The Hebrew word for bee is “deborah”.

And I wouldn’t worry about the bees. The hype is much more dangerous.

Come to Texas. We have great heaps of bees, butterflies, and ladybugs here, along with every other godforsaken insect and arthropod that has ever lived. Our geckos are fat and satisfied.

It’s all that enrionmentalism. Lousiana is more pristine than Florida.

Anecdotal evidence which is really meaningless.
In contrast, my yard, which is a natural wildlife environment in miniature with ponds, meadow, fruit and nut trees, grapes and assorted flowers and fruit bushes like blueberries and raspberries. I have loads of bumblebees and other pollinators. The bee keepers and farmers need to adapt by using and/or encouraging other pollinators. To expect populations of anything to remain constant and never have bad years or disease etc is unrealistic.

The truth is this: Govt Chemtrail Spraying is Killing the Bees. Google it yourself. There are thousands of news reports out there. There is a lamestream media blackout going on. Govt says, 'No, no, no. We are not spraying anything. Those vast smog trails you see in the sky are just normal contrails.'

Take a peek at this video from Japan. Shot out the window of a passenger jet. Better yet look up Aerosol Crimes and get the DVD just for starters.

This is a another secret Black Ops project. Our government is spewing pure Bovine Squat. Chemical analysis reports show barium and aluminum oxide and far more dangerous chemicals in the mix. Linked to old timers disease, cancer and yada yada. 'Nuff said here on FR.

With deceptions like this going on, I believe you are correct. We may soon follow the honey bee.

This shows the lazy efforts of the News media. The spanish have found the parasite that causes the problem.

Science Daily - scientists have isolated the parasite Nosema ceranae (Microsporidia) from professional apiaries suffering from honey bee colony depopulation syndrome. They then went on to treat the infection with complete success.

this takes about 2 minutes to find via google. Too bad doom and gloom is all they know and that the Envirowhackos want everyone to think it is pesticides and pollution and global warming - but it is a parasite and treatable.

.

Look at all the insecticides in the home stores for the lawn and home. What's in the water bees drink? What affect might GM crop pollen have?

This is not good. I fear our incessant tampering is opening a Pandora's box we'll terminally regret.

“One marker is that the Antichrist is revealed so that the whole world knows who he is and, in addition, he imposes a 7-year peace treaty with Israel

I could see Zero announcing the new Government Mandated 7 Year Peace...

You said — I could see Zero announcing the new Government Mandated 7 Year Peace...

Well, I know that people like to joke about Obama like that, but I do get concerned sometimes that a few others might think that’s actually the truth and serious... LOL...

I would really hate for anyone to think that Obama being the Antichrist is any kind of serious consideration. So, for those who might wonder, it’s not serious. It’s actually a joke... So, don’t get excited.

Of course, there *is* going to be an Antichrist, and he will be far more powerful than anything that one can imagine. He will bring a “peace” to the Middle East region, such that the whole world will sigh a breath of relief, that the problem is *solved* finally.

The two issues over in the Middle East of “peace” and “security” will appear to finally be solved. That’s what the Bible says, that everyone will think, “Ahhhh..., finally, peace and safety”... but God has other plans for the Antichrist and the world.

Just on that one issue, by itself, I don’t see anything that Obama is doing that will bring “peace and safety” to the region. That’s not to say anything about the other markers that are in place, too, at the same time. That’s just on Obama, himself.

What happens when everyone and his dog starts wildly speculating about “the Antichrist” — in ways that don’t even match what the Bible says will be done — is that they actually *contribute* to the confusion on the matter as to what the Antichrist does and when he shows up.

Let’s just say — for sake of emphasis — if someone *does know* who the Antichrist is, then they’re in *really big trouble* because that means that coming of Christ for His church (i.e., all Christians...) has *bypassed* them and they are left to face the Antichrist and all the severe judgments of God against those who are on the earth at this time.

That’s a very, very bad position to be in — to actually *know* who the Antichrist is. You’re in really big trouble, if you do... You definitely don’t want to find yourself in that position. Let’s hope you (i.e., anyone) never finds out who the Antichrist is, by being here when he shows up.

Of course, the way to *insure* that this is the case (that you won’t find out yourself by being here) is to accept the Salvation of Jesus Christ, per the Scriptures as the Apostle Paul tells us.
