Swine Flu Pandemic?

Reports of new swine flu outbreaks are coming in almost constantly now and the World Health Organization has raised the threat level from a Phase 3 Global Outbreak to Phase 4, which has never been done before. Meanwhile, scientists are completely puzzled how such a powerful strain that combines elements of swine flu, bird flu and human flu could have appeared seemingly out of nowhere.

So is this going to be the big one?

Is this the one that is going to kill millions of people?

It is too early to tell, but here is what we do know at this hour.....

First of all, this "swine flu" is not just run of the mill swine flu. It contains elements of the following.....

*Avian flu
*Human flu
*European swine flu
*Asian swine flu

Now how in the world did an incredibly strong combination of these viruses appear seemingly out of nowhere?

Scientists are baffled.

Meanwhile this "swine flu" is popping up all over the U.S. and Mexico.

In Mexico alone, there are already over 1600 suspected cases and 149 suspected deaths from the swine flu so far. Most public events have been canceled, and millions of Mexicans are hiding indoors in an attempt to escape the swine flu.

46 cases of the swine flu have been confirmed in the United States, and the CDC says that it is too late to contain the swine flu outbreak in the United States.

In fact, some public schools in Texas are being closed because of nearby swine flu cases.

These outbreaks in the U.S. and Mexico are already causing panic reactions from other parts of the world.

EU health commissioner Andorra Vassiliou has asked Europeans to postpone nonessential travel to the United States or Mexico. In addition, China has banned the import of hog and pork products from Mexico and parts of the United States.

Google actually has a great tool that you can use to track the spread of this swine flu. You can follow the progress of the swine flu on Google maps right here.

So what can we expect to see going forward?

The next few days are going to be key.

If only a few hundred people end up dying from this swine flu that is not that big of a deal. Hundreds of people die from many different causes every day.

But if this disease starts sweeping the globe and thousands of people start dying, then that could indicate that this IS the big one.

The reality is that we have been warning of a coming flu plague for quite some time.

What is even more disturbing is the possibility that this new flu may be engineered. We recently reported on the unlabeled bird flu/human flu mixture that Baxter International "accidently" sent out to other labs.

Why would our scientists mix these dangerous viruses together so recklessly? The CDC was mixing human flu and bird flu together as far back as 2004. This is incredibly dangerous to do. One mistake and a pandemic virus can be released that could kill millions of people.

So how many people will this "swine flu" virus kill?

Is this going to become a massive pandemic?

Nobody can say for certain yet, but it is getting frightening out there. Be sure to take the necessary precautions to keep your family safe.

Nuclear Iran

The deadline for western nations to decide what to do about Iran's nuclear program is closer than ever. Based on Tehran's announcement that they now have 7,000 centrifuges in operation to enrich uranium, intelligence sources are now warning that Iran could have a nuclear weapon in as little as 60 days.

This 60 day estimate is based on projections of what would be possible if the 7,000 centrifuges were to work at top speed 24 hours a day, seven days a week. So if Iran was to go all out over the next two months, they could produce enough weapons-grade uranium to build a nuclear weapon.

Even without running the centrifuges 24 hours a day, experts now believe that Iran will be able to produce as many as 60 nuclear bombs and warheads in 12 to 18 months.

That is frightening.

I don't think most people in western nations realize what it would mean for a fanatical Islamic regime that is dedicated to worldwide conquest to possess a full fledged nuclear arsenal.

The truth is that Iran supports terrorist groups and supplies them with weapons. What would happen if Iran started supplying them with nuclear bombs?

It's not like Iran would be sad if terrorist groups started nuking targets in the United States or Israel.

And the truth is Iran is doing whatever it can to accelerate their nuclear program.

Check out the following intelligence report from Debka.....

Japanese sources recently reported that a North Korean boat shipped a large quantity to Iran earlier this year. According to the big-circulation The Nikkei, the North Korean vessel's hold carried a secret cargo of uranium highly-enriched to 50-60 percent. The ship set out for Iran in December, moving moved at a leisurely pace so as not to call attention from Western spy satellites, surveillance vessels and warships. Earlier this year, the illegal consignment was dropped at an Iranian port for transport to a facility near Tehran, according to the Japanese paper.

Can the western nations allow nuclear weapons to fall into the hand of a madman who has spoken publicly numerous times about how he envisions the absolute destruction of Israel?

The following are actual quotes from Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad about the state of Israel.....

"Anybody who recognizes Israel will burn in the fire of the Islamic nation's fury."

"Remove Israel before it is too late and save yourself from the fury of regional nations."

"The skirmishes in the occupied land are part of a war of destiny. The outcome of hundreds of years of war will be defined in Palestinian land. As the Imam said, Israel must be wiped off the map."

"If the West does not support Israel, this regime will be toppled. As it has lost its raison d' tre, Israel will be annihilated."

"Israel is a tyrannical regime that will one day will be destroyed."

"Israel is a rotten, dried tree that will be annihilated in one storm."

Up to this point, Barack Obama has shown no indication that he plans to strike Iran, and there are reports that his Secretary of Defense, Robert Gates, is totally against hitting Iran's nuclear program.

So that leaves Israel.

Benjamin Netanyahu has left no doubt that he will not accept a nuclear Iran.

Even without the United States, Israel does have the capability to hit Iran's nuclear program and wipe it out.

So what can we expect?

What we can expect is that the U.S. will probably wimp out, and that Israel probably will strike Iran's nuclear program by itself at some point before Iran gets nuclear weapons.

Based on these new reports, that deadline could be in as little as a couple of months.

Bird Flu Pandemic?

Scientists now believe that the bird flu is killing people more slowly. Do you think that is good news? It's not. In fact, scientists fear that by not killing people as quickly, the bird flu has a much better chance of becoming a pandemic that will kill millions because it gives the disease more time to spread before killing the host.

These days the topic of a potential bird flu pandemic is mainstream news. One major U.K. newspaper says that the recent outbreak of new human bird flu cases suggests that the danger of a pandemic is rising:

First the good news: bird flu is becoming less deadly. Now the bad: scientists fear that this is the very thing that could make the virus more able to cause a pandemic that would kill hundreds of millions of people.

Did you get that last part?

Hundreds of millions of people.

In fact, last year the U.K. government identified the bird flu as the biggest single threat facing the nation. The U.K. government's own estimate states that the bird flu has the potential to kill up to 750,000 U.K. citizens.

Some of the most troubling bird flu news has come out of Egypt recently. Three more human bird flu cases were reported there just last week. What is strange is that almost all of the recent cases there have been in children under the age of three.

The frightening thing is that these infections have been less deadly than usual. Normally the bird flu quickly kills over 50 percent of those infected. But every one of the Egyptians infected in 2009 are still alive.

That may sound like good news, but it is not. Victims that don't die or that die slowly are likely to spread the disease to many others. This could lead to a much, much higher death toll.

In fact, studies show that a potential bird flu pandemic that killed even 5 percent of those it infected could still cause hundreds of millions of deaths across the globe.

There are other disturbing signs that a bird flu pandemic may be approaching. The Austrian branch of U.S. vaccine maker Baxter is under close scrutiny by health officials for sending a mixture of H3N2 seasonal human flu and unlabelled H5N1 bird flu to other unsuspecting labs around Europe.

Fortunately, a lab in the Czech Republic that received one of these batches tested it on some ferrets. All of the ferrets died, which they were not supposed to do, so they alerted Baxter. You see, ferrets do not die from human H3N2 flu. Further testing confirmed that the sample which the lab in the Czech Republic received contained live H5N1 bird flu virus.

The big unanswered question is how in the world human H3N2 and avian H5N1 viruses somehow became co-mingled. Investigators are so far baffled as to how the company could have been so incredibly negligent as to have allowed human flu and bird flu to have gotten mixed together like that.

The reality is that an accidental release of a mixture of live H5N1 and H3N2 viruses to the public could have triggered a devastating pandemic.

How bad could things have gotten if this had gotten out into the public?

The Toronto Sun explains it this way:

While H5N1 doesn’t easily infect people, H3N2 viruses do. If someone exposed to a mixture of the two had been simultaneously infected with both strains, he or she could have served as an incubator for a hybrid virus able to transmit easily to and among people.

Some are even suggesting that Baxter may have had a profit motive in all of this. If bird flu did start spreading among humans, it would create an overnight demand for bird flu vaccines which Baxter makes. The profits that Baxter International would reap during such a panic would be enormous.

If the scientific community is not more careful they might end up being the ones unleashing a bird flu pandemic by accident. For example, nine health workers are on trial in northern Poland for testing a bird flu vaccine on nearly 200 poor and homeless patients without their knowledge. The allegations state that these health workers told their patients that they were being vaccinated against ordinary seasonal flu. Many of the patients ended up dying from the bird flu.

Now who in the world would be stupid enough to infect almost 200 poor and homeless people and let them wander around and pass it to others?

Disturbing reports of bird flu activity have been popping up all across the globe recently, and the reality is that if H5N1 does transition into a form that is easily transmissible from human to human then we will have a problem of unimaginable proportions on our hands.

You better get ready.

Telling The Truth?

"Evangelical" Christianity in America is dramatically changing. Popular spiritual leaders such as Rick Warren and Joel Osteen are abandoning traditional belief structures and are saying things on national television that would have been unthinkable for an "evangelical" minister to say just 20 or 30 years ago. But are they telling the truth?

For example, a few nights ago on Larry King Live, Rick Warren shocked the evangelical Christian community across America with his comments about gay marriage. Warren declared that he is not an "anti-gay marriage activist" and that he "never will be."

In fact, Warren seemed completely ashamed of Proposition 8 on Larry King Live. He emphatically told King that he never once gave Proposition 8 an endorsement:

During the whole Proposition 8 thing, I never once went to a meeting, never once issued a statement, never -- never once even gave an endorsement in the two years Prop 8 was going.

Hmmm, that's strange.

Last October, just weeks before the election Warren told his congregation this:

"Now let me say this really clearly: we support Proposition 8 -- and if you believe what the Bible says about marriage, you need to support Proposition 8."

Does that sound like an endorsement to you?

It sounds like one to me.

But now Rick Warren sounds completely ashamed for ever having any support for Proposition 8. In fact, he told Larry King that he actually has apologized for supporting it:

I wrote to all my gay friends -- the leaders that I knew -- and actually apologized to them.

Wow.

Later in the same interview King asked him about the Iowa decision to legalize gay marriage. This is the exchange that occurred:

KING: All right. Do you, therefore, criticize or not comment on the Iowa court decision to permit gay marriage?

WARREN: Yes. I'm -- I'm totally oblivious to -- to what -- that's not even my agenda. My agenda is two things.

Rick Warren, who some call "the next Billy Graham", says that it is "not even my agenda" to even give an opinion on the legalization of gay marriage.

When asked about President Barack Obama, Warren had this to say:

I think he is a -- he's a good leader.

Warren is not the only evangelical leader who is openly supporting Barack Obama. The following is an exchange that happened recently on the Larry King Live show when Joel and Victoria Osteen appeared as guests:

Larry King: Since you were last on, we have sworn in our first African-American president. What are your impressions [of Barack Obama]?

Joel Osteen: Well, I think he's doing a great job. I'm impressed with his skill, his calmness, his just strength under pressure. These are tough times for him.

King: And you, Victoria?

Victoria Osteen: I've been really impressed. In fact, I've been impressed [with] the first lady. She stepped up, and she's done a remarkable job.

He's doing a great job?

We should be impressed with Obama?

Impressed that he overturned the ban on federal funding for research on baby human embryos?

Impressed that he is the most rabidly pro-abortion president in the history of the United States?

Since 1973, more than 40 MILLION innocent babies have been chopped up and slaughtered in the American abortion mills.

What the United States has done is beyond imagination. The reality is that we have dissected our babies, burned them alive, sucked their brains out and yet the American people seem to care about this issue less than ever.

How far down the toilet have we gone as a society when we kill about a million babies a year, and even evangelical "leaders" do not get upset about it anymore?

Is there any hope?

Well, Barack Obama is so rabidly pro-abortion that he even voted AGAINST a bill that would have provided medical care for infants that survived an abortion procedure. Even Hillary Clinton was not in favor of that.

For a full examination of what President Obama believes regarding abortion watch the following video.....



It is time for all Americans to wake up to the horror of abortion.

Let's take a really quick look at one very cruel method of abortion which the Freedom of Choice Act would once again legalize.....

Five steps to a partial birth abortion:

1) Guided by ultrasound, the abortionist grabs the baby's legs with forceps.

2) The baby's leg is pulled out into the birth canal.

3) The abortionist delivers the baby's entire body, except for the head.

4) The abortionist jams scissors into the baby's skull. The scissors are then opened to enlarge the skull.

5) The scissors are removed and a suction catheter is inserted. The child's brains are sucked out, causing the skull to collapse. The dead baby is then removed.

But "ministers" like Rick Warren and Joel Osteen have no problem with this.

They are too busy enjoying the big money and the bright lights of television.

The World Currency

For the first time ever, world leaders and big media are openly talking about the creation of a one world currency. While some people thought we would never see a world currency, the truth is that the recent G20 summit was another huge step towards making it a reality.

Point 19 of the communique issued by the G20 leaders is the biggest official step towards a global currency that we have ever seen:

"We have agreed to support a general SDR allocation which will inject $250bn (£170bn) into the world economy and increase global liquidity."

So what are SDRs?

SDRs are "Special Drawing Rights", which is a synthetic paper currency issued by the International Monetary Fund. This concept has basically been dormant for half a century, but now the G20 has fully revived it.

Basically what the G20 leaders have done is that they have activated the IMF's power to create money. They call it "quantitative easing".

By giving the IMF the power to create money, the world leaders at the G20 summit have officially launched a world currency that is outside the control of any national government.

Now mainstream media outlets are even openly discussing the possibility of a one world currency. Just yesterday, MSNBC ran this shocking headline: What if the world all used the same currency?

Even George Soros is now openly discussing the prospect of a one world currency: "In the long run, having an international accounting unit rather than the dollar may, in fact, be to our advantage."

It was the Russians and the Chinese who were the most vocal supporters of the creation of a world currency at the G20 summit. They want to see an end to the domination of the dollar in international commerce.

But Russia is not alone. Kazakhstan's President Nursultan Nazarbayev is also openly calling for a one world currency.

Nazarbayev says that "we must create a single world currency under the aegis of the United Nations."

Nazarbayev's view is echoed by Canadian economist and Nobel prize winning professor Robert Mundell. Mundell, who was a key intellectual force behind the creation of the Euro, is also actively promoting the idea of one world currency.

WorldNetDaily reports that Mundell told the Australian News this: "I must say that I agree with President Nazarbayev on his statement and many of the things he said in his plan, the project he made for the world currency, and I believe I'm right on track with what he is saying."

The truth is that a one world currency has been the goal of globalist organization such as the Council on Foreign Relations for a long time. In a 2007 issue of their Foreign Affairs magazine, the published an article entitled, "The end of national currency" in which they recommended that "countries should abandon monetary nationalism."

So how would a one world currency work?

Basically a one world central bank owned and run by the international banking elite would print, issue and control the single currency of the entire world. In many ways this represents one of the ultimate goals of the international bankers.

Imagine what you could do if you had total control over the currency of the whole world.

In fact, the IMF is totally controlled by the international bankers, and now that the IMF is creating money, is there any realistic chance that a full-fledged global currency can be stopped?

Let's hope so.

Wiccan Religion

The Wiccan religion is exploding in popularity. As Christianity fades in the Western world, hundreds of thousands of people, especially women, are turning to alternative religions such as Wicca.

The new American Religious Identification Survey shows that most religions in the United States are losing members fast. However, that is not the case with the Wiccan religion which is growing rapidly. The survey revealed that Wiccans, witches and other "new religious movements" have grown by more than a million members since the last ARIS survey was published in 2001.

"Wicca is the fastest-growing religion in America, set to be the third largest religion by 2012," claims Marla Alupoaicei, the co-author of the controversial new book "Generation Hex".

Alupoaicei also says that "The numbers of adherents are doubling every 30 months".

The truth is that there are now over 700,000 websites for Wiccans, and there are communities of Wiccans in every major city in the United States.

This comes at a time when there is a mass exodus from many of the established churches in the western world.

Women, in particular, seem to be leaving many traditional churches at a blinding pace. An English church census recently found that more than 50,000 women a year are leaving the Anglican church.

Many of these women (and men) are deserting traditional Christianity for Wicca and other forms of pagan religion.

So just what is Wicca?

High Priestess Janina Giordano says that Wicca is “a new religion based on very old, ancient practices.”

The prominent Wicca leader who goes by the name of "Starhawk" (the author of "The Spiral Dance: A Rebirth of the Ancient Religion of the Great Goddess") defines Wicca this way:

"Witchcraft" or "Wicca" refers to the specific set of Goddess-centered traditions that come from Europe and the Middle East. "Witch" is a subset of "Pagan," just as "Methodist" or "Baptist" is a subset of "Christian." And we capitalize "Witch" just as we capitalize "Mormon" or "Buddhist."

Young people in particular seem to be really taking to Wicca. The Pagan Federation in the United Kingdom reportedly receives hundreds of enquiries from teenagers every single day of the year.

Harry Potter and other media such as "Charmed", "Buffy the Vampire Slayer", "Sabrina the Teenage Witch" and "The Craft" have helped make Wicca and witchcraft increasingly popular in recent years.

Does a mass shift of our population into "tolerant" religions such as Wicca where there are no set "doctrines" and very few rules about what is right or wrong prepare us for the time when a one world faith will arise?

Will the adoption of witchcraft by a large percentage of our young people make it easier for the people of the Western democracies to be herded into a one world government and a one world Luciferian religion?

The truth is that as we move through the last days the darkness is only going to get darker. Young people are fascinated when they find out that there is actually REAL power in the Wiccan religion and in witchcraft. The vast majority of people have never seen any REAL power in a Christian church, so they are pretty much blown away by what a lot of these witches can do.

So for those of us who are Christians, we need to get much closer to the Lord so that we can shine that much brighter as the world gets darker. May we be a light in the darkness that can help those who seek to escape the grasp of evil.
