I was born the year that Herbert Hoover was the President and Franklin Roosevelt was the President Elect. In the United States, car sales had fallen to one-fifth of their 1929 levels, a new one cost 610 dollars, and gasoline was 10 cents a gallon. Dad was a laid off engineer and could not find work, so they lived on what Mom made working in Augusta in Spiegal’s ten cent store. America was so tied up in its own problems they had little time to be concerned about what was happening in the rest of the world and they absolutely did not want to have a world war to go along with the depression. So the United States simply laid back to watch German Nazism and Japanese Imperialism take Europe, Africa, the Middle East, and the Far East from 1932 to 1941. It was not until we were attacked in December of 1941 that we began to fight their attempt to take over the world, and by 1941 we were surrounded by their tentacles, which had extended into our hemisphere not only to surround us, but also to manifest its ideology among us. The same scenario is setting up at the present time, but this time it is Islamic fanaticism and terrorist tentacles, with the two big sugar daddies, Russia and China, backing their play.
Religions Islamic fanaticism is trying to make the world one in which only their god Allah is worshipped, and once again we want to lay back to avoid war while we try to solve our own domestic problems. I am not writing this believing it will have any effect whatsoever on stopping what America is doing. I am absolutely positive it will not. I am writing this in the hope some of those who have not trusted Christ to save them might be influenced to do so by his Spirit before He returns, and also that some who have been saved will realize His Second Advent is not a far distant event, such that they begin to draw closer to him in service before he arrives. America in the next few years is going to be surrounded by an ideology as bad, or even worse, than the thirties and forties terrors of Nazism and Imperialism. Whatever you intend to do with, about, or for Jesus, you had better get at it. I look forward to the return of Christ when there will be no Islamic faith manifested in Jerusalem in the house
of the Lord on the Temple Mount.
Ham, the second son of Noah, is specifically identified as the fa
ther of Canaan for a definite reason in two places in the biblical narrative in Genesis 9:18-27.
The curse on Canaan and his descendants for an act performed on his grandfather Noah, when Noah was taken advantage of while he was intoxicated and made naked, will be completed during the thousand year reign of Christ, when Israel will be the leading nation on this earth. The descendants of Canaan will be the servants
of the children of Israel. The word “ben” is used for son, grandson, great-grandson, etc. in biblical Hebrew. Ham was not the youngest “ben” of Noah, but Canaan, Ham’s son was, and the curse was not placed on Ham for accidentally seeing Noah naked, but rather on Noah’s youngest grandson Canaan for what he did to him while Noah was drunk and naked. The other descendants of Ham and the descendants of Japheth, AS WELL AS THOSE WHO DO NOT POSSESS THE TRAITS OF CANAAN, will worship in the Temple of the Lord in Jerusalem with the descendents of Shem, but those WHO POSSESS THE TRAITS of Canaan will not be allowed to do so.
Genesis 9:18-27 – And the sons of Noah, that went forth of the ark, were Shem, and Ham, and Japheth: and Ham is the father of Canaan. [19] These are the three sons of Noah: and of them was the whole earth overspread. [20] And Noah began to be an husbandman, and he planted a vineyard: [21] And he drank of the wine, and was drunken; and he was uncovered within his tent. [22] And Ham, the father of Canaan, saw the nakedness of his father, and told his two brethren without. [23] And Shem and Japheth took a garment, and laid it upon both their shoulders, and went backward, and covered the nakedness of their father; and their faces were backward, and they saw not their father’s nakedness. [24] And Noah awoke from his wine, AND KNEW WHAT HIS YOUNGER SON (ben) HAD DONE UNTO HIM. [25] And he said, Cursed be Canaan; a servant of servants shall he be unto his brethren. [26] And he said, Blessed be the Lord God of Shem; and Canaan shall be his servant. [27] God shall enlarge Japheth, and he shall dwell in the tents of Shem; and Canaan shall be his servant.
Later, when the law was given to Moses, the penalty for Canaan’s offense was issued to Israel.
Leviticus 20:13 – If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.
Zechariah 14:16 – And it shall come to pass, that every one that is left of all the nations which came against Jerusalem shall even go up from year to year to worship the King, the Lord of hosts, and to keep the feast of tabernacles.
Zechariah 14:20,21 – In that day shall there be upon the bells of the horses, HOLINESS UNTO THE LORD; and the pots in the Lord’s house shall be like the bowls before the altar. [21] Yea, every pot in Jerusalem and in Judah shall be holiness unto the Lord of hosts: and all they that sacrifice shall come and take of them, and seethe therein: AND IN THAT DAY THERE SHALL BE NO MORE THE CANAANITE IN THE HOUSE OF THE LORD OF HOSTS.
Ezekiel 37:21-28 – And say unto them, Thus saith the Lord God; Behold, I will take the children of Israel from among the heathen, whither they be gone, and will gather them on every side, and bring them into their own land: [22] And I will make them one nation in the land upon the mountains of Israel; and one king shall be king to them all: and they shall be no more two nations, neither shall they be divided into two kingdoms any more at all: [23] Neither shall they defile themselves any more with their idols, nor with their detestable things, nor with any of their transgressions: but I will save them out of all their dwellingplaces, wherein they have sinned, and will cleanse them: so shall they be my people, and I will be their God.
[24] And David my servant shall be king over them; and they all shall have one shepherd: they shall also walk in my judgments, and observe my statutes, and do them. [25] And they shall dwell in the land that I have given unto Jacob my servant, wherein your fathers have dwelt; and they shall dwell therein, even they, and their children, and their children’s children for ever: and my servant David shall be their prince for ever. [26] Moreover I will make a covenant of peace with them; it shall be an everlasting covenant with them: and I will place them, and multiply them, and will set my sanctuary in the midst of them for evermore. [27] My tabernacle also shall be with them: yea, I will be their God, and they shall be my people. [28] And the heathen shall know that I the Lord do sanctify Israel, WHEN MY SANCTUARY SHALL BE IN THE MIDST OF THEM FOR EVERMORE.

Russian warships in Cuban visit
December 15, 2008
A group of Russian warships is to visit Cuba for the first time since the Soviet era, the Russian navy has said.
The visit, scheduled for 19-22 December, will be led by the destroyer Admiral Chabanenko.
Recently the ship took part in joint maneuvres with Venezuela and became the first Russian vessel to navigate the Panama Canal since World War II.
The naval activities are being seen as an attempt by Moscow to streng then its influence in
the region.
Cuba’s revolutionary leadership was closely allied to the Soviet Union (USSR) during the Cold War, but relations have weakened since the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991.
There have recently been attempts to revive ties.
Russia was the first country to send humanitarian aid to Cuba after two major hurricanes this year, and the two countries signed major trade deals in November.

New Iranian Danger: Is Iran Setting Up Bases around the World?
By Lenny Ben David, Director
December 10, 2008
Anyone who has played the strategic board game Risk can envision the world’s choke points and key strategic crossroads.
Today, upon analysis of Iranian activities and ties, it’s not difficult to imagine Iran’s green armies setting up bases around the world. The goals: to challenge American military forces across the globe and to position forces which can threaten Western shipping and commercial interests.
Iran’s involvement in the terror and turmoil of Iraq has been well documented. Iran also threatens the petroleum lifeline through the Persian (Arabian) Gulf. Forty percent of the world’s petroleum sails past Iran’s batteries of anti-ship missiles and through the Straits of Hormuz — the jagged choke point on the northeast corner of the Arabian Peninsula. Armed Iranian fast boats have repeatedly challenged U.S. Navy ships in the area.
A pipeline under construction through the United Arab Emirates to the south should eventually cut the dependence on the Straits.
But a new — and unconfirmed — report now places Iranian troops and missiles near the Horn of Africa at another choke point, the Bab el-Mandeb, on the Arabian Peninsula’s southern tip. According to The Cutting Edge, “Iranian ships and submarines have deployed an undisclosed number of Iranian troops and weapons at the Eritrean port town of Assab, according to opposition groups, foreign diplomats, and NGOs in the area.”
MEMRI reports, “Eritrean opposition websites reported that Eritrea has granted Iran total control of the Red Sea port of Assab, which overlooks the Bab el-Mandeb straits.
”
All ships going through the Suez Canal sail through the Red Sea and pass through the Bab el-Mandeb, including oil tankers and military vessels. Shipping to Israel’s Eilat port and to Jordan’s Aqaba port goes through the straits. Israel’s Ashkelon-Eilat pipeline — pumping Azeri oil eastward to the far east or westward from the Persian Gulf to Europe — relies on oil tankers that sail past Assab.
From the Eastern Med to West Africa and South America
Iran’s potent proxy, Hizbullah, has firmly established itself politically and militarily in Lebanon. Israel’s Defense Forces must take into account Syrian and Hizbullah (actually Iranian-led) forces to its north. Hizbullah’s tens of thousands of rockets and anti-shipping missiles have transformed large segments of Lebanon into Iranian military bases on the eastern shores of the Mediterranean. For many years Lebanon’s Bekaa Valley was the center for poppy cultivation and a massive international drug operation. Today, the Lebanese government has no authority in the Bekaa, and Hizbullah bases there are used by Iranian Revolutionary Guards to train terrorists from all over the world.
Iran and Hizbullah are pushing hard into western Africa. “West African countries have a large Arab community, and many of them are Shi’ite immigrants from Lebanon – who constitute the Hizbullah infrastructure in the region,” a senior official at the Israeli Foreign Ministry told The Jerusalem Post this summer.
Matthew Levitt, the director of The Washington Institute’s Program on Counterterrorism and Intelligence, has investigated the Hizbullah money trail. He reported, “A 2003 charter flight from Cotonou, Benin, in West Africa to Beirut, crashed on takeoff, killing all the passengers. On board were senior Hizbullah members, carrying $2 million in contributions to the organization from across the region. Arab press reports said the money represented the ‘regular contributions the party receives from wealthy Lebanese nationals in Guinea, Sierra Leone, Liberia, Benin and other African states.’ A senior Hizbullah official was immediately dispatched to Benin to console the ‘sons of the Lebanese community.’”
Competing Saudi, Pakistani and Iranian activists are all trying to win the souls and minds of Nigeria. In 2005 Iranian defense officials toured Nigerian bases and pledged military cooperation. Hizbullah training bases have also sprouted in Nigeria. (See picture from one Nigerian camp. Trainees are holding pictures of Hizbullah’s Nasrallah and Hamas’ Sheikh Yassin.)
In recent months the Nigerian-Iranian cooperation has also focused on the petroleum and nuclear energy fields. Iran and Nigeria, both major oil producers, have been hit hard by the precipitous drop of the price of oil. The two countries plan to join with Hugo Chavez’ Venezuela to push OPEC to cut oil production in order to push oil prices skyward.
In August 2008, Iran offered Nigeria assistance in developing nuclear technology to increase its generation of electricity.
In east Africa, Iranian cooperation with Sudan serves to put pressure on Egypt, Sudan’s neighbor to its north, as well as provides additional threats to Red Sea shipping. Leaders of the two pariah states have met often, with Iran providing weapons to Sudan despite a United Nations ban on weapons sales.
The Caribbean Threat
Iran’s cooperation with Venezuela’s Chavez goes far beyond the two countries’ shared petroleum problems. Chavez, a very frequent visitor to Tehran, has helped Iran develop relations with Bolivia, Nicaragua and Ecuador.
Hizbullah activity in Venezuela guarantees Iran a Latin American ally. Officials from the Center for Security Policy testified earlier this year before the House Foreign Affairs Committee, “Since 2003, there have been reports on the presence of Islamic terrorist groups in [Venezuela’s] Margarita Island. The U.S. Southern Command stated that Isla Margarita is one of the most important centers of terrorist gathering and money laundering activities for Hamas and Hizbullah. The Chavez regime is giving out Venezuelan passports to foreigners from countries such as Iran, Syria, Pakistan, Egypt and Lebanon.”
Chavez’ chief liaison with Hizbullah appears to be Tarek El Aissami, Venezuela’s Minister of Interior and Justice (pictured). The son of a Ba’ath Party official and great nephew of one of Saddam Hussein’s associates, El Aissami was behind the passport production, according to the Miami Herald, as well as illegal raids on Jewish institutions in Venezuela.
The Iranian investment in Venezuela is estimated to be more than $2 billion. For Iran’s Ahmadinejad it’s a solid investment in undermining American interests in America’s own backyard.
Iran and Hizbullah can also count on the lawless “TBA” — the tri-border area where Argentina, Brazil and Paraguay meet — for logistical support. The bombers who blew up the Israeli Embassy in Buenos Aires in 1992 and the Argentinian Jewish Association Building in 1994 are believed to have come out of the TBA under Iranian direction.
Senior Iranian diplomats and officials, including former president Rafsanjani, have been formally charged by Argentinian prosecutors for ordering the bombings.
U.S. Southern Commander, Admiral James Stavridis, told a House Armed Services Committee hearing in March 2008 that while the emergence of Islamic radical terrorist groups is a “less immediate force in the region … it has the potential to become of greater concern to us.
At the moment, I would say, at an unclassified level, [their efforts are] largely centered in proselytizing, recruiting, money laundering. It is hooked somewhat into the narcotics trade and, above all, it is a means of generation of revenue, largely for the Hizbullah Islamic radical organization. Monies are garnered here in Latin America and go back to Hizbullah,” said Stavridis.
The admiral also said the Southern Command is “concerned about linkage between the Iranian state and nascent Islamic radical terrorism in this region.”
And Don’t Forget Russia
Iran’s challenge to the United States parallels Russia’s efforts to “reinforce multipolarity in the world,” explained recently in Le Monde as a policy to “sustain and develop poles of resistance to U.S. hegemony and unilateralism.” Russia recently announced the reestablishment of a Russian naval base in Tarsus, Syria. Russian and Venezuelan ships conducted military exercises in the Caribbean last week, and a Russian destroyer, the Admiral Chabanenko, traversed the Panama Canal over the weekend – the first time a Russian warship crossed the canal since World War II. Approximately two-thirds of American oil imports travel along four sea routes through the Caribbean to Gulf Coast ports.
