End of the world fears

UK - Fears of the end of the world are growing as apocalyptic imagery from the Bible has come to life in recent months, as diseases, fires and floods have ravaged the planet. The Bible's Book of Revelation sees the Earth suffer from "intense heat" and drought, a shower of deadly hailstones and disease. The extreme weather is then followed by the Apocalypse - the final judgment of man and destruction of the world by fire. Fires have been seen across Europe in recent days, as extreme temperatures scorched the continent.

End of the world: Red heifer prophecy unfolds

ISRAEL - Red heifers raised in Israel as sacrificial offerings to the Third Temple have been inspected in a secret location, stoking fears end of the world prophecy is rapidly unfolding. The red heifers form part of an elaborate plan to reclaim Jerusalem's former glory through the construction of a third Holy Temple. The efforts are being led by the Temple Institute, a religious organisation dedicated to the restoration of Judaism's holiest seat of worship. The return of the Temple plays a critical role in doomsday prophecies in Jewish and Christian prophecies alike. Many believe the Third Temple's construction will precede the arrival of the Messiah. And the sacrifice of a red heifer in the dedication of the Third Temple will supposedly facilitate these prophecies to unfold. The long-awaited update has been welcomed by Christian evangelists who believe biblical prophecy is unfolding in the Holy Land. However, according to Christian scripture, there is no way of predicting when the end of the world will unfold. Jesus Christ said in the gospels: "But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father."

 
Armed forces must be 'best-equipped in Europe,' Scholz says

GERMANY - German Chancellor Olaf Scholz has urged Europe to take on more responsibility in NATO, with Vladimir Putin aiming to make Russia an "imperial power" on the continent. German Chancellor Olaf Scholz on Friday once more stressed that Moscow's invasion of Ukraine was a turning point in European history, underlining the importance of Germany's armed forces in the new situation. He said Russian President Vladimir Putin was trying to redraw borders with the aim of making Russia an "imperial power" in Europe once more. "NATO remains responsible for the collective defence of the entire alliance with a focus on Europe. Credible deterrence remains the core element," said Scholz. "We, Europeans, must however assume significantly more responsibility within NATO." He was speaking on the second day of a two-day conference of the German armed forces that took the title "The Bundeswehr in a new era — Taking critical stock at a time of war in Europe."

 
The West against the Rest

GERMANY - Chancellor Olaf Scholz called on Germany to become the "best-equipped force in Europe." In its power struggle against Russia and China, the EU is aiming at the formation of a global bloc, seeking to comprehensively expand the Western bloc and to move against foreign powers’ “Trojan horses” at home, according to yesterday’s State of the Union Address by Commission President Ursula von der Leyen. The transatlantic bloc, which includes some Asia-Pacific nations, will thus be given the positively connoted label of “democracies.” It is to include as many African and Latin American nations as possible and juxtaposed with a non-western bloc, which will be given the negatively connoted label “autocracies.” While the EU is fostering the formation of a bloc, in the non-Western “rest” of the world – ie, three quarters of all nations – new alliances are forming, seeking a multipolar international order. Besides Russia and China, these include India Brazil and South Africa. Diverse countries such as Argentina, the United Arab Emirates and Indonesia are seeking to join BRICS or SCO (Shanghai Cooperation Organisation).

 
German arms makers jockey for position

GERMANY - Sensing a feeding frenzy, German arms makers jockey for position. German companies are jockeying for position as the government tees up massive investments meant to drastically improve the state of the armed forces. Chancellor Olaf Scholz’s February 27 proposal to ramp up defense expenditures by tens of billions of euros, spurred by Russia’s war on Ukraine, has defense officials in Berlin scrambling to identify spending opportunities that promise fast results, according to several company officials who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss internal deliberations. So hasty is the process that a key official in the Defence Ministry’s acquisition office, Vice Admiral Carsten Stawitzki, signaled to company executives that certain acquisition rules could be outright circumvented in service of quick deliveries. Companies also were put on notice that they should drop outstanding procurement disputes on the docket with the ministry in order to partake in upcoming work.

 
La Niña: World set for extreme weather event

UK - World set for extreme weather event as La Niña to spark flooding and droughts across globe. Meteorologists say that La Niña will hit in the Pacific for the third consecutive year in a 'triple dip' weather phenomenon. A rare weather phenomenon will have impacts around the world as a ‘triple dip’ La Niña has formed in the Pacific. La Niña is an oceanic and atmospheric phenomenon that is the colder counterpart of El Niño, where the sea surface temperature across the eastern equatorial part of the central Pacific Ocean is lower than normal by 3C to 5C.

The End of Cheap Food is Near as Fragile System Faces Collapse

USA - Prior to the Industrial Age ushered in by WWII, for thousands of years a person’s or family’s wealth was not measured by how much money one had in a bank account, but by how much real assets they owned, primarily in agriculture. Even in the pages of the Bible this is clearly seen, where people of wealth and nobility were owners of fields, flocks, cattle, and other agricultural-based assets.

The Need for Bretton Woods III

USA - The United States of America is in big trouble, short term and long term. In 2022, the stock market is crashing, bond market is down the most in 40 years, housing bubble is bursting, inflation is skyrocketing, debt is exploding, and GDP is shrinking. These are not temporary crises. Instead, they reveal systemic flaws in the American economy that is propped up by a rigged global financial system. However, that system is starting to crumble and the primacy of US dollar is in serious trouble, thanks to an emerging multipolar world. (Don’t believe the nonsense that the US can keep printing infinite amount of dollars).

Putin-Xi meeting agenda revealed

RUSSIA - The leaders have a packed agenda as both face increased tensions with the West. Russian President Vladimir Putin and Chinese leader Xi Jinping will discuss the Ukraine conflict in depth, as well as the Taiwan issue, when they meet in Uzbekistan later this week, presidential aide Yury Ushakov said on Tuesday. “Given the current international situation, this meeting, of course, has special importance,” Ushakov said, adding that the leaders would address “the bilateral agenda, as well as major regional and international topics." An issue that is expected to loom large during their meeting is the Ukraine conflict, with the Kremlin representative signaling that Putin and Xi would discuss it in depth. Putin and XI are also set to discuss the issue of Taiwan, building on the Russian leader’s recent meeting with Li Zhanshu, the speaker of the Chinese National People’s Congress, during an economic forum in the eastern Russian city of Vladivostok. Tensions around the self-governing island have been mounting since US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi visited Taipei in early August, drawing ire from Beijing.

 
White House Readies 'Emergency Decree' As Nationwide Rail Strike Looms

USA - President Biden and senior administration officials are working with others in the transportation industry, including truckers, shippers, and air freight, for "contingency plans" if a rail shutdown materializes at the end of the week, a White House official told Bloomberg. The administration is trying to understand what supply chains could be disrupted the most - and how to utilize other forms of transportation to ensure commodities and consumer goods continue to flow across the country. More than 100,000 railroad workers could walk off the job on Friday if freight-rail companies and unions don't reach labor agreements. We noted that 29% of all US freight moves on the rails. Half the cargo is bulk commodities, such as energy, food, chemicals, metals, and wood productions - the other half is shipping containers of consumer goods. A work stoppage would cost the US economy $2 billion per day in supply chain disruptions. It wouldn't be the best optics for the Biden administration ahead of the midterm elections.

 
Nearly half of San Franciscans personally affected by crime

USA - While city residents reported being victims at high rates, almost as many said they distrust law enforcement. Nearly half of San Francisco residents have been victims of theft in the last five years, and nearly a quarter have been physically attacked or threatened, according to a poll published by the San Francisco Chronicle on Tuesday. According to the data, 45% of respondents have experienced theft and 24% have experienced violence or the threat of it. The proportion was even higher among minority populations, with 54% of black and 55% of mixed-race respondents saying they had experienced theft compared to 43% for white residents. Those surveyed who identified as Hispanic or mixed-race were the most likely to have been threatened or physically attacked, with 36% of both groups reporting violence against them.

 
Lockdowns Should Have Taught US a Lesson...

USA - The overreactions by state leaders in locking down their states, closing businesses they deemed "non-essential," closing schools, forcing restaurants to shut down, knocking over dominoes as we watched shortages occur almost immediately, followed by price hikes, the destruction of food, milk, livestock because there was more supply than demand, should have taught Americans a critical lesson. It only takes one major event for everything to start breaking down. When that happens, it all breaks down very fast.Preppers prepare because they know this. Prepping websites constantly encourage people to prepare because they too understand that. With the amount of panic and scrambling by the Biden regime in trying to keep the rail strike from happening, it is possible, in fact probable, that they find a temporary solution, buying Americans a little more time, until the next contract negotiations for the next "critical" industry.

Remember, the media and the Biden regime is more worried about the November midterms than helping Americans, so it is more than likely that they do something to "delay" what is coming until after November. Then it won't matter to them. What this should be is a wake up call to us all, even those of us that have been preparing for some type of catastrophe or disaster. The bottom line here is simple... the next disaster is right around the corner and the only question is: Are you fully prepared to survive it?

 
US Considers Sanctions on China to Deter Taiwan Attack

USA - The US is considering a package of sanctions on China to deter Beijing from invading Taiwan, Reuters reported on Tuesday, citing sources familiar with the discussions. The report comes as the sanctions imposed on Russia after the Ukraine invasion are largely backfiring on the West as the US and Europe are facing soaring energy prices and Moscow is profiting more from oil sales than before the war. The US economy is much more intertwined with China than Russia, so any major sanctions against Beijing would likely hurt the US more than the measures targeting Moscow. China has kept up the military pressure on Taiwan as US officials continue to visit the island. Since Pelosi made her trip in early August, five more US delegations have traveled to Taipei.

 
Disney Hires Top Drag Queen for Its New Superhero Show

USA - At least one future Disney “princess” may actually be a man. Disney has hired drag queen Shea Coulee to play an unspecified role in its new Marvel superhero TV show, Ironheart. The show will also include Zoe Terakes, a “non-binary” actress. Ironheart tells the story of an Iron Man-like superhero. It will likely debut next year. The show isn’t the only Disney series promoting new gender identities. In another Disney show, Baymax, an animated transgender character appears. On previous occasions, Disney executives have announced a “not-so-secret gay agenda” and efforts to add “queerness” to children’s programming. Disney has a company pledge to make 50 percent of its onscreen characters sexual and racial minorities.

 
LA Schools Push Childhood Obesity

USA - The Los Angeles Unified School district promoted a video to encourage childhood obesity last week featuring a nutritionist who represents the processed food industry, according to the Los Angeles Parents Union. The video, apparently published on the Human Relations page of the district’s Instagram account, aims to dismiss the idea of “bad” food no matter its nutritional value as “based on a false standard of ‘health.'” The conversation is followed by Kéra Nyemb-Diop, whom the video identified as the “Black Nutritionist,” encouraging students to abandon conventional standards of “good” and “bad choices.” “Diet culture, fatphobia, and systems of oppression have created false hierarchies of food and show up everywhere,” says Nyemb-Diop. “Remember that you do not need to ‘earn’ food… Eat without guilt, regardless of what society says.”
