    Folks the Public is at DEFCON 3 (Meaning The U.S. Military is at DEFCON 2)… “NUCLEAR WAR COULD ENSUE AT ANY MOMENT!” REPEAT: ”NUCLEAR WAR COULD ENSUE AT ANY MOMENT!” “I stated in Other Articles Iran has 250 Kiloton Nuclear Weapons… One 250 Kiloton Missile Hitting Saudi Arabia Oil Fields shall Wipe Out Their Oil Production for 50,000 Years (for Radiation to Dissappear).” Iran has already stated, “They (Iran) shall Strike Saudi Oil Fields.” This Action would Instantly Collapse The U.S. Banking System (Based on Petro-Dollar). “This would Force Congress to Declare War to Effect Our Defense Agreements with NATO, Israel, and Other Allies.” “Iranian Planning Knows this and is ‘Forcing this to Happen to Effect’ Their (Iran) Defense Agreements with Russia, China, India, North Korea, and Others.”
    “Armageddon has Arrived!” The only Bomb Shelter Provided for everyday Americans like You and I is, “Salvation by and through Jesus Christ (Messiah Yeshua).” “Take this Moment to go into Your Nuclear Bomb Shelter by Repenting of Your Sins, and Accepting Jesus Christ (Messiah Yeshua) into Your Life.” Also Secure Bottle Water and Can Food Immediately… Water Systems shall be Poisoned By Iranian Sleeper Cells brought in by the Anti Christ Obama. Worse: “Nuclear Explosions shall Disrupt Food Deliveries and Contaminate Water Supplies.”
    “Folks I have tried to Warn You,” which is, “Why I was Banned (5000 limit plus 6 million Group Friends) for Life from Face Book (an arm of the Department of Defense and CIA).” I still state the “Actual Great Tribulation (Wrath of God) starts May 19, 2021.” Why? President Trump (Daniel 9:27) Confirmed The Covenant (The Jerusalem Embassy Act of 1995 giving Jerusalem back to Israel after 2000 years) on December 6, 2017. Hence, “You add 1260 Days to December 6, 2017 takes You to May 19, 2021.” This is when and where Obama the Anti Christ shall come back to Power (Secretary General U.N.) in Kenya (Charged with Treason in U.S.) over the United Nations using the U.N. Facility Built there (Kenya) in 1996. At that Time Obama shall impose under International Law His (Obama) Created (on December 23, 2016) U.N. Resolution 2334 giving Jerusalem back to Muslims. He (Obama) shall use the 10 U.N. Divisions (Revelation 17:10-18) to Attack and Destroy the United States of America and Over-run Israel. Obama as the Anti Christ Over the World shall have Power Exactly 42 months (Revelation 13:5). Then, “The Second Coming of Jesus Christ (Messiah Yeshua) Occurs.” “The Rapture Occurs sometime between Now through May 18, 2021,” because Elaha (God Almighty) stated, “His (Elaha) People do not go through His Wrath,” being, “The Wrath of God,” which is, “The Other Name of The Great Tribulation.”
    “May Our Father (Elaha) and His Son Messiah Yeshua (Jesus Christ) be with All of us through this Time of Trouble.”

    I'm waiting to hear from the White House that Soleimani is giving orders from his coffin to lauch missiles at the Embassy.

    As I an others have posted, It is ALWAYS the Iranians doing the bad things to the USA. Whoever is doing it I hope they completely destroy the Embassy to the desert sand.

    Syria says pro-Iran militias in Damascus are ready to fire rockets? There’s only one target they would aim for: ISRAEL. And the Israelis will strike any way they consider necessary. Looks like it’s game on.

    Peter, that’s right. Trump is NOT in control. The damn neocons/deep state are running the show. The deep state needs to be taken down and destroyed.

    After South Manhattan and the financial district of New York City is nuked and a third party out of Europe brokers a Middle East peace agreement, then U.S. military forces assigned to the Middle East will return home.

    you if the President did withdraw all forces from foreign soil - same countries would cry for them back in short order - and the US should refuse - protect it's own and that's that

    I'm still waiting for our Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces to immediately and unilaterally withdraw all of our military personnel from all foreign soil and all foreign conflicts, and return them back home to the United States.
    I believe that was a campaign promise, wasn't it?
