"VOICE IN THE WILDERNESS" FORWARDED TO ME BY MY GOOD FRIEND RAY BARTON.

Hi Brian, Don’t know if you get Voice in the Wilderness from Antony Simon but I’m sure you will enjoy reading his experiences in Northern Iraq. At the end he also refutes some of the information which had been distributed sometime earlier which is interesting,

God bless

Ray

Voice in the wilderness October 2014 Turkey and Iraq , October 2014 I left Jerusalem on Saturday at around 3:45 in a shared taxi on my way to Turkey for 3 days and Iraq for 13 days and back to Turkey for a further 5 days . The purpose of the trip was to help Iraqi refugees who are in Kurdistan and in Eastern Turkey . No one wanted to talk to me in the shared taxi to the airport, I received a cold shoulder. At the airport I spoke to an Austrian young man about the Gospel who was an intern at the Yad Vashem, and was able to explain to him the biblical faith . In Istanbul I met another man who we picked up in our taxi in Jerusalem. We had a long chat about the existence of God and creation. This man was a transit passenger and ended up being the last passenger to go through . So there is our timing and there is God's timing . I had a bag full of players with audio Bible recorded on them, hundred of those players, and did not want to get stopped at customs . The people before me were stopped , but I past through with no problem and after customs got a bus to Istanbul, though missed the first one and had to wait for the next bus. On the second bus I met an Armenian Turk, nominal Christian and he confessed he was a homosexual. Certainly I wanted to tell him that homosexuality is a sin but I guess they know that already - it's just liberals who tell them that it's not . In the end I said, "you should read the Bible" and he said, "yes I should" and I ended up giving him the New Testament . The person who was supposed to meet me was not there. I crossed the road and saw a man sitting on the steps and asked if I could use his phone . He called and the brother who was supposed to meet us told him to tell me to come to Burger King. The man who helped me with the phone turned out to be an Iranian student who was a protester in Iran and disillusioned with Islam. He walked with me and in the end he gave me his number and took a New Testament in Turkish. I past his number to the pastor of the Iranian church in Istanbul. I am so glad that he was waiting for his mother and his mother was delayed and that my friend was not there, so we could meet. My friend and I went straight to get Bibles; first we went to a branch of the Roman Catholic institution to check their prices and then to the Bible Society so we were able to arm ourselves with the greatest and most powerful weapon that can destroy the kingdom of darkness. At the Roman place of worship, we saw many people, including Muslims, buying candles. Sadly they don't preach the Gospel as they don't have a Gospel to preach. We ended up handing out some New Testaments and when we returned to Istanbul we handed out a number to some Muslims, those whom we met at Roman Catholic Church building. The church workers were not so happy with us for evangelizing. We had many opportunities to witness in Istanbul. One black Muslim man we met on a bus was so happy to talk to us and said, "I have been here many months and you are the first people who have spoken to me and treated me well . They usually call me terrible names!" We gave him a New Testament and hugged each other on departing. We met a waiter who had a tattoo with "God is love" and we told him where it came from and gave him the Bible in Turkish. I stayed in an area in Istanbul that is full of communists and Leninists, and had a good time presenting the Gospel to the host (where I was staying) and his friends. After 3 days in Turkey we flew into Iraq to prepare the way for the rest of our team in all there were 9 members: 5 Americans, 1 German, a Canadian, a man from South Africa, and me. After all the preparations we began the ministry. Main purpose was the Gospel then Aid. We visited a group of Iraqi internally displaced Christian nominal refugees who were living now in a church building. Many people fled with only the clothes they were wearing . They lost everything . We met an Iraqi believer who lost two houses and a business and yet he is rich in the true sense of the word. He has the Lord Jesus , as the Scriptures say, "Into us who believe He is precious" and we were able to minister to each other. As we went around the area of Erbil we met many interesting people that we could minister to, hand out Gospels and challenge especially the nominal Christians. We met a young man from Bartilla near Nineveh. His family escaped from ISIS a day before they entered into their city and some people escaped even an hour before the darkness fell . He said That he was so busy and had no time to think about spiritual things, but now he has time. He said that he knows God is in control of all things and even the situation they found themselves in. Another man was forced to confess Islam but refused and managed to escape to Erbil with his family. We met him at an unused mall turned into a refugee center and the priest running the center gave us permission to hand out New Testaments and literature. Many of the Christian refugees are from Qarakosh and if you would have gone there to preach the Gospel it would have been a miracle if you would have escaped alive. They fled with nothing and now they are open and their priests are encouraging Bible distribution. One day we traveled in the direction of Iran for around 2.5 hours and when we got there we gave out hundreds of New Testaments and blankets in a refugee center. I managed to preach in public there for a few minutes. After our distribution of books and blankets someone complained about us to the Imam of the Mosque who contacted the authorities . The local pastor said, "they will come to us and we will have problems after you leave", but he was so glad that we came with the Gospel. He said that this was the first time in six years that anyone has done evangelism in his town and we have given them great encouragement to continue . The problem is that very few give the Gospel - they just give material aid. In the same place we got to preach to some nominal Christians and hand out blankets and New Testaments, and these people were very happy to see us. One of the local believers in this town who helped us was an Iranian believer. The Lord saved him out of Islam 3 years ago by reading the New Testament. He escaped persecution into Iraq. Since then he has been to several countries including Iran. Six months ago he was caught in Iran with 10 Bibles. He was arrested and interrogated. He told them he was a Muslim but he is now a Christian. He was afraid of what they would do to him but the Lord intervened: the police became unable to speak to him. They could only grunt and motioned to him to leave! It's so encouraging to meet this dear man. We traveled one day to the border with Turkey to distribute blankets and New Testaments to Yazidis. http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yazidis We went to distribute New Testaments and children's books and blankets to Yazidi refugees. One of the leaders of the Yazidis was a man who was on Sinjar mountain for 15 days, four days without food . We could never have gone to them because they live in a dangerous part of Iraq but they have come to us so we can evangelize them. The authorities turned up as we were distributing the Bibles and took them from the Yazidis and they left them on our van but the Yazidis stole them back. During our whole trip in Iraq we distributed around 7000 New Testaments and also many children's books and audio players. We were also able to help many children with heart defects get connected to an organization that brings sick children to Israel for free treatment . After Iraq we flew back to Turkey for a few days to try and aid the refugees residing in Turkey which was much more difficult as we had to deal with officials in the east of the country who have connections to left wing political groups . We made a few mistakes by taking pictures as these people were a little paranoid and were not used to the picture culture. I say this not to criticize anyone but to encourage others in a similar situation not to make the same mistakes, especially in sensitive places and delicate situations. They asked us for weapons, so they can defend the city of Kabane against ISIS and we said we are Christians and the greatest weapon is the power to forgive - in fact you need more power to forgive than to fight. At that time the Kurds were demonstrating against the Turkish government's unwillingness to help the Kabane Kurds in any way and in fact they were hindering their defense and even would not treat the wounded . While we were in Eastern Turkey, the place we were originally supposed to go and help with the refugees became under curfew for several days because of the riots and constant tear gas firing at the demonstrators over the Turkish refusal to aid Kabane; therefore, we had no choice but to return to Istanbul. We did manage to distribute New Testaments in Kurdish and in Turkish and Arabic. The day before we were to fly out we spent the day doing evangelism in Istanbul and handing out Turkish and many Arabic New Testaments to those who crossed our paths in Istanbul . It was a great trip and a great blessing. I am writing from Rome . I am taking a family holiday in Italy and the Lord is giving us many opportunities to witness even in Italy . Thanks for your prayers and support Be blessed Antony and Dona Simon and the Voice in the Wilderness Team This is a letter circulating the net and in the end of this page you can read my response to it. The letter goes the following: PLEASE READ, PRAY AND FORWARD AND THEN PRAY AGAIN. Prayer warriors needed urgently! This is urgent news from Samaritans Purse, for prayer from Chaplains with Rapid Response Team. "We lost the city of Queragosh (Qaraqosh). It fell to ISIS and they are beheading children systematically. This is the city we have been smuggling food too. ISIS has pushed back Peshmergia (Kurdish forces) and is within 10 minutes of where our CRI team is working. Thousands more fled into the city of Erbil last night. The UN evacuated its staff in Erbil. Our team is unmoved and will stay. Prayer cover needed!” Please pray sincerely for the deliverance of the people of Northern Iraq from the terrible advancement of ISIS and it's extreme Islamic goals for mass conversion to Islam, or death for Christians across this region. I plead with you not to ignore this email. Please do not forward it before you have prayed through it. Then send it to as many people as possible. Send it to friends and Christians you may know. Send it to your prayer group. We need to stand in the gap for our fellow Christians. My response to this letter: Sorry to tell you but this information you give is more than seven weeks old. There were no people killed by ISIS in Qarakosh, only by shelling before the Pershmega left. When the Peshmerga retreated then all the Christians (nominal) fled to Erbil on foot , by Wheels , where they found different kinds of shelter and are all safe. It is important to understand that the majority of them are just traditional, nominal Christians, and the Gospel must be preached to them as we need to preach to all the lost. I had an opportunity recently to hand these refugees New Testaments and children's books. Please, pray for their salvation. Be blessed Antony Simon

THE LATEST "CARMEL ALERT" FROM OUT OF ZION MINISTRIES IN JERUSALEM.

A Messianic Ministry Based on Mt Carmel 
Out of Zion Ministries under the spiritual covering of  Carmel Assembly, Pastor  Mike Fryer  &  Motte Sircus  
               The CARMEL ALERT  October  17th 2014
 A compilation of news reports from the past week for the information of those committed to praying 
for Israel & the Jewish people

David's Comment:   Flying in the Face of the Creator of the Universe
Jeremiah 30:3  'For behold, the days are coming,' says the LORD, 'that I will bring back from captivity My people Israel and Judah,' says the LORD. 'And I will cause them to return to the land that I gave to their fathers, and they shall possess it.'"  (NKJ)

This week the seriously misguided government of the United Kingdom joined seriously misguided new government of Sweden in the officially recognising the so-called state of Palestine.  The making this decision, these foolish politicians, had placed their the nations on a head on collision course with the Holy One of Israel and will soon experiece the heat of His wrath. It is highy likely that many more nations will follow suit in the weeks and months ahead.

There are dozens of Bible verses like the one above, that speak about the Lord's intention to return all of the Jewish people from both the house of Israel and the house of Judah, to the land of Israel at the end if the current age.  Acts 3:21 tells us that Yeshua must remain in heaven until the time of the fulfillment of all the words of the Old Testament prophets.. Thus the return is an absolute pre-requisite before Yeshua can return to establish the Millenium reign.   Therefore every Bible believing Christian should be excited by the ongoing return of the Jewish people to the land of their forefathers. Not only excited by, but participating in some way to assist Jewish people from every nation to get back to Israel as soon as possible.  We should not be saying  "MARANATHA" unless we are doing something about it.

As a result of the many wars over the last 100 years, more than 100 million people have been made homeless refugees.  The United Nations, and its predecessor, the League of Nations, worked very effectively to permanently re--settle or relocate nearly all of these 100 million refugees - all except the so called Palestinian refugees that is.  By the way, the news media has always told the world that the so called Palestinians in the the Middle East live in 'refugee camps' giving the impression that they live in tents.  Even I had that impression until several years ago. But they do not live in tents. These refugee camps are actually normal concrete dwellimgs in Arab towns and cities.

Why do I write ''so called Palestinians" ?  Because there is no such thing as a Palestinian.  Even the word is illegitimate in God's eyes. The Romans invented the name to remove the connection to God that is found in the name IsraEL.  From the restoration of Israel in 1948 until the 6 Day War of 1967, Jordan annexed and controlled East Jerusalem and the so called West Bank, with Arabs from every surrounding country living under Jordanian control. During that time there was never any talk of a Palestinian people.  There was the Palestine Philharmonic Orchestra, the Palestine Post and the Palestine Electric Company, but they were all Jewish. If there was such a thing as Palestinian people, they would be Jewish not Arab. Its all an Islam / media fabrication. - A HUGE LIE !!!

One must also ask "Why have the so called Palestinians refugees living in other countries never been permanently resettled ?  Initially there were about 850,000 displaced - now their offspring numbers more than 3.5 million, and the Saudi Arabian peace plan calls for their right of return to Israel, thus ensuring the eventual demise of the Jewish state of Israel.  Can you see why the refugees were never resettled ?  It was the Devil's plan to keep them as the bait with which to hook the once Christian Western world into standing alongside the Muslim world in the destruction of Israel, preventing the second coming of Messiah. I can understand the secular unbelievers going along with Satan's plan, but why people who claim to be Christians side with the so called Palestinains ?   To cut the size of Israel back, or to stop the return of the Jewish people, or to overun the country with non-Jews, is to delay or totally prevent the return of the Lord.

To close on a positive note, we must surely be living in what the prophets called the end of the age, or the latter days. Let's hasten the day of the Lord's return by praying that our pastors will have a revelation of this message, getting our churches involved in bringing the Jews home.  Lets be praying for the Western leaders to wake up, and lets pray Psalm 83 over all who conspire against the Lord's land and people.
!
The Lord bless you as you bless Israel by standing in defense of her right to exist in the land given to the Jewish people by the God of Israel.  Please pray that Israel will turn back to their God.  Do not be silent at this most strategic time, but share this with your fellow Christians, share it with your pastors, and with anyone you have a chance to speak to.  Please also pray for a major break-through to the Muslim world, and please remember to pray for all of the soldiers in the IDF - they are defending and fighting for the soon coming of Messiah and the Kingdom of God.

Shabbat Shalom .... David & Josie 

THIS WEEKS NEWS REPORTS    

1.  Spain May be the Next to Recognise Palestinian State   Jerusalem Post Oct 17th
  The Spanish parliament is reportedly set to vote on recognising Palestinian statehood following suit of British lawmakers last week, according to Al Arabiya on Thursday.  The report came following a vote in Britain’s House of Commons on Monday in favour of recognizing a Palestinian state alongside Israel. While the motion did not alter the government's stance on the issue, it carried symbolic value for Palestinians in their pursuit of statehood.  Israel dismissed the diplomatic significance of the symbolic vote by refusing to dignify it with a formal response from Jerusalem.    Instead, its embassy in London issued a statement;....  “There should be no illusion that a unilateral call for premature recognition of Palestine advances peace in any way whatsoever. It fails to address the real obstacles to peace, including the Palestinian insistence on a ‘right of return,’ which undermines the very concept of two states for two peoples, as well as the need for genuine security arrangements to prevent further mass attacks on Israeli civilians,” the statement read.Lets pray that Spains leaders will not be so foolish as to recognise a state that has never existed and will never exist

2.  Iran Arming Hamas for Next War With Israel   Israel Today News   Oct 16th
   Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei promised increased support for Arab Palestinian terrorists and urged them to stockpile arms in anticipation of a new war on Israel, according to public comments made Thursday following his meeting with members of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) terror group.  "Fighting the Zionist regime [Israel] is a war of destiny," Khamenei [prophetically!] said after a meeting with PIJ's secretary general, according to Iran's semi-official Fars News Agency.  Khamenei instructed Arab Palestinians to "intensify their fight against the Israeli regime" and vowed that Iran would continue to arm Palestinian terrorists in both the Gaza Strip and West Bank, according to Fars.  All Palestinian terrorists groups-with Iran's support-should rearm and prepare for another war with Israel, Khamenei said.  "The resistance movements in Palestine should boost their preparedness day by day and reinforce their power resources inside Gaza," Khamenei was quoted as saying Thursday, less than two months after Israel launched an intense several week war against Hamas militants in the Gaza Strip.  Khamenei maintained that the most recent war with Israel, in which thousands of terror rockets were dropped on the Jewish people, marked the start of the "divine promise" of destroying the Jewish state.  Please pray that Iran's actions will be dealt with by the United Nations

3.  FM Lieberman: Abbas Has Joined IS    Times of Israel News   Oct 19th
    Israel's Foreign Minister Avigdor Liberman on Saturday compared PA President Mahmoud Abbas to the Islamic State and said that the Palestinian leader’s call to defend the Temple Mount from “settlers” is evidence of his attempt to fan the flames of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and turn it into a religious war.  The foreign minister was responding to remarks by Abbas on Friday, in which the PA  leader said  that Israeli “settlers” had no right to “desecrate” the Temple Mount and should be prevented from accessing the site deemed holy to both Judaism and Islam. Abbas reiterated those statements Saturday, saying his people should guard a Jerusalem holy site against visiting Jews, whom he referred to as a “herd of cattle.”  Liberman castigated Abbas and the PLO, saying they stood behind the recent spate of violence in East Jerusalem. He said Abbas was calling for a holy war, and thus joins the ranks of radical Islamist groups such as the Islamic State and the Nusra Front. Please pray that Abbas will ultimately shoot himself in the foot

4.  Two Israeli Soldiers Wounded on Egyptian Border   Times of Israel News  Oct 22nd
    Gunmen in the Sinai Peninsula opened fire on an IDF patrol near the Egyptian border on Wednesday afternoon, injuring two soldiers. Both the IDF and Egyptian army were sending troops to the area.  The Israeli soldiers reportedly returned fire and there were ongoing exchanges in the area. Egyptian security sources said that the radical Islamist group Ansar Bayt al-Maqdis was behind the attack. According to Egyptian officials quoted by Channel 2, three gunmen approached the border in a four-by-four and opened fire. The officials said Egyptian soldiers were injured in the incident, but it wasn’t clear from the report how many or by whom.  The incident occurred near Mount Harif in the central Negev Desert, about 112 kilometers from Eilat.  The soldiers came under anti-tank- and gunfire, he said, noting that the wounded soldiers were not in critical condition.  A female company commander in the Caracal Battalion, which patrols the area, suffered light injuries  and a second soldier was in serious condition;   Residents of the area were instructed to remain in their homes.  The al-Arabiya news outlet cited sources in Egypt reporting Egyptian soldiers who were chasing smugglers accidentally fired the shots at the troops.  The Sinai Peninsula is home to numerous Islamist terror groups, including Ansar Bayt al-Maqdis, which was responsible for an attack earlier this year on a bus headed for Israel at the Taba border crossing that left four tourists dead.  Please pray for the wounded soldiers

5.  Baby Girl Killed in Jerusalem Terror Attack   Israel Today News   Oct 23rd
    A three month-old little girl was killed on Wednesday evening and another seven people were injured, some of them seriously, in a terrorist attack on innocent civilians waiting at a Jerusalem light-rail stop. The terrorist, a 20 year-old "Palestinian", drove his car into the crowd of people as they waited at the Ammunition Hill stop. The driver attempted to flle on foot after the attack but was shot by a police officer. He later died in hospital.   The incident occurred just before 6pm local time. Police spokesperson Micky Rosenfeld said Thursday morning that, "the perpetrator had tried to kill as many Jews as possible."   The culprit was, according to officials, a resident of the Jerusalem neighborhood of Silwan with a known background of violence and had already served a prison sentence for terrorist activities. A Hamas spokesperson was quick to claim that the terrorists actions were, "the natural response to Israel's actions in Jerusalem", while his family stated that this was not a terrorist attack but rather a simple traffic accident.  Surveillance camera footage showed how the vehicle deliberately turned and was targeted into the crowd at the light-rail stop.
   There were dramatic scenes at the site of the attack as the mother of the little girl frantically tried to get the assistance of paramedics for her child, with severe head injuries, but to no avail. The little girl died a short time later in Hadassah hospital from her injuries.  Israeli Prime Minister, Binyamin Netanyahu, accused the Palestinian President, Mahmoud Abbas, of complicity in the killing. Netanyahu stated, "this is the way that its government partners work!" He was referring to the Palestinian unity government in which the Hamas terror group is represented. Abbas had earlier this week provoked attacks on Jews by calling for "the protection of the Al Aqsa Mosque from Jewish settlers by any means possible!"
   Shortly after the news filtered back that the terrorist had died, masked Arab youths started rioting and clashing with police that tried to restore order. They caused several streets in the Silwan and Issawiya neighborhoods to be blocked off by settings tires on fire, stone-throwing and setting off fireworks.   The Jerusalem light-rail tram has been repeatedly attacked and damaged in recent weeks by Arab rioters. Wednesday night was no exception as the light-rail tram was again attacked by stone-throwers. Please pray for the family of the baby that they will find Shalom from their pain in Yeshua

6. Daughter of Hamas Leaders Treated in Israeli Hospital  Reuters News   Oct 21
  A daughter of Gaza Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh was admitted to an Israeli hospital for emergency medical treatment this month after she suffered complications from a routine procedure, sources familiar with the case said. Her week-long admission to a hospital in Tel Aviv shows humanitarian coordination between the sides. During the Gaza war and since it ended in August, dozens of patients have been brought to hospitals in Israel for treatment. (

7.  More Hotel Rooms Planned for Jerusalem
   The Jerusalem Municipality and the Jerusalem Development Authority have taken steps in recent days to streamline the process of building new hotel rooms in an effort to increase the availability of temporary lodging in Israel's capital and lower prices for visitors. The goal is to build 1,226 rooms within two years.  

SWARMS OF HIGHLY INTELLIGENT MILITARISED ROBOTS ARE PREDICTED TO HIT THE BATTLEFIELDS IN THE NEAR FUTURE!!

‘Swarms of Cooperative, Autonomous’ Robots To Hit Battlefields

Swarms of highly intelligent militarized robots are predicted to hit the battlefield in the near future and could spark a modern day arms race, according to a report released Monday by the Center for a New American Security (CNAS).

Teams of interconnected robots will change the way America and other countries fight their wars, providing them with more range and the ability to conduct “suicidal missions” without risk to living humans, according to the report, entitled, “Robotics on the Battlefield Part II: The Coming Swarm.”

The study predicts that in the very near future, advances in technology will allow “swarms of robotic systems” to effect “dramatic, disruptive change to military operations”—and that the United States must significantly step up its focus on these technologies or risk losing its status as the world’s preeminent fighting force.

“Swarms of robotic systems can bring greater mass, coordination, intelligence, and speed to the battlefield, enhancing the ability of warfighters to gain a decisive advantage over their adversaries,” the report states.

While the United States and other major powers have made great advances in unmanned technologies—such as drones and other remotely piloted devices—the report predicts that global militaries will soon enter a race to perfect the tactic known as “swarming,” in which droves of militarized robots act together on the battlefield.

“Many of the game-changing innovations that enable swarming … will be widely available to a range of actors,” the reports states.

However, severe U.S. defense budget cuts known as sequestration threaten to stymie America’s investment into these critical new technologies and could leave the country vulnerable to enemies, according to the report.

“Today the U.S. military faces a pernicious cycle of ever rising platform costs and shrinking quantities,” it states. “As a result, the number of combat ships and aircraft in the U.S. inventory has steadily declined, even during periods of significant growth in defense spending.”

“Today’s acute fiscal pressures only exacerbate these trends, forcing a crisis not only in military modernization and readiness, but also in the ability to field sufficient quantities to be relevant in future fights,” the report warns.

The United States continues to make major investments in “increasingly exquisite systems” in order to compensate for its lack of more nimble robotic technologies. This model, however, “is not sustainable,” according to the report, and could allow even rogue state-actors to gain an upper hand over U.S. forces.

“As precision-guided munitions proliferate to other adversaries—both state and non-state actors—the shrinking numbers of U.S. combat assets becomes a major strategic liability,” the report warns. “Adversaries can concentrate their weapons, which are becoming increasingly accurate and capable at ever-longer ranges, on the relatively small number of U.S. ships and bases, overwhelming their defenses.”

The American military is not yet investing enough in these interconnected unmanned systems, which would actually cost less in the long run, the report says.

“A new paradigm is needed, one that sustains the qualitative superiority of U.S. forces in aggregate, but that disperses combat power among a greater number of platforms, increasing resiliency and diversity and imposing costs on adversaries,” the report says.

“Militaries that figure out how best to employ swarms, along with the doctrine, training, command-and-control structures, and other key enablers needed to support them, will have a significant advantage over those who do not,” the report concludes.

The CNAS report goes on to suggest that the Pentagon begin studying “swarming platforms” and allocate funding for “a multi-year series of experiments” to test various technologies.

A “Defense Robotics Systems Office” also should be created in the Pentagon to coordinate such activities.

The Army, Air Force, and Navy also should be investigating and pursuing fleets of unmanned, interconnected robot technologies, according to the report.

RUSSIA'S VLADIMIR PUTIN IS A KEY PLAYER IN THE APPROACHING NEW WORLD ORDER!

Putin - Key Player In NWO

October 28, 2014 | Tom Olago

It is no secret that Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin, president of Russia since May 2012 and a former KGB boss, is viewed with a lot of mistrust and suspicion by the West. Political stand-offs pitting Putin against the United States and her allies have most recently been exemplified by the divergent positions taken primarily over the Ukraine and Syria, which further appear to have reinforced the long-held view that Putin is a threat to freedoms in the West and the rest of the ‘free world’. 

Many analysts seem to have concluded that Putin stands for a return to the aggressive and bullish hard-core communistic approaches and attitudes that were a core basis for the ‘Cold War’ between the capitalistic United States and the communistic former U.S.S.R.

On the surface, this does indeed seem to be the reality. Nonetheless, strange as it seems, both East and West are actually working towards the same end-goals using largely similar means. Concerns raised largely in the West with regards to the so called “New Cold War” is but a convenient smokescreen – diverting the world’s attention to the fact that Putin and his publicly accepted allies are actually working in tandem with the West towards one major mutual goal. 

That goal happens to be the establishment on a ‘New World Order’: a common euphemized expression for a system of political and economic global governance and control over humanity.

This view may seem somewhat far-fetched to many. However, Alex Newman, in his recent analysis published in TheNewAmerican.com presents observations in support of his controversial conclusions. Says Newman: “… Putin, a former KGB boss, is following precisely the strategies toward world order outlined openly by the same Western establishment he purportedly stands as a bulwark against. He often refers to his vision as the imposition of a new, “multi-polar” world order. But a growing amount of evidence shows that it is exactly the same order sought by globalist Western powerbrokers.”

Key examples of such powerbrokers highlighted by Newman include former Secretary of State Henry Kissinger, ex-National Security Advisor Zbigniew Brzezinski (architect of David Rockefeller’s infamous Trilateral Commission), Rothschild dynasty protégé George Soros,and former general and CIA chief David Petraeus, a member of the globalist-minded Council on Foreign Relations and the Bilderberger group. Even UN boss Ban Ki-moon is said to be inclined toward the globalist agenda.

According to Newman, some key elements of the “New World Order” involve the following objectives and strategies:

• Divide the planet’s people and nations into massive “regions” ruled by supranational institutions — such as the European Union, which is now responsible for the bulk of European laws — virtually free of public control or oversight. 

• A coherent strategy to “establish a concept of order within the various regions and to relate these regional orders to one another”. 

• Progressive regionalization of power towards larger, more stable, more cooperative units while manufacturing and exploiting crises along the way. This should then result in strong regional groupings and better global governance.

• Building of truly global structures to eventually run the emerging “New World Order” as the regional blocs become integrated, suggesting co-ordination to an overall oversight and governing body such as the UN.

• The eventual creation of truly global monetary and financial governance. This would entail diluting and even crushing national sovereignty and ruling over diverse nations by bureaucratic decree via such entities as the European Union.

• Harmonized communities of economies, free trade zones and more sophisticated integration patterns geared towards major sectors such as industry, technology, energy sector, education and science.

• The creation of a stable international reserve currency disconnected from individual nations, thus removing the inherent deficiencies caused by using credit-based national currencies. The IMF “proto-global” currency known as “Special Drawing Rights,” or SDRs, have been touted as a useful starting point for a world currency.

• To develop and enhance the use of international legal courts such as the International Criminal Court (ICC) to centralize legal processes.

• Use of such entities as the Bank for International Settlements (BIS) and Financial Services Board (FSB) for global “financial policing”.

• Global governance under the UN, with everything from terror and “global warming” to “human rights” enforcement being dealt with by the UN.

• Exploitation of competition or even wars between regional super-regimes to dramatically accelerate the quest for global government by bringing about “a sudden transformation in national attitudes sufficient for the purpose”, via a series of sudden, nasty, and traumatic shocks, the aftermath of which would be managed and controlled by the UN.

Putin’s aggression is said to be fuelling counteractive Western integration via the EU, NATO, and the “transatlantic partnership”, but also pursuing a “New World Order” via the regionalization approach. Putin’s initial intention to bring about the “Eurasian Economic Union,” comprising Russia, Belarus, and Kazakhstan, later followed by other former Soviet regimes in the region, particularly members of the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS).

Putin denies that his goal is a rebirth of the USSR, instead writing that: “We suggest a powerful supranational association capable of becoming one of the poles in the modern world and serving as an efficient bridge between Europe and the dynamic Asia-Pacific region. 

Alongside other key players and regional structures, such as the European Union, the United States, China and APEC, the Eurasian Union will help ensure global sustainable development… we believe that a solution might be found in devising common approaches from the bottom up, first within the existing regional institutions, such as the EU, NAFTA, APEC, ASEAN inter alia, before reaching an agreement in a dialogue between them…these are the integration bricks that can be used to build a more sustainable global economy.”

Newman also points out that Putin has been pursuing the “regionalization” approach to the new world order not only in Eurasia but on the other side of the Atlantic, forming a key alliance with US competitor Xi Jinping of communist China, as well as touting multiple integration schemes as partners in his efforts — especially the Community of Latin American and Caribbean States (CELAC), which includes all governments in the Americas except the United States and Canada.

Other “integration formations” that Putin has expressed public interest in include: the Union of South American Nations (UNASUR), the Common Market of the South (Mercosur), the Bolivarian Alliance for the Peoples of Our America (ALBA), the Pacific Alliance, the Central American Integration System (SICA), and the Caribbean Community (CARICOM). The Putin/Jinping partnership also reportedly hopes to rope in the socialist- and communist-minded BRICS regimes — Brazil, Russia,India, China, and South Africa.

Newman concludes: “Finally, Putin’s globalist and establishment credentials hardly preclude the orchestration of a real war between “East” and “West” at some point, particularly if America cannot be induced to surrender its sovereignty to a global regime. Indeed, more than a few analysts have suggested that another World War between the two sides may be in the cards as a way of accelerating the move toward global government”.

Putin’s aggressive expansionist predispositions and belligerent attitudes, coupled with Russia’s rush to nuclear stockpiling, is rapidly setting the stage for just such a scenario. Consider the following recent developments:

• A recent edition of The Washington Times pointed out that for the first time, Russia has more deployed nuclear warheads than the United States, according to the latest numbers released by the State Department. 

• Putin has threatened to retaliate against US strikes in Syria, according to a WND report if her interests are threatened by the strikes.

• EndofTheAmericanDream.com recently reported that Russia has been conducting military tests targeted directly at the United States, as though preparing for an imminent war between the two superpowers – although clearly the advantage sits with Russia, based on known factors.

They say actions speak louder than words. Clearly Putin is ready to do whatever it takes to remain a major player in the “New World Order” and certainly at the expense of the United States of America. The writing is on the wall.

THE PRO-PALESTINIAN ED MILLIBAND IS AGAIN READY TO RUB MORE SALT INTO ISRAEL'S WOUNDS IN MAJOR SPEECH IN LONDON NEXT MONTH!

What Ed Miliband will say to lobbyists will be listened to with great care, not least of by those whom he addressed not five months ago at the Labour Friends of Israel annual lunch.

LONDON – Barely days after Labor Party leader Ed Miliband led two thirds of his party’s MPs through the Commons voting lobbies in support of early recognition of a “Palestinian” state, he appears to be willing to rub more salt in the wounds of the pro-Israel faction in his party.

Eagle eyed observers of the Palestine Solidarity Campaign’s website have been invited to splash out £150-a-head to attend what in effect will be a celebratory dinner for Labor’s pro-Palestinian lobby, with opposition leader Miliband as one of their guest speakers.

He is due to appear along with Manuel Hassassian, who is described as the “Palestinian Ambassador,” though officially in the UK can only be referred to as the Palestinian Representative.

The champagne reception and dinner has been arranged by ‘Labor Friends of Palestine and the Middle East’ for November 26, in Westminster’s Church House, where guests have been invited for “a memorable evening, with great Middle Eastern food, drink and live musical entertainment and the opportunity to raise awareness about Palestine.”

What Miliband will say to lobbyists will be listened to with great care, not least of by those whom he addressed not five months ago at the Labor Friends of Israel annual lunch – where after four years of admitting he had a “complicated relationship” with Israel, he seemed to indicate after his recent visit to the Jewish state, that he now “understood” what being a “true friend of Israel” was all about.

Sadly, his definition, instanced by his stance toward Israel’s self-defense during this summer’s Gaza war and by forcing his party to support the Palestinian recognition vote in the Commons earlier this month, will not be shared by the many Israelis angered and perplexed by the way Labor – which hitherto, had always claimed and demonstrated a close friendship with Israel, had changed policy with neither a reference to the party’s policy making machine, nor the agreement of its shadow cabinet.

Miliband and Shadow Foreign Secretary Douglas Alexander, (who party insiders have indicated was the author of the changed Labor stance on the Palestinian issue) know that by effectively sponsoring the parliamentary recognition motion, they have lost much of the goodwill and potentially the electoral backing of those who reside in the UK, who support not only Israel but also its participation in concluding a negotiated two-state solution.

Israeli politicians too, will begin watching the UK opinion polls to see if Miliband can win next May’s general election. Labor have a small lead over the ruling Conservatives but in recent weeks, Miliband’s personal popularity has reached rock bottom, putting his aim to become the next premier at great risk.

However if a Labor government or Labor-led administration does gain the keys to 10 Downing Street, recognition of a Palestinian state – regardless of the negotiations between Israel and the Palestinians – is likely to be a high priority foreign policy objective.

Miliband has also upset the many within the UK Jewish community who traditionally have been Labor Party supporters, but who may well decide to withhold their votes at the General Election in protest at his line toward Israel’s future.

Seasoned observers say that Alexander – who is leading the Labor Party’s election strategy team – has done the math, noting that he has to make sure his party is attractive to the 3 million Muslims in the UK, a large number of whom reside in marginal, inner city constituencies.

They far outweigh Britain’s roughly 280,000 Jews, only a small number of whom reside in similarly marginal constituencies.

Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas submitted a request Monday for an emergency UN Security Council meeting to discuss the unrest in Jerusalem, the Palestinian Ma’an News Agency reported.

According to the communique, the Palestinian leader is calling for international intervention to stop “Israeli violations” in Jerusalem, and alleged “attacks” by “settlers” at the al-Aqsa Mosque.

Abbas’s spokesman said the PA would ask the UN to prevent further building over the Green Line, amid reports that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu approved 1,000 new units in East Jerusalem Monday.

Earlier Monday, Abbas said news of the planned 1,000 new homes would spur Ramallah to continue its drive for statehood.

“These developments push us to decide and turn to international agencies and the [UN] Security Council as soon as possible,” Abbas said in a statement.

“This announcement amounts to evidence of an intent to further commit crimes defined by and punishable under international law,” Saeb Erekat, a top aide to Abbas and former chief peace negotiator, said in a release from his office.

A source in Netanyahu’s office said Monday morning the prime minister had okayed the planning for some 600 homes in the Ramat Shlomo neighborhood and another 400 in Har Homa. The source also said the state would go ahead with the building of 12 new roads in the West Bank, which would also be used by Palestinians.

The move is likely to cause an “explosion” of violence,” warned senior Palestinian official Jibril Rajoub.

“Such unilateral acts will lead to an explosion,” Rajoub told reporters at a news conference in the West Bank city of Ramallah.

Rajoub, a senior figure within Abbas’s Fatah movement, said it was likely that such a move would only inflame tensions in the eastern sector of the city, which has been swept by almost-daily clashes over the past four months.

It would be a mistake to expect the Palestinians to simply ignore such actions, Rajoub added.

“Mr. Netanyahu should not expect a white flag from the Palestinian people,” he said.

Abbas sent an urgent message to the United States Sunday, asking the administration to stop “Israeli escalations” in East Jerusalem.

According to the official Palestinian news agency WAFA, Abbas emphasized what he described as “incursions by extremist settlers” into the al-Aqsa Mosque on the Temple Mount. He warned that Israeli actions around holy sites would lead to a dangerous and uncontrollable “explosion.”

Netanyahu’s announcement came a day after Israeli politicians warned of a backlash following a report that Netanyahu intended to push through some 2,000 new homes in the West Bank as well as a large package of infrastructure projects, in a deal with settlement leaders and right-wing lawmakers.

On Monday, Palestinian Authority Prime Minister Rami Hamdallah visited the al-Aqsa Mosque. At the shrine — on a hilltop compound, revered by both Jews and Muslims — Hamdallah declared that “there will not be a Palestinian state without East Jerusalem as its capital.”

The Temple Mount has been a source of friction between Israel and the Palestinians in recent months, with Palestinians frequently clashing with police in protests against Jewish visitors to the compound and Israeli politicians calling for Jews to be allowed to pray there.

Netanyahu and Defense Minister Moshe Ya’alon granted Hamdallah and other Palestinian officials permission to travel to the Temple Mount. But Netanyahu alleged on Sunday that rising tensions between Muslim worshipers and Israeli security forces were the fault of “the Palestinian Authority, [President] Mahmoud Abbas, Hamas, and personnel from Islamic organizations.”

Palestinian Authority and Hamas officials have accused Israel of trying to Judaize the site, with Abbas denouncing “incursions by extremist settlers” and joining Hamas in calling for Palestinians to defend it.

The visit by Hamdallah comes as the city continues to experience near-daily protests and incidents of violence in East Jerusalem, including a terror attack last Wednesday in which a Palestinian man plowed his car into a crowd of people near a light rail stop, killing two people, one of whom was a three-month-old girl.
