Rise Of The Fourth Reich

There have been many a pundit despairing of late about the European Union and it's apparent demise. I have never been one to write the Europeans off as a people that have collapsed under their own mischievous and perhaps Machiavellian tendencies to self destruct. On the contrary, I belong to a small camp of the political commentariet that actually thinks Europa will transfigure itself into something greater that what it is today.

That does not mean, however, that it will become a force for good or that good things will come of it. Like water that retreats from the shore before a tsunami hits so Europe too will fall back before the energy of its political force becomes a tidal wave upon the shores of the nations. And so, before it can become "greater" it will have to go through a period of diminution. It's quite obvious to everyone the EU cannot proceed in its current state. Something must give. As with the tsunami analogy above, an earthquake must precede the event that causes the tsunami. For the European Union, that earthquake is the current economic/political crisis that now serves as the locomotive for change.

From Der Spiegel:

To stabilize the continent in crisis Fischer, an avid European, wants to see a resolute political body consisting of the leaders of euro-zone countries. They should, he believes, be outfitted with far-reaching authority and granted sufficient power by their parliaments back home.Fischer is thinking about a rescue plan. Not just a rescue plan for the banks, for Italy or the euro, but for everything. He envisions a fire brigade of European Union government officials, and sees it as an "avant-garde of the United States of Europe."It is, in other words, time to stop complaining. Europe can only be saved if it is completely reinvented. The financial crisis is the turning point in the history of European unification.

We live in a socialist world. Every nation on earth today has embraced a collectivist form of government and ironically enough it was Europe that the nations turned to for answers and not the United States of America over the past century. Though the United States has influenced the world, it was to Europa, that the world sought knowledge and light for their advancement and technical prowess in military, political and economic spheres of power. Even the elites in America have turned towards Europe as the model for governing its 300 million citizenry with the socialist foundations laid by FDR and the Democrat Party since 1933. But not without controversy, it is to the United States that European political elites are reaching out to as the model to save the EU in the current economic crisis.

"Neither a Frankfurt group nor a troika, and certainly not the G-20, which answers to no one, should have the right to decide what Europe's citizens should pay for and how much they should save," says Ulrike Guérot, the fiery Berlin spokeswoman of the European Council on Foreign Relations, the international think tank to which Joschka Fischer also belongs. According to Guérot, such decisions ought to be made by a strong European executive branch, "supported by a parliament for the entire euro zone."

"We must invent and establish Europe a second time," says Sigmar Gabriel, the chairman of Germany's center-left Social Democrats (SPD). It's easy enough to say this from his standpoint as leader of the opposition. But many in Merkel's party, the center-right Christian Democratic Union (CDU), tend to agree -- they just don't talk openly about it. Officials at the Chancellery are also looking for concepts for the day when the crisis is over.

It's an opportunity to change the world. Why, for example, shouldn't it be possible for "the Europeans" to pull together, just as the 13 new American states did in 1787 for their constitutional convention? Then, too, the states were jostling for power and money. But, after a long struggle, they managed to constitute themselves -- under the motto "We the People" -- into a powerful, democratic, federal state that has endured to this day.

The Americans enshrined "the pursuit of happiness" in the Declaration of Independence. But is that any different than the European dream of peace, freedom and prosperity? Could the words "We the People," or "We Europeans," also be chiseled into the constitution of a European federal state one day?

The original founding of the United States was based upon a constitution with enumerated powers for the Federal Government as opposed to a constitution that enshrines plenary powers that is now being constructed in the European Union. The American federal government was a government limited to what it could do, whereas; the EU federal project envisions a government with massive and wide ranging control over every aspect of life in the union including but not limited to, economic, political and military affairs both domestic and foreign. Amazingly, there is a call for "more democracy" while the edifice of dictatorship is constructed in reality:

There is no lack of bold ideas. Charles Grant, founder of the Centre for European Reform, a London think tank, has come up with a vision for a democratically united Europe in which the citizens of the various member states vote directly for European commissioners -- replacing the present system whereby they are chosen by national governments behind closed doors. Grant's model sees the EU president selecting the 10 best of the 27 citizens' picks, with the remaining 17 becoming deputies. This concept would produce a strong and democratic European government.

The idea of a single, robust Brussels government for all EU countries -- or at least for the euro zone -- is also shaping plans promoted by certain groups within the European Parliament. And most agree that citizens in any future United States of Europe must have a stronger voice and Brussels have greater powers. Which would in turn mean a transfer of sovereignty from individual countries to the European Union. (Italicized mine)

We live in amazing and dangerous times as the storm clouds gather for the next great world war. Read the rest of the der Spiegel article and I think you'll get an idea why I believe that although the European Union may shrink, will actually grow stronger and become a force to be reckoned with as the United States withdraws from the world as the global cop enforcing a world ruled by the West.

Scripture Reading Of The Month

Colossians Chapter 2 ~

¹ I want you to know how hard I am contending for you and for those at Laodicea, and for all who have not met me personally. ² My goal is that they may be encouraged in heart and united in love, so that they may have the full riches of complete understanding, in order that they may know the mystery of God, namely, Christ, ³ in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.

⁴ I tell you this so that no one may deceive you by fine-sounding arguments. ⁵ For though I am absent from you in body, I am present with you in spirit and delight to see how disciplined you are and how firm your faith in Christ is.

Spiritual Fullness in Christ

 ⁶ So then, just as you received Christ Jesus as Lord, continue to live your lives in him, ⁷ rooted and built up in him, strengthened in the faith as you were taught, and overflowing with thankfulness.

 ⁸ See to it that no one takes you captive through hollow and deceptive philosophy, which depends on human tradition and the elemental spiritual forces^[a] of this world rather than on Christ.
 
 ⁹ For in Christ all the fullness of the Deity lives in bodily form, ¹⁰ and in Christ you have been brought to fullness. He is the head over every power and authority. ¹¹ In him you were also circumcised with a circumcision not performed by human hands. Your whole self ruled by the flesh^[b] was put off when you were circumcised by^[c] Christ, ¹² having been buried with him in baptism, in which you were also raised with him through your faith in the working of God, who raised him from the dead.
 
 ¹³ When you were dead in your sins and in the uncircumcision of your flesh, God made you^[d] alive with Christ. He forgave us all our sins, ¹⁴ having canceled the charge of our legal indebtedness, which stood against us and condemned us; he has taken it away, nailing it to the cross. ¹⁵ And having disarmed the powers and authorities, he made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them by the cross.^[e]

Freedom From Human Rules

 ¹⁶ Therefore do not let anyone judge you by what you eat or drink, or with regard to a religious festival, a New Moon celebration or a Sabbath day. ¹⁷ These are a shadow of the things that were to come; the reality, however, is found in Christ. ¹⁸ Do not let anyone who delights in false humility and the worship of angels disqualify you. Such a person also goes into great detail about what they have seen; they are puffed up with idle notions by their unspiritual mind. ¹⁹ They have lost connection with the head, from whom the whole body, supported and held together by its ligaments and sinews, grows as God causes it to grow.

 ²⁰ Since you died with Christ to the elemental spiritual forces of this world, why, as though you still belonged to the world, do you submit to its rules: ²¹ “Do not handle! Do not taste! Do not touch!”? ²² These rules, which have to do with things that are all destined to perish with use, are based on merely human commands and teachings. ²³ Such regulations indeed have an appearance of wisdom, with their self-imposed worship, their false humility and their harsh treatment of the body, but they lack any value in restraining sensual indulgence.

Mystery Of Iniquity

On Friday, July 22nd, a man executed a plan he apparently hatched some years ago and exploded a car bomb in the city center of Oslo, Norway. He then proceeded to a political organization's youth camp of the leftwing Labor Party of Norway, and murdered nearly 85 teenagers in one terrifying orgasm of violence not seen in Scandinavia since World War II. Anders Behring Breivik was the man the police managed to capture after his murderous rampage on the youth camp island of Utoya.

This tragic story unfortunately has been used by the leftwing media to paint a picture of a "right-wing" zealot with a crazed ambition to rid Europe of Moslems and Marxists beginning with a murderous attack on what he considered to be "traitors" in his midst. The moment this story broke I felt it was either a Moslem attack or a Leftwing attack in Norway. In no way could a "conservative" or "rightwinger" even concieve of carrying out a task this heinous and evil and still call himself a "freedom fighter". Yet, since Friday, the media have instantly jumped on the bandwagon after pushing it along and to paint the attack as a "blue eyed, blond haired, christian fundamentalist, conservative, rightwinger" who went haywire against his own country's liberal policies and lashed out the way he did. Naturally, the media, lectured us on how "to not jump to conclusions" about it being a "moslem attack" as if there is no precedence to come to such a conclusion.

The media have also told us that he wrote a manifesto of sorts (typical leftwinger/moslem) about what he was about to do and the reasons for it. Somehow they have managed to call him a "christian fundamentalist" when he himself says in the manifesto that he is not! World Net Daily has examined the manifesto more closely and clearly shows a man who does not believe in Christ and says so quite explicitly:

"Being a Christian can mean many things; That you believe in and want to protect Europe's Christian cultural heritage. The European cultural heritage, our norms (moral codes and social structures included), our traditions and our modern political systems are based on Christianity – Protestantism, Catholicism, Orthodox Christianity and the legacy of the European enlightenment (reason is the primary source and legitimacy for authority). It is not required that you have a personal relationship with God or Jesus in order to fight for our Christian cultural heritage and the European way. In many ways, our modern societies and European secularism is a result of European Christendom and the enlightenment. It is therefore essential to understand the difference between a 'Christian fundamentalist theocracy' (everything we do not want) and a secular European society based on our Christian cultural heritage (what we do want). So no, you don't need to have a personal relationship with God or Jesus to fight for our Christian cultural heritage. It is enough that you are a Christian-agnostic or a Christian atheist (an atheist who wants to preserve at least the basics of the European Christian cultural legacy (Christian holidays, Christmas and Easter)). The PCCTS, Knights Templar is therefore not a religious organisation [sic] but rather a Christian 'culturalist' military order."

I'm not sure how the leftwing media could possibly overlook this glaring admission by the Murderer of Utoya other than they are willfully clouding the waters to cover this man's clearly anti-Christian and anti-conservative acts. He clearly has not bowed his knee to Jesus Christ by his very own admission. Furthermore, this man obviously didn't mind a socialist Europe and socialist country because he apparently doesn't rail against socialism or collectivists policies which seems odd to me if he is a "conservative" or "rightwinger". I understand in Europe that being on the right has been so demonized by the Left that it is used as a pejorative to mean that you are a NAZI if you are "rightwing". Of course, if you know anything about the NAZIs or Fascists then you understand that these two systems of socialist/collectivist governance belongs on the leftward scale of politics. Anything construed by the Left as "nationalistic" is considered NAZI or Fascist which is unfortunate because the greatest communist of all, Joseph Stalin, was a nationalist when it suited the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics in the early 1920's and in World War II.

I actually think this man may have actually sought something far greater than merely to engender a "rightwing" revolt against a multicultural Europe. It is interesting to note what he says in his manifesto regarding the Protestant Churches in Europe:

"I trust that the future leadership of a European cultural conservative hegemony in Europe will ensure that the current Church leadership are replaced and the systems somewhat reformed..."We must have a Church leadership who supports a future Crusade with the intention of liberating the Balkans, Anatolia and creating three Christian states in the Middle East. Efforts should be made to facilitate the de-construction of the Protestant Church whose members should convert back to Catholicism. The Protestant Church had an important role once, but its original goals have been accomplished and have contributed to reform the Catholic Church as well. Europe should have a united Church lead [sic] by a just and non-suicidal pope who is willing to fight for the security of his subjects, especially in regards to Islamic atrocities." Italicized are mine.

What's interesting about his comment here is the very real erosion of the Protestant Churches in Europe and the future rise of an ecumenical religion that rises along with a future 10 Nation Confederation as outlined in the Book of Daniel and in the Book of Revelation. I believe the Catholic Church will someday be that religion that absorbs all of the other western religions (Protestant, Orthodox, Agnostic, Evolution) and rides a new political order in Europe to power. Per the book of Revelation this religious and political act of convenience ultimately destroys both the ecumenical religion in Europe and the 10 Nation Confederation paving the way for the worship of the Anti-Christ and the rise of the Fourth World Power with the Anti-Christ as its titular head per the book of Daniel.

Can we not agree that Anders Brievik's murderous rampage was so evil that it will go down as one of history's most notorious crimes? Is Anders acts of murder thus inspired not by "nationalistic, conservative, rightwing" notions of sovereignty and rule but the desire to please his master and usher in the Anti-Christ in his bloody sacrifice to his god, once the arch-angel over God's throne, Satan the Devil? Doesn't the murder of the young hearken back to man's darkest days when Satanic religious systems ruled the day in Europe before the advent and light of Christianity dispelled these evil systems of thought and works? Did Ander's perform this act knowing that he is "contributing" to bringing about the "Coming Man" of Sin?

"As for the Church and science, it is essential that science takes an undisputed precedence over biblical teachings. Europe has always been the cradle of science, and it must always continue to be that way. Regarding my personal relationship with God, I guess I'm not an excessively religious man. I am first and foremost a man of logic. However, I am a supporter of a monocultural Christian Europe."

Clearly, a "Christian Fundamentalist" would never allow science to take precedence over Bible Doctrine. Let it be known that his man will be judged by Jesus Christ at the Great White Throne and when his name is not found in the "registry of the righteous" also known as the Book of Life then he will spend eternity with his god in the Lake of Fire.

An Eerie Silence

There's a lot of things going on in the world that seems very troubling. Of course, there is always "something" that is troubling going on in the world at any one time. But this feeling that we are nearing an abyss of some sort is starting to become more manifest the more we look around. Are we experienceing the eerie silence of the calm before the storm?

Europe

There is an article from the Fiscal Times that counters the prevailing punditry regarding the EUROZONE and its eventual demise. They believe it could provide the impetus to form a more stronger union albeit at the expense of some other states within Europe. Really, the European Union is simply too big and too diverse to live up to its' reputation or should we call it misconception as being "united". The European Union has multiple sides that are pulling the EU in different directions.

One side has the weak Mediterranean countries such as Italy, Greece, Spain pulling down the more stronger northern nations of France, Germany and Britain. Then there is Portugal and Ireland that are economic basket cases. Iceland recently voted to not pay Britain back for monies they lost in Iceland's banking system. Of course, nearly all of Europe is exceeding the GDP ratio of debt to revenue percentages that continues to plague their trading bourses with the effect that we have a very skittish mercantile and financial class of professionals that is just itching to jump ship to a more financially safer harbor which unfortunately none are in sight.

Another side has a religious dimension rarely discussed: Catholic Europe verses the rest of Europe. Can Eastern Orthodox countries such as Greece, Romania and Bulgaria continue to coalesce around the more Catholic countries of Poland, Germany, France, Portugal, Belgium, Italy and Spain? Can the Church Of England continue to hold out against the Roman Catholic Church? Are the Protestant countries of Britain, Scandinavia and Northern Germany relevant any more to maintain their religious sovereignty against the ever encroaching Catholic Church?

Another side pulling the EU apart is massive and apparently unchecked immigration. How can Europe stay united when they are importing a slave caste of Africans, Arabs and Turks to work their more menial jobs? Even Denmark has decided to raise the border guards once again and check identity papers when someone crosses the Danish frontier much to the chagrin of the bureaucrats in Brussels. Greece has appealed for help from the EU border guard to keep its eastern gate secure (is there anything the Greeks can do besides capitulate?). Italy is taking on Libyan nationals fleeing the civil war down south. Then there is the existential problem of the European gypsies.

Another side pulling Europe apart is the sudden realization that Islam is not compatible with the European modus vivendi. Gert Wilders in the Netherlands was recently acquitted of fomenting religious hatred against Moslems for his defense of Dutch liberties which are antithetical to Islamic dogmas. Germany, Switzerland, France, and Italy have all passed legislation that is forcing the Moslem to either adapt to Europe or move back to their country of origin from whence they came.

All of these things are coming to a head in Europe with potential explosive consequences. And what happens if America decides to pull their military forces out of Germany, Italy and Britain? Something stinks in the state of the EU but we can't put our finger on it!

Middle East

The uprisings in countries that were nominal allies to Europe or to America has suddenly taken a more ominous turn. Dubbed the "Arab Spring" by the more optimistic among us, countries that were once aligned with the West are now being overthrown by their more servile populations as Twitter, Facebook and cell phones replace newspapers, radio and TV as the primary modes or nodes of information warfare. Egypt is the country that we must continue to watch. It is this country that may prove the most explosive as some have wisely suggested from Real Clear Politics that if Egypt is unable to feed its people then indeed all hell is going to break loose. Egypt also is the country that has the only peace treaty with Israel still in operation, albeit heavily gifted by the United States each year to the tune of 2 billion dollars per annum. Will Egypt continue to be paid off to be Israel's friend? Turkey is also a problem as they are embracing a more Islamic tradition that clearly is at odds with is Kemalist past at least since Ataturk disbanded the Caliphate after World War One. Then there is Afghanistan and Iraq that have been occupied by the United States since 2001 and 2003 that were on the receiving end of America's wrath following the 9/11 Terrorist attacks in America. Then there is Pakistan's duplicity in harboring the greatest terrorist in American history, Osama Bin Laden, from prying American eyes. Will we continue to play stupid with them or will they finally come out of the proverbial  Islamic Terror closet and truly embrace what they have become? India certainly thinks Pakistan has come out of the closet but the world looks away.

The so called Arab Spring, Libya, Egypt, Turkey, Pakistan's duplicity and the American War On Terror all are taking their toll on the Arab and Islamic mind. Something big is afoot that I can't quite pinpoint.

American Debt

If America can't pay its' debts then it will cut "discretionary" military spending before anything else is done. This of course will spell disaster for America's role as the global cop since World War II. If America goes home then the lights will go out throughout the world. Can you imagine South Korea without American Troops? Or Germany? Or Japan? And perhaps more ominously, Iraq or Afghanistan fighting the forces of Al Qaida or the Taliban without American military support? Gunna make Saigon in 1975 look like a cakewalk in comparison. Imagine what Germany or Britain will look like when there are no American military bases or troops to defend Western Europe. Sounds improbable? I don't know about you but I got this gut feeling that things are about to turn out for the worse.

These are all hunches with no empirical evidence to back them up. Only anecdotes come to mind. However, how many times has history turned on hunches? I have only touched on the more pressing feelings I have but there is always China's weakness that could surprise us as well especially if the hundreds of millions of Chinese rise up against the communist party. So with that I think I will end this segment with this: As the Chinese might say "We live in very interesting times".

Greetings

Welcome to the newly minted website for all things geopolitical. This is Xmarine part deu if you have followed my previous blog and if you haven't experienced the wonderful world according to Bruce then check out what I've written in the past, if you dare.

This website is going to focus on foreign policy, American or otherwise, in general and how it relates to bible prophecy. If you have studied the doctrine of dispensations, then you must know that anything goes in the age of the Church and though there are many prophecies in both the old and new testaments in the bible, we live in an era where prophecy is in stasis until such time that it is unlocked and proceeds forward.

When does the "unlocking" begin? Well, that is the mystery of the Church Age. The recall of God's ambassadors must proceed first before any additional prophecies may be fulfilled. The recall of his ambassadorial delegation on a global scale, if you'll indulge me, is the Resurrection of the Church, both dead and alive, which is the wholesale removal of all Saints on earth to Heaven in one vast and majestic sweep unseen by the naked eye and executed instantaneously. When does that begin? No one knows for sure, however I do have my suspicions, that the Resurrection of the Church begins when the world finally rejects en masse the demarche from Heaven.

What is the demarche from Heaven? For nearly 2000 years, ambassadors for Christ have gone forth to the four corners of the earth presenting their divine credentials as Saints and recruiting humanity from whole nations to individual citizens from Kings and Queens and to the poor and destitute. The Divine Demarche demands that you give up the citizenship you were born with on earth and accept citizenship in another "country" namely Heaven. Thus, in order to receive your "passport" you must give your allegiance to the King of Kings and Lord of Lords, who is Christ Jesus.

For two millennia this process of recruitment has proceeded slowly and unevenly but over time has flowed over the entire earth so that mankind is without excuse. However, the time seems to be closing for the recruitment of the Church and as time marches on then we'll see how the nations of the world are fast becoming the enemies of Christ. When the ambassadorial delegations are removed from earth by God then a state of war will exist between the citizens of Earth and the citizens of Heaven. The outcome of this dispute will not be in doubt, at least from the Saints perspective. When Christ returns he does so with the vast army of Saints he recruited previously in the Church Age. The defeat of Satan's forces, both human and inhuman, and the occupation of earth by Christ and his Saints are all outlined in both the old and new testaments in the Bible. We humans will either bow our knee to one of two sovereigns, either Christ or Satan, and we humans will share their fate or share in their spoils of war.

Behold, the future!
