  1. Iran just approved closing the strait of Hormuz, might want to go buy gas

    Not good! I wonder if Iran will close the strait it in some selective way. I mean, will they allow Chinese tankers to pass. I think China gets about 40 percent of its oil from Iran.

    Something else I have not seen discussed anywhere is that which was posted a few days ago on the Military Tube Today channel. They said that in the light of recent obtuse threats to the life of the Ayatollah, he had handed over supreme authority of Iran to the central committee of the IRGC. In other words the country was now effectively being governed by the military.

    Alois Irmlaer wasn't a prophet, nor did he claim to be a prophet. What I've read about him is that one day he was looking at a picture of the Blessed Virgin and had some kind of vision, following which he said he could "see things". He was a Catholic who earned his living as a water diviner. There's no evidence that anything he saw came from Heaven.

    There is a report that the Ayatollah has told the senior clerics (similar to our College of Cardinals) to choose his successor and has given them three names to choose from.

    According to Scott Ritter, the Americans have asked the Chinese to contact the Iranians asking them not to close the strait. China only gets around 10% or 20% which is about 60% of Iranian oil output. China gets the rest of its oil from Russia.

    It was reported on the Military Summary channel that China have asked Oman, in the event of a large scale air attack on Iran, to close its airspace to USA planes. This would make it much more difficult for the US airforce, forcing them to use a narrow corridor for flight paths. All this is speculation but it is conceivable given than Iran is,I would imagine, keen to protect its ally Iran.

    By the way, in Damascus, a bomb attack in a church against Christians. Thanks again to Israel, the USA under Biden and Trump, Britain, Ukraine and Turkey for working together to bring Al Qaeda to power in Syria and oust Assad. Now Christians can be killed " peacefully."

    Trump recently lifted sanctions on Syria after almost 14 years because a "democratic" government has come to power in Syria. As soon as Israeli planes can fly, the USA can take oil, that is blessed by God, as is this slaughter of Christians... You know what's worst, those Christians there are probably descendants of those Jews from Jesus' time, real Semites and that they are the last small "sects" of Christians who are the last in the world to speak the Aramaic language that Christ spoke.

    I feel really angry because the oldest Christian communities are being killed without anyone protecting them, and Western countries that are on paper the cradle of Christian civilization are waging war for atheist Israel against Arab-Muslim countries....And if they could, they would rather bomb those Christians than these Islamic radicals. Christians there are truly left to themselves and God, they are abandoned by everyone else.

    Indeed, you did point out that his alleged prophecies are unapproved. Sometimes on this forum "unapproved" can be interpreted as being investigated by the Church and merely awaiting approval. I was making it clear that Alois Irmlaer's predictions are not in that category.

    Meanwhile, Jason Jones has somehow managed to get some aid into Gaza. He makes it clear that his organisation is helping the Christians there. That didn't sit well with me because Muslim are starving too. Then I recalled reading a while ago that the parish shared whatever they could with non-Christians. Also, gaining access must have required all sorts of guarantees. All credit to Jason for being a true pro-lifer and not just pro-birth.

    The video is a few days old, after the Israeli strike on Iran but before the US strikes. At one stage, talking about the Catholic just war teaching, Fr. Heilman seems to be trying to find wriggle room when he asks about the devil being at the door. It doesn't seem to occur to him that the devil might be inside the house looking out. Here's the video:



    I wish that I had seen the video when it was release because I'm too late for the Sacred Heart novena.

    A great many Jews, even or especially atheist ones, hate Christians most of all. It’s crystal-clear in their Talmud, which they tend to keep quiet, as demonstrated by my spell-checker which utterly fails to bring the word ‘Talmud’ up, even when typed to the penultimate letter! They don’t want to be too explicit about it, because they need their Judeo-Christian puppets to perform. They are now attempting to complete what they started from the time of Christ and the Apostles and which was interrupted by their own hubris in 70AD. Let us pray that their attempt to finally exterminate Christianity from the Holy Lands (apart from being
    a Christo-tourist resort, as a sop for their evangelical friends) will fail again, with the help of Our Lord and His Mother.

    I’m now reading sensible people speculating that, with Trump’s latest (apparently). bizarre manoeuvres, the country standing to face the biggest concrete losses is Israel. Also, Russia has been handed a lot of leverage, saying that they will (continue to?) supply arms and intelligence to Iran, if the US continues to do the same for the Ukraine. What’s good enough for the goose is good enough for the gander.

    In other words, there is still the possibility of ending the wars in the Ukraine and between Israel and Iran. If this occurs, might we see a prospect to end the genocide in Gaza, and the slaughter in Lebanon and Syria?

    I’m probably being far too hopeful. But, with the Help of God…

    What concerns me about people in Israel is the amount of hatred and racism we see on their mainstream media and legacy media. Polls clearly show that they are totally onboard with the Genocide and the forever wars. It is possible for an entire nation to turn to evil Or at least a big majority of them. Two good examples of this would be the island of Haiti were a huge amount of people turned to Satanism. Or the Confederate States were most people supported slavery. God does not bless such goings on. Another good example is the Peoples Republic of China were most people support the Communist Party so they can have the good life.

    I think it is like a set of scales, when enough people in a Nation turn to evil it swings the scale of the whole to evil. Not only this but evil, like goodness is not static. They keep getting more and more and more evil. This is what has happened with Israel. They are on a rapid descent course into hell.
    At present they must be the most disliked Nation on planet Earth. Is it any wonder?

    Unfortunately true.

    Polls indicate that 82% of the Jewish Israeli population completely agree with the ethnic cleansing of Gaza.

    50% agree that Gaza babies should be killed because they are “tomorrow’s terrorists”.

    Bad council and bad Mass? Is this referring to Vatican II or the Synod of Synodality? The current novus ordo or some terrible mutation yet to be dropped? At this point, I am so confused, and it doesn't help matters that it is a far distance to the nearest Church with a Latin Mass. All this time, I thought that although God preferred the Latin Mass that Novus Ordo was valid because of some Eucharistic miracles in the last 60 years.... This scares me....

    I think that a respectful NO, with the proper words of Consecration, is fine. However, the looseness of its structure leaves it more open for abuses. It passes, but it’s second-rate. What is the official Church doing with its imposition of the second-rate for the worship of God? This is not the fault of the laity whose heritage was denied them by the senior clerics. They’re the ones that should be scared. The same applies to their Councils and Synods.
