End Times > We know Satan will lose in the End, but until then he's having a field day in the Catholic and Anglican Churches

 

Just days after the Archbishop of Canterbury announced he is stepping down, Pope Francis speaks out against Israel. Justin Welby stepped down for covering up, or ignoring, a prolific paedophile in the Anglican Church, but I have criticized him and called for his resignation earlier for his pro-Islam stance. Now Francis is coming out full-throttle for Islam while condemning Israel and calling them genocidal for defending themselve against genocidal Islamic jihadists. This stance will bring judgment upon him from God, and is another clear indicator that we are in the End Times. If the Great Tribulation didn't start on Oct 7, 2023, it very soon will.


Pope Francis calls for genocide

investigation of Israel




After calling Israel’s wars against Hamas and Hezbollah terror groups ‘immoral,’ the Vatican pontiff is now calling for a probe into the IDF’s conduct, citing accusations ‘by some experts’ that ongoing war has ‘characteristics of genocide.’

Pope Francis has called for an investigation into alleged acts of genocide by IDF forces during the ongoing wars against the Hamas and Hezbollah terrorist groups in the Gaza Strip and Lebanon, according to an upcoming book.

On Sunday, the Italian daily La Stampa published excerpts from HernĂ¡n Reyes Alcaide’s new book, Hope Never Disappoints. Pilgrims Towards a Better World, which is set to be released on Tuesday.

Among the excerpts published Tuesday were quotes attributed to the Vatican pontiff in which he is said to have cited claims by “some experts” accusing Israel of genocide, and backing an investigation of IDF war conduct.

“According to some experts, what is happening in Gaza has the characteristics of a genocide,” Pope Francis is quoted as saying.

“We should investigate carefully to determine whether it fits into the technical definition formulated by jurists and international bodies.”

Pope Francis has already publicly castigated Israel’s war against Hamas and Hezbollah, calling the IDF’s actions “excessive” and “immoral.”

“Defense must always be proportionate to the attack,” the pope told reporters on September 29th.

“When there is something disproportionate, one shows a tendency to dominate which goes beyond what is moral,” he continued.

Even operations which are essentially defensive can be “immoral actions” if they are “excessive,” Pope Francis argued.

Later on Sunday, the Combat Antisemitism Movement slammed Pope Francis’ remarks, comparing it to the historic “Inquisitions.”

“The State of Israel is currently facing a war of intended annihilation on seven fronts, and these remarks look like a possible opening of an eighth front, from of all places, the Vatican, which can also lead to the spilling of Jewish blood around the world,” said CAM CEO Sacha Roytman Dratwa.

“For a Pope who appears to prize even-handedness and peace, we see that the Jewish State once again appears to be the exception.”

“We had hoped after Nostra Aetate in 1965 that the Jewish People would be seen as equal to all others around the world by the Catholic hierarchy, but these claims suggest otherwise, and out of all the conflicts and real genocides around the world, the national homeland of the Jewish people is once again singled out as a target for opprobrium.”

“The Catholic Church has a very troubling history of investigations into the conduct of Jews, which were frequently called Inquisitions,” continued Roytman Dratwa.

“It would behoove Pope Francis to choose his words more carefully because they bring to mind a horrific and bloody history of Catholic religious leaders attacking Jews for the enjoyment of others in public at tribunals and Inquisitions where the Jew would always be found guilty regardless of the facts.”

America frantically trying to block military aid to Israel > Preparation for The End Times

 

I have been writing for years now, and first spoke about it to a men's group in Edmonton in 2008, that the USA will abandon Israel when it is needed most, in order to facilitate the last days prophecies in the Bible. Islam can't fully attack Israel as long as America is standing with it.  We are not there yet, but look at how close we are and how consistent has been the effort.


Biden Outraged Netanyahu Mentioned

His Blocking Aid to Israel

The goal is to abandon Israel and convince liberal American Jews to blame Israel.

Act 1. The stage is set. The key players are Barack Obama, who wants to manufacture a break with Israel, Benjamin Netanyahu, looking to navigate a hostile administration, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, and Vice President Joe Biden.

During Biden’s visit to Israel, the Obama administration stages a scandal, claiming that it was deliberately insulted because the local Jerusalem municipality routed some housing that the administration belatedly opposed through an approvals process.

Hillary Clinton spends an hour (and later brags about) yelling at Netanyahu over the phone. Biden refuses to come down for an hour to an event and a glass trophy being awarded to him ends up being broken. The media plays up a scandal that had been purely invented while spreading the narrative that it was Netanyahu who was creating a crisis.

Act 2. Dramatis Personae. Joe Biden. Benjamin Netanyahu. Barak Ravid, the Axios-employed propagandist acting as a point man for the Biden administration’s influence operation to remove Netanyahu and stop the war on Hamas while preventing any action against Iran.

Here’s how it plays out.

Biden publicly blocks previously approved military aid to Israel. And is slow-walking other aid. Netanyahu mentions this in a video. The Biden administration fumes and cancels a meeting over Iran. Barak Ravid writes all of this up with lots of “anonymous sources” in the administration and the Israeli Left.

Act 2 is even more absurd than Act 1 because Biden was touting his “extreme pressure” on Israel in a recent video.

But when Netanyahu mentions it, it’s a “scandal” and an “insult”.

Cue the media narrative campaign.

Barak Ravid / Axios: Scoop: White House cancels meeting, scolds Netanyahu in protest over video

Barak Ravid / Axios: White House baffled by Netanyahu’s claim Biden is withholding weapons

Baffled!

Barak Ravid / Axios: Scoop: U.S. put a hold on an ammunition shipment to Israel

All of this is a scam. The goal is to abandon Israel and convince liberal American Jews to blame Israel for the breach.

It’s the same Obama playbook being run again.

End Times > Political Alliances setting up for the End Times invasion of Israel

..
The End Times invasion of Israel (Ezekiel 38,39) will occur soon as the USA will find a reason to abandon Israel. Democrats in the USA are becoming more and more antisemitic by the day. Israel is becoming more aggressive in its protection of itself, so, I expect it will attack Syria's nuclear power plants before they have the opportunity to create and test nuclear weapons. Perhaps that will be the excuse for America to abandon its ally and leave them vulnerable.

Meanwhile, Russia has been making agreements with Muslim states, and has the cooperation of several Muslim states both within and without the Federation. 

I have always questioned whether Russia or Turkey would be leading the End Times invasion of Israel. But the way the geopolitics has been setting up in the past couple of years lends credence to Russia being the lead. In any event, it will be Islam against Israel - 10 or 12 countries against tiny Israel, and it will be the end of those countries, not because of Israel's defence, but because God will step in.


Lavrov: ‘Islam in Russia is living through a renaissance'


Middle East Monitor, May 21, 2023:

Russia’s foreign minister Sergey Lavrov has claimed that Islam is experiencing a “renaissance” in Russia on Friday, and also noted that Russian Muslims “stand shoulder to shoulder” with their compatriots and continue to defend the country’s security.

In an interview published on the Ministry of Foreign Affairs website for the documentary film The Road to the Islamic World, Russia’s top diplomat said: “Islam in Russia is living through a renaissance and an unprecedented rise, as it continues to harmoniously coexist with other traditional religions.”

“Our joint work revealed largely overlapping assessments of the inter-civilisational and interreligiousissues [sic] that are being discussed in our country and internationally,” he continued and emphasised that “We stand united in upholding spiritual and moral values, rejecting Islamophobia, Christianophobia or any other forms of religious intolerance.”…

“We are ready for close cooperation with our friends from the Muslim world,” the Russian foreign minister said. “As well as with all other partners who share an interest in strengthening the legal and democratic foundations of international life,” he added…


I have always considered Lavrov to be a relatively intelligent man, but these statements have raised considerable doubt. For instance: "rejecting religious intolerance" would automatically exclude Islam, not include it. Islam is the most intolerant religion in the world. "Strengthening the legal and democratic foundations of international life", would also exclude Islam as Muslims gravitate toward Sharia Law wherever they are the majority, and where they are not, they cause havoc in any real democracy.
