Two Years Of Hell: Iraqi Christian Teenager Escapes ISIS And Tells His Story Of Captivity

For two years he and his mother were subject to constant abuse, horrific beatings, and being forced to watch death and murder around them, knowing they might be next. He was forced to publicly convert to Islam with his mother, but after the two escaped they returned to the Faith but not without the memories of what they had endured:<iframe class='youtube-player' type='text/html' width='640' height='390' src='http://www.youtube.com/embed/RTeok6kaR_w?version=3&rel=1&fs=1&autohide=2&showsearch=0&showinfo=1&iv_load_policy=1&wmode=transparent' allowfullscreen='true' style='border:0;'></iframe><blockquote>Ismail al-Kanon had been held captive for more than a year, and threatened with execution more times than he cared to remember. But this time was different.The people who held him, ISIS fighters, found in his possession a picture of Jesus and two small crosses. They took the items away, burned them, and told him he would be beheaded if they found any more.Ismail could tell they were serious this time. So he took his last cross — the only one they hadn’t found — and hid it very carefully in the back of a cable receiver box.“When I left it there, I told myself the cross is not just around the neck, it’s in the heart,” Ismail, 16, says.It was a small act of defiance — an attempt to retain a part of himself. It was also a symbol of hope. He was telling himself that one day he would be back to collect it. That he would survive.For two years, Ismail and his mother, Jandar Nasi, were captives of ISIS. More than most people living under the group’s rule, they had reason to expect that they would never escape.When ISIS fighters captured Mosul in the summer of 2014, they offered Christians a choice: either convert to Islam or pay a tax. Anyone who refused these options, they announced, “will have nothing but the sword.”For the roughly 100,000 Christians living in northern Iraq, the message was terrifying. Most fled to the relative safety of the semi-autonomous Kurdish region, along with tens of thousands of Muslims, Kurds and members of the Yazidi religious minority. But not everyone was able to escape.“We’re the only ones who stayed, everybody else left. We had no clue what had happened,” Ismail says.Ismail and Jandar are Chaldean Catholics, the leading Christian denomination in Iraq. They were living in Bartella, a Christian town east of Mosul. The town largely emptied when ISIS made its advance. Ismail’s mother was too sick to travel, so they hid in their home. When they emerged three days later, there was practically nobody in sight.They went to the main road, flagged down a car and asked to go to Erbil, the capital of the Kurdish region. They got as far as a checkpoint in Khazer, midway between Mosul and Erbil. It was manned by armed men with beards.“There were some men at a checkpoint. They asked me where I am from. I told one of them I was a Christian from Bartella. He ordered me to step out of the car and hit me on the head. He then tied my hands and took us to Mosul,” Ismail says. “That was the first time I saw ISIS.”He didn’t know it then, but that was the start of his two-year nightmare....They were fortunate to make it out alive. According to some church leaders in Iraq, more than 500 Christians were killed during the ISIS takeover of Mosul. John Kerry, the former US secretary of state, said ISIS “is responsible for genocide against groups in areas under its control including Yazidis, Christians and Shia Muslims.”But Ismail doesn’t feel lucky. His ordeal has taken a huge toll.“I’m mentally and physically tired,” he says.“My feelings towards ISIS are that I want to completely erase them. But at the same time our religion doesn’t promote cruelty. It says ‘Whoever hits you on the cheek offer him the other also.’”Before ISIS was kicked out of Ismail’s hometown of Bartella, they ransacked the churches, burning pews and smashing altars. (Watch our video of walking through one of the churches.)He thinks the cross that he hid is still where he left it. He had meant to go back to get it. Now, he is not so sure if he will.“I will leave Iraq,” he says. “It is ruined.”His mother nods silently in agreement.(<a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="https://www.pri.org/stories/2017-01-25/iraqi-christian-teenager-and-his-disabled-mom-barely-escaped-isis">source</a>, <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="http://www.christianpost.com/news/christian-teen-lived-2-years-under-isis-caliphate-and-survived-to-talk-about-it-173562/">source</a>)</blockquote>After all that he endured, certainly he does not want to return to Iraq, as what he once called home is clearly now destroyed.Recall that as we have been saying, ISIS and the entire Muslim "refugee crisis" only exists because certain "leaders in government and business have allowed this- it is because of certain people in the West who, obsessed with power and control, literally would commit genocide in order to achieve their ends.This is one of many faces and stories of the cost of that lust for power. His people and home are gone. All that he has left are memories- horrible memories, which he will never forget.<iframe class='youtube-player' type='text/html' width='640' height='390' src='http://www.youtube.com/embed/LQUXuQ6Zd9w?version=3&rel=1&fs=1&autohide=2&showsearch=0&showinfo=1&iv_load_policy=1&wmode=transparent' allowfullscreen='true' style='border:0;'></iframe>

As we read in <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2017/01/27/trump-to-order-pentagon-to-hit-isis-harder-report-says.html">one report:</a><blockquote>White House officials are drafting a presidential directive from President Trump that calls on his newly appointed defense secretary to take a more aggressive approach to attacking ISIS fighters in Syria.The New York Times reported Thursday that Trump is expected to make his first visit to the Pentagon Friday and will call on Secretary James Mattis to present new  options within 30 days.The report said the options may include expanding the use of Special Forces. Trump told ABC on Wednesday that he is for safe zones in Syria.Speaking about the terrorist group ISIS in an interview Thursday, President Donald Trump called the group’s fighters “sneaky, dirty rats.”“We have evil that lurks around the corner without the uniforms,” he told Fox News’ Sean Hannity. “Ours is harder because the people we’re going against they don’t wear uniforms. They’re sneaky, dirty rats and they blow people up in a shopping center and they blow people up in a church.”Maj. Gen. Joseph Martin, commanding general of the 1st Infantry Division, said he has not received any change to his orders in prosecuting the ISIS war in Iraq and Syria. When asked if the military could do more to stop the terrorists, he responded, "Our role is where it needs to be right now."Martin said there was a "significantly higher" operational tempo in the fight for the terror group's Iraq stronghold of Mosul. However, it started late last year when Iraqi forces supported by U.S. airpower started pushing ISIS out of many of their fortifications in the city, after a new offensive was launched. The operation to retake Mosul started more than three months ago.Pentagon officials, earlier this week, told Fox News it was still too early for Mattis, known as “Mad Dog” to recommend any changes to the ISIS fight as he gets ramped up in his new role.The military's airtrike campaign was operating under standard orders from the Obama administration, Martin said.</blockquote>

Muslim Terrorists Break Into Christian Family's Home, Grab The Wife And Take Turns Raping Her

Muslim terrorists in Pakistan broke into a Christian family's home, they grabbed the wife and took turns raping her. According to <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="http://www.pakistanchristianpost.com/detail.php?hnewsid=6282">one Pakistani report:</a><blockquote>The influential Muslim named Mohammad Din along with three others entered forcibly in home of Christian woman when her husband has on work and gang raped her with threats to leave their family property which was adjacent to home of culprits in a village Bahadur Pura in District Kasur of Punjab province of Pakistan.Mr. Rehmat Masih aged 70, father of victim of gang rape knocked every door for justice to lodge report against Muslim rapists but due to their influence and contact in government none was ready to register case against them.The village Bahadar Pura is situated on main road of Dipal Pur in District Kasur in which more than ten thousand Muslims and three hundred Christians were living side by side from decades. This village is built on Federal land and illegally occupied by all residents who sell and buy land of homes on PT-1 forms. The Muslims of this village own agriculture land and other businesses while Christian for them in farms or perform other laborer duties.On January 23, 2017, when Christian gang rape victim (withholding her name due to privacy) was sleeping in home with her 4 children and her father Rehmat Masih early morning after leaving her husband to work she saw smoke in left corner of room. The elder daughter of rape victim cried fire fire after seeing flames and ran out of room but Rehmat Masih was unable to run out. The Christian family started shouting to safe Rehmat Masih but when people reached for rescue until then Rehmat Masih legs and hands were burnt.The local people shifted Rehmat Masih to District Headquarter Hospital Kasur for treatment but he was denied and medical support without report of police as it was legal case.When news of attempt to burn alive poor Christian family spread among Christians, Mr. Khalid Shahzad approached the victim family and contacted DPO Kasur Mr. Ali Nasir Rizvi who ordered to register case against Muslim culprits and admit Rehmat Masih for treatment.Talking with Pakistan Christian Post, Human Right Activist and Christian leader Khalid Shahzad said that Mohammad Ahmad Din and his children purchased piece of residential land from Rahmat Masih,s nephew at low price in 2014. They built 4 rooms home which is in neighbor of Rahmat Masih. Last year in June Basharat Ali son of Ahmad Din asked Rahmat Masih to sell his house but he refused. In August 2016, Bashart Ali again pressured Rahmat Masih to sell home but he refused on which Basharat Ali got angry and threatened him for life and dire consequences. In October 2016, Mohammad Basharat Ali along with 3 of his friends entered in home of Rehmat Masih and gang raped her daughter to teach him lesson.With intervene of high officials, the police registered a case under FIR # 70/17 with 436/427/380/354/506 in Saddar Police Station Kasur but Mohammad Basharat using his influence got interim bail before arrest and walked free mocking justice.</blockquote>

Christian Pastor Gets Kidnapped In Mexico, And Has Now Been Found Dead

A Christian pastor was went missing in Mexico, was found dead this month. The murders of priests has been on the rise on account of the rise of power of drug cartels in Mexico. The name of the priest was Joaquín Hernández Sifuentes, and here is the photo of this martyr:<a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/Joaquin-Hernandez-Sifuentes-702x468-1.jpg"><img alt="" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-108152" height="468" sizes="(max-width: 702px) 100vw, 702px" src="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/Joaquin-Hernandez-Sifuentes-702x468-1.jpg" srcset="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/Joaquin-Hernandez-Sifuentes-702x468-1.jpg 702w, http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/Joaquin-Hernandez-Sifuentes-702x468-1-300x200.jpg 300w" width="702" /></a> Until recently, the media was talking about Syria and Iraq, how Christians were being slaughtered in these lands by Islamists. But there was such little attention focusing on priests being butchered, not in the Near East, but right across the border, in Mexico. Attention on Christian persecution in the Middle East has declined quickly, and yet still, the indifference towards the martyrs of Mexico has not been altered at all. As we read in <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="http://www.catholicnewsagency.com/news/missing-priest-in-mexico-found-dead-65535/">one report:</a><blockquote>The body of Father Joaquín Hernández Sifuentes, a priest in northern Mexico who had been missing since Jan. 3, was found on Thursday, his diocese announced.“We confirm with profound sadness that our brother Joaquín Hernández Sifuentes, a diocesan priest for whom we tirelessly searched, with the great hope of finding him alive, has gone on to the house of the eternal Father. This afternoon the authorities reported he was found dead,” read a Jan. 12 statement from the Diocese of Saltillo.The priest, who served at Sacred Heart parish in Saltillo's Aurora neighborhood, had not been seen since Jan. 3. The diocese reported his disappearance Jan. 7 to the attorney general's office of the state of Coahuila.One of his friends, Friar Víctor Sifuentes Méndez, went to Fr. Hernández' rectory Jan. 3 and found the priest's room in disorder, which was atypical for him. The friar returned to the rectory Jan. 5, and amid the mess noticed Fr. Hernández' suitcase and glasses. Missing were his car, mobile phone, tablet, and computer. Additionally, a neighbor saw two men “getting into the priest's car” Jan. 3 and leaving in the vehicle.Fr. Hernandez' body was found in Parras de la Fuente, a town 90 miles west of Saltillo, and a homicide investigation has been opened. Two persons have reportedly been detained in connection with the murder.The priest's car, meanwhile, a white Volkswagen Derby, was found in Santa Catarina, nearly 45 miles northeast of Saltillo, according to La Jornada, a Mexican daily.The Saltillo diocese's statement recalled Fr. Hernández as someone “who sought perfection in whatever activity he was undertaking,” and that the closeness of the people with him “is reflected in the love that the parishioners demonstrated, including these last ten days.”“In Joaquín, they have also taken from us a brother and a son. Rest in peace, Father Joaquín Hernández Sifuentes,” the statement concluded.The Mexican bishops' conference also expressed their condolences and assured in a statement that “evil will not conquer and death is not the end of the message of love and hope that Our Lord Jesus Christ brought, which  Father Joaquín embodied in his ministerial life.”“We ask God for his eternal rest and we also ask the Lord to grant his relatives and friends strength, hope and the consolation of faith,” the bishops said.The wake for Fr. Hernández will be held Jan. 15 in the chapel of the diocesan seminary, and his funeral Mass will be said the following day at the Saltillo cathedral.Fr. Hernández was ordained a priest in 2004 at the age of 30. He had served in Castaños and Monclova before being transferred to Saltillo in 2013.Drug trafficking has led to increased murder and kidnapping in Mexico, with priests not unaffected. In the last four years, 16 priests in the country have been murdered. In September 2016, the bodies of three kidnapped priests were found, in the states of Michoacan and Veracruz.</blockquote>Mexico has become a land filled with horrors, in some regard, worse than Syria. The violence and ruthlessness of the cartels is so sanguinary, cruel and brutal, that it looks like Mexico is about to break out into civil war. To fully understand the horrors of Mexico, I made a very in depth and detailed documentary on Mexico, called Hell Across the Border. Watch it today, learn from it and show it to everyone you know!<iframe src="http://shoebattube.com/player/embed_player.php?vid=1182&width=660&height=440&autoplay=no" width="660" height="440" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>

We Are About To Enter A New World War, Christians Are Going To Suffer The Most Horrific Persecution, Humanity Is About To Enter Its Darkest Moment, A Great Cloud Of Evil Will Flood The Earth, And It Will Create An Ocean Of Blood And Death

<a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/ww3-copy-2.jpg"><img alt="" class="aligncenter wp-image-108143" height="569" sizes="(max-width: 1030px) 100vw, 1030px" src="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/ww3-copy-2.jpg" srcset="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/ww3-copy-2.jpg 800w, http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/ww3-copy-2-300x166.jpg 300w, http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/ww3-copy-2-768x424.jpg 768w" width="1030" /></a>By Theodore Shoebat“I do insist,” Hitler once said, “on the certainty that sooner or later — once we hold power — Christianity will be overcome and the German church established. Yes, the German church, without a Pope and without the Bible, and Luther, if he could be with us, would give us his blessing.” In these words, we see the ideological link between Luther's revolution and Nazi thought. In the uprising of Germany, be it in the First World War or the Second World War, we see Luther at the heart of the ideological aspiration of imperialism, Darwinism, and the desire to exterminate and conquer one's enemies. If Germany ever rises again as an enemy of humanity, Luther will be at the center its despotic reign of terror. The biggest barrier between denying and believing that fascism can reemerge and take power in the world, is the idea that it can't happen again in our own times; it is the assumption that we, because of all of our innovations and nuances, are somehow distinct from those who lived before us.We live our lives reacting to the sudden occurrences to the world, as opposed to thinking and addressing as to why they happen, and who are behind them, and for what agenda. After the Second World War, a world order was established for the purpose of preventing something like it happening again. The biggest systems of this order are NATO and the EU, but now, because of dramatic changes in political climate, happening on account of mass immigration and economic predicaments, the world order established after World War Two, is fragmenting. With the disintegration of the world order, will come new unions, and new alliances formed under militaristic and expansionist aspirations. In this in depth study, we will delve into how the current political climate is leading the world back to the despotism of the past, and the roots of the ideologies of ultra-nationalism, and how protestantism gave birth to Nazi thought and Social-Darwinism, and how eugenics influenced the Ottoman Empire in its massacre of the Armenians. CHAPTER ONE THE FALL OF THE EUDELIBERATE CHAOS FOR THE PURPOSE OF TYRANNY Donald Trump just recently expressed his indifference on the breakdown of the EU, saying: "I don’t really care whether it’s separate or together. To me, it doesn’t matter.”Donald Trump even made the prediction that more countries are going to be severing themselves from the European Union. According to Anthony L. Gardner, the US Ambassador to the EU, Trump aids even made phone calls to several European institutions, asking them on which European nations were next in going down the road of Brexit.  Gardener affirmed that for Trump to encourage the disintegration of the EU is  “sheer folly” and “lunacy”.  Trump, in an interview, <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="http://www.latimes.com/world/la-fg-trump-europe-20170117-story.html">stated</a>:<blockquote>“If refugees keep pouring into different parts of Europe, I think it’s gonna be very hard to keep it together cause people are angry about it...  Personally, I don’t think it matters much for the United States. I never thought it mattered.… I don’t really care whether it’s separate or together. To me, it doesn’t matter.”</blockquote>But, this was part of the plan all along behind the immigration crises. The officials of the EU knew very well the consequences that would transpire behind bringing in millions of people from the Islamic world; they knew very well that it would lead to terrorism, and to Nazis capitalizing on the situation to leverage support and establish influence. They also knew very well, that with terrorism comes a justification to increase government power, advance military capacity, and commence arms races within Europe. This observation was in fact affirmed by a report made by AIG back in 2008. It was written by economist Bernard Connolly, a global strategist for Banque AIG and AIG Trading, who worked in the Industrial Trends and Forecasting Unit of the Confederation of British Industry, and who worked for years for the European Commission in Brussels, where he was head of the unit responsible for the European Monetary System and monetary policies. In the report, entitled <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="https://www.scribd.com/document/271676558/Bernard-Connolly-Europe#download&from_embed">Europe – Driver or Driven?</a>, Connolly presented a bullet point list of objectives in which he wrote: "Europe Wants... terrorism: use excuse for greater control over police and judicial issues; increase extent of surveillance", and here is the page of the actual report:<a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/eu-r-copy-1.jpg"><img alt="" class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-107946" height="740" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" src="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/eu-r-copy-1-1024x740.jpg" srcset="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/eu-r-copy-1-1024x740.jpg 1024w, http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/eu-r-copy-1-300x217.jpg 300w, http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/eu-r-copy-1-768x555.jpg 768w" width="1024" /></a>What the report revealed was that the financial crises in the EU, alongside the predicament of terrorism, was deliberately allowed and designed, all for the purpose of power.  Lord Mervyne King, the former Chief of the Bank of England, revealed in an article published last year, that the economic crises in the EU was deliberately done by European elites. He wrote:<blockquote>"I never imagined that we would ever again in an industrialised country have a depression deeper than the United States experienced in the 1930s and that's what's happened in Greece....It is appalling and it has happened almost as a deliberate act of policy which makes it even worse". </blockquote>For years Great Britain had impeded the creation of a unified EU army, but after Brexit, the enterprise was completely possible. <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/european-parliament-nato-backs-plans-create-defence-union-a7432706.html">In November of last year</a>, the EU Parliament voted on whether or not to allow an EU military force. An overwhelming majority of 369 parliamentarians voted in favor for the creation of an EU military force, with 255 voting against it. This would not have been unlikely with Great Britain still in the EU. What this reveals is that the EU officials who have been seeking the creation of an EU military force, wanted Brexit to happen, and thus they want to ultimately see the further fragmentation of the EU.  Using dangerous people or conducting some sort of action in order to spark a specific reaction, is nothing new in German history. During the First World War, Germany financed and facilitated the Bolshevik takeover of Russia. Or, in the words of historian, David Fromkin:<blockquote>"To drive Russia out of the war, the German government financed Lenin's Bolshevik communists, and introduced Lenin himself into Russia in 1917 -- in Winston Churchill's words, 'in the same way that you might send a phial containing a culture of typhoid or of cholera to be poured into the water supply of a great city.'"

In this meeting, the Germans demanded for a huge chunk of the former Russian empire of the now murdered Czar, a demand that the Bolsheviks would acquiesce to without any serious resistance. In the same meeting, Turkey demanded Armenia, which had been under Russian rule. This demand, as well, was satisfied. The Ottomans began their brutal slaughter of the Armenian population, and it was because of Germany's support for the Bolshevik take over of Russia, and its role in commencing the meeting in Brest. The Germans, in order to supposedly make sure that Turkey did not get too sanguinary, commissioned General Hans von Seeckt, the future leader of the Weimar Republic's Reichswehr, to be an observer on the Caucasus front line. But Seeckt didn't do anything to help the Armenians. On the contrary, he supported the genocide of the Armenians that was conducted by the Young Turks, writing to Berlin in July of 1918:<blockquote> "It is an impossible state of affairs to be allied with the Turks and to stand up for the Armenians. In my view, any consideration, Christian, sentimental or political, must be eclipsed by its clear necessity for the war effort." (2) </blockquote><div id="attachment_107962" style="width: 417px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/GERseeckt.jpg"><img alt="" class=" wp-image-107962" height="612" sizes="(max-width: 407px) 100vw, 407px" src="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/GERseeckt.jpg" srcset="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/GERseeckt.jpg 319w, http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/GERseeckt-199x300.jpg 199w" width="407" /></a>General Hans von Seeckt</div>Seeckt supported the Social Darwinist Young Turks who, after taking control of the Ottoman regime, sought to secularize and modernize Turkey as a way to advance the empire into a more formidable force. (3) The Germans used the Ottoman's massacring of the Armenians to take control of Georgia. The Georgians, seeing the horrors being inflicted upon their Armenian neighbors, were terrified that they too would suffer the same ruthlessness of Ottoman imperialism. Germany told the Georgians that if they would allow Germany to control their country, that that would protect them from the Turkish warpath. The Georgians accepted without hesitation, with a Georgian delegation telling the Armenians that "we cannot drown with you ... Our people want to save what they can. You too are obligated to seek an avenue for agreement with the Turks. There is no other way." (4) The Armenians were essentially human sacrifices for German imperialism. The Germans helped enable Turkey to control Armenia and slaughter the Christian inhabitants, and used the massacres to instill fear into the Georgians so as to make them give Germany control over their nation. The same nation that would do the Holocaust, contributed significantly to the first genocide of the twentieth century: the Armenian Genocide. If the Germans did such evils in the twentieth century, what makes us think that they are not working on a violent comeback in the twenty-first century? If they could use the Marxists and the holocaust of the Armenians to fulfill their expansionist aspirations, then what makes us think that the same evil intention is not behind the immigration crises? The Germans have a history of using crimes — or making up stories about them — to justify military expansion. Neither the Germans nor the Austrians cared whether or not the Serbian government was responsible for the assassination of the Archduke Ferdinand and his wife, but they surely used it to start a war in the Balkans, and escalated it into a full on war in the rest of Europe, in the First World War in 1914. The idea behind attacking Serbia was to provoke Russia into intervening, so that Germany would have a justification to war against the Russians.  Germany was, in fact, waiting and hoping, that Russia would mobilize its troops into the Balkans, so that Germany could create the propaganda that it needed to energize its people for war. Before even the Russians deployed their troops, the Germans were already thirsting for war and conquest. The Germans wanted enemies. They were even upset when they noticed that France and England were not interested in a war with Germany, with Moltke expressing this frustration. “The final straw,” Moltke exploded, “would be if Russia now also fell away.” Germany did not want to be deprived of enemies; for without enemies, there was no justification for war.

He pushed the Austrians pursue dialogues with the Russians, in order to appear as though Germany and Austro-Hungary were the wanters of peace. Bethmann told his ambassador in Austria: <blockquote>“In order to prevent general catastrophe, or at any rate put Russia in the wrong, we must urgently advise that Vienna should initiate and pursue conversations.” (6)</blockquote>Bethmann told Austro-Hungary’s Imperial Foreign Minister, Count Leopold Berchtold, to even falsely seek peace with Russia, otherwise, in his own words, “It would hardly be possible any longer to place the guilt of the outbreak of a European war on Russia’s shoulders.” He added that if “Vienna declines everything, Vienna will be giving documentary evidence that it absolutely wants a war … while Russia remains free of responsibility. That would place us, in the eyes of our own people, in an untenable position.”    <div id="attachment_107964" style="width: 598px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/ba009882.jpg"><img alt="" class=" wp-image-107964" height="793" sizes="(max-width: 588px) 100vw, 588px" src="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/ba009882-759x1024.jpg" srcset="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/ba009882-759x1024.jpg 759w, http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/ba009882-222x300.jpg 222w, http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/ba009882-768x1036.jpg 768w, http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/ba009882.jpg 1024w" width="588" /></a>Theobald von Bethmann-Hollweg</div>Likewise, the Germans needed an excuse to invade France through Luxembourg. The Germans claimed that French troops were occupying Luxembourg. Germany, claiming to be defending Luxembourg, invaded it, with German invasion forces sending out this proclamation: “Since France, without regard to the neutrality of Luxemburg, has opened hostilities against Germany from Luxemburg territory,” German forces had decided to do the same against France. But the Luxembourg government rejected this claim of Germany, saying in a statement: “There is absolutely not a single French soldier in Luxemburg territory.” (7) But this did not stop the Germans. They wanted their excuse, and once it was made, they conquered.  <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/evening_world_aug_1_1914.jpg"><img alt="" class="aligncenter wp-image-107965" height="449" sizes="(max-width: 668px) 100vw, 668px" src="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/evening_world_aug_1_1914.jpg" srcset="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/evening_world_aug_1_1914.jpg 640w, http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/evening_world_aug_1_1914-300x202.jpg 300w" width="668" /></a><div id="attachment_107966" style="width: 790px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/war.jpg"><img alt="" class="size-full wp-image-107966" height="619" sizes="(max-width: 780px) 100vw, 780px" src="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/war.jpg" srcset="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/war.jpg 780w, http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/war-300x238.jpg 300w, http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/war-768x609.jpg 768w" width="780" /></a>German soldiers of the Infantry Regiment 106 with gas masks in a trench on the Western Front during WWI, 1915</div>  The German people, alongside political parties, the labor unions and the press, had been fooled into thinking that it was Russia who started the war. One German diarist, the chief of the Kaiser’s naval staff, wrote in glee of the success of German propaganda on the public: “The mood is brilliant. The government has managed brilliantly to make us appear as the attacked.” (8)If the Germans were able to scheme up all sorts of scenarios to make things seem to be what they weren’t, it is not adventuresome to observe that Germany is doing the same with the so-called migrant crises. Interestingly, as Germany blamed Russia and France for its own aggressions, Germany now wants to blame Russian and Greece for the migration crises. <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="http://www.balkanalysis.com/greece/2016/03/07/exclusive-germanys-bnd-investigating-migration-risks-and-russian-influence-in-greece/">One report </a>has shown how the German Federal Intelligence Service (BND) has conducted investigations “to provide intelligence that Merkel can use to shift the blame over her own catastrophic migration policy onto Russia and Greece.” The political climate in Germany is changing to a degree in which popular politicians and intellectuals are promoting a revival of militarism, as well as an anger towards remembering the Holocaust, under the guise of fighting terrorism and mass migration. For example, just recently, the German politician, Bjorn Hocke, bashed the placement of the Holocaust Memorial in Berlin, <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/germany-afd-bjoern-hoecke-berlin-holocaust-memorial-shame-history-positive-nazi-180-turnaround-a7535306.html">telling</a> a crowd of his supporters that “Germans are the only people in the world who plant a monument of shame in the heart of the capital,” and <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="http://www.breitbart.com/london/2017/01/18/outrage-german-populists-call-end-nazi-guilt-culture/">that</a> “We need nothing less than a 180-degree shift in the politics of remembrance” to which he received an applause from his listeners. "This laughable policy of coming to terms with the past is crippling us,” said Hocke, who also said: "There were no German victims any more, only German perpetrators," expressing his warped view that  the media makes it out to be that the Germans who died in the bombing of Dresden are never portrayed as victims. <div id="attachment_107967" style="width: 759px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/bjorn-copy.jpg"><img alt="" class=" wp-image-107967" height="603" sizes="(max-width: 749px) 100vw, 749px" src="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/bjorn-copy-1024x825.jpg" srcset="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/bjorn-copy-1024x825.jpg 1024w, http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/bjorn-copy-300x242.jpg 300w, http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/bjorn-copy-768x619.jpg 768w, http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/bjorn-copy.jpg 1298w" width="749" /></a>Bjorn Hocke</div>In 2013, German intellectual Jochen Bittner, wrote an article for the New York Times, entitled <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="http://www.nytimes.com/2013/11/05/opinion/bittner-rethinking-german-pacifism.html">Rethinking German Pacifism</a>, in which he openly pushed for a revival of militarism in his country, albeit he of course writes numerous modern requalifications.

The re-education efforts worked far too well on the Germans after 1945.” Even if the Trump administration does not follow through in diminishing NATO (since Trump said that NATO “was obsolete”), Germany is increasing its military capacity, and NATO allies appear to be quite okay with that. <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="https://www.nytimes.com/2016/06/06/world/europe/european-union-germany-army.html?_r=0">A report last year</a> showed that Germany’s plans to install 7,000 soldiers into its military by 2023, and to spend $148 billion on new equipment by 2030, “were  warmly welcomed by NATO allies.” Germany is returning back to militarism, and the United States will allow it to grow further. When Trump said that NATO “countries that we're protecting have to pay what they're supposed to be paying”, he was merely expressing a position that is consistent with the policy of United States government. Obama, while not being as explicit as Trump, <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="https://www.whitehouse.gov/the-press-office/2016/04/25/remarks-president-obama-address-people-europe">made a statement last year</a> that essentially agreed with Trump’s position:<blockquote> “I’ll be honest, sometimes Europe has been complacent about its own defense.” </blockquote>In 2015, Steven Erlanger, reporting for the New York Times, wrote:<blockquote>“There will be pressure from the United States for NATO members to live up to their pledge to spend 2 percent of gross domestic product on defense, as Britain finally agreed to do this year [2015].” (9) </blockquote><div id="attachment_107969" style="width: 704px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/b5666c28896da209f1119431cff11d39.jpg"><img alt="" class=" wp-image-107969" height="514" sizes="(max-width: 694px) 100vw, 694px" src="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/b5666c28896da209f1119431cff11d39.jpg" srcset="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/b5666c28896da209f1119431cff11d39.jpg 639w, http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/b5666c28896da209f1119431cff11d39-300x222.jpg 300w" width="694" /></a>German soldiers in a night procession</div>This is exactly what the US is doing now, as is reflective in the words of Obama, and the newly sworn-in President Trump.

Bush was president. According to US Army General Wesley Clark, in 1991, Paul Wolfowitz told him that the US had 5-10 years to “clean up those old Soviet client regimes, Syria, Iran, Iraq, before the next great superpower comes on to challenge us.” Clinton was president when this plan was being discussed, and when Bush was in office, Saddam was toppled. Under Obama, Gaddafi and Mubarak were taken out, and the Assad regime was greatly diminished. Again, the change of presidency did not alter policy. Although it seems that Trump’s administration — as opposed to Obama’s — will warm up to the Assad regime, the general whom he picked to be the US Defense Secretary, Mattis, has a differing opinion in regards to Syria’s leader. <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="http://www.thenational.ae/world/middle-east/trump-faces-balancing-act-over-iran-and-russia#page1">To Mattis</a>, the toppling of Al Assad would be "the biggest strategic setback for Iran in 25 years”. <div id="attachment_107970" style="width: 783px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/694940094001_5232172441001_Peters-Why-Mattis-would-be-a-great-secretary-of-defense.jpg"><img alt="" class=" wp-image-107970" height="435" sizes="(max-width: 773px) 100vw, 773px" src="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/694940094001_5232172441001_Peters-Why-Mattis-would-be-a-great-secretary-of-defense.jpg" srcset="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/694940094001_5232172441001_Peters-Why-Mattis-would-be-a-great-secretary-of-defense.jpg 643w, http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/694940094001_5232172441001_Peters-Why-Mattis-would-be-a-great-secretary-of-defense-300x169.jpg 300w" width="773" /></a>General James Mattis</div>And to Trump’s National Security Advisor, General Michael T.

The Italian admiral, Giampaolo di Paola, who once served as Chairman of the NATO Military Committee, once said regarding the purpose of NATO:<blockquote>“At its origin, the organization’s goal, as famously stated by Lord Ismay, the first NATO Secretary General, was ‘to keep the Russians out, the Americans in and the Germans down.” (10)</blockquote><div id="attachment_107976" style="width: 1034px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/Giampaolo-Di-Paola.jpg"><img class="wp-image-107976 size-large" height="658" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" src="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/Giampaolo-Di-Paola-1024x658.jpg" srcset="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/Giampaolo-Di-Paola-1024x658.jpg 1024w, http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/Giampaolo-Di-Paola-300x193.jpg 300w, http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/Giampaolo-Di-Paola-768x494.jpg 768w, http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/Giampaolo-Di-Paola.jpg 1400w" width="1024" /></a>Giampaolo di Paola</div>Trump expressed his frustration as to how only five NATO countries are “paying what they’re supposed to,” that is, the United States, the United Kingdom, Poland, Greece and Estonia. (11)There are fears that the Trump administration will make NATO obsolete. But from reading the words of Trump’s Defense Secretary, General James Mattis, the preservation of NATO is still demanded within the realm of America’s interest. "If we did not have NATO today, we would need to create it,” <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="http://www.cnn.com/2017/01/16/politics/trump-nato-cabinet/">said</a> Mattis.So, it looks like NATO will remain, but, it is probable that it will be greatly reduced. Retired military captain, Douglas Alan Cohn, has made some interesting observations and predictions in his recent book, WW4. In regards to NATO, Kohn predicts that the coalition “is going to become a near-empty shell, a US-led alliance comprised almost entirely of US forces, which had already accounted for nearly three-fourths of NATO’s military personnel and equipment.” Kohn then predicts that NATO membership will be reduced to the US, the UK, Canada, Estonia, Lativa, Lithuania and Poland, while Denmark, Iceland and Norway will be merely a “Nonparticipating Nordic NATO Remnant”.  Kuhn also predicts that there will be a new union to eclipse a fragmented EU, a “Central European Union,” headed by Germany, and consisting of the Czech Republic, Hungary, Luxembourg, the Netherlands and Slovakia. (12)On the morning of Brexit <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="/2016/06/24/britain-just-left-the-eu-and-this-will-eventually-lead-to-a-revived-nazi-germany-that-will-go-to-war-with-christendom/">I wrote an article</a> on my predictions of the future in light of Britain leaving the EU. I wrote that there will be a break between Northern and Southern Europe, and that the Southern European states will form their own union against the North. My exact words were: “Northern Europeans are already fearing a Southern European bloc, consisting of Italy, Spain and Portugal.” I then quoted Adriano Bosoni when he wrote that in Northern Europe, there are “fears of a takeover by this Mediterranean group”.  I also wrote that “With Britain gone, the Germans will become more aggressive, and with this you will also see a split form between the Protestant Northern Europe and the Catholic Southern Europe.” <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/TEWEurope.gif"><img alt="" class="aligncenter wp-image-107977" height="607" src="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/TEWEurope.gif" width="687" /></a>Kohn, in his study, to a great extent concurs with this prediction, and writes that there will be a “NATO-Disenfranchised Southern European Coalition”, consisting of Greece, Italy, Portugal and Spain. He also notes:“First Greece, then Spain and Portugal, followed by Italy, lacking any other choices, must revert to their old currencies followed by a fragmentation into a Southern Europe vs. Northern Europe split.” (13) The 19th century chief of staff for the Prussian Army, Helmuth von Moltke the Elder, envisioned a conflict of “Slav East and the Latin West against the center of Europe,” (14) and this surely became a reality in the First World War, and it could be a reality in the future. Before the eruption of the First World War, Helmuth von Moltke the Younger, who masterminded the German attack upon the Entente, alongside his fellow officers and Great General Staff, believed in a future apocalyptic war between the German race and the Slavic race. (15) It was this doctrine that served as an ideological aspiration for German expansionism and militarism. Before the Archduke Ferdinand was even assassinated, the Germans wanted to dominate Europe for the cause of racial superiority, the religion of Darwinism.<div id="attachment_107978" style="width: 636px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/Generalfeldmarschall_Helmuth_Graf_von_Moltke.jpg"><img alt="" class=" wp-image-107978" height="928" sizes="(max-width: 626px) 100vw, 626px" src="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/Generalfeldmarschall_Helmuth_Graf_von_Moltke-691x1024.jpg" srcset="http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/Generalfeldmarschall_Helmuth_Graf_von_Moltke-691x1024.jpg 691w, http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/Generalfeldmarschall_Helmuth_Graf_von_Moltke-202x300.jpg 202w, http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/Generalfeldmarschall_Helmuth_Graf_von_Moltke-768x1138.jpg 768w, http://shoebat.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/Generalfeldmarschall_Helmuth_Graf_von_Moltke.jpg 1265w" width="626" /></a>Helmuth von Moltke the Elder</div>If the United States conducts a policy of isolationism, allowing for great powers like Turkey, Japan and Germany, to rise, then the world will be knocked back into a global predicament, like the eras before the eruption of both World Wars. In a recently published<a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="http://www.hurriyetdailynews.com/geopolitics-of-the-balkans-after-trump-.aspx?pageID=449&nID=106671&NewsCatID=396"> report written by Jasmin Ademovic,</a> it reads:<blockquote> “If Trump’s presumed isolationist stance and conciliatory tone with Moscow come to fruition, the U.S. will almost certainly cease to be a major player in the western Balkans, leaving a precarious power balance between Turkey, Russia, Germany and the United Kingdom.” </blockquote>In other words, we could be going back to the WW1 era, in which the alliance of the Ottoman Empire, Germany and its Austro-Hungarian ally, rivaled with Great Britain, Russia, France and Italy for dominance in the Balkans, and ultimately, for the rest of Europe. As Otto Von Bismarck predicted before WW1: <blockquote>"One day the great European War will come out  of some damned foolish thing in the Balkans” (16)</blockquote>World War Two started from a conflict in Eastern Europe (Poland and Czechoslovakia), World War One began as a conflict in Serbia, so its possible that the future world war will commence in Eastern Europe. What we can conclude, is that the world is about to enter its darkest moment; a great cloud of darkness is about to flood the earth, and its trail will be one of blood, death and carnage.TWOTHE WAR BETWEEN GOOD AND EVIL, IS THE WAR BETWEEN THE LOVERS OF TRUTH, AND THE HATERS OF LIFE

Islamic Shariah Government In Nigeria Abruptly Seizes, Demolishes Two Churches In Front Of Their Congregations

While Christianity is spreading rapidly throughout Nigeria, it has also provoked the wrath of many Muslims, who are doing all they can to stop its growth.According to a recent story, authorities in Jigawa seized two churches without notice and demolished them on the spot as their congregations were forced to watch:<blockquote>Nigerian Christians were alarmed after the authorities demolished two church buildings in Dutse, the capital of the northern state of Jigawa.On Jan. 11, bulldozers, escorted by police officers, tore down the buildings of the Redeem Christian Church of God and the Lord Chosen Church, World Watch Monitor reported.Rev. Yakubu Musa, chairman of the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) for Jigawa, said that the authorities arrived at the Redeem Church at around 10 a.m. The police blocked the entrance to prevent church members from entering the building, and those who tried to take pictures were chased away. The authorities started demolishing the second church at around 12 noon."It was a terrible experience, with so many Christians who witnessed the demolition crying. I felt so bitter because we were in a situation where you have been cheated and you cannot talk," said Musa.Alhaji Garba Isa, the Executive Secretary of Urban Development Board, said that the buildings were torn down because the churches were built without permits. He claimed that notices have been sent to the churches three times to discontinue the development of the buildings. However, Musa stated that neither the pastors of the church nor the leadership of CAN received a notice of demolition."They just came in unexpectedly and they demolished everything. Nobody was allowed to remove any valuables in the church buildings and other nearby properties," he said.He added that both churches have applied for the necessary documents but the government refused to grant them.Musa further noted that none of the 36 churches in Dutse have been given building permission because the government has not responded to the applications."We feel we are equally citizens of this country and we have the rights to be allowed to practise our religion. But this demolition was done out of injustice and discrimination," he remarked.Six more churches in Jigawa are slated for demolition. The authorities have not indicated any plans for compensation or other alternatives. The congregation of the two demolished churches will be holding services and other weekly programs out in the open.Jigawa is one of the 12 states that adopted Sharia in the 2000s. Nigeria is currently ranked on the Open Doors World Watch List as the 12th most difficult place to live in as a Christian.
