North Korean Rocket Launch prompted posting this.

Note that "Chernobyl" in the Ukrainian Language means "wormwood". In the book of Revelation, there is an angel of "Wormwood".

Here is the passage from the book of Revelation about the Angel and the "star" called wormwood.

Rev 8:10-11

10 The third angel sounded his trumpet, and a great star, blazing like a torch, fell from the sky on a third of the rivers and on the springs of water--

11 the name of the star is Wormwood. A third of the waters turned bitter, and many people died from the waters that had become bitter.

(NIV)

The following are some additional tidbits about this:

1. The North Korean Rocket overflew the Akita Prefecture in Japan.
2. Our Lady of Akita is also known as "Our Lady of All Nations"
3. Pope Benedict was involved in the approval of the messages and investigation into the verification of the "investigation of the statue"
4. One aspect of the message is for people to embrace "poverty" and pray... (Current economic conditions and direction?)

I will also post an image of both the statue and the painting of Our Lady of All Nations.

I would be careful with this apparition.
“Since 1973, when the events began, eleven years have passed. As that was the first time I was a witness of the rather extraordinary events, I went to Rome to the Sacred Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith in 1975 where I consulted Archbishop Hamer, deputy secretary of this Congregation, and whom I already knew. He explained to me that judgment regarding such a matter falls under the jurisdiction of the local Ordinary (bishop) of the diocese in question.

In 1976, I asked the archbishop of Tokyo for the creation of a commission of inquiry. This first commission declared that it was not in a position to prove the supernatural events of Akita. In 1979, I presented to the Congregation a request for the formation of a second commission of inquiry. This second commission permitted us to examine the facts still more in detail.

In 1981, a letter of the Congregation, unfavorable to the events, was sent to the nunciature in Tokyo. But this letter contained some misunderstandings. Esteeming it my duty to restore the exactitude of the facts, I re-examined all the facts in 1982 at the time that the mysterious events, seemingly, came to an end. Through the intermediary of the Apostolic Nuncio in Tokyo, I sent the complete dossier, augmented with the new facts, to Rome.

At the time of my trip to Rome in the month of October last year (1983) I was able to meet with three officials charged with the matter in the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith. At the end of this meeting we had decided that the dossier should remain under examination.”
Pastoral Letter of Bishop John Shojiro Ito April 22, 1984

Thanks to poster Magisterium, I dug this out:

And on June 29, 1973, an angel directed Sr. Agnes to include the word 'Truly' in the prayer of Akita, to stress the Real Presence of Our Lord in the Eucharist.

This is from the website:

http://www.LadyOfAllNations.org/akita.htm

Then it goes on to talk about (in the next sentence) about Our Lady of All Nations (Amsterdam):

At Amsterdam, the visionary, Ida Peerdeman experienced the True Presence of Our Lord in the Eucharist, as no other person has, from the period of 1958 to 1984.

The important aspect of Akita was the "stressing of the True Presence of Jesus in the Eucharist"...

You are right that the statue at Akita is "The Lady of All Nations." But that lady promoted socialism! See http://my.homewithgod.com/israel/lady1/:

"Breadth of vision has to come, a more social outlook. There are various movements showing a trend to socialism, which is good, ..." (8/29/1945)

How can this be the Mother of God? Socialism was condemned by several popes. Accordingly, how can Akita be true?
