Precursor to Armageddon? Hizbullah MP Believes That Syria, Iraq, Iran, and Hizbullah (Lebanon) Will Wipe Out Israel

Psalms 83:2-5, “For behold, Your enemies make a tumult; And those who hate You have lifted up their head. They have taken crafty counsel against Your people, And consulted together against Your sheltered ones. They have said, ‘Come, and let us cut them off from [being] a nation, That the name of Israel may be remembered no more.’ For they have consulted together with one consent; They form a confederacy against You”

If the ‘Shiite Crescent’ could, according to this former general, enter into such a war against Israel with a population mass exceeding 100 million, I’d imagine that any ‘Sunni Crescent’ would be more than willing to set aside their differences, even temporarily, with their Shia neighbors to easily double this population mass, an effort no doubt intended to ensure victory and bask in the ‘Islamic glory’ of a ‘divinely appointed destiny‘.  Due to the historic enmity between the two Islamic sects, of course, such a fragile coalition would completely fall apart if something were to go terribly wrong, and Shia and Sunni could very well all end up attacking each other instead …

Hizbullah MP Brig.-Gen. Walid Sakariya (Ret) – “Iran is the country most hostile to Israel, but Iraq serves as a buffer between Iran and the Palestine front – from the days of Saddam Hussein and until the US military presence in Iraq. Iran supports the forces of confrontation: Hamas, Hizbullah, and Syria. If, following the US withdrawal, Iraq becomes a bridge linking Iran to Syria, the Iranian forces could cross Iraq and arrive in Syria, in order to participate in a direct war on the Golan front. In that case, Israel would not be fighting Hizbullah alone. It would be fighting Hizbullah, Syria, Iraq, and Iran. This is the so-called ‘Shiite Crescent’ that they fear.  Since Iran dominates this (axis), the Arab countries refer to it as the ‘Shiite Crescent.’  If Hizbullah has 50,000 missiles and can destroy some targets in Israel, the equation will completely change when Syria and Iran join the war.  You will have the strategic superiority and a force large enough to pulverize Israel, even if this war costs you hundreds of thousands of martyrs – not just 1,000 or 2,000. You will enter this war with a population mass exceeding 100 million…

If Syria, as a confrontation country, falls, America and the Zionist enterprise will be victorious… But if Syria is victorious as a confrontation country, Israel will come to an end.”

Russia: Far Eastern Shiveluch Volcano on the Kamchatka Peninsula Churns Out More Ash

“MOSCOW, Aug. 14 (UPI) — Scientists said ash continued to billow from a volcano in Russia’s Far East, which could have an effect on international air traffic in the region.

The Shiveluch volcano on the Kamchatka peninsula was pushing ash as high as 6,000 meters (20,000 feet) and creating ‘light-intensity’ tremors on the ground lasting as long as 40 minutes, the Far Eastern Institute of Volcanology and Seismology said in a written statement.

No towns in the area were considered threatened by the ash fall.

Shiveluch has been erupting periodically since 2009. The size of the mountain’s crater has grown 50 percent in that period, RIA Novosti said Sunday.” Source.

Palestinian Statehood: Conquest Disguised as Liberation

By Dean Malik – “First they invaded; five Arab armies, from Jordan, Syria, Egypt, Lebanon, Saudi Arabia, and Iraq all descended. Israel was a state newly formed of a small core of native Sabras from the first five Aliyas along with the battered survivors of the Holocaust and a small cadre of American and British WWII veteran volunteers. After two years of desperate fighting and a cumulative loss to Israel of over one and a half percent of its population, the conflicted ended in a stalemate, with Israel holding a swath of land measuring 9 miles in width at its narrowest, and 71 miles at its broadest, extending 263 miles from the Lebanon border in the north through the Negev Desert in the south.

Three more wars followed in 1956, 1967 and 1973, then an airline hijacking campaign, multiple hostage seizures, civilian bus and car ambushes in the 1970s and 1980s, dozens of suicide bombings in the 1980s and 1990s, and a barrage of over eight thousand short and medium range rockets right up to the present.

This September, what the Arab world could not win in war, and would not accept in peace, it will ask the United Nations to give to it through a non-binding resolution, proving in a surreal twist on Von Clauswitz, that politics is in fact the continuation of war by other means.” Read more.

Expert: Large European Cities Overwhelmed by Muslim Population

“Muslim population in many big European cities already exceeds 20%, according to Alex Alexiev, an expert in international security and radical Islam and visiting fellow at the Hudson Institute, Washington, D.C.

In his words, however, what is especially worrying is that these Muslims are getting radicalized.

The expert reckons that almost all Western European countries are marked by a high degree of radicalization.

‘Unlike our Muslims from the Balkan Peninsula, they are much more prone to radicalization because the religious organs in Western Europe, the Muslim religious organs, are controlled and commanded by radical Islamists, subsidized/financed by Saudi Arabia and other places, and preach the ideologies of the Muslim Brotherhood and etc’, Alexiev explains in an interview fir the Focus news agency.

According to him, it seems to escape public notice that almost all Muslims in Western Europe are people residing in big cities.

‘Muslims in rural areas and small towns are hard to find. If we take the city of Marseille as an example, the Muslim population there exceeds 30%, the share of the young generation below 20 years of age is already above 50%, meaning that Marseille is on its way to become an exclusively Muslim city. The same applies to Amsterdam, Rotterdam, Malmö, and Antwerp’, the expert says.” Read more.

Germany: Turkish MP Beaten in Berlin Restaurant Owned by Muslims for Ordering Pork Sausage During Ramadan

1 Timothy 4:1, 3a, “The Spirit clearly says that in later times some will abandon the faith and follow deceiving spirits and things taught by demons… They forbid people to marry and order them to abstain from certain foods …”

Egypt: Muslim Brotherhood Challenges Military Rulers

The once banned Muslim Brotherhood — the group from which Osama bin Laden and Ayman al-Zawahiri began as activists — understands full well that the only waste that can never be recycled is wasted time as well as the first and, perhaps, only opportunity in over 80 years to advance the Islamist agenda upon the people of Egypt, if not the region …

“CAIRO (AP) — Egypt’s largest political group, the Muslim Brotherhood, warned the country’s military rulers Saturday not to interfere in the writing of a new constitution.

The statement from the Brotherhood marks the first time the Islamist group has directly challenged Egypt’s ruling military council since the ouster of former President Hosni Mubarak in February.

The group’s stand was prompted by comments from a senior government official this week that the military council will soon set out certain principles outlining who is eligible to draft a new constitution. The Brotherhood also fears the military is trying to enshrine a political role for itself in the constitution.

The drawing up of a new constitution is a topic of intense debate in Egypt.

Parliamentary elections are slated for later this year, and the Brotherhood and its fellow Islamists are expected to do well at the polls. That would likely give them a dominant voice in appointing the committee that will draft a new constitution.

Liberals fear that an Islamist-dominated committee will produce a document that serves only the Islamists’ agenda.” Read more.
