"The US carried out a dress rehearsal to test the weapons a few days before the actual raids on Iraq. The 66 bombs launched by US navy aircraft achieved 100% success. In [real] action, they chalked up an 80% failure rate ... With global positioning, the weapons should be spot on target. But if you can emit a powerful enough signal to alter the satellite information being received by the bomb on its final approach, accuracy goes out of the window. Against hardened military sites, you need a direct hit to be sure of a kill. An aim point error of just a couple of hundred yards spells the difference between total destruction and a light peppering with shrapnel and minimum blast damage."

Apparently, the Serbian Communists who fought against U.S. forces have been sharing data with Saddam Hussein.  Serbian forces were able to learn much of our technology during this air war against them, and developed certain strategies that countered much of our technological advantage.  This article concludes with just such a strategy:

"The latest Iraqi trick of targeting allied aircraft with long-range radars and then launching missiles at them from unrelated positions was pioneered by the Serbs during UN intervention in Bosnia and Nato's aerial assault during the Kosovo conflict. They [Serbs] downed one British Harrier, an American F16 and a Nighthawk F117, the first stealth aircraft ever shot down in combat. US sources say privately that it is 'only a matter of time' before the technique brings results for Saddam Hussein."

As I stated in NEWS1474, Hussein's military commanders tested US and Israeli defenses and intelligence capabilities on February 22, when he took his theater missiles right up to the last stage of firing before he shut them down.  Now, Iraqi military commanders know exactly what we can and cannot detect, how much time it takes us to react, and from which direction our counterattack will come.  All of this is a prelude to war; and now, we discover that Iraq has learned to defeat our smart bombs and to inflict some casualties among the American and Israeli attacking aircraft. 

 But, the worst revelation is yet to come -- Iraq is reportedly nuclear-capable right now! 

NEWS BRIEF:  "Was This Saddam's Bomb?", Prophezine Newsbites, 26 February 2001, originally in www.sunday-times.co.uk/news/pages/sti/2001/02/25/stirevnws01015.html 

"Intelligence agencies, including Israel's Mossad, insist that Saddam has never had the technology or the fuel to fulfil his ambition of creating a nuclear arsenal. Yet Leone, and other defectors who have corroborated his story, insist that Saddam not only has nuclear weapons but has tested them." 

If this story is true, then Saddam Hussein has the capability right now to annihilate Israel, if he can only deliver the warheads he is reported to possess.  Thus, the story of the Iraqi theater missiles recently parked near the Syrian border take on greater significance.  Remember the charade we all were forced to endure as United Nations "inspectors" were tromping all over Iraq to discover any evidence that Hussein was building nuclear, chemical, and biological weapons, so we could destroy them?  Remember how Hussein regularly defied the inspectors, with the U.N. meekly submitting to his belligerence?  I believed then that this whole inspection nonsense was a public charade, and now this story confirms it. 

Iraq has reportedly been mightily assisted in this effort by the Russians, and were able to buy the fissionable material from the International Black Market.  Even as his people starved to death, Hussein was able to spend oil money like a drunken sailor to buy what he needed, for bribing officials from Brazil to South Africa when he needed, and to hide his weapons program from a United Nations inspection team that always gave him more slack than they ever should have given. 

Remember that Hussein in the highest-ranking Freemason in the Arab world which means that he is fully cooperating with the Illuminati in its plan to produce Antichrist.  Thus, Hussein's Masonry plus his leadership in the plan to produce Antichrist is also the reason President George Bush [Senior] pulled American forces off the attack on Baghdad, just when they were within 72 hours of overthrowing his regime.  Now, you can see the full picture emerging, can you not?

As this story unfolds, we learn that Hussein likely has three warheads of three different technologies, each one more advanced than the previous one.  This would give him a total of nine (9) nuclear warheads.  "He [Iraqi scientist] said it worked on the principle of the Hiroshima gun-type bomb, in which high explosives drive pieces of highly enriched uranium together at high velocity. This triggers a nuclear explosion. Leone's design was unusual. The uranium was contained in a series of finely engineered tubes, like the control rods of a nuclear reactor. It was not the type of design one might find from a search of textbooks or the internet."  Hussein has three of these Hiroshima gun-type atomic bombs.

Later in this interview, the Iraqi scientist claimed that Hussein now had three implosion nuclear warheads and three thermonuclear weapons.  As I read the article, I attempted to keep a skeptical mindset, but was eventually won over by the journalist's interviews with Western experts on the many different technical aspects of the scientist's story.  These Western experts examined the Iraqi diagrams and found them credible, other experts examined the claims that the material was bought on the Black Market, and found them credible, and American experts in satellite capabilities were able to confirm this scientist's claim that the Iraqi's had carried out a test explosion before the Gulf War.  Finally, this journalist interviewed other Iraqi scientists who had defected, and was able to verify that this scientist was who he said he was, and that he was in the position of scientific leadership on the project to be able to know what he claimed to know.

Thus, this story claiming that Iraq now has nine nuclear warheads seemed exceedingly credible to me.  But, American, British, and Israeli intelligences have been telling the world for a very long time that Iraq does not have nuclear capability now, and is probably two to three years away from developing such capability.  Now that we know they have been publicly lying to us all this time, the question is whether they were also lying to key leaders within their respective governments.

However, the ultimate verification of the truthfulness of this story seems to lie in the reaction of Prime Minister Elect Ariel Sharon. This recent short story seems to indicate the truthfulness of the claims of this Iraqi scientist.  
 
NEWS BRIEF:  "Sharon:  A Plan To Strike Iraq", British Sunday Times, February 26, 2001.

"The British 'Sunday Times' daily reported in its Sunday's issue, reporting Israeli military sources that the Israeli prime minister elect Ariel Sharon gave his instructions to the Israeli army chief of staff Shaoul Mofaz to prepare for directing an early strike to the missile- launching area in the west of Iraq.The Israeli radio quoted these sources as saying to the British paper that Sharon is planning to deploy neutron ( tactical) bombs to target this Iraqi area and destroy it, as intelligence information reported that Iraq is about to attack Israel by mass-annihilation weapons."

I find it hard to believe that Israeli Intelligence did not know that Hussein already has nuclear weapons, or that they did not share this information with Israel's highest leaders.  However, Prime Minister Elect Sharon might have been attempting to assure his Jewish citizens that he was on top of the situation, and would act to preemptively take the nuclear warheads out.  The one key piece of information this news story does give us is confirmation that these nuclear weapons are placed on top of the theater missiles Hussein has placed at the Syrian border, well within range of Israeli targets.

This story also confirms that Israel does possess the Neutron Bomb, and fully intends to use it during this upcoming war.  We can also see the importance of Hussein testing the Israeli intelligence capability, the reaction time of the Israeli military, and the way in which American and Israeli bombers will attack his missiles.  Hussein has spent over $10 billion and 20 years of work in developing these nuclear warheads.  Hussein now does not want Israel to destroy the missiles on which these warheads will be launched before he can fire them.  He fully intends to fire these missiles before Israel or America can destroy them.

 CONCLUSION

These events just demonstrate the extreme closeness of the planned Third World War. The demonic vision of 1870, which foresaw the need for three (3) world wars to produce Antichrist seems close to fulfillment [Read NEWS1056 for full details on this vision].  Since the first two world wars occurred exactly in accordance with the demonic vision, we can only believe the third one will also occur exactly as envisioned.  The demonic vision foretold that the Third World War would occur between Israel and her Arab neighbors.  In 1870, Israel did not exist as a nation, and the only people who believed she would one day return were the Born Again Christians who believed their Bible literally.

This demonic World War III vision also fulfills multiple Bible prophecies [Read NEWS1035, NEWS1123, and CE1013 for full details].  Jesus warned us to be vigilant, alert, and aware of the events transpiring around us, telling the people living at the time Israel came back as a nation that they would know the End of the Age was close once they saw the events occurring of which He prophesied in Matthew 24.

These events are occurring now, in our Daily News! Are you spiritually ready? Is your family? Are you adequately protecting your loved ones? This is the reason for this ministry, to enable you to first understand the peril facing you, and then help you develop strategies to warn and protect your loved ones. Once you have been thoroughly trained, you can also use your knowledge as a means to open the door of discussion with an unsaved person. I have been able to use it many times, and have seen people come to Jesus Christ as a result. These perilous times are also a time when we can reach many souls for Jesus Christ, making an eternal difference.

If you have accepted Jesus Christ as your personal Savior, but have been very lukewarm in your spiritual walk with Him, you need to immediately ask Him for forgiveness and for renewal. He will instantly forgive you, and fill your heart with the joy of the Holy Spirit. Then, you need to begin a daily walk of prayer and personal Bible Study.

If you have never accepted Jesus Christ as Savior, but have come to realize His reality and the approaching End of the Age, and want to accept His FREE Gift of Eternal Life, you can also do so now, in the privacy of your home. Once you accept Him as Savior, you are spiritually Born Again, and are as assured of Heaven as if you were already there. Then, you can rest assured that the Kingdom of Antichrist will not touch you spiritually.

If you would like to become Born Again, turn to our Salvation Page now.

We hope you have been blessed by this ministry, which seeks to educate and warn people, so that they can see the coming New World Order -- Kingdom of Antichrist -- in their daily news.

Finally, we would love to hear from you.
