I am reminded of a few verses that speak of a port in ruins-- Revelation 18--

15: The merchants of these wares, who gained wealth from her, will stand far off, in fear of her torment,(because of the radiation) weeping and mourning aloud, 16: "Alas, alas, for the great city that was clothed in fine linen, in purple and scarlet, bedecked with gold, with jewels, and with pearls! 17: In one hour all this wealth has been laid waste." And all shipmasters and seafaring men, sailors and all whose trade is on the sea, stood far off 18: and cried out as they saw the smoke of her burning, (mushroom cloud)"What city was like the great city?" (New York?) 19: And they threw dust on their heads, as they wept and mourned, crying out, "Alas, alas, for the great city where all who had ships at sea grew rich by her wealth! In one hour she has been laid waste.

Well, that's it, then. It has been forecast in Revelation that DP World will blow up our ports, and prophecy is infallible.

Its sad that it took WND over a week to type in P&O on their google page and pop up the public information about U.S. holdings.

Not as sad as how many media outlets said "6" because that's what Chuck Schumer said.

Or about how many think this was some "secret". Or that the deal was "secret" when it's a public company and you can find the deal on the P&O web site.

DP World also has a very nice web site with lots of information about their ports and their board of directors and investors and stuff.

That prophecy is talking about all the worldly wealth throughout history. At the end of the world it will be nothing.

John on Patmos wasn't talking about NYC.

Ah. But Nostradamus predicted that the Muslims would destroy the Port of Marseilles. Glory Be!

John Gibson is having a guy on his radio show who was apparently a falconer for our "friends" in the UAE. He sounds like he was doing a lot more than just handling birds. He was on Gibsons TV show a few minutes ago and talked about our "friends" giving money and equipment to Bin Laden at these falconing camps.

Wow, I just read that verse this morning.

You can read a stunning overview of the Last Days here:

Will Islam Be Our Future? — A Study of Biblical and Islamic Eschatology

Eerily echoed here by David Horowitz, a conservative Jewish, but definitely not a Christian, apologist:

Hong Kong is a bigger port. So is Singapore. You gotta watch it with the whole prophesy from Scripture thing and projecting it forward.

Taiwan, for that matter, might fit the bill nicely after the Chinese decide to do a number on it.

22 ports will be controlled by A-Rabs now? The toll goes up, will they be controlling ferry terminals and day cruise slips. How about the submarine ride at Disney World?

Which city has the goddess Isis (aka Ishtar goddess of libertines) for a mascot...

What city in ruins would make the merchants of the world tear out their hair as they saw their investments and markets go up in smoke..

To take it all out in just one hour...would be one heck of a feat...one hell of an explosion..

What's most likely..volcano?...earthquake?...meteor?...nuke?

Who knows..Chi-Coms?..Rooskies?...N Koreans?..Muzzlems?

I have no doubt the bible is forecasting the truth..but the who,what,where,when,and why are yet to be determined...

On the other hand ,at my age, I would not want to live in NYC regardless...

Welcome to FR, thank you for posting these verses!
I hope also that this turns out not to be our country, but the way things look..... chilling.
The way so many are so determined to get this through has been so very strange this week.

For some reason this makes me think of Rush and I remember him saying once years ago that he didn't believe that this book of Revelation was really part of the Bible. I remember being surprised. Some just want Him to be all loving but with no Judgment.

God's Judgment is coming!

I agree, it reminds me of Collage 101 history class, -- The Fall of Constantinople, a furious assault of the Turks broke down the walls and gates(ports) of the city(country), and the besiegers burst in from every side. Emperor Constantine fell like a hero at the gate of St. Romanus. ---The mass (WMD) of Turks (islamist) military tactics was the raid, the ambush, the gathering of intelligence and sabotage - were just a means to the end of eroding the enemy’s will to continue the war.

“Those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it”.

Go to the P&O Ports web site

http://portal.pohub.com/portal/page?_pageid=36,1,36_31159:36_34061&_dad=pogprtl&_schema=POGPRTL

and check out the other ports worldwide that they operate. In particular look at Australia!

Oh ye of little faith. Don't you realize that George W. Bush is God's holy prophet of the Truth on earth. You better get right with him or you'll burn in hell.
