It appears the Gerald Ford and its accompanying group will move to the Eastern Mediterranean. It is currently deployed around Italy but is moving eastward. Its role is not made public at this point.
Is the state of Texas at war with Mexico? The drug cartels control the Mexican army (and government) who aren't visibly on sight but who are doing nothing to help us. God bless those tough ass Texas Rangers and the women among them. https://www.healthrangerreport.com/
The UK has reportedly deployed a SpecOps group to the Ford, and the Australians are considering the options to evacuate their citizens. A number of Americans, Canadians, and British people have been taken hostage or killed as they were attending some concert being held there. Commercial flights have been mostly shut down, so charter flights are being organized by countries to get stranded citizens out to at least as far as Turkey. No word on what the Canadians are doing, but they don't have much of a military to deploy, so they may be working with American forces.
Israeli woman in back of pickup truck striped, beaten to death by Hamas, other spit on her body, Caution disturbing video. https://twitter.com/i/status/1710549187463696823
Marie, I’m probably not going to look but was this the German tattoo artist that was kidnapped from the music festival and driven through the streets? I believe her last name was Louk. She was a young beautiful woman who held German-Israeli citizenship. I think I’ve about reached my limit of pictures I will never be able to unsee but don’t stop sharing if you can stand it. People need to know. I haven’t heard anything about the Canadians either but did hear that the number of bodies found at the music festival in the south of Israel was 250-260, likely all young people just enjoying music on a holiday weekend. Don, there must be a large number of people from those countries who are in Israel but hold dual citizenship with those countries. Fox News is also saying that Hamas and Hezbollah are admitting that Iran helped them plan the attack. $600B certainly emboldened them.
More than 40 hours after militants from Gaza surged across the border, Israel’s military said its forces were still battling gunmen on Israeli territory. At least 700 Israelis are believed to have been killed and more than 413 Palestinians are dead. https://www.nytimes.com/live/2023/10/08/world/israel-gaza-attack-hamas-news Oct. 8, 2023, 5:02 p.m. ET59 minutes ago 59 minutes ago Aaron Boxerman A senior Hamas official, Moussa Abu Marzook, said in a broadcast interview that while Hamas had yet to count all of the Israeli prisoners captured during the recent assault, they “number more than 100.” The hostages include senior military officers, Marzook told the Al-Ghad channel.
Vada good for you for not looking at this evil. it is not good for our souls for sure. The Bible tells us not to think on these bad things, Phil., 4: 8 below,I think I need to stop posting the bad things too. https://www.bing.com/ck/a?!&&p=9ec63d787156889bJmltdHM9MTY5NjcyMzIwMCZpZ3VpZD0yMjZhOGU1OC1lZWNlLTY1ZTQtMzE2MC05ZGZjZWZlMjY0OWQmaW5zaWQ9NTIwOQ&ptn=3&hsh=3&fclid=226a8e58-eece-65e4-3160-9dfcefe2649d&psq=Bible+verse,+whatever+is+of+good+report,think+on+these+things&u=a1aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuYmlibGVnYXRld2F5LmNvbS9wYXNzYWdlLz9zZWFyY2g9UGhpbGlwcGlhbnMlMjA0OjgmdmVyc2lvbj1LSlY&ntb=1
I went to church Sunday and just couldn't stay. I have been very depressed lately and had to think it through to figure out why. It comes down to that it looks like we are in the end times. I don't want to be in the end times. I think my Savior is going to demand things of me that I don't know if I am strong enough for. It seems we're already fighting World Ward Three and are close to a nuclear holocaust. China has surrounded Taiwan and is claiming the whole of the South China Sea as its territory. Our much vaulted aircraft carriers are obsolete. Missile and torpedo tech is so advanced that they can all be sunk in a day. Obama-Biden and that crowd are working hard to destroy our country. The rest of the world is watching us. We are the last holdout against the New World Order and the Great Reset. More and more people are becoming aware of the real story but there are things already in motion that will be hard to stop. The police, FBI, CIA and the rest are being taught that Trump supporters, conservatives and Christians are the enemy. I love my country and I'm afraid it's going to die.
Reading Twitter news this morning, and all of the talk is about the Hamas attack and what is coming in the future, as well as how it is likely to affect us living in the United States. People are pointing out that we have Hamas militant sleepers all over the US, and that we are apt to see terrorists attacks in the next year right here, especially in the larger cities. Here is one quote I read: “Sources telling me that there were emergency intel meetings this weekend to discuss the rise of Hamas terror cells that are operating in American cities. These HAMAS terrorists came across the US border and are apparently planning to attack major US cities over the next 14 months. HAMAS has directed their supporters in their telegram to retaliate against Americans for US support of Israel.” If this happens, will we even have an election next fall ? And Biden has not re-frozen the billions that he just gave Iran, which shows that he has no intention of trying to stop any of this . We have been sending weapon and ammunition to Ukraine, so who knows if we can even defend our own country if we are attacked.
Ok, I’m tougher in the morning so I watched the video. I do believe it is important to see what these jackals do. It is hard to believe people can be so depraved if I do not see it for myself. Marie, thanks for the Scripture. Philippians 4:8 is a very good and encouraging verse. Dwight, I understand what you are saying. I think we all have times like you describe and you are not alone with those feelings. Remember, He will be with us no matter what happens. I follow David Jeremiah’s studies. His current series might be helpful but only you will know. It’s just a suggestion and I am not offended if it’s not the right thing for you. https://www.davidjeremiah.org/ Yvonne, a lot of us think about these things. I think the Biden administration is the worst we’ve ever had and certainly our borders are open to the world. I agree it’s hard to know what could happen. I do believe that synagogues and other Jewish establishments are at even greater risk in the US now. I did hear that protection is being increased in many areas. I hope it is enough.
Re. Your statement (bold, underlined), I’ve mentioned I’ve been reading about the projections of this A.I., “Socrates” that this guy developed for looking at global trade and economics. A few months ago, he said that Socrates said there was an 18% chance that the 2024 U.S. presidential election would fail to be held. He said what’s most alarming to him is that it would make a projection like that at all. He said it has never done that, including times when he has fed in historical data and asked it to make predictions so he could compare with history.
Vada (nice name), it's good to hear from you.Thinking or feeling it through some more i think I have no right to be depressed. I need to be clear-headed and ready for whatever I'm needed for, if anything is needed of a 71 year old guy with pneumonia. I'm trying to let go of this stupid self drama I am prone to. I'm glad to know you guys.
