IS AMERICA FALLING APART ?

CC BY-SA 3.0,

PERILOUS TIMES are here,

Filling men’s heart with fear.

Freedoms we all hold dear, are now at stake.

JUNE 2. By Michael Snyder. - The Economic Collapse.

America is falling, and violence covers the land like a flood.

Let us cry for this once great land, because a day of reckoning is at hand.

The death of Black American, George Floyd, is an evidence of how far we have fallen; the police brutality that has gone on for way too many years, is evidence of how far we have fallen, and the out of control rioting and looting that we have been witnessing day after day, is evidence of how far we have fallen.

Of course the truth is that just about every form of evil that you can possibly imagine has been exploding in our society in recent years, and the American people just keep going back for more.

We have had an insatiable appetite for wickedness, and now we are reaping what we have sown.

Do you think that it is just a coincidence that so many of our young people are completely and utterly lawless?

We raised them in a completely upside down society that says that good is evil and evil is good, and so the way that they are behaving now shouldn’t surprise us at all.

For example, one of the most famous retail stores in the heart of New York City was absolutely mobbed by looters and descended into chaos overnight.

An overhead video showed looters racing into one of the boarded-up entrances shortly before the curfew started, with only a small unexplained explosion seeming to halt the rush.

There has been a tremendous amount of looting on the west coast as well (Michael Snyder provides many details of the forage in the US over the past couple of weeks.

And he asks, “What in the world has happened to us?”)

It is unthinkable that looters would be allowed to loot a store for 15 hours straight, but that is precisely what just happened in Philadelphia.

The owner of a West Philadelphia ShopRite says looters ravaged his store for 15 hours straight, taking whatever they wanted from the pharmacy, and cash register.

Where else in the entire world would such a thing be permitted to happen?

Once upon a time we thought of ourselves as a shining example for the rest of the planet, but now the only example we are setting is a bad one.

Four police officers were shot in St. Louis as a day of peaceful protests turned into a violent and destructive night in the city.

Then hundreds of people gathered across the St. Louis region to protest the Memorial Day death of George Floyd in Minneapolis.

And in Las Vegas, one police officer is fighting for his life after being shot in the head.

In a night of deadly violence aimed at police officers, a cop in Las Vegas was shot in the head and is now on life support.

Being a police officer in this environment is one of the hardest jobs in America.

So many of these young people have hearts that have gone completely ice cold, and they don’t seem to have respect for even the most basic human values.

A perfect example of what I am talking about just took place in Richmond, Virginia … The chief of the Richmond, Virginia, police department said that rioters set fire to a multi-family home with a child inside while blocking access for fire-fighters to get through to save the child.

And this is just one example of our cankered times.

What we desperately need to do is to fundamentally change course as a nation (repent!)

and start focusing on solutions that will give us real hope.

WASHINGTON ON FIRE: TRUMP GOES UNDERGROUND Chaos has come to the steps of the White House with reports the US President has been forced into an underground bunker, while nearby protesters set the capital alight.

The National Guard was deployed in Washington as darkness fell in major cities that were still reeling from nights of violence and destruction that began with peaceful protests over the death of a African American man, George Floyd, at the hands of police in Minneapolis.

In suburbs that surround the White House, fires burned and protesters were filmed smashing cars.

Black Lives Matter protests explode as radicals seek to exploit death of George Floyd.

This led to devastating damage, not only in Minneapolis, but across nearly the whole country.

AMERICAN PROTESTS &, MANY CITIES ON FIRE It is astounding to me, that after all the racial tensions of the past decade, that any police officer, black or white, in any police department in America, could do what police officers did in the death of George Floyd as they were arresting him.

Even more shocking still is that the officers involved were only fired.

I think they should have been arrested.

If you can’t trust the police, who are sworn to “protect and serve’', then peace in America is impossible.

Maybe at this point, it's impossible anyway.

– Geoffrey Grider, Journalist Florida.

Camera footage of police officers taking George Floyd out of his car in what looks like a traffic stop.

It ends with Floyd being held down on the ground with a police officer strangling him to death by kneeling on his neck until he could no longer breathe.

That cannot possibly be police protocol, and if it is, it is very, very wrong.

I am very much against police brutality, but at the same time, Black Lives Matter protesters cause a lot of deaths and damage.

I am very much against what they do also.

Wrong is wrong, no matter which side you are on.

The death of George Floyd is tragic and brutal, and it breaks my heart to see what happened to that man.

But what makes it worse is that the Liberals, funded by George Soros, will use this as an excuse for endless riots in the streets and more tragic deaths.

They have already begun.

We have seen this before in Dallas, Ferguson, Baltimore, Charlottesville and so many other places.

The wheels continue to come off our nation as we speed full ahead into the end times.

BUILDINGS TRASHED, BURNED DOWN ACROSS MINNEAPOLIS OVERNIGHT Dozens of buildings in Minneapolis were broken into, looted, and burned.

Authorities struggled to contain the riots, which began after protests over the death of George Floyd.

According to Minneapolis police, one person was fatally shot at Bloomington Avenue and Lake Street just after 9 p.m.

The Lake Street Target store was completely ransacked, and an Auto Zone location was burned down.

The Cub Foods at Lake Street and Hiawatha Avenue were looted.

So many buildings were burning that smoke plumes became visible on weather radars.

Around 1,000 protesters descended on Los Angeles in a Black Lives Matter protest on Wednesday evening A protester was thrown from the hood of a police cruiser in downtown Los Angeles as a Black Lives Matter demonstration calling for justice for George Floyd turned violent.

As protests entered their second day in Minnesota, tensions began building between law enforcement and African-American communities across America, with demonstrators calling for the four officers involved in Floyd's death to be charged with murder.

The first break off protest sprung up in downtown LA Wednesday afternoon and quickly escalated into violence.

Shocking aerial footage shows several protesters surrounding a California Highway Patrol cruiser and smashing the back windows on the 101 Freeway.

One protester clambered onto the hood before tumbling to the ground when the police officer drove off.

The man was seen lying motionless on the ground and covered in blood, but he did regain consciousness and was taken to hospital in an ambulance.

A second police cruiser that arrived at the scene was also attacked, had its windows smashed, and the protestor was seen fleeing.

The march/rally began near the Hall of Justice at around 4p.m.

local time, before protesters marched through the streets toward the area of Temple.

People carried signs reading ‘Black Lives Matter’.

The group then made its way onto the 101 Freeway where they blocked cars.

By around 6.25pm local time, the crowd continued moving through downtown LA streets.

As night fell, some protesters were seen burning an upside-down US flag before they carried the burnt remains of the flag towards a row of police officers.

AMERICA IS LITERALLY COMING APART AT THE SEAMS For a very long time, many have been loudly warning the American people that this was coming.

The mainstream media and many of our national leaders have been fanning the flames of hatred, anger, frustration and division on a daily basis for many years, and it was just a matter of time before we witnessed an eruption of violence of this magnitude.

Over the last week, we have seen protests in at least 145 different U.S.

cities, and reports of rioting, looting and violence are coming in so fast that it is literally impossible to keep up with them all.

So far, at least 40 U.S. cities have imposed curfews, the National Guard has been activated in at least 15 states, and at least 4,100 people have been arrested.

It is absolutely crazy that the rioters are being allowed to injure one Secret Service officer after another.

It just shows how much things have changed.

When I worked in the D.C. area many years ago, there was a tremendous amount of respect for the White House, and everyone understood that anybody that tried to mess with the White House would be dealt with severely.

In those days, anyone attacking Secret Service agent would have deeply, regretted doing so.

But now we are apparently allowing our Secret Service agents to be “kicked, punched, and exposed to bodily fluids.” Last week, more than 60 Secret Service Uniformed Division Officers and special agents suffered multiple injuries from bricks, rocks, bottles, fireworks and other items hurled at them.

“Secret Service personnel were also directly physically assaulted as they were kicked, punched, and exposed to bodily fluids.” A total of 11 injured personnel were transported to a hospital and treated for non-life threatening injuries.

What in the world is happening to this country?

In addition to these heinous acts, the “peaceful protesters” in D.C.

decided that it would be a really good idea to deface the Lincoln Memorial and the National World War II Memorial.

These landmarks in the nation’s capital were vandalized.

At this point, the protests have been taken over by radical leftists that are seeking to use this crisis as an opportunity to promote violence.

I have been endlessly warning that these things were coming, and now they have arrived.

Others have been loudly sounding the alarm as well.

For example, former police officer Marty Breeden shared the following back in April … “I saw many of our large metropolitan areas in complete and total chaos.

It was absolute insanity!

Rogue gangs banding together and creating ABSOLUTE havoc!!

Looting, rioting, murdering….

People running for their lives.

I saw great fires on both large and small buildings.

The violence was staggering to my mind.

Unfortunately, this is just the beginning.” Our country is literally coming apart at the seams, and a lot of us have been warning that this would happen for many, many years.

These riots come at a time when our nation is already dealing with a huge global pandemic and a historic economic collapse.

America was battered by a Great Depression in the 1930s, and laid low by a Great Recession just a decade ago.

But America has never experienced all of this kind of tumult in the same moment.

It is more than the system can bear, and people grieve for the country.

As I have warned my readers more times than I could possibly count, we have entered the time of “the perfect storm,” and global events are going to continue to accelerate.

Just when you think that one crisis has passed, something else is going to happen.

We are going to witness one major event after another, and everything that can be shaken will be shaken. (Luke 21:26)

GOVERNORS OF 23 STATES, ACTIVATE NATIONAL GUARD TO HELP WITH RIOTING
 
 The governors of 23 American states and the District of Columbia have activated 17,000 National Guard soldiers to help manage ongoing rioting in cities across the country, the Washington Examiner reported.

The US has been devastated by extreme - including deadly - violence, looting, and destruction of property since George Floyd was killed at the hands of Minneapolis police on May 25.

ABBAS THREATENS TO DISMANTLE THE PALESTINIAN AUTHORITY, “IF ISRAELI ANNEXES EVEN AN INCH OF PALESTINIAN LAND .” APRIL 30, 2020.

Mahmoud Abbas has urgently summoned PLO and Fatah leaders to Ramallah to rally around his decision to dissolve the Palestinian Authority, if the Netanyahu-Gantz government annexes even one inch of the West Bank.

By breaking up the PA, Abbas intends to saddle Israel with the administration and care for all civic needs of two million Palestinian citizens of the territory – health, water, economy, jobs etc.

THE ARAB LEAGUE: ISRAELI ANNEXATION OF THE WEST BANK WOULD BE A “NEW WAR CRIME.” The Arab League said that Israel’s controversial proposal to annex part of the West Bank is a ‘new war crime’ against the Palestinians.

ABBAS’ “GIFT TO IRAN” : HAMAS by Khaled Abu Toameh May 23, 2020 By halting the security crackdown on Hamas, Abbas would be paving the way for terrorists to kill him and his associates in the West Bank, as they had already begun to do in 2007 in the Gaza Strip, and possibly again in a coup in 2014.

If and when Abbas does suspend security coordination with Israel, he will be sending a message to Iran and its Palestinian proxies, that the time has come to turn the West Bank into a centre for Jihad against Israel and the “infidels.” At the same time, Abbas will be signing his own death warrant: Hamas has apparently not relinquished its desire to “hang Abbas in front of the Palestinian people.” It appears to be decision time: Will Abbas ally himself with those who are protecting him, or with those who execute him as a traitor?

If Mahmoud Abbas halted his security agreement with Israel, as he has repeatedly threatened to do, he would be signing his own death warrant.

The Iranian-backed Hamas movement has welcomed Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas's latest threat to renounce all agreements and understandings with Israel and the US, including security cooperation.

“We hope that this time Abbas's decision is a serious one,” said Saleh Arouri, deputy head of the Hamas “political bureau.” Arouri added that the return of the “armed resistance” to the West Bank was now possible “and even closer than some may think.” The Hamas official repeated his movement's rejection of any peace agreement with Israel, including the Oslo Accords, signed between the PLO and Israel in 1993.

“Since day one, we have rejected the Oslo Accords,” Arouri explained.

“We have also strongly opposed all security agreements with the occupation, and therefore we welcome Abu Mazen's decision to halt the security coordination .” PALESTINIAN AUTHORITY ENDS SECURITY OPERATION WITH ISRAEL MAY 22, 2020.

Angered by Israel’s plan to apply sovereignty over land in Judea and Samaria as well as the Jordan Valley, the Palestinian Authority (PA)

has ended security cooperation with Israel, Israeli sources confirmed.

PA President Mahmoud Abbas made the announcement earlier this week, proclaiming that the Palestinian government in Ramallah is ending all agreements with Israel and the United States.

It isn’t the first time he’s made such an announcement, however.

In fact, Abu Mazen, as he is known among the Palestinians, vowed to sever cooperation with Israel in January after the release of President Donald Trump’s peace plan.

His promise was fruitless—prompting many to write off this week’s announcement as another “cry for help.” Nonetheless, Israeli and Palestinian sources have confirmed that this time Abu Mazen is following through.

PA Prime Minister Mohammad Shtayyeh met with Palestinian security chiefs to discuss the logistics of moving forward without co-operation and contact with Israeli security forces.

IRAN’S AYATOLLAH KHAMEINI CALLS FOR A “FINAL SOLUTION” BY ELIMINATING ISRAEL.

In calling for the “elimination of Israel,” Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khameini used the words “final solution.” The phrase Hitler applied to describe his plans for a Jewish genocide, was adopted in a poster published on Khamenei’s website on Quds Day, Iran’s annual anti-Israel event.

ALL EVENTS ARE POINTING TO WORLD WAR.

But let’s leave the coming war for a moment.

I want to share with you an important prophecy -- a teaching concerning the present time – by the Messiah Y’shua Himself.

Let’s start at the present time.

LAST MONTH, MAY 2020, ISRAEL CELEBRATED ITS 72nd ANNIVERSARY AS A RESTORED NATION.

(IN MAY 1948, ISRAEL, THE FIG TREE, CAME TO LIFE AS A RESTORED NATION.

THE FIG TREE IS AN IMPORTANT SIGN OF THE END TIME).

Now let’s look at the Master’s prophecy concerning the fig tree and the generation that will not pass away until His prophecy is fulfilled.

After giving His end-time teaching, Y’shua said: “Now learn the parable from the fig tree: when its branch has already become tender, and puts forth leaves, you know that the summer is near; so you also, when you see all these things, recognise that He (Y’shua) is near - right at the doors.

“Truly, I tell you, this generation will not pass away until all these things take place.

(“all things” including the Day of the LORD – the seven year Tribulation.)

Heaven and the earth will pass away, but My words will by no means pass away.

But of that exact day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, nor the Son, but only My Father.

“For the days of the coming of the Son of Man will be just like the days of Noah.

(violence and corruption – Genesis 6:11-13).

For as in the days before the flood, people were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, and they did not understand until the flood came and took them all away.

It will be like that at the coming of the Son of Man.” (Matt 24:32-39)

We, the present generation, saw the fig tree come to life on May 14, 1948.

A generation is 70, and per chance, 80 years. (Psalm 90:10).

Now, this generation is in its final decade, swiftly reaching towards 80 years).

Have you noticed how the days, the weeks, the months and the years are flying by?

When you pass 70 years of age, you start asking, “Where did the last twenty years go to?” Signs of the Scheduled Tribulation are increasing, And we must warn the world that the Day is indeed near.” “For you know very well that the Day of the LORD (the Day of YHWH) will come just like a thief in the night.

While they are saying, "Peace and safety!" then destruction will come upon them suddenly like birth pangs upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.” (1 Thess.5:2-3)

The seven last years of the generation, (73 to 80), will be the seven years called the “Day of the Lord.” And that includes the Great Tribulation, the judgment of the world that Y’shua warned about.

By the year 2028 the prophecy of Y’shua should be fulfilled.

Does that mean the we all, in this generation, are soon going into the great Day of the Tribulation?

The world is, but the Lord’s people have been promised exemption - we will be rescued, saved, and taken away before the seven horrendous years begin.

Y’shua said: “Let not your heart be troubled; believe in God, believe also in Me.

In My Father's House are many dwelling places; if it were not so, I would have told you, for I am going there to prepare a place for you.

And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself, so that you also may be where I am.” (John 14:1-3), And as Paul the writer of much of the New Testament explains: “For the Master Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trumpet call of God.

Then the dead in Christ - those who died with faith in the Messiah - shall rise first.

Then we, the living believers who remain, will simultaneously be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Master in the air.

And so we will be with the Master forever.

Therefore comfort and encourage one another with these words.” (1 Thess.4:16-18).

And as the great apostle Peter explains: “The LORD is not slow concerning His promise, as some understand slowness, but is patient toward you, not wanting anyone to perish, but for everyone to come to repentance.

But the Day of YHWH will come (unexpected)

like a thief in the night, in which the heavens will disappear with a roar; and the elements will be destroyed with intense heat, and the earth and its works will be burned up.

“Since all these things are to be destroyed in this way, what kind of people ought you to be?

You ought to live holy and godly lives as you look forward to and earnestly desire the Day of God (the Day of YHWH).

That day will bring about the destruction of the heavens by fire, and the elements will melt in the intense heat.

But, in keeping with His promise, we are looking forward to new heavens and a new earth, in which righteousness dwells.” (2 Peter3:9-13)

“Therefore be on the alert, for you do not know which day your Master is coming.

But be sure of this, that if the head of the house had known at what time the thief was coming, he would have kept watch and would not have allowed his house to be broken into.

For this reason you also be ready; for the Son of Man is coming at an hour when you do not expect Him.” (Matthew 24:42-44)

Now, we cannot predict a date for the Rapture, but the Lord told us to watch and to discern the signs of the times.

He said: “When it is evening, you say, ‘it will be fair weather, for the sky is red.’ And in the morning, ‘it will be bad weather today, for the sky is red and threatening.’ Hypocrites!

You know how to discern the appearance in the sky, but are you unable to discern the signs of the times?” (Matt.16:2-3)

Now, the Master did indicate that His coming to “catch up” His people to the Father’s House, will take place before the generation has fully run its course.

Now it is important to recognise that His coming to rapture (to catch up)

His people, will be before the seven years of judgment of the world.

This is clear from this prophecy that Y’shua spoke to His people: “Because you have kept the word of My endurance, I also will keep you from the hour of trial which is about to come upon the whole world, to try those who live on the earth.

I am coming quickly - soon!

Hold on to what you have, so that no-one may deprive you of your crown.” (Revelation 3:10-11).

That’s the assurance Y’shua gives to His true people.

So we can say very confidently that the Day of the Rapture is getting closer every day.

It could take place any day now!

Perhaps even today!

So let’s “redeem the time for the days are evil.” (Ephesians 5:16)

“I was looking for the Master’s coming yesterday; but He did not come. So I am expecting Him today. But in case He doesn’t come today, I will be waiting for Him tomorrow! Amen?”

That is the believer’s “hope” – not a “hope so,” but assurance.

Blessed assurance Jesus is mine!

Blessed assurance Jesus is coming soon!

Now let’s see some more of the signs of the times given by the Master.

If you are not sure that you are included in “the Lord’s true people,” let me repeat the ABC about how you can be saved, and sure.

It is not a matter of being or doing good.

We are all sinners, and we need to be saved.

Here are three simple steps you should take.

ACKNOWLEDGE that you are a sinner and need the mercy of GOD. And then ASK Him to forgive all your sins. He can do that because Jesus paid your death penalty when He died for you on the cross.

BELIEVE in your heart and mind that Jesus/ Y’shua, the Son of God, came to the earth, and was crucified on the cross in your place; and that He rose again, and is waiting to be your living and eternal Saviour.

CALL upon Him while He is near. Pray (talk)

to Him expressing your faith in the Lord Jesus, the loving Saviour who has already paid your death penalty, and who is now listening and waiting for your response.

“CALL UPON HIM WHILE HE IS NEAR.” (Isaiah 55:6)

THE GLOBAL ECONOMIC COLLAPSE !

A PROPHECY CONCERNING THE LAST DAYS OF THIS PRESENT GENERATION James 5: 1-7: “Come now, you rich, weep and wail because of the miseries that are coming upon you.

Your wealth has become rotten, and your garments are moth-eaten.

Your gold and silver have corroded, and their corrosion will testify against you and will consume your flesh like fire.

You have hoarded wealth in the Last Days!

“See, the wages of the labourers who reaped your fields, and which have been withheld by you, cries out against you; and the cries of the harvesters have reached the ears of YHWH of Hosts.

You have lived on the earth in luxury and self-indulgence; you have fattened yourselves in the day of slaughter.

You have condemned and murdered the righteous who were not resisting you.” This first part of this prophecy refers to the global economic collapse.

The next part is for believers.

It implies that believers will see the beginning of the economic collapse before the Rapture, and they are to remain waiting expectantly for that great deliverance.

To believers James says: “Be patient, therefore, brethren, until the coming of the Master.

See how the Farmer waits expectantly for the precious “fruit of the earth,” waiting patiently until the land receives the early and late rains.” The Saviour is waiting for the final ingathering of the New Testament believers.

We already see the economies collapsing, and also the “Late Rains” - the gathering in of souls of this generation, to the Saviour, all around the world.

So believer, we must wait patiently, expecting the call, “Come up My People,” any day now.

* U.S.

DEFICIT EXPECTED TO REACH $4 TRILLION (4,000,000,000,000)

The US Congressional Budget Office (CBO) predicted last month that, as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, America’s deficit will reach nearly $4 trillion this year, Politico reports.

The CBO also said that unemployment will rise to 16% in 2020, before going to down to 9.5% by the end of 2021.

While these figures are for the U.S., there are similar conditions all over the world.

* BIG BANKRUPTCIES SWEEP THE U.S.

In the first weeks of the pandemic, it was just a trickle; companies like Alaskan airline Ravn Air were pushed into bankruptcy as travel came to a halt, and markets collapsed.

But the financial distress wrought by the shutdowns has deepened, producing what is now a wave of insolvencies washing through America’s corporations.

ARE YOU READY FOR THE GREAT DEPRESSION OF THE 2020s?

“Our food supply chain is breaking”: Tyson Foods, in the US, warns, ‘millions of pounds of meat will disappear’ from shelves.

Millions of pounds of meat will not make it to consumer shelves as processing plants are forced to shut down because of the coronavirus.

More than 26 million Americans have already lost their jobs, economic activity has come to a stand-still, people are lining up for miles at food banks in much of the world, and businesses are being permanently closed at a staggering pace.

This month there are now nearly 3.2 million new jobless claims across U.S.

This drives the tally during the virus outbreak to 33.5 million.

* NOBODY EVER IMAGINED THAT JOB LOSSES WOULD GET THIS BAD, SO QUICKLY MAY 27.

By Michael Snyder.

If you tried to warn people in late 2019 that about 40 million Americans would lose their jobs by the middle of 2020, nobody would have believed you.

Personally, I operate a website called “The Economic Collapse Blog”, and I wouldn’t have believed you either.

Even though I have been loudly warning that this sort of an economic crisis was coming, I never imagined that we would lose so many jobs in such a short period of time.

As I discussed the other day, more than a quarter of all jobs in the United States have already been wiped out, and the job losses just keep on coming.

In fact, Boeing is currently in the process of laying off thousands of highly skilled workers.

Nearly 13,000 Boeing workers, mostly in the US, are set to lose their jobs in the coming weeks, as cuts at the American aerospace giant take effect.

More layoffs are expected, some of which may affect the UK.

The reductions had been expected since Boeing revealed plans last month to slash its global work-force by 10% – or roughly 16,000 jobs.

A lot of those are very high paying jobs with good benefits, and they will not be easy to replace.

Major retailers all over America keep going down one after another.

We have learned that Tuesday Morning (a newspaper)

has decided to file for bankruptcy.

The paper filed for bankruptcy protection with plans to close more than a third of its stores.

“Tuesday Morning” had been struggling when the coronavirus pandemic began and went into a free fall and was forced to temporarily close its locations due to the crisis.

Just like the Boeing jobs, these are jobs that are never going to come back.

HALF OF THE WORLD'S WORKERS LOSE JOBS OVER CORONAVIRUS JUN 4, 2020.

A principal United Nations agency warns that nearly half of the world's working population may lose jobs and incomes as the coronavirus pandemic continues to devastate lives and economies.

The International Labour Organization (ILO)

said some 1.6 billion people are in "immediate danger of having their livelihoods destroyed" by the economic impact of the virus outbreak and related measures.

An “economic recovery” was supposed to have started by now, but that isn’t happening.

The coronavirus pandemic is a long, long way from over.

And now the horrifying riots that have erupted all over the nation, are going to make things even worse.

MILLIONS OF PIGS, CHICKENS AND CATTLE ARE BEING SLAUGHTERED WHILE THE MEDIA WARNS THAT “SHORTAGES” ARE COMING.

Cows and pigs near Cheriton Fitzpaine

By Rob Purvis, CC BY-SA 2.0,

Farmers all over America have been dumping millions of gallons of milk, disposing of millions of pounds of fresh vegetables, and putting farm animals to death at a rate that we have never seen before.

In fact, Reuters is reporting that “millions of pigs, chickens and cattle will be euthanized” because they can’t be sold.

Before COVID-19 came along, African Swine Fever was the most serious pestilence affecting the planet.

There is no vaccine, there is no cure, and it is killing pigs all over the globe at a staggering rate.

Approximately half the pigs in China and approximately one fourth of all the pigs in the entire world have already been wiped out by this disease.

Unlike other parts of the globe, the US actually has plenty of food right now, but we can’t get much of that food to the people because so many food processing facilities have been shut down due to COVID-19. APRIL.27 2020.

For those of you that were expecting just a “deep recession,” I am afraid that you are going to be very disappointed.

It took years for the U.S. economy to fully unravel in the Great Depression of the 1930s, but now we have witnessed a similar level of economic devastation in just a matter of weeks.

More than 26 million Americans have already lost their jobs, economic activity has come to a stand-still, people are lining up for miles at food banks all over the nation, and businesses are being permanently closed at a staggering pace.

These severe conditions in the U.S., are being repeated in INDIA, and many other countries.

POPE FRANCIS CALLS FOR “GLOBAL WEALTH RE-DISTRIBUTION” FEB 9.

FROM BREITBART NEWS: Pope Francis told participants in a Vatican seminar: “Every year hundreds of billions of dollars, which should be paid in taxes to fund, health care and education, accumulate in tax haven accounts thus impeding the possibility of the dignified and sustained development of all social agents.” “Today’s structures include repeated tax cuts for the richest people, often justified in the name of investment and development,” Francis told the meeting organized by the Pontifical Academy for Social Sciences.

During his discourse, the Pope repeated his conviction that poverty is on the rise worldwide and “the poor increase around us.” “With the passage of time and the advances of civilization, the number of poor people increases rather than diminishing.” Francis similarly asserted last June, and also that “the poor are always poorer, and today they are poorer than ever.” As a Brookings Institution report noted in late 2018, however, the world is currently experiencing “the lowest prevalence of extreme poverty ever recorded in human history — less than 8%,” and that number falls with each passing year.

According to the widely used “international poverty line,” people are considered to be in “extreme poverty” if they live on less than $1.90 per day or its equivalent.

In the world today, less than 10% of the global population lives in extreme poverty, whereas just 30 years ago (1990), some 37% of the world lived in extreme poverty.

Two centuries ago, nearly everyone in the world lived in extreme poverty.

While in the year 1800 almost 90% of the world’s population subsisted on less than $1 a day, that percentage had been constantly falling, dropping below 20% in the year 2000 and below 10% in the present day.

And yet such pontifical hypocrisy grows each day.

Here's a simple question no one ever seems to ask; Since the Vatican vaults contain a disproportionate amount of the world's great art and literary treasures valued in the billions of dollars, how is it that no one ever asks Pope Francis why they don't sell some of them and give it to the poor?

If they did that they would have endless financial resources with which to help the poor out of poverty.

But they don't do it.

Yeah, someone should ask the pope that some time?

A CHRISLAM DAY OF PRAYER, FASTING AND CHARITABLE WORKS A Chrislam day for peoples of all religions to pray to their gods to fast and to do charitable works - to end COVID-19 coronavirus.

Pope Francis announced that May 14 would be a Chrislam Day of Prayer, as it combines the Christianity of Roman Catholicism, with Islam, and apostate Judaism; and it is called by various names.

The Vatican calls it the Abrahamic Faiths Initiative, which is governed by the Higher Committee Of Human Fraternity.

On May 14th, Pope Francis was scheduled to lead his One World Religion of Chrislam in global prayer to the gods of this world, and asking them to end COVID-19 on the earth.

Do you think the timing of Chrislam Day on May 14th was an accident or coincidence?

It’s the day in 1948, that God regathered the nation of Israel after nearly 2,000 years?

The UN's Secretary-General, António Guterres, also tweeted his support for this “moment for reflection, hope and faith.” Pope Francis declared: “I accepted the proposal of the High Committee for the Human Fraternity, so believers of all religions will spiritually unite on May 14 in a day of prayer and fasting and works of charity, to implore God to help humanity overcome the coronavirus pandemic.” This day is part of the Committee's task to share the message of the Document on Human Fraternity for World Peace and Living Together.

The pope signed it in Abu Dhabi in Feb.

2019 with the Grand Imam of Al-Azhar.

Now, more than a year after the signing of the Document, the members invite all religious leaders and people to ask “God” to bless and safeguard the world, so it will be better than before the pandemic.

Which ‘god’ is anyone’s guess?

Soon, and sadly, Pope Francis or the next Pontifex Maximus will be in control of Israel as he directs worship of the Antichrist, and as the Temple is rebuilt.

This is what Chrislam was created to accomplish.– by 20??

We have not received any reports about how the “Chrislam Day” worked out !?

A LOT OF ACTIVITY IN THE MIDDLE EAST!

ISRAEL AND THE US ARE SENDING A CLEAR WARNING TO IRAN The Shahid Rajaee port facility on the Iranian coast was recently targeted by a cyber attack.

MAY 25, 2020 | The Washington Post reported that an Israeli and American cyberattack against Iran seems reliable and accurate.

The US sources who anonymously provided the newspaper with information about the attack attributed to Israel and the United States, in Iran, did not even ask journalists to hide potentially identifying information.

According to the Washington Post, Israel and the US were prompted to carry out the attack following an Iranian cyber attack on Israeli water and sewage facilities at the height the coronavirus crisis.

It was a targeted attack on vital civilian infrastructure in Israel, carried out by professional means that was professionally concealed.

In the past month, Israel has attacked targets in Syria on six occasions: March 31 - Shayrat Airbase April 15 - The Syrian-Lebanese border April 20 - Near Palmyra and Homs April 27 - Mezzeh Military Airport near Damascus April 30 - Quneitra May 4 - Deir ez-Zor and Aleppo The most recent strike was the most significant and comprehensive of all six.

Not only were more than 15 Iranian members of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC)

and other Iraqi Shi’ite militias killed, but highly valuable assets were destroyed.

This week, an Israeli security official said that Iran has begun pulling troops out of Syria for the first time since its involvement in the civil war.

"Iran is fighting its own war and has become a liability for Syria.

Israel will increase its pressure to push Iran out," the source said.

RUSSIA INTERCEPTS U.S.

TALIBAN MAINTAINS CLOSE TIES WITH AL-QAEDA, DESPITE PEACE DEAL The Taliban in Afghanistan still maintains close relations with the terror network al-Qaida, despite having signed a peace deal with the US, agreeing to tackle militant groups, a United Nations report said.

LEBANON is sinking into its worst financial crisis ever, accompanied by civil unrest and a sharp decline in Hezbollah’s popularity.

The Iranian defeats on Syrian soil convince many experts that Iran is pulling out of Syria to concentrate more on the Iraqi side of the border.

This isn’t going well for the Iranians, as a resurge of ISIS in the region is leading to the loss of lives and weapons daily.

Police fired volleys of tear gas and rubber bullets in Lebanon's capital to disperse thousands of protesters amid some of the worst rioting since demonstrations against the country's ruling elite erupted three months ago.

More than 150 people were injured.

IRAQ.

In what is a very smart move, America is clearing most of its presence from Iraq (evacuating 6 to 8 bases), allowing the Iraqis to deal with ISIS themselves.

Northern Syria is the new destination for US forces that are moving out of Iraq.

New bases with long runways (allowing all types of aircraft to land and take off easily)

are being constructed at present.

Iraqi security forces wounded dozens of protesters as renewed anti-government demonstrations gripped the capital and Iraq’s south.

TURKEY

Just like Lebanon, is suffering a great decline in its currency value and its credit rate is deteriorating as well.

However, just like the Iranians, the Turks do not let this harsh reality deter them from their agenda for expansion.

Hundreds of mercenaries are being brought into Libya from northern Syria, and the battle against the Libyan National Army led by General Khalifa Haftar is underway.

Fighting continues between YEMEN & SAUDI ARABIA.

After a massive attack by the Saudi Air Force on Houthi targets, two ballistic missiles were fired from the Houthis and fell on the Saudi border.

ISRAEL has officially flattened the curve and managed to get control over the spread of the coronavirus.

More recoveries are being reported than confirmed cases.

The number of people that are in critical condition is less than 100, with only 70 in need of ventilators.

Most businesses expected to reopen by the end of May as many restrictions are eased by the health authorities.

ISRAEL GOES FROM CONTAINING IRAN IN SYRIA TO EXPULSION FROM SYRIA

Recently, Israeli warplanes were alleged to have struck targets near Damascus after Defence Minister Naftali Bennett said: “Keep your ears open.

We have moved from containing Iran’s military presence in Syria to EXPULSION.” SYRIA ACCUSES ISRAEL OF AN AIR-STRIKE NEAR DAMASCUS

Syria has accused Israel of conducting a pre-dawn airstrike on a military airfield near Damascus.

The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR)

said at least four Iranian militants and three civilians were killed, the Jerusalem Post reported.

The mention of missiles and Damascus, usually brings to our minds, the prophecy in Isaiah 17:1: “The oracle concerning Damascus.

Look, Damascus is about to be removed from being a city, and it will become a heap of ruins.” Some prophecy teachers believe the destruction of Damascus will lead to the world war when Russia and its allies come against Israel.

HEZBOLLAH WEAPON STOREHOUSE DESTROYED BY ISRAEL MAY 1, 2020.

* THE GREAT LOCUST PLAGUE OF 2020 APRIL 23.

The year 2020 has been such a disaster, that it will likely take some time to figure out what made it such a train wreck.

Unless we end with a global nuclear war, the coronavirus and the financial meltdown will dominate how people will remember this year.

There is a third calamity taking place in Africa that is currently a second-page news story, but it has our attention because of its Biblical connection.

A massive swarm of locusts has invaded at least eight countries (Kenya, Uganda, South Sudan, Ethiopia, Somalia, Eritrea, Djibouti and Sudan).

About a month ago, this cloud of insects was declared the worst plague of locusts in 70 years.

It would appear we are headed toward reaching the record set during the time of Moses.

In the Bible we read that the plague on Egyptians was promised by God to be a "...

dense swarm of locusts as had never been before, nor ever will be again." (Exodus 10:14)

This infestation of desert locusts first arrived in East Africa in June 2019, feeding on hundreds of thousands of hectares of crops and pasture land.

They came from the uninhabited portion of the Arabian Peninsula which is normally bone dry.

In 2018, two perfectly timed cyclones dumped heavy rains in this region, creating the ideal wet, sandy conditions the desert locusts require to breed.

Three generations of breeding occurred in nine months, causing locust numbers to increase by 8,000 times and forming the original source of the East Africa upsurge.

Scientists say these devastating insects never left East Africa: in fact, favourable wet conditions due to above average rainfall this season mean they are likely to achieve two more generations of new breeding by June this year, increasing their population size by 400 times.

Eventually, the desert is going to dry up, and the swarm of locusts will move inland and northward.

A typical swarm can consist of up to 150 million locusts per square kilometre.

These insects move with the wind, and can migrate as far as 150 km in one day.

Even a tiny, one-square kilometer locust swarm is capable of consuming the same amount of food in one day as approximately 35,000 people.

*INDIA FACES ITS WORST LOCUST SWARM IN NEARLY 30 YEARS MAY 27, 2020.

Swarms of Locusts: So far, about 42,000 hectares (104,000 acres)

of cotton, summer pulses and vegetable crops have been affected by locusts across six states, mainly in Rajasthan.

Locust swarm invasion warnings were issued for Punjab, Haryana, as governments brace to prevent damages.

The Locust Warning Organisation (LWO)

issued an alert, saying that one swarm from Rajasthan has moved.

The locust swarm can enter Punjab, Haryana or Gujarat after moving from Rajasthan.

A locust swarm invasion has been expected in bordering districts of Punjab and Haryana after the swarms spread to other north Indian states over the past few weeks.

The Locust Warning Organisation (LWO)

issued an alert and said that one swarm from Rajasthan has moved.

Indian authorities are helping farmers mount a pesticide spraying campaign to fight the swarms of desert locusts which have already devastated crops across Pakistan and East Africa.

As many as 700 tractors, 75 fire-engines and almost 50 other vehicles are engaged in spraying pesticides to kill the locusts, the director general of the state-run Indian Council of Agricultural Research in New Delhi said.

Drones will also be employed.

“At this point it’s manageable, but if it continues it will be a problem” for monsoon-sown crops.

The impact will be lessened by the current spraying campaign and the fact that the harvest of the winter crop is mostly over.

About 42,000 hectares (104,000 acres) of cotton, summer pulses and vegetable crops have been affected by locusts across six states, but mainly in Rajasthan.

Farmers grow rice, pulses, cotton, sugar cane and soybeans on over 106 million hectares in the monsoon season, according to the farm ministry.

PINK SWARMS

Swarms of desert locusts occur irregularly in North Africa, the Middle East and South Asia, usually when drought is followed by heavy rain.

Normally, with the arrival of the monsoon, locust swarms enter the desert areas of India via Pakistan for breeding in June-July, but this year pink adult swarms were reported as early as April 30 in Rajasthan and Punjab.

This is in part because of the uncontrolled swarms in Pakistan that breed continuously, the ministry said.

Swarms of pink immature adults fly high and travel long distances with strong winds coming from Pakistan.

Most of them settle on trees during the night and mostly fly during the day.

The hoppers and pink swarms have been controlled in 14,299 hectares in areas of Rajasthan and Punjab.

In January, the biggest locust swarm to hit Gujarat in over a quarter of a century resulted in more than 25,000 hectares of wheat, rapeseed, cumin and potatoes being attacked, with at least a third of the crops damaged in 75% of the affected areas, according to the state's directorate of agriculture.

A swarm of locusts infested the city of Jaipur in Rajasthan, after traveling into India from Pakistan.

And the locusts could move towards the capital city of New Delhi if wind speed and direction were favourable.

A swarm of 40 million locusts can eat as much food as 35,000 humans.

The current swarm has destroyed seasonal crops in the states of Rajasthan and Madhya Pradesh.

This will lead to lower production than usual and a rise in prices of foodstuff.

An agrarian crisis and subsequent food inflation will severely impede India’s response to the coronavirus pandemic.

Thousands of migrant workers have died from hunger after India suddenly imposed a nationwide lockdown to contain the spread of the coronavirus, leaving workers penniless.

An arming crisis because of a locust swarm will further hamper relief efforts of the government.

Take note: The LORD says: “If I shut up the heavens and there is no rain, or if I command the locust to devour the land, or if I send pestilence among My people, and My people who are called by My Name humble themselves and pray, and seek My Face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, will forgive their sin and heal their land'." (2 Chronicles 7:13-14)

GIANT HORNETS SWARM ACROSS THE USA

Giant Asian hornets that have begun invading the U.S. which is already stricken by the Coronavirus may cost the economy millions of dollars a year.

The giant locusts can grow as long as 2.5 inches, and are a native to south-east Asia.

The “Murder Hornet” as it is called, may have a devastating impact on the already dwindling honey-bee population in the U.S. It can kill bees with a single sting.

Its venom is toxic, and multiple stings can get into the human bloodstream, and that can be fatal.

LARGE EARTHQUAKES ARE ROCKING “THE RING OF FIRE”

MAY 11, 2020. By Michael Snyder. “Economic Collapse”

Within the past several days, large earthquakes have been striking all along the outer rim of the Pacific

Ocean, and many are wondering if all of this activity could potentially be building up to something really big.

The California and Alaska coastlines have been absolutely peppered by quakes in recent days, but nobody is really talking about these quakes because everyone is so focused on COVID-19 right now.

Yes, this pandemic deserves our attention, but I would submit that all of the unusual shaking that has been happening certainly deserves our attention as well.

You may not have heard about it yet, but a magnitude 4.5 earthquake rocked San Diego on Sunday afternoon. It had a depth of 10 kilometres or 6.2 miles.

That is a rather large quake for that particular area, and it is just one of hundreds that

have been hitting the region.

In fact, CalTech says there have been 1,227 earthquakes in California and Nevada over the last 7 days.

Meanwhile, the section of the Ring of Fire that runs along the west coast of South America has also been getting hit pretty hard.

A magnitude 5.4 quake struck northern Chile, and that really shook a lot of people.

Subsequently, the portion of the Ring of Fire, around the northern Pacific, and that runs along the coast of Japan was hit by a magnitude 5.8 earthquake.

The quake hit near the east coast of Honshu.

The earthquake was reported to have a depth of 80km.

And that unusual event in Japan was very quickly followed by a magnitude 5.6 earthquake in Indonesia.

There has been so much shaking in Indonesia recently, but most people never hear about it.

Just a few days ago, Indonesia was hit by a magnitude 6.9 earthquake that was so powerful that it was actually felt in Australia.

(The tremor hit the Banda Sea, more than 600km north of Darwin, at a depth of 142km.)

So as you can see, there have been significant seismic events all over the Ring of Fire within the past several days.

But it isn’t just the Ring of Fire that has been shaking.

Big earthquakes have been popping up in diverse places all over the globe, and the magnitude 5.1 quake that just hit Iran really surprised a lot of people.

A 5.1 magnitude earthquake hit IRAN with its epicentre 34 miles east of the capital city Tehran.

AFP reported that panicked residents rushed into the streets, abandoning buildings in fear they would collapse.

Two people were killed and 55 injured in the earthquake.

The earthquake was followed by eight more mild aftershocks.

And weird earthquakes have been happening in the U.S. as well.

In addition to the west coast, I am always watching the New Madrid seismic zone very carefully.

So when two unusual earthquakes hit southern Tennessee, it definitely got my attention.

Two earthquakes were reported back to back in southern Tennessee.

Without a doubt, there is a whole lot of shaking going on right now.

NETANYAHU: “THE CASE AGAINST ME WAS TRUMPED UP IN A TOXIC INVESTIGATION” MAY 25, 2020 .

PM Binyamin Netanyahu delivered his j’accuse outside the Jerusalem District Court minutes before the opening of his trial on Sunday, May 24, on three counts of corruption.

Repeating the demand for live broadcast of the proceedings (which the court had already denied)

“to prevent editorial distortions and censorship,” he also called for the publication verbatim of the investigation conducted against him.

This would expose what he called the illegal practices of “intimidation and threats against witnesses’ families,” which were used to extract evidence against him.

Failing to bring the “right down in election after election,” Netanyahu, said, they resorted to foul methods “to remove the national camp from power” for years to come.

“I go into court with a straight back and my head held high,” said Netanyahu, “because I know the people are with me and I’m not alone.” Outside the court, several hundred flag-waving, shouting demonstrators showed their support for the prime minister, who arrived in court after the first cabinet meeting of the new unity government over which he presided.

A large group of Likud ministers and law-makers in face masks took seats in the public gallery.

The trial of PM Binyamin Netanyahu and his three co-defendants will continue on July 19, the three-judge panel of the Jerusalem District Court announced at the opening session on May 24.

The charges of bribery, fraud and breach of faith were read out to the defendant, the prime minister, and he confirmed, “I have read and I understand the charges.” Netanyahu’s co-defendants are Yediot Aharonot chief editor, Arnon Mozes, the controlling share- holder of Bezeq telecom, Shaul Elovitch and his wife, Iris.

All four lawyers asked for enough time before the next session to study the mountainous volume of investigative material on their cases.

The judges agreed to schedule the next session on July 19.

They added that the defendants were not required to attend, only their attorneys.

The Elovitch’s lawyer, Jack Chen asked the court to caution the witnesses against conducting a parallel trial through the media.

“We want the trial to go forward before this court.

If prosecution witnesses give press interviews, it will be a circus,” he said.

At the end of the session, Prosecutor Liat Ben Ari promised to caution the witnesses against granting press interviews.

INDIAN MAN OFFERS VEGETABLES FOR FREE TO POOR DURING LOCKDOWN MAY 27, 2020.

Some look at this act of kindness in Maharashtra (Bombay state) with curious eyes, while others appreciate the gesture of the vendor to offer vegetables for free at a time when many people are facing financial difficulties due to the coronavirus enforced lockdown.

There are also known groups of Indian Christians who are providing food packets to the needy.

SPIRITUAL CONDITIONS IN THE U.S.

“MORE AMERICANS BELIEVE IN SATAN THAN IN GOD” A new report of a respected U.S. researcher concludes that more Americans believe in Satan than belief in God.

George Barna, whose work is based at the Cultural Research Centre at Arizona Christian University, also writes: "Tens of millions of Americans consider themselves to be Christian but do not believe that God is really in control or cares what happens to them." Tragic!

BUT AT THE SAME TIME … SOME 132,000 TURN TO CHRIST IN A “QUARANTINE REVIVAL” More than 130,000 people from across the world, many in lockdown due to the coronavirus pandemic, have decided to follow Jesus Christ after an online evangelism event, organizers said.

“We are living through a Great Quarantine Revival, and I think God is just getting started," explained evangelist Nick Hall, whose Pulse movement organized the virtual program.

HALLELUYAH!
