  WAR & RUMORS OF (NUCLEAR) WAR

  by You Know in

  a question for all to consider is: if pakistan and india go nuclear, as seems to becoming more likely by the day, how long will civilization be able to stay intact without completely unraveling, and during that interval will ridiculers be able to maintain the delusion that nothing out of the ordinary is happening in the world?

  somehow, I don't think the world financial system depends on the well-being of India and Pakistan, or even on the Middle East as a whole, or even on the reliability of the oil flow from that region

  You are apparently unaware of how fragile the system is. Nuclear war would absolutely panic the money boys. There is no way investors would leave billions of dollars on the table in the face of nuclear war. The markets would most likely collpase in a matter of hours.

  are the world's leaders likely to be saying "peace and security at last" immediately before such a tribulation? HAH. you are engaging in fantastic

  Do you really think apostates would have a clue as to how that prophecy is going to unfold?

  no one in their right mind suggests that the world will go on in a business-as-usual fashion if even one nuke is ever used again against human targets.

  Are you admitting that you are not in your right mind then?

  but is it likely that a single suitcase nuke would wind up on American soil, with America at its all-time greatest level of caution? HAH.

  "Unless Jehovah himself guards the city it is of no use that the sentry stands the watch."

  the nation was not "nearly brought to its knees." we were in shock at first, and then *immediately* the country pulled together to save what could be saved, begin the work of rebuilding, and stop such a thing from ever happening here again.

  i just spoke on the phone to amazing (jim whitney) who is in intensive care in a chicago hospital.

  on monday he had a major heart attack, had a stint put in an artery to unblock things and may have bypass surgery.

  he's comfortable enough right now, but of course will have to make some big lifestyle changes.

  So far the only nation on this planet that has dropped nuclear aresenal has been the U.S. ...and to my knowledge...errr, the world did stay intact and didn't unravel.

  The world was already in a state of war at that time and so the shock wasn't really the same as something out of the blue. Plus, Fat Man and Little Boy, as those bombs were called by the lunatics that dropped them, were mere firecrackers compared to the nukes that they have now. Plus, back then, there was no such thing as a global electronic financial system. Now, if one nation or even one large bank of hedge fund hiccups the rest of the world instantaneously responds. It is a much different world than existed in August 1945. / You Know

  DATELINE: BLACK ART OF PROPAGANDA

  by You Know in

  1. social
  2. current

  hardly anyone has an honest opinion about anything of importance that wasnt craftily pre-packaged and handed to them by someone else whose job it is to craft public opinion.

  the intention of the media is to present the illusion of impartially informing, all the while pandering to prejudice and ignorance in order to persuade to a particular point of view.

  datelines presentation of the watchtowers child abuse issue was a case study in the black art of media propaganda.. from the very beginning of the presentation dateline was intent on giving the public a negative impression of jehovahs witnesses by portraying us all as oddball crackpots whose religion revolves around the doctrine that we dont celebrate birthdays and that all non-believers are possessed by the devil and that we want them all to die.

  GET READY TO MEET YOUR GOD!

  by You Know in

  get ready to meet your god o israel, is no doubt a meaningless phrase to those who have no fear of god.

  those who in their presumptuousness imagine that there will not be a day when jehovah settles accounts with his people can only be described as faithless and apostate.

  but, for those who fear god the prospect of jehovahs impending judgment both fills one with dread and awe.

  Sure it has meaning, old man! It means you're puking up more self-loathing disguised as godly zeal.

  But two countries with limited nuke capabilites destroying the world?

  I am not talking about them directly destroying the world, they don't have that sort of firepower. I am talking about Western civilization coming unraveled becuase of the shock wave that would reverberate around the globe. You know, the financial system that's presently tottering on the edge of collapse?...the political system that holds things together....sort of? You don't honestly think that the world would go on in a business-as-usual fashion if millions of people are instantly obliterated on the Indian Sub-continent do you? A few months back a couple of planes slammed into the WTC and the Pentagon and it nearly brought the nation to it's knees. That was really nothing compared to nukes---the ultimate terror weapon. / You Know

  So what do you suppose he'll do if the new "spiritual nation" doesn't listen to his discipline? My guess is he's going to trash it like he did the Isrealites and drop it like a hot potato.

  There's no reason to make any sort of supposition or quess about what Jehovah's intentions are. The same prophecies that describe the issues that Jehovah has with his people also prescribe how he is going to rectify things. / You Know
