author’s note: In regards to my previous post http://jimmyprophet.wordpress.com/2012/03/28/new-hate-crimes-law-to-make-true-christianity-illegal-in-america/ here is the bill proposed back in 2003,
“US Senate bill S. 933 proposed by the Illuminist Senator Edward Kennedy of Massachussetts as S. 966 in 2003 was indeed stopped in 2003 but in the summer of 2004 it was quietly inserted into a Senate defense spending bill and hidden inside a bundle of legislation. The bill just passed in the US Senate by a vote of 65 to 33 is called the: Local Law Enforcement Enhancement Act (S. 933), a pro-homosexual hate crimes bill. It now goes to the House of Representatives for final approval. This bill has also been identified as Senate bill, S. 966.”)
S 966 IS
108th CONGRESS
1st Session
S. 966
To provide Federal assistance to States and local jurisdictions to prosecute hate crimes.
IN THE SENATE OF THE UNITED STATES
May 1, 2003
Mr. KENNEDY (for himself, Mr. SPECTER, Mr. DASCHLE, Mr. SMITH, Mr. LEAHY, Ms. COLLINS, Mr. LIEBERMAN, Ms. SNOWE, Mr. WYDEN, Mr. JEFFORDS, Mr. SCHUMER, Mr. CHAFEE, Mr. AKAKA, Mr. ENSIGN, Mr. BAYH, Mr. BIDEN, Mr. BINGAMAN, Mrs. BOXER, Mr. BREAUX, Ms. CANTWELL, Mr. CARPER, Mrs. CLINTON, Mr. CORZINE, Mr. DAYTON, Mr. DODD, Mr. DORGAN, Mr. DURBIN, Mr. EDWARDS, Mrs. FEINSTEIN, Mr. GRAHAM of Florida, Mr. HARKIN, Mr. INOUYE, Mr. JOHNSON, Mr. KERRY, Ms. LANDRIEU, Mr. LEVIN, Mrs. LINCOLN, Ms. MIKULSKI, Mr. MILLER, Mrs. MURRAY, Mr. NELSON of Nebraska, Mr. NELSON of Florida, Mr. REED, Mr. REID, Mr. ROCKEFELLER, Mr. SARBANES, Ms. STABENOW, Mr. LAUTENBERG, and Mr. PRYOR) introduced the following bill; which was read twice and referred to the Committee on the Judiciary
A BILL
To provide Federal assistance to States and local jurisdictions to prosecute hate crimes.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,
This Act may be cited as the ‘Local Law Enforcement Enhancement Act of 2003’.
Congress makes the following findings:
(1) The incidence of violence motivated by the actual or perceived race, color, religion, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, or disability of the victim poses a serious national problem.
(2) Such violence disrupts the tranquility and safety of communities and is deeply divisive.
(3) State and local authorities are now and will continue to be responsible for prosecuting the overwhelming majority of violent crimes in the United States, including violent crimes motivated by bias. These authorities can carry out their responsibilities more effectively with greater Federal assistance.
(4) Existing Federal law is inadequate to address this problem.
(5) The prominent characteristic of a violent crime motivated by bias is that it devastates not just the actual victim and the family and friends of the victim, but frequently savages the community sharing the traits that caused the victim to be selected.
(6) Such violence substantially affects interstate commerce in many ways, including–
(A) by impeding the movement of members of targeted groups and forcing such members to move across State lines to escape the incidence or risk of such violence; and
(B) by preventing members of targeted groups from purchasing goods and services, obtaining or sustaining employment, or participating in other commercial activity.
(7) Perpetrators cross State lines to commit such violence.
(8) Channels, facilities, and instrumentalities of interstate commerce are used to facilitate the commission of such violence.
(9) Such violence is committed using articles that have traveled in interstate commerce.
(10) For generations, the institutions of slavery and involuntary servitude were defined by the race, color, and ancestry of those held in bondage. Slavery and involuntary servitude were enforced, both prior to and after the adoption of the 13th amendment to the Constitution of the United States, through widespread public and private violence directed at persons because of their race, color, or ancestry, or perceived race, color, or ancestry. Accordingly, eliminating racially motivated violence is an important means of eliminating, to the extent possible, the badges, incidents, and relics of slavery and involuntary servitude.
(11) Both at the time when the 13th, 14th, and 15th amendments to the Constitution of the United States were adopted, and continuing to date, members of certain religious and national origin groups were and are perceived to be distinct ‘races’. Thus, in order to eliminate, to the extent possible, the badges, incidents, and relics of slavery, it is necessary to prohibit assaults on the basis of real or perceived religions or national origins, at least to the extent such religions or national origins were regarded as races at the time of the adoption of the 13th, 14th, and 15th amendments to the Constitution of the United States.
(12) Federal jurisdiction over certain violent crimes motivated by bias enables Federal, State, and local authorities to work together as partners in the investigation and prosecution of such crimes.
(13) The problem of crimes motivated by bias is sufficiently serious, widespread, and interstate in nature as to warrant Federal assistance to States and local jurisdictions.
In this Act, the term ‘hate crime’ has the same meaning as in section 280003(a) of the Violent Crime Control and Law Enforcement Act of 1994 (28 U.S.C. 994 note).

(Basically, if an individual does NOT agree with what you are saying and offends them in a religious or other personal or moral way, then the perpetrator can be held accountable and prosecuted henceforth.
Now after signing the NDAA law with its provision allowing him to indefinitely detain citizens, and the clampdown on the freedoms of speech and of religion, etc al, the Obama Administration is clearly paving the way for the coming NWO Luciferian global totalitarian dictatorship enslavement system.

A new law has passed the US Senate and awaits US House approval that would essentially outlaw Biblically conservative, fundamental Christianity. The new law would prohibit “hate-speech” sermons and teaching that is negative towards any race, religion, sexual gender or “sexual orientation,” should a Christian, whether a layperson or an ordained minister speak out and teach against homosexuality, abortion, adultery, or any other doctrinal issues that the Federal government might decide to rule as a hate crime.
Yes, you read that correctly. America’s lawmakers are putting the final touches on a new law that would outlaw the Bible and make the historic, fundamental doctrines of Christianity a crime. No longer would a minister be able to preach or teach from the pulpit anything negative about any sexual activity or anything that would be perceived as “hateful incitement.”
This legislative move will eventually constrict all doctrines and the historic dogmas including:
#1. the central dogmatic tenet that Jesus Christ is the Son of God who died for the sins of the world.
#2. as a substitutionary atonement for which salvation from eternal damnation can be achieved.
#3. by a freely offered gift from God through faith alone.
#4. and not by human efforts.
In other words, the Christian doctrines of salvation will also eventually be ruled as a “hate crime.”
So what new law are we talking about?
US Senate bill S. 933 proposed by the Illuminist Senator Edward Kennedy of Massachussetts as S. 966 in 2003 was indeed stopped in 2003 but in the summer of 2004 it was quietly inserted into a Senate defense spending bill and hidden inside a bundle of legislation. The bill just passed in the US Senate by a vote of 65 to 33 is called the: Local Law Enforcement Enhancement Act (S. 933), a pro-homosexual hate crimes bill. It now goes to the House of Representatives for final approval. This bill has also been identified as Senate bill, S. 966
This new law, if it is enacted as it now appears will happen, will give the federal government wide powers and discretion to go after the true body of believers in Jesus Christ and at the least “persecute” Christians. Most likely it will be used as a threat to turn Churches into adopting a new Babylonian religion of quasi-Christianity that will become a 1-world religion, or at least that is the plan. We suspect that God will have something to say about this, in a judgment upon America, The Babylon.
For those churches and believers who will stand up and noisily oppose the new law by attempting to assert their right of “free speech,” such churches and individual Christians will likely find themselves under arrest and ultimately at some future point labeled a “terrorist” against society and be dispatched to concentration camps much like the Guantanamo camp for Al Qaeda terrorists. At some future point, we can expect that Christians who don’t conform and instead speak out and commit “hate-crimes” speech will be arrested and become part of the prison camp system to eventually be executed at a still later time as an enemy of the “state” or an enemy of humanity i.e. religious “terrorists.” They will make no distinction between an Al Qaeda terrorist and a conservative, fundamentalist Baptist, Pentacostal, Presbyterian, Charismatic, Non-Denominational, Indepen-dent, Lutheran – Missouri Synod, and other conservative, Protestant church groups. You may even see a few Catholics committed to the prison camps for elimination also.
Many conservative premillennial, pretribulation, conservative, Bible prophecy students and scholars have decried the claims of a few fellow biblical prophecy scholars and students who’ve argued that America is Mystery Babylon and not Iraq or the Roman Catholic Church.
The RCC or Iraq = Mystery Babylon proponents have used the argument that Mystery Babylon kills the saints and the righteous people of the Earth (see Revelation 17: 6 & 18:20, 24 & 19:2). Those who oppose the theory that the USA is Babylon try to claim that America has never done that and thus can not be the Mystery Babylon.
We would argue against such false conclusions from two strong points.
#1. We can assert that America already is and has slaughtered millions of innocent victims. The wholesale death of the American Indians by US forces from the 1700’s forward along with all of the aborted babies. The of course we assert that the US leadership (Illuminati leaders) ordered fellow Illuminist, Adolf Hitler and his “illuminated” Nazi’s to kill the Jews and create the Holocaust of World War II. In addition to that, US leaders ordered fellow IlluministJoe Stalin to purge Russia of not just Jews but also millions of Christians during the 1930’s, 40’s and 50’s. But that’s not all, these same Illuminist leaders also ordered Illuminist Mao Tse-Tung and his Red Chinese army to slaughter up to as many as 70 million innocent men, women and children, of whom many were Chinese Christians.
See the following links for verification sources from the works of Antony Sutton. You can download his books FOR FREE at the links below and read them for yourself:
Also another related article on same issues here:
Countdown to World War Three by Dr. Henry Makow.
The above are just for starters. There are other publications out there with more documented evidence that America’s leaders have the blood of millions of innocents on their hands and its been going on since the founding of the nation itself. However …
#2. There is still time in the future for more blood to be shed by America, including a wholesale slaughter of true, bible-believing Christians in actions taken in the very near future.
To dismiss America as not being Mystery Babylon (just because historians and the media do not teach or proclaim America’s guilt for a lot of innocently spilled blood of millions) doesn’t mean America is not guilty.
If America’s political, governmental and financial leaders exercised control over Hitler, Stalin, Mussolini, Japan, and Mao Tse-Tung, then America is covered with more innocent bloodshed than all other nations in human history combined. To then say that America’s hands were not covered with the innocent blood of the saints and prophets during the past 200+ years is crazy. It means that truly, once again, only America at the present moment fits all of the written character traits of Mystery Babylon Bible Prophecies.
If the Bible Prophecy scholars/students who think America cannot be Mystery Babylon can reject the facts of America’s past bloodshed then they are free to claim that the USA can’t be Mystery Babylon because America won’t kill Christians in the future. That means they’ve got to really be confident in something that they have no clue about.
We would argue to the contrary with strong, documented proof that the US has indeed done killed tens of millions of innocent people. But if someone still needs proof that the USA is capable of further bloodshed of innocent Christians then this new law will be the first eye-opening step towards further fulfillment of America’s future doom.
Yes, this new law should be a shocking “eye-opener” to those thinking America is and will remain a great Christian nation right up to the return of Jesus Christ. This couldn’t be further from the truth.
This new law will give the green light to the US to directly fulfill the Babylon prophecies. Now the US will be able to openly and directly begin at first to merely silence true Christianity before beginning the blood-letting to kill off the true believers in Jesus Christ.
Bible-believing churches will be outlawed in America and it will be sooner rather than later. The idea of proclaiming and teaching the fundamental, sound doctrines of the Bible including the very issue of salvation will become a capital crime worthy of being beheaded. This will become a world-wide law that will result in the beheading deaths of millions of Christians.
Now the question becomes, what are American Christians who read this going to do about it? If you are reading this and you are an American who is a Bible-believing Christian what are you going to do about this news? Are you spiritually, mentally, emotionally and physically prepared to suffer for His namesake and His Truth?
Are you REALLY prepared to die a martyr’s death for Him? Are you prepared to be led to a head-chopping block or a guillotine and die for your belief’s that Jesus Christ is the Son of God who died for the sins of the world and that sins are forgiven on the basis of Grace through faith alone and not by our own efforts? Are you really prepared to die for that?
One thing you can do and should do is email this article to as many friends as you can. Let them know what is about to happen. Believers in Christ need to be aware of this development coming to America. It’s just happened in Canada and in some countries in Europe but its about to now happen in America.
Time is limited for us as believers. Our window of opportunity to proclaim the truth of Jesus Christ is about to be shut for good in America. It has been shut in Canada and the windows are shutting or about to shut around the world. Now is the time to be putting on the final preparation touches for persecution and martyrdom. We cannot count on the Rapture to rescue us from this coming mess. We must not be like the Christians in China before the communists began liquidating Christians by the millions who expected Jesus to return and save them and thus were not prepared for the suffering to come. We must be prepared, emotionally, mentally and spiritually for the tortures yet to come before He Returns to rescue His church.
What are we saying? We’re saying that no matter what your view of the rapture is, you should expect and prepare to meet a martyr’s death no matter where you may live in this world. There is no guarantee that the rapture will occur before a world-wide persecution that could begin even before the fulfillment of the Tribulation.
In other words, a lot of martyrdom could come for Christians everywhere on the planet even before a Pre-tribulation rapture should or would come. There is no guarantee that Jesus returns and raptures the Church before martyrdom sets in globally? It’s happened before again and again and it looks like it is about to happen yet again, only this time, also in America.
It will take awhile for full blown martyrdom develop here in America but unless He returns first or He imple-ments the first Babylon fire-judgment on America before the rapture, it looks like that within a few months or years depending upon events, we will see Christians being locked up for their beliefs only and eventually executed for those beliefs.
It will happen sooner than we realize and when it does, we will wonder how is it that this happened so fast? People will languish in prison camps thinking about the short time prior when there was freedom of religion that permitted people to believe in the sound doctrines of the Bible.
Are you prepared? Are you ready? NOW, is the time to get ready. Steel yourself in memorized teaching of sound doctrine. Memorize scripture and especially the important scriptures for salvation and faith in God and as much of the New Testament epistles as possible. http://rpc.senate.gov/_files/CRIMEcr071503.pdf

The “Hate Crimes Amendment” to HR 4200 (Amdt. 3183), now awaiting imminent passage by Congress, means an obituary for free-speech talk radio.
Although ostensibly directed only against physical hate crimes, there is nothing stopping this legislation from gradually extending to banning verbal hate crimes.
The U.S. government now defines hate as “bias” against homosexuals. Are you, as a talk show host “biased” against the practices of homosexuals? If so, you are already viewed by the federal government, in its “anti-hate” educational programs, as “hateful.” The next step is to make your “hate,” especially on the airwaves, a crime. If the “Hate Crimes Amendment” to HR 4200 passes, which could happen at almost anytime, you soon can expect FCC restrictions outlawing “hurtful words” against not only homosexuals, but Jews, Blacks, Asians, women or any “identifiable group” the government wants to protect.
Free speech will be over.

Vatican says Israel’s existence as Jewish state has nothing to do with the Bible.
“And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed.” Genesis 12:3
DISCLAIMER: When the Vatican uses phrases such as “we Christians”, NTEB goes on record as saying that we are not part of whatever group it is they are referring to. The bible says that real Christians are to love the Jewish people and to pray for the peace of Jerusalem. NTEB whole-heartedly supports the Jewish people and the literal, visible, physical, modern-day nation of Israel.
From YNET NEWS: In a special interview with Die Tagespost last week, Latin Patriarch of Jerusalem Fouad Twal, named by Pope Benedict to represent the Vatican in the Jewish State, declared that “Israel’s existence as such has nothing to do with the Bible.” He then compared Christians’ condition in today’s Jerusalem with Jesus’ Passion: “We Christians never forget that even our Lord himself suffered and was mocked in Jerusalem.”
“We Christians cannot speak about the Promised Land for the Jewish people”, the synod’s document said. “There is no longer a chosen people. The concept of the promised land cannot be used as a base for the justification of the return of Jews to Israel and the displacement of Palestinians.”
Latin Patriarch of Jerusalem Fouad Twal, named by Pope Benedict to represent the Vatican in the Jewish State, declared that “Israel’s existence as such has nothing to do with the Bible.”
Twal’s position on Israel and the Bible has been embraced at the highest levels in the Catholic Church. The Vatican synod in 2010 declared that Israel cannot use the Biblical concept of a promised land or a chosen people.
A few days ago, Patriarch Twal responded enthusiastically to the agreement reached between Hamas and Fatah. He also denounced “the Judaization of Jerusalem” and attacked Israel for “trying to transform it into an only Hebrew-Jewish city, excluding the other faiths.” Elsewhere, Iraq’s Archbishop, Louis Sako, asked to “separate between Judaism and Zionism.” Indeed, in the most influential quarters of Christianity, Jews are still regarded as an apostate group not entitled to a sovereign state of its own.
Jesus, the Palestinian prince of hope and peace?
Backed by the Catholic clergy, for the first time in history the Palestinians asked the United Nations’ cultural body to register Bethlehem’s Church of the Nativity under the name of “Palestine.” According to Omar Awadallah, who heads the UN department in the PA Foreign Ministry,
“Jesus is the Palestinian prince of hope and peace and Christians all over the world want that church to be a World Heritage site.”
In a period when the Vatican’s anguish at the catastrophic decline of Arab Christianity should be palpable, the Catholic Church chooses to demonize Israel and to increase its collaboration with the PLO.
The confirmation comes from the intensity of high profile meetings in recent weeks and the participation of bishops not only from Arab countries, but from Europe and the United States as well.
Elimination of Jewish state has become a priority
Last January, eight Catholic bishops from Europe and North America, including UK Archbishop Patrick Kelly and French Archbishop Michel Dubost, visited Gaza. “I asked prisoners in the largest prison in Europe (in Evry) to pray for you,” Dubost told Gazans. The inference was clear: Palestinians are living in a big prison terrified by Israel. In the same period, Father Manuel Musalam, head of Gaza’s Catholics, met with Hamas leader, Mahmoud al Zahar, and declared that “Christians are not threatened by Muslims” but that everyone faces the same problem, that of Israel’s “humiliation.”
The Vatican’s criminalization of Zionism, which Arab Churches made a basic condition for Muslim-Christian rapprochement, grants the elimination of the Jewish State priority over defending the rights of their own beleaguered communities. After Arab nationalism failed to eliminate Israel, Arab Christianity and the Vatican are now building a Palestinian identity hostile to Israel and the Jews. source – YNET News
