The leader of the radical Salafist movement in Jordan, whose organization actively supports the Syrian rebels' efforts to topple President Bashar Assad's regime warned Sunday that once the Damascus opposition achieves its primary goal, it will set its sights on Israel.
"We tell Benjamin Netanyahu, the (Israeli) prime minister, get ready. The army of the Prophet Mohammad is coming your way."
Shihadeh added: "Those carrying explosives in Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan and Pakistan will find you, Allah willing," he added. "The next fight is between us and you."
The jihadist leader further pledged to "Take over Damascus and then head to Tel Aviv… As far as we are concerned, Palestine stretches from river to sea, from Rafah to a-Nakura. We will not rest until Palestine is liberated."
A huge explosion, apparently at a Hizbullah weapons depot, rocked Lebanon near the border Monday morning, the country’s state news agency reported.
Hizbullah immediately accused Israel of carrying to an aerial bombing.
The United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL) is responsible for maintaining security in the area, and it is investigating the blast, but Hizbullah cordoned off the area.

Similar explosions have occurred in the same area in the past two years. Hizbullah has denied that it stores weapons and ammunition in southern Lebanon, but Israelestimates that the terrorist organization not only stockpiles ammunition and guns but also has built up an arsenal of more than 60,000 missiles.
Hizbullah effectively controls southern Lebanon despite a ceasefire agreement that concluded the Second Lebanon War six years ago.

Below we see some more headlines which reveal the rapid movement towards the Tribulation:
Below we see the intro and the conclusion:
The problem with some elite promotions – designed to frighten people into giving up wealth and power to specially prepared globalist solutions – is that they are hard to translate into action. Global warming is a good example of such a meme.
There likely isn't any global warming, or not comprehensively. Thus, the elite that want to promote the theme of global warming (now suddenly called climate change) are faced with the overwhelming challenge of creating something out of nothing.
This leads to bad science and cognitive dissonance where facts have to be made up to fit the plot. And in this era of Internet Information, making up statistics to support a pre-fabricated promotion is a risky business.
The global warming theme blew up several years ago when emails were posted online that revealed what we have suggested ... that by planting only a handful of individuals at strategic choke points affecting world affairs, the top elites can effectively control the larger conversation and influence events as they choose.
Unlike such ambitious promotions as global warming, economic affairs are more easily influenced, as the current economy is not just man-made but created in an unstable way.
The power elite have created a seamless network of something like 150 central banks around the world that pump out fiat money in excess of what economies need. When times are going well, central banks print to fuel the boom. When times are bad, central banks print to ameliorate the bust. But central banks almost always print.
Conclusion: It will seem eminently logical ... cause and effect. But it will not be. It can be argued that it will be the further takedown of the world economy by a ruthless elite that is pursuing world government and control via any means necessary.
The stampeding of gun control through crisis will become a tsunami from the Left. First, they will want to ban semi-automatic rifles, then semi-automatic handguns, then all handguns, then all guns. They’ll try and do it through an Executive Order if they can get away with it. They’ll come for the ammo and tax everything to do with the Second Amendment as high as they can. They are going to have one hell of a fight on their hands. American’s won’t willingly roll over and give up their Constitutional rights, no matter what the crisis. Doing so would only enable and strengthen evil doers and Progressives.
But, in the interest of sanity, let me say that it doesn’t have to be that way. You don’t deal with evil by rolling up in a ball and sucking your thumb and wetting yourself. You don’t banish murder by swaddling the culture in bubble wrap. Making society an even softer target is not the answer. The bad guys and the crazies already demonstrate their preference for soft targets: malls, theaters, schools and so forth. Instead, let us make ourselves, our schools, our malls and other public places into hard targets. Let the citizens and public servants alike see to their own defense. How does a school shooting play out when the would-be murderer is met with ballistic countermeasures?
Until we find a way to improve our culture so that it doesn’t manufacture monsters, we must all be able to meet evil head on when it shows up. I don’t want another teacher to die trying to shield her students; I want the murderer neutralized on the spot and that requires the tools of self defense.
Remember, the Clackamus Mall shooter killed himself when confronted by a CCW holder. Shall we allow ourselves to stampede into the legislative box canyon of victim disarmament? Or shall we instead square our shoulders, accept that evil must be fought and gird ourselves to that end?
Of course we know now that the murderer was denied an opportunity to buy a gun and ended up stealing the guns used in his horrific shooting, but don't let any facts stand in the way:
Democratic senators flung open the door Sunday for a renewed debate on national gun laws, vowing in the aftermath of the deadly Connecticut school shootings to immediately introduce gun-ban legislation and take the issue to the chamber floor.
California Sen. Dianne Feinstein said she will introduce a bill on the first day Congress returns in January to ban the sale of so-called “assault weapons” and high-capacity ammunition clips.
“I’m going to introduce it in the Senate, and the same bill will be introduced in the House,” Feinstein said on NBC’s “Meet the Press.”
Feinstein, a major supporter of a 10-year ban on assault weapons that expired in 2004, said her renewed effort is to get “weapons of war off the streets.”
She was joined Sunday by Sens. Dick Durbin, Illinois, and Richard Blumenthal, Connecticut, who vowed to bring the issue to Capitol Hill in the coming weeks.
The God Complex
So how does this relate to the Progressive/Socialist/Communist movement? (I’ll just call these people “liberals” from here on out.) I figured it out when I read a book called, “The God that Failed.” The book was published in 1949. I’ll let the publisher explain what the book
is about:
The God That Failed is a classic work and crucial document of the Cold War that brings together essays by six of the most important writers of the twentieth century on their conversion to and subsequent disillusionment with communism… André Gide (France), Richard Wright (the United States), Ignazio Silone (Italy), Stephen Spender (England), Arthur Koestler (Germany), and Louis Fischer, an American foreign correspondent, all tell how their search for the betterment of humanity led them to communism, and the personal agony and revulsion which then caused them to reject it.Essentially this book was a mea culpa from these intellectuals, who were trying to explain to those who held them in high regard how they could have been so easily duped by this evil political philosophy.
What was apparent throughout this book was this: once these intellectuals decided that they were too smart to believe in God, there was an emptiness in their souls that they were desperate to fill. Communism promised to fill that emptiness. The State, being all-powerful, could make everything right. Communism promised egalitarianism (everybody would be truly equal). There would be no rich and no poor, no homeless, nobody without a job or food or any of the basic necessities of life. The oceans would recede and the planet would begin to heal. (That last part actually came much later, thanks to the current communist-in-chief.) And it would all be accomplished thanks to an all-powerful, all-knowing, all-seeing State.
Unfortunately, what these men actually found when they travelled to Russia and other communist countries and saw this political philosophy in action turned their stomachs. As the non-liberals among us know, socialism and communism are and always will be utter failures. As Winston Churchill said, “Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery.” An all-powerful government never can fix the ills of the world. Governments are composed of humans and humans are imperfect; therefore all governments are imperfect. Making a government more powerful simply makes it more imperfect.
Everywhere a communist government has been tried, it has failed—and at great painto the citizens of that country. Liberals in academia and the media today often point to Chinese communism as an exception to this rule, but Chinese communism has only survived to the degree that the government has adopted capitalist policies, allowing their people a modicum of freedom—the freedom to be unequal.
How? It all goes back to God. People, even liberals, need to believe that something or someone “out there” can make everything right when things aren’t right and life isn’t fair. However, liberals have largely rejected God, as evidenced by many of the policies and positions they adopt: pro-abortion, pro-gay-marriage, evolutionism over creationism/intelligent design, constant attacks by the Left on religion in general and specific religions, among others.
Now that the liberals have walked away from the true and living God, they are searching for replacements, just as the authors of my book searched. And just like those authors, they have found their God in government. For a liberal, government is God. If you can just make government big enough and strong enough and powerful enough, it can be all-seeing, all-knowing, all-wise, and can fix everything that’s wrong with the world.
This belief in government as God has even reached the point where some people see governmental figureheads as gods. Jamie Foxx, speaking recently at the Soul Train Awards, called Barack Obama, “Our Lord and Savior.”
So it makes sense why liberals would want more and more government, even though history clearly shows that bigger government solves nothing, and in fact leads to tyranny, suffering, and loss of freedom. It’s tough to convince a person that his or her God is false, and true religious zealots (and modern liberals are TRUE religious zealots), will do just about anything to support and sustain their religion and their god.
There is a lesson in this for those of us who hate tyranny and will fight with all we have against it. We cannot abandon the true and living God, or we leave ourselves open to the same fate as these sad and pathetic liberals. (Remember, a man who doesn’t stand for something will fall for anything.)
