For the record, Derek was not advocating giving toy guns to boys, he was just making a point: Boys have played at war for millennia and the vast majority never grew up to commit mass murder.  It’s a spiritual thing, not a firepower thing.

Also: Deadly school attacks (with knives, axes, and hammers) in China; the New York Stock Exchange is bought by the Intercontinental Commodity Exchange; Giorgio Tsoukalos binds the universe together; transhumanism and human exceptionalism; and charges are filed for last month’s Indy home explosion.

Tom Horn, CEO of Defender Publishing and co-author with Cris Putnam of the new book Petrus Romanus: The Final Pope is Here, discusses the strange fascination with 2012, the possible occult significance of the so-called prophecies of the end of the age, and how Christians should respond to all of this.

This interview from the Prophecy Summit at Branson is one of a series that will be posted over the next few months. Upcoming guests include Russ Dizdar, Doug Woodward, Gary Stearman, Noah Hutchings of Southwest Radio Ministries, Col. Stephen Bauer, and Chuck Missler.

Video of these interviews will be part of a DVD set that is being produced by Prophecy in the News.

WE’RE NOT sure what is more disturbing — the recent stories from Miami, Maryland, and Canada of cannibalistic behavior or the snarky Internet meme that followed, declaring the onset of a Zombie Apocalypse.

As is often the case, drugs are blamed in these horrific crimes. We think they’re more evidence that Paul knew what he was talking about when he wrote to the church at Ephesus: “For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places.”

Also: Bilderbergers on wry; the Winds of War; the documentary Ethos; and a look ahead to the Prophecy Summit in Branson.

1. Lord James of Blackheath, whom you might remember for his “Foundation X” speech in 2010 (link opens YouTube video), stated in the House of Lords Thursday (2/16) that he’s been investigating for the last two years an attempted fraud or money laundering scheme, possibly involving the government of the U.S. or the Federal Reserve Bank, in the neighborhood of $15 trillion.  (The 2012 budget of the United States, by comparison, is about $3.8 trillion.)
2. Eight people were arrested in Italy Friday (2/17) in possession of $6 trillion in counterfeit U.S. bonds.  That’s double the size of Italy’s national debt (and again, nearly double the annual budget of the U.S.).
3. A quick look through Google News reveals a number of arrests for trafficking in large quantities of counterfeit U.S. government bonds ($134 billion in Italy, $875 billion in Malaysia, $2 trillion in the Philippines, etc.) over the past ten years.

If we assume that some counterfeiters actually get away with their crimes, we have to wonder: How much phony U.S. debt is out there?  How much of it is in the hands of supposedly stable financial institutions?  Is any of it actually being circulated intentionally by those institutions?  And how does that affect the state of the global economy?

The mind reels.

Also: Whitney Houston, Nicki Minaj, and this year’s bizarre Grammy awards; the Beatles and the Tavistock Institute; the FBI foils its own terror plot — again (and see this 1993 article about how much the FBI knew about the first World Trade Center bombing before it happened); and two women sue a clinic in suburban St. Louis for implanting false memories of Satanic abuse.

Meanwhile, Foreign Policy, the official magazine of the Council on Foreign Relations, has published an expose of a false flag operation by the Mossad in which Israeli intelligence operatives posing as CIA agents recruited (Sunni) Pakistani terrorists to strike at (Shia) Iran’s nuclear program.  In other words, it appears that Israel may have wanted to draw the US into a war by prompting Iran to retaliate against American assets.  In response, a joint military exercise between Israel and the US scheduled for spring as apparently been canceled.

We discuss prophecy, scriptural and otherwise, as the world starts counting down to the alleged end of the Mayan calendar.  We’ll look again at who’s behind the belief that this is the year everything changes and why they’re working so hard to get us to buy into that belief.

Also: Egypt raids NGOs; Iran threatens to close Straits of Hormuz; US sells weapons to Saudi Arabia and UAE; President signs indefinite detention of US citizens into law; Gingrich openly appeals to Christians in Iowa; and for the second New Year’s Day in a row, blackbirds drop out of the sky onto Beebe, Arkansas.

Note: At the 15:20 mark, Derek meant to refer to Genesis 6:4 (The Nephilim were on the earth in those days, and also afterward, when the sons of God came in to the daughters of man and they bore children to them.), not Genesis 6:3.

This ruling overturns common law dating back nearly 800 years, to the English Magna Carta of 1215. It effectively strikes down the Fourth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. And with the development of new high-tech surveillance tools, we’re coming very close to the total surveillance state described in 1984, Eagle Eye, and Enemy of the State.

Also: Yellowstone caldera bulges; Dubai islands for the rich sink; and Judge John Roll died a hero.

Here’s a bit of interesting speculation: what if the rumors are true — and the discovery is responsible for the growing number of mysterious animal deaths all over the world (link opens a Google Map with locations and links to news reports)?

Also: more weirdness connected to the death of John Wheeler; Bill Daley goes back to D.C.; Harold Camping predicts the end of the world (again); and news about the fire that destroyed the home of Tom and Nita Horn.

We respectfully disagree. Time is short, yes, but a lot has to happen before we arrive at the Day of the Lord.

Also: mysterious bird and fish deaths; “black alerts” at U.K. hospitals over flu outbreak; angry white (Christian) guys; and Glenn Beck dropped by WOR/New York.
