Have you noticed that the world is becoming extremely unstable on every front? The only nation that kept the world fairly stable since the Second World War now is projecting a great deal of instability to the rest of the world. Because of our own unraveling the whole world is about to unravel into a third world war and all sorts of evils. Obama with his lame brain foreign policy that projects weakness reflects a major aspect of this national unraveling.
This is the first America president that acts and thinks like a third world president. Will the nation be made into his image? In just one year Obama has alienated our friends and has projected a weak America to all of our enemies. Obama has tried to please tyrants by telling them what they want to hear instead of what they need to hear. Nevertheless, these predators know weakness when they see it. In return they show disrespect and mock America and Obama.
Obama’s appeasement overtures went out to Iran, N. Korea, China, Venezuela, Cuba, Russia, Arabs, Islamic terrorists and others but they clearly thumb their nose at him and take great comfort in the belief that this appeasing president will never do nothing to upset their own agenda.
Our longstanding friendship with Great Britain and our friendship with Israel is being destroyed by the Obama administration. This president has disrespected our greatest friends. This is especially dangerous with Israel because if Israel can no longer count on the United States to stop Iran from getting nuclear weapons they will do it themselves. Under the Obama administration we are also getting to the point were America stands against the right of Israel to defend herself against the enemies arming to attack her. If Israel feels America is no longer a ally against her enemies there is no reason for Israel to wait to destroy them. Israel believes it must strike enemies while she has the strength to win. There is no retreat when your nation is surrounded by enemies and 40,000 rockets earmarked to be fired into Israel.
Obama projects weakness to Iran by sanctions that everyone knows will not work while the American military is actually preparing for war with Iran by moving bunker-buster bombs to Diego Garcia. That mixed message makes no sense. We tried the same thing with two wars with Iraq to no avail. People in our last few American administrations keep doing the same thing over and over again expecting different results. Why? To appease the world that will never believe that there could be good intentions behind US military actions. They would rather get nuked than to think that some people just cannot be reasoned with or that they would actually use WMD if they had them. But, when a WMD attack actually happens to them they will be the first ones to turn into instant Nazi’s
Obama thinks appeasement will make Iran reasonable but what he is really doing is just telling Iran that they have more time left to build their nuclear weapons program. Meanwhile, Israel knows the time for appeasement is about up and if it even appears that the United States will not stop Iran from developing a nuke they will strike Iran. In that case the whole Middle East will unravel into a great war and Iran will make certain that America also gets sucked into the war.
Obama and staff do the same with N. Korea. You might think that after over 50 years of trying to appease the North Koreans that the State Department would have learned that you cannot appease madmen. This is a fatal flaw of liberals that believe in the basic goodness of man. But, on the contrary, unregenerate man is evil and will respond within his fallen human nature. Bullies on earth are predators, they respond to superior force, they are not persuaded through appeasement. The weak are just lambs for the slaughter for predators. Meanwhile, with all their appeasement the State Department is really abetting predators that have murdered millions and continue to murder people on their own hunting ground. The N. Korean cult leaders keep making grandiose threats because Americans have demonstrated over and over that N. Korea making threats brings them appeasement and free aid. If enough of the North Korean military leaders actually believe the propaganda of there “Dear Leader” god. they will drink his Kool-Aid on his command and carry out what will amount to national suicide.
There are current indications that China’s fascist dictators are now miscalculating because of our projection of weakness and their own self delusions that they have already become a superpower because they can undersell the world and flood world markets with their cheap crap. When actions are taken against China’s predator trade policy (as will happen later this year). China could very well respond with face-saving overreactions that will bring the world into great turmoil. If the Obama administration is going to give an oppressive fascist state superpower status in the world don’t be surprised when they actually try to live up to the billing. Better never to project any weakness with bullies and tyrants. But, how does an American administration project strength to the world with a State Department continually led by skirts and pantsuits and other high ranking bureaucrats that might as well be wearing them.
There is a great unraveling going on down Mexico way and is also being exported to America. Drug gangs are taking over Mexico and are also taking over American inner cities.
“In 2009 the U.S. Department of Justice National Drug Intelligence Center identified about 200 major U.S. cities with known presence of Mexican drug-trafficking organizations. The following is a map of those cities:
The drug cartels produce and distribute methamphetamine and marijuana in the U.S.”
Every big city in America is already a war zone due to gangs and this unraveling of law and order will turn the cities of the United States into little Mexico’s where some police and military are on one side of the drug war and the gangs are on the other. The people are caught in the middle of the fighting. It is not safe to travel in Mexico anymore and neither is it safe to travel in American inner cities. If you do not believe me spend a night on the streets in any large inner American city.
Our prisons and law enforcements have also reached the great unraveling point. Half of the over 2.3 million people incarcerated in America are in for drug convictions and they then work on the other half in prison to recruit them into organized crime or even terrorism. If everyone was locked up that should be doing time for breaking drug laws in the United States we would have fifty million in prison at any given time. Are we really fighting to win a war against drugs or has the war just made drugs more profitable for scum sucking traffickers and also created a police state in the process??
It is obvious that the American system of government has reached the unraveling point. Government “by the people” is not working anymore. Just watch as they shove this health bill down everyone’s throat even though the people have clearly expressed their disgust for it. They will do it because there are too many people in government that only care about power and control. Many politicians will sell their own mother to Satan if it will get them something in return. They are not there to serve the people. It is not just Federal government either. Most states are now police states and the same can be said about many counties, cities and towns. The idea of personal freedom is just about dead in America. You cannot live in America anymore without breaking someone’s law. If you do not believe me let me examine your income tax, your licenses, your permits, the way you raise your children, the length of your grass, your water use, your breath, your blood, your urine, your house, your decibel levels, where you cross the street, where you camp, your guns, how you speak about perverts, etc., etc.
There is also a great unraveling happening in our churches. Preaching true Christianity is out of vogue with the new great spiritual leaders that act more like world politicians than religious leaders. They want everyone to preach communistic social justice and the interfaith socialism of the emergent world harlot. How many churches in America actually preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ anymore? In most big cities they certainly are a small minority. The Christian doctrine of salvation in Jesus Christ has unraveled in America because most Americans would rather just get along with the world’s philosophies then to actually believe they are sinners in need of salvation.
As this year progresses expect to see much unraveling take place. The little peace that is left in the world is about to unravel, the economy is about to unravel, Christians churches are unraveling, law and order is unraveling, the political system is unraveling, etc.
Yes, There is hope, for believers there is one thing that will never unravel, and that is true faith in Jesus Christ. But when Jesus comes will He find faith on the earth? (Lk 18:8). I hope you are one of those that can answer yes with certainty. If you have no faith read this article and find out how you can get faith.
I am an avid reader of your blog and appreciate the way you “tell it like it is”. I recently finished the book The End of America and I am still in the process of evaluating the content with scripture. The author John Price presumes America is the Daughter of Bablyon spoke of over 200 times in prophecy and offers significiant scriptural support as well as specific hardship America has suffered when attempting to force Israel to give up land for peace. The Daughter of Babylon falls after it betrays Israel in scripture which he feels is the Ezekiel 38 battle. Israel will be at peace when attacked by Gog, how do you relate this to the conflict ongoing in the middle east and do you see there being peace in the middle east in the future if Israel will give up part of it’s land? Thank you for your post and I certainly recommend the book The End of America and would enjoy the insight you could offer in an future blog or article on some of the issues Mr. Price brings to light.
Hi Bryan,
Glad to have you on the blog.
I see no possibility that America is the daughter of Babylon any more than America is the daughter of Israel. I think scripture is quite clear that the daughter of Babylon is in the land of Shinar in Iraq on the River Euphrates.
Rather than give my reasons here again I will refer you to my Revelation Commentary which has an expanded section on Babylon and an analysis of all the major passages in scripture on Babylon.
http://www.thepropheticyears.com/The%20book%20of%20Revelation/Revelation%20Chapter%2018.htm
If you need to know the difference between the Babylon of chapter 17 and chapter 18 read chapter 17 of my commentary as well.
Israel will be at peace when Israel is attacked by God and there are many references to that on this Blog. In short the way I relate this to the ongoing conflict in the Middle East is that Israel will defeat the Arab nations around them in the war mentioned in Psalm 83 and then they have peace and security until Gog comes down with Russia, Iran and other distant nations. If you notice no nations near Israel are mentioned in the Gog war probably because they are occupied lands at the time and that is why Israel is living in security. For more information on this I suggest you read the theories of Bill Salus at Prophecy Depot. He wrote a book on this subject called Isralestine and I also did a review of that book on my website.

Hello Don;
I am not going to be dogmatic here, simply because none of us know exactly how prophesy will unfold. We know the outcome, but not the specifics. We know who the nations are, but only by their original ancient names, except for Israel. Whether America is Babylon the Great or not, I don’t know. I am suspicious though. I do not believe Revelation 17 pertains to America. Nor do I believe Revelation 17 is the same Babylon as that of Revelation 18. One major reason for this is that Satan destroys MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH while God supernaturally destroys Babylon the great of Revelation 18. Even the names are different. We cannot allow our ‘patriotism’ or love of country to dictate to us Americas role in prophesy. We must let The Holy Spirit do that for us, and to always pray for the truth, no matter how much it hurts. There is one verse that many overlook in Revelation 18, and that is Revelation 18: 23
Here it is:
Revelation 18:23 And the light of a candle shall shine no more at all in thee; and the voice of the bridegroom and of the bride shall be heard no more at all in thee: for thy merchants were the great men of the earth; for by thy sorceries were all nations deceived.
If the land of Shinar pertains to the land in Iraq, then we should expect to see and hear all these things in Rev. 18: 23 come out of Iraq? Who or what does the light of a candle pertain to? Who is the Voice of The Bridegroom and who is the bride? Can we expect to hear the voices of the Bridegroom and His bride come out of Iraq? Does Iraq have merchants who are “great men of the earth”, whereby ALL NATIONS were deceived?
As I stated earlier, none of us can be dogmatic, but as time goes by, we shall see who these Babylons are. I do find Revelation 18: 23 intriguing. What nation today has sent out more missionaries than any other country? What nation has more churches on every corner? What nation today has merchants who are great men of the earth deceiving all nations? This I know….It;s not Iraq.
Hi Frank you obviously did not read my Revelation commentary
http://www.thepropheticyears.com/The%20book%20of%20Revelation/Revelation%20Chapter%2018.htm
People in this nation that want to make America Babylon seem to assume that the prophecy about Babylon is written about today. The prophecy is likely to take place at least two decades in the future. The future of America even a decade down the road is not bright but the future of Iraq with all their oil is bright indeed. In fact experts say that in twenty years Iraq will be the number one oil producer on earth. Oil will then flow in tankers and with the money from oil they will buy all the world’s goods. But the pharmaceuticals deception mentioned is not the goods. The deception comes with the mysticism of Antichrist worship.
Having said that, Babylon is just the headquarters of the Beast but Babylon the Great also represents the the whole world government and economic system of Satan on earth that is found in every nation.
As to Revelation 18:23 the point of the passage is not the light of the candle or the voice of the bridegroom or the bride. It is that Babylon will cease and it will be a place of darkness and people will not dwell in the land anymore. What you ask is answered in Isaiah chapters 14 and 15
The whole context of this passage is in the end of the tribulation right before the restoration of Israel. Notice in the passage it says the Medes destroy Babylon. We know the Medes are people north of Iraq. The passage says Babylon is the beauty of the Chaldees. the Chaldeans lived in the land of Nebuchadnezzar, it is Iraq. Also it says the Arabian shall not pitch their tent there. Certainly it is not talking about the United States. Arabians surround Iraq but they will not pitch there tent in Iraq after its destruction. Also the passage tells us that Israel was captive in this land. Israel was never captive in the United States. The golden city will be the one built for the Antichrist. There are no golden cities in America. The one that ruled the nations in anger is the Antichrist. So just from this one passage, and there are many, we can see that Babylon is not America.
With all that in mind and understanding that the Beast/Antichrist will move his headquarters there and will be worshiped as God and a golden city will be built there for him. It is very understandable how Babylon the Great can be headquartered in Iraq.
We must not let patriotism cloud are view but we must not go to the other extreme either where we think everything is about America because she is not living as she ought. America is likely to fall before Babylon even rises.
Could the Voice of the Bridegroom and the Bride be talking about the removal of the knowledge of Jesus and the Church? Maybe, but when that happens the light and bride is removed from the whole world not just America. Nevertheless, in this passage the Church is long since removed so I do not think this passage is implying anything other than the land of Babylon will be a dead (perhaps radioactive) wildlife preserve for creatures that can live among burning tar pits..
I agree the end is near. I was in the UK last week doing some work. When I was out for drinks one night two of the people I know were telling me that since almost nobody goes to church anymore the churches are used as bars or apartments.
Hello Don,
I found your blog today via my Histats page. Someone did a search on “Obama birth place Bible code” and my site, as well as your blog popped up in the results. I read your “Rosemary’s Baby” post from Oct. 2009, then I came to your current page to see what you are writing about today.
This is an EXCELLENT post! I plan to be back to read many more of your topics when I have time. I have added your blog to my Christian Blogs List at Talk Wisdom.
I am currently re-reading Ed Hindson’s book on Revelation. I think it is one of the best!
Anyway, I am grateful to God that I found your blog! I know that I will learn a lot reading here! May God continue to bless you and your efforts to share the truth about Christ and the Bible to those who need to hear the message of the Gospel!
In Christ,
Christine
Hi Christine,
Glad you found the blog. Looks you have a good blog at “Talk Wisdom” I will it add it to my blog roll.
After you read Ed Hindson’s book on Revelation your might also read mine. His may be one of the best but mine covers certain things and brings up certain issues that I am sure are not in his. It also is a free on-line or off-line ebook.
http://www.thepropheticyears.com/The%20book%20of%20Revelation/index.htm
There are about 1200 posts on this blog with three times as many comments. Also Check out my website at http://www.thepropheticyears.com it contains many articles on Bible prophecy and biblical discernment.
Blessings in Christ,
Don
Don.
Excellent work in this article. I found this sentence particularly resonant: “The only nation that kept the world fairly stable since the Second World War now is projecting a great deal of instability to the rest of the world.” Bullseye!
Instability in geo-politics, finance and military alliances/relationships breeds war and wars breed all manner of just plain bad things. Wars also result in power vacuums that must be filled. I think this is what may happen to the USA if we don’t manage to survive the Obama Administration, perhaps even if we do. The power of ancient Rome shifted west to the US, but is bound to shift back to Europe. That’s that power vacuum at work.
Hi Don,
This was a great article. It feels like/appears/seems like he is almost an “antichrist appetizer” of sorts. It is all spinning out of control. The distancing from Britian is amazing, and the small steps turning against Israel is surreal. And now we will have the health care bill no matter what. It had to happen sometime, to some generation, right?
It’s scary, but to think that at just the right time….. well, at least we have that.
If Germany would have known the end results of the change that Hitler would bring to Germany they never would have elected Him. He just told many the lies they wanted to hear. There is nothing new under the sun. Obama could not have been elected if the people had they not already been brainwashed by the communists controlling media, education, and the social welfare gospel.
hey don I was wondering when is the time if ever that peaceful demonstrations and voting are not enough? I mean you can see that the liberals in power today in America do not care what the American people want or they would not be pushing the health care bill down our throats and finding ways around the rules. What’s to say they won’t do the same for amnesty for the illegal aliens? That is 20 million more votes to keep the liberals in power. As a Christian what is the right thing to do? I do not believe violence is the answer but let’s say if this group of thugs somehow manages to stay in power what else is left?
They will do the same for amnesty for illegal aliens. I actually just posted something on that this hour.
When government no longer response to the will of the people it is the right of the people of this nation to change it by whatever means required. Our Constitution says as much.
I think for a Christian the turning point of no longer supporting government is when government becomes a predator of its own people. But remember dire actions will bring dire consequences. Best that all citizens of this nation exhaust all peaceful means of change.
Also remember this is not our home we died in Christ, our job is to tell the world the good news about salvation in Jesus not to try to change governments. God is in control of the world and if he wants change he knows what instruments to use to bring change.
Also remember that the Bible told us these things would come in the last days so lets not be too shocked. Instead, we should know by these things that the time for us to work on earth is coming to an end and when that happens we are out of here.

There are hundreds of thousands of our brethren, just like me, who freely affirmed an oath to defend the U.S. Constitution against all enemies, foreign or DOMESTIC, so help us God. That oath is a lifelong committment confirmed by the blood of our fallen brothers in arms.
Repeated comments from DHS Secretary Janet Incompetano make it very clear that as a group we constitute their greatest fear. They should be losing a lot of sleep every single night due to this fear.
Sean,
You are correct, we have the responsibility, the duty, as citizens of this nation to keep this nation free. Also, as Christians we know that the gospel cannot be freely preached in nations that do not allow free speech. If that is not enough, we now see that the souls of our children are being destroyed in unconstitutional government controlled schools. Other examples of an out of control government are also becoming evident. So it is not Christian for good men to do nothing and just allow evil to take over society.
I took the oath to defend the Constitution several times as well. Citizens must defend their Constitution or they have a country founded on nothing. I defend the Constitution now mainly by trying to get out the truth with the hope that citizens will wake up and understand how our government has departed from our Constitution. I do this hoping that the people will make the corrections necessary to set things straight and get any domestic enemy perpetrators out of office. The last Constitutional means, remedy and duty is for the citizens of the United States to overthrow a out of control federal government. If we do nothing we probably deserve to live under tyranny.
I think we could do quite a bit to reign in Federal government abuses by just seeing to it that each of our fifty states (not fifty-seven, Berry) take back their constitutional sovereignty from the federal government and by requiring sheriffs of counties in police states to take back their primary law enforcement duties that they abdicated to state police.
Don,
I read the blog and the comments
The schools of the City of Chicago have purchased defensive weapons.
Cannot quote the type of long arm..
this just happened this March….
Don:
Your article hits the nail on the head. I could not agree more. With having my wife and two children, three and one and a half, I am sickened at what type of America they will live in, in lieu of the one I was raised in when we had pride (in what we did and who we were) and set the example for the rest of the world. Even though not perfect, at least it seemed like our nation cared. This is absent from present day society. I write and write and write to our “leaders” and my local government, to no avail. Our weakness will destroy us. I apologize for the rant. But I am as mad as I have ever been with our country and just to be honest, ashamed at what we have become. It sickens me. I pray nightly that my children will be godly children in this satanic world.
Again, thanks for hearing me out…didn’t mean to go off.
Have agood one and keep up the great work
