The Daniel 11:22 War
In late February, two Turkish troops were killed in Libya. Around the same time, it was reported that at least 16 Turkish soldiers had been killed in Syria during February. On the flip side, Turkey has been doing some damage in the war-torn country. According to Turkey, “50 Syrian soldiers had been killed in retaliation” for the deaths of its troops. In addition, Russia accused Turkey of wounding four Syrian soldiers with artillery fire. Undeterred, Turkey promised to “push Syrian government forces away from its military observation posts in northwest Syria’s Idlib region.” Things appear to be escalating.
As we’ve discussed on numerous occasions, Turkey eventually joins the Antichrist in invading Israel, prophesied in Ezekiel 38. This makes sense, because most of Turkey’s natural gas imports come from Russia. In fact, the Turks have embraced Russia’s TurkStream pipeline project, making them more dependent than ever on the Russians. Turkey really can’t afford to go after the Russians in Syria or in Libya, but that doesn’t mean they won’t take a shot. It could get bloody. To a certain extent, it already has. When the dust settles, Russia will have won the battle of influence in Syria. How will Israel and the Arab states respond?

Sheep/Goat nations
The United States is done being the world’s policeman. Our navy isn’t defending global shipping lanes anymore and we’re no longer giving the world unrestricted access to our market. It’s not a new era; it’s a return to a world without a global policeman. With uncertainty about the safety of shipping routes and restricted access to America’s market, many countries will be in danger of collapse. Like it was before the US decided to protect the world and share its wealth, there’ll be wars of expansion.
In the coming era of territorial expansion, one potential addition to the United States is the Canadian province of Alberta. On its own, Alberta is one of the largest oil producers in the world. Yet, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau plans on imposing a federal carbon tax. This tax would decimate Alberta’s oil industry. What’s more, because of Canada’s equalization program, Alberta sends billions of dollars to the federal government and doesn’t get much in return. Under this system, Alberta literally pays Quebec’s bills. Unsurprisingly, Alberta secession is gaining traction, but it would be difficult for a landlocked oil-producing country to ship its crude. If Alberta became a US territory, that problem would be solved.
Well, recently, Teck Resources decided “to cancel a planned C$20.6 billion ($15.6 billion) oil sands mine in northern Alberta, citing uncertainty about Canada’s climate policy.” More and more, it seems like merely a matter of time before Alberta has to leave Canada behind.
Satanism
Britain’s Independent Inquiry into Child Sexual Abuse has found that several “senior political and police figures knew about child sexual abuse linked to Westminster” but they covered it up. Indeed, political institutions protected the perpetrators. The report concluded, “A consistent pattern emerged of failures to put the welfare of children above political status although we found no evidence of an organised network of paedophiles within government.”
A little while back, the Scottish Child Abuse Inquiry found that a boy was “sexually abused by two religious brothers” at St Ninian’s School, a school and residential care home run by a Catholic organization known as the Congregation of Christian Brothers. Older children regularly sexually assaulted younger ones at this school, priests raped kids at “satanic parties” and various boys were “trafficked around Scotland and Ireland at a time to be used in drink-fuelled sex parties.”
What is it with people in power and pedophilia? Simply put, it’s a satanic ploy to fill children with betrayal, fear and pain, keeping them from God’s love. Although it’s increasingly being normalized, pedophilia is satanic because it’s an inversion of God’s order. The only permissible sexual activity is between a husband and a wife. Jesus warned that “It would be better for him if a millstone were hung around his neck and he were thrown into the sea, than that he would cause one of these little ones to stumble.”

London = Babylon the Great?
In February, Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s spokesman said, “There are arrangements of fair and open competition in free trade deals that are proven to work, so there is no reason that our proximity to the EU should mean extra restrictions on trade.” The European Union has no leverage in trade negotiations with the United Kingdom because the Anglosphere is getting the band back together. Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s message has been simple: British sovereignty is more important than free trade. Yes, it could get very ugly for Europe. To make matters worse, Johnson has prioritized signing a trade deal with the United States post-Brexit. President Trump has repeatedly said that he looks forward to a bilateral trade deal with the United Kingdom, likely with tariff-free movement of goods both ways.
In such an arrangement, European companies would flock to the UK to get tariff-free access to the US market. Likewise, US companies would have tariff-free access to the EU by shipping to the UK. Wouldn’t the EU just impose tariffs on the UK? It’s unlikely, because the US would completely cut off Europe’s access to its market. This would crush the EU. They need access to the US market. The European business community would lobby heavily against a trade war. Quite the opposite, they would lobby to keep any US-UK arrangement, because it’s easy enough to invest in the UK.
Ultimately, the EU couldn’t do anything to stop a genuine free trade agreement between the UK and the US. Such an agreement would turn the UK into Europe’s biggest economy again. This is significant, because Babylon the Great is the financial center of the world’s economy and a global trading hub.
That’s all for this week! Thanks for reading and Godspeed!
