Where is the United States in Prophecy?
Obama, J Street, and Middle East peace

The majority of Israelis think Obama is pro-Palestinian and wants to to distance himself from Israel. Unless he can dispel that public perception, the Israeli government is unlikely to make concessions.
- Bernd Debusmann is a Reuters columnist. The opinions expressed are his own -
Message to Israelis disgruntled with President Barack Obama’s Middle East policies: you’ve got used to U.S. presidents pouring affection on you. Forget that. Obama is not “a lovey-dovey kind of guy”.
That assessment came from an old Middle East hand, former U.S. ambassador to Israel Martin Indyk, in an exchange in the closing minutes of the inaugural national conference of J Street, a new pro-Israel lobby for the liberal majority of American Jews (78 percent voted for Obama) who do not feel represented by traditional pro-Israel advocacy groups, chief of them the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC).
The conference, in the words of J Street executive director Jeremy Ben-Ami, marked “the birth of a movement, a coming-out party for those who want to widen the tent and are not stuck in the mindset that because we are pro-Israel, we must be anti- somebody else”.
Now director of the foreign policy program at the Brookings Institution, a Washington think tank, Indyk was on a panel entitled “Why Two States? Why Now?” He responded to a question from the audience on the advisability of American presidents getting personally involved in Middle East peace-making. They shouldn’t get involved in procedural detail, he said, but for Obama it would be “really important” to go to Israel. Why? ... The Rest Of The Story

Egyptian sources: Israel prepares to strike Iran from Gulf and N. Iraq
DEBKAfile Exclusive Report: February 3, 2010, 10:12 PM (GMT+02:00)
Arab voices were fanning Middle East war fever Wednesday night, Feb. 3. DEBKAfile's military sources report that not only are Syrian leaders beating war drums - Syrian foreign minister Walid Muallem said in Damascus: "Israelis, do not test the power of Syria since you know the war will move into your cities" - but Egyptian military sources have put out information purporting to outline Israel's preparations to strike Iran.
They report that the Israeli Navy together with the US Fifth Fleet have for some weeks been charting Persian Gulf waters and Iranian shorelines in preparation for attacks by Israeli naval and special operations forces.
IDF intelligence and special forces officers, they also say, have been marking out routes for their air and ground forces to drive into Iran and hit its nuclear installations.
According to these Egyptian sources, Saudi Arabia has demanded clarifications from Washington about reported US-assisted Israeli preparations to strike Iran and asks why they were not brought to the notice of Riyadh and the Gulf Arab governments.
The Saudis added that several Gulf intelligence and naval units had tracked Israeli movements and gathered documentary evidence.
Some of this information was leaked in Cairo Wednesday night to Shorouk, a publication which Egyptian intelligence often uses as an outlet for information held to be credible.
Shorouk was first out with the story of the Israeli Air Force attack on Iranian arms convoys in Sudan in January 2009.

'Bolshevik plot,' Obama? Bingo!

Late last week, radio and television commentator Glenn Beck touched on something at which I hinted in my last column – that rather than putting on the brakes in light of Scott Brown's recent senatorial win and the summative occurrences leading up to same, the Obama administration would probably stomp on the gas. Beck's assessment was based on instructions contained in "Rules for Radicals," the Saul Alinsky tome that has been a holy text for President Obama's variety of progressives; this protocol calls for fierce augmentation of goal-oriented actions when threatened or thwarted, rather than falling back and regrouping.
And it would appear that Beck – or perhaps Beck and I – were correct. As reported, early this week, Obama released his new $3.8 trillion budget plan, nearly half of which is deficit spending and which includes approximately $1.4 trillion in tax increases on businesses and "the wealthy."
Our economy has lost 7 million jobs over the last two years. And our government is deeply in debt.
– President Obama, Feb. 1, 2010
This reality somehow renders all of the spending a perfectly rational and prudent course of action, I suppose.
Obviously I'm being facetious, but one would think that given the Brown win, Republican gubernatorial wins in Virginia and New Jersey, and the ongoing battle within his own party over health-care reform legislation, Obama might have considered revising his budget or delaying its release. But he didn't. He unveiled it with a flourish, and on schedule, warts and all.
Like in the stimulus bill of 2009, no doubt there will be billions in sheer, shameless waste, billions going to phantom ZIP codes, earmarks and pork, and untraceable billions that will find their way into the hands of Obama cronies (such as ACORN and SEIU), unions and uber-progressive states.
The doctor is in and the diagnosis is clear. Don't miss Michael Savage's "Liberalism is a Mental Disorder"
What's going to kill us is that there is, by design, a wealth of potential for millions to cash in on some of those trillions. There's something for everybody, like bonus payments to Social Security recipients and other retirees, extended jobless benefits and health insurance subsidies for the unemployed and extended middle-class tax credits. These will overcome the sensibilities of lawmakers and taxpayers alike. Most people aren't business owners, nor do they count themselves among "the wealthy," so the taxes Obama plans to impose will pass without protestation.
I won't even get into the futility of sparking the economy via spending; what's frightening is that the president can even offer this course of action with a straight face. Attempting to spur job creation by investing in an existing corrupt and wasteful bureaucracy that administers federal construction and other jobs projects will, as we have seen in practice over decades, only stultify job creation overall.
We will go through the gate. If the gate is closed, we will go over the fence. If the fence is too high, we will pole-vault in. If that doesn't work, we will parachute in. But we are going to get health-care reform passed.
– House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Jan. 28, 2010
Apropos stomping on the gas: Pelosi has essentially said that Congress is going to force-feed Americans their brand of health-care "reform" whether we like it or not, and whether or not she and the president can get the congressional (Democratic) majority to go along with it. There's also more than an intimation there that we're too stupid to know what's good for us.
The way some of you have gone after this bill, you'd think this was some … Bolshevik plot.
– President Obama, Jan. 29, 2010, to GOP members of the House

ENDTIME PROPHECY NET
As our name implies, Endtime Prophecy Net is dedicated to the study of Endtime prophetic events. We emphasize watching for the fulfillment of such Endtime events as the appearance of the Antichrist; the Battle of Armageddon; the 666, (Mark of the Beast); the Great Tribulation; and more here...
Do not doubt! Prophecy is being fulfilled, and we are living in the Endtime! The Antichrist may be alive today! The Battle of Armageddon is drawing closer in the Middle East! It is only a matter of time before the Beast implements his Mark of the Beast / 666 credit system with help from the False Prophet, and many will then experience Great Tribulation before the Rapture occurs! Babylon the Great too will burn! Even now the Jews wait to rebuild their temple so that they can resume the Daily Sacrifice. The Holy Covenant will make it possible.
This is not fiction; the events described in the Book of Revelation are fact! Jesus Christ is coming for His children, and He will lead us into the Millennium! Are you ready for these Endtime events of the Apocalypse, or will you be left behind?
Prophecy in the news
What it all means
Perhaps you are wondering what all this means, or why would someone go to the bother of collecting a bunch of news articles which somehow relate to prophecies in the Bible which were written thousands of years ago.
The events alone of the past fifty years should speak volumes to anyone who knows anything about the Bible. Within the past fifty years, we have seen a lot of prophecies (God's promises) fulfilled. To name a few...
- The rise of the European Union - the world's last great empire (Daniel 7:7, Revelation 13)
- The creation of a European army (Daniel 11:38-39)
- Rebirth of the nation of Israel after 1900 years, and back in their own land (Jeremiah 23:7-8, and many other places)
- Restoration of Biblical Hebrew, as a living language (Zephaniah 3:9)
- Personal identification chips - now used widely (Revelation 13:16-18)
- And so much more here...
.Nobody can deny all these things have happened, or will soon happen. They are in the news almost every week. But what does that mean for us? The Bible foretold all these things would happen, shortly before the Lord Jesus Christ returns to earth as King of Kings and Lord of Lords.

The War Against Terrorism in Light of Bible Prophecy
Make no mistake. We are at war with international terrorism. All of us who love freedom and democracy are now "in harms way." The thousands of fanatic Islamic terrorists who hid in over seventy nations across the globe have declared war on the nations, the people, and the values of the Western world. The West has been governed for centuries by a set of values derived fundamentally from the Judeo-Christian Scriptures and the Enlightenment. Click here to continue...
This war against international terrorism is a war directed at the tens of thousands of extremist Islamic terrorists who have launched hundreds of terrorist attacks against Western interests in the last three decades. It is not a war against worldwide Islam. The available evidence suggests that less than one tenth of one percent of those who are Muslims are part of the fanatical and extremist groups who support and give their lives to the terrorist attacks.
