"GABRIEL'S REVELATION" RAISES NEW QUESTIONS AND OLD ANSWERS
By Michael McClellan

• Was a Messiah Named "Simon" Executed and Resurrected 135 Years After the Birth of Jesus?

• Is Gabriel the Only Being Other Than God and Jesus That Can Command Humans?

• Why Is There Such a Close Relationship Between the Angels Gabriel and Michael?

• When Does Gabriel's 70 Weeks Come to an End? What Musical Instrument is the Clue?

Daniel 8:16 ESV ~

And I heard a man's voice between the banks of the Ulai, and it called,
“Gabriel, make this man understand the vision."

July 12, 2008 (3:30 AM EDT), UPDATED (5:04 PM EDT): According to the occultist and prophet Johannes Trithemius, the Age of Gabriel ended in November 1879, ushering in the age of the archangel Michael. Since then, modern astrologers have made a ten year correction to Trithemius's calculations with the last grand lunar cycle having actually ended in November 1889. Fifty years after Trithemius' 1508 work De Septem Secundeis was published, Nostradamus completed his final version of The Centuries (ie, Les Propheties de Notradame). In his many astronomically-dated quatrains and prose prophecies, he too alludes to the siecle de lune and siecle de sol, the grand cycles under the angels Gabriel and Michael.

According to Nostradamus a second Antichrist was to be born at the end of the age of the Moon and the beginning of the age of the Sun. Adolf Hitler was born in March 1889, thus Nostradamus' astronomical datings of the angel ages also differs ten years from that of Trithemius. As we can also see above, the French oracle correctly foresaw an era of "dreadful horrors and vengeances" when the age of Gabriel gave way to the Age of Michael. Never greater horror has come to the new Romans as has been witnessed in the 20th Century and now the 21st Century as Babylon once again becomes the centre of global attention.

Be that as it may, whilst this may indeed be the Age of Michael, it appears that Gabriel has been given the spotlight for a short span of time. Gabriel's revelations to the Old Testament prophet Daniel and now a new revelation written on a stone tablet are drawing worldwide attention. This is very appropriate when one considers that Gabriel's favourite instrument, the shofar trumpet, shall be blasted by tens of thousands of horn-blowers in every time zone on this planet as a call to wake up and repent during the first new moon Festival of Trumpets on September 29, 2008.

Thus, It is incumbent upon us to listen and pay attention to what he has to say. For, Gabriel is the Angel of the Moon, which also makes him the Angel of Duality (good and evil). Thus, on one hand he is Angel of Death and Destruction (as the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah discovered to their great collective dread and horror), but on the other hand is the Angel of Mercy, Resurrection, and Revelation. He is the king of angelic prophecy, and as such, it is only fitting that he was the angel of revelation for Daniel, the king of Old Testament prophets.

Only five appearances of Gabriel are recorded in the Bible, at least as far as can be discerned:

In Daniel, Chapter 8, he explains the vision of a great war between a ram with two horns and an he-goat with a single horn between his eyes.

Many eschatologists believe this portended the destruction of the Medo-Persian Empire by Alexander the Great and the division of the kingdom into four parts among his generals. From one of these generals, they see in the prophecy of the "little horn," issued forth a dynasty that produced the profaning and cruel tyrant, Antiochus Epiphanes.

However, they fail to give credence to the fact that Gabriel tells Daniel that this is a vision that shall not occur until "the time of the end" and "the latter days."

In Daniel, Chapter 10, it is not clear whether the angel is Gabriel or not, but at any rate we may apply to him the unique characteristics found in verses 5 and 6. Here, Gabriel reappears to introduce the vision of Daniel, Chapter 11 ... a vision which is quite obviously a much shorter version of the same war he prophesied in Chapter 8 concerning the ram (Persia and Media) and the goat (Grecia, ie. the king of the west). Once again he tells Daniel that the vision of Chapter 11 will not occur until "the time of the end."

Even so, the echatologists' view does establish the war of the ram and the goat as an archetype of the confrontation between "the king of Persia (Iran)" and the European Union, aka World War III. Alexander likewise becomes an archetype for the "Great Monarch" who appears in a multitude of prophecies from the fourth century AD until modern times. This figure, in all likelihood the same personage named "Chyren" and "Chiren" by Nostradamus, appears at the end of World War III to liberate Europe, crush the enemies from the East, end the war, and establish a new Holy Roman Empire. Antiochus Epiphanes, who appears near the end of Chapter 11, then becomes the archetype for the beast of Revelation.

Last year Gabriel's revelation to Daniel took on a new significance when the prophet's tomb was destroyed by terrorists. Could the destruction of Daniel's Tomb usher in Gabriel's prophecy of World War III?

EXTRA: Tomb of Daniel destroyed, 5 dead, over 13 abducted in Iraq Earthtimes.org - Sun, 29 Jul 2007 14:59:29 GMT Baghdad - The tomb of the prophet Daniel was destroyed Sunday in Baquba, the provincial capital of Diyala, a police source told Deutsche Presse-Agentur dpa. "Unidentified individuals planted a load of high explosives around the tomb of the prophet Daniel in al-Wajihiya area, thus destroying it completely and razing it to the ground," the source said. The attack was carried out by gunmen, who later attacked residents of a nearby village, killing five and kidnapping at least 13 others, the independent news agency Voices of Iraq (VOI) reported. "A group of gunmen using 4x4 vehicles planted a load of explosives around the tomb and detonated it bringing down the edifice and its green dome," the source told VOI. The gunmen proceeded to Bahbasa village near al-Wajihiya and killed five villagers and kidnapped at least 13 others, fleeing the scene unscathed," he added. Al-Wajihiya lies in al-Maqdadiya district, one of the adminstrative districts of Diyala, which lies 57 Kilometres north- east Baghdad. Daniel was one of the most important prophets in the Old Testament.

Although on the surface the destruction of the Old Testament prophet Daniel's tomb may appear to be old news, one must keep in mind that the passing of a year between one event and others linked to it is hardly of consequence after over 2300 years.

Daniel was considered to be the greatest prophet of the ancient world, celebrated in a number of world religions in both east and west, and perhaps the only one to employ numerology along with ecstatic visions in his writings. His work clearly inspired many of the so-called "great monarch" prophesies which were further enhanced by mystics such as Methodius, Merlin, and Hillarion.

Daniel 11:2-4 ~

And now will I shew thee the truth. Behold, there shall stand up yet three kings in Persia; and the fourth shall be far richer than they all: and by his strength through his riches he shall stir up all against the realm of Grecia. And a mighty king shall stand up, that shall rule with great dominion, and do according to his will. And when he shall stand up, his kingdom shall be broken, and shall be divided toward the four winds of heaven; and not to his posterity, nor according to his dominion which he ruled: for his kingdom shall be plucked up, even for others beside those.

Daniel alone can be credited with prophesying the triggering event of World War III. Only Nostradamus, it would appear, was likewise able to divine the dawning of this final era, unfortunately cached in quatrain form rather than in narrative. Daniel adhered to the narrative form with almost modern story-telling precision, a feat not matched in other ancient prophetic works and only accomplished in later years in Nostradamus' Epistle to King Henry II.

According to the eighth chapter of Daniel, where the king of Persia and the various kings of the Medes are allied and symbolised by a two-horned ram, the first stage of World War III begins at the Karun River near Iran’s western border with Iraq which flows into the Shatt al Arab. Thus, the provocation appears to be Iran meddling in Iraq's civil war:

Daniel 8:1-8, 8:15-21 ~

In the third year of the reign of king Belshazzar a vision appeared unto me, even unto Daniel, after that which appeared unto me at the first. And I saw in a vision; and it came to pass, when I saw it, that I was at Shushan [W. Iran, above Persian Gulf] in the palace, which is in the province of Elam [W. Iran]; and I saw in a vision, and I was by the river of Ulai. Then I lifted up mine eyes and saw, and, behold, there stood before the river a ram, which had two horns, and the two horns were high; but one was higher than the other, and the higher came last.

I saw the ram pushing westward, and northward, and southward; so that no beasts might stand before him, neither was there any that could deliver out of his hand; but he did according to his will, and became great.

And as I was considering, behold, an he goat came from the west, on the face of the whole earth, and touched not the ground [air and sea power]: and the goat had a notable horn between his eyes. And he came to the ram that had two horns, which I had seen standing before the river, and ran unto him in the fury of his power.

And I saw him come close unto the ram, and he was moved with choler against him, and smote the ram, and brake his two horns; and there was no power in the ram to stand before him, but he cast him down to the ground, and stamped upon him: and there was none that could deliver the ram out of his hand. Therefore the he goat waxed very great: and when he was strong the great horn was broken; and for it came four notable ones toward the four winds of heaven.

In Daniel, Chapter 12, Gabriel is likely the archangel speaking of the end of the world and the Antichrist: “At that time shall Michael rise up, the great prince, who standeth for the children of thy people.” This is apparently about the ultimate end of the world conflict, Armageddon, since the figure associated with Antiochus Ephiphanes and the beast of Revelation is dead or soon to die at the end of Chapter 11.

In Chapter 6, after Daniel had prayed for Israel, we read that "the man Gabriel . . . . flying swiftly touched me" and he communicated to him the mysterious prophecy of the "seventy weeks" of years which should elapse before the end of time.

Daniel 9:24-26 ~

Seventy weeks (70 x 7) are determined upon thy people and upon thy holy city, to finish the transgression, and to make an end of sins, and to make reconciliation for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up the vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most Holy. Know therefore and understand, that from the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem unto the Messiah the Prince shall be seven weeks, and threescore and two weeks: the street shall be built again, and the wall, even in troublous times. And after threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be cut off, but not for himself: and the people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary; and the end thereof shall be with a flood, and unto the end of the war desolations are determined.

69 of these weeks (or 69 weeks of years, 69 x 7 = 483 years) are held to have been completed with the seven year war and Roman seige of Jerusalem, the ending of the daily sacrifices, the destruction of the Temple, the occupation of Jerusalem by Rome under the Emperor Hadrian, and the cutting off of one called "messiah" at the end of the 69th week. Many have always thought this messiah was Jesus Christ (who died well before the destruction of the temple). History, however, tells us that this messiah was actually named Simon:

Agrippa was the one who made an agreement or covenant with the mighty, the Romans. They then laid seige against Jerusalem and a war started that was to last for seven years. During the midst of that seven the sacrifices ceased and the temple was burned to the ground. After the seven years war ended, for sixty-two years the Romans occupied Jerusalem. They made it into an army camp complete with “ditches” or latrines.

Near the end of the sixty-two weeks, a “messiah” came on the scene and began a rebellion of the Jews against the Romans. Rabbi Akiba called the man, Simon Bar Kochba, the “Son of the Star” and declared him to be the promised messiah. For three and one-half years they fought against the Romans making the Roman occupation miserable. But the Romans prevailed and defeated the rebels and the Jews suffered huge losses. Bar Kochba was cut off in the “middle of a week” of years and found hiding in a cave in En-Gedi with no one to help him. At the end of 69 of the 70 weeks, it was over. The people of the Jews were dispersed and forbidden to enter Jerusalem and were “encouraged” to flee the country. The sixth age ended as Enoch and Daniel saw in their visions and recorded for our day.

PROPHECY: Part 1, Sealed Prophecies Reveal Shocking End-time Events

We can now confirm that Simon Bar Kochba was the messiah that Gabriel revealed to Daniel in prophecy. This time the words of Gabriel regarding Simon and the end of the 69th week are to be found upon a stone tablet found amongst the Dead Sea scrolls. The text is named "Gabriel's Revelation" and has already stirred much debate among many of the world's religions, large and small.

Lines 19 through 21 of the tablet contain words, which translated read: "In three days you will know that evil will be defeated by justice." Line 80 of the tablet begins with the words "L'shloshet yamin," meaning "in three days," but then fades. Some scholars see the next word as illegible, but Israel Knohl, a professor of Bible studies at Hebrew University in Jerusalem, says the word is Hebrew for "live," followed by even more difficult-to-read words that he claims complete a command meaning, "In three days you shall live, I, Gabriel, command you."

http://www.worldnetdaily.com/?pageId=68924

Before continuing, I must point out that this is the first instance ever of an archangel commanding a human being to do anything. Until now, such words have only been read as coming from God or Jesus. Of course, Gabriel is called the Angel of Resurrection. Even so, for an archangel to have the power to boldly assert commands in scripture to mortals is in contradiction to the usual image we see of a being that often instructs men and women not to bow down before him or worship or heed him as a god.

To whom is the archangel issuing his command? The next line says "Sar hasarin," or prince of princes. Since the Book of Daniel, one of the primary sources for the Gabriel text, speaks of Gabriel and of "a prince of princes," Knohl contends that the stone's writings are about the death of a leader of the Jews who will be resurrected in three days.

Knohl told the Herald Tribune that he interprets the tablet to tell of a messianic figure named Simon, whose death was recorded by the Jewish historian Josephus. The tablet, Knohl contends, was likely written by Simon's followers and demonstrates that messianic followers even before Jesus looked to their leaders rising again, thus nullifying the frequent claim that Jesus' resurrection was a uniquely developed story."

... Knohl is one of several scholars who suggest Jesus may not have been unique in his claim to face suffering, death and resurrection, but that sources, like this tablet, suggest a common messianic story that New Testament writers may have merely been copying.

"This should shake our basic view of Christianity," Knohl told the Tribune. "Resurrection after three days becomes a motif developed before Jesus, which runs contrary to nearly all scholarship. What happens in the New Testament was adopted by Jesus and his followers based on an earlier messiah story."

... Moshe Bar-Asher, president of the Israeli Academy of Hebrew Language and emeritus professor of Hebrew and Aramaic at the Hebrew University, however, remains skeptical of Knohl's interpretation of the tablet. "There is one problem," he told the Tribune. "In crucial places of the text there is a lack of text. I understand Knohl's tendency to find there keys to the pre-Christian period, but in two to three crucial lines of the text there are a lot of missing words."

What Knohl fails to reveal to the public is that the identity of this Simon messiah has been well known for centuries. He is the already discussed Simon Bar Kochba, the “Son of the Star” who began a rebellion of the Jews against the Romans during the 62nd week of Daniel and was captured half-way through the 69th week. According to historians he and his followers were brutally butchered at the Battle of Betar on the ninth of Av in 135 AD. However, as the dating indicates, Simon was not a messiah whose death and resurrection preceded that of Christ as claimed by Knohl; he was actually a second messianic figure who died one hundred years after Jesus was crucified and raised from the dead. What is controversial here is that Gabriel predicted Simon would also be resurrected like Jesus and that he, Gabriel, would conduct the resurrection, not God.

For those who are curious, the ninth of Av falls on August 9 this year and on July 29 next year.

In any event, "Gabriel's Revelation" appears to contradict the historical view of Simon Bar Kochba's death. The stone prophecy claims that Gabriel resurrected Simon after he lie dead for three days. Historians admit that the actual details of Simon Bar Kochba's demise are not known with any certainty. In some accounts, he was captured by Hadrian, rather than falling in battle, and then crucified after being subjected to torture.

Ergo, "Gabriel's Revelation" introduces two new revolutionary ideas: 1) the concept of a resurrected second messiah named Simon had been established in prophecy long before the birth of the first messiah, Jesus and 2) Gabriel, like God and Christ, has the power to command and shape the destiny of human beings.

Thus ended the 69th week prophesied unto Daniel. Still one week of years remains to be fulfilled. Many scholars believe this will commence with the building of the third Jerusalem temple where now stands the mosque called the Dome of the Rock.

Interestingly enough, seven years from now (a week of years) may well come an end to time on September 28, 2015 during the Feast of Trumpets:

A minister who promotes the Old Testament roots of Christianity suggests a rare string of lunar and solar eclipses said to fall on God's annual holy days seven years from now could herald what's come to be known as the "Second Coming" of Jesus ...

Pastor Mark Biltz said he's been studying prophecies that focus on the sun and moon, even going back to the book of Genesis where it states the lights in the sky would be "be for signs, and for seasons." Biltz adds the word "seasons" implies appointed times for God's feasts and festivals ...

In the New Testament, Jesus is quoted as saying, "Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light ... And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory." (Matthew 24:29-30)

Thus, Biltz began focusing on the precise times of both solar and lunar eclipses, sometimes called "blood moons" since the moon often takes on a bloody color. He logged onto NASA's eclipse website which provides precision tracking of the celestial events.

He noted a rare phenomenon of four consecutive total lunar eclipses, known as a tetrad.

He says during this century, tetrads occur at least six times, but what's interesting is that the only string of four consecutive blood moons that coincide with God's holy days of Passover in the spring and the autumn's Feast of Tabernacles (also called Succoth) occurs between 2014 and 2015 on today's Gregorian calendar.

"The fact that it doesn't happen again in this century I think is very significant," Biltz explains. "So then I looked at last century, and, believe it or not, the last time that four blood red moons occurred together was in 1967 and 1968 tied to Jerusalem recaptured by Israel."

He then started to notice a pattern of the tetrads.

"What's significant to me is that even before 1967, the next time that you had four blood red moons again was right after Israel became a nation in '48, it happened again in 1949 and 1950 ... on Passover and Succoth. You didn't have any astronomical tetrads in the 1800s, the 1700s, the 1600s. In the 1500s, there were six, but none of those fell on Passover and Succoth."

When checking the schedule for solar eclipses, Biltz found two – one on the first day of the Hebrew year and the next on the high holy day of Rosh Hashanah, the first day of the seventh Hebrew month. Both of these take place in the 2014-2015 year.

Biltz says, "You have the religious year beginning with the total solar eclipse, two weeks later a total lunar eclipse on Passover, and then the civil year beginning with the solar eclipse followed two weeks later by another total blood red moon on the Feast of Succoth all in 2015."

Biltz was also asked about the famous statement in Matthew 24:36 when Jesus was discussing the signs of His "coming, and of the end of the world": "But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only." (Matthew 24:36)

He responded by referring to the annual Feast of Trumpets holiday, saying Israelites never knew the precise moment it began, "because it was based on the sighting of the new moon."

"When He (Jesus) says you won't know the day or the hour, He's telling you it's the Feast of Trumpets because that was known as the feast where no one knew the day or the hour that it would begin," said Biltz.

http://www.worldnetdaily.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=63076

If true, a final seven-year period may begin this year on the Festival of Trumpets that shall be celebrated by the sounding of shofar trumpets (Gabriel's instrument) worldwide on September 29, 2008. Halfway through this period the beast of Revelation will come to power along with his false prophet. This would occur sometime in March 2012. Sometime around September 28, 2015 would then come the Battle of Armageddon and the Second Coming of Christ, bringing an end to the 70th week of Daniel.

Aside from the Old Testament Book of Daniel, Gabriel also appears in the New Testament where he foretells to Zachary the birth of the Precursor (John the Baptist). Later, unto Mary, Gabriel foretells that she shall give birth to the Saviour (Jesus Christ).

In occult literature, Gabriel is associated with the Moon. It is not at all inconsistent that Johannes Trithemius would associate Gabriel the Angel of the Moon with the Deluge of Noah since the moon does indeed exert influence over the tides of the seas and oceans.

The feminine aspects of Gabriel (or Gabrielle) become personified as Artemis and Diana, the Greek and Roman goddesses of the moon. In Celtic lore she is the White Goddess, the terrible and beautiful moon goddess who is the Muse who inspires all Poets.

Gabriel, in Hebrew, means 'God is my strength.' Gabriel is the Angel of annunciation, resurrection, mercy, vengeance, death and revelation. In Jewish legend it was Gabriel who dealt death and destruction to Sodom and Gommorah and the other cities of the plain. In the Talmud Gabriel is said to be the destroyer of the hosts of Sennacherib. The destruction as described can only be compared in modern times with that which can be caused by hydrogen bombs. Gabriel is also credited with delivering the three children from the fiery furnace where they were to be sacrificed.

In closing, here is another thought: it was likely Gabriel and not some demonic spirit in Quatrain 1.2 who was the "divine" one seated nearby the "king of anno domini prophets," Nostradamus, as he received his nightly visions of the future.

Nostradamus, Quatrain 1.2 ~

The wand in hand is placed in the middle of the Branches, then inking a wave he anoints the hem and foot:
Fear. A voice trembles through his long sleeves: Divine splendour. The divine one sits nearby."

Yes. Even Daniel fell afraid at the feet of the great archangel Gabriel (as the Bible indeed tells us). We can expect no less from Nostradamus, inking the hem and foot of each letter he writes with his goose's quill (wand) held tightly in his fingers (branches). He too dreaded the angelic countenence upon first observing it at the beginning of his own long journey into future time...

ELECTION YEAR 2008: CLEAR CHOICES OR FINAL
PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION IN US HISTORY?
By Michael McClellan

February 22, 2008 (3:20 AM EST): There is certainly plenty happening in the world to-day worth discussing in the light of prophecy and base 7 prediction. There has been a considerable amount of seismic activity in the area of California and coastal Mexico of late. A recent swarm of quakes is the largest in the region since 2006. The missile targeting of a US spy satellite still has not rained down its debris on earth and will not for another 24 hours, nor is the status of its toxic fuel known absolutely. Russia's reaction to this has been to cynically call it a test of the US antiballistic missile system and the first effort by America to use its missile defence system offensively against Moscow. Meantime, the largest and brightest fireball since the great meteor of August 1972 blazed through the skies of the American northwest three nights ago and crashed.

The violence in Serbia in the aftermath of Kosovo declaring independence is yet another concern. I dreamt of this turmoil in Belgrade by the way and the charred body discovered last night, but never posted the dream because it was so crazy in manner and therefore shall not discuss it at this time. Putin's warning to the West and the United States that support for Kosovar independence might result in a major Balkans war is troubling since, in retaliation, Russian military intervention in Georgian enclaves Abkhazia and Ossetia, is being planned. Russians anticipate this will in turn provoke a US-Russian war in the region. Russian accusations that Bush is planning an attack in Iran and Syria whilst he and many high-ranking government officials are out of the country have also been voiced, to be followed by attacks on China and Russia. Meantime, of course, there is always the faltering world economy to cause many of us deep concern.

Nevertheless, it is the US Presidential Elections and the ongoing campaigns that must now demand our attention.

Will Hillary or Obama become the democratic party's candidate ... and does it really matter? I thought I would begin here because, if either of two important prophecies are correct, the outcome of either's administation may be exactly the same. Also, there is the question raised by the base 7 system of whether either will be allowed to run for office.

But first the prophecy of the candidates.

William Branham (1933) -- There arose up in America a most beautiful, but cruel woman. She held the people in her complete power. I believed that this was the rise of the Roman Catholic Church, though I knew it could possibly be a vision of some woman rising in great power in America due to a popular vote by women. I heard a most terrible explosion. As I turned to look I saw nothing but debris, craters, and smoke all over the land of America.	Kenyan Prophet Johanwa Owalo (1912) -- So far have they [the United States] strayed into wickedness in those future times that their destruction has been sealed by my father. Their great cities will burn, their crops and cattle will suffer disease and death, their children will perish from diseases never seen upon this Earth, and I reveal to you the greatest mystery of all as I have been allowed to see that their [the United States] destruction will come about through the vengeful hands of one of our very own sons.

Senator Barack Obama, a man with ‘messianic’ appeal to masses of American people, was born on August 4, 1961 in Honolulu, Hawaii to Barack Obama, Sr. (born in Nyanza Province, Kenya, of Luo ethnicity).

This begs the question, I suppose, as to whether the two rival senators will become running mates. If so, then both prophecies will be fulfilled. Either way, it would appear Amerika is doomed.

Then again, will either Hillary Clinton or Barack Obama become the next president of the United States?

From a base 7 perspective, the current election campaign in the United States should be aligned exactly with 1980 (4 x 7 or 28 years ago). However, unlike 1980, the US is bogged down in a military quagmire the likes of which it has not seen since the Vietnam War. Thus, the only election in the last 70 years that even comes close to matching this one is the 1968 election. The time the US has been in Iraq is even exactly the same now under George W. Bush in 2008 as it was under Lyndon Banes Johnson in 1968.

However, from a base 7 perspective, 1968 will not repeat again until 2010: two years from now.

Even so, there are eerie parallels.

Bush is a lame duck who can not run again. Johnson was not a lame duck, but stated he would not seek re-election (after the huge defeat of US troops during the Tet Offensive). Bush is former Governor of Texas. Johnson was former Texas Senator and Congressman (the last important Texan politician to become president, in fact, until Bush).

Barack Obama is a charismatic black leader running for US president. No; he is not a black, charismatic, civil rights leader (who was not running for president) like Martin Luther King, but that's a minor difference here. The fact is, in the 1968-like atmosphere of this election, Obama will do as a psychological Martin Luther King.

King was assassinated in April 1968. Base 7 vector for that does not come up until April 2010. Still, this election year is so much like 1968, will it matter? Is April 2008 a time of danger for Obama?

And then there is Hillary Clinton. And this is something I have been warning about on this site since May 1999 when I projected that she would run for the New York State Senate in 2000 and win. I also projected that she would run for president in either 2004 or 2008. I also have said that she risks being assassinated. Why?

The last person to be Senator of New York State and run for president was Robert F. Kennedy ... in 1968. Hillary has, in the past, been compared with Bobby Kennedy. She has had the continual support and friendship of Bobby Kennedy's son, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Like RFK, she is related to the previous president (in her case related through marriage to Bill Clinton, in RFK's case, related to John F Kennedy by blood).

Hillary's time of danger should be June 2010, according to base 7 (although other base 7 influences from other people place her in danger twice in 2009 if there is an economic collapse and a world war). Again, though, this campaign year best matches 1968... so, the fact that she is like Bobby Kennedy places her in potential danger in June 2008.

That's right: both Obama and Hillary could end up in danger of being topped up by some nutter this year.

The parallels do not end there. An actual name from the 1968 election has also remerged: we now have a Romney running for president again... havent heard that name since 1968.

Off in the sidelines, out of view and out of notice at this time, but not without honours and much worldwide acclaim, is the man who lost the 2000 election to Bush by such a narrow margin: Al Gore. In 1968, off in the sidelines and out of view, was the man who lost the 1960 election by a narrow margin: Richard Nixon. No one seriously thought Nixon would run for, let alone win, the White House in 1968. But the assassination of RFK changed all that.

Likewise, no one at this time seriously believes Al Gore will ever run for office this year, let alone win. But what happens if Hillary and Obama are no longer?

Will there be a new "Tet Offensive" in Iraq in February or March? If there is, expect a loss of life such as we have never seen yet in that country and a setback so major for US troops that 4 or 5 more years in Iraq and other parts of the Middle East can virtually be guaranteed. The trouble is this is a different world than in 1968: a war spreading from Iraq to Iran, Syria, and other nations between 2008 and 2011 will have a much different and deadlier outcome for the world than when war in Vietnam spread to Cambodia, Laos, and Thailand between 1968 and 1971.

March 9, 2007 (12:48 AM EST): Of late I have been attacked by some viewers for paying too much attention to female celebrity predictions. This has particularly been the case with the death of Anna Nicole Smith and how it fits in with a prediction I made concerning the tragic death of a model/actress happening by September 2007, as well as the remote possibility that she may have been the "blonde supreme" of Quatrain 1.39 (we won't know if this is true until the medical examiner finally provides a cause of death, reportedly a week from yesterday).

All prophecy is inter-related and the outcome of some predictions can have unimaginable consequences for everyone. Does anyone now doubt that Madonna could one day become the personification of the Whore of Babylon in light of recent remarks she made about wanting to be worshipped as another Jesus or Gandhi? On the other hand, the pathetic breakdown and attempted suicide of Britney Jean Spears (who I have been warning is in danger of self-destruction since November 2002) reveals just how common are our human fears and disillusionments. One can only feel pity for her and hope she escapes the diabolical influences that are pursuing her.

Yes, diabolical. For it is evil itself that stalks these women. Call this evil the devil if you like.

The age of the first modern false prophet, Aleister Crowley (who called himself the beast), has been with us for nearly a century. Crowley began as a good man, a great thinker, and a seeker of truth but ended utterly obsessed with the occult. His law, "Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law" ("Do your own thing"), facilitated the climate of innocently disguised occultism that has produced nearly every significant scandal from Hollywood to Paris and other celebrity havens where some famous or aspiring actress, singer or dancer has ended up dead or driven insane (like the 1920s Fatty Arbuckle rape scandal and the persecution and resulting mental breakdown of 1930s actress Frances Farmer). It is believed aspiring actress Elizabeth Short (the "Black Dahlia"), the inspiration for the recent Brian De Palma film of the same name, fell victim to Satanists in 1947. In the 1960s there were no pop religions like Kabbalah or Scientology, but there was Eastern mysticism and there was always Anton LaVey and his "pop" version of the Church of Satan. Not surprisingly, two of his most famous followers ended up injured or dead in horrific car crashes. Singer and "Rat Pack" member Sammy Davis Jr. was first, losing his eye in a frightening automobile mishap. Next came blonde actress Jayne Mansfield, LaVey's favourite. Depending on what source you believe Mansfield was either brained (scalped, only much worse) or decapitated in a car crash.

Is it any surprise that poor, Kabbalah-crazed Britney Spears, unable to face her own personal demons following the breakup of her marriage, has shaved her head, written occult symbols on her hands and 666 upon her bald head, proclaimed herself the Antichrist, and then attempted to end it all with a ritual hanging? I knew the moment she shaved her head that she was preparing herself as a sacrifice. I pray that the worst is finally over for her and I hope all of you wish her well too.

It is too late for Anna Nicole Smith. Depending on what the medical examiner says, we will know if she too, perhaps along with her son Daniel, was also a sacrifice.

Why do female celebrities make the best targets for all that is evil in the world? Because, unlike their male counterparts, they have the global spotlight on them all the time. In this day and age they have become the role models for females everywhere, and, when sex is taken out of the equation, they become potential role models for everyone, male and female (as was the case with Princess Diana, a blonde, Mother Theresa, and former political and glamorous heads-of-state like Benazir Bhutto, Sonia Gandhi, and Tansu Ciller, another blonde). In two months time it is possible the very attractive, sexy, and charismatic woman, Segolene Royal, will be the new president of France and in less than two years a similar situation may happen in the United States.

Whilst most serious prophecy seems to be about men, especially male leaders, and the fates of nations, we ignore the females of prophecy at our own peril. There are many views on what the Whore of Babylon is, the most prevelant view being that it is somehow tied to the Catholic Church and a future pope. However, the mention of the mystery religions (Kabbalah is a mystery religion) and gross carnal and immoral excesses that typifies this "woman" makes it clear that this is a pagan religion and a culture of hedonism that will one day prevail throughout the entire world. How can anyone doubt the possibility that this immoral system will become personified by an actual person? And, considering her lofty ambition to be worshipped as Jesus or Gandhi, her self-crucifixion antics, and search to buy real estate in Greek islands where Hera and Artemis were revered as goddesses alongside Sappho, the Black Madonna and Mary, why couldn't this person be pop icon Madonna?

Aside from the Book of Revelation, the prophets St. Hildegard and Maria Calvat had much to say about the condition of female celebrity. In their view, it will be a future female celebrity, demanding to be worshipped as a saint or goddess, who shall give birth to none other than the Anti-Christ!

THE PROPHETS ST. HILDEGARD (1098-1179)
AND MELANIE CALVAT (1831-1940)
MAY HAVE INSPIRED THE FIRST TWO FILMS
OF THE POPULAR HORROR SERIES, 'THE OMEN'

In many ways their work surpasses the horrific imaginations of this most successful of diabolic films concerning the Anti-Christ as a child and then as an adolescent. Their complete Anti-Christ prophecies are much too long to post here, but what does appear should make one think of certain recent events in desert countries like Namibia and Malawi and how they could play out again in the future. It is amazing and frightening that both women foresaw almost identical events concerning the birth of Anti-Christ and his infamous mother, upbringing, including his time in military school, the realisation of his powers at age 12, and that he would have brothers similar to him, and powerful also. Calvat wrote in an almost gothic style, sparing nothing of the romantic language that frames the horrible and the terrifying.

Angelina Jolie has established the trend of female celebrities having babies in desert countries. Who shall be next? And after?

An unchaste woman will conceive an unchaste son. The wicked serpent who deceived Adam will influence this child in such as way that nothing good or virtuous will enter him; nor under the circumstances will it even be possible for any good to be in him. The mark (of Antichrist) will be a hellish symbol of Baptism, because thereby a person will be stamped as an adherent of Antichrist and also of the Devil in that he thereby gives himself over to the influence of Satan. Whoever will not have this mark of Antichrist can neither buy nor sell anything and will be beheaded. The Son of Corruption and Ruin will appear and reign for only a short time, towards the end of the days of the world's duration; the period which corresponds to the moment when the sun has disappeared beyond the horizon; that is to say he shall come at the last days of the world. He will not be Satan himself, but a human being equalling and resembling him in atrocious hideousness. His mother, a depraved woman possessed by the devil, will live as a prostitute in the desert. She will declare that she is ignorant as to the identity of his father, and will maintain that her son was presented to her by God in a supernatural manner, as was the Child of the Blessed Virgin. She will then be venerated as a saint by deceived people.

Antichrist will come from a land that lies between two seas, and will practise his tyranny in the East. After his birth false teachers and doctrines will appear, followed by wars, famines, and pestilence. His mother will seldom let any one see him, and yet by magic art, she will manage to gain the love of the people for him.

He will be raised at different secret places and will be kept in seclusion until full grown. When he has grown to full manhood he will publicly announce a hostile doctrine on religion. He will lure and attract the people to himself by granting them complete exemption from the observance of all divine and ecclesiastical commandments, by forgiving them their sins and requiring of them only their belief in his divinity. He will spurn and reject baptism and the gospel. He will open his mouth to preach contradiction. He will say, `Jesus of Nazareth is not the son of God, only a deceiver who gave himself out as God; and the Church instituted by him is only superstition'. The true Christ has come in his person. He will say, `I am the Saviour of the world'. Especially will he try to convince the Jews that he is the Messiah sent by God, and the Jews will accept him as such.

After having passed a licentious youth among very perverted men and in a desert, she being conducted by a demon disguised as an angel of light, the mother of the son of perdition will conceive and give birth without knowing the father. In another land, she will make men believe that her birth was some miraculous thing, seeing that she had not appointed a spouse, and she will ignore that, she will say, how the infant she had brought into the world had been formed in her womb, and the people will regard it as a saint and qualified to the title.

The son of perdition is this very wicked beast who will put to death those who refuse to believe in him; who will associate with kings, priests, the great and the rich; who will mistake the humility and will esteem pride; who will finally subjugate the entire universe by his diabolic means.

The Man of Sin will be born of an ungodly woman who, from her infancy, will have been initiated into occult sciences and the wiles of the demon. She will live in the desert with perverse men, and abandon herself to crime with so much the greater ardor, as she will think she is authorized thereby to by the revelations of an angel. And thus, in the fire of burning concupiscence she will conceive the Son of Perdition, without knowing by what father. Then she will teach that fornication is permitted, declaring herself holy and honoured as a saint.

But Lucifer, the old and cunning serpent, will find the fruit of her womb with his infernal spirit and entirely possess the fruit of sin.

Nothing good will enter into him nor be able to be in him. For he will be nourished in diverse and secret places, lest he should be known by men, and he will be imbued with all diabolical arts, and he will be hidden until he is of full age, nor will he show the perversities which will be in him, until he knows himself to be full and superabundant in all iniquities.

As soon as he is born, he will have teeth and pronounce blasphemies; in short, he will be a born devil. He will emit fearful cries, work miracles, and wallow in luxury and vice. He will have brothers who are also demons incarnate, and at the age of twelve, they will distinguish themselves in brilliant achievements. They will command an armed force, which will be supported by the infernal legions.

Thus the time will be reached in which the Antichrist will be born of a Jewish nun, a false virgin who will have intimate relations with the ancient serpent, the master of luxury. His father will be a bishop. As soon as he is born he will have teeth and pronounce blasphemies; in a word he will be a born devil. He will emit fearful cries, work miracles and wallow in luxury and impurity. He will have brothers who are demons incarnate as he will be, but sons of evil, and at the age of twelve years they will distinguish themselves in brilliant victories. Almost all of them will be the head of an armed force, supported by the infernal legions.

The seasons will change their characteristics, the Earth will be lit with a fiendish red light; the water and the fire will cause terrible seismic movements which will engulf mountains and cities.

Rome will lose the Faith and become the seat of the Antichrist. The demons allied to Antichrist will operate on Earth and in the sky and Humanity will become worse. But God will not give up his truly faithful servants who are men of good will. The Gospel will be preached everywhere to all the people and the nations will know the truth.

Woe to the inhabitants of the Earth. There will be sanquinary war, hunger, pestilence and epidemics, terrible rains of insects, thunder which will shake entire cities, earthquakes which will make entire regions uninhabitable. Voices will be heard in the air, and men will strike their heads against the wall, wishing for death, but this will bring them, for their part, terrible torture. Blood will flow everywhere. Who could ever report victory unless God shortened the time of trial?

AHMADI-NEJAD'S "GRAND DESIGN"
By Michael McClellan

August 29, 2006 (3:06 AM EDT) - In a recent letter to Naira, I tried to explain that Arabs have just as much to fear from Iranian leader Mahmoud Ahmadi-Nejad as do Israelis. I said that he considers the Persian race to be a sort of Iranian Aryan master race, just as Hitler exalted all things Germanic. In such a world, in such an empire, the majority Sunni Arabs would be treated like slaves. Here is an excerpt of what I said:

With Ahmadinejad in power there will never be peace because he incites everyone to go to war with Israel and the US and worse, to destroy Israel. Even when the US leaves Iraq, there will always be Israel that he will incite everyone against. Hezbollah is just the middle man: Ahmadinejad is the real architect of this war we are now witnessing. It doesn't excuse Israel's actions: they have over-reacted and killed many innocents in the process. They have innocent blood dripping from their hands. But don't doubt for a moment that Ahmadinejad did not calculate this would happen. He expected it to happen. And he doesn't care about Lebanese lives anymore than he does Israeli lives. As far as he is concerned his Persian Aryan race is superior to the Arab Nation. He would use Arabs as his slaves as Hitler did the Poles, Czechs, and Hungarians.

No kidding, Naira. The man in Iran is your worst nightmare. Don't applaud him. He wants all of the Middle East in the end, including Egypt. I really feel sorry for the Iranian people, especially the youth who have so much promise, because he is brainwashing them. You mentioned past discussions, and you know I pinpointed Iran as the dangerous nation five years ago, but there was no person there yet to worry about. I said he had not yet come, but he is there NOW.

I have since come across a brilliant article which I think everyone should read. If you ever doubted that the bearded man in Teheran is the monster known as the Third Antichrist, the despotic Persian warlord Daniel warned would declare war on all the nations west of Iran, not only in the Middle East but even to the furthest western reaches of Europe, a true Hitler alive again in the Middle East, please read this. THIS MAN MUST BE STOPPED BY SOMEONE.

Arabs and Palestinians, he will enslave you, exile you right along with Israelis. Turkey, do not trust your seeming alliance with Iran just because they also shell your enemies the PKK. I have long warned that you shall be forced to fight a bloody and losing war against Iran. I saw it twelve years ago before my eyes in dreams. In that place, it has already happened! Checkmate this dictator now with Nato's help and with the help of the Arab community. Russia, stop being his ally, he will turn against you in the end, double cross you and put your nation into chaos, revolution, and civil war, allowing suicidal renegades to plunge you into a nuclear war with America. What is left of you, China and Central Asia will take. Stop World War III now before it is too late!

Stop Iran's Ethnic Cleansing in Iraq

by Scott Sullivan
Associated Press

August 28, 2006 11:41 AM EST

Indications are that Ahmadi-Nejad is planning three massive campaigns of border adjustments and ethnic cleansing on a scale that will make Slobodan Milosevic look like a petty thief. Ahmadi-Nejad’s threats against Israel represent only the tip of the iceberg of his plan to create a new “National Socialist” Middle East. In most danger following Israel are Iraq, Saudi Arabia, the Persian Gulf states, Lebanon, and Azerbaijan. First, Iran will drive all the Sunnis from Iraq, and use Iraq to consolidate Iranian control of Lebanon, Syria, and the Persian Gulf. To do this, Iran will alter Iraq’s borders and will probably annex outright eastern Iraq including the Basra region that contains 60% of Iraq’s proven oil reserves.

In order to partition Iraq, Iran will also encourage Iraqi Kurds, with whom Tehran already has a political agreement aimed at disenfranchising the Sunnis, to drive all the Sunnis from Mosul and Kirkuk. The Kurds would then proclaim an independent Kurdistan, with Kirkuk as its capital. Kirkuk contains Iraq’s largest oil reserves, following Basra. Thus, the Sunnis would be deprived of all substantial income from oil revenue.

Iran’s ethnic cleansing in Iraq would have catastrophic consequences for the region. For one thing, Iran then would be in a strong position after challenging Iraq’s borders to challenge Saudi Arabia’s borders. Specifically, Iran/Iraq would then stir up irredentist sentiment among Saudi Arabia’s large Shia community abutting Iraq, which contains the bulk of Saudi oil reserves. Iran could make a power grab for this territory, which would touch off another round of ethnic cleansing as the Iraqi-Saudi border is adjusted.

For another ethnic cleansing opportunity, Iran could spur Shia militancy in the Persian Gulf states like Bahrain. As these states fall into Iran’s orbit, massive refugee flows of Arabs could ensue.

Israel, Palestine and Lebanon.

Second, Iran will drive all the Jews from Israel, along with the secular and Christian Palestinians, from "Palestine." Ahmadi-Nejad already openly boasts of “wiping Israel from the map.” His pro-Shia ethnic cleansing for Iraq, Israel and Palestine would put severe pressure on the Shia in Lebanon, now under Iran/Hezbollah control, to follow suit with their own copycat ethnic cleansing campaign.

Iran, Azerbaijan and Central Asia.

Third, Iran will then turn on its domestic Azeri community -- some 30 million strong and increasingly pro-Turkey. Iran's Azeris want no part of an Iranian empire in the region, which at some point entails Iranian confrontation with Turkey and Azerbaijan. Iran is already an ally of Armenia, much to the discomfort of Turkey and Azerbaijan who are locked in a bitter dispute with Armenia over the future of Nagarno-Karabakh. Iran’s Azeris identify more with Turkey and Azerbaijan than with Tehran.

In this final round of ethnic cleansing, Iran will send large numbers of Azeris to Turkey and Azerbaijan to remove a potential threat to the stability of Iran's theocratic regime. In a recent provocation, a leading official Iranian newspaper printed a cartoon depicting Iran's Azeris to Turkic-speaking cockroaches, a provocation that led to days of rioting and several deaths in Iran. Remember, whatever Ahmadinejad does to the Sunnis, Jews, and non-Islamist Palestinians, he will do to the Azeris. To put it another way, if Ahmadinejad chooses to pursue ethnic racist national socialist policies abroad, beginning in Iraq, he will do so at home as well. Of course Ahmadi-Nejad’s entire ethnic cleansing plan is insane. So was Hitler's plan, but he went ahead anyway.

WHOSE SIDE IS GOD ON?
By Michael McClellan

"He mumbles a prayer and it ends with a smile
The order is given
They move down the line
But he'll stay behind and he'll meditate
But it won't stop the bleeding or ease the hate.

As the young men move out into the battle zone
He feels good, with God you're never alone
He feels tired and he lays on his bed
Hopes the men will find courage in the words that he said.

Sky pilot ..... sky Pilot
How high can you fly?
You'll never, never, never reach the sky!

You're soldiers of God you must understand
The fate of your country is in your young hands
May God give you strength
Do your job real well
If it all was worth it
Only time it will tell ..."

--- excerpt from Sky Pilot by Eric Burdon & The Animals, 1968

July 28, 2006 (2:00 AM EDT)

I thought it appropriate to begin with this excerpt from Eric Burdon's classic anti-war hit from 1968, because it really hits home to where we are today: in Lebanon, Israel, Palestine, Syria, Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan, Pakistan ...

If you believe that God has a side in this global war that is developing, you will soon find you are truly disillusioned. For thousands of years, mankind has fought hundreds of wars, each side believing that his had "God on their side." This is especially true about the confrontation today that is being represented as a war between Judeo-Christians and Muslims, with psychopaths on both sides calling each other "infidel" and "satan," declaring God will grant his side victory against the "godless" adversaries.

I don't care if you are a Christian, a Muslim, a Jew, a Hindu, a Bhuddist, a pagan, an athiest, or any other type of believer or non-believer. God is NOT on your side! This global war, if it is allowed to materialise, is going to be very special because God will despise the winners and the losers equally, and He will demonstrate His Wrath to everyone on this planet.

Every war has a technical "winner": however, there shall be none who can claim a moral victory in this war. All shall be condemned.

As everyone whips themselves into an apocalyptic frenzy, preparing for "the Rapture" or the Second Coming or some other messianic intervention to save them, I am here to WARN YOU ALL: THERE SHALL BE NO SALVATION FOR THEE! God has had enough!

I do not mean to suggest that none in this world are saved or beyond His grace. But none among us are beyond punishment, for we err grievously when we think to wage a war and call it righteous in His name.

Also, I do not presume to speak for God, but I am inspired by Scripture to say what must be said.

He has had enough of those who destroy this planet, who hurt the earth and destroy the wildlife for its resources, and those also who destroy the earth and murder millions of children through warfare. By declaring war against Nature and war against Man, Mankind has declared war against God Himself!

So do not be surprised that you and I shall surely die and not see any mercy or last minute intervention. Hide in the holes and caves like the foxes and rabbits when a storm approaches, that is my advise.

For as Nation rises against Nation and plunders the planet, God shall chastise all. And this chastisement has been warned of by St John in his book of Revelation:

Revelation 6:12-17 ---

I looked when He opened the sixth seal, and behold, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became like blood.

And the stars of heaven fell to the earth, as a fig tree drops its late figs when it is shaken by a mighty wind. Then the sky receded as a scroll when it is rolled up and every mountain and island was moved out of its place.

And the kings of the earth, the great men, the rich men, the commanders, the mighty men, every slave and every free man, hid themselves in the caves and in the rocks of the mountains, and said to the mountains and rocks,

'Fall on us and hide us from the face of Him who sits on the throne and from the wrath of the Lamb! For the great day of His wrath has come, and who is able to stand?'

from The Kolbrin, Chapter 4: The Affliction of God ---

Then came the day when all things became still and apprehensive, for God caused a sign to appear in the Heavens, so that men should know the Earth would be afflicted, and the sign was a strange star.

The star grew and waxed to a great brightness and was awesome to behold. It put forth horns and sang, being unlike any other ever seen. So men, seeing it, said among themselves, 'Surely, this is God appearing in the Heavens above us'. The star was not God, though it was directed by His design, but the people had not the wisdom to understand.

Then God manifested Himself in the Heavens. His voice was as the roll of thunders and He was clothed with smoke and fire. He carried lightings in His hand and His breath, falling upon the Earth, brought forth brimstone and embers. His eye was a black void and His mouth an abyss containing the winds of Destruction. He encircled the whole of the Heavens, bearing upon His back a black robe adorned with stars.

Such was the likeness and manifestation of God in those days. Awesome was His countenance, terrible His voice of wrath, the sun and moon hid themselves in fear and there was a heavy darkness over the face of the Earth.

Yes, it is nothing less than the great day of God's wrath and His face that the sinners of this world shall see (and all of us, even the saved, have sinned most grievously).

It took the confused dream of a young woman to help me realise, not only my growing belief that Revelation 6 and "Planet X" are intimately related, but that for one day, the day appointed by God for all to see, His day of wrath, it will be His face we shall see instead of the swirling, coiling flames. The great day of His wrath shall come in a worldwide chastisement of earthquake, storm, deluge, and fire. Even the captains on the battlefield shall swoon with fear at the coming of this day when God shall rebuke the true enemy: War itself and those who hurt the planet.

Is such a thing a possible?

Comets in the ancient past have been known to take on forms such as serpents or wolves. The scientific explanation for this phenomenon (if there is one) is that it is the outer gases being distorted by the earth's gravitational pull. So, perhaps in this case, it will be likewise ... a molding and shaping of the fiery Planet X into a visage we shall all recognise!

Understand this is not Armageddon, the Final Judgment, or in any manner the ultimate ending of Revelation. It is a special day set aside for mankind to be punished for what he has done to the earth through war and peace and for sinning so very greatly! It is a day of wrath ... and a day of correction. Many things still must follow in its wake, events that may take many years. But the day of His wrath, the opening of the sixth seal (or Planet X appearing to the world as the face of God during the height of global war and global cataclysm, if you will), is as much a sign that the end times have begun as it is a day of punishment and redemption.

WORLD WAR III ...

... OR SOMETHING LIKE IT?

By Michael McClellan

July 14, 2006 (3:17 AM EDT), UPDATED July 21, 2006 (3:14 AM EDT): Well, it certainly appears that Mabus did die on June 7, 2006, doesn't it? The death toll in Israel's war in Lebanon and America's war in Iraq continues to rise.

It may well be that historians will come to regard that date as the day that global war was actually triggered. Or shall June 27, 2006, when Israel declared open war on Hamas and invaded the Gaza Strip because of an abducted IDF soldier, mark the "official" beginning of World War III? Then again, perhaps the date that will go down in history books will be July 12, 2006: the date Israel began a new war with Lebanon, because of more abducted soldiers and rocket attacks by Hezbollah ... a war far worse than any other previous military offensive against that nation since June 1982.

Of course, that depends on what happens next. Lebanon, like Iraq, could become Israel's quagmire. Then there will be two quagmires in battle side by side, one for America and the other for Israel.

However, if Israel attacks a number of strategic targets in Syria, provoking a military retaliation from Damascus, then the Rubicon shall truly be crossed, transforming yet another Israeli confrontation with Lebanon into World War III. Surely that would be the date historians would select?

Not exactly. What we would have then is an Arab-Israeli War, not World War III. The last time Israel and Syria fought such a war was October 1973 and, before that, June 1967. Yes, even if Israel and Syria go to war, it will not be too late for diplomacy to save the day ... unless unconventional weapons are used by Syria against Israel.

Should that occur, should Syria, its proxy Hezbollah, or less likely its ally Iran, surprise Israel in the night with a major chemical and biological attack, then the next move shall be horrific, and is warned about by the Bible prophets Isaiah and Jeremiah:

Isaiah 17:1-3 -- The burden of Damascus. Behold, Damascus is taken away from being a city, and it shall be a ruinous heap. The cities of Aroer are forsaken: they shall be for flocks, which shall lie down, and none shall make afraid. The fortress also shall cease from Ephraim, and the kingdom from Damascus, and the remnant of Syria: they shall be as the glory of the children of Israel, saith the LORD of hosts. Jeremiah 49:24-28 -- Concerning Damascus, Hamath [N. Syria] is confounded, and Arpad [N. Syria]: for they have heard evil tidings: they are fainthearted ... Damascus is waxed feeble, and turns herself to flee, and fear has seized on her: anguish and sorrows have taken her, as a woman in travail. How is the city of praise not left, the city of my joy! Her young men shall fall in her streets, and all her men of war shall be cut off in that day, says the Lord of hosts. And I will kindle a fire in the wall of Damascus, and it shall consume the palaces of Benhadad.

The real reason danger of global war, rather than a limited regional war, presents itself at this time is that the climate is much different today than it was during past Arab-Israeli wars in 1956, 1967, 1973, or 1982.

There is already another major war ongoing in the Middle East: the US "war on terror" (or whatever you would like to call it). Iraq, Afghanistan, and Pakistan are all involved in this ever-worsening campaign.

Then there is the evil dictator in Iran, the true Hitler of the Middle East, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad (pronounced Ahk-máh-dee Neé-jahd). Note that "Nejad" rhymes with "jihad."

Ahmadinejad has threatened war with Israel if it attacks Syria. Furthermore, he has threatened the European Union with dire consequences ("war") unless they cease their support of Israel, promising that otherwise the Muslim world will be stirred up to create a pan-Islamic army of millions of Jihadists.

Daniel 11:2 -- Behold, there shall stand up yet three kings in Persia: and the fourth shall be far richer than they all: and by his strength through his riches he shall stir up all against the realm of Grecia (EU). Rigord of St. Denis -- A man will come forth from Elam (Iran) and will assemble a multitude of great forces, and will wage a great war against the nations, and he will not live long.

Finally, a power play, seemingly unrelated to events in the Middle East, is under way. This power play involves the four "great powers" of our time: the United States, the European Union, the Russian Federation and Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS), and China.

On July 4, 2006, China began playing its first card calculated to provoke a major conflict in the Pacific: their proxy North Korea, led by the psychotic "dear leader" Kim Jong Il, began a nuclear missile crisis with Japan and the USA that is still, technically, in progress. Almost seamlessly, the North Korea crisis gave way to the Middle East crisis, then faded from the scene. However, although things are seemingly quiet on the Korean Peninsula now that the spotlight is on Israel, this will likely change very soon ...

The Zohar warns, according to Jewish rabbis: "Our prophecies teach that the enemies of Israel will attack Israel in the middle of the night with a major chemical and biological attack. And the numbers of casualties will be tremendous. Israel will respond strategically with nuclear weapons, the beginning of World War III."

Should this occur, the four major powers will be forced to take sides very quickly ... and they shall follow their own peculiar lines of nationalistic priorities. China wants Taiwan and sees the United States as their chief adversary and obstacle. Russia is growing ever angrier with and increasingly paranoid of the Nato alliance and the European Union encroaching upon its frontiers whilst private fears build of the possible disintegration of a Russian Federation surrounded by dangerous former Soviet republics. The United States is in a highly defensive mode due to terrorism, and is so obsessed with making itself and the world safe from terrorism, it is losing sight of the bigger picture materialising in the former Soviet Union, the Pacific, and Europe itself. Meantime, the integrity of the EU is being challenged by diverse ethnic, religious, and political groups, especially the Islamic minorities, within its own member states and seemingly powerless to act whenever civil unrest spills over.

Quatrain 2.43 During the appearance of the hairy star, The three great princes (Russia, China, US) will be made enemies: Peace struck from the sky, the land trembles, Pau [France], the winding Tiber [Italy], a serpent suspended above the shore. Alois Irlmaier -- The "Great City" of the United States will be destroyed by rockets, and the West Coast will be invaded by Asians, but they will be beaten back. Then the Third World War will come, but I cannot predict the year. It will be preceded by signs in the skies, which will be seen by millions of people. War will begin on a rainy night, shortly before harvest time, when the ears are full. War will begin after the assassination of an eminent politician in Czechoslovakia or in Yugoslavia. An invasion from Russia and the East will follow ...

China would like to deal with North Korea and Russia to erase the United States from the face of the earth. Russia would like to deal with Iran and other Islamic states to aid it in removing the EU and Nato as threats, and then weaken or subjugate the most powerful nations of Europe (after which it would doublecross Iran and its allies, destroy them, and then grab the oil fields). The EU seeks to appease Russia and Iran, fearful that the so-called "lone superpower," the United States, which it reluctantly needs on its side, will not be there to help defend them if a mass invasion of the continent takes place. The US seeks to deal with all three, blind to the differences that have developed to make former "allies" into deadly, two-timing enemies. Worst of all, the US is the only idealistic power in the whole lot, believing it is actually making a better world through warfare and occupation, in the hopes of eradicating the menace of terrorism once and for all.

Global war may escalate with the death of Malus

Wait a minute ... wasn't "Mabus" Abu Musab al-Zarqawi?

That all depends on whether "Mabus" is an anagram of a name or a word. According to Erika Cheetham, Mabus may actually be an anagram of "Malus": Latin for "the evil one." If true, then "Alus" is also an anagram of "Malus."

This word, Malus, would be an appropriate term to apply to the Third Antichrist, wouldn't it? And to Nostradamus, this antichrist appears to be the leader from Persia (Iran).

Rigord of St. Denis tells us the leader of Iran "will not live long," but that the war will proceed without him.

Either that or he is telling us the war itself will not last long because the man who starts it (the leader who will "come forth from Elam [Iran]") will not live very long. Even so, such a war could last a few years.

Indeed, after his declaration of war a Christian false prophet appears, but not, apparently, the same one described in the Book of Revelation. He might ignore the prophecies of Daniel, belittling the danger posed to Europe by Iran and its Muslim allies, instead preaching and preparing the world for Ezekiel's war of Gog, land of Magog. Then comes a terrible comet that will rip the sky as the war plays out and as terrible natural disasters ravage the planet:

Quatrain 5.27 With fire and armaments, not far from the Black Sea, He will come from Persia to occupy Trabzon: Pharos and Mytilene tremble, the Sun is happy, Arab blood covers the Adriatic Sea.		Rigord of St. Denis -- A man will come forth from Elam and will assemble a multitude of great forces (Daniel 11:2), and will wage a great war against the nations (Zechariah 14), and he will not live long.
Quatrain 4.43 Armies will be heard battling in the sky: In the same year the divine ones are enemies: One will wish unjustly to debate the holy laws, By lightning and war many believers put to death.		Up will rise another man who will say that he is a prophet. He will hold a book in his hand and say that he was sent by God and by His prophets. And with his teachings he will cause many nations to go astray, and will seduce even more. But that which he will prophesy will come upon his own head. And he, too, will not live long.
Quatrain 2.62 Mabus will soon die, then will come Of people and beasts a horrible destruction: Then all too suddenly the vengeance is revealed, A hundred, hand, thirst, hunger, when the comet shall run.		A comet will be seen in heaven -- a star, that is, with a tail or appendage -- and this apparition will signify destructions and tumults and hard strifes, and withholding of rains, and dryness of the earth, and mighty battles, and the flowing of blood upon the earth of the east, and from beyond the River Habor it will reach to the very end of the west. And the just and the truly righteous will be oppressed and will suffer persecutions, and the house of prayer will be destroyed.

It may be when this comet appears that the leader (Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadi-Nejad) dies and the rest of the war is carried out by a successor. Then America is attacked by Chinese and North Korean nuclear missiles, the Iranian-led Muslim army conquers the Balkans and moves against Italy and Rome, and Russia launches a massive invasion of Europe.

Russia will feel it has nothing to lose by this point. For the "comet" may be nothing less than "Planet X," also called ancient Nibiru, which might possibly be the recently-discovered red "outer planet" named Sedna, accelerating like a runaway train through the inner solar system and passing near our planet.

NOTE: THIS article may be updated again and more material added. If and when it is, it will be showcased on the Second Home page for a period of time. Technically, all of the articles on VIEWPOINT and Nostradamus NOW can be updated by their authors. I will have a small update, several months old, by Michel Paita shortly on Nostradamus NOW if I get the time.

Election and Overthrow of Hillary Clinton and the 2011 Holocaust

By Judas Disney

Specific prediction: U.S. coup d'etat on April 4, 2011, to be followed by the sign of a Grand Cross in the sky in the spring of 2011, followed by a First Comet in October 2011 during the Six-Day WW3.

The U.S. House of Representatives will shift to the Democrats in Fall 2006.

During the U.S. Presidential Election of 2008, no candidate will achieve a majority number of electoral votes. By law, the President in 2008 will be chosen by the House of Representatives. This has happened once previously in U.S. history. John Quincy Adams was chosen by the House of Representatives under similar circumstances.

In this case, the chosen President will be Hillary Rodham Clinton. This will lead to charges of "illegitimacy" and loud & violent dissent by U.S. Republicans. Eventually, a general Congressional boycott will be staged.

During her short tenure of 3 years, Hillary Rodham Clinton will fall into many traps laid carefully by an NSA and CIA stacked with Bush Administration appointees. The prize that Neocons are seeking is the repeal of Posse Comitatus, which only Clinton can achieve, but which will tarnish her administration with charges of "authoritarianism" and comparisons to Hitler -- although the real comparisons lie with the American Reichstag Fire of 9/11 and the Enabling Act of the U.S., the Patriot Act.

Clinton will also be led into a successful assassination of the legitimate, democratically-elected President of Venezuela, who shares her initials: Hugo Rafael Chavez. The assassination of Chavez during Clinton's tenure will provoke an irreparable rift between the U.S. and Latin America.

As Clinton is led into many apparently disasterous decisions via deliberately false intelligence from the NSA and CIA, her Vice President, Wesley Clark, will attempt to determine the direction of the subterfuge taking place throughout the intelligence sector and in the Pentagon, with little success. The coup d'etat which already began on 9/11/01 has the scale of a grand chess match, played out across the span of a decade.

The foreshadowing for the coup also includes the unsolved Anthrax Attacks (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anthrax_attacks). Beginning on September 18, 2001, and lasting several weeks, the Anthrax Attacks remain unsolved -- except for the fact that the Ames Strain of Anthrax originated at Fort Detrick, Maryland. Only Senate Democrats and perceived "liberal" news media were targeted.

During a Constitutional Crisis, a special session of Congress is called by President HRC, which the Republicans boycott. During the session, attended mostly by Democrats and the President, Al Qaeda "sympathizers" who have somehow "infiltrated" the U.S. military crash two "stolen" F-16s into the U.S. Capitol Dome. The Democratic Party will be largely wiped-out and Clinton will be assassinated.

This fulfills the synchronicity of the September 11, 1973 coup d'etat and assassination of President Salvador Allende in Chile by a CIA-sponsored right-wing military junta. The other parallel is the military coup in Argentina on March 24, 1976, which overthrew Isabel Peron, Argentina's female president. The aftermath of both coups d'etat provide an overview of the conditions which will prevail in the U.S. during the aftermath of the April 4 coup.

President Schwarzenegger will be immediately sworn-in as the True President by Chief Justice John Roberts. The New Constitution, already drafted, will be rapidly passed by a new hand-picked Congress. The TV networks will blare: "Everything is under control."

Live coverage on all networks unites the bereaved nation under a strong leader.

"America will rise from the ashes," declares Arnold. "I will not let these terrorists, nor their accomplices in political office -- our domestic enemies -- ever threaten thiis land again."

NBC, CBS and ABC offer President Schwarzenegger live access for any reason, at any time. They also offer the President full control of their news departments, in a show of patriotism. "I agree with CBS's decision," states Dan Rather from retirement. "President Schwarzenegger is going to restore America."

The new President hand-picks his New Congress and new "Freedom Of Speech Laws" are enacted immediately, to protect Good Americans from Bad Americans. The commonly-used terminology of "Domestic Enemy" which is used widely in the media during the HR Clinton Presidency, will be applied to U.S. citizens who do not support the coup and the New Constitution.

The Argentina-style roundups will begin. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dirty_war. Sports stadiums in major cities will be used as temporary detention centers. Mass-executions will sweep the U.S. during the month of April.

A supernatural event in the sky during this month on a Thursday, involving the collision of two stars, will produce a momentary burst of a rare spectrum of infrared blue-colored light, which will bathe the planet in a single distortion of the human perception of time -- which will virtually force an introspective awareness of each individual's integration of self and identity, both malignant and benign. This moment will be followed by a "Grand Cross" of light produced by the collision of these two forms. The "Grand Cross" will be filmed, recorded and televised. The moment will occur worldwide, but will occur during the nighttime hours from the Western quarter of Europe to the middle of Asia. Many people will interpret and experience the event as a Christian event or as a fulfillment of prophecies.

However, most of the geopolitical "pause" due to the event will be taken only by Western governments. At the time of the event, a great number of U.S. citizens will already have been killed. A large series of natural disasters will overtake the U.S. between May and September.

The month of October is the month of the Third War and the axis shift, which is caused by the impact of a comet which superheats the oceans and causes the melting of the remnant of Northern Arctic ice. In addition to the billions of deaths caused by this event, over two-thirds of animal species will be wiped-out, including polar bears, whales, dolphins, and most oceanic and Arctic species.

During the course of the events described above, 2006-2011, there will also take place an economic war precipitated by the Iran Oil Bourse and leading to a collapse of U.S. manufacturing and the Second Great Depression of the U.S., which will gravely affect the World economy.

From Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, author of Sherlock Holmes, in 1915:

A period of natural convulsions during which a large portion of the human race will perish. Earthquakes of great severity, enormous tidal waves would seem to be the agents. War appears only in the early stages, and appears to be a signal for the crisis to follow. The crisis will come in an instant. The destruction and dislocation of civilized life will be beyond belief. There will be a short period of chaos followed by some reconstruction; the total period of upheavals will be roughly three years.

The chief centers of disturbance will be the Eastern Mediterranean basin, where not less than five countries will entirely disappear. Also in the Atlantic there will be a rise of land which will be a cause of those waves which will bring about great disasters upon the Americans, the Irish and Western European shore, involving all of the low-lying British coasts. There are indicated further great upheavals in the southern Pacific and in the Japanese region. Mankind can be saved by returning to its spiritual values.

HURRICANE KATRINA: It HAS fulfilled a prophecy I made in 1998
By John Hogue

"The destruction of a major southern U.S. metropolitan area, such as Miami or New Orleans, by a global warming enhanced superhurricane will take place in one of the first five hurricane seasons of the new millennium."

"1000 for 2000: Startling Predictions for the New Millennium", p. 16

1 September 2005

Friends,

Reflected in the black and viscous waters of a flooding city, indelibly scoured by wind and wave in a the patchwork of the footprints of missing houses along the gulf coast, memorialized everywhere in monuments of rubble erected by 25 to 33 foot storm surges is Hurricane Katrina's devastating legacy as the first of many hothouse hurricanes to beset our planet in the coming 50 years.

After posting my last HogueProphecy Bulletin a few hours before landfall of Hurricane Katrina,it appeared the storm made a last minute turn to the north. I was hopeful that New Orleans would not become the first major US city predicted above claimed by superstorms coming out of a runaway warming climate. Now, four days later, an entire metropolitan urban center steadily disappears under water as levies battered by Katrina's storm surge collapse flooding 80 percent of the city.

New Orleans has fulfilled an interpretation of prophecy I hoped we would never realize.

It sets the stage for the hammer fall of another dire challenge predicted by collective prophecy. As far back as 1990, I have tried to warn people in lectures, media appearances and through books published from 1994 onwards about the Achilles' heal of modern civilization.

The "king of terror" foreseen by Nostradamus as "descending from the skies" in "1999" may not only be a terrorist, but a terror far more all encompassing and global. The skies descend on us in catastrophe's like Hurricane Katrina as the result of global warming.

Civilization may fall into a final world war "free-for-all" because there are too many people fighting for too few resources in a world where the climate has gone out of control because of too much fossil fuel pollution.

We are now VERY CLOSE to the tripping point of runaway global warming.

The greatest superpowers cannot long sustain their economic and political survival if in every hurricane season, one to two disasters take place such as the one we have just seen drown New Orleans and obliterate 80 miles of Mississippi and Alabaman coastline. The earth begins to strike back at us with powerful storms. Katrina is the beginning. If we do not get serious about slowing the human birth rate and eradicating our fossil fuel use, we will see more and more "Katrinas" that not only take out major US cities but whole states--whole regions of America in the near future.

Each new blow from greenhouse enhanced hurricanes may alert Americans about the necessity to get off the fossil fuels that feed these disasters--sooner, hopefully, than later or too late!

I published the following passage for "Millennium Book of Prophecy" in 1994. You can find it on pp. 64-65 of the illustrated 1994 edition and on pp. 70-72 of the text-only 1997 edition. Then as now, I
