SAILING INTO HARM’S WAY!
TRUMAN FORCES BATTLE CRY IS: “GIVE EM HELL”!

With ever increasing Middle East military armament on the land, in the air, and across the water surfaces of the eastern Mediterranean Sea, the Red Sea, the Indian Ocean, and the Persian Gulf,
we see the potential for war growing daily across the entire region.
It is a forgone certainty, with only the question of WHEN circling over the planet as a foreboding bird of prey.
Once the “WHEN” war begins it will initiate a three and one half year countdown to the final battle of Armageddon.
Numbers 24:12-14,23,24 – And Balaam said unto Balak, Spake I not also to thy messengers which thou sentest unto me, saying, [13] If Balak would give me his house full of silver and gold, I cannot go beyond the commandment of the Lord, to do either good or bad of mine own mind; but what the Lord saith, that will I spea
k? [14] And now, behold, I go unto my people: come therefore, and I will advertise thee what this people shall do to thy people in the latter days.
[23] And he took up his parable, and said, Alas, who shall live when God doeth this!
[24] And ships shall come from the coast of Chittim, and shall afflict Asshur, and shall afflict Eber, and he also shall perish for ever.
Daniel 11:45 to 12:1 – And he shall plant the tabernacles of his palace between the seas in the glorious holy mountain; yet he shall come to his end, and none
shall help him. [1] And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which standeth for the children of thy people: and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time: and at that time thy people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book.
Matthew 24:21,22 – For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be. [22] And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect’s sake those days shall be shortened.
Revelation 16:16 – And he gathered them together into a place called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon.

Iran Spy Post Heightens Gulf Tension with U.S.
Gethin Chamberlain
Iran has established a sophisticated spying operation at the head of the Arabian Gulf in a move which has significantly heightened tensions in its standoff with the U.S. The operation, masterminded by the Revolutionary Guard, includes
the construction of a high-tech spying post close to the point where Iranian forces kidnapped 15 British naval personnel in March. The U.S. military says that the spying post, build on the foundations of a crane platform sunk during the Iran-Iraq war, is equipped with radar, cameras and forward facing infra-red devices to track the movement of coalition naval forces. Commanders fear that one of the main purposes of the Iranian operation is to enable the Revolutionary Guard to intercept more coalition vessels. (Sunday Telegraph-UK)

DEBKAfile Reports: Two US carrier-strike groups are bound for Persian Gulf region, bringing number back to three
September 10, 2007, 10:52 AM (GMT+02:00)
DEBKAfile’s military sources report that from the third week of July, the only American strike force- carrier in the Persian Gulf-Arabian Sea region was the USS Enterprise. By the end of September, it will be joined by the USS Nimitz and the USS Truman Strike Groups. Our sources note that with their arrival, three American naval, air and marine forces will again confront Iranian shores at a time of crisis in the military and civilian leadership of Iran – signaled by the abrupt change of Revolutionary Guards Corps commanders, rising Israel-Syrian tensions and a troubled situation in Lebanon.
The Nimitz left the region to take part in large-scale Malabar 2007 II exercise with five Asian nations, termed by Indian military observers “ the first step towards establishing Asian NATO.
Since the maneuver ended Friday, Sept.
7, the Nimitz has been on its way back to the Persian Gulf.
The Truman group, made up of 12 warships and submarines, including a nuclear sub, with 7,600 sailors, air crew and marines aboard, has just completed a long series of training exercises and is preparing to set out for its new posting.
It carries eight squadrons of fighters, bombers and spy planes.
The Truman force’s battle cry is: “Give ‘em hell”.
The combined naval strike groups include the Monterey-CG 61 guided missile cruiser, the USS Barry DDG 52 and USS Mason-DDG 87 guided missile destroyers, the USS Albuquerque-SSN 706 fast nuclear strike submarine and the combat logistical USNS Arctic T-AOE 8.
In the last week of August, the USS Kearsarge Expeditionary Strike Group took up position oppo site
the Lebanese coast amid trepidation over the September presidential election. Our military sources reported that aboard the group’s vessels are members of the 22nds Marine special operations-capable Expeditionary Unit, who are ready to execute landings on Lebanese beaches.
