The Russians called a security conference with Washington and NATO. The Russians explained that security is a joint undertaking and that security only exists if every country feels secure. The CIA responded with accusations against Russia handed to the CIA-puppet Biden regime and the CIA-puppet US media. The national security advisor read the script to us peons: Russia intends a false flag attack on its own troops so that it will have an excuse to invade Ukraine.
The national security advisor is so stupid that it does not occur to him that if Russia wants to invade Ukraine Russia will. Russia needs no excuse, and there is no one in Washington or NATO who can do anything about it.

The Russians explained that they do not feel secure. They are constantly demonized, sanctioned on the basis of accusations in the Western press, and their president insulted. Military maneuvers are conducted on their borders, and the US Navy is in the Black Sea where it has no purpose to be. Washington broke its word given to Gorbachev and has not only moved NATO to Russia’s borders but also established missile bases in Poland and Romania. Washington has overthrown the Ukraine government in an attempt to evict Russia from her Black Sea naval base, established a puppet Ukrainian government hostile to Russia and to the Russian population of eastern Ukraine, and is gradually invading Ukraine economically and militarily with Americans on the ground training Ukrainians in the use of the American supplied arms.

On top of all of this, Washington and NATO are talking about making Ukraine, formerly a province of Russia, and another former province of Russia, Georgia, members of NATO which shows indications of ringing Russia with bases in preparation for war.

Russia explained that the situation is so threatening that it is unacceptable. During the long Cold War the two powers tried to reduce tensions by stabilizing the relationship, but in the 21st century Washington has disavowed all the arms control agreements that were accomplished in the 20th century, and has behaved aggressively toward Russia.

Russia explained that she will no longer tolerate the implied threat of US/NATO bases on her borders and most certainly will not permit Ukraine and Georgia to be members of NATO. Any move by the West in this direction will result in “dire consequences.”

As an old cold warrior as a member of the anti-Soviet Committee on the Present Danger and as a member of a secret presidential committee that helped Reagan end the Cold War, I can tell you that I am astonished that Washington has not heard what the Russians have, in all frankness, told them.

If the Committee on the President Danger had heard the Russians say this in the 1980s, we would have told President Reagan to acknowledge their concern and reduce the tension.

Today the situation is so different that to an experienced cold warrior such as myself it is extremely scary. But the idiots in Washington, who face a far more powerful Russia armed with weapons that Washington can only dream about, have no fear. Washington, the collection of the most stupid and arrogant people in the world, is exposing human life to untold risk on the sole basis of Washington’s belief in its own omnipotence.

Washington is so lacking in omnipotence that its belief in it is a sign of insanity.

According to Russian news reports, Russia is moving four entire armies from the far east to the Western fount. These four armies, even without those already present in western Russia, are sufficient to instantly destroy any force NATO and the US can muster and overrun all of Europe in a few days.

Moreover, Russia can likely mobilize 10 million troops quickly, and China, whose president has stated publicly that China has more than a treaty agreement with Russia, can mobilize 50 million soldiers. NATO, for all the bluster of its idiot Secretary General, has zero prospect of withstanding Russia in non-nuclear war.

This means, and the Kremlin knows this, that to save face Washington would have to go nuclear. This would mean the total destruction of the US and Europe. They would cease to exist.

For Russia with its extensive anti-missile defenses and nuclear bunkers for 40-50% of targeted populations, the war would be disastrous, but Russia would survive.

Russia does not want such a war. Russia doesn’t want to destroy anyone, not even Ukraine. Russia has asked for a security guarantee. That is all.

If we experience Armageddon, it will be only because Washington refused a security guarantee to Russia.

Forty-five percent of Democrats liked the idea of limiting the spread of the virus “by having federal or state governments require that citizens temporarily live in designated facilities or locations if they refuse to get a COVID-19 vaccine.”

Nearly half of Democrats, 48%, believe that “federal and state governments should be able to fine or imprison individuals who publicly question the efficacy of the existing COVID-19 vaccines on social media, television, radio, or in online or digital publications.” [from NEWSMAX]

If you don’t think we’re in a civil war of some kind, I suppose you’ll just need a little more time to see this all play out.

I believe the number is higher than 59 percent, and that some would favor even harsher measures. It’s not about vaccines. It’s about compelling people to obey a totalitarian regime, which the overwhelming majority of “Democrats” want.

A number of people wrote on my social media threads that the number simply CAN’T be this high, even among Democrats. They cite Biden’s unpopularity (33 percent, and sinking) as evidence.

Biden may be unpopular — he surely is — but this doesn’t mean that most Democrats still don’t want totalitarian statism. If they’re turning on Biden, it’s only because he’s not delivering. It’s really important to understand that most of your Democrat-Communist friends, associates, neighbors and relatives really don’t care what happens to you; not if you disagree with them on anything.

It’s probably not inaccurate to claim that more Democrats than not would have you rounded up and put into some kind of detention context — certainly if you’re unvaccinated, and probably for other crimes against the state, as well. If you think Biden’s ineptitude changes all that, then you’re wrong. The question is not whether most Democrats and leftists WANT you punished. Their unequivocal support for having people fired from their jobs for being Trump supporters is proof enough of that. The only question is how much of it they’re going to get. They may abandon Biden, but then they’ll search for a REAL dictator to do the job.

If you doubt me, then just watch to see what happens with the supposed upcoming elections.

Rev. 13:7 reads, “And it was given unto him (the Antichrist) to make war with the saints [the people that get saved after the Rapture], and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations.”

The Antichrist will rule over all kindreds, tongues, and nations (rule over a world government including the U.S.).

The government of Antichrist must be more powerful than the government of America.

America must give or lose its sovereignty, and that is what globalism and the New World Order are about.

It is important for us to know that the UN has agreed to establish a world government by 2030 or sooner.

If God allows globalists to establish a world government by 2030, the Rapture will happen before that.

A reader sent the following link to a video that some may want to watch.

According to the video:

*Today, Americans are free to do what they want to do except where they are prohibited by law.

*Covid vaccine passports are being used to change the way things are done today so that Americans will soon be under a new and different system that will not allow them to do anything except that which the government has given them permission to do.

*Getting fully vaccinated will not prevent Americans from being subject to the rules of this coming new system. Permission to travel, eat at a restaurant, work, buy, etc., will be dependent upon one’s obeying the government’s new rules, and the new rules will be changed as often as the government wants to change them.

*If something happens and a citizen is a day or two late getting their next vaccination or booster shot, they will already be out of the system and blocked from traveling, eating out, etc.

*Even worse, this system is being designed to be expanded, it is already being used in China, and it is coming to America and the whole world soon.

*What Americans are experiencing today is just a taste of what is coming.

*Big tech companies are already monitoring, collecting, and saving vast amounts of information on everyone.

*Surveillance cameras are everywhere, but something worse is coming: punishment for those seen breaking the new government requirements.

*Once vaccine passports become the law, punishment will come, and there will be no going back.

*Freedom will be extinguished.

*Will Americans allow this generation to be the end of freedom?

Below are some events that made the news this week.

One, concerning the decline of America: on Jan. 6, 2022, it was reported that a new poll found that 76.8% of respondents (more than three out of four) now believe that “American society and culture are in a state of decay.”

It was Pres. Obama (not this writer) that said, “We are five days away from fundamentally transforming the United States of America.”

It was Joe Biden (not this writer) that said, “The affirmative task we have now is to actually create a new world order” (world government).

Two, concerning the coming godless world government, world religion, and persecution of Christians: on Jan. 8, 2022, it was reported that a coalition of prominent evangelical pastors in Canada has come out against a new Canadian law (Bill C-4) that will allow the criminal prosecution of Christians that speak out against homosexuality and transgenderism in Canada.

The group voiced their opposition to the bill by posting a letter criticizing the Canadian Members of Parliament for rushing through a bill without debate or public comment that defines Bible teaching on sexuality and gender as a “myth.”

According to the law, those that believe the “myth” that there are only 2 genders (male and female) and say they believe it can be threatened with 5 years in jail.

Three, for those that think the Bible is a book of myths, on Dec. 19, 2021, it was reported that new research on an ancient aqueduct in Jerusalem suggests that the aqueduct was built by Pontius Pilate (the Roman leader that governed Israel from about 26-27 AD to about 36-37 AD).

According to the Bible, Pontius Pilate condemned Jesus to death.

The fact that archaeology continues to confirm Bible dates, places, names, teachings, etc., is very important.

Four, concerning perilous times and world government (a borderless world): on Jan. 7, 2022, the 2-year anniversary of America’s assassination of Gen. Qassem Soleimani, commander of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, his replacement vowed to retaliate against Americans inside their homes in the U.S.

Despite this threat to send terrorists to attack American citizens inside the U.S., America’s border with Mexico remains wide open for the terrorists to enter.

Five, Jan. 1, 2022, was the sabbath in Israel, and the Jewish Scripture for that day was about the seventh plague in Egypt (Hail and fire; Ex. 9:18-26).

While Jews were in the Synagogues reading the Scriptures, “quail-size” hailstones and lightning (flashing fire) were falling in an Egyptian town on the Red Sea.

Whether this was a coincidence or a message from God is debatable, but it is a fact that Jews believe God will send plagues at the end of the age, and this happened.

Six, concerning a peace treaty in the Middle East that will begin the Tribulation Period: on Jan. 10, 2022, a bipartisan group of House and Senate members launched a Caucus to strengthen the normalization agreements that several Arab nations have signed with Israel and to “widen the circle of peace” between Israel and other nations.

Seven, concerning famine: on Jan. 8, 2022, it was reported that several U.S. supermarkets are reporting incidents of empty shelves and a growing concern over a possible shortage of meat, eggs, and potatoes.

(More: It was reported that McDonald’s in Japan has stopped selling large and medium orders of French Fries (it is small or nothing), Kentucky Fried Chicken in Kenya has removed French Fries from their menu, and potato chip producers in South Africa are having trouble getting enough potatoes to produce their chips.)

(More: on Jan.10, 2022, it was reported that it might be months, perhaps 6 months, before some store shelves are restocked to normal levels.)

(More: on Jan. 12, 2022, it was reported that inflation has caused a 7% rise in prices compared to one year ago. This is the largest increase in 40 years.)

Eight, concerning deceit and wickedness: on Jan. 12, 2022, it was reported that leaked military documents from the Defense Advanced Research Project Agency (DARPA) appear to show that Ivermectin and Hydroxychloroquine were identified as curatives for Covid (as medicines that will cure Covid) in April 2020.

If this is true, someone needs to be held accountable for denying access to a cure for Covid from citizens.

Medical personnel that have lost their jobs for providing their patients with access to Ivermectin and/Hydroxychloroquine should be compensated and restored.

Here is a link to the article.

Nine, on Jan. 12, 2022, it was reported that Washington State will hold a Zoom meeting today to discuss an amendment to a state law that will allow officials to arrest and hold unvaccinated citizens against their will in internment camps.

Internment camps are already being used in China and Australia, and this could be the beginning of their use in the U.S.

(Note: My article will be sent to the Rapture Ready editor before I know the result of the Washington State meeting.)

Ten, this may not relate to Bible prophecy, but on Jan. 11, 2022, it was reported that Covid caused a 34% decline in new blood donors last year, prompting the Red Cross to declare a national blood crisis for the first time.

Finally, are you Rapture Ready?

If you want to be rapture ready and go to heaven, you must be born again (John 3:3). God loves you, and if you have not done so, sincerely admit that you are a sinner; believe that Jesus is the virgin-born, sinless Son of God who died for the sins of the world, was buried, and raised from the dead; ask Him to forgive your sins, cleanse you, come into your heart and be your Saviour; then tell someone that you have done this.

COVID fascism is evil. COVID hysteria is a sickness — a mental one, not a physical one. Increasingly, I see evidence in support of an underlying cause for the mental sickness. People — millions of them, perhaps 30-40 percent or more of Americans — WANT a calamity. Things were going SO well in 2019. Those who miss those times are NOT the mentally sick ones. The mentally sick ones are the ones who don’t feel there’s meaning or purpose in their lives unless there’s a disaster. They WANT a modern-day Great Depression; or World War II. These are the people who use the word “pandemic” over and over and over again…And these are the same people who want everyone to know they got vaccinated; but they also LIKE telling people, “Oh, I tested positive for COVID.” Sure, in 99 percent of cases or more either they don’t get sick, or their sickness is no worse than an aggravating cold or flu. But they never used to tell the world they had a cold or the flu. With COVID, it’s different. COVID is a badge of honor. “Look at me. I’m suffering. I’m sacrificing. I mean something. My life means something. It’s all for the Cause.”

It’s deeper than politics. Of course, the type of people I describe are overwhelmingly if not exclusively Democrat-Communist. That’s because the Democrat-Communist “progressive” movement is all about suffering, sacrifice and giving up. They hate capitalism — even though they happily accept its comforts and wealth — so COVID gives them an opportunity to undermine and disparage prosperity. “Oh, it’s a terrible thing. The world is suffering. So much selfishiness! People are so bad! But what an opportunity for us to pull together.” Of course, it’s B.S. The same people who spout this crap are the ones now on the verge of creating political dissension camps for the unvaccinated, those who voted for Trump, and those who don’t want their children taught Marxism and racism in government-run schools. They don’t care anything about community spirit. But they love the opportunity to see people suffer because — well, because they are sick. And they are sick because they feel life isn’t worth anything unless people are suffering — perhaps even themselves.

I have known and written of all these themes for three decades now. I have seen these themes play out in the clinical depression and anxiety disorders I have counseled people for over many years. But I never, ever envisioned that I would be living in a time when America would be so consumed by such a mentality that we would almost overnight morph into something very close to a totalitarian dictatorship.

Mental health matters. I’m a psychotherapist, and I always knew that. But I never knew how much until I lived through America, and the whole Western world, going insane.
