Israel Faces a Situation Unlike Any the World Has Ever Seen___ Update According to Israel Defense Forces (IDF) ___
The only ones who have any desire for a two-state solution with the Jews and the Islamic terrorists live far from the shores of Israel. It's impossible -- as the Islamic terror population’s single desire is to obliterate the Jews … they don’t want a two state solution they want all of Israel to be Islamic ‘Palestine’ with all Jews obliterated. *** *Excerpted full original report from Jewish Christian Amir Tsarfati in Galilee, Israel who is former Deputy Governor of Jericho, Israeli tour guide, author, and the Founder and President of Behold Israel here: https://harbingersdaily.com/amir-tsarfati-pressure-cooker-the-multifaceted-situation-israel-faces-is-unlike-any-the-world-has-seen-before/ Ezekiel 38:5-6; Psalm 83:6-8

__________ EV BATTERY REPAIR IS DANGEROUS 12-28-23, Grist.org -- ...A lithium-ion battery in a smartphone contains a single “cell” consisting of a graphite anode, a metallic cathode, and a liquid electrolyte that allows lithium ions to move from one side to the other to generate an electrical potential. An e-bike battery often contains dozens of cells. Electric vehicle batteries can contain hundreds to thousands of individual cells, which are often packaged into “modules,” and from there, bundled into a battery pack. In addition to cells and modules, electric car and e-bike batteries typically include a battery management system that monitors the battery’s state of health and controls the rate of charging and discharging. All lithium-ion batteries degrade with use and eventually need to be replaced ... battery repair is dangerous. If battery cells are damaged during a repair attempt, it can cause a short circuit that leads to a fire or explosion.

Israel’s Fake Meat 6-4-21, * -- Israel has a disproportionately high number of alternative meat startups – over 50 – apparently their goal and claim – ‘is cruelty-free’ meat:
| Cell-based or cultured meat is – quite literally – a different beast. It involves growing actual meat from cell cultures taken from a live animal, which means it is certainly not vegan. However, it is cruelty-free and vastly reduces the resources required to produce meat. “Once the cells are obtained, they are fed with nutrients that enable them to multiply – within a fraction of the time required to grow conventional meat, and without antibiotics.

1-12-24, Times of Israel -- The German government sharply rejects allegations before the UN’s top court that Israel is committing “genocide” in Gaza and warned against “political instrumentalization” of the charge. Spokesman Steffen Hebestrei stated that Germany “intends to intervene as a third party in the main hearing,” suggesting Berlin will intrude in South Africa’s primary case against Israel in which the court could take years to decide whether or not Israel has violated the Genocide Convention. Accordingly, the move does not appear to influence this week’s proceedings — hearings where South Africa has requested an interim injunction from the court compelling Israel to implement a ceasefire. A decision on that more immediate matter is expected within one month.

British and US Warships Repel Islamic Terror Group from Yemen, Houthi Attack in Red Sea
1-12-24, NYPost here -- The Yemen Islamic Houthi terrorists warned that the US and UK will pay a “heavy price” for striking more than a dozen targets in Yemen — and vowed to continue to target ships heading to ports in Israel. In a recorded address, Houthi military spokesman Brig. Gen. Yahya Saree said: "The 73 strikes hit five regions of Yemen under their control 1-11-24, Thursday — killing at least five people and wounding six others. The American and British enemy bears full responsibility for its criminal aggression against our Yemeni people, and it will not go unanswered and unpunished,” | USA Sec Defense Lloyd Austin said in a statement: "The joint US-UK strikes on Yemen Thursday, 1-11-24 were intended as a “direct response” to the [Houthi] group’s attacks on ships passing through the Red Sea. Today’s coalition action sends a clear message to the Houthis that they will bear the costs if they do not end their illegal attacks, The United States maintains its right to self-defense and, if necessary, we will take follow-up actions to protect US forces, We will not hesitate to defend our forces, the global economy and the free flow of legitimate commerce in one of the world’s most vital waterways.” |
Mr Shapps of UK said Tehran responsible for the attacks as the Houthis are one of a number of Iran-backed militant groups who are Israel's enemies: Islamic terror groups of Hamas and Hezbollah in Lebanon. “... Iran is guiding what is happening there in the Red Sea, providing them not just with equipment to carry out those attacks, but also often with the eyes and ears to allow those attacks to happen.” | Prime minister of United Kingdom [England] Rishi Sunak’s official spokesman said: “I am not going to speculate about how we will or will not respond to continued attacks. We do reserve the right to take further steps to protect commercial shipping and avoid the risk of further destabilising the region. That is something we will keep under review.” |
1-8-24, ASIATIMES -- The idea that water is substituted for fuel is preposterous: Corrosion-prone rockets are kept empty until needed. USA Bloomberg reported that it got the information from unnamed people who were “familiar with” a US intelligence assessment and that those US sources also said that new Xinjiang missile field silos were fitted with lids that were not installed properly and would not work – taken as another example of corruption. The story is technically naive when it comes to China’s missiles. China does not keep its liquid-fueled rockets filled with propellant. This means they are empty sitting in silos. If fuel was stored in a rocket booster the internal tanks and plumbing would soon be ruined by corrosion. The military fuels them if there are warning conditions requiring loading the missiles with fuel. [..] Reportedly it takes 30 to 60 minutes to fuel a DF-5. China’s DF-4 and DF-5 boosters use unsymmetrical dimethylhydrazine instead of liquid oxygen for fuel because it is easily stored. At present, and prior to China actually having an intercontinental solid-fueled strategic rocket capability, China does not have a true launch-on-warning system, although defense experts believe they are moving in that direction, developing new long-range solid-fuel missiles such as the DF-31 and DF-41. The DF-41 is intended as a road-mobile system. The DF-31 carries only a single warhead.

CLASSICAL TRADITIONAL ENJOYMENT AT THE BIRTHDAY OF JESUS ...
The 1892 Ballet:
"The Nutcracker"
And the world that was ...
In this one ballet, we gain a picture of a prosperous world that emerged in the late 19th century, was shortly shattered by war and revolution, and then was nearly killed off by the political and ideological experimentation of the 20th century. This ballet debuted in 1892. The generation of Russians living in St. Petersburg that saw it for the first time was experiencing a level of prosperity never before seen in history. It was the same all over Europe, of which Russia was considered a part. This was a time of the full maturation of the Industrial Revolution. Income was growing and dramatically. Lives were longer. Infant mortality was plummeting. The middle class could live in security and in comfortable homes, and the practical arts—electricity, lighting, telephones, universal medicine, indoor plumbing—were in a boom phase. We see these themes in the opening scenes of The Nutcracker. We’re in a home with a beautifully lit Christmas tree, and several generations of an extended family are celebrating the great season with abundant gifts. Gifts, that great symbol of abundance. The person of the nutcracker character himself; is a soldier - but not a killer, not a person destined for being maimed and killed or slaughtering others. A soldier in those days was a symbol of the nation, a protector and a well-dressed person of discipline and dignity who made the peace possible. He was an extension of regular society, someone performing a light duty deserving of extra respect. [..] This was a world that celebrated cross-cultural exchange. It was an age before the creation of passports, and traveling the world and seeing it all was first becoming possible for many people. You could ride on ships and not die of scurvy. Trains could take people from place to place in safety. Goods crossed borders as never before, and multicultural chic invaded arts and literature of all sorts. There was no managerial state, no one screaming about “cultural appropriation,” and no dominance of cursing whole groups for their identity. In The Nutcracker we gain a vision of an emerging world ethos a vision of a time and a place – it wasn’t just Russia. The ballet not only celebrated the sugar plum fairies, but also Arabian coffee dancers, Chinese tea dancers, Danish shepherdesses, and of course Russian candy cane dancers along with a beautiful array of fantasy figures. The composers and writers in Tchaikovsky’s era could not have imagined the horror that was unleashed by the Great War. The killing fields — 38 million dead, wounded, or missing – it was inconceivable. | The concept of a “total war” that did not exclude the civilian population, but rather made everyone part of the army. [..] What they could not imagine was the much vaster injustice that was just around the historical corner: mass use of poison gas, universal enslavement of the wartime draft, famine as a war tactic, the gulag, the Holocaust and slaughter of millions of Jewish people and their mass incineration. The Japan war when the USA dropped nuclear bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The features of society of the Russian people’s lives in the Nutcracker ballet was of faith, property, family, security. In 1917 following Russia’s disastrous involvement in World War I — resulting in horrible death and economic ruin — there was a revolution, one designed to overthrow despots and replace them with something completely new. The party that took control ruled under the pretext of ideological communism. And of what did that consist? Opposition to faith, property, family, and the very bourgeois life that is so celebrated in this ballet. If you look at the demographic data following the October 1917 revolution, you see calamity. Income fell by half. Life expectancy became static and fell. It was total wreckage, exactly what you would expect if you tried to get rid of property and attack the voluntary society at its core. Many decades of communist rule in Russia gutted the country of the life and joy that this ballet puts on display. Historians and those old enough; told the stories of terrible things. It was a wholesale looting of all the progress that Russia had experienced until that point in its history. The experience also unleashed a dominance of munitions manufacturers in the UK and US, the beginnings of the modern military-industrial complex, in addition to previously unthinkable controls on the civilian population, including censorship and witch hunts over political affiliation. This coincided in the US with what amounted to a revolution against liberty: the income tax, the 17th Amendment that abolished the bicameral Congress, and the Federal Reserve that was deployed to fund the murderous war. What’s beautiful about The Nutcracker is that we see none of it. This ballet was created in that great time of innocence when all the world foresaw a beautiful future of unstoppable and unending peace, prosperity, and justice. It portrays a culture of free association, gift giving, personal and material growth, spiritual reflection and artistic excellence, dancing and dreaming — it can and should be our future in the USA. |
We need not repeat the blunders of the past, the wars, horrors and lockdowns; rather, we can make a new world with a new theme as joyful as the melodies that have again enraptured millions. The "gift" of the nutcracker has broken; today it’s shattered beyond recognition in many of the world's nations -- including what we used to call the free world and America. Is it too late to put it back together?

Also, the Fagradalsfjall volcano is also threatening to erupt before Monday's explosion at Sundhnúkagíga, which has unleashed a much larger flow than any seen in recent years. With a huge magma tunnel stretching beneath the new volcano at Grindavik, fissures could still open without warning. A magma tunnel was also formed [underground] from which the eruption emerged, and it extends considerably further south and north and we fully expect they will start erupting without warning.

Why did America's Founding Fathers want a limited government? [here] One safeguard was that power was to be spread among three branches of government: the legislative, executive and judiciary. The idea was that each branch, to protect its own authority, would act to keep the other two from becoming too powerful. | Why did the framers want to limit the powers of national and state governments and limit the powers of the national and state government? They wanted to limit powers because they hoped to prevent tyranny and protect individuals liberties. More here |

12-10-23, Argentina‘s troubled economy has led to the victory of President-elect Javier Milei, whom many have branded a conservative radical ala 'TRUMP!' Given the USA's fiscal and monetary troubles, what has happened in Argentina has implications for the United States. Milei’s ideas are neither radical nor novel as they represent moving toward and returning to normal and a repudiation of the economic sins Argentina has repeatedly committed. The nation is in the throes of its fifth hyperinflation in less than five decades, with prices now rising 143% per year. It was enough to convince him that it was time for a 180-degree change in economic policy. | The people want to make Argentina great again as President Donald Trump said when he congratulated him. The USA is following in Argentina’s footsteps, but is running instead of walking. Relative to the size of the economy, America is racking up deficits twice as large as those of Buenos Aires. More than 40% of U.S. personal income taxes in America are consumed just in interest on the federal debt. If America's spending is not cut soon, Argentina-style hyperinflation will follow as the only way to pay for excessive, out of control government spending. More here from Heritage.org |
USA Banks Shock People
12-8-23, Jack Straw, Twitter [here] -- The mainstream media won’t release the information about the failing USA banks making private channels the sole source. Every employee in financial institutions is bound by non-disclosure agreements. While some remain tight-lipped, others are so enthusiastic about the positive developments that they can’t resist sharing the information with friends or family. I make an effort to verify the information I publish with at least one additional source. [..] More ... Banks are shutting down branches in rural areas in the UK; it's not profitable. Not many people use banking services or cash at a branch; a lot more on line. | Weaning people off cash setting trend for the upcoming CBDC era [central bank money = money that's a liability of the central bank 'CENTRAL BANK DIGITAL CURRENCY]. [..] EP and member states on the digital and CDBCs ... “The European Parliament and Member States just reached an agreement on introducing the Digital Identity, #eID. Directly afterward, #EU Commissioner Breton said: “Now that we have a Digital Identity Wallet, we have to put something in it…” This suggests a connection between #CBDC and eID. They ignored all the privacy experts and security specialists. They’re pushing it all through. Failed bank list from FDIC.gov here |
Reportedly, Ukraine's Prez Volodymyr Zelensky and his close associates, Boris and Sergei Shefir purchased two luxury yachts worth a combined $75 million
Journalist Shazad Nazir reports that the purchases were in October 2023 in the cities of Antibes and Abu Dhabi
dailypost.ng/2023/11/28/bengue-patrick-shefir-brothers-yacht-purchases-and-call-for-transparency-in-ukrainian-leadership
11-24-23, It’s a tale of luxury and camaraderie in the realm of Ukrainian President Zelensky, who seemingly orchestrated the purchase of two lavish yachts, at a whopping $75 million. The art of conspicuous consumption seems to involve paperwork maneuvers — gotta have those friends willing to sign off on Zelensky’s extravagant buys. Whether it’s through money laundering or the trusted proxy route, that’s the playbook for Zelensky-style shopping. | Not too long ago, the narrative swirled around Zelensky’s wife begging for funds from world governments, only to later be spotted indulging in a luxurious Parisian spree. It’s almost comical—America sends money, and voilà, Paris becomes the shopping haven. Now, as per journalist Shahzad Naser’s revelations, the yacht saga continues. Zelensky’s confidantes, the Shafir brothers—Serhey and Boris—apparently facilitated the purchase of these extravagant vessels, docking them conspicuously in Abu Dhabi and Antibes within a hair’s breadth of time. |

11-27-23, Garrison -- The tide is turning. Socialism always fails and the people have had enough. Libertarian Javier Melei now leads Argentina and he has pledged to shut down the central bankers as well as to greatly trim down the bloated and wasteful government there. Milei want’s to “Make Argentina Great Again.” In the Netherlands, conservative Geert Wilder was elected. The Marxist media labels him as ‘far right’ because he wants to end the tsunami of Muslims flowing into the country. Immigrants there are consuming expensive social services while contributing nothing but crime. Donald Trump in 2016 was the lit fuse that started the explosion of populist, nationalist leaders. We’re now seeing them getting elected around the world. Trump will most likely see a second term if the election is not stolen from him once again. The tide of woke, cultural, globalist Marxism is being turned back at last as nationalist heroes are stepping up and leading the people to say “NO MORE!” | Socialists are fond of saying that socialism has never failed because it has never been tried. But in truth, Socialism has failed in every country in which it has been tried even the Soviet Union. [Note here: Also the early American Pilgrims. Recorded in the diary of Governor William Bradford, the colonists collectively cleared and worked the land that all was to be shared equally. Howevewr, there was no spirit of shared and cheerful brotherhood because the less industrious members of the colony came late to their work in the fields and were slow and easy in their labors. Knowing that they and their families were to receive an equal share of whatever the group produced, they saw little reason to be more diligent in their efforts. And the harder working among the colonists became resentful that their efforts would be redistributed to their more malingering neighbors. Soon they, too, were coming late to work and were less energetic in the fields so 'Socialism' was canceled! In modern times 3 nations [here] - Israel, India, and the U.K., also adhered to socialist principles, nationalizing their major industries ... but it failed like the Pilgrims. |
