Trump's Biggest Economic Concern!

Listening to the Wall Street wizards talk about how wonderful the economy is booming, right now, and how this all seems to make Trump's reelection prospects look pretty good, it seems like the President needn't worry about the coming election!   Well guess again, folks!!!

You may have noticed that the President has some enemies, especially in Washington!!!   They don't like him meddling in their Socialist utopian "Deep State", and they have tried every dirty trick they can think of to run him out of town,...….. except one!!!

Back when George Bush "Senior" (as I like to refer to, George H.W.) was running for reelection, the Federal Reserve decided to raise the Interest Rates high enough to drive the economy into a recession!!!  There was plenty of complaining from the financial pundits that it was an unnecessary move to raise the rates, but to no avail!!!  Anyway, the state of the economy, at election time was the deciding factor in getting Bush to retire, and make room for the Clintons to move into the White House!!!  I don't suppose this was the result  of any Leftist shenanigans, by the "squeaky-clean" Clinton election machine, but I wonder if they were practicing for some Trump-like President that they couldn't otherwise get un-elected!!!

But, don't be surprised if  it happens all over again!  (I think it was the philosopher, George Santayana, who said, "those who do not remember the past are condemned to repeat it!")  The Fed has been fairly consistent in helping Democratic Presidents, and less so with Republican Presidents   at election time!  It just seems a bit "coincidental" to me!!!

2020 seems set for an endless ride of record setting financial windfalls, as long as no one tries to meddle with the way things are going: someone who might prefer the European "One-World" Socialist system, which is struggling, right now, and could benefit from an American recession sending business their way!!!  Well, as the President is fond of saying, "we'll see"!!!

But, by the time "we will see", will it be too late???   Perhaps, if Trump pulls it out, anyway, he should at least threaten to do what Abraham Lincoln did, by nationalizing the Fed back into the federal government!!!  I don't say it should be kept there, but the possibility should be ever present in the minds of the Directors!!!  Perhaps then they will be less willing to use the Fed. as a political weapon!!!

Should We Worry About North Korea's Plan To Give America A "Christmas Present"???

In the Lord, certainly not!!!  But how about in the natural???  I know God will provide for His people, but perhaps we may go through some tough times first, I suppose as a form of refining the "dross" out of us, in preparation for whatever is to follow!!!

North Korea is said to be planning some kind of "Christmas Present" for us, and they have been reputed to be developing some intercontinental missile technology, that can carry a missile as far as Washington, D.C.!   But it fails to reenter the atmosphere, without blow

ing up, so it can not destroy anything on the ground! 

But, I've heard Pat Robertson, on the 700 club, talk about the threat of an "Electro-Magnetic Pulse", which theoretically can wipe out our entire "electric grid",  by exploding a single nuclear device in the atmosphere above Chicago, or some other centrally located American city!!!  This would not only turn out the lights, all over  the country, but also turn off refrigerators, and cut off any electric heating in Winter, and air conditioning in the summer!!!  Food distribution to our grocery stores would be severely impaired, and banking and other financial transactions would be shut down for God only knows how long!!!   In todays' environment, that would cause panic around the country, especially with children;  who knows how long a child can survive without television, or computer games!!!

Since I am writing this at 2:00 p.m., on Christmas Eve., and North Korea is supposed to be ten hours ahead of us, I  guess we should know what dastardly "gift" they have in store for us, at any time now!  The suspense is truly agonizing for me!!!

 Hmmmmmmmmm!  Should I be afraid of Kim Jung Un, or trust in the Lord???   I wonder which is more powerful???  Duh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

UPDATE:  12/28/2019--

We seem to have survived through Christmas, despite the concerns of North Korea['s "Christmas Gift"!  But, I heard someone speculate that perhaps the North Koreans were thinking in terms of the Orthodox Christmas, which I understand comes sometime next week!!!  So it may be too soon for us to let out our collective breath, for that matter, we should never let our guard down with such a lunatic regime!!! 

We realize that such a supposed attack would be much more devastating for them,  than for us, after the necessary retaliation, but the trouble is, do they  realize it???  I doubt not that Kim, and his lackeys, believe they can sit out a nuclear attack in their shelters, and come out afterwards...,in about 500 years, after the radiation diminishes!!! 

How are we expected to reason with buffoons like this!!!???

So, Where Does The Impeachment Process Go From Here???

I have frequently written that I am no modern day Prophet, nor do I dabble in Satanic arts, so I have no Crystal Ball, or such!   But, the news media traditionally plays the game of future predictions at the end of each year, based upon their "best guess" understanding of what current events hold for us in the coming year.  Their past record of accurate predictions is so poor that I feel safe in offering my best guesses as to where the President's Impeachment process is going to go, over the next year!  My predictions will  not be based upon my superior wisdom (which I acknowledge is too inferior for such vanity), but the whole Impeachment process smells so bad that I think I can tell where it's going, just by following the stink of Democratic chicanery!!!

Currently the recently passed Articles of Impeachment were stuck under Nancy  Pelosi's considerable behind, where it festers until some common sense reality shall hopefully bring her to her senses!!!  I am not optimistic that she will respond to any common sense logic any time soon!!!  Therefor, the Articles will not likely be passed on to the Senate, any time soon!  If she continues to stall the President's trial, which is all but certain to bring acquittal to the President, she retains the capacity to claim that the Democratic controlled House has "Impeached the President", which the Democrats will shout ad nauseum throughout their reelection campaigns, without having to add the caveat that the Senate acquitted the President almost immediately, once the trial was begun!!!  This is perhaps the only way they can try to justify wasting so much time accomplishing virtually nothing, when there are so many issues that need to be addressed!!!

The presumption here is that the trial can not begin until the Articles are formally sent from the House to the Senate!  But, there are two schools of thought, on this issue!   This is the first, but the second is that the Constitution doesn't specify that this is true, so the Senate can begin the trial without the Articles ever having been received from the house!  It's notable that the first position was raised when the Harvard University Professor, who testified before the House that the President should be impeached, stated publicy that the President was not actually impeached until the Articles were actually received!!!

Here's where I begin to smell a rat, in this case out of Cambridge Massachusetts, where a whole nest of rats reside!!!  The fact that this liberal professor jumped up to make this point so readily, seems to suggest that the Liberals are hoping that the Senate will take the challenge, and begin the trial anyway!!!  Then they plan to sue in the courts, probably in some very liberal federal court system, like the ninth district, in San Francisco, where they can expect an almost certain rubber stamp on whatever position they take!   They will surely lose any appeal, even if it takes a Supreme Court challenge to get it!!!  But that may take 2 years to drag the process out!  In the mean time, the Democrats hope to get reelected to control the house, again, so they can redo the Impeachment for another wasted four years, until they can get Trump removed. one way, or another.  This way they can at least stimey his efforts to "drain the swamp" until he is out of office!!!

This is why I feel safe in predicting this pattern!  Rats are famous for accumulating around filth, and the Democrats have demonstrated a sick desire to do the same!!!  That's why I think I am safe in making these predictions!!!  Rats behave in fairly predictable  manners, and lately, so do the Democrats!!!

Someone Once Said Something About, "What Does It Profit A Man, If He Gains The Whole World,"...

I guess most believers can finish that sentence!!!  But, I wonder if a guy named Mark Galli remembers those words?

Years ago, I used to read a magazine called "Christianity Today", which was one of the few tabloids that could be counted on to express the Evangelical view well, in the modern society.   As a newly "Born Again" Christian, it was crucial for me to understand how I should shape my own opinions, in the midst of an overwhelmingly sin-obsessed world!!!  Once I had read the Bible through, a few times, and begun to memorize a few scriptures, like the one atop this post, and learned how to consistently apply them to my own life, I gradually forgot about reading "Christianity Today", as I intentionally decided to stop reading "Time", and "Newsweek", because I didn't approve of their political bias, which was so blatantly obvious. 

Perhaps I am partly to blame for the gross desertion of that magazine's editorial perspective, because I did not continue to support it financially (not intentionally, but simply because it was no longer important to me!!! ) I reached a point where I knew my own Biblical perspective, consistent with the Bible, and did not need extra-Biblical sources to shape my opinions!!!   Perhaps "Christianity Today" has fallen on hard financial times, because of the same attitude of other Christians approaching it from the same perspective;  it was useful initially, but, less so as I matured in the Lord!!!

At  any rate, whether the magazine hired less sincere writers as their profits declined, or whether true-believing writers simply began to question their faith, what we have today is no longer a magazine that represents the Biblical perspective of the Evangelical community!!!  It is truly a shame that someone named Mark Galli, the magazine's editor-in -chief, can make such an idiotic statement in the magazine, like he did, when he wrote that President Trump should be removed from office, after being impeached!!!

I am not particularly enamored by the President's personality!  I hope he is a "Born Again" Christian, but it is not up to me to judge him, whether he is, or is not!!!   That's between himself and the Lord!!!  But, as long as he behaves himself morally while in office, and most importantly, as long as he continues to support issues that are extremely important to the Evangelical Christian community, and continues to listen to the many Christian counselors he has surrounded himself with, I will continue to support him, regardless of the slander that others dish out to him!!!  When he stops all this, I will also stop supporting him!  But I will not call for his Impeachment, unless it is clear that he has committed an Impeachable offense, which he has not been charged with, yet, to any provable degree!!!   When he does, I will be one of the first to admit it, and to call for his resignation (like Nixon), before threatening him with Impeachment!! 

The Democrats should have approached him in this manner, but their hatred of him is not because he has committed an Impeachable offense, but because he is determined to undo the "Deep State" in the federal bureaucracy, which they have worked so hard to create, subtly, for so long!!!  They want to drive us into the European "One-World" Socialist system of government, and Trump is trying to defeat their efforts to do so!!!   To them, this is the worst form of treason, though the Constitution calls what they are doing to be the real treason!!!

As for Mr. Galli, he has been reputed to be leaving his job at "Christianity Today" in early January, of next year!!!  I can only wonder if he is being forced out, because of his un-Biblical perspective, and made his statement as a disgruntled employee who wished to damage the magazine's reputation, or is he simply trying to demonstrate that he is really anti-Trump, to neutralize any reluctance to hire him, for another position with a liberal magazine, or newspaper, at a fat salary!!!

Again, I say, "What does it profit...!!!"

Democrats Don't Want An Impeachment Trial, They want To Keep Persecuting The President!!!

It's not about prosecution, it's all about persecution!!!  House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is now threatening to sit on the Impeachment articles, that the House just voted on, and not send them on to the Senate for a trial, because she knows there is no substance to the charges and the Senate would acquit the President, in short order!!!  Therefor, it would be more deceptively valuable to the Democrats to avoid the trial, to bluster about how the House Impeached the President, as if that constitutes conviction of the charges, rather than have to explain why they charged him with crimes they could not prove in a trial!!!

Is there no end to this demagogic chicanery???  Is there absolutely no sense of honesty, or decency in the Democratic Party???  One Democratic Representative, from a swing state, apparently realized how desperately weak their case for impeachment was, and how poor their legislative record was, while sitting in control of the House, and decided to jump ship, and join the Republican Party, before the voters take vengeance upon the irresponsible Democrats, and start to clean the House, next year!!!  I guess this brings new meaning to the term, "Housecleaning", doesn't it?  How about "F.B.I. cleaning", and "D.O.J. cleaning", while we are at it?   Or, wholesale "Deep State cleaning"???   Would that we could just snap our fingers, and make them all disappear!!!  But, the Lord could do something like that, and He just might if these belligerent traitors don't repent soon!!!  He is well known for opening up the ground where unrepentant sinners are standing, and swallowing them up, in one swoop!!!   Are you listening, Adam Schiff!!! 

An interesting thought was expressed on FOX NEWS today.  Sol Weisenburg was interviewed, along with Ken Starr, the Special Prosecutor for Bill Clinton's Impeachment trial.  It was his opinion that the Constitution  allowed the Senate to proceed with the trial, even if the Speaker of the House continues to withhold  the articles of Impeachment, from the Senate!  So, the Senate could hold the trial, calling the witnesses they wish to have testify, and fully acquit the President of all charges, without the Democrats being present!!!   Talk about, "turn about is fair play"!!!  This would be a fitting return for all the House Democrats chicanery!!!

Democrats Are Applying Communist Doctrine To Their Impeachment Trial Proceedings!!!

There are obvious doctrinal elements of the Democrats' approach to the Impeachment trial that remarkably resemble blatant Communist propaganda techniques.  These techniques were used to the extreme, first in Nazi Germany, and then by Russian propagandists, and still are!!!  These two countries hate being compared to each other because of their World War II conflict, which was simply a matter of a greedy, hegemonistic territorial dispute, and was not a difference of political views, as both sides endlessly try to protest!!!  Both countries were created by the dogmatic principles of Marxism, of which deceitful propaganda techniques are considered to be of paramount importance!  Two principles, which amount to the same basic rule, are used ad nauseum in their ceaseless efforts to force the public to accept their blatant lies, no matter how absurd the logic, nor how false the reasoning!!!

First, they go to great lengths to keep repeating their lies, over and over, endlessly, regardless of how absurd they sound; and second, they go to even greater lengths to silence any dissenting views to the contrary of their lies!!!   We saw these techniques used repeatedly in the Impeachment hearings, in both the Intelligence, and Judicciary Commitees of the House of Representatives!   The majority Democrats desperately closed off any fair Republican rebuttal to their outrageous lies, for fear that the public might actually recognize the truth, which would be catastrophic to their illogical Impeachment charges!!!  Now, they are trying to continue the trend in any Senate trial, which they are afraid might expose their lies, so they are calling for more witnesses to supposedly strengthen their arguments, against any Republican challenges to their absurd logic!

It seems clear to me that Senator Graham's preference for calling an immediate vote to dismiss the trial, without calling any witnesses, would be the most painless way of ending this excruciating process, that has completely turned off the American viewing public!!!   The Republicans could call many witnesses to refute the Democrats' lies, but they don't need to in order to convince those who have already realized the fallacy of the Democrats' logic!  And if they did call their witnesses, they would have to allow the Democrats to call more of their "witnesses" to continue to endlessly expound their lies, all the more!!!  The American viewing public has grown sick and tired of this charade, and the best thing is just to put a quick end to it all, since there is no chance of the President being convicted in the Republican-controlled Senate!!!

Message to the Democrats:  Sit down, and shut up!!!  We are tired of you idiots, with your endless lies!!!

The Difference Between "Right Wing" Conservatism, and Righteous Conservatism!!!

I am not pompous, or arrogant, or vain enough to proclaim my own righteousness!!!  If there is any righteousness in what I write, it is entirely inspired by God, and I give Him all the glory; I can only write what I am inspired by Him to write!  While I agree with much of what the other Conservative press, and television pundits have to say, especially about the horrendous state of American politics, I don't expect them to necessarily agree with everything I write!  I take my direction from the Lord, and when I am right, He deserves all the glory, and when I am wrong, it's obviously my fault, I must have allowed my human frailty to get the better of me, and missed whatever God was telling me!!!

But, this is totally different from the other conservative media pundits!  They are smart enough to claim their own wisdom as their inspiration, whether they acknowledge God as inspiring them, or not!   I recognize that I need God's wisdom to try and discern the truth from what I read, and hear!!!

Consequently, I am less afraid to speak out on what I believe is blatant evil, and assign it to it's original source, which is Satan, even if the majority of my readers may dismiss me as a "looney, Christian nut-case", who is stupid enough to believe that a 2500-year-old prophecy may be about to be fulfilled!!!   As I have explained before, this prophecy was given to the prophet Ezekiel, in chapters 38,and 39, with the explanation that it was to be fulfilled in the very distant future, at a time which God referred to as, "the last days"!!!  I feel there is plenty of evidence today, in the world around us, to suggest we are entering that era, based upon the descriptions of"the last days" of many Biblical writers! 

I don't expect everyone who reads my blog to agree with me, but my purpose is merely to expose as many people as I can to the possibility that my beliefs may be correct, and let them decide for themselves!   I believe that the world is presently undergoing the most profound Satanic delusion in history, as the Devil is trying to get the European Commonwealth to form his concept of a "One-World" Socialist government, which he will eventually use to allow his "Antichrist" to take absolute dictatorial control over, to use it to create the most evil holocaust against the Christians, and Jews that are living at that time!!!  Not only that, but the Bible clearly states that all those who participate in it's economic system (which will  require a "mark of the beast" on their hand, probably for computer identification) will be thrown into Hell when they die!!!  The British have had enough of this system, already, and they have voted to get out of it (the so-called "Brexit" plan).  They don't like Socialism's plan to make richer countries, like Britain, and America, pay for the expenses of the poorer nations that join the system!!!

In America, today, we have many people who are blindly trying to promote this system, and we commonly refer to them as "Globalists", but it's the same thing.  Many of the largest corporations on "Wall Street" are run by these devotees, and the Democratic party is promoting it's values, either because they believe in the concept, themselves, or because they get huge contributions from the giant corporations, to their reelection funds!!!    Either way, they are against the American Constitution, and wish to abolish it, because America is too wealthy, and too powerful to compete against their plans for world domination, and our freedoms conflict with Socialism's dictatorial plans!  Therefore, America must be destroyed, one way or another, and we are most vulnerable through our runaway, inflationary debt!!!  That is why the Democrats are all proposing programs that will cost trillions of dollars to implement, destroying our economy when the dollar collapses, and we can't pay off our debts!!!

I do hope some of my readers agree with my views, because we will need millions to pray for God's mercy to protect us from what these "Globalists" have in mind for us all!!!  If you thought slavery was abolished in America, wait till you see what these people have in mind, not only for us, but for the whole world!!!

When The Left Feels Vulnerable, They Accuse The Conservatives Of The Same Thing!!!

I guess you'd call this "Strategic Projectionism"!  It's as if they feel that accusing the opposition of the very thing they are guilty of will convince their constituents of the triviality of their offense!!! This is the whole basis of the Impeachment investigation, an obvious attempt to deflect criticism away from the real collusion with the "Russians", when Hillary Clinton's campaign paid for a "dirty" dossier filled with Russian disinformation lies about Trump, and his campaign officials, and the F.B.I. used this "dossier"as the "legal" basis for the FISA warrants to spy on Trump's campaign officials, illegally!!!

Now we have a Democratic Congresswoman who has the temerity to accuse the Majority Leader of the Senate of being unfairly biased for the President, before the Senate Impeachment trial begins, and therefore he must recuse himself!!!  As if the Democrats in the House were not biased against the President before they charged him with ridiculously untrue impeachable offenses!  The only true offense he had committed in their eyes, boiled down to, "we don't like him!!!"  I don't find that listed in the Constitution as an impeachable offense!!!  Plus, the very people who are responsible for convincing the Senators of the President's innocence, before his trial, are the deceitful Democrats in the House who brought these charges against him, without evidence of a crime!!!

I suppose they would like all the Republicans in the Senate to recuse themselves, as well!  That's the only way they could get the Senate to convict the President, by removing all the Republicans!!!  These Democrats are corrupt to the core, and they keep getting elected, God  only knows how!!!

God help us, if the Democrats should somehow retain control of the House after the 2020 election!!!  They have already vowed to bring another impeachment trial against the President, if he is reelected, which they have all but guaranteed by their three-year persecution procedure!!!  It seems unimaginable that we should be subjected to another round of inaction in the House, after years of dereliction of service, while these absurd charges  resound from the walls of the most incompetent chamber of the Congress, in American history!!!  And the Democrats think they are doing the country good, by doing so!!!   Hmmmmm.........., or do they????????????

The Very Desperation Of The Leftist Demagogues Trying To Impeach Trump Exposes Their True Conspiracy!!!

I don't much care that I have no reputation for credibility, after all I seem to be a "looney Christian" who is crazy enough to believe that a "so-called" prophecy, of some 2500 years ago may be about to be fulfilled!  No one who wishes to be taken seriously, would stand by such  a ridiculous opinion, or that the Democrats' desperate efforts to impeach Trump was indicative of an international effort to legitimize the European "One-World" Socialist government movement, by destroying the best competitor to their system, America's free market economy, and Democratic Republic!!!

I don't much care, because I believe in the God that made the Prophecy, and said it was for, "the last days"!  There is enough spiritual evidence to suggest that we are entering that period, but we won't know for sure until some rather chaotic events take place!  By that time, no one will care to praise me for being right, we will all be too concerned about survival!!!  But, the very people who are the most skeptical, now, will be the most unprepared to face the difficulties to come!!!

The Bible makes it clear that the concept of a "Globalist" economic system which seems to be well intended as a concept,  will be corrupted for evil purposes, and those who foolishly participate in it will end up vacationing in the warm climates of Hell, for an eternity!!! If what I believe is true, then we are not talking about some debatable philosophical concept, the choice will either send millions to Hell, or not!!!

Guess where I suspect the Democrats involved in the impeachment debacle are likely to hold their Party Caucuses of the not too distant future???  Parties usually like to meet in warm climates, and this location  seems to be ideally suited for their personalities!!!  I expect that they will receive glowing recommendations from earlier tenants, from the ranks of the F.B.I. ,  such as Comey, McCabe, Strock, Page, et. al.!!!

I'm Tired Of Waiting For These Endless Investigations, Already!!!

I understand that the FISA investigation of the D.O.J. Inspector General was intentionally limited in scope, yet it still took longer than anticipated, and is a big disappointment at it's apparent inability to draw obvious conclusions as to who is guilty of what!!!   The only strong conclusion we can draw from this report is that the so-called "Deep State" we knew was running the illegal activities of the F.B.I. is apparently deeper entrenched in the middle and lower levels of the bureaucracy than we thought!!!

The I.G. found it necessary to interview loyal American agents, as well as "Deep Staters" to find out what went on, which I'm sure diluted the strength of his conclusions!!!  When he must report on both sides of his evidence, it's understandably difficult to draw accurate conclusions!

But, I'm sure tired of waiting for all these investigations to finally come to the obvious conclusions, and prosecute the guilty parties, so that others who might consider copying them, in the future, will reconsider!!!  We must either bring swift and strong retribution upon them, or others will surely try it again!!!  ( I hear that Hillary is actually considering running for President, again!!!  She should run her campaign from jail, in my opinion!!!)

Attorney General William Barr, and Special Counsel Durham will eventually get to the bottom of it all, but that may take the better part of next year, with the election soon there after!  How the one will effect the other, is anybody's guess!!!

I'm sure the "Deep State" is trying to drag this out as long as possible, in the false hope that the Democrats will not only be reelected to control the House, but will pick up the Senate, and the Presidency, as well!!  I don't see much realistic hope of any of that, but we are not wrestling against flesh and blood, but against, "spiritual wickedness  in  high places" (the "Deep Staters"), and they are controlled by the second most powerful force in the universe (namely, Satan), and the most powerful force (God) will not  over rule him, unless enough of us petition Him, prayerfully, to do so!!!   So, how many does it take?  I don't know!!!  So, you ,and I had  better help!!!

UPDATE:  12/12/2019--

Yesterday, I heard some Congresswoman i have never heard of say (in her great wisdom!!!), that the Democrats are willing to do the impeachment cr*p all over again, should President Trump be reelected, in 2020!!!   Her presumption was that the Democrats would certainly retain control of the House, which I don't agree is a foregone conclusion!   But, it shows the level of arrogant self-centered will of these idiots, to think they will be rewarded for doing nothing in their first term controlling the House, except for this impeachment farce!  For starters, there are 31 Democrats that were elected in states that Trump won as President, in 2018!  Do they really believe that he wiil lose in 2020, and that they will be reelected???  Somebody should tell these idiots to. "get a life!!!"

I Am Ashamed To Be Living In What Amounts To The "Divided Socialist States Of America"!!!

We witnessed yesterday, at the Impeachment  Inquiry, as it flips it's venue from the Intelligence Committee (which is in itself an embarrassment to the American people, to have a compulsive liar, and intentional propagandist, like Adam Schiff, presiding over what used to be an august body of the Congress), to the Judiciary committee, where we witness the blatant example of what our nation's Academia has degenerated into, over the past several generations!!!

 It's a crying shame that some of our best reputed Colleges, and Universities, have given themselves over to the international "Fabian Socialist" movement, descended from the 19th century British philosophy, and continue to spout Leftist dogma as if it were absolute truth!!!  It's incomprehensible to me that an institution supposedly promoting "higher education" could actually hire blithering idiots of the quality of the "professors" that testified before the Judiciary Committee yesterday (with apologies to the only qualified speaker, Jonathan Turley, of George Washington University)!!!  I do not fault the professors, for there will always be such lunacy graduating from college, because their intelligence is far greater than their understanding!!!  But, it is unconscionable in the extreme to actually hire these graduate-buffoons to disseminate their lunacy upon the virgin minds of our innocent children, with the implied acceptance, and brand of excellence of the University that hired them!!!

It's clear that many of our best Colleges, and Universities have been taken over by dedicated Socialists, who want to shut off other forms of dialogue, by hiring an overwhelming Leftist faculty, and promoting antagonism to the concept of free speech, to be of the highest form of integrity!!!   Like I said, I do not blame the individual Leftist professors, nor even the equally misguided Leftist faculty members who hire them, because of their own perverse biases!!!  The real people to blame are the Directors who originally hired those eventual Leftist faculty members, some of whom probably believed that it was providing "diversity" of intellectual thought to their campus!!!

 But, the "Romper Room" thinking that has to have preceded their decisions to do so, is inexcusable!!!  It doesn't take an abundance of wisdom to find the intellectual flaws in Socialism, and the fact that so many institutions of "higher learning" seem to be incapable of recognizing this fact, makes them unworthy of their government financial support!!!  They should immediately be defunded of all government grants, and the concept of government guaranteed loans should be stopped, not to mention the ridiculous Leftist platform of many Democratic candidates, to have the government fund free College education for all!!!  There is no better way to emasculate the excellence of a College degree than to make it non-competitive, by making the tuition free to all students, at any institution!!!  A college education really meant something up until World War II . when people had to work to pay off their tuition, as they studied.  But, the need to lure military enlistment created the "G. I. Bill", and successive wars made it a socially accepted reality.  It should have been stopped after each war ended, but Congress seems to be unable to stop wasteful spending that is popular.

Not only do Colleges no longer have to compete for reputations of excellence, but the various applying students no longer have to strenuously compete to demonstrate excellence of aptitude, because there are too many schools desperate to pay their bills by accepting students who have not demonstrated that aptitude, because they have gotten easily obtained, government guaranteed loans!!!  If we stop the easy, no-risk loan availability, we will force the schools to return to a concern for the academic excellence of the past, and stop graduating idiots like Congress calls to validate their absurd impeachment proceedings!!!  In the process, the rate of tuition growth, overall, will slow, and even reverse, as schools will begin to strenuously compete for earned income from non-governmental sources, based on their reputations of real excellence, not the excellence of previous generations!!!

There Is A Precedent For Invading Mexico!!! How Long Must We Wait???

In 1916, President Woodrow Wilson ordered troops into Mexico, to hunt down the Mexican bandit, Pancho Villa, who had left his Revolutionary traits behind as he had invaded previously the American town of Columbus, New Mexico!  His goal was reputedly to steal food, guns, and horses from the town, after his incompetent intelligence reported that the local Army outpost contained only 35 soldiers, when it actually was staffed with 135 soldiers!  The Americans fought him to a standstill, with machine guns, and their cavalry chased them into Mexico, with Wilson's approval!!!

The point is that when a Mexican group of bandits becomes so brazen that they prey upon Americans, it behooves the President to be ready to send troops into Mexico, to put an end to the source of the banditry, even if it means attacking two competing bandit groups simultaneously!!!

Today, we have at least two bandit Cartels that are fighting for control of northern Mexico, while they continue to ship dangerous narcotic drugs across our border, with impunity!!!  Not only are some of these drugs killing our children, but American citizens traveling in Mexico are being targeted by the cartels in their turf battles!!!  To me, it makes little difference whether the killing of America women and children, in an S.U.V., was a mistake, the fact that they were taken out as "possible" rival cartel members, just in case, is intolerable!!!

This kind of brazen lawlessness, will at some point spread physically across our porous border!  And I wonder if the so-called "Sanctuary Movement" is not funded directly by cartel money going directly  to our corrupt local Democrat politicians, in order to protect cartel members from prosecution in the U.S.A.!!!  They are already pushing the "legalization"of Marijuana, how long till they contrive a reason to legalize the so-called "hard drugs"???  Talk about a "slippery slope"; when you protect the lawlessness of petty criminals, it is only a matter of time before you protect all criminals!!!

The only solution is not the reputed defense of the Mexican President, who said he, "preferred the approach of 'hugs for thugs'"!!!
If  Mexico can't, or won't, clean up their cartel  mess, at some point we may have to, before it spreads across the border!!!  In the process we may put an end to the central American illegal immigration deluge, which is informally regulated by these cartels!!!

I Grieve For America's Lost Values!!!

Never before in the history of the United States has there been such an ideological division between the respective ruling parties!!!  There have been deep divisions, such as the disagreement on the morality of slavery, which led up to the Civil War!  But, even then, the basis for the disagreement was for the moral value of living morally in this country.  One side thought slavery was appropriate, not because it was moral, but because the southern states were economically dependent upon the cheap labor of slavery.  The whole issue was about the moral aspect of it, on one side, and the risk of collapsing the southern states' economy, if it were to be abolished.  But, right or wrong, the issue boiled down to the question of the best way to preserve the perceived freedoms of America's rule of law!

Today, we can not say the same thing about our party divisions!  On one hand, we have a party that wants to preserve our Constitutional values, while on the other hand we have a party that stands against Constitutional values, and wishes to cleverly, and even blatantly manipulate those values into something not contained in the Constitution!!!   I don't see how the Democrats, and other Socialists, can say that they are for upholding our Constitution (which their Congress men, and women have taken an oath to."preserve,  protect, and  defend") while at the same time they try to manipulate it's values to mean something other than what is actually written in it!!!  By their efforts to do so, it seems obvious to me that they really hate the Constitution,  and consider it an impediment to their real desire, which I have previously stated that I believe it is to gain power so they can force us to abolish the Constitution, and force us into joining the European "One-World" Socialist government, being developed by the Common Market, today!!!

There is a desperation to their efforts, that causes them to be reckless in their efforts to force there way into power, with the illegal immigration, that makes it easy to hire illegals to vote for their party's candidates, with small bribery, and the help of providing driver's licenses to illegals, so they can appear to be legal voters, since they recognize they can not win, without cheating!!!  It's a typical case of them believing that "the end justifies the means", which they rationalize because they honestly must believe that the "One-World" government is the last best hope for true "peace", and "prosperity" for all mankind!!!

 I don't believe anyone can rationalize this and still be an honest, Bible believing Christians!  Yet I believe that many of the people they have duped into agreeing with them, honestly believe they are such!!!  There is a force in the world that relies upon "strong delusion" to sway opinion in it's favor, and the source for this is Satanic, at it's core!!!  Yes, even Christians (whose hearts are well meaning, but they have not examined the consequences of supporting these evil Democratic values) can be duped into supporting these evil values!!!   Many have been traditional Democrats for generations, and simply march lock-step with the party line, without considering that this is a time of peril that has never existed in America before!!!

 And the Mainstream Media, which has been so trustworthy until recently, has now been taken over completely by leftist propagandists, who exploit the traditional trust many have held over the years, and blindly view with an unsuspecting sense that they are hearing the truth, which they are no longer!!!

The politics of the moment may actually destroy America as we know it, and only a tremendous Holy Ghost revival, can turn this around!!!   But, God will not send His revival upon us, unless there are enough of us who obediently pray for Him to do so!!!   So, how many of us constitute "enough"???  Only God knows!!!

 So we all must pray fervently for His mercy, as we, "wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against spiritual wickedness in high places!!!"  The Democratic Party is the main  source of evil, in this country!!!

Chinese Belligerence, Vs. Hong Kong's Desperation!!!

I watch the events unfolding in Hong Kong, and I am deeply troubled by the appearances of what might come to pass!  China obviously feels that they have a right to annex Hong Kong, according to their original agreement with Britain, which leased Hong Kong for 100 years, in the late 19th century!  Legally, they are within their rights to expect to reacquire Hong Kong, without interference from America, or anyone else!!!  But, the complicating factor is the regime change in China, after World War II, which placed China under one of the most brutal Communist governments the world has ever seen!!!

Now that regime wants to implement the arrangement negotiated between Britain, and the old Chinese government, when the original agreement could never have anticipated the threat to the freedom of the people of Hong Kong, that they now face!!!  After 100 years of peaceful rule under the British Colonial government, the people of Hong Kong now face the encroaching Chinese annexation, and a total end to the freedoms they have become used to!!!  One can  only sympathize with them, but to impose international freedoms upon the Chinese government, as a condition of their taking control of Hong Kong, which was assumed to be unnecessary, when the original agreement was signed, would be seen as a violation of accepted International Law, today!   To expect other countries to agree with that, such as the United Nations, which is overwhelmingly hostile to basic freedoms around the world, is absurd!!!

Unfotunately, the people of Hong Kong are so desperate for their salvation, that they probably hope the bill passed through Congress recently, and signed into law, by President Trump, is merely the first step in the eventual annexation of Hong Kong, by America!!!  This hope, which may sound good, in theory, is entirely unrealistic, in present day reality!!!  When Britain negotiated the lease with China, it was viewed as giving Britain  free use of worthless Chinese territory, for what was probably a substantial fee, at that time, to a very poor Chinese government!   Things have changed dramatically, over the past 100 years!!!  Not only has China developed economically, but militarily into one of the top powers of the world!!!

 But, Hong Kong has developed into one of the financial capitals of  the entire world, and China is right to lust after their financial power, assuming it will be maintained after China annexes the whole island!!!  But, the people of Hong Kong realize that their prosperity is inexorably tied to the peoples' freedom, and that no communist country could be expected to allow those freedoms to exist in part of their country, while the rest is under such basic slavery conditions!!!  One side would have to be changed,  and the people of Hong Kong know which one that would be!!!  China could not allow those freedoms, without it infecting the rest of the country, and their ideological bias could never allow that!!!

So, what is the answer???  It would be simple for America to move in and annex Hong Kong, like the Russians did in Crimea, but it would be even simpler for China to annihilate America, with their nuclear missile technology, and they are clearly not above that!!!

In the mean time, prayer for the Hong Kong people is the only hope I can see!  This crisis is not only too big for me to figure out, it is apparently too big for mankind to figure out, except for the one Man, who is also the Son of God!!!

How Much More Turmoil Will Iran Endure???

Two days ago, I described Iran as a boiling pot, about to boil over, between the difficulty of dealing with the economic trials brought about by President Trump's sanctions, and the domestic rioting of their people, who are fed up with the ruling Mullahs continuing to fund various terror wars globally, while raising gasoline prices locally (by 50%) in order to pay for the wars!!!  The economic pressure is so great that one should reasonably expect them to cave into it all, and come to the negotiating table, as President Trump intends, to negotiate an end to their funding terrorism, and their efforts to develop a nuclear missile system that they have vowed to use against Israel, first, and America second!!!

But, Iran's Mullahs can not bring themselves to knuckle under to American pressure, even when the domestic  turmoil is great enough to threaten the existence of their regime!   Now, it even extends to their neighbor, Iraq, which had welcomed their essential takeover, after the Desert Storm war, in which American forces took out the Saddam Hussein forces, leaving a power vacuum in a country filled with Shiite Muslims who held to virtually identical Muslim values as Iran held!

I don't know why the Iraqi people are rioting against their pro-Iranian government, perhaps the raising of gas prices extends to Iraq, as well.   But, the bottom line is the increased pressure on Iran forces the Mullahs to realize they must do something to redirect the people's anger away from themselves, and that usually stimulates some external military action!  This time, a drone attack against some western oil tanker, may not be enough to focus domestic attention away from local unrest!

But, as I've written before, Iran foolishly believes they have another option!!!  The Bible clearly prophecied, in Ezekiel: 38, and 39, that Iran would begin the "Gog/Magog" Middle-East invasion at Russia's behest,  attacking their hated foe, Israel, and I think this might be their way of deflecting domestic criticism, while fulfilling their desire to recreate the Persian Empire, which included the conquered state of Israel, thousands of years ago!   I can't imagine them waiting much longer to begin this foolish invasion, that God has prophcied will seem to be a threat to Israel's existence, until God miraculously turns it into a rout of the invasion forces and a total victory for Israel!!!

Hold onto your hats, folks, for this whole thing could develop very quickly, and Iran will be very sorry they ever tried to bloody Israel's nose!!!   They are really going to find out that they are "poking their finger in the 'apple of God's eye' "!!!

Iran Is A Pot, About To Boil Over!!!

Listening to retired General Jack Kean speculate, on FOX NEWS, where he is the contributing Military expert on foreign affairs, about what Iran's next move might be, in response to Secretary of State Pompeo's assertion that, "we are with you", to the people of Iran, who are facing bloody violence, as they riot in the streets, against the hated ruling class of religious zealots that control their government!!!   He speculated that the ruling religious Mullahs will do one of two things, beside the already bloody, violent crack-down on the rioters, which reportedly has already resulted in hundreds dead, and thousands arrested:

Either the regime will "cave" to the sanctions that President Trump has placed on Iran, and come to the negotiating table, which is what the President is hoping for,  or they will continue their belligerent ways, and choose to point externally the "finger" of blame, to draw the ire of the people away from them, towards someone else that they hate as much, or more than they hate America!!!  I don't see them negotiating with America, which they refer to as, "the great Satan", because they can't bear to admit that we can force them to do anything!!!   But, they can rebel against the pressure of sanctions by attacking their concept of  "the little Satan", which is the term they use to refer to Israel!!!

Any regular reader of this blog knows that I am expecting, at almost any time, that Iran will begin the invasion of the Middle-East, prophecied in Ezekiel: 38, and 39, by invading Israel, whom they hate, and which is the only regional power capable of thwarting their invasion!!!   I believe this public rioting may stimulate the Mullahs' resolve to begin this reckless invasion, at Russia's urging, because they have a great history of using their military to demonstrate their belligerence  to internal pressure by turning public attention outward, in order to deflect criticism away from their regime!!!

Regular readers will remember that my reading of this prophecy convinces me that God will use this invasion to turn what, at first, appears to be an impending disaster into an overwhelming victory for Israel, perhaps with an earthquake that will send the invaders into a panicked retreat, when "every man's "sword" (or, modern weapon) will be against his "brother"( or, comrade in arms)!!!   I can see perhaps the Russians trying to stop the retreat, and creating a war between elements of the intended invasion force!!!  This is apparently how God intends to defeat the invasion by killing up to 83 and 1/3rd % of the total invasion force!!!  This is how God chooses to get the glory, when He shows the heathen world, "that there is still a God in Israel"!!!

Does American Patriotism Still Cut Across Party Lines???

We will see!!!  If the Democrats in the House of Representatives dare to return from their home districts for Thanksgiving break, having tested the local polls concerning their approval ratings, only to follow through with their plans to establish articles of Impeachment, for President Trump, it will show whether they, and their constituents care more for this nation's peace, safety, and personal, and collective prosperity, or for their hatred of President Trump, and the propagandized values of the leftist media!!!

Frankly, I wonder!!!  In my lifetime there has never been such a blatant propaganda campaign against a sitting President, even against Nixon, whose illegal political  activities were  exposed publicly, before the Impeachment proceedings began!  By burglarizing the Democratic Offices, at the Watergate Hotel complex, and funding it with his "Dirty Tricks" slush fund, Nixon committed Political suicide, for which even his Republican supporters in Congress didn't dare defend him!!!

President Trump, on the other hand, has been proven guilty by Leftist "presumptions", "wishes', "opinions", and outright hatred, but nothing that constitutes legally proven, "Bribery, Treason, or other High Crimes and Misdemeanors", as the Constitution specifies as the only grounds for Impeachment of a President!!!  "We don't like him" is not one of those listed grounds for impeachment, nor do all of those emotional assumptions the Democrats have witnessed against him,  constitute impeachable offenses!!!

So, we will see if the traditional view of the "loyal opposition" of the defeated party in the 2016 election remains!!!  Or has the leftist propaganda of the Mainstream Media so captivated their audiences, that they will continue to support the lying, political "Witch Hunt" of the Democrats in the House of Representatives???  If so, they will make no one proud, except the memory of Joseph Goebbels, the Nazi Propaganda Minister, for Adolph Hitler!!!  And his efforts were far more blatant, because they were openly referred to as intentional propaganda!!!  The present-day media absurdly claim  their reporting to be "truth", which is so blasphemously false that I sometimes expect the earth to open up under them, and drop them straight into Hell!!!   I don't know why the Lord waits to give them the due judgement for their sins, but I guess He has a good reason, just as He did when He waited to give me time to realize what I was doing, and to repent of my sins!!!   Else I would be roasting in Hell, beside the unrepentant media journalists of the past!!!  Thank God that His mercy is for all, as I barely made it, in spite of myself," by the skin of my teeth", as the expression goes!!!

The only reasons I can guess why the Democrats will not Impeach the President, are because, one, the Democrats who won in districts that went heavily for Trump, in 2016, will have a tough time explaining to their constituents why they voted to Impeach the President, that their constituents helped elect, when he will be far more popular with the voters in the 2020 election!!!   And, two, the Republicans have announced their intentions of subpoenaing the likes of Joe Biden, his son, Hunter, and especially that blatant, compulsive liar, Adam Schiff, to testify before the Republican controlled Senate, after the President is Impeached!!!  Schiff can lie his "you-know-what" off, when he is not under oath, without facing penalty.  But, when he is under oath before the Senate trial, he must tell the truth, or face criminal prosecution for committing perjury!!!  I don't believe he has the guts to face that dilemma, so he may not press the matter, because there will be no trial if they don' t  impeach the President!!!  So, all those blatant lies he made in a desperate effort to implicate the President as guilty of impeachable offenses, might come back to haunt him, and cause him to not support impeachment, in the final analysis!!!   If he goes through with it all, he will end up in jail, which is what the Trump-haters wanted for the President!!!

God loves to turn His enemies' plans back on themselves, until they suffer the same punishment they intended for those who follow His plans!!!


UPDATE:  11/26/2019--

The real test of whether God is behind a move to not Impeach the President will be recognizable when Democrats in "safe districts", that have historically voted for Democrats for years, begin to speak out against Impeaching the President!!!

Such a district is in the eastern part of Detroit, where the Congresswoman who won in 2016, (I believe her name is Brenda Lawrence)  has just come out publicly opposing Impeachment!   While she also called for the President to be formally censured (I guess for the indiscretion of winning in 2016), she says that Impeachment is not a good idea!!!

 If this becomes a trend in other "safe districts", where the Democratic representative does not face a difficult reelection bid, than we will know that God is behind the move!!!  I doubt if many Democrats will do likewise, simply to protect Adam Schiff from being subpoenaed, in the subsequent Senate-run trial, where he would be forced to admit the truth, under oath, or face jail time for his blatant lies!!!   I doubt if that many people really care what happens to Schiff, so this would seem to be a reliable indication that the Lord is behind the move!!!


UPDATE:  11/27/2019

Yesterday was not over, yet, when Congresswoman Lawrence was seen publicly "flip-flopping" in the House of Representatives, by proclaiming the she, "was always for Impeachment" of the President!!!  I think we can safely assume that somebody, "higher up" in the Democratic cabal, "got to her", and convinced her of the "wisdom" of "flipping" her position on impeachment!!!  I don't think it would have been  Adam Schiff, because he must be cowering under the weight of having to tell the truth, if this all goes to trial; or go to jail, if he upholds his blatant lies (I wonder which he fears the most???).

Nancy Pelosi may have gotten to her, because I'll bet she considers Impeaching the President to be her last official act, before she retires next year (knowing that the Democrats will lose control of the House, in the 2020 election)!!!

I'll keep you all informed of any future "flip-flopping", as the Democrats squirm under the weight of the farce they have created, in the House of Representatives!!!

What's Going On In Iran???

Since I became convinced, over a decade ago, that the 2500 year-old prophecy written about in Ezekiel:  38, and 39 was possibly about to be fulfilled, I have been watching developments in Iran, as reported by the news networks.  I have been convinced that the present turmoil in that country does not conflict with the prophecy, but seems to confirm my suspicions!  Yet the President's preference for using sanctions to pressure belligerent nations to negotiate improved international behavior seems to be somewhat wasted upon Iran's government!!!

What should be effective, logically, is resisted by the very belligerence of the ruling Mullahs, who consider America to be the second worst nation in the world, behind only Israel, in what they consider to be "evil"!!!  But, I recently heard that some 50% of Iran's population is under age thirty, and large numbers of their youth have been educated in American universities for decades!  As American college students have been addicted to television from early childhood, I'm sure that many of these Iranian students picked up on the same addiction while they studied here!  By watching televised stories of typical American lifestyles, I'm sure that many American values became deeply rooted in these Iranian students' minds.  Therefore, a conflict is ingrained in them between their Muslim upbringing and the American values they may have adopted!  Consequently, they easily choose to violently protest the government's decisions that adversely effect them, as they are presently doing, in response to the government's decision to increase the price of gasoline by 50%!!!

Without a perceived alternative, American  economic sanctions can be most effective in  bringing rogue nations to negotiate terms of better behavior, in order to be granted relief from the sanctions.  The problem comes when these same rogue nations perceive, rightly, or wrongly, that they do indeed have a more preferable alternative to bowing to the pressure of American sanctions!

If, as I believe, Iran is being tempted by Russia's conceived plan to invade the rest of the Middle-East, probably to overthrow the Gulf states, and steal their oil reserves, in order to embargo the free world into caving to the Russian, and Muslim invaders' interests, the result of the pain of American sanctions will rather stimulate the beginning of such an invasion, which the Ezekiel prophecy says will be an invasion of Israel, because Israel is the only Middle-East power capable of blocking their invasion (which the prophecy assures they will do)!!!

So, while our experts suggest that the sanctions are having a positive effect upon Iran's government, it may be that the whole "Gog/Magog" war must be played out, before Iran is brought to the point of giving in to the desired effects of the sanctions!!!  At that point, it will not be the sanctions that brought them to the table, but God's intervention, to help Israel defeat Iran's invasion, that did it!!!

Who Is The Most Evil Person In The World Today???

That's a difficult question to answer, because there are so many candidates eagerly vying for the title!!!

So, which is more evil?  The radical Muslim terrorist, who wants to kill all Christians and Jews, and for that matter, anyone who dares to disagree with them about anything!!!  Or the proponents of the "One-World Socialist" government who are generically referred to as "Globalists", who feel that their subtle efforts to destroy free, and democratic governments, from within, is really the best for all the people, because it makes their own Utopian form of government seem less unrealistic, by removing the competition!!!

The problem is that the Bible has clearly prophecied that anyone who participates in this system, and it's computerized economic system (which will eventually require a "Mark of the Beast", or probably a computer chip inserted subcutaneously under the skin of their right hand, to identify them) will automatically get a free ticket to Hell, for eternity!!!  No one else can buy, or sell anywhere in the world, for the seven year duration of their rule, until Jesus returns to establish His Kingdom of Heaven on Earth!!!  So, participation in this system might be the "Unpardonable Sin" that Jesus spoke about, without explaining much to His disciples, who could not have been expected to understand what a computerized system of economics would be!!!

Obedient Christians, and Jews will be struggling mightily during that seven year period, just to fight off starvation until the Lord returns!!!  Some might be tempted to steal food, for themselves and their starving families, which will probably give them a prison sentence, after they are probably forced to receive the "Mark of the Beast", in their hand, against their will!  Perhaps this is the basis for the Lord's statement that, "if your right hand offends thee, cut it off, for it is better to enter into the resurrection with one hand," than into Hell with two!!!

So, perhaps the dedicated "Globalists" are more evil than the terrorists, even though the "Globalists'" intentions are to make the world better for all, because they are helping to establish a system that forces millions to spend eternity in Hell, which is much more efficient than a terrorist who kills a Christian, which sends him to heaven!!!

The most powerful, and effective "Globalist" today would seem to be George Soros!  The billionaire who has cleverly set up so many so-called non-profit corporations, which seem to promote peaceful movements, but which all tend to weaken the security of their respective governments, and place heavy financial burdens on their respective economies, with the intention of bankrupting their treasuries, or overburdening their bureaucracies with dependent poverty-stricken immigrants who will overwhelm their governments!  He reputedly finances his efforts by investing "short" in each country's stock market, and then striving heavily to create the kind of chaotic situation that will cause the economy to collapse, creating huge profits for himself, for betting against them!!!  I wonder if he invested short in Venezuela's stock market, before their government destroyed their economy???

So, who is the most evil man in the world?   Perhaps Soros is a strong candidate!  So, am I claiming that he will become the future Antichrist???  I don't know, and I don't much care; because it doesn't much matter!   He is doing Satan's bidding now, whether he knows it, and intends it, or not!!!  I fail to see how another candidate for the Antichrist could be much more evil!!!  So, if Soros reads this post, don't be surprised if he claims that it is anti-Semitic, just because he was apparently born a Jew!!!   So was a guy named Saul, who was perhaps the most evil man of his day, until Jesus converted him "on the road to Damascus", and he became perhaps the greatest Christian evangelist ever!!!

Perhaps Jesus will give Soros a "Damascus road experience", as well!!!  He could certainly use one!!!  Then, he might become a modern-day Paul the Apostle!   But I'm sure that Satan would find another candidate for his Antichrist; there seems to be millions that are falling all over themselves to become the "most evil person in the world"!!!   Just look at the Democrats in the House of Representatives!!!  Adam Schiff might like to apply for the job!!!

Whew, The Adam Schiff Impeachment Farce Is Finally Over!!!

Thank God that embarrassing quasi-legal procedure is finished!!!

But, wait!   I guess it's not really over, yet!  I guess I've been watching too much of FOX NEWS' reports about the "Inquiry", where Republican Congressman go to proclaim the "Inquiry's" death, before it is actually buried, as it soon will be!  I guess what they really mean is that this phoney investigation has run it's course, without producing any concrete evidence of wrong-doing by the President, even though the structure of the "investigation" was unfairly skewed against the President,  without his being able to defend himself, with his own attorneys being present to cross-examine the witnesses, or even to face his accusers, which is a long-held legal requirement of an honest trial procedure!!!  The illegal procedure of granting their "whistleblower" anonymity meant that he, or she, did not have to face cross-examination to determine the validity of the charges made!!!  This means that the "whistleblower" status of this person was not legitimate, either!!!  ( I will personally be very surprised if the "whistleblower's" initials do not start with "J.B.", with apologies to the "King of Soul Music" !!!)

 No matter!  Because after the House completes it's sham "Impeachment" of the President, it will move to the Senate for the trial, where legal procedures will be re-established by the controlling Republicans, and the "whistleblower" will be subpoenaed, which will force the person's identity to be made public, and he, or she, will be legally cross-examined,  where the previous charges made will either be established, or more likely NOT!!!

Also, witnesses, such as Hunter Biden, and his father, Joe, will probably be subpoenaed to testify under oath about the "propriety" of Hunter's appointment to the corrupt Ukrainian  Gas company, Burisma,  without any apparent expertise in the field (except that he was the son of the sitting Vice President). It will be interesting to hear the explanation as to why this does not constitute illegal bribery, or why that should be considered acceptable for Democratic candidates, after President Trump was vociferously, falsely accused of the same crime, in the Democrats desperate attempt to find an impeachable offense to "convict" him of!!!

I have frequently written about historical events, usually concerning wars, that began as apparent disasters, only to conclude as overwhelming victories for the side that was defending the most properly moral position, agreeing with the Biblical perspective on the matter.   I believe the first four American wars can easily be explained in this manner, and I see a parallel to this principle in the Congressional "war" against the President, not only by the Democrats in the House, but by their overwhelmingly obvious "Deep State witnesses", whose loyalty seems more towards the European concept of "One-World Socialist" government, than to our Constitutional rule of law!!!

This disloyalty to the Constitution seemed to allow the use of lies, and exaggerations, and legally inadmissible hearsay testimony, to attempt to accuse the President of crimes he was obviously innocent of, until they were finally forced to admit, under oath, that they were not provable charges.  Such lies, and distortions of the truth, and hearsay testimony, are the usual tools of the Left, and it takes the threat of legal prosecution to force them to admit the truth!  That is why you can bet the Republicans will be sending out many subpoenas to these people, when the trial begins!

God tends to allow the truth to will out eventually, and those who initially try to deceive, to the hurt of others, usually pay the price that they intended for their victims, in the first place!!!  Woe to the re-election prospects of the Democratic liars, in the 2020 election campaigns!!!

Iranians Protest Removal Of Gas Subsidies, As Economy Struggles Under Sanctions!!!

Recent protest violence against the Mullah's regime is being touted as evidence of Trump's sanctions' effectiveness against the Iranian regime's evil support of terrorism around the world, and their continued efforts to enrich their plutonium, in order to develop atomic missiles that they have vowed to send against Israel!!!  In normal circumstances this would certainly bring about the desired effect, and Iran would either cave in to the west's desire to bring them to the negotiating table, or there would be the desired regime change that would free up the people from the tyrannical rule of the obsessive Mullahs, that believe in the Koran's false prophecies, which speak of eventual world domination of Islam, and Islamic genocidal destruction of Israel!!!

But, Iran's regime obviously perceives that they have an alternative choice, which is preferable to them; which is the plan to invade the rest of the Middle-East, at Russia's urging, and especially Israel, which they hate, and which is the only regional threat to their (I suspect) desired conquest of the Gulf States' oil fields!!!  This plan would create the opportunity to embargo the largest amount of oil to the rest of the world, giving Russia, and Iran financial relief from the sanctions that America has brought upon them, while forcing those countries that have supported the sanctions to relent, and perform to the bidding of the Russian, and Muslim nations' desires!!!

Their plan is well thought out, and would certainly succeed, except for one thing, or rather one Person, and that is God!!!  I maintain that all this seems consistent with the Ezekiel prophecy in Ezekiel: 38, and 39, which God spoke to His prophet, some 2500 years ago, saying it would come to pass in, "the latter days".  I operate under the assumption that we are in those "latter days" now, based upon the current events that seem to agree with the circumstances that are described in the prophecy, which are unique in history, since the time of the revealed prophecy!  Anyone who believes that God can not make a prophecy that remains dormant for 2500years, (even if they believe that God exists), is selling the God of the universe short, and themselves up for a very rude awakening when it all comes to pass, as it may well be about to happen!!!  For those who belligerently hold to their atheistic beliefs, as whomever "Gog" is, apparently does (whether Putin, or someone else) their "rude awakening" will likely pronounce a death sentence, as well!!!  Remember, God, "will not be mocked", whatever He says will come to pass, will!!!  Even if we have to wait 2500 years for it to happen!!!  I think this is probably God's way of testing us to see how strong our faith is in His Word!

So, don't expect these riots to be effective in changing the intentions, or behavior, of the ruling Mullahs in Iran!  It more likely will spur their intentions to invade Israel, to begin the whole invasion, which will set about God's plan for regime change in Iran, which may involve nuclear retaliation for the probable use of poison gas that they seem to be prophecied to use against Israel, in the initial phase of the invasion!!!

Attorney General Barr "Declares War On President Trump"!!!

So, what are you saying, Rick???  Are you claiming that the A.G. is willing to fight against the President??Not at all!!!  What he did was to put a correct title to the shameless sham the Democrats in the House of Representatives are conducting in their so-called "Impeachment Hearings", against the President!!!  Instead of declaring war, himself, he was correctly characterizing this process for the evil attempt to overthrow the President, not for any "high crimes and misdemeanors" that they can charge him with, but for the terrible indiscretion of, they just don't like him!!!  Where in the Constitution does it give power to the House to impeach a president, simply because they don't like him???

Attorney General Barr reminded us that for over 200 years the opposition party was referred to,  and rightly considered themselves to be, "the loyal opposition!!!  Any disloyal opponents would be in danger of committing Treason, for which the penalty was Death!!!  Alexander Hamilton tried to carry out such an execution upon Vice President Aaron Burr, unsuccessfully, after which (I think) Burr fled to the foreign country of Louisiana, which was then owned by France!   His crime had been attempting to overthrow the government, in a greedy power grab, such as we now see people like Adam Schiff doing today!!!  Perhaps a similar penalty should soon be applied, in this case!!!

The difference in this case, as I suppose, is not the intent of overthrowing the government, but the afterwards intention of sending the power of the people to the evil "One-World Government" system that the European Commonwealth is trying to establish!!!  This may not be evil in their original intentions, but the Bible prophecies that it will eventually be taken over by Satan's Antichrist, and that God will condemn all those who willingly participate in this system to an eternity in Hell!!!  After seven years they will all be so judged, when Jesus Christ returns to establish His Kingdom of Heaven On Earth!!!

 As difficult as this seems to be believed (and the "Globalists" apparently do not) never the less,  it will happen just this way, and those who don't believe it will have an eternity to regret their foolish choice!!!

President Trump Is Becoming The Modern-Day Equivalent Of Neville Chamberlain!!!

In the days leading up to the beginning of World War II, British Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain negotiated a settlement with Germany's Adolph Hitler, allowing for Germany's takeover of the Sudetenland territory to go unchallenged by the western nations, because Hitler promised to behave himself, thereafter!!!  Chamberlain proudly proclaimed that this settlement would bring about, "peace in our time!"

We all know how that turned out!   Chamberlain's agreement allowed Hitler to set his sites on the next piece of European land that his lust for conquest desired, and soon the world was embroiled in the most violent "peace in our time" that the world has ever seen!!!   Perhaps President Trump is using Chamberlain's example for his brand of diplomacy, over the Turkish invasion of the Kurdish-held territory, in Northern Syria!!!

After Trump ordered the pull-out of American forces in the territory, with Turkey's assurances by their President Erdogan that they would not engage in the ethnic cleansing of Kurds, Christians, and Yazidi's, that we see them carrying out today, I'm sure the Kurds, and their protectorates are grateful for his relenting, and deciding to send troops to protect the Kurdish held oil fields!  I can just hear them saying to each other, as the gunfire closes in on them, "Boy, I'm sure glad our oil fields are protected!!!"   Trump's compassion for the civilian population of the area ranks up with Chamberlain's proclamation of, "peace in our time"!!!

I am deeply disturbed over this issue, as I was reluctantly, and tentatively, supportive of Donald Trump's election, in 2016, mostly because I was nauseated by the prospect of a Hillary Clinton victory,  yet I vowed to support him, as long as I approved of his policies.  I have been pleasantly surprised, up until now,  as it seemed that his decisions were in line with the Biblical perspective on the various issues.

But I fail to see how this situation can be pleasing to God, except that it opens the door for Israel to take over where our forces have left off!   That, coupled with the recent massive rocket bombardment of Israel, from the Hamas forces in the Gaza region, in southwestern Israel, makes me wonder if this actually is God's way of announcing the beginning of His prophecied  Muslim, and Russian invasion of the Middle-East, which will seem to be disastrous for Israel, before God miraculously turns it into a victorious rout by the Israelis!!!

As for Donald Trump's re-election bid, in 2020,  I guess I will still vote for him, in spite of my disapproval of his decision to withdraw troops from the Kurdish held territories, but only because the Democratic alternative is too nauseating to consider!!!

Spiritual Blindness: Those Who Call Good Evil, And Evil Good!!!

Jesus said, "By their fruits you shall know them."  The term "fruits" was used, contextually, to mean a combination of their spoken words, mixed with their consistent behavior, including all "unintended consequences" that result from their efforts.   Did their words and deeds measure up to good, or evil consequences???

Today, we have politicians falling all over themselves to declare their localities to be sanctuary cities, states, etc.!!!  But who are they trying to protect with their sanctuary declarations?  The lawful are already thoroughly protected by the very laws that they do not violate!  It is only the illegal acts of those who blatantly violate our federal and local laws, that need these absurd "sanctuary" protections from our state and federal prosecution.  Essentially, these sanctuary cities, and states, etc., are established to protect criminals from prosecution, or punishment for their crimes, at everyone else's expense!!!  The leftists believe that a crime infested society will drive the people to demand socialism, without considering that the socialists created the chaos that is the root cause of their society's problems.  And, the decades of brainwashing our children in public schools has left many to readily accept socialism as truth!!! So that's fine by the socialist politicians, as long as they can rip off the taxpayers to afford to insulate themselves from the personal effects of crime!!!  Like the wall around Nancy Pelosi's house, in San Francisco!!!

I have written before , that it is a well known doctrine of the left, that, as the communist slogan says, "out of chaos comes order".  But, the left confuse "order" with peace!!!  To them, it means that you and I stop doing what they don't like, PERIOD!!!!!!!!!  It does not mean that everyone obeys the law!!!  If the criminals keep running amok, like they're doing in California, that's fine by them!   But the conservatives had better stop complaining about it, because they don't like that!!!

Consequently, we have drug cartel members, and criminal gang members, mostly from Mexico, along with members of  foreign terrorist cells illegally entering our borders, and disappearing into our society, until they create their acts of criminal, or terrorist activity!!! Then the sanctuary laws attempt to allow them to escape prosecution, or suffer the all-expense paid "punishment" of being deported back to their home countries, from which they repeat the illegal trek back to create more havoc in our country.   Supposedly, the "sanctuary" supporters are merely concerned with their "compassion" for those who wish to immigrate to America, to escape the oppression of their home countries!  But they have legal ways of applying for that kind of asylum status, without illegally "crashing" our borders!  The criminal, and terroristic behavior that accompanies their sanctuary efforts is apparently not considered to be their responsibility, as they try to  divorce the one aspect of their efforts from the other!   Truly, they can not do so!!!

But my greatest concern is not for the politicians who institute these "sanctuary" laws across the country, but for the poor fools who support them, and continue to reelect them to their positions!!!  It matters not much whether they are simply unable to grasp the evil consequences of what they are supporting, or if they simply don't strongly consider the evil they are fomenting upon us all!!!  God will surely hold them accountable for the evil they support, intentionally, or not!!!

Let's pray that there are still enough righteous people in our country to vote down their evil  efforts, and save our nation from the blatant evil that these arrogant leftist politicians are fomenting upon us now!!!

The Real Goal Of The Conspiracy Is Not The Presidency, Or The Congress, But The Constitution!!!

I have been reading a fascinating "Spy Novel", lately, called "Witch  Hunt" by Gregg Jarrett!

Wait a minute!  Did I just call this a "novel"???  A novel is fiction, and this book is about a true attempt at a government coup, of the United States of America, and some of you may be familiar with that government!!!  This book reads like fiction, for those of us who trust in our Constitutional government, but it is frightening to see how close we came to losing it, and we still could!!!  If you're an American  you had better pay attention to what's been going on, right under your noses, because if this coup had been successful, and it still might be, there might just  no longer be a Constitutional government here any more!!!

While the immediate goal of this blatant attempt was to throw the 2016 Presidential election  to Hillary Clinton, but, having failed to do so, by the slimmest of margins, their continued efforts to impeach the President are so blatantly hysterical that I believe there is a much more diabolical  goal for these conspirators.  I believe they only want to control the power of our government, briefly, just long enough to force us to abolish our Constitution, and willingly join their "Utopian" government; the European concept of "One-World" Socialist government!!!  Secularists refer to this concept as "Globalism", but it's all the same thing!

 Failing that, they will settle for destroying our currency, with hyper-costly socialist programs, which will soon destroy our whole economy, and force the rest of the world to find another country's currency to use as the international currency of exchange.  Gee!  I wonder if the European Computer currency would be available??? The one that Biblical prophecy tells us that all the participants will receive a free ticket to Hell, for an eternity!!!  Oh well, maybe the dollar will have recovered by then???  Ya think???

The very blatant illegal behavior of so many high ranking government officials, from former Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton, and her "clumsy" destruction of legal evidence of her improperly stored government secrets, on an unsecured E-mail account, is so blatantly illegal that I don't think it was accidental!  She had to know it was illegal, just as the F.B.I. officials, and Department of Justice officials, who intentionally broke the law trying to cover up her crimes, while implicating Trump of impeachable crimes, must have known that what they were doing was blatantly illegal, and it would all come out soon, as it is now doing so!!!

So, why were they not sufficiently concerned to stop their illegal activities???  I believe they expected that there would soon be no Constitutional law available to prosecute them against, and if they were to be sent to jail, it would all be overturned shortly afterwards, when the new "One-World" government took control, and reversed their convictions!!!  Thus, the blatant behavior of the leftists, and the perverse platforms of the leftist candidates for the 2020 Presidential election!  They want to overwhelm the Treasury with unaffordable expenses, to bankrupt our economy, and drive us into the new European computerized currency, that the Bible prophecy tells us will guarantee the participants a free ticket to Hell, for eternity!!!

And if these people decide they can't overthrow our government peacefully, the can always opt for the violent overthrow of it all!!!  That's why they are so desperate to destroy our second amendment rights to "keep and bare arms"!!!  They don't want us to be able to resist their takeover!

So, you can see why I feel that this coming election will be the most important election, not only in American history, but the history of the whole world!!!

Hmmm!  Where can I find some "Bear arms to keep"!!!  Then all I have to do is make sure the claws are good and sharp!!!

I'll Grant "Cautious Optimisim" for Trumps Handling Of Kurds

Right now I have more faith in what I hear from Lindsey Graham, than President Trump, concerning the Kurds, in Northern Syria.  If there was a good reason for pulling American troops out of the region, which seemed to give Turkish President Erdogan an unofficial "green light" to invade the Kurds' territory, then I'd like to hear it!   So far it looks like total abandonment, which seems unconscionable, considering the help they gave us in conquering the I.S.I.S. terrorists, in Iraq!

But, if the President talked to Graham, as he says he did, and now Graham says he is "increasingly optimistic" about the President's handling of the situation, then I am willing to give the President the benefit of the doubt, and go so far as "cautious optimism" until I hear something substantial in that regard!!!

I admit I'd prefer to hear some good reason for bailing out on the Kurds, and that this so-called "cease fire", in which both sides seem to be blasting the H*** out of each other, will really turn out to be a permanent cessation of hostilities!  I don't like having to turn against Trump, after he has done so much right, up until this point.  But, I can't support the total abandonment, of a proven ally, especially in a region where there are hostile agents on every side!!!  [more later, as it develops.]

Will Trump's Sanctions Force Erdogan To Behave, Or Not???

My guess is, "probably Not!!!"  Because Erdogan has probably already planned for such a financial crisis, by joining forces with the Anti-Trump-Sanctions crew:  namely, Russia, Iran, and the others listed in the Ezekiel: 38, and 39 prophecy, concerning the allies with Russia in the "Gog/Magog" invasion of the Middle-East!!!  I do not make an unfounded judgement, here, but I refer to Ezekiel: 38, verse 6, which refers to two tribes that historically have resided in the territory of present-day Turkey; "Gomer", and "Togarmah"!!!

This seems to me to be a clear reference to Turkey's joining in with the prophecied invasion, that I continue to suspect is about to come to pass!   The objective of this invasion, as well as I am able to understand it, seems to be a takeover of all of the Arab Gulf States' oil reserves, in order to blackmail all of the western nations who have supported Trump's sanctions against them (especially Russia, and Iran), with an international oil embargo, that will make the 1973 embargo look like kindergarten "play time", by comparison!!!  But, before they can conquer the Gulf States, they must remove the only threat in the region who might try to stop them; Israel!!!  But, God makes it clear, in the prophecy, that He will bless Israel, and turn the invasion into a panicked rout, when the invaders begin to fight with each other, destroying 83 and 1/3rd% of their invasion force!!!

 The invasion will apparently begin with  (probably) Iran invading under a "cloud" (of poison gas???), which will not greatly harm Israel, because the government has been handing out gas masks for years, because of concerns that this prophecy would someday come true!  It will begin to end with an apparent earthquake, that somehow devastates the invading armies, and sends some of them in a panicked retreat, which the rest of them try to stop, setting up what God calls, "every man's sword (or, modern weapon), will be against his brother (or, comrade in arms)"!!!  This is how God will allow them to destroy most of their own invasion force!!!

So, am I calling this Turkish invasion the beginning of the "Gog/Magog" invasion?  Maybe, and then, again, maybe not!  This may be another preliminary step, setting it all up; especially giving America an excuse, through what appears to be a blunder on Trump's part, to not participate in the repulse of the invasion, so God can receive all the glory for helping Israel!!!  God apparently wants this to show the "heathen" world that He exists, and that they had better not harm Israel, for fear of receiving His wrath!!!  This seems to be the start of almost all of what is prophecied to come to pass, in the book of Revelation!!!

 So where does this leave us???   It lends an important emphasis upon the scripture to, "look up, for your redemption draweth nigh!!!"

UPDATE:  Seven hours later--

Just a quick thought, that may not have any truth to it,  I don't know!  On FOX NEWS,  I heard a report on Lindsey Graham's enthusiastic denouncement of Trump's decision to pull our troops out of the Kurd's area of northern Syria!!!  I heard it yesterday, on the 700 CLUB, and today I heard Trump's somewhat sarcastic retort, "Linsey Graham wants us to stay in the Middle-East for a thousand years!!!"  I didn't think much of this, at first, but upon reflection it occurred to me that God may have caused Trump to say this, referring to Jesus' one thousand year reign in Israel, after His return!!!  People often have been known to say something "prophetic", which they thought was a flippant remark, but which God caused them to have a deeper meaning upon reflection!

It happened to me, years ago!  I don't remember the circumstances well, but I remember being struck afterwards, that what I said seemed to be more appropriate to the other person's needs than I had any way of guessing, before hand!!!

So, was Trump seriously referring to the Millennial Kingdom, in a sarcastic, unbelieving manor???  If so, that would double my intent to find someone else to vote for!!!  But it will not be one of those Democrat buffoons!!!

Was that what happened with Trump, today???  God knows, but I can only speculate!  Perhaps this was God's way of showing that His anointing was shifting from Trump, to Graham, for the upcoming election, I don't know!!!  I know nothing about Graham's status as a Born-Again Christian, or not, but I will support anyone who stands for righteousness, even Trump, as long as he does so!  And I will vote against him as soon as he stops!   Many secular politicians have been used mightily of God, such as Winston Churchill, in protecting Britain, and the rest of the free world, in World War II!  And U. S. Grant, in the Civil War!!!   Both were cigar-smoking, reputed alcoholics, which is a significant indication as to their concern for Christian values, not absolutely, but somewhat reliably!!!

 That knowledge was behind my voting for Trump, in 2016, and it will be behind my voting for someone else, if he stops standing for what I consider to be righteousness!!!

Open Letter To President Trump: Catch A Clue!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I do not presume to be smart enough to be the President of America...However, when something as basic as what faces us now is so obvious, I must complain when our President seems either unable, or unwilling to face simplistic choices!   You do not abandon trusted allies, in the name of drawing down the foreign troop levels because of a campaign promise!  Trump seems to place more trust in his pentagon advisors, than any alliance with the Kurds.   Yes, we should basically be more concerned about protecting areas where we have our own interests.   But there are special circumstances that require special considerations, and the Kurds deserve our protection from their belligerent neighbors!
We did not bring Erdogan into the N.A.T.O. alliance.  He inherited his place when he was elected.  If the Turkish people really want such a thug to be their president, they should automatically be ousted from N.A.T.O.!!!

 If you must draw down troop levels, start  with Japan, and Germany, which have proven to be reasonably trustworthy about not returning to the pre-World War II levels of military build-up!  You don't pick on  the trusted allies, in the most volatile areas of the world, simply because the blood-thirsty dictator of a traditional N.A.T.O. ally says he will behave himself, if you will give him a green light to do whatever he wants with the allies that he happens to hate!!!  If Japan, and Germany start to build up their forces beyond agreed levels, it will be obvious, and your obsession with economic sanctions will be much more effective against them to reverse their behavior, than it will to get Erdogan to reverse his genocidal incursion into Kurdish northern Syria.  I think it's pretty hard to repent of the slaughter of the dead, and not simply stop any further murderous slaughter!   Only the Lord can reverse the conditions of the already dead, which He will do when He returns, but I don't think He's quite ready to do that yet!!!

You have demonstrated all the military genius of Barak Obama, who famously pulled out of Iraq, too soon, allowing I.S.I.S. to sneak in to establish their territory, which you had to overcome!  Didn't you learn anything by watching his tremendous blunder???   You have duplicated his lunacy, in a slightly different area!!!  What makes you think that I.S.I.S. will not try to repeat their previous incursion, especially now that "hundreds" of their imprisoned terrorists have "escaped", probably when their prison doors were flung open, in an attempt to show you the disaster you have created!!!

What makes you think I am going to vote for you in 2020, after this display of international lunacy, or any other Evangelical Christians, who voted for you in 2016!!!  Your record for the past nearly three years has effectively been nullified by this horrendous blunder!!!   Economic sanctions will not effectively change the murderous behavior of a tyrant like Erdogan, until he has completed his genocidal incursion!!!  Then any "repentance" he demonstrates will not have much of an effect upon those he has already murdered!!!

Now What??? I Guess Trump Is Betting We Have Nowhere Else To Go!

When I voted for Trump, in 2016, I basically had to hold my nose, and grit my teeth, to do so!!!  I was not voting for him, but against Hillary!  I have been pleasantly surprised by him since then, but I always felt that I would support him, only so long as I approved of his presidential behavior!  As soon as I felt he was doing something wrong, I intended to remove my support from him, as long as there was someone better available!

His abandonment of the Kurds in Syria, which has brought about the Erdogan ethnic cleansing, of  the Turkish invasion which was so obviously expected after the American troop withdrawal, may have been the proverbial, "straw that broke this camel's back!"  I have been watching, and waiting for some believable explanation, but fulfilling a campaign promise at the expense of thousands of allied lives, just doesn't cut it!!! And, I don't see how sanctions that may take months to feel the pain from will cause Erdogan to stop his invasion before he has finished his ethnic cleansing of all the Kurds, Christians, and Yazidis in northern Syria!!!  Sorry, but I just don't see the logic!!!

I will be watching the Republican Primaries, for a decent alternative, since there is none out of the Democratic clown parade!!!  This side of absolute insanity could never get me to vote for any of them!!!  Or Mitt Romney either!!!  I may have to just stay home!

It's a shame that Trump had to blunder so miserably, so close to the election cycle, he had done a good job up until now, but not good enough to kiss off an important ally, in such a volatile area of the world!!!  I guess I now know why there is no mention of America, or some description that could appear to be us, as coming to the aid of Israel during the "Gog/Magog" invasion!!! What ally could ever trust us to rely upon in the future, ever again!!!  Way to go, Trump!!!

How Did Britain Lose The Revolutionary War???

I have been watching an account of the Revolutionary War, produced by the History Channel (I think), in which it is stated as remarkable that, "a nation of farmers could defeat the most powerful army in the world!!!   This statement leant some interest to their program, but was only partially accurate.

 America was a nation of armed farmers, who lived in areas where their safety could be in jeopardy at any time, from wild animals, hostile Indians, or roaming brigands, seeking to enrich themselves, with little threat from organized law enforcement!!!    They certainly lacked military training, but they knew how to shoot their guns, which is a skill that the leftists of today are desperately trying to abolish in America, with their campaign against the second amendment of the Constitution!

 We all are appalled by the stream of manic gun toting murderers who prey upon the innocent, and unarmed, as if they would not, if only there were laws to prevent it all!  As if there were not such laws, already on the books!  The problem is not with the guns that are used to kill with; the problem is more with the crisis of mentally ill people, who have access to those guns (legally, or otherwise), and choose to use them to take out their frustrations on innocent people!!!

Years ago the Psychologists and Psychiatrists of this country gave us the roots of this problem, when they collectively decided that the concept of locking the mentally ill away in asylums was no longer necessary, due to the improvements being made in psychotherapeutic drugs, and they supported the releasing of these patients into society, where they would be fine, as long as they kept taking their drugs!  Unfortunately, many of these drugs had unpleasant side effects, which many patients felt were not worth the trouble of dealing with!  So they arbitrarily decided that they were "cured" of their mental illness, and stopped taking their unpleasant "meds"!

I suspect that this attitude is responsible for many of the mass shootings, when the former patients become hopelessly frustrated that they are feeling the symptoms of their original illness, and recognize that they will soon be forced to begin taking their unpleasant "meds" again!!!  They may rationalize that committing "suicide, by cop" is preferable to continuing with the problem.   Mass murder is a pretty sure way of committing "suicide by cop"!

Because of the over-simplistic judgement of the mental health professionals of this country, many innocent people are dying through their collective errors in judgement!!!  It's time to stop this verbal assault upon the Second Amendment, and begin to recognize that some  people must be incarcerated in mental health facilities, for their own good as well as to protect society from their harmful, and even murderous outbursts!   Legal protections can be enforced to protect those who are sane from being abused by the false claims of others, but we need to get the horribly unstable people off the streets!   They can not control themselves, and as Christians we recognize that they are the people that are most vulnerable to Satanic delusion, as in hearing voices that tell them to kill others, and the innocent are at risk by them!

As for the leftist blather that we need to get the guns out of private ownership, it seems to me that they are probably more worried that the guns will be used against them (with good reason), when they try to take over control of the country, and abolish the Constitution!!!  I think our "Founding Fathers" might object to their arguments!!!

UDATE:  10/9/2019--

Today I watched the 700 CLUB, when Pat Robertson talked about most of what I wrote above!  It's like someone ( Gee, I can't guess who!!!) was preparing my heart to be sensitive to this issue, in advance! Pat informed me that the reason that the asylums were closed down was because of the "Bedlam" aspect of  some asylums, where inmates are warehoused in inhumane conditions, and essentially forgotten, or intentionally kept beyond necessity, in order to maintain the income flow to the asylum!

In the 1960's, this was considered a solution to the problem of unnecessary, and interminable incarceration, but the problem of putting helpless inmates on the streets was created, instead!  This seems to me to be a way for the federal, and state bureaucracies to avoid their responsibility of periodically checking on the quality of service of these asylums, perhaps  through unannounced inspections,  and simply washing their hands of the problem, instead!!!

It was also stated that the drugs for various diseases, like cancer have been improved, as recently as 3, or 4 years ago, while many of these drugs used to treat mental illness have not been improved upon for seven years, or more!   The unpleasant side effects could probably be diminished if researched, but perhaps the financial incentive is not as strong.

UDATE:  10/13/2019--

The Ukraine is back at #2 of my pageview stats, though with more modest numbers than before, while Russia has increased modestly also.  Interestingly, Canada has apparently lost interest in what I have to say, probably during the airplane flight back to the Ukraine, and Russia!!!  

Boy the espionage game is so confusing, I just can't figure it all out!!!  It's amazing to see all the trouble that "spies" will go to, just to avoid picking up a Bible, and reading it for themselves!!!  I guess God must have created a special room in Hell, for belligerently lazy spies, who refuse to learn obvious lessons, because of "official political positions" on the existence of God!!!
