United States Vetoes Ukraine's Application to Join NATO

Under President Obama, the United States continues to run scared and display weakness. With the recent Russian aggression in Ukraine and the subsequent annexation of Crimea, the United States has abandoned Ukraine to Putin telling Ukrainian officials in private that the United States will veto any attempt by Ukraine to join NATO.

Obama lives in a world of his own making that has no connection to the real world. Being played by Putin, he continues to believe the world is a rosy place in which if people only talk everything will be better. With this naivete', Obama allows himself to be played by those who see the world differently - and more realistically.

Our Liar-in-Chief is now saying that he hopes to avoid a hot war with Russia and will do anything and everything in his power to avoid it. If only Reagan were President now. Reagan understood tyrants and bullies and real-world politics. If Reagan were President, the Russian aggression of Ukraine would probably never have happened.

Those who use force to achieve their aims are stopped only by the threat of force. Talk has little sway over them because they do not believe in talk unless it serves their purpose - which is to attain more of their political or military agenda. Obama has walked into this quicksand by wearing rose-colored glasses that do not permit him to see quicksand or quagmires. As a result, Obama's actions over the last five years have encouraged tyrants, despots, dictators and powerful nations around the world to exercise their power to achieve their aims at the expense of the White House and the rule of law. Not only is Putin's actions a case in point, but so is Chinese action in the western Pacific, Assad's actions in Syria and Kim's actions in North Korea. Will there be another international ploy by someone who wants to play Obama?

Obama is getting played, and what is really sad is he doesn't even know it. By abandoning Ukraine and vetoing any application by Ukraine to join NATO, the United States is only making the current situation worse and laying the groundwork for more repercussions from other states and non-state actors in the future. Obama is making thins worse not better. Obama is making the world less safe, not more safe.

Obama has a view of geopolitics that is naive at best and dangerous at worst. To prevent a hot war as he seeks, you must prepare for one. Only by displaying strength do you prevent wars, not by appearing weak or appeasing bullies. This was a lesson we laerned during World War Two, but Obama seems never to have learned it nor studied history.

Our worst President in history may destroy the United States yet. This Amateur in the White House remains the worst choice the American people have made in our deteriorating state of the Executive office. From bad to worse, the caliber of our President's have been sliding downhill since Ronald Reagan. I feel only God can save us now. It is certainly beyond any human's capability and far beyond President Obama's.

Ukraine: The Beginning of World War 3?

The invasion of the Crimean peninsula of Ukraine by Russia on Friday, February 28th represents a clear and dangerous challenge to European peace and stability and the international rule of law.

This challenge to international law is a direct result of the failed foreign policy of a weak United States President who imposes "lines in the sand" and then turns around and runs away with his tail between his legs whenever any of his lines is crossed.

This cowardly action on the part of the current American Administration has emboldened powerful tyrants and despots around the world. The only time the current American President shows a stiff spine is when he is siccing the IRS and other executive tools against the very American people whose civil rights and liberty he is supposed to be protecting.

From a vacillating President, whose domestic policy is as much a shambles and train wreck as his foreign policy, we have a weakened American military which may be unable to adequately protect American interests and defend American allies.

Now is the time of decision. The President must act quickly, he must act decisively and he must act forcefully. Diplomatic solutions are ineffective with those who would use force to achieve their aims, unless they have already succeeded in those aims.

The worst that could happen is for the American President to do nothing except express grave concerns and spout unnamed "consequences" for the actions of those who would flout world peace and stability. To do nothing now only will embolden and encourage dictators, despots and tyrants around the world. Syria's Assad, North Korea's Kim, Iran, China and terrorist groups around the world may all be emboldened and encouraged to seek aggression to achieve their aims.

The President must act quickly. He must act decisively and he must act forcefully. These three aspects are outside the character of the American President who usually chooses to vacillate, to appease and then to turn tail whenever he is directly challenged. But the President must find it somewhere within himself to act, for now is the time for deliberate and forceful action.

The Russian President must be made aware that world tolerance for this type of behavior on the part of a great power will not be tolerated. Therefore, I propose the following actions to be taken immediately:
1. Cancellation of the G8 Summit in Sochi to be relocated to Paris or London and reconstituted as a G7 Summit.
2. Send elements of the 101st Air Assault and 102nd Airborne to Kiev.
3. Request the Polish President to request American anti-air and Patriot missile batteries to the border between Poland and Russia.
4. Send Patriot and anti-air batteries to the Czech Republic, Slovakia and Ukraine to be replaced with permanent anti-aircraft and anti-missile batteries at some point in the future.
5. Send U.S. naval forces to shadow Russian fleet movements in the Mediterranean, the Black Sea, off the Atlantic seaboard of the United States and in the Caribbean and Gulf of Mexico.
6. Freeze Russian assets in United States banks, the World Bank and the IMF.
7. Convene the UN Security Council to deliver a strong denunciation of Russian actions in Ukraine.
8. Call upon NATO to consider troop allocations and deployment within Europe and Turkey in light of the Russian aggression.

These steps are incremental, limited and deliberate. They constitute a forceful response to the Russian invasion in Crimea and all of these except for creating the East European missile shield are open to negotiation between Russia and the western powers.

By showing restraint coupled with the limited steps I have proposed, Russia will need to negotiate. The future of Crimea must be left to the people of Crimea and Ukraine, it cannot be and must not be allowed to be decided by a malevolent dictator bent on the forceful acquisition of a peaceful people. Russian troops must roll back to the bases within Russia, and 150,000 Russian troops on the border of Ukraine must return to their bases. The steps I have herein proposed will help assure that these measures occur.

The American President must act. To do nothing now will only encourage those around the world to use force to achieve their aims. They will be opposed by those who have the courage to oppose but who may not have the might to do so. This would lead to war. The American President must act quickly, decisively and forcefully now because to do nothing could very well lead to the beginning of World War Three.

As Gunshots Shatter Our Lives

The recent tragedy at the mall in New Jersey gives us all pause. Mass shootings in America are increasing.

My fear is this: That President Obama will use this spate of recent shootings and future shootings as an excuse to seize guns from the hands of the American people. Under the PATRIOT Act, he already has authority to do this. All he has to do is declare a national emergency of some kind and assume the authority granted by President by Bush's treasonous PATRIOT Act.

Why these shootings are occurring is a different question. Whether these shootings are initiated by a conspiracy of The Powers That Be or whether they are initiated by Satan or whether they are merely a coincidence or a function of the new American Way of Life, the fact that they are coming more rapidly, at an increasing pace cannot be denied. America is in a state of siege.

Confiscating the guns of Americans would be the wrong path to take. The right path would be a massive renewal of faith, a returning back to Jesus Christ our Savior and repenting of the sins of our nation. Without this mass revival, it is most likely that any other measure would fail to provide any actual safety although the illusion of safety may be instilled.

If current gun violence is a function of higher powers whose goal is to rid America of guns, then confiscating guns would quell the violence of guns. If the current gun violence is not a function of higher powers but rather a function of the current American Way of Life or some form of tragic coincidence, then the confiscation of guns will do little to quell the spate of mass shootings.

It is curious that the rash of recent tragedies in America have all coincided with a Federal drill mirroring the same type of incident as the real tragedy. For example, the bombings at the Boston Marathon coincided with a federal drill based around a bombing by terrorists at the Boston Marathon. In fact, the timing of the bombings matched the drill bombing timetable exactly. The tragedy of 9/11 coincided with a federal drill in which armed terrorists would hijack commercial airliners and fly them into the World Trade Center, the Pentagon and the Capitol building. The shooting at the Washington (D.C.) Navy Yard coincided with a federal drill in which an armed attacker fired shots near the Washington Navy Yard.

Each recent major event seems to coincide with a federal drill based on the same incident. I may believe in coincidences, but this is stretching coincidence to an extreme.

If federal planning coincides with each mass shooting and terrorist incident over the past 11 years, would this be indicative of some sort of planning of these incidents at a high level of government?

I leave the answer to that question to you, for me, I have already reached a conclusion.

North Korea

North Korea continues its bellicose rhetoric thinking it can defy international standards of order. Following continued statements throughout the week, North Korea today moved a long range missile to its east coast. This missile may have the range to reach the west coast of the United States.

President Obama's response to date has been extremely measured. A series of military exercises have been ongoing on the Korean peninsula conducted in conjunction with out South Korean allies. In response to Kim Jung Un's saber rattling, the United States has sent in two B2 Stealth bombers that dropped inert munitions on a training range on an island off South Korea, moved two destroyers into the region and transferred two F-22 Stealth fighters to a base in South Korea.

The Administration has also spoken of moving an offshore anti-missile platform into the region and beefing up anti-missile missiles in Alaska and Guam. But combined with the continued warmongering by North Korea which has upped the ante by positioning a long range missile on its east coast, the United States must in like turn up the ante.

Continued posturing by the current Administration is no longer enough to indicate to North Korea the resolve of the United States. Additional measures that North Korea can clearly understand must be initiated immediately in order to quell North Korea's bloodthirst for war.

The following actions must be immediately taken by the United States:

1. Move a carrier battle group into the region.
2. Move at least 1 and possibly up to 3 amphibious groups into the region.
3. Move a squadron of F-22 Stealth fighters to South Korea.
4. Move a squadron of F-35 Stealth fighters into the region.
5. Accelerate the trials of the F-37 naval Stealth fighter.
6. Open the current wargames to participation by the 82nd Airborne.
7. Open the current wargames to participation by the 101st Air Assault.
8. Announce to North Korea that all talks between the U.S. and North Korea are on hold until North Korea terminates its wartalk and saber rattling.
9. Announce to North Korea that the United States has opened talks with Mongolia, Russia and China to preposition interceptor missiles manned by American military personnel on their territory.
10. Move three guided missile and four attack submarines into the region.
11. Announce that the current wargames with South Korea will be extended by one month.
12. Announce to North Korea that all these actions are solely in response to North Korean actions over the last several weeks.
13. Announce to North Korea that these actions are irrevocable and that these forces will be removed only after a 90 day period of time in which the rhetoric and actions from North Korea maintain acceptable international standards of order.
14. The American President will go on TV to announce to the American people publicly the steps taken in 1 - 8 above and 10 - 13 above and reiterate that these measures are appropriate and responsible and taken only in response to the continuing threats to the United States and its allies by North Korea and that these measures will be reversed only when North Korea can demonstrate that it is a responsible member of the international community.

Obama, the Pope and the Ice Sculpture in Jerusalem

Obama is due to arrive in Jerusalem on March 20, according to local Israeli newspapers. At the top of the President's agenda is to convince (confirm?) Prime Minister Netanyahu that the US is serious about preventing Iran from developing a nuclear bomb. Is this "And he will confirm a covenant with many." - Daniel 9:27?

On the second day of Obama's visit, at precisely noon time, Obama will visit a model of Jerusalem during the Second Temple period.

Israel is also featuring an Ice Festival during the months of March and April. Although it is unclear if Obama will visit, a sculpture has been constructed in his image. Revelation 13:15 - "The second beast (the Pope?) was given power to give breath to the image of the first beast so that the image could speak and cause all who refused to worship the image to be killed."

According to the prophecy of Saint Malachy written in 1138 A.D. St. Malachy stated there would be 112 popes of the Roman Catholic Church. St. Malachy did not assign names to these popes, but rather he described them in a descriptive manner. Pope number 111 he described as being of the olives or somehow being connected to olives. To some of his friends, Pope Benedict - who has recently resigned - was known as the Olivet Pope. Pope Benedict was also pope number 111.

Saint Malachy did make one exception in his descriptions of the future Popes of the Catholic Church. He said the final Pope, Pope number 112, would be a black man whom he named Peter of Rome.

Revelation 8:1, "When he opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven for about half an hour." On February 3, 2013, the Superbowl was played between the Baltimore Ravens and the San Francisco 49er's. About a minute and a half into the third quarter following a 109 yard punt return by Jacoby Jones, the lights went out in the stadium. After about half an hour (34 minutes) the lights came on again. I have heard, and I tend to agree, that this period of about half an hour is symbolic of Revelation 8:1.

The second half of this game was also totally different than the first half. Although the Ravens held off the attack by San Francisco, the game was a much different game in the second half than it was during the first half. I believe this is also God's way of saying that the next three and a half years will be totally different than the last three and a half years.

A couple of years ago while sitting in church on a Sunday morning, I suddenly felt the impression to write something. I grabbed a church bulletin and on the back of it I wrote, "Within the next five days, the world will have changed." Five days later, the Arab Spring began.

I have that sane feeling again. But this time, I have this feeling: Within the next ten days, the world will have changed.

God is coming, Jesus will be here soon, I am ready to meet my maker (can;t wait in fact) are you ready?
