A PERSON WONDER!
CRAZY Things in Store 2010 to 2015,
We’re headed For Lots Of Great Unrest,
Political, Economic, And Domestic UNREST,
The only question is just how great it will Be,
And precisely when the chaos will reach its Max,
I don’t think Igor’s forecast breakup of U.S. is True,
But I do expect dollar to go haywire twixt 2010-2015!
Panarin’s U.S. breakup to four parts way out in left Field,
But I KNOW God’s II Timothy & Psalm 2 Are Both Very Real,
And I’m convinced before 2015 will both start to be Unsealed!
So it is wise U.S. troops are being trained to quell domestic Riots,
For in the last days things are certain to become lots more Perilous!

II Timothy 3:1 – This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.
II Timothy 3:12,13 – Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution. [13] But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.
Perhaps one of the reasons many of God’s children have not suffered persecution in this country is because they aren’t living godly in Christ Jesus. Perhaps they will suffer for not having done so in what Psalm 2 along with unbelievers. I believe this Psalm is likely to begin to be fulfilled visibly and physically among mankind at some point in time between 2010 and 2015. If you do not kiss the Son before his Second Advent it will be too late to kiss him
when he comes.
Psalm 2:1-12 – Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing? [2] The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the Lord, and against his anointed, saying, [3] Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us. [4] He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh: the Lord shall have them in derision.
[5] Then shall he speak unto them in his wrath, and vex them in his sore displeasure. [6] Yet have I set my king upon my holy hill of Zion. [7] I will declare the decree: the Lord hath said unto me, Thou art my Son; this day have I begotten thee. [8] Ask of me, and I shall give thee the heathen for thine inheritance, and the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession. [9] Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron; thou shalt dash them in pieces like a potter’s vessel. [10] Be wise now therefore, O ye kings: be instructed, ye judges of the earth. [11] Serve the Lord with fear, and rejoice with trembling. [12] Kiss the Son, lest he be angry, and ye perish from the way, when his wrath is kindled but a little. Blessed are all they that put their trust in him.
In oriental customs, to kiss the Son of the Father (Patriarch) was to honor both the Father and the Son.
John 5:39-41 – Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me.
[40] And ye will not come to me, that ye might have life. [41] I receive not honour from men.
John 5:21-24 – For as the Father raiseth up the dead, and quickeneth them; even so the Son quickeneth whom he will. [22] For the Father judgeth no man, but hath committed all judgment unto the Son: [23] That all men should honour the Son, even as they honour the Father. He that honoureth not the Son honoureth not the Father which hath sent him. [24] Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.
I urge you to heed God’s gracious warning – Whatever you are going to do with, about, or for Jesus, DO IT NOW!
Luke 21:33-35 – Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away. [34] And take heed to yourselves, lest at any time your hearts be overcharged with surfeiting, and drunkenness, and cares of this life, and so that day come upon you unawares. [35] For as a snare shall it come on all them that dwell on the face of the whole earth.
Romans 10:17 – So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
Romans 10:13 – For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.
Acts 2:20,21 – The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before that great and notable day of the Lord come: [21] And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved.

As if Things Weren’t Bad Enough, Russian Professor Predicts End of U.S.
In Moscow, Igor Panarin’s Forecasts Are All the Rage;
America ‘Disintegrates’ in 2010
By ANDREW OSBORN
MOSCOW — For a decade, Russian academic Igor Panarin has been predicting the U.S. will fall apart in 2010. For most of that time, he admits, few took his argument — that an economic and moral collapse will trigger a civil war and the eventual breakup of the U.S. — very seriously. Now he’s found an eager audience: Russian state media.
Igor Panarin
In recent weeks, he’s been interviewed as much as twice a day about his predictions. “It’s a record,” says Prof. Panarin. “But I think the attention is going to grow even stronger.”
Prof. Panarin, 50 years old, is not a fringe figure. A former KGB analyst, he is dean of the Russian Foreign Ministry’s academy for future diplomats. He is invited to Kremlin receptions, lectures students, publishes books, and appears in the media as an expert on U.S.-Russia relations.
But it’s his bleak forecast for the U.S. that is music to the ears of the Kremlin, which in recent years has blamed Washington for everything from instability in the Middle East to the global financial crisis. Mr. Panarin’s views also fit neatly with the Kremlin’s narrative that Russia is returning to its rightful place on the world stage after the weakness of the 1990s, when many feared that the country would go economically and politically bankrupt and break into separate territories.
A polite and cheerful man with a buzz cut, Mr. Panarin insists he does not dislike Americans. But he warns that the outlook for them is dire.
“There’s a 55-45% chance right now that disintegration will occur,” he says. “One could rejoice in that process,” he adds, poker-faced. “But if we’re talking reasonably, it’s not the best scenario — for Russia.” Though Russia would become more powerful on the global stage, he says, its economy would suffer because it currently depends heavily on the dollar and on trade with the U.S.
Mr. Panarin posits, in brief, that mass immigration, economic decline, and moral degradation will trigger a civil war next fall and the collapse of the dollar. Around the end of June 2010, or early July, he says, the U.S. will break into six pieces — with Alaska reverting to Russian control.
In addition to increasing coverage in state media, which are tightly controlled by the Kremlin, Mr. Panarin’s ideas are now being widely discussed among local experts. He presented his theory at a recent roundtable discussion at the Foreign Ministry. The country’s top international relations school h as hosted him
as a keynote speaker. During an appearance on the state TV channel Rossiya, the station cut between his comments and TV footage of lines at soup kitchens and crowds of homeless people in the U.S. The professor has also been featured on the Kremlin’s English-language propaganda channel, Russia Today.
Mr. Panarin’s apocalyptic vision “reflects a very pronounced degree of anti-Americanism in Russia today,” says Vladimir Pozner, a prominent TV journalist in Russia. “It’s much stronger than it was in the Soviet Union.”
Mr. Pozner and other Russian commentators and experts on the U.S. dismiss Mr. Panarin’s predictions. “Crazy ideas are not usually discussed by serious people,” says Sergei Rogov, director of the government-run Institute for U.S. and Canadian Studies, who thinks Mr. Panarin’s theories don’t hold water.
Mr. Panarin’s résumé includes many years in the Soviet KGB, an experience shared by other top Russian officials. His office, in downtown Moscow, shows his national pride, with pennants on the wall bearing the emblem of the FSB, the KGB’s successor agency. It is also full of statuettes of eagles; a double-headed eagle was the symbol of czarist Russia.
The professor says he began his career in the KGB in 1976. In post-Soviet Russia, he got a doctorate in political science, studied U.S. economics, and worked for FAPSI, then the Russian equivalent of the U.S. National Security Agency.
He says he did strategy forecasts for then-President Boris Yeltsin, adding that the details are “classified.”
In September 1998, he attended a conference in Linz, Austria, devoted to information warfare, the use of data to get an edge over a rival. It was there, in front of 400 fellow delegates, that he first presented his theory about the collapse of the U.S. in 2010.
“When I pushed the button on my computer and the map of the United States disintegrated, hundreds of people cried out in surprise,” he remembers. He says most in the audience were skeptical. “They didn’t believe me.”
At the end of the presentation, he says many delegates asked him to autograph copies of the map showing a dismembered U.S.
He based the forecast on classified data supplied to him by FAPSI analysts, he says. He predicts that economic, financial and demographic trends will provoke a political and social crisis in the U.S. When the going gets tough, he says, wealthier states will withhold funds from the federal government and effectively secede from the union. Social unrest up to and including a civil war will follow. The U.S. will then split along ethnic lines, and foreign powers will move in.
California will form the nucleus of what he calls “The Californian Republic,” and will be part of China or under Chinese influence. Texas will be the heart of “The Texas Republic,” a cluster of states that will go to Mexico or fall under Mexican influence. Washington, D.C., and New York will be part of an “Atlantic America” that may join the European Union. Canada will grab a group of Northern states Pr
of. Panarin calls “The Central North American Republic.” Hawaii, he suggests, will be a protectorate of Japan or China, and Alaska will be subsumed into Russia.
“It would be reasonable for Russia to lay claim to Alaska; it was part of the Russian Empire for a long time.” A framed satellite image of the Bering Strait that separates Alaska from Russia like a thread hangs from his office wall. “It’s not there for no reason,” he says with a sly grin.
Interest in his forecast revived this fall when he published an article in Izvestia, one of Russia’s biggest national dailies.
In it, he reiterated his theory, called U.S. foreign debt “a pyramid scheme,” and predicted China and Russia would usurp Washington’s role as a global financial regulator.
Americans hope President-elect Barack Obama “can work miracles,” he wrote. “But when spring comes, it will be clear that there are no miracles.”
The article prompted a question about the White House’s reaction to Prof. Panarin’s forecast at a December news conference. “I’ll have to decline to comment,” spokeswoman Dana Perino said amid much laughter.
For Prof. Panarin, Ms. Perino’s response was significant. “The way the answer was phrased was an indication that my views are being listened to very carefully,” he says.
The professor says he’s convinced that people are taking his theory more seriously. People like him have forecast similar cataclysms before, he says, and been right.
He cites French political scientist Emmanuel Todd. Mr. Todd is famous for having rightly forecast the demise of the Soviet Union — 15 years beforehand. “When he forecast the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1976, people laughed at him,” says Prof. Panarin.

Ashkenazi: ‘Difficult times’ await us
December 30, 2008
Yaacov Katz and JPost.com staff , THE JERUSALEM POST
“Difficult times are awaiting us; I am sure we will overcome them as well,” IDF Chief of General Staff Lt.-Gen. Gabi Ashkenazi said on the fourth day of Operation Cast Lead.
Speaking at a joint press conference Tuesday afternoon with President Shimon Peres, Ashkenazi praised the IDF and security forces participating in Operation Cast Lead, which he said was aimed at “creating a better reality for the residents of southern Israel.”
He also thanked the general Israeli public for supporting the operation, and expressed his appreciation of Israel’s southern residents, who are “living under constant threat” and providing important support to the operation, “which extends our endurance.”
Ashkenazi said he was “very pleased with the operation at this point.”
Earlier Tuesday afternoon during a tour of Ashkelon, Defense Minister Ehud Barak said that military action against Hamas would continue until all the goals are met.
Barak said that the operation would intensify “as much as needed to meet the goals we set for ourselves; to bring quiet to the South.”
The operation also aims “to strike a severe blow to Hamas,” he said, “in order to bring about an end to firing and other operations against Israeli civilians and IDF soldiers.”
“We expect more difficult days ahead which will test civilians’ endurance,” he continued.
On Tuesday morning, Prime Minister Ehud Olmert met President Shimon Peres at the President’s Residence in Jerusalem and updated him on recent developments.
The prime minister said that the military action in Gaza over the past few days was the “first stage out of a series of measures that the cabinet has approved.”
Peres emphasized that Israel was not fighting against the Palestinian population but rather against a terror group that had “raised the banner of violence and undermined stability in the region.”
“There is no one in the world that understands why Hamas is continuing to fire rockets at Israel,” he continued. “The firing defies reason and logic, and it doesn’t stand a chance.”
The two met as Israel let some 100 trucks carrying humanitarian supplies from Jordan, Turkey and international aid groups into the Gaza Strip via the Kerem Shalom border crossing.
In addition, five new ambulances given by Turkey were allowed into the Strip.
Overnight Monday, Olmert instructed the IDF to press ahead with the Gaza operation and not to set a time limit for its goals.
Following consultations at his home with IDF Chief of General Staff Lt.-Gen. Gabi Ashkenazi and other heads of the security establishment, Olmert stressed that Israel would strike Hamas with an “iron fist” but would treat Gaza civilians with “kid gloves” in its humanitarian effort.
During the meeting, security officials said that the IDF had given telephone warnings to some 90,000 Gazans living near Hamas facilities targeted by the IAF. They stressed that the sites were only bombed after civilians had left their homes.
Shin Bet (Israel Security Agency) head Yuval Diskin said that Hamas leaders, including its prime minister, Ismail Haniyeh, had gone into hiding, much to the chagrin of Gaza residents. He also said there was a degree of satisfaction among Gaza civilians over the IDF operation against the terror group.
It was further stated that there was no extreme international pressure on Israel, and that world leaders had appreciated the restraint in the lead-up to the operation and were now demonstrating understanding for the military action.
The officials said that Hamas had already started pressing countries and international organizations in a bid for a cease-fire.

Israeli leaders to discuss suspending Gaza op for 48 hours
December 30, 2008
Yaakov Katz, AP and jpost.com staff , THE JERUSALEM POST
Officials in the defense establishment have recommended to Prime Minister Ehud Olmert to suspend military operations against Hamas in Gaza for 48 hours and during that time to review a number of possible ceasefire solutions for Operation Cast Lead.
Senior Israeli ministers were reportedly set to discuss the proposal Tuesday night.
According to reports, if the unilateral ceasefire were to fail, Israel would launch a ground offensive.
Olmert reportedly opposed suspending the operation while Defense Minister Ehud Barak was weighing the idea.
The recommendation, disclosed by defense sources on Tuesday evening, came after Barak spoke with French Foreign Minister Bernard Kouchner earlier in the day.
The IDF issued a statement that it was not recommending a ceasefire.
The defense establishment is suggesting that Israel use the suspension of operations to carefully study Hamas’s intentions; whether the group was planning to escalate the violence by renewing attacks inside the country or whether it would opt to stop its rocket attacks against the South altogether.
It was possible that Operation Cast Lead, the massive bombardment of Hamas targets in the Gaza Strip launched Saturday, had already made clear to Hamas that the “rules of the game” had changed and that Israel will no longer tolerate rocket fire against its civilians, the unnamed defense establishment officials said.
France, which suggested the temporary suspension of operations, was the first non-Arab country to call for Israel to halt the operation, its president calling using Israel’s use of force “disproportionate.”
According to security officials, French Foreign Minister Bernard Kouchner called Barak on Monday asks for a 48 hour “humanitarian suspension” of Operation Cast Lead against Hamas in Gaza, which has killed over 300 Palestinians, mostly uniformed terrorists, so far.
Barak turned down Kouchner’s suggestion, saying there was no need for a humanitarian pause because the Kerem Shalom crossing into Gaza was open
for several hours every day.
On Tuesday Kouchner called again and reiterated his proposal, but this time Barak said he would check with the ‘triumvirate’ – the limited security forum comprised of Olmert, Foreign Minister Tzipi Livni and Barak himself.
On Tuesday, Barak had good reason to reconsider Kouchner’s suggestion: Defense officials expressed skepticism that Hamas – a terror group that thrives on violence – would use the window of opportunity offered by Israel to recuperate after four days of punishing air strikes. Continued Hamas rocket attacks would then give Israel legitimacy for the second stage of the operation, which could include ground troops entering the Gaza Strip.
Furthermore, by agreeing to 48 hours of unilateral ceasefire, Israel would leave Hamas on edge as to when exactly it would launch the second phase of Operation Cast Lead.
Also, inclement weather is predicted for Wednesday and Thursday – not optimal conditions for either ground or air assaults.
Despite the IDF disclaimer earlier Tuesday there were different opinions within the security establishment, the officials said.
A Hamas spokesman said Tuesday evening that the Islamist terror group is conditioning a cease-fire on an opening of Gaza’s borders.
The spokesman, Mushir Masri, spoke after news broke of the Israeli defense officials’ recommendation.
Masri said an end to the fighting was not enough. He said that if Israel halted “the aggression and the blockade, then Hamas will study these suggestions.”
