I believe this "great earthquake" is the New Madrid fault. I'm glad that President Trump's plan does not explicitly call for the division of Israel. I hope that if Israel DOES divide (G_D forbid) that America has nothing to do with it. About 10 years ago, I sat down with pencil, the back of an envelope, and the CIA World Factbook. Long story short, I calculated that if you consider Judea and Samaria and the Gaza Strip as part of Israel, separating those from Israel means Israel would lose about 24% of its area. Next, I calculated the size of the contiguous United States and calculated the percentage of area the states of Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, Tennessee, West Virginia, and Virginia make of the combined area of the contiguous United States. The answer was almost exactly the same 24%. WHEN the New Madrid Fault goes, it will damage or destroy locks, dams, AND BRIDGES across both the Mississippi River AND the Ohio River, up to the Pennsylvania border. Rebuilding those bridges won't be able to begin until after there is a reasonable certainty that the aftershocks have ended -- several months at best. You can expect the same situation up and down the Tennessee and Tombigbee rivers, including the Tenn-Tom Waterway. The Tenn-Tom is a series of locks and dams and canals that link the Tennessee and Tombigbee Rivers and allow goods on the Ohio River to bypass the Mississippi River and reach the port of Mobile (Alabama). Most, if not all, bridges crossing all the rivers of the American Southeast will be damaged, some beyond repair. Many of the communities in here will be cut off, possibly for years. I bring this up because it's a bit of a truism (but still true) that what a nation does to Israel will be done to it in return. We see this time and again throughout history: within 100 years of Rome destroying the Temple and eliminating Israel as a nation, the Empire had broken and soon would fall to barbarians, never to rise again. If America works to divide Israel, we might very well find ourselves divided and destroyed by an act of G_D.
The book "The Great Influenza: The Epic Story of the Deadliest Plague In History" [John M. Barry] traces the evidence with a timeline and makes a VERY strong case for the pandemic originating in Fort Riley, Kansas. Some horses had died from unknown causes, and the corpses were taken and burned in the open. The ash from their bodies blew far and wide, and within a month, doctors in the area were noticing people, including soldiers, coming down with a persistent cough, fever, etc. These soldiers (as well as their horses) were among the first to be shipped out to France. (Illnesses jump species when there is some kind of cross-species contamination: bird droppings or bat droppings getting mixed with animal feed, and humans butcher and eat the animals. Or bacteria hitch a ride on ash and smoke blowing in the wind, to be breathed in by humans.) It was called the Spanish Influenza because German, British, and American censorship prohibited any news reporting on this illness that was decimating soldiers in the field. The Spanish, having no such censorship, reported on it, so it became known as the Spanish Flu.
That's exactly what the evangelical church in America teaches to create Zionists in its ranks and it works. I don't believe a word of it.
I never believed in it either, but now, I don’t know. Does anyone know where this is written in the Bible? I’d rather be safe than sorry.
It's in Genesis 12 in reference to Abram. First off, Israel today is not the Israel God gave to the 12 tribes of Israel. In fact, nobody but God knows where the traditional tribes of Israel are today because they are still spread all over the world so how can modern day Israel be the Israel of the 12 tribes. I believe as the Church does. Those who proclaim Christ and remain in Him are Israel. Also, Jesus cursed the fig tree which has always been the symbol of Israel. Why? For being barren. A warning to all who confess Him. Finally, the high Priest confesses on the behalf of the nation that they know no king but Caesar. Then Jesus in Mathew tells us; [36] Amen I say to you, all these things shall come upon this generation. [37] Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them that are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered together thy children, as the hen doth gather her chickens under her wings, and thou wouldest not? [38] Behold, your house shall be left to you, desolate. [39] For I say to you, you shall not see me henceforth till you say: Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord.
What a beautiful death to have gone to mass that very morning. Plus he was flying out to help others, to do good works. How wonderful too when we die that others can find only good things to say about us. Catholics used to pray that they might not die an unprovided for death. In others words that they might die in a State of Grace ready to meet the Lord. It looks like this guy did so, big time. What a huge grace. Prayers for their souls at mass...and for all the poor people in China.
There is going to be some chest beating over Brexit on both sides but I think that for many of the smaller nations of the EU it is giving many pause.
Kentucky Attorney General Daniel Cameron Leads 17 States in Potential SCOTUS Abortion Case Kentucky Attorney General Daniel Cameron (R) is leading 17 states in the filing of an amicus brief before the U.S. Supreme Court in support of an Indiana law that requires parents to be informed when their child is granted court approval for an abortion without their consent. WDRB reported Cameron argues in the brief for Box v. Planned Parenthood of Indiana and Kentucky that states have an interest in protecting minors who are considering having an abortion. As Breitbart News reported on January 2, Indiana Attorney General Curtis Hill (R) asked the U.S. Supreme Court to uphold a measure signed into law in 2017, but never enacted, that requires parents to be notified when a minor who is granted court approval for an abortion, is about to have the procedure. “Nothing in the U.S. Constitution prohibits Indiana from requiring parental notification when an unemancipated minor is getting an abortion,” Hill said in a press statement. “Even to get a tattoo, a minor in Indiana needs parental permission. Quite simply, parents have rights and responsibilities in the care and upbringing of a child.” The law specifically pertains to minors who have already received an exemption from a juvenile court allowing them to have an abortion without parental permission. Under the law, parental notice would still be required, except when the court indicates the child lives with abusive family members or some other reason that would be against the best interests of the child. “An abortion is a medical procedure that could have implications for a child’s future treatment,” Hill said. “It’s an event that could bear on a child’s emotional needs and mental health, and it’s an event that parents need to know about in order to provide nurturing care and guidance.” The ACLU, however, challenged the law on behalf of Planned Parenthood shortly after it passed and just before it was about to be enacted. ACLU attorney Ken Falk argued the law “would impose an undue burden on the recognized constitutional right of young women to obtain an abortion.” A preliminary injunction against the enforcement of the law by a three-judge panel of the Seventh Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals is still in place and the court declined the state’s petition for a rehearing of the matter by the full court. “It is better to send this dispute on its way to the only institution that can give an authoritative answer,” wrote Judge Frank Easterbrook of the Seventh Circuit, an appointee of President Ronald Reagan. Citing the issue of a “tangled web of case law,” Hill said, “When even the most experienced and distinguished members of the federal judiciary throw up their hands in confused frustration, it is time for our nation’s highest court to issue guidance.” Cameron has been leading and joining other amicus briefs in support of pro-life legislation since he was sworn in as Kentucky’s top law enforcement official. On January 23, Cameron’s office announced the attorney general would be joining Indiana and 16 other states in an amicus brief that asks the U.S. Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals to uphold an Ohio law banning abortions sought because of a pre-natal diagnosis of Down syndrome. The entire Sixth Circuit agreed to rehear the case after a three-judge panel threw out Ohio’s law. “Every life has value, and we cannot allow abortion to pre-determine the characteristics of an entire generation,” Cameron said in a press statement. “The passage of HB 5 last year made it clear that Kentucky will not stand for discriminatory abortions, and we have a duty to assist other states in their defense of similar laws.” Also this month, Cameron led 17 states in filing an amicus brief before the U.S. Supreme Court that supports Indiana in another abortion-related case. The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit ordered Indiana to issue a license to abortion provider Whole Woman’s Health Alliance, after the state initially denied the license. Cameron’s brief stresses that only states can issue licenses to abortion providers, not federal courts. Cameron said in a press statement: States should not be forced by the federal courts to issue state licenses. The Seventh Circuit’s decision endangers our system of federalism and sets a precedent that threatens the sovereignty of states and the safety and well-being of citizens. While our federal courts may determine if the process used by a state to issue or deny a license is constitutional, we do not believe they can order a state agency to license an abortion clinic. Cameron also joined 20 states in an amicus brief before the Supreme Court in June Medical Services, LLC v. Gee, a case that centers on a Louisiana law that requires abortionists to have admitting privileges at nearby hospitals in the event of an emergency or complication that arises from the abortion. The Supreme Court will hear that case in March. “We cannot allow the self-interested motives of abortion providers and facilities to dictate the circumstances under which abortion procedures are performed,” said Cameron in a statement. “If Louisiana’s commonsense law is overturned, it will set a dangerous precedent that allows the very industry that profits from abortions to now regulate abortions and determine what is safe for pregnant women.” Cameron has served as legal counsel to Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) by directing the confirmation process for conservative federal judges, including current Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch. In November, Cameron received the endorsement of President Donald Trump. “A star is born,” Trump said when Cameron appeared with him at a rally in Kentucky just prior to Election Day. https://www.breitbart.com/politics/...-17-states-in-potential-scotus-abortion-case/
Fox Allows Super Bowl Ad With Drag Queens, Won’t Approve Pro-Life Commercial FOX Sports apparently has no problem airing controversial ads during the 2020 Super Bowl — just not a pro-life commercial. According to NBC News, this year’s big game between the Kansas City Chiefs and the San Francisco 49ers will include a commercial featuring drag queens/LGBTQ activists. Meanwhile, pro-life advocates with the new Faces of Choice organization said they have been waiting at least six months for an answer from FOX about their ad. The drag queen ad from Sabra hummus already is stirring up controversy. It features drag queens Kim Chi and Miz Cracker from “RuPaul’s Drag Race.” LGBTQ marketing strategist Bob Witeck celebrated the significance of the ad, telling NBC: “For queer audiences, it is an art form and an ‘outsiders’ language,” Witek said of drag. “Reaching the Super Bowl means taking our language into every home in the nation and millions around the world.” Witeck said the Sabra ad, which could reach around 100 million viewers during the Super Bowl, is indicative of a sea change in the public perception of drag, which he said has been normalized in the mainstream for many years, thanks in large part to the success of the award-winning reality show “RuPaul’s Drag Race.” However, mainstream media companies often do not want to touch ads promoting what should be normal and non-controversial: the right to life for all human beings, including those not yet born. Click here to sign up for pro-life news alerts from LifeNews.com Faces of Choice leaders said they have been trying for more than six months to purchase ad time during the Super Bowl, but FOX Sports has repeatedly ignored them. Their powerful new ad premiered at the March for Life last week, and it featured the stories of more than a dozen people who survived abortions. Lyric Gillett, the 28-year-old founder of Faces of Choice and producer of the ad, said they have a shortened version ready to air during the big game. “Every great human rights movement in history has been anchored in the stories and the faces of its victims,” Gillett said. “That’s what we aim to do; we simply want to tell their forgotten stories and there’s no larger mega-phone than the Super Bowl. After months of correspondence with the Fox network, we are asking for a definitive answer immediately.” She said they provided all the necessary documentation to FOX and answered its legal team’s questions, but the network still did not give her an answer. Video Player 00:00 02:04 This week, her organization and My Faith Votes launched a campaign urging pro-lifers to contact the network and ask for a final decision on the ad. They asked people to email Fox Corp. SVP, Standards and Practices Barbara De Santis, VP, Commercial Clearance Maryana Dezarlo, SVP, Ad Sales Jim Reeder, and EVP, Corporate General Counsel Claudia Teran. The pro-life organizations also began a petition here. If the network refuses to run the spot, Gillett encouraged pro-lifers to shut off the commercials during the Super Bowl and take time to watch the abortion survivors’ stories instead on YouTube. Find the video here. Abortion survivors pose a vital question to abortion activists through the new ad, “Can you look me in the eye and say I should have been aborted?” The abortion survivors featured in the ad are: Dr. Imre Téglásy (1952, Hungary); Paula Page (02/24/54); Miriam “Penny” Hopper (11/29/55); Denisha Workizer (7/11/76); Melissa Ohden (8/29/77); Jennifer Millbourn (9/02/78); Jennifer Callender (7/18/80); Claire Culwell (3/06/88); Hope Hoffman (8/12/91); Josiah Presley (10/07/95); Asiimwe Ronald Williams (9/25/97, Uganda); Dona Marie Mendoza (Philippines); Jaylyn Schoch (8/15/03); and Zechariah Hagan (10/20/13), one of the first abortion pill reversal survivors. Ultimately, Faces of Choice leaders hope their stories will break down the myth of “choice.” “Abortion advocates need to look these survivors in the eye and come to terms with the fact that they are human, that their lives matter, and that choice is more than a word: it’s a person,” Gillett said.

Sam, Thank you for letting us know about this. I stopped watching football including the SuperBowl for the most part about 3 years ago or so. In fact, I can't stand most television at this point especially commercials, many commercials simply disgust me. I feel a little badly for the pro-football athletes who are decent people and the fact that I have given up on watching their sport but I just can't do it. I don't want to be a hypocrite, that's the bottom line for me. I look at what their league does support and I decided that I won't be viewing. I also won't buy Nike, not that I was ever a huge fan of their athletic footwear or clothing but again, I'm done. I could go on and on, maybe I'll have to make my own clothing and footwear soon because I know it is not just the NFL and Nike and the major television networks but those that are strongly taking a side that I don't agree with I don't support.
I am so appalled at the clothing for young people. The young man working at goodwill was wearing a t-shirt with a pentagram on the front. I notice that the Vans clothing/shoes are making most of their clothing to incorporate black and white checkerboard patterns which I wonder is recognition of the masonic age we are living in (black and white checkerboard flooring is an important symbol for freemasonry and illuminati).
