---------- Inspiration For the Week--------"They gathered manna every morning." Exodus 16:21

Labour to maintain a sense of thine entire dependence upon the Lord's good will and pleasure for the continuance of thy richest enjoyments. Never try to live on the old manna, nor seek to find help in Egypt. All must come from Jesus, or thou art undone for ever. Old anointings will not suffice to impart unction to thy spirit; thine head must have fresh oil poured upon it from the golden horn of the sanctuary, or it will cease from its glory. To-day thou mayest be upon the summit of the mount of God, but He who has put thee there must keep thee there, or thou wilt sink far more speedily than thou dreamest. Thy mountain only stands firm when He settles it in its place; if He hide His face, thou wilt soon be troubled. If the Saviour should see fit, there is not a window through which thou seest the light of heaven which He could not darken in an instant. Joshua bade the sun stand still, but Jesus can shroud it in total darkness. He can withdraw the joy of thine heart, the light of thine eyes, and the strength of thy life; in His hand thy comforts lie, and at His will they can depart from thee.

This hourly dependenceour Lord is determined that we shall feel and recognize, for He only permits us to pray for "daily bread," and only promises that "as our days our strength shall be." Is it not best for us that it should be so, that we may often repair to His throne, and constantly be reminded of His love? Oh! how rich the grace which supplies us so continually, and doth not refrain itself because of our ingratitude! The golden shower never ceases, the cloud of blessing tarries evermore above our habitation. O Lord Jesus, we would bow at Thy feet, conscious of our utter inability to do anything without Thee, and in every favour which we are privileged to receive, we would adore Thy blessed name and acknowledge Thine unexhausted love. ["Morning and Evening Devotions", by C.H. Spurgeon; Emphasis added}

 

---------- Bookstore Resource Update ----------

You will discover an unprecedented number of new books and videos being brought into the Bookstore this week. When we installed our new Shopping Cart, based upon Categories and Subcategorizes, we realized how woefully inadequate our selection was in many subcategorizes. This week's new items represents the first effort we shall make to increase our selection of good, Biblically-based materials. Cutting Edge has been burdened by the historically unparalleled level of Apostasy throughout all of Christianity. Most Protestant churches no longer even preach the Gospel, while pastors in other churches are neglecting to teach the whole Bible, including the difficult principles of Inherent Sin, Judgment, Hell, and Prophecy. Many other people have left Liberal, compromising churches but are having to worship and study in the home because they cannot find a good church in their area.

Many subscribers and readers have also told us they cannot shop at a regular Christian bookstore anymore, because they carry Roman Catholicism, Purpose-Driven materials, and Christian pop-psychology -- but very little Fundamental material. We are determined to stand in the gap, to provide a good, solid Fundamental Christian Bookstore with a well-rounded mix of merchandise. You will find many old Christian Classics, to counter the great Apostasy in current authors. God told Israel to go back to her old roots to get away from the Religious Liberalism of their day; He said:

"Thus saith the LORD, Stand ye in the ways, and see, and ask for the old paths, where is the good way, and walk therein, and ye shall find rest for your souls." [Jer 6:16]

Jewish Roots of Christianity

* The Gospel In The Feasts of Israel - Book - $7.99 -- Since Jesus' life and ministry are so clearly pictured in Israel's annual Feasts, it is incredible that the majority of Jewish people missed Him. In 'The Gospel in the Feasts of Israel', Dr. Buksbazen (Former Executive Director of 'The Friends of Israel') will lead you into an exciting encounter with ancient Israel’s festive occasions and masterfully explain how they interact with and illuminate the teachings of Jesus, the writings of the New Testament, and the message of the Gospel.

* Jesus Christ In The Passover - Video - $19.99 -- God created all the Feasts and the Religious Observances of Ancient Israel in such a manner as to prophetically picture Messiah. Thus, Jews could the more easily recognize Him when He appeared and Gentiles could increase their faith when they realize how completely Jesus was foretold in the Old Testament.

This video provides a source of instruction for churches or study groups and is also a valuable tool in communicating the richness of the Passover message to those who need Christ, and to those whose faith needs to be built up! -- http://www.cuttingedge.org/detail.cfm?ID=767

* Jewish Culture and Customs - Book - $8.95 - Ancient Israel as revealed in our Old Testament is hard to understand in so many ways because the culture is ancient and out-of-date. Thus, many Christians do not understand the full meaning and impact of many passages in the Bible, including Messianic prophecy and End of the Age passages. Every area of Jewish life radiates symbolism. Hundreds of fascinating traditions date back thousands of years. How did these customs get started? What special meaning do they hold? And what can they teach us? Explore the answers to these questions in this enjoyable sampler of the colorful world of Judaism. You’ll see the Bible and Christianity in a whole new light! - Paperback, 141 pages - http://www.cuttingedge.org/detail.cfm?ID=771

* The Zion Connection - Book - $10.99 - Is "Zionism" evil or is it from God? Anti-Semites would have you believe Zion to be evil and worthless. However, God mentions "Zion" 162 times in the Old Testament, with many of those verses contained within End of the Age prophecies; in the New Testament, "Sion" is mentioned 10 times, with great prophetic significance. 1 Peter 2:6 states that Jesus the cornerstone is going to be laid in Sion. In Rev 14:1, we see Jesus standing triumphantly on Mt. Sion with His 144,000 chosen evangelists.

This book takes a thoughtful, sensitive look at current relations between Jewish people and evangelical Christians. This book tackles such controversial issues as anti-Semitism, the rise of Islam, the right of Jewry to a homeland in the Middle East, and whether Christians should try to reach Jewish people with the gospel message—and how. - Paperback, 238 pages - http://www.cuttingedge.org/detail.cfm?ID=768

---------- This Weeks Hot News ----------

I. Cutting Edge posted a major story this past week debunking the notion that Muslim terrorists could possibly hit American cities with nuclear devices (NEWS1938). Once you understand our capability to pinpoint the location of every nuclear warhead on earth at any moment in time, you will have a new outlook on so many of the false terror scare stories coming out of our government.

Let us review the basic premise of this article.

NEWS BRIEF: ""Author: Al-Qaida Has Nuclear Weapons Inside U.S.", Stewart Stogel, NewsMax.com, Wednesday, July 14, 2004, http://www.newsmax.com/archives/articles/2004/7/13/171536.shtml

"A new book written by a former FBI consultant claims that al-Qaida not only has obtained nuclear devices, but also likely has them in the U.S. and will detonate them in the near future. These chilling allegations appear in 'Osama's Revenge: The Next 9/11: What the Media and the Government Haven't Told You', by Paul L. Williams (Prometheus Books). Williams claims that al-Qaida has been planning a spectacular nuclear attack using six or seven suitcase nuclear bombs that would be detonated simultaneously in U.S. cities."

One of the most frightening scenarios a person can possibly imagine is a terrorist nuclear device being detonated in a major city. After the attacks of 9/11, this fear escalated in our minds. Later in this article, above, Homeland Security Director, Tom Ridge, warned of the dangers posed by nuclear bombs in the hands of terrorists. The entire premise of this type of warning is that America is totally helpless against a nuclear device being set off in our cities. Thus, the average citizen suffers an increasingly high level of anxiety, the kind of anxiety which will not protest when the government curtails our liberties in order to "fight terrorism".

Yet, America has possessed a great defense against nuclear terror devices for over a decade now! Listen:

NEWS BRIEF: " US Satellite Detection Of Portable Nuclear Weapons", Rense.com, 11-7-2001, http://www.rense.com/general16/nucla.htm

"As you have probably heard from the major news networks, there is some concern about the so-called portable nuclear devices developed by the old USSR. Their former head of the KGB has confirmed the existence of 150 portable devices: 100 of which are presently unaccounted for ... none of these devices are missing; We know exactly where these devices are located at any given point in time ... A series of satellites planned to begin deployment in 1989 ... They carry special sensor devices (Developed by SAIC) that can detect high-velocity spin-off particles from enriched uranium (necessary for nuclear devices). Due to the small size and velocity of these particles, no amount of shielding can block them: not lead, not earth (sub-terrainian). Radiation hazards from these particles are minimal ... Our satellites are fool-proof in detecting and pin-pointing the locations of enriched uranium throughout the world."

In our article, NEWS1938, on this subject, we back up this assertion from several different sources. America possesses the technology to pinpoint the location of every nuke in the world, and if a warhead begins to move, our satellites and our surveillance aircraft would immediately notice that the warhead is being moved. With this technology, no terrorist group could possibly move a nuclear device into place to carry out an attack.

In NEWS1938, we also demonstrate that this type of warning was one of the most commonly repeated scare headlines since 9/11. We also go to the necessary lengths to print out salient portions of some of these past warnings, so you can see for yourself that the content of the news stories are essentially the same, whether the story was being run in December, 2001, or in July, 2004.

However, the plan does call for a nuclear strike on New York City as the World War III gets underway. But, when that strike does come, you must realize that Muslims did not do the deed; rather, the Illuminati has again carried out a terrorist attack, blaming it on an imaginary enemy so they can justify dissolving our Constitutional Government and moving our country to the planned dictatorship.

One other realization hits home when you realize that we have this type of nuclear radiation sensing capability. You have to realize that governments throughout the world now must consider that atomic weaponry is obsolete. After all, if the enemy knows the exact location of every one of your warheads, those warheads are susceptible to exactly the kind of pinpoint weapons we have in our arsenal.

Even though these terror alerts are bogus, they are fulfilling key End of the Age prophecies:

"Men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth..." (Luke 21:26)
"And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars..." (Matt 24:6)

Now that you know America's capability to pinpoint the location of every nuclear device on earth, other key stories in the news take on a different meaning, don't you think? We have just proven all suitcase nukes stories to be fraudulent. Now, let us review other stories now proven both false and staged by the knowledge that we can pinpoint these devices.

 

II. British and American "investigative committees" issued their reports last week Let us review the appropriate articles and then finish with our commentary.

NEWS BRIEF: "Iraq intelligence 'seriously flawed' - Butler Report", by Gavin Cordon, Press Association, The Guardian (London), July 14, 2004

"Intelligence reports on Saddam Hussein's weapons of mass destruction in the run-up to the Iraq war were 'seriously flawed' but there was no evidence that politicians deliberately distorted the intelligence to support the case for war, the Butler Inquiry said today."

Just like the Lord Hutton report late last year, this Lord Butler report noted that the reason Coalition Forces have not found any Weapons of Mass Destruction and will not find any WMD, is because the Intelligence Agencies suffered a massive "failure". They "allowed" reports to go to Prime Minister Blair that were totally flawed and full of lies; however, the report simultaneously exonerates Blair and his top leadership from the charge that they knew the information was totally false.

Therefore, you had headlines like this one: "Blair off the hook". Blair was also able to say, "No one lied".

The U.S. Senate got into this charade also, with an "Intelligence Failure" report of their own.

NEWS BRIEF: "Editorial - War by folly", San Francisco Chronicle, July 12, 2004

"TRY AS it might, the Bush White House cannot just shrug off the Senate Intelligence Committee's conclusion that every major pretext for the war against Iraq was seriously flawed ... While the Senate Intelligence Committee report contained no earthshaking surprises -- the notion that the case for war was built on flawed information is well established by now -- it was devastating in its clear- eyed accounting of the mess. The report is also significant because of its source: The White House cannot dismiss this as "Fahrenheit 9/11" polemic; it came from the Republican-controlled Senate ... So for the White House, the most positive interpretation of these findings is that top administration officials were led astray by the CIA -- hardly a comforting assessment of the folks assigned to oversee this nation's security."

Therefore, this Senate report is nearly as exonerating for President Bush as was the British Butler Report for Prime Minister Blair. To demonstrate this to be the case, let us go back to this article to see Bush's reaction -- it was certainly not repentant, and even sounded exultant.

"President Bush's reaction was almost as disturbing as the report itself. Once again, it had an element of finger-pointing that has come to characterize a White House that cannot bring itself to admit a mistake. Bush called it a 'useful report' about where the intelligence community 'went short'. Bush added, 'We need to know ... I want to know how to make the agencies better'." [Ibid.]

Perhaps this "exoneration" of President Bush is the reason Mr. Bush had the gall to reassert his laughable, and highly dangerous, doctrine of preemptive strikes.

NEWS BRIEF: "Bush asserts pre-emptive strikes policy", By Edward Alden in Washington, Financial Times, July 12, 2004

"President George W. Bush said on Monday his administration would maintain its policy of pre-empting potential security threats despite growing doubts over the adequacy of US intelligence to assess such dangers. In a speech at the Oak Ridge nuclear facility in Tennessee, Mr Bush made clear he would not rethink the approach after Friday's damning report by the Senate intelligence committee. The report concluded that the Central Intelligence Agency made serious errors in asserting that Saddam Hussein's Iraq possessed or was developing weapons of mass destruction. While acknowledging that the report 'has identified some shortcomings in our intelligence capabilities', he said that would not cause him to reconsider the approach that led the US to invade Iraq."

Even if it were true that Bush and Blair and their leadership went to war in Iraq honestly believing "flawed intelligence" from their intelligence services, you would have to agree that Bush's Pre-emptive Strike Doctrine should be now dead in the water. Cutting Edge pointed out 1 1/2 years ago that such a doctrine required that your intelligence be 100% correct; otherwise, America and her allies would be blowing up countries and overthrowing regimes illegally. But, no, even though our own government acknowledges that the intelligence upon which our invasion of Iraq was totally erroneous, our President says he is going to continue his flawed policy.

Why would he do this? Because he is simply following the pre-planned script, which calls for all countries whose government and economies cannot now enter the computer-driven system of Antichrist, to either be invaded or threatened with invasion (NEWS1833 and NEWS1906).

However, now that you know that our satellites and specially-equipped aircraft surveillance can pinpoint the location of every nuclear warhead on earth 24 hours a day, can you see how even these "critical" reports are fraudulent? Because Senators know this capability, they cannot not justify the lack of WMD in Iraq in any other way than to point to the President, the Pentagon, and his foreign policy team, shouting that they knew the truth and deliberately lied.

Smoking Gun Fact - Proving Culpability

One final note: When the Bush Administration could not get the CIA to sign off on the fraudulent intelligence reports the White House wanted in order to justify an invasion, officials created a bogus "intelligence" agency called "Office of Special Plans". This agency was created solely to issue the scary and false "intelligence" reports which would scare American citizens enough so Bush could order the invasion. We cover this report in NEWS1890 and NEWS1890b. Creation of this false agency proves intent to deceive. But, you hear nothing of it in the Senate Report. I checked the MSNBC Full Text of the Senate Report at: http://msnbc.msn.com/id/5403731/ A word search for "OSP" and "Office of Special Plans" revealed that this false agency had never been mentioned in the Senate's report.

Likewise, Prime Minister Blair and his government created a similar agency called "Operation Rockingham".

NEWS BRIEF: "Revealed: the secret cabal which spun for Blair", Sunday Herald, London, http://www.sundayherald.com/34491

"BRITAIN ran a covert 'dirty tricks' operation designed specifically to produce misleading intelligence that Saddam had weapons of mass destruction to give the UK a justifiable excuse to wage war on Iraq ... Operation Rockingham ... Sources in both the British and US intelligence community are now equating the JIC with the Office of Special Plans (OSP) in the US Pentagon. The OSP was set up by Defence Secretary Donald Rumsfeld to gather intelligence which would prove the case for war. In a staggering attack on the OSP, former CIA officer Larry Johnson told the Sunday Herald the OSP was 'dangerous for US national security and a threat to world peace', adding that it 'lied and manipulated intelligence to further its agenda of removing Saddam'."

This surprising story reveals that the American OSP had an equivalent "dirty tricks" office in Blair's Administration codenamed, "Operation Rockingham". This British agency also deliberately produced false "intelligence" stories designed to scare the public into accepting the planned invasion of Iraq.

When the OSP was deliberately created for the express purpose of disseminating the type of scary "intelligence" reports that would justify the Afghanistan and Iraqi invasions, you have to realize that this action proves deliberate intent to deceive. However, these facts are now totally lost, inundated in the sea of current words about "Intelligence Failure".

Creation of these two patently false "intelligence" services proves intent to lie. Only citizens paying attention will ever know that Bush and Blair deliberately lied.

However, the key point of understanding is that our technological capability to pinpoint every nuke on earth renders this whole discussion moot!

III. Reiterating the "terrorism at anytime" theme, officials hinted that they might have to postpone the Fall elections should an attack occur beforehand! At this point, the practice of issuing bogus terror alerts suddenly turns very serious. A drastic action like this could quickly turn into a decision to dissolve the government, a most important Illuminati goal.

NEWS BRIEF: "Exclusive: Election Day Worries", By Michael Isikoff, Investigative Correspondent, Newsweek, MSNBC, July 19 issue - 2004

"American counterterrorism officials, citing what they call 'alarming' intelligence about a possible Qaeda strike inside the United States this fall, are reviewing a proposal that could allow for the postponement of the November presidential election in the event of such an attack, NEWSWEEK has learned. The prospect that Al Qaeda might seek to disrupt the U.S. election was a major factor behind last week's terror warning by Homeland Security Secretary Tom Ridge. Ridge and other counterterrorism officials concede they have no intel about any specific plots."

When I was investigating the repeating headline news stories since 9/11 for NEWS1888, I realized that the one common factor by which you could tell that the warning was false was the statement: 'There is no specific intelligence causing this alert". What does this article say?

"Ridge and other counterterrorism officials concede they have no Intel about any specific plots."

Now, let us return to this article to see what specific steps Homeland Security is taking to plan to postpone the Fall elections, "if necessary".

"Ridge's department last week asked the Justice Department's Office of Legal Counsel to analyze what legal steps would be needed to permit the postponement of the election were an attack to take place ... Soaries ... wants Ridge to seek emergency legislation from Congress empowering his agency to make such a call."

We have no idea what the timing is for the final consummation of all these plans; however, we do know that not one of the elements will occur before all elements are ready to go. The key is Israel, and her separation of the Jewish population from the Palestinians. Apparently, this plan needs more time to work out, for news reports indicated that only 25% of the Security Wall is finished. We are probably looking at least into a significant portion of 2005 before all elements are ready to explode at once.

IV. Frightening stories that Iran and North Korea may be making nuclear weapons are also proven false by our understanding that our satellites and specially-equipped aircraft can pinpoint the location of every nuclear warhead on earth (NEWS1938). Let us review the stories:

NEWS BRIEF: "Diplomats: Iran Atomic Shopping Deepens Bomb Fears", By Louis Charbonneau, Reuters, reprinted by Wired Magazine, July 16, 2004

"VIENNA (Reuters) - Western diplomats say recent intelligence reports show Iran has been attempting to buy items that could be used to build nuclear weapons ... The diplomats cited European customs information and intelligence gathered in the Middle East showing Tehran had tried to buy, among other things, high-speed switches that could potentially be used in a nuclear weapon and high-speed cameras the Iranians might use to test a nuclear explosion ... there was a lot of evidence that what Iran sought was 'break-out capability' that would stop short of building a nuclear weapon but give it the ability to do so rapidly if it chose to leave the Non-Proliferation Treaty. The United States is bound to seize on the new intelligence as further proof of its belief that Tehran is developing nuclear weapons under cover of a civilian nuclear power program."

As we have stated many times before, it is ludicrous to believe that individual Muslim states would independently try to develop nuclear weapons when Pakistan has been selling them "off the shelf" for over a decade.

NEWS BRIEF: "North Korea talking, making nukes", Glenn Kessler, The Washington Post, reprinted in Arizona Central, Jul. 16, 2004

"WASHINGTON - North Korea is likely producing nuclear bombs even as it conducts negotiations with the United States and four other countries on ending its weapons programs ... 'Time is certainly a valid factor in this', James Kelly, assistant secretary of state for East Asian affairs, testified before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. 'We don't know the details, but it's quite possible that North Korea is proceeding along, developing additional fissionable material and possibly additional nuclear weapons'."

Since American forces have the capability to sense even minute release of radiation from nuclear weapons and the power plants producing them, we would certainly know if North Korea were making new warheads. In fact, we would even know where she was storing them. Once again, the truth is typically 180° in the opposite direction (NEWS1558).

One story ran last week which carried the truth of what Cutting Edge has been saying all along: governments lie, to the point where they lie when the truth would better serve their interests.

NEWS BRIEF: "Why the media failed Americans", By Orville Schell, Asia Times Online, July 16, 2004

"Few in the US media, it seemed, remembered I. F. Stone's hortatory admonition, "If you want to know about governments, all you have to know is two words: Governments lie."

We could not have said it any better! This entire nuclear scare scenario, from suitcase terrorist nukes to "rogue states" developing their own nukes, is simply one of the biggest, most consistently repeated, lies in modern history. What was that quote from Hitler? When you are going to tell a lie, make it a big lie and repeat it often. Then, people will believe you.

"The thing about Ozzy is, he's made a lot of big hit recordings: Party With the Animals, Sabbath Bloody Sabbath, Face in Hell, Black Skies and Bloodbath in Paradise, Ozzy, Mom loves your stuff." President Bush, May 4, 2002

 

V. The campaign to discredit President Bush (NEWS1929) took an interesting turn: Ozzy Osbourne starred in a concert in which he terribly bashed President Bush -- the very man who had specially honored him and his filthy Satanic Rocker music just two short years ago!

Let us review the current story first:

"NEWS BRIEF: "Ozzy Joins Bush Bash With Hitler Montage", Drudge Report, July 16, 2004

"Rocker Ozzy Osbourne took Jones Beach, NY last night on what is quickly becoming a predictable Bush-bashing express. Osbourne opened his concert with the song 'War Pigs', featuring a video portrait comparing Bush to Adolph Hitler ... Ozzy also flashed a picture of Bush with a clown nose, caption: 'The White House Circus'."

Seeing Hollywood and Rock stars severely criticizing Republican candidates or office holders is nothing new; what is new about Ozzy Osbourne criticizing President Bush is that he was greatly honored by the President in both April and May, 2002. Have you forgotten the story? In NEWS1758, we broke the story. Let us examine excerpts of it now.

NEWS BRIEF: "Ozzy Osbourne 'invited to White House'", BBC News, 4 April, 2002.

"Wildman rocker Ozzy Osbourne has been invited to dinner at the White House by US president George W Bush, according to reports."

When a president invites a private party to dinner with him at the White House, that is a very great honor! Not many people get this kind of special treatment. Thus, this invitation along demonstrates the special high regard in which President Bush holds Ozzy Osbourne.

This private dinner party at the White House for Ozzy and Sharon occurred April 4, 2002. Almost exactly one month later, Bush honored Ozzy again.

NEWS BRIEF: "OZZY'S WHITE HOUSE -- Bush's Headbanger's Ball", The Drudge Report, Sunday May 5, 2002.

"WASHINGTON -- "With lighters waving in the air, the revelers demanded an encore to the Bloomberg party. Rock on and a marathon set, for those who gathered in the nation's capital this weekend for the annual dinner of the White House Correspondents Association Bush's Headbanger's Ball. When White House key adviser Karl Rove made his entrance into the ballroom at the Hilton Hotel, few noticed. But when 'gothmetalrockerTVstar' Ozzy Osbourne made his entrance: Flash bulbs and pandemonium. Ozzy, who was guest of freshly-healed Greta Van Susteren of the FOX NEWS CHANNEL, parted the A-list sea as his security shouted, 'Move the f#@k out of the way' to black-tied invited dignitaries, like senators, congressmen and cabinet officials."

Even when the Ozzy entourage had entered the grounds of the White House, they could not restrain themselves; they had to shout the most obscene of obscenities, as noted above. But, why should we be surprised? This kind of speaking is part of the inner heart and soul of Rock-n-Roll. Osbourne's security men obviously were not worried that their boss -- Ozzy Osbourne -- would be upset by their language; indeed, no news report indicated that Ozzy was upset enough to reprimand them, or to apologize to the president and the American people he represents, for Ozzy uses the "F---" word quite regularly.

Let us now go back to this news article:

"While dessert was being served Ozzy Osbourne, and wife Sharon, were urgently ushered to the stage rope line for a face to face with the Commander in Chief ... 'The thing about Ozzy is, he's made a lot of big hit recordings: Party With the Animals, Sabbath Bloody Sabbath, Face in Hell, Black Skies and Bloodbath in Paradise, Ozzy, Mom loves your stuff, President Bush announced." [Ibid. Title should be "Facing Hell"]

I could not believe my eyes as I read this quote from President Bush! Here he was, speaking approvingly of some of the most blatant Satanic lyrics the world has ever seen, sung by a man who bit the heads off chickens and doves as part of his Heavy Metal Satanic Rock routine! No genuinely Born Again believer in Jesus Christ -- inhabited by the pure Holy Spirit -- would ever speak approvingly of lyrics such as these, or honor such a performer!

This spiritual fruit is so rotten you can smell the sulfur and brimstone straight from the Pit of Hell. Let us review these lyrics, so you can judge for yourself. Please take a moment to read NEWS1758 carefully, for the lyrics of which Bush is so proud are straight from the pit of the Abyss! We take the time to show the lyrics of these songs President Bush loves so much.

 

VI. The situation in Iraq turned into a big, bloody mess last week. Let us attempt to recount the most important developments.

A. The Mosul governor was assassinated as he was being driven to work. This killing continued the effort by the insurgency to kill Iraqi citizens and leaders who are cooperating with Coalition Forces.

NEWS BRIEF: "Thousands of Iraqis Mourn Slain Governor", Yahoo News, July 15, 2004

"MOSUL, Iraq - Wailing and beating their chests, thousands of Iraqis on Thursday mourned the assassination of Gov. Osama Youssef Kashmoula, a university professor who briefly became one of the country's most powerful men. A six-mile cortege followed the slain leader's coffin through Mosul, the largest city in Nineveh, the vast province he had governed. American troops and Iraqi national guard forces protected the procession. Helicopters hovered over the mourners. Kashmoula was gunned down Wednesday as his convoy traveled to Baghdad for meetings with police officials on improving security."

Scarcely had the country absorbed this high-profile murder than the insurgents struck again.

B. A huge car bomb blasted a checkpoint outside the Coalition Headquarters in Baghdad, also known as the Green Zone.

NEWS BRIEF: "11 killed in Baghdad blast", Gulf News, July 15, 2004

"Baghdad, Iraq: A suicide attacker detonated a massive car bomb yesterday outside the fortified enclave housing the Iraqi government's headquarters and the U.S. and British embassies, killing at least 11 and wounding 40 ... The bombing was the worst attack in Baghdad since the United States handed power to an Iraqi interim government June 28. The violence sent a strong signal that Iraqi insurgents view the new government, which is just beginning to assert its authority, as an extension of the U.S. Occupation."

This blast occurred very close to the Iraq government's headquarters, as the story, above, indicates. Interim Iraqi officials had to have taken the location of this attack as a direct warning against them continuing to serve the interests of the Coalition. In fact, the Prime Minister surely has gotten the message, for his home was nearly hit by mortar fire week before last!

C. On the very same day, a bomb blast occurred at the police building in the town of Haditha, killing 10.

NEWS BRIEF: "Iraq police station bomb kills 10", BBC News, 15 July 2004

"A car bomb has exploded near the main police station and government offices in the Iraqi town of Haditha, killing at least 10 people and injuring 27. The explosion happened as the police were beginning their morning shift, an interior ministry official said. Police apparently thwarted a second car bomb in Karbala,while northern and southern pipelines were attacked."

Can you see now why so many police are either reluctant to serve or are quitting?

D. Clearly, the Interim Government was under unprecedented attack last week. The Prime Minister Allawi earlier had announced a package of new security measures allowing the prime minister to impose martial law. Listen to this story.

NEWS BRIEF: "'An alarm bell is sounding ': The interim government's new security measures worried some observers", The Guardian (London), July 9, 2004

"Iraq's interim government is only in its second week of independent life and already an alarm bell is sounding. On Wednesday [it] announced a package of new security measures allowing the prime minister, Ayad Allawi, to [impose] martial law ... While the security priority is clearly understandable ... the insurgents ... cannot be defeated by military means alone ... Where the might of the US armed forces failed, what hope can there be for Iraq's security apparatus - unless the country is again ruled by brutality centred in Baghdad? The measures introduced to enforce security could be feeding the insurgency ... The new security law gives the government sweeping powers of arrest, and wide powers to monitor communications."

Did you catch the fear expressed in this story?

"... what hope can there be for Iraq's security apparatus - unless the country is again ruled by brutality centred in Baghdad?"

Is this why we invaded Iraq? To turn the government back to Iraqi leadership so they could be "again ruled by brutality centred in Baghdad?"

E. Hostages continued to be taken by Iraqi insurgents. An undetermined number of hostages have been beheaded and at least one American ally has agreed to pull out of Iraq. When you review these news stories, you will understand that the Iraqi insurgency has targeted every government aiding Coalition Forces. They have captured Japanese, South Koreans and other nationalities. They released most of these hostages (the poor South Korean the one exception), but now they seem to be getting more serious.

NEWS BRIEF: "Bulgaria firm over hostage threat", BBC News, 9 July 2004

"Bulgaria has vowed it will not change its policies on Iraq after two of its nationals were taken hostage by militants and threatened with death ... A Filipino was taken hostage earlier and threatened with death unless his country pulls troops out in 72 hours. "

NEWS BRIEF: "Freed Pakistani hostage says he saw three captives being beheaded", Yahoo News, July 10, 2004

"ISLAMABAD (AFP) - A Pakistani man freed by Iraqi insurgents last week said he saw three men being beheaded by his captors while he was held captive for eight days ... "I was locked in a room with a window and I saw a fat Iraqi man beheading three people, two of them English-speaking, with a sword," Amjad Hafeez told AFP Saturday, speaking by telephone from Rawalpindi."

NEWS BRIEF: "Filipino hostage released, gov't says forces will leave Iraq", The Jerusalem Post, July 10, 2004

"Insurgents in Iraq have freed a Filipino truck driver whom they kidnapped and threatened to behead, the Philippine labor secretary quoted the president as saying Saturday. The announcement came just hours after President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo's spokesman said the Southeast Asian country's small peacekeeping contingent in Iraq would be withdrawn when its stint ends August 20."

Later, the Philippine government accelerated their timetable to leave Iraq. The insurgents won this terror battle.

NEWS BRIEF: "Saudi firm to quit Iraq to save Egyptian", Gulf News,

"Riyadh, Saudi Arabia: A Saudi company said yesterday it would pull out of Iraq to meet the demands of kidnappers holding an Egyptian truck driver hostage. 'We are withdrawing from Iraq immediately to save the life of our driver Mr Mohammed Gharabawi', Faisal al-Neheit, owner of Faisal al-Neheit Transport Company told Reuters. 'We ask them to release him immediately', Neheit earlier said in an appeal on Arabic satellite television Al Jazeera."

NEWS BRIEF: "Headless Corpse in Orange Jumpsuit Found in Iraq", Yahoo News, July 15, 2004

"BAGHDAD (Reuters) - A headless corpse dressed in an orange jumpsuit has been found by Iraqi police in the Tigris River and handed over to U.S. forces, but it has not yet been identified, a U.S. military spokeswoman said Thursday. She said it was not known whether the body was that of a Bulgarian hostage killed by his captors earlier this week. A deadline for the threatened execution of a second Bulgarian hostage passed last night without news. The body was found near Baiji, 112 miles north of Baghdad, Wednesday night. 'The body had been decapitated. It was dressed in an orange jumpsuit', the spokeswoman said."

These beheadings seem to be following one distinct pattern: the victims are dressed in the same type of orange jumpsuit which American interrogators use in military prisons in Iraq. Unless the Iraqi insurgents are buying these orange jumpsuits from the same supplier the Americans are using, we have to seriously wonder if the Iraqis are beheading these men, or if special forces working for the Illuminati are carrying out the murders. Is the orange jumpsuit an Illuminati "calling card"?

In NEWS1917, we noted that a strong group of Arabic Masonic lodges featured a beheading ritual, with a symbol of a man's decapitated head being held in one hand of an unseen executioner, while an Arabic sword was held in the other hand. The similarities with this beheading ritual and what was occurring in Iraq seemed so close as to be unnerving. One interesting note is that this beheading ritual was prominent in only three degrees within this special Arabic Masonic group -- Degrees nine through eleven. When written out, you get 9/11. Is this just coincidence? You be the judge in your own heart.

G. Oil pipelines continued to be hit this past week. It seems that, just as soon as repairs are finished, another debilitating attack occurs. The insurgency clearly wants to limit oil revenues to the new Iraqi government.

NEWS BRIEF: "Iraqi Oil Lines Sabotaged", Fox News, July 15, 2004

"BAGHDAD, Iraq — Saboteurs drilled holes into a key southern pipeline in Iraq, causing pools of oil to spill on either side of the line, police said Thursday. The breach in the line occurred in the al-Askari district, 12 miles southwest of Basra, said Staff Brig. Gen. Ali al-Mousawi, the head of the Iraqi Border Police ... Elsewhere, an explosion damaged a portion of a pipeline running between two northern cities, police said. The explosion on the northern pipeline, which feeds the Beiji refinery about 125 miles north of Baghdad, forced the shutdown of the line ... The line was reportedly still on fire. The damage to the pipelines come a little more than a week after exports were cut in half by damage to the smaller of two key export pipelines."

 

VII. More allegations have surfaced concerning the torture and sexual degradation scandal in American military prisons in Iraq. Just when you thought the news could not get any worse, they suddenly did!

NEWS BRIEF: "'Secret film shows Iraq prisoners sodomised' ", By Charles Arthur, Technology Editor, Independent.co.uk, 16 July 2004

"Young male prisoners were filmed being sodomised by American soldiers at the Abu Ghraib prison near Baghdad, according to the journalist who first revealed the abuses there. Seymour Hersh, who reported on the torture of the prisoners in New Yorker magazine in May, told an audience in San Francisco that 'it's worse'. But he added that he would reveal the extent of the abuses: 'I'm not done reporting on all this', he told a meeting of the American Civil Liberties Union. He said: 'The boys were sodomised with the cameras rolling, and the worst part is the soundtrack, of the boys shrieking. And this is your government at war'.He accused the US administration, and all but accused President George Bush and Vice-President Dick Cheney of complicity in covering up what he called 'war crimes'."

Seasoned interrogators will tell you that torture does not force a prisoner to give his interrogator the quality intelligence the military can use. Rather, he or she will simply tell their torturers what they think they want to hear, hoping to end the pain and humiliation. This fact has been reported over and over again since the news of this scandal broke on the first of the Satanic holy day of Beltane, April 30, 2004.

Therefore, the intent of this kind of sexual humiliation can only be to inflict pain and humiliation simply for the sake of inflicting pain and humiliation! We have reported our belief that one of the objectives of our invasion of Afghanistan and Iraq is to so anger Muslims throughout the world that their leaders will decide to wage war on "The Great Satan", even though they know they have no chance of winning the war. When the war is joined, Western forces will have the opportunity to annihilate entire armies and inflict enormous civilian casualties as well.

This strategy is called "Blood In The Streets". Once you understand that this is the goal, this type of nonsensical torture and sexual humiliation of Muslim prisoners begins to make sense. Muslims have always considered the "Christian West" to be morally bankrupt; this sexual humiliation scandal seems to be causing the anger of the Muslims to rise steadily against the West. On the other hand, the beheading of hostages by "Muslim" militants is driving the anger of Westerners higher and higher against everything Muslim.

The only question is when will the "critical mass" point be reached? The "Clash of Civilizations" may be close at hand. Just as the Illuminati planned.

 

VIII. Prime Minister Sharon seemed very close this week to reaching an agreement with Liberal Labor head, Shimon Peres, to form a national unity government. Only such a government could provide the stability necessary to accomplish the really hard task of uprooting militant Jewish settlers from their towns so the unilateral retreat from Gaza and portions of the West Bank can be carried out.

NEWS BRIEF: "Sharon and Peres Engage for Disengagement and… Longevity", DEBKAfile Intelligence, July 12, 2004

"Neither prime minister Ariel Sharon, 76, nor opposition leader Shimon Peres, 81, stands to lose much by their partnership to rescue the tottering Likud-led minority government from being swept out of office. Alone, neither retains much voter appeal. Together, the two old warhorses are capable of wringing another lease of life from their reluctant parties. The horsetrading is already in high gear, trampling over policy differences and ideological distinctions in their forward rush ... Without Labor, the vote in cabinet and parliament would surely go against the issue on which Sharon has staked all his prestige: withdrawal from the Gaza Strip. With Labor, it’s in the bag - plus long-life insurance for the government from an extra 22 Labor Knesset Members on paper, barring about half a dozen dissenters. The Lik-Lab coalition supported by Shinui will command in theory 75 members of the 120-member Knesset, a comfortable majority - even allowing for substantial dissent in all three parties."

"If the deal is struck between them, Peres may even persuade the prime minister to bring forward the cabinet vote on settlement removal – why wait till March? And so cut the ground from under the pro-settlement factions and their powerful lobby ... The next maneuver may well be a snap general election to buy the three veterans another four years in office at the head of a durable government. This troika could go all the way and form the nucleus of a new centrist party bloc that will isolate the far right and leave Sharon free to execute his disengagement-cum-evacuation plan unhindered."

Sharon is nearning the end of his sell-out of his Conservative constituency, who elected him in order to end the war on Israel's terms. Rather, Sharon has merely continued the Oslo Accord plan to unilaterally retreat, even as he continued to wear the false label, "War General, Conservative Sharon".

Once Sharon and Peres have the kind of durable government they need, watch for the pace to accelerate to evacuate all the outposts sitting in Palestinian territory to be quickly removed. In this regard, one news story has reported that the IDF has concluded that they will need 1,500 soldiers to evacuate every 100 settlers!

NEWS BRIEF: "World Muslim Brotherhood Calls to Arms to Thwart Gaza Evacuation", DEBKAfile Exclusive Report, July 14, 2004

"As Sharon and Peres geared up for a partnership bent on pulling settlers and military out of the Gaza Strip with all possible speed, ex-police commissioner Shlomo Aharonishky announced that before he retired, he had set up “a steering committee” to plot the evacuation of settlements – 21 in the Gaza Strip and 4 in the northern West Bank, according to the Sharon plan. He then remarked casually that, in the view of police experts, the ratio of police and security officers per unwilling settler is: 1,500 to 100 settlers. He did not do the arithmetic out loud, but it is simple enough. The removal of the Gaza Strip’s 7,500 settlers would call for 112,500 security and police officers - an entire army."

Can you imagine tiny Israel using 112,500 IDF soldiers to forcibly remove recalcitrant settlers from their illegal outposts? Civil War must be a concern in the heart of little Israel as she retreats back behind the Green Line, becoming as small as she was in 1967 before the Six-Day War. Both Jew and Palestinian are in opposition to this unilateral withdrawal. You can understand the opposition by the Jews to the dismantling of their beloved country, but why would the Palestinians and Muslims be so opposed? After all, Sharon's unilateral withdrawal plan seems to be rewarding terrorist Arafat for all his years of suicide attacks.

Palestinian and Muslim leadership knows that Israel plans to separate the populations and then annihilate all Palestinians in fulfillment of Obadiah 15-18 and Isaiah 34 (Read NEWS1422 and NEWS1620). I am positive that the Palestinians know what is in store for them, as a public letter by a Jewish professor revealed (NEWS1625) his belief that Sharon was planning an "ethnic cleansing" of the Arabs in the Land of Israel.

The Palestinians know what is coming; the resistant Jewish settlers haven't a clue. But, stern End of the Age Bible prophecy is about to be fulfilled.

 

IX. The extent of America's moral collapse was symbolized last week by one news story.

NEWS BRIEF: "University Establishes Scholarship for Black Homosexual Activists", By Leslie Wetzel, Talon News, July 15, 2004, http://www.gopusa.com/news/2004/july/0715_black_gay_scholarship.shtml

"LANSING, MI (Talon News) -- A new scholarship for black homosexual activists will be available next Spring at Michigan State University (MSU) and will be administered by the school's Office of Financial Aid and Office of Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Trans-gender (LGBT) Concerns. The scholarship was warmly welcomed by such campus groups as the MSU Same Gender Loving Students of Color, Internationals, and Allies and the Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, and Trans-gender Faculty, Staff, and Graduate Student Association..."

Sodom and Gomorrah supported the homosexual lifestyle at every level of government and society. Their schools certainly taught that homosexuality was just as valid as heterosexuality. This belief so permeated these cities that the men and boys surrounding Lot's house thought nothing of publicly raping the angelic beings God sent to the city to rescue Lot. Why was it that these men and boys felt no fear from the police? Because there were no laws against public sex and probably even public rape. And, why were there no laws against this behavior? Because every organization and educational establishment believed homosexuality was just as valid as heterosexuality.

Western society are getting close to becoming Sodom, thus fulfilling a key End of the Age prophecy:

" Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot ... Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is revealed." [Luke 17:28, 30]

 

Truly, we are living in the last of the Last Days? Are you spiritually ready?

---------Conclusion----------------"How much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask Him?" (Matt. 7:11)

Jesus is laying down rules of conduct for those who have His Spirit. By the simple argument of these verses He urges us to keep our minds filled with the notion of God's control behind everything which means that the disciple must maintain an attitude of perfect trust and an eagerness to ask and to seek.

Notion your mind with the idea that God is there. If once the mind is notioned along that line, then when you are in difficulties it is as easy as breathing to remember Why, my Father knows all about it! It is not an effort, it comes naturally when perplexities press. Before, you used to go to this person and that, but now the notion of the Divine control is forming so powerfully in you that you go to God about it. Jesus is laying down the rules of conduct for those who have His Spirit, and it works on this principle - God is my Father, He loves me, I shall never think of anything He will forget, why should I worry?

There are times, says Jesus, when God cannot lift the darkness from you, but trust Him. God will appear like an unkind friend, but He is not; He will appear like an unnatural Father, but He is not; He will appear like an unjust judge, but He is not. Keep the notion of the mind of God behind all things strong and growing. Nothing happens in any particular unless God's will is behind it, therefore you can rest in perfect confidence in Him. Prayer is not only asking, but an attitude of mind which produces the atmosphere in which asking is perfectly natural. "Ask, and it shall be given you." ["My Utmost For His Highest", Oswald Chambers]
