Christian greetings in the precious Name of our Lord Jesus Christ; we are

Your brother-in-Christ
Our Main Article is "Christmas"—not the Christmas celebrated by
the world, but the simple truth. God is in His Word. "Let My Word be
true, and every other man's word a lie." This Book of Revelation is
the only Book that Jesus endorsed. And the first thing He did was to
reveal His Deity. He said, "Any one that will take anything out of
It or add anything thereto, his part will be taken out of the Book of
Life. Blessed is he that reads, or he that hears. And cursed is he
that will add or take one thing therefrom." Just leave It the way
it is. The Spirit will reveal It to you if you'll just be humble, ask
Him! Jesus said "I thank You, Father, that You have hid these things
from the eyes of the rabbis, bishops, and cardinals, and have revealed
it to babes such as will learn."
In Revelation 18:1-4, "Another angel came down from heaven, having
great power; and the earth was lightened with His glory. And He cried
mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is
fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every
foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird. For all
nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and
the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the
merchants of the earth are waxed rich through the abundance of her
delicacies. And I heard another voice from heaven, echo, Come out of
her, My people, that you be not partakers of her sins, and receive not
of her plagues".
A great many things have been added to and taken from God's unchanging
Word, one of which is Christmas. Our news items contain important matters
foreshadowing things to come in the following months including the
fulfillment of the seventh and last of Brother Branham's 1933 Apocalypse
of visions.
This Newsletter serves those of like precious faith. Whoever will receive
the truth is welcome to feed their soul from the waters of the River of
Life. Everything here presented should be confirmed personally in your

Gerald: Genocide Warnings for 2026
December 22, 2025 — At Least 20 Countries in Danger:
1. Palestine
Israel's genocide of Palestinians continues by withholding survival aid,
starvation and military actions in Gaza despite superficial ceasefire,
the West Bank, gradually illegally being taken over. Nations have not
intervened to stop a genocide progressing with impunity . . . portions of
each country's economic structure, supporting the Israelis.
2. Sudan
Genocide, promulgated by foreign struggle for Sudan's resources continues
with starvation augmented by military massacres of civilians . . . Great
Lakes region subjected to Euro-American military planning affecting
Rwanda genocide . . . complicity in genocide may exist among the US
Egypt, United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Israel, and others.
3. Eastern Democratic Republic of Congo
Genocide of locals continues despite false peace treaty between Rwanda
and the DRC as arranged by US to assure access to defense related
minerals with Euro-American demands.
4. Myanmar
The genocide of the Rohingya among other minorities, recognized by Canada
and continues . . . intervention required by UN Convention on Genocide
traced to the Myanmar military govt. alliances with Russia and China . .
. Rohingya homeland hosts Chinese processing plants, oil and gas pipeline
to China . . . Only half the original Rohingya population remains in
Myanmar. Genocide being normalized by great powers in the guise of
"development."
To avoid a confrontation with true democracy, the people are killed. Mass
annihilation of people as in the four genocides noted above is a more
rapid process of acquisition.
Once the tactical use of genocide for acquisition is recognized . . . the
US wants to assume Venezuela's oil reserves, and Venezuelan people, if
invaded, will resist thoroughly . . . slaughter of the Venezuelan people
is clear.
US aggression against Venezuela is an extension of well established US
corporate policy in the Americas . . . a tactic of population control
in Guatemala where . . . North American corporate interests accountable.
Haiti is currently hosting a UN force of a thousand which will
add 5,500 with the professed aim, of controlling the gang leaders who
have assumed power in portions of the country. A difficulty is that the
gang leaders often represent the remains of Haitian native resistance to
foreign takeover. An ongoing war against the Haitian people has been
waged covertly by France since Haiti's Independence. US-based Newmont
Corporation is expecting a change in Haitian mining law allowing it to
proceed with projects requiring the additional protection of a UN army.
Lebanon and Syria are both under threat of Israel's
military expansion supported by the US which occupies Syrian oil fields.
Both countries risk becoming part of "greater (non-Semitic) Israel" . . .
Iraq and Afghanistan have endured extensive use of depleted
uranium weaponry by the US and are victims of a military program which
may cause . . . genocide by D.U. and chemical exposure gives value to the
waste generated by the nuclear industry.
Nigeria:
Christians under threat from govt. neglect and in Igbo regions, direct
persecution. US funding of arms to the govt. providing an Anglo-US base
of operations in the region against Burkina Faso, Mali, and
Niger, making use of Russian and Chinese technology to develop what
Ibrahim Traoré counsels is self-sufficiency . . . Anglo-American policies
object to African development of self-sufficiency. Chinese investment in
African infrastructures is often very considerate of the country's
people, which Western corporations see as a threat. Nigeria's Christian
population (about 50%) is set against its 50% Muslims so the country can
be controlled by foreign interests. An ongoing genocide warning is likely
for the national groups of Burkina Faso, Mali and Niger. In 2026
Nigeria may extend its interest in oil resources past the Igbo lands of
Biafra to Cameroon's Ambazonia across the border, where the Francophone
government of Cameroon is holding at bay an Anglophone insurrection. And
to the north of Ambazonia Cameroon is holding off attacks by the IS
Jihadists who take refuge in northern Nigeria.
Regionally in West Africa both Cameroon and Gabon have also
developed workable ties to Russia and China. This may be met by increased
IS Jihadist and Ambazonian military actions against the government of
Cameroon, as the Anglo-American efforts for influence and control of
African resources continue. Gabon which has remained at peace since
Independence in 1960 currently hosts sizable US oil investment which
may discourage Euro-American destabilization.
Ukraine: useful to the corporate warfare policies of NATO, the
people are gradually being sacrificed to war. So are Russian soldiers.
Russia claimed to have entered the Ukraine initially to protect
Russian-Ukrainian ethnic groups subject to being destroyed in their
homeland. This occurred after the political balance of the region was
disrupted by a CIA takeover of the Ukraine. The loss of hundreds
of thousands of Ukrainians and Russians coincides with the Western
corporate purchase of the Ukraine's resources. A genocide warning for all
Ukrainians; the country's native resistance is being taken out entirely.
India: Muslims, Christians, Dalits, Sikhs, and other groups at
risk of genocide due to the ruling ethic of Prime Minister Modi's
nationalist BJP party. The people of Kashmir under India's occupation
continue to endure the destruction of their country's sovereignty and
culture.
US: all people of colour in the US are faced with . . .
increasing prejudice furthered by the current administration's overt
racism, growing income inequality, increased lack of access to health
care, decreasing political representation, lack of civil rights, safe
environments; early genocide warning is extended to all the US poor. The
budgetary extreme preference for the defense industry suggests the
country is arming for global war while legislating an automatic
registration for the draft. War is a primary way to reduce population,
primarily of the poor.
Genocide leaves a footprint of death, and a footprint of profit . . . the
footprint of profit is also indelible and provides a way to identify the
promulgators of a genocide and apply justice. It should be made very
dangerous to profit from war. Companies supplying weapons, or
underwriting and protecting genocidal states must be held accountable.
Accountable to laws against genocide, at court. Accountable to the codes
of human decency as with the judgment expressed by boycott. Aren't these
preferable to the tragedies of a people's wartime resistance even when
the people win? Full story:

Australia CRACKS DOWN on Speech after Zionist False Flag Attack!
December 22, 2025 — Australia's government is using the recent Bondi
Beach attacks as justification to impose new hate-speech and
anti-extremism laws, which Jimmy Dore describes as an assault on free
speech driven by pressure from pro-Israel interests. Jimmy argues that
the attack was a "false flag," likely the result of collaboration between
Western governments and Israeli intelligence, and criticizes Australia
for adopting definitions of anti-Semitism that suppress criticism of
Israel and Zionism.
The segment highlights new Australian policy proposals,
including harsher penalties for "hate speech," immigration restrictions
related to "division," and education measures addressing anti-Semitism,
while portraying them as Orwellian "thought-crime" controls. Throughout,
Jimmy condemns Australian leadership, accuses global elites of narrative
manipulation, and argues this represents a broader international
crackdown on dissent . . . Full story: youtube.com
Comment: Benjamin Disraeli observed, "Language and religion do
not make a race—there is only one thing which makes a race, and that is
blood" (Coningsby, Chapter 56). Encyclopedia Britannica, the
1973 Encyclopedia Judaica and the Universal Jewish Encyclopedia
state that 90% of Israeli 'Jews' in Israel are non-Semitic imposters
with no history in the Middle East. The Jewish Encyclopedia's
statistical authorities and researchers in DNA say 90% of Israelis and
Jews are non-Semitic with no history in the Middle East. In a conversation
at the Pentagon shortly after 9/11 a high-ranking US Army general showed
General Wesley Clark a classified memo outlining a plan to attack seven
countries within five years: Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, Libya, Somalia, Sudan,
and Iran. Six of these nations are oil rich: four are Semitic.
The Pentagon, USA, (once) British Empire and Western European nations
are ruled by non-Semitic Khazar Zionist and Edomite self-styled Jews
following Chabad-Lubavitch (Trump and Netanyahu) and Talmudic
abominations contrary to the Tanakh. Any Israelite living outside the
Promised Land is an outlaw, without the Covenant and apostate.
"Jew" and "Israeli" are unscriptural words. "God Hates" Edomite
Jews of Cain's race (Deuteronomy 7:1-4, 16, 23; Obadiah; Malachi 1:1-5;
Matthew 23:23-39; John 8:21-44). Such folk boast they are God's chosen
people yet Jesus told Abram in Genesis 17:5, "your Name shall be
Abraham; for a father of many nations have I made you".
Genesis 1:1, "In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth."
In Revelation 3:14, the fourth Elijah, "the angel of the church of
the Laodiceans wrote; These things says the Amen, the faithful and true
witness, the beginning of the creation of God . . ." and Ephesians
3:9, "from the beginning of the world . . . God created all things by
Jesus Christ." And Revelation 10:1-2, 6, "created heaven, and the
things that therein are, and the earth, and the things that therein are,
and the sea, and the things which are therein, that there should be time
no longer." And in Matthew 28:18, "Jesus came and spoke to them,
saying, All power is given unto Me in heaven and in earth".
In 125BC Jerusalem's high priest, John Hyrcanus I assimilated Edom which
is predominantly Cainite, accursed of God and absent the Book of Life.
Pilate would have released Jesus as innocent for he knew that the chief
priests had delivered Him for envy. But the chief priests moved the
people, and they cried out again, Crucify him (Mark 15). In consequence
the Judeans slaughtered their near Kinsman Redeemer, and God turned to us
Gentiles. God's compound redemptive Name is LORD JESUS CHRIST; His
Gentile Wife is made up of an election from Adam's race. In the
climax of Daniel's Seventieth Week Jesus Christ will redeem 144,000 elect
Israelites, no "Israeli" or "Jew" will number in God's servant nation
(Hosea 6:1-2).
This will not be another Jewish False Flag! It
will be signaled by tectonic activity unprecedented since man was on
earth. Earth will move on its axis igniting the Pacific Ring of Fire,
sinking islands and mountains, sending tsunamis across the oceans. The
sun will be blackened, the stars will seem to fall and the Moon will be
as blood from lunar volcanism. Non-Semitic Jews will abandon Israel, and
Uncle Sam will be preoccupied. I expect Australia's east coast will be
devastated: Prime Minister Albanese was informed. Last week Australia
contributed $98 million to Khazaria (Ukraine), homeland of non-Semitic,
anti-Semitic Jewry and Zionists. International bankers are fighting with
the blood and credit of the Western world to conquer the heartland of
Eurasia and rule one world government. Australia gifted its M1A2 Abrams
Main Battle tanks, Bushmaster Personnel Carriers, helicopters and who
knows what else against peaceful Russia, thanks to
centuries of corrupt Presidents, UK, European and Pacific Prime
Ministers. However the God of Israel, Lord Jesus Christ, does not work
that way.
Netanyahu has sought to shift the responsibility for the colossal
failure onto the shoulders of the security establishment, arguing he was
not woken up in the hours before the invasion when signs of impending
attack were being picked up by Israel's intelligence services, while
denying he bought into the "conception" that
Hamas was more interested in governing Gaza than attacking Israel.
Netanyahu had for years placated the HAMAS (established by Prime
Minister Menachem Begin and Yasser Arafat) with policies sending
Qatari funds into Gaza, issuing work permits for Gazans and ordering
limited responses to attacks.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Thursday claimed that Shin Bet
chief Ronen Bar knew several hours before Hamas's October 7, 2023,
massacre that an invasion by Hamas (which is funded by Israel) was
likely but did not alert him. "This is a fact and not a conspiracy,"
a statement from the premier's office read, asserting that at 4:30
that morning, "it was already clear to the outgoing Shin Bet head
that an invasion of the State of Israel was likely."
The statement went on to ask: "Why at that moment did he not wake up the
prime minister? Why didn't he warn the community heads in the Gaza
periphery? Why was the prime minister's military secretary only updated
minutes before the start of the attack?" The statement repeated a
narrative that an "Israeli official"—who Channel 12 identified as the
prime minister himself—peddled to media outlets last week as the cabinet
sat down to fire Bar.
Netanyahu has said publicly that he lost faith in the Shin Bet chief
after some 1,200 people, mostly civilians, were murdered and 251 hostages
taken when thousands of Hamas-led terrorists rampaged through southern
communities on October 7, 2023. (This is a bald-face lie .Ed). The
delayed response to the invasion was to enable HAMAS to enter the
community freely, taking some hostages but harming no one.
Videos show an IDF tank blast Israeli homes, scores of vehicles relocated
and incinerated by IDF helicopter. Interviews with female military expose
October 7, 2023 as an Israeli False Flag, and confirmed they had been
stood down. These Jews withstood Jesus Christ who agreed that they were
Abraham's seed but not the offspring of Isaac and Jacob, but of their
father the Devil, who was a liar and murderer from the beginning. They
were of Cain's lineage (John 8).
If you read your own Bible you will know the answers to these questions.
And that Christ's second coming was 62 years ago. He is present and the
world church system is apostate.

"Conquering the World by Stealth" at 56.31sec. Rabbi
Izzer Z. Weisberg believes President Trump is a second King Cyrus, who
released the Judeans from Babylon, and that Trump would set Israel free from
the Goyim, build the third temple and introduce the real Messiah. Howbeit
Trump wants to build a casino on the Med! Another Rabbi—closer to reality
claims President Trump is Esau. These misguided rabbis are looking for a
flesh and blood Messiah. They should be seeking two prophets (Genesis 18:17;
Isaiah 48:5; Amos 3:7; John 13:15-16). Moses and Elijah who will forerun
Christ's UNSEEN second (Gk.) 'parousia' coming to Israel in W_O_R_D
form (Exodus 19:4; Isaiah 40:31; Daniel 7:25; 12:7; Revelation 11:3-12; 19;
12:6).
Without a vindicated prophet the rabbis will die in their 2,000 of Talmudic
guesswork, "teaching for doctrines the commandments of men" (Matthew
15:9). And they will martyr the two prophets as they martyred their God and
near Kinsman Redeemer, Lord Jesus Christ.
The threefold "restitution" occurred to the Old Testament saints when the
way of salvation under the New Covenant was opened through our near Kinsman Redeemer
Jesus Christ. It occurs when we are born-again. It will occur at the
consummation of Life when the saints of all ages step out on the ashes of the wicked.
The Judeans brutally crucified Jesus Messiah almost two thousand years ago. He
will not return until the Millennium when He steps out on the nuclear ashes of the
wicked with the glorified Old Testament and New Testament saints for a thousand
years of peace.
Messiah comes only three times. First He was conceived of the Holy Ghost, born by
the virgin Mary in 4BC and named Jesus and called "Emmanuel," meaning God
with us. This was a (Gk.) 'parousia' coming. His Second Coming was in 1963
when the Seven Seals brought Christ back to earth in W_O_R_D form (John 1:1-4; I
John 1:1; Revelation 19:13).
Billionaire Insulted a Waitress in Arabic – he Froze when She Spoke Fluently
November 14, 2025 — You might enjoy this: The billionaire leaned back, smirking as he spoke in Arabic—mocking the waitress in front of his guests. They all laughed, certain she couldn't understand. She turned, eyes calm, voice steady—and replied in perfect, fluent Arabic. Her words were elegant, precise and impossible to ignore. The room went silent.

Russia's 'Oreshnik' deployed to deter NATO Aggression in Eastern Europe
December 21, 2025 — "Oreshnik." This truly
groundbreaking weapon represents the very pinnacle of Russian
engineering, as it can use a plethora of payloads, including MaRV
(maneuverable reentry vehicle), MIRV (multiple independently targetable
reentry vehicle), HGV (hypersonic glide vehicle), etc. In terms of the
functioning of its warhead, the available footage shows that the
"Oreshnik" can carry at least 36 smaller projectiles divided into six
blocks (with six kinetic submunitions in each). During its first combat
use in November 2024, the "Oreshnik" demonstrated why it has the
reputation of being effectively invincible. Although the area was
protected by overhyped and exorbitantly overpriced US-made "Patriots",
there were no launches from the ground as the "Oreshnik" struck like a
meteorite.
Thus, the aforementioned INF Treaty (Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces)
Treaty was signed in 1987 and was enforced, prompting both sides to
dismantle and destroy all of their ground-based medium and
intermediate-range missiles. However, on August 2, 2019, the US
unilaterally withdrew its signature, just like it did with all other
crucial arms control treaties over the last 20-25 years. Only two years
later, in 2021, meaning before the SMO (special military operation), the
US Army reactivated the 56th Artillery Command in Wiesbaden (district
Mainz-Kastel), Germany. Precisely this unit is now equipped with the
previously banned medium and intermediate-range missiles, with plans to
induct new platforms, such as the "Dark Eagle", officially known as the
Long-Range Hypersonic Weapon (LRHW). However, the Pentagon is struggling
to develop even basic hypersonic weapon systems. . . Full story:

Video: Venezuela: Trump's War against the Americas
December 20, 2025 — "American President Donald
Trump has formally ordered the "total and complete blockade" of
Venezuela, claiming that its government is now designated as a
"foreign terrorist organization" (FTO). Trump also bragged that the
US Navy "completely surrounded" Venezuela with "the largest armada ever
assembled in the history of South America" . . . What is at stake is a
process of "Economic Strangulation" of a country which happens to be the
Number One Oil and Gas Economy at the level of the entire planet.
Meanwhile, the US War Department–which is "committed to
peace"–has announced a strategic project which consists in
militarizing the entire Western hemisphere. It's called US
Americas Combat Command with the acronym AMERICOM, extending
from Canada's Northern territories in the Arctic to the tip of Argentina
in South America and The Antarctica . . . an encroachment of the
fundamental rights of more than 40 sovereign nation states in "Las
Americas".
Our objective is to reach out to people worldwide: the Americas,
Western Europe, Russia, China, India, East and South East Asia, Australia
and The Pacific. Our longstanding commitment is to world peace and

Comment: President Donald Trump announced late Sunday on Truth
Social that he is appointing Louisiana Gov. Jeff Landry to serve as the
US Special Envoy to Greenland. The move prompted Denmark's Foreign
Minister, Lars Lokke Rasmussen, to summon the US ambassador, saying the
appointment suggests continued American interest in the resource-rich
island.
In a separate statement, Rasmussen told CBS News he was "deeply angered" by the
appointment and warned Washington to respect Denmark's sovereignty.
Yesterday Mr. Trump
modestly announced that he wants to build New "Golden Fleet" of future
battleships for hemispheric defense. He said,
we'll immediately commence building the first two of 20-25 of these
ships. The responsible Naval executive said, "I don't believe President
Trump understands modern warfare".
The first "Trump-class" battleship will be named USS Defiant, a
famous Brtish warship. The WSJ has reported that the US Navy will launch
a vendor competition, with plans to procure the first hull in 2030. (In
the second half of "the time of Jacob's Trouble" ).
The Blockade of Venezuela & Collapse of the Global Maritime Order
December 22, 2025 — On December 16, 2025, the United States
blockaded Venezuela from the sea without declaring war and without
authorization from the United Nations Security Council. This action is
not a military intervention in the classical sense. It is a sign of a far
more radical and dangerous transformation. The legal and political
definition of war has been altered. By its very nature, blockade is an
act of war under both classical and contemporary international law of
armed conflict, the law of naval warfare, and customary law. Despite
this, the practice against Venezuela has been legitimized through the
language of "fighting terrorism" and "inspecting sanctioned
tankers." There is no declared war, yet a new mechanism has emerged
that produces all of the consequences of war.
The model applied in Venezuela is linked to the Trump Corollary/Monroe
Doctrine framework embedded in the US National Security Strategy 2025
(NSS 2025). In antithesis to NSS 2025, published on December 4, 2025,
China released its Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC) Policy Document
on December 10, 2025. Through this document, China declares that it will
not withdraw from what the United States considers its sphere of
influence. The clash between these two documents over Venezuela will have
irreversible effects on the global maritime security system" . . .
For the past 80 years, the United States has claimed to be the guarantor
of freedom of the seas. Yet it lacks the capacity to manage multiple
simultaneous crises. Venezuela in the Caribbean, Taiwan in the Western
Pacific, Russia in the Baltics, and Iran in Hormuz together stretch US
power beyond its limits. The model introduced in Venezuela erodes the
maritime security architecture built by the United States itself and
provides an extremely effective tool for its competitors.
The Venezuelan case is thus a precedent. Taiwan, however, holds the
potential to become the true breaking point where this precedent is
tested on a global scale. Once the practice of "blockade without war,"
initiated in the Caribbean, is replicated in the Pacific, the
international order will collapse not only de facto but openly. We
are entering an era of wars waged without declarations. The seas are
becoming the primary arena for blockade-like "security inspections,"
counterterrorism pretexts, and economic strangulation through the
insurance–port–bank nexus. Maritime geopolitics is now advancing faster
than the law itself. Full story: globalresearch.ca
Imperialism & Continuity: US Foreign Policy in Latin America & Caribbean
by
Ret. Admiral Cem Gürdeniz
December 22, 2025 — The criminal
US government is now focusing its attention on Latin America and the
Caribbean . . . a natural escalation of already long-standing policies of
aggression . . . It has not been able to overthrow revolutionary
governments in Cuba, Nicaragua and Venezuela or prevent progressive
governments in Brazil, Colombia and Mexico, nor has it been able to curb
China's growing economic influence in the region. As in Europe, the US
government wants to subject the entire region to its unquestionable
domination through the collaboration of local oligarchies, as always.
Against all the evidence, the US government continues to claim that it
serves the interests of its people when everyone can see with absolute
clarity that it serves above all the criminal interests of its corrupt
ruling elites. In the new document, as in so many others, multiple false
beliefs are asserted, for example that the country has the largest
economy in the world, that it is the most advanced in technology and
innovation, that its armed forces are the most powerful and the best,
that its financial system is indispensable. Apparently, the US ruling
classes sincerely believe these outdated statements . . .
In fact, for several years now, China has been the largest economy in the
world. China and Russia have proven that their technologies are superior
and more innovative than those of the US in practically all scientific
and technological fields. In Ukraine, Russia has defeated the combined
military effort of all the NATO countries by killing more than a million
soldiers from an army fully trained, armed, equipped and supported by the
US and European governments. More and more countries of the majority
world exchange their trade in national currencies without using the US
dollar and use their own financial services, such as insurance companies
or rating agencies, instead of their Western equivalents . . . Compared
to the cooperation and trade initiatives of the People's Republic of
China, India or the Russian Federation, the US elites offer only greater
impoverishment and underdevelopment . . . Full story: globalresearch.ca
A Battered America awaits Trump's Next Move
December 21, 2025 — Is Trump the "First Jewish President?"
President Donald Trump's end of year speech to the American public
that took place on December 17th was full of conceits over how the
United States under the new regime in power is moving ahead on all fronts
to benefit the American people. The reality is somewhat different with a
struggling economy, inflation and growing unemployment as well as wars
and rumors of wars.
The only economic sector that appears to be doing just fine is the
"military industrial complex" (MIC), or should one call it the warfare
conglomerate, fattening on the one trillion dollar plus budgeted for
military and related spending. For sure, the warfare bill is helping to
expand the nation's debt while providing little in the way of national
security due to profound ignorance combined with serial blundering by
those in power in and around the White House . . .
All
of which leads us to Israel, which appears to be the only thing that
Donald Trump regards as important. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin
Netanyahu will be in Washington on December 29th, a visit requested
by Trump which will be the fifth such meeting this year. It will
apparently be a final discussion over steps needed for moving to the next
phase of the so-called "Trump Peace Plan" with Gaza. Israel has routinely
violated nearly every aspect of the ceasefire agreement and has kept
closed Gaza's Rafah border crossing with Egypt, which was supposed to
reopen in October as part of the first phase . . . Other developments
recently both in Washington and abroad also serve to underline who is
actually in charge here in the US. Early in December, the US Embassy in
Jerusalem co-sponsored with the Israeli government a gathering of 1,000
evangelical pastors from the United States entitled the "Friends of Zion
Ambassador Summit" (not one of them a Christian .Ed) . . . That the US
Embassy is supporting Israeli ethnic cleansing policies is shameful and
Huckabee clearly does not understand the proper role for an American
ambassador, nor apparently does Trump, who appointed him . . . The US
government, for its part, should not have been engaged in the activity at
all and those involved should have been condemned under the terms of the
Foreign Agents Registration Act of 1938 (FARA), which regulated the
behavior of groups that were acting on behalf of foreign governments . .
. John F Kennedy was assassinated shortly after he attempted to register
one of the first of those pro-Israeli lobbying groups in 1963, indicating
there are consequences for restraining friends of Israel. Looook!!
Also at the Tuesday reception, Israeli Las Vegas casino magnate and top
political donor Miriam Adelson publicly and openly declared that Trump
could pursue a third term as president, despite constitutional limits.
Adelson referenced her discussions with (expletive deleted) attorney Alan
Dershowitz about the validity of another term and agreed with him saying
"I met Alan Dershowitz, and I said, Alan, I agree with you. So we can do
it. Think about it." She also pledged an additional $250 million in
campaign support to fund such an initiative, prompting audience chants of
"Four more years."
On a final note, we Americans who still value free speech might want to
take note of a new senior bureaucrat who has assumed his position in
Washington. Trump just appointed Rabbi Yehuda Kaploun, an Israeli-born
Chabad-nik extremist who says "there never was a Palestine," as lead
censor of free speech in America through his position as head of the
office of the State Department Special Envoy to Monitor and Combat
Antisemitism where he will have the rank of Ambassador . . .

Artificial Intelligence as the Operating System of Digital Totalitarianism
December 22, 2025 — Artificial intelligence is marketed as neutral,
objective, and inevitable. We are told it will improve efficiency, manage
complexity, and assist decision-making across society. However, a central
question is not just what AI can or can't do, but who controls it—and to
what end.
AI is not an autonomous force. It is built, funded, trained, filtered,
and deployed by governments, corporations, military agencies, and
financial institutions. Like any administrative technology, it reflects
the priorities of those who design and own it. What makes AI historically
dangerous is not intelligence, but scale and centralization.
AI is rapidly becoming the operating system of a new form of power . . .
Its power lies in becoming foundational—the operating system upon which
technocratic, institutionally governed economic, informational, and
administrative life increasingly depends. Once control is embedded at
that level, it no longer needs to announce itself. It simply executes.
Judgment, responsibility, and self-government are already being displaced
by automated systems whose authority is procedural rather than
accountable. What is lost is not freedom in a dramatic sense, but the
habit of human judgment itself. Once that habit erodes, power no longer
operates through law or debate, but through systems that function
automatically and without appeal. Full story: globalresearch.ca
Land of Confusion: The Great Reset in Motion. 'Freezing the Real Economy, Permanent State of War-Footing'
December 22, 2025 — A structural analysis reveals a deliberate
controlled demolition of the 20th-century social contract. We are
witnessing a transition from a productive capitalist model, which
required a healthy mass labour force, to what Yanis Varoufakis calls a
techno-feudalist order.
The engine of this transition was a desperate financial stabilization
strategy carried out by means of a public health event. (The COVID
plandemic). As identified by Professor Fabio Vighi, the global financial
system reached a point of terminal instability in late 2019, evidenced by
the collapse of the US repo market (where banks lend to each other).
By freezing the real economy through lockdowns, central banks performed
massive liquidity injections to save the banking-finance tier. If that
money had entered a functioning economy, it would have triggered
hyper-inflation. By keeping the population at home, the elite performed a
stealth bailout that preserved the dominance of the financial class by
sacrificing the productive middle class (WEF .Ed).
However, a geopolitical reset also had to take place. For decades,
Germany's economy relied on three pillars: cheap Russian gas, high-tech
exports to China and a US security umbrella. By late 2025, all three have
been fractured. As Prof. Michael Hudson notes, the 'sabotage' of the Nord
Stream pipelines was a structural necessity for the Western financial
elite.
If Germany continued to integrate with Russia and China, it would have
created a power pole independent of the US dollar. The conflict in
Ukraine served a purpose: it resulted in Germany replacing Russian
pipeline gas and being forced into a massive build-out of liquefied
natural gas (LNG) infrastructure and reliance on LNG from the US. Unlike
pipeline gas, LNG must be super-cooled, shipped and re-gasified, a
process that is inherently 3–4 times more expensive.
The result is that, in 2025, German industrial output is at its lowest
since the 1990s. Heavy industries like BASF (chemicals) and ThyssenKrupp
(steel) are relocating to the US or China. Meanwhile, Germany is pivoting
from an industrial giant by betting on creating jobs in the likes of the
green energy sector (including becoming a 'hydrogen hub'), semiconductors
and microelectronics, robotics and biotech and diverting its capital into
a €150 billion annual defense spend.
(The Volkswagen factory in Dresden has closed for the
first time in its 88-year history and plans to lay off 35,000 employees by
2030 .Ed). At the same time, while Germany collapses, the City of London
thrives on global volatility. Among other things, the City is the global
hub for war risk insurance and energy brokerage. When a pipeline is
destroyed or a strategically important shipping lane is threatened, the
price of war risk insurance triples. The London insurance market (Lloyd's)
extracts these 'risk premiums' from the global economy. The City's brokers
treat geopolitical instability as a volatile asset class. Even as British
households are crushed by energy bills, the financial centre remains
profitable by extracting wealth from the very chaos that foreign policy
helps to manufacture.
Moreover, the City of London has secured its position as the
indispensable middleman of the transatlantic energy pivot. While the
physical gas originates in the US and is consumed in Europe, the
financial and legal architecture of this trade is almost entirely managed
in London.
Commodity brokers and exchanges like ICE (Intercontinental Exchange) in
London have seen record volumes in LNG futures and derivatives. These are
financial bets on the future price of gas. As volatility increases, the
fees and commissions extracted by London-based traders and clearinghouses
skyrocket.
More than 90% of the world's marine insurance, including the specialized,
high-premium coverage required for LNG tankers is underwritten through
Lloyd's. By enforcing strict war risk premiums on any ship entering
European waters, London effectively imposes a private tax on every
molecule of gas that replaces the lost Russian pipeline supply . . .

A Long Overdue Legal Initiative. Russia's Submission to the ICJ. Charges of Genocide against Ukraine
December 23, 2025 — Good for Russia! And cautiously, good for
international law! The International Criminal Court (ICJ), an
institution with scant juridical credibility, which was founded under
the auspices of the collective West and remains effectively under its
control, has agreed to consider Russia's submission wherein the
neo-Nazi Ukrainian regime is charged with committing genocide against
Ukrainian citizens, present and former, perceived by the regime and/or
identifying themselves as Russians . . .

Christmas
Ephesians 2:20, "Christ's Body,
His Bride, is built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ Himself being the
chief corner stone."
Brother Branham's ministry completed the Reformation of the Judeo-Roman system of false worship and
is now restoring Christ's end-time Bride to the "common faith" that "rock of revelation from
Above" (Matthew 16:13-19) unveiling the mystery of the unwritten Seven Thunders of Revelation 10
which are the revelations contained in the Seven Seals. This Message introduced Christ's second or (Gk.)
'parousia' coming and called the virgins out of "her" the church into "Him" the Word
(Matthew 25:6; Revelation 14:9-11). One of the most deceptive traditions in which most of the world revels
is the Judeo-Roman Catholic festival of Christ-mass of which Brother Branham said:
"Pagan Rome become papal Rome, and was bound there in its traditions of Christian, what part of Christian
and superstitions it had of Rome, putting together all these worship of women, and all these other kind of
stuff, and Christmas days, and holidays, and holy days, and things. It's been bound by that tradition that
it cannot let loose, because it's against Christian principles. Still the same ungodly, pagan spirit . . .
And that spirit caught into the nations of the world, according to the prophecies of Ezekiel, and the rest
of them" (64-0719M, The Feast of the Trumpets, par. 163).
"When today that pagan ceremonies, Christmas trees worshipped, fiction stories of a man named Santa Claus,
and of our Easter rabbits, and the different fashions that the commercial world has capitalized on, may i
t be laid aside, God. Let us enter into Christ the Word, for we asked it in His Name and for His glory.
Amen" (64-1221, Why it had to be Shepherds, par. 14).
"Well, it look like that Santa Claus has taken the place of Christ in Christmas, and some fiction of a
Kriss Kringle coming down a chimney with a sack of toys on his back, that visits the whole world in one night.
And I don't know what you think about it; it's all right if you want to tell your children that; but I was taught,
thought the Scripture said, "Thou shalt not lie." And then someday they're going to ask you, "Is this
Jesus the same thing that Santa Claus is?" when they find out there's no Santa Claus" (63-1216, We have seen
His Star and have come to Worship Him, par. 4).
Alexander Hislop had this to say in his book, The Two Babylons: The festivals of Rome are innumerable; but five of the most
important may be singled out for elucidation, viz., Christmas-day, Lady-day, Easter, the Nativity of St. John,
and the Feast of the Assumption. Each and all of these can be proved to be Babylonian. And first, as to
the festival in honour of the birth of Christ, or Christmas. How comes it that that festival was connected
with the 25th of December? There is not a word in the Scriptures about the precise day of His birth . . . it
could not have been on the 25th of December. At the time that the angel announced His birth to the shepherds
of Bethlehem, they were feeding their flocks by night in the open fields . . . the cold of the night, from
December to February, is very piercing, and it was not the custom for the shepherds of Judea to watch their
flocks in the open fields later than about the end of October . . . There is great unanimity among commentators
on this point . . ."At the birth of Christ every woman and child was to go to be taxed at the city whereto they
belonged, whither some had long journeys; but the middle of winter was not fitting for such a business,
especially for women with child, and children to travel in. Therefore, Christ could not be born in the depth
of winter . . . remember the words of Christ in the gospel, "Pray that your flight be not in the winter
. . ."
Within the Christian Church no such festival as Christmas was ever heard of till the third century, and
that not till the fourth century was far advanced did it gain much observance. How, then, did the Romish
Church fix on December the 25th as Christmas-day? Why, thus: Long before the fourth century, and long
before the Christian era itself, a festival was celebrated among the heathen, at that precise time of the
year, in honour of the birth of the son of the Babylonian queen of heaven; and it may fairly be presumed
that, in order to conciliate the heathen, and to swell the number of the nominal adherents of
Christianity, the same festival was adopted by the Roman Church, giving it only the name of Christ. This
tendency on the part of Christians to meet Paganism half-way was very early developed; and we find T
ertullian, even in his day, about the year 230, bitterly lamenting the inconsistency of the disciples of
Christ in this respect, and contrasting it with the strict fidelity of the Pagans to their own superstition.
"By us," says he, "who are strangers to Sabbaths, and new moons, and festivals, once acceptable to God,
the Saturnalia, the feasts of January, the Brumalia, and Matronalia, are now frequented; gifts are carried
to and fro, New Year's day presents are made with din, and sports and banquets are celebrated with uproar;
oh, how much more faithful are the heathen to their religion, who take special care to adopt no solemnity
from the Christians."
Upright men strive to stem the tide, but in spite of all their efforts, the apostasy went on, till the
Church, with the exception of a small remnant, was submerged under Pagan superstition. That Christmas was
originally a Pagan festival is beyond all doubt. The time of the year, and the ceremonies with which it
is still celebrated, prove its origin. In Egypt, the son of Isis, the Egyptian title for the queen of
heaven, was born at this very time, "about the time of the winter solstice." The very name by which
Christmas is popularly known among ourselves—Yule-day—proves at once its Pagan and Babylonian
origin. "Yule" is the Chaldee name for an "infant" or "little child;" and as the 25th of December was
called by our Pagan Anglo-Saxon ancestors, Yule-day," or the "Child's day," and the night that preceded
it, "Mother-night," long before they came in contact with Christianity, that sufficiently proves its real
character. Far and wide, in the realms of Paganism, was this birth-day observed. This festival has been
commonly believed to have had only an astronomical character, referring simply to the completion of the
sun's yearly course, and the commencement of a new cycle.
Among the Sabeans of Arabia [re. the Queen of Sheba, Sabah, Yemen], who regarded the moon, and not the
sun, as the visible symbol of the favourite object of their idolatry, the same period was observed as
the birth festival. Thus we read in Stanley's Sabean Philosophy: "On the 24th of the tenth month,"
that is December, according to our reckoning, "the Arabians celebrated the BIRTHDAY OF THE LORD—that
is the Moon (p. 1006, col. 1). [Hence, Allah the
Moon God]. The Lord Moon was the great object of Arabian worship, and that Lord Moon, according
to them, was born on the 24th of December, which clearly shows that the birth which they celebrated h
ad no necessary connection with the course of the sun. It is worthy of special note, too, that if
Christmas-day among the ancient Saxons of this island, was observed to celebrate the birth of any
Lord of the host of heaven, the case must have been precisely the same here as it was in Arabia.
The Saxons, as is well known, regarded the Sun as a female divinity, and the Moon as a male. It
must have been the birth-day of the Lord Moon, therefore, and not of the Sun, that was celebrated
by them on the 25th of December, even as the birth-day of the same Lord Moon was observed by the
Arabians on the 24th of December.
The name of the Lord Moon
in the East seems to have been Meni, for this appears to be the most natural interpretation of
the Divine statement in Isaiah 65:11, "But ye are they that forsake my holy mountain, that
prepare a temple for Gad, and that furnish the drink-offering unto Meni." There is reason
to believe that Gad refers to the sun-god, and that Meni in like manner designates the moon-divinity.
Meni, or Manai, signifies "The Numberer," and it is by the changes of the moon that the months are
numbered: Psalm 104:19, "He appointed the moon for seasons: the sun knoweth the time of its
going down." The name of the "Man of the Moon," or the god who presided over that luminary
among the Saxons, was Mane, as given in the "Edda," and Mani, in the "Voluspa." That it was the
birth of the "Lord Moon" that was celebrated among our ancestors at Christmas, we have remarkable
evidence in the name that is still given in the lowlands of Scotland to the feast on the last day
of the year, which seems to be a remnant of the old birth festival for the cakes then made are
called Nur-Cakes, or Birth-cakes. That name is Hogmanay. Now, "Hog-Manai" in Chaldee signifies
"The feast of the Numberer;" in other words, The festival of Deus Lunus, or of the
Man of the Moon.
To show the connection between country and country, and the inveterate endurance of old customs
, it is worthy of remark, that Jerome, commenting on the very words of Isaiah already quoted,
about spreading "a table for Gad," and "pouring out a drink-offering to Meni," observes
that it "was the custom so late as his time [in the fourth century], in all cities especially in
Egypt and at Alexandria, to set tables, and furnish them with various luxurious articles of food, a
nd with goblets containing a mixture of new wine, on the last day of the month and the year, and
that the people drew omens from them in respect of the fruitfulness of the year." The Egyptian year
began at a different time from ours; but this is a near as possible (only substituting whisky for
wine), the way in which Hogmanay is still observed on the last day of the last month of our year
in Scotland. I do not know that any omens are drawn from anything that takes place at that time,
but everybody in the south of Scotland is personally cognisant of the fact, that, on Hogmanay,
or the evening before New Year's day, among those who observe old customs, a table is spread,
and that while buns and other dainties are provided by those who can afford them, oat cakes and
cheese are brought forth among those who never see oat cakes but on this occasion, and that
strong drink forms an essential article of the provision.
It was no mere astronomic festival, then, that the Pagans celebrated at the winter solstice.
That festival at Rome was called the feast of Saturn, and the mode in which it was celebrated
there, showed whence it had been derived. The feast, as regulated by Caligula, lasted five days;
loose reins were given to drunkenness and revelry, slaves had a temporary emancipation, and used
all manner of freedoms with their masters. This was precisely the way in which, according to
Berosus, the drunken festival of the month Thebeth, answering to our December, in other words,
the festival of Bacchus, was celebrated in Babylon. "It was the custom," says he, "during the
five days it lasted, for masters to be in subjection to their servants, and one of them ruled
the house, clothed in a purple garment like a king." This "purple-robed" servant was called "
Zoganes," the "Man of sport and wantonness," and answered exactly to the "Lord of Misrule," that
in the Dark Ages, was chosen in all Popish countries to head the revels of Christmas. The
wassailling bowl of Christmas had its precise counterpart in the "Drunken festival" of Babylon;
and many of the other observances still kept up among ourselves at Christmas came from the very
same quarter. The candles, in some parts of England, lighted on Christmas-eve, and used so long as
the festive season lasts, were equally lighted by the Pagans on the eve of the festival of the
Babylonian god, to do honour to him: for it was one of the distinguishing peculiarities of his
worship to have lighted wax-candles on his altars.
The Christmas tree, now so common among us, was equally common in Pagan Rome and Pagan Egypt.
In Egypt that tree was the palm-tree; in Rome it was the fir; the palm-tree denoting the Pagan
Messiah, as Baal-Tamar, the fir referring to him as Baal-Berith. The mother of Adonis, the Sun-God
and great mediatorial divinity, was mystically said to have been changed into a tree, and when in
that state to have brought forth her divine son. If the mother was a tree, the son must have been
recognised as the "Man the branch." And this entirely accounts for the putting of the Yule
Log into the fire on Christmas-eve, and the appearance of the Christmas-tree the next morning.
As Zero-Ashta, "The seed of the woman," which name also signified Ignigena, or "born of
the fire," he has to enter the fire on "Mother-night," that he may be born the next day out of
it, as the "Branch of God," or the Tree that brings all divine gifts to men. But why, it
may be asked, does he enter the fire under the symbol of a Log?
To understand this, it must be remembered that the divine child born at the winter solstice was
born as a new incarnation of the great god ([Nimrod] after that god had been cut in pieces), on
purpose to revenge his death upon his murderers. Now the great god, cut off in the midst of his
power and glory, was symbolised as a huge tree, stripped of all its branches, and cut down almost
to the ground. But the great serpent, the symbol of the life restoring Aesculapius, twists itself
around the dead stock, and lo, at its side up sprouts a young tree—a tree of an entirely
different kind, that is destined never to be cut down by hostile power—even the palm-tree,
the well-known symbol of victory . . .
Therefore, the 25th of December, the day that was observed at Rome as the day when the
victorious god reappeared on earth, was held at the Natalis invicti solis, "The
birth-day of the unconquered Sun." Now the Yule Log is the dead stock of Nimrod, deified
as the sun-god, but cut down by his enemies; the Christmas-tree is Nimrod
redivivus—the slain god come to life again. In the light reflected by the
above statement on customs that still linger among us, the origin of which has been lost in
the midst of hoar antiquity, let the reader look at the singular practice still kept up in
the South on Christmas-eve, of kissing under the misletoe bough. That misletoe bough in the
Druidic superstition, which, as we have seen, was derived from Babylon, was a representation
of the Messiah, "The man the branch." The misletoe was regarded as a divine
branch—a branch that came from heaven, and grew upon a tree that sprung out of the
earth. Thus by the engrafting of the celestial branch into the earthly tree, heaven and
earth, that sin had severed, were joined together, and thus the misletoe bough became the
token of Divine reconciliation to man, the kiss being the will-known token of pardon and
reconciliation. Whence could such an idea have come? May it not have come from the Psalm
85:10-11, "Mercy and truth are met together; righteousness and peace have KISSED each
other. Truth shall spring out of the earth [in consequence of the coming of the promised
Saviour], and righteousness shall look down from heaven"?
Certain it is that that Psalm was written soon after the Babylonish captivity; and as
multitudes of the Jews, after that event, still remained in Babylon under the guidance of
inspired men, such as Daniel, as a part of the Divine Word it must have been communicated
to them, as well as to their kinsmen in Palestine. Babylon was, at that time, the centre
of the civilised world; and thus Paganism, corrupting the Divine symbol as it ever has
done, had opportunities of sending forth its debased counterfeit of the truth to all the
ends of the earth, through the Mysteries that were affiliated with the great central system
in Babylon. Thus the very customs of Christmas still existent cast surprising light at once
on the revelations of grace made to all the earth, and the efforts made by Satan and his
emissaries to materialise, carnalise, and degrade them".
Now, it is manifest that Lady-day and Christmas-day stand in intimate relation to one
another. Between the 25th of March and the 25th of December there are exactly nine months.
If, then, the false Messiah was conceived in March and born in December, can anyone for a
moment believe that the conception and birth of the true Messiah can have so exactly
synchronised, not only to the mouth, but to the day? The thing is incredible. Lady-day
and Christmas-day, then, are purely Babylonian.
Then look at Easter. What means the term Easter itself? It is not a Christian
name. It bears its Chaldean origin on its very forehead. Easter is nothing else than Astarte,
one of the titles of Beltis, the queen of heaven, whose name, as pronounced by the people
of Nineveh, was evidently identical with that now in common use in this country. That
name, as found by Layard on the Assyrian monuments, is Ishtar . . . But this is another
subject, the point is that Jesus promised the 'Elijah' of Malachi 4:5-6, Matthew 17:11
and Jude 3 whose ministry would restore Christ's end-time Bride to the faith once delivered
to our apostolic fathers. He would be the angel to the Seventh Church Age who would "finish
the mystery of God" through the revelation of the Seven Seals in order to bring us into
"the unity of the faith . . . for the manifestation of the Sons of God . . . and the
translation".
