World Poised on Brink of War: Korean Peninsula to Middle-East A Powder Keg Ready to Blow

We can’t say that Trump's decision to recognize Jerusalem as the capital of Israel stirred up the international community. Is it possible to stir up something that is already stirred up to its limit? Simple dances on a powder keg impress nobody.

Agitation and Propaganda. We can’t say that Trump's decision to recognize Jerusalem as the capital of Israel stirred up the international community. Is it possible to stir up something that is already stirred up to its limit? Simple dances on a powder keg impress nobody. The dancer desperately wants to have a smoke as well.

Protesters are starting fire to tires. They throw stones at Israeli soldiers, who periodically respond with grenades and tear gas, trying to disperse the crowd.

 

It feels like someone wants to provide everyone, both religious and non religious people, with a blessed fire before Easter. The question is only where and when.

"A number of Chinese media published memos for citizens with instructions for surviving after a nuclear strike. The state newspaper in the city of Jilin, located on the border with the DPRK, printed a center spread with advice that should help citizens survive the attack. With the help of comics, readers were reminded how to deal with radioactive contamination, wash off radiation from shoes, and provide medical assistance".

Can these funny pictures bring the reader from fantastic reality to the sinful land? It’s not clear. It’s clear, however, that the fun is gradually coming to an end.

"Hong Kong Internet portal HK01 reports that, according to internal documents of the state-owned company China Mobile, the administration of Changbai District on the border with the DPRK is thinking about the construction of five temporary shelters for refugees from the DPRK.

Against the backdrop of large-scale exercises conducted in the region by the United States and South Korea, it’s reported that the Chinese Air Force began maneuvers in the Yellow and South China Seas. The Chinese portal China Morning Post quotes Li Ji, a Chinese military expert: "This is a signal for Washington and Seoul that they should stop provoking Pyongyang."

Pyongyang seems to have also prepared for the worst. Rare shots seeping onto the Internet from the capital of the Juche state say as much.

Finally, China's unofficial position, which experts usually deduce from reading between the lines of the Global Times newspaper’s publications:

"Whatever the DPRK does, we mustn’t impose a complete trade embargo on it or completely break off economic ties. China isn’t obliged to help the US in implementing this absurd idea. The US has no right to give orders to China or to command in the UN Security Council. China’s ready for any development of events and is ready to use all its power to protect its interests. China owes nothing to anyone and other states should remember this".

But here is the problem. They don’t remember. Moreover, they believe that lively dances on a powder cellar deserve the most sincere applause.

Only the third Intifada is now needed for complete happiness. The more participants get involved, the better. Lebanon, Saudi Arabia, Iran, and Syria, that lies in ruins. And here, too, there are a lot of specialists in missile machinery and a lot of machinery, too. Only qualified doctors are missing. Most importantly, psychiatrists.

John Hagee, Pastor: "Today, Donald Trump recognized Jerusalem as the capital of Israel. This is a unique event in history. When I last spoke with President Trump, he told me he wouldn’t disappoint us, meaning our evangelist community. Trump did a courageous deed, which will be remembered forever, and Trump himself gained political immortality. This step will be glorified for many ages. God bless you".

God has already blessed pastor John Hagee, who heads the megachurch, Cornerstone, from the city of San Antonio. Its turnover is tens of millions of dollars. These are three TV companies, 62 transmitters, and 150 million potential viewers. Between sermons, the pastor acts as the Chairman of the Board of GETV, the global evangelical TV channel, and leads the Christians United for Israel, created by him.

All would be fine, but Hagee's outlook, and the outlook of far-right America that voted for Trump described in this book, Jerusalem Countdown, is reduced to the active expectation of World War III, during which all the unworthy will burn in the cleansing fire.

John Hagee:"We must consider the possibility of a preemptive strike against Iran in order to prevent a nuclear holocaust against Israel and a nuclear attack on America".

Hagee’s book will be especially interesting to our right conservative traditionalist. To those who drank champagne for Trump a year ago. After all, the mega-pastor proves, based on ancient propheсies, the imminent death of Russia, China, Iran, the DPRK and other countries that aren’t illuminated by the prophetic light.

You can say it’s nonsense. That it’s also comics. But after all, the story must look like a farce before turning into another tragedy. Mega-pastor Hagee is a collective hero. If he wasn’t here, he would have certainly been invented. Hagee is vital for corporations, banks, arms companies, armies, and special services.

Looking closer, we will find such mega-pastors everywhere. In the markets of the countries of the Islamic world, they shout "death to America!" In Israel, they divide citizens into Jews and non-Jews, depriving the latter of civil rights and human dignity. In Russia, they achieve repentance for the Soviet era and recognition of the murder of the royal family as a ritual. All these mega-pastors imagine God in different ways, but they are absolutely convinced that it's they and only they who represent him on earth.

They will never agree with each other. They’ll never go into the trenches first. But they won’t give away their right to preach even from a powder keg with a burning fuse.

Film frames: "The offspring of debauchery and vice! That's what cinema is! That's why I tell you, if your home is dear to you, drive out this wicked tempter!"
