There Are Report Of Iranian Warships In The Suez Canal, And Oil Just Spiked

Something to watch. There are headlines going around that there are Iranian warships in the Suez Canal (viz ZeroHedge). Apparently the warships are headed for Syria, and Israel has even hinted at retaliation.

Oil just shot straight up.

Given the complexity of life and the planet . . . including social and governmental forces . . .

while they have had long range plans, they also realize that practically speaking, long range planning simply doesn’t work well—particularly in terms of specifics.

However they are good at pulling levers here, pushing buttons there . . . increasingly and incrementally setting the globe up for greater and greater levels of chaos, disaster, catastrophe . . . including WWIII that they are CLEARLY scheduling before toooooo many months/years.

Impeach obama for the treasonous traitor that he is and get this country back to what it used to be.

I truly wish we could. I've been depressed since he took office. I pray every day for some irrefutable evidence of corruption to surface that will result in immediate impeachment hearings.

It may have had to wait until we had a house that would actually do that. With the dems in charge, I don’t think that would have happened.

I have no doubt Iran would sacrifice their own peoples welfare for war against Israel. Their leadership has the same mindset as Kimbo of N.Korea. Only thing holding Kim back is China...and that’s growing thin.

Well of course...they know how to the play the game pretty well now. Besides Abajendowacky’s mindset IS to create chaos as the twelvers believe that the Emum will arrive only when there is chaos. With the protests going on throughout the ME he sees it as a green light to move... plus the Imans are preaching that the Emum is the one inciting the protesters.

At some point the man of the hour will step up who will deceive the nations....interesting that even European nations are dealing with protesters as well...this whole shabang might not be the “It” but is what it will likely resemble when He does step into view. Worldwide chaos with seemingly nobody in charge....perfect set up for a world dictator....all a matter of time.

China - military - 750 Million for active duty - America population is only 300 million.

This smells too large to me: think "logistical tail" and you'll get my meaning.

Cheers!

The 200 million strong from the King of the East or Kings of the East is still a mystery, to me.

A friend worked out the logistical stuff and said it was impossible no matter how one tried it even with modern equipment.

I’ve wondered if it was demonic forces . . . fallen angel forces or fallen angel mother ships or military power equal to that many people . . . curious.

True, however that’s a whole lot of bodies to put under military discipline:i.e. “Do it now or face a firing squad”.

In a thugocracy - war works. It's keeps the people in place and compliant. In a democracy it's the opposite - people tire of war and it's costs quickly.

With the ME going unstable - wars and threats of war will become common.

I agree...it can be no other way now. Heck even Egypt's people will not give the Military time to reconstruct and establish all which entails an election...and that takes time...they will not wait as evidened by their continued protests from numerous groups demanding everything and anything they've been denied thus far.

They are now positioning themsleves for another dictator IMO, who will have to clamp down on them in order to stabilize the nation...not to mention the great economic losses occurring added to the damage of these last weeks. It's going to get messy to say the least....meanwhile they are no further ahead.. rather are just creating a worse situation all around. I am not hopeful there is strong enough leadership there to handle all that's happening now...without the military clamping down real hard.

I suspect the other nations protesting will follow suite....the people are not well enough informed, nor have the understanding needed, to see that change requires time and people positioned with the ability to bring these changes. They ALL are demanding higher wages as if this is ever going to be satisifed....in even western nations!

I persistently pray that God will delay WWIII as long as possible.

Prayer matters, to God and thereby to us.

I pray LET GOD ARISE AND HIS ENEMIES BE SCATTERED.

I pray for the globalists to fall in the pits they have dug.

I pray for God’s truth to be revealed; Christ to be revealed; all of good heart to seek God and find Him with all their hearts.

Good prayer. I will probably incorporate it into my own daily prayers for America and the world.

God bless and keep you, Quix.

Steve Quayle Alert - urgent

From [FREEPER] | 02/18/2011 2:07:45 PM PST new

At the end of this article:

We are on vapor lock. Move all metals to locations away from your primary home bury them, hide them. Move food and necessary self defense weapons to secondary locations now if you have not done so. Have non-EMP dependent mode of transportation available - even a bicycle will get you further faster than just walking.

From this website: Read more articles and alerts here:

http://www.stevequayle.com/index1.html

Orchestrated Chaos and the Coming Class Warfare in America: The great disconnect between orchestrated chaos and the coming class warfare is becoming more in your face hourly. America is flat-ass broke, pillaged and plundered by the “shadow ghouls of international banking” and their totalitarian manipulation of every aspect of our lives and futures. Pensions, jobs and hope disappear daily as the American Dream vanishes in the glaring reality of those who still refuse to realize that they have voted continually for the “global slavers” and their “political hacks” whose promises are as empty as they have ever been and who have brought our once great Nation at the end of the line.

Liars and the empty promises of all politicians with very few notable exceptions have placed us at the pinnacle of peril, that makes contemporary language fail to convey meaning, requiring the Secular press to use Biblical terms to try and convey the lateness of the hour.

“The petrified pulpit personalities” have gone into their 4-Monkey Mode of seeing nothing, saying nothing, hearing nothing and failing to warn, admonish or even tell their congregants that we are under divine judgment at the hand of a holy God and need both personal repentance and national repentance to even start back on the road to redemption. The borrower is servant to the lender, and the great awakening in America may finally come when the Chinese and other foreign nations come to claim their commercial rights on all that they hold the mortgages and commercial liens on. more
