Abu Qubail menuturkan dari Abdullah bin Amr bin Ash, “Suatu ketika kami sedang menulis di sisi Rasulullah SAW, tiba-tiba beliau ditanya, “Mana yang terkalahkan lebih dahulu, Konstantinopel atau Romawi?” Beliau menjawab, “Kota Heraklius-lah yang akan terkalahkan lebih dulu.” Maksudnya adalah Konstantinopel.”

[H.R. Ahmad, Ad-Darimi, Al-Hakim]

“Kota Konstantinopel akan jatuh ke tangan Islam. Pemimpin yang menaklukkannya adalah sebaik-baik pemimpin dan pasukan yang berada di bawah komandonya adalah sebaik-baik pasukan.” [H.R. Ahmad bin Hambal Al-Musnad 4/335]

Kekaisaran Romawi terpecah dua, Katholik Roma di Vatikan dan Yunani Orthodoks di Byzantium atau Constantinople yang kini menjadi Istanbul. Perpecahan tersebut sebagai akibat konflik gereja meskipun dunia masih tetap mengakui keduanya sebagai pusat peradaban. Constantine The Great memilih kota di selat Bosphorus tersebut sebagai ibukota, dengan alasan strategis di batas Eropa dan Asia, baik di darat sebagai salah satu Jalur Sutera maupun di laut antara Laut Tengah dengan Laut Hitam dan dianggap sebagai titik terbaik sebagai pusat kebudayaan dunia, setidaknya pada kondisi geopolitik saat itu.

Yang mengincar kota ini untuk dikuasai termasuk bangsa Gothik, Avars, Persia, Bulgar, Rusia, Khazar, Arab-Muslim dan Pasukan Salib meskipun misi awalnya adalah menguasai Jerusalem. Arab-Muslim terdorong ingin menguasai Byzantium tidak hanya karena nilai strategisnya, tapi juga atas kepercayaan kepada hadits Rasulullah SAW melalui riwayat Hadits di atas.

Upaya pertama dilakukan oleh Muawiyah bin Abu Sufyan pada tahun 668 M, namun gagal dan salah satu sahabat Rasulullah SAW yaitu Abu Ayyub Al-Anshari ra. gugur. Sebelumnya Abu Ayyub sempat berwasiat jika ia wafat meminta dimakamkan di titik terjauh yang bisa dicapai oleh kaum muslim. Dan para sahabatnya berhasil menyelinap dan memakamkan beliau persis di sisi tembok benteng Konstantinopel di wilayah Golden Horn.

Generasi berikutnya, baik dari kekhalifahan Bani Umayyah dan Bani Abbasiyyah hingga Turki Utsmani pada masa pemerintahan Murad II ayah Muhammad II juga gagal menaklukkan Byzantium. Salah satu peperangan Murad II di wilayah Balkan adalah melawan Vlad Dracula, seorang tokoh Crusader (Perang Salib) yang bengis dan sadis (Dracula karya Bram Stoker adalah terinsipirasi dari tokoh Vlad Dracula ini, Insya Allah tokoh Dracula akan dibahas dalam Postingan berikutnya). Selama 800 tahun kegagalan selalu terjadi, hingga anak Sultan Murad II yaitu Muhammad II naik tahta Turki Utsmani.

Sejak Sultan Murad I, Turki Utsmani dibangun dengan kemiliteran yang canggih, salah satunya adalah dengan dibentuknya pasukan khusus yang disebut Yanisari. Dengan pasukan militernya Turki Utsmani menguasasi sekeliling Byzantium hingga Constantine merasa terancam, walaupun benteng yang melindungi –bahkan dua lapis– seluruh kota sangat sulit ditembus, Constantine pun meminta bantuan ke Roma, namun konflik gereja yang terjadi tidak menelurkan banyak bala bantuan.

Hari Jumat, 6 April 1453 M, Muhammad II atau disebut juga Mehmed II bersama gurunya, syaikh Aaq Syamsudin, beserta pasukannya dibawah komando Halil Pasha dan Zaghanos Pasha merencanakan penyerangan ke Byzantium dari berbagai penjuru benteng kota tersebut. Dengan berbekal 150.000 ribu pasukan dan meriam buatan Urban –teknologi baru pada saat itu– Muhammad II mengirim surat kepada Paleologus untuk masuk Islam atau menyerahkan penguasaan kota secara damai atau perang. Constantine XI Paleologus menjawab tetap mempertahankan kota dengan dibantu oleh Kardinal Isidor, Pangeran Orkhan dan Giovanni Giustiniani dari Genoa.

Kota dengan benteng 10m-an tersebut memang sulit ditembus, selain di sisi luar benteng pun dilindungi oleh parit 7 m. Dari sebelah barat melalui pasukan altileri harus membobol benteng dua lapis, dari arah selatan laut Marmara pasukan laut harus berhadapan dengan pelaut Genoa pimpinan Giustiniani dan dari arah timur armada laut harus masuk ke selat sempit Golden Horn yang sudah dilindungi dengan rantai besar hingga kapal perang ukuran kecil pun tak bisa lewat.

Berhari-hari hingga berminggu-minggu benteng Konstantinople atau Byzantium tak bisa jebol, kalaupun runtuh membuat celah pasukan Constantine mampu mempertahankan celah tersebut dan dengan cepat menumpuk kembali hingga tertutup. Usaha lain pun dicoba dengan menggali terowongan di bawah benteng, cukup menimbulkan kepanikan kota, namun juga gagal. Hingga akhirnya sebuah ide yang terdengar bodoh dilakukan hanya dalam semalam. Salah satu pertahanan yang agak lemah adalah melalui selat Golden Horn yang sudah dirantai. Ide tersebut akhirnya dilakukan, yaitu memindahkan kapal-kapal melalui darat untuk menghindari rantai penghalang, hanya dalam semalam dan 70-an kapal bisa memasuki wilayah selat Golden Horn.

29 Mei, setelah sehari istirahat perang Muhammad II kembali menyerang total, diiringi hujan dengan tiga lapis pasukan, irregular di lapis pertama, Anatolian Army di lapis kedua dan terakhir pasukan Yanisari. Giustiniani sudah menyarankan Constantine untuk mundur atau menyerah tapi Constantine tetap konsisten hingga gugur di peperangan. Kabarnya Constantine melepas baju perang kerajaannya dan bertempur bersama pasukan biasa hingga tak pernah ditemukan jasadnya. Giustiniani sendiri meninggalkan kota dengan pasukan Genoa-nya. Kardinal Isidor sendiri lolos dengan menyamar sebagai budak melalui Galata, dan Pangeran Orkhan gugur di peperangan.

Konstantinopel telah jatuh, penduduk kota berbondong-bondong berkumpul di Hagia Sophia, dan Sultan Muhammad II memberi perlindungan kepada semua penduduk, siapapun, baik Islam, Yahudi ataupun Kristen. Hagia Sophia pun akhirnya dijadikan masjid dan gereja-gereja lain tetap sebagaimana fungsinya bagi penganutnya.

Makanya karena prestasinya menaklukkan Konstantinopel, Muhammad II kemudian mendapat gelar “Al-Fatih”. Artinya “Sang Pembebas”. Barangkali karena para pelaku sejarah sebelumnya tidak pernah berhasil melakukannya, meski telah dijanjikan nabi SAW.

Namun orang barat menyebutkan The Conqueror, artinya Sang Penakluk. Ada kesan bila menggunakan kata “Sang Penakluk” bahwa beliau seolah-olah penguasa yang keras dan kejam. Padahal gelar yang sebenarnya dalam bahasa arab adalah Al-Fatih. Berasal dari kata: fataha – yaftahu. Artinya membuka atau membebaskan. Kata ini terkesan lebih santun dan lebih beradab. Karena pada hakikatnya, yang beliau lakukan bukan sekedar penaklukan, melainkan pembebasan menuju kepada iman dan Islam.

Toleransi tetap ditegakkan, siapa pun boleh tinggal dan mencari nafkah di kota tersebut. Sultan kemudian membangun kembali kota, membangun sekolah –terutama sekolah untuk kepentingan administratif kota– secara gratis, siapa pun boleh belajar, tak ada perbedaan terhadap agama, membangun pasar, membangun perumahan, bahkan rumah diberikan gratis kepada para pendatang yang bersedia tinggal dan mencari nafkah di reruntuhan kota Konstantinople atau Byzantium tersebut. Hingga akhirnya kota tersebut diubah menjadi nama Islambul yang berarti “Kota Islam”. Tapi kini nama tersebut telah diganti oleh Mustafa Kemal menjadi Istanbul. Dan pencarian makam Abu Ayyub sahabat Nabi dilakukan hingga ditemukan dan dilestarikan.

Dan kini Hagia Sophia yang megah berubah fungsi menjadi museum. Jika sahabat semua berkesempatan ke Turki singgahlah kesini.

Map of Byzantine Constantinople

Constantinople in the Byzantine era

Constantinople (Greek: Κωνσταντινούπολις, Κωνσταντινούπολη - Konstantinoúpolis, Konstantinoúpoli; Latin: Constantinopolis; Ottoman Turkish: قسطنطینیه, Kostantiniyye; and modern Turkish: İstanbul) was the capital city of the Eastern Roman or Byzantine Empire, the Latin and the Ottoman Empire. It was founded in AD 330, at ancient Byzantium as the new capital of the Roman Empire by Constantine the Great, after whom it was named. In the 1100s,^[1] the city was the largest and wealthiest European city of the Middle Ages,^[2] its only other European rival in the period being Cordova, Spain (900-1100 AD).^[1] Eventually, the empire of Christian Eastern Orthdoxy in the east was reduced to just the capital and its environs, falling to the Muslims in the historic battle of 1453.

The city itself remained and prospered as the Muslim capital in the Ottoman period; however, scholars normally reserve the name "Constantinople" for the city in Christian period 330-1453, preferring "Istanbul" for the city's name in later centuries. However, many Western writers have continued to refer to the city by its older name "Constantinople" into modern times. And the name "Constantinople" is still used by the 300 million members of the Eastern Orthodox Church in the title of their most important figurehead, the Orthodox patriarch based in the city, referred to as "His Most Divine All-Holiness the Archbishop of Constantinople New Rome and Ecumenical Patriarch."

Constantinople was famed for its massive defenses. Although besieged on numerous occasions by various peoples, it was taken only in 1204 by the army of the Fourth Crusade, in 1261 by Michael VIII Palaiologos, and - finally - in 1453 by the Ottoman Sultan Mehmed II. A first wall was erected by Constantine I, and the city was surrounded by a double wall lying about 2 km (1.2 miles) to the west of the first wall, begun during the 5th century by Theodosius II. The city was built on seven hills as well as on the Golden Horn and the Sea of Marmara, and thus presented an impregnable fortress enclosing magnificent palaces, domes and towers.

It was also famed for architectural masterpieces such as the church of Hagia Sophia, the sacred palace of the emperors, the hippodrome, and the Golden Gate, lining the arcaded avenues and squares. Constantinople contained numerous artistic and literary treasures before it was sacked in 1204 and 1453.^[3] It was virtually depopulated when it fell to the Ottoman Turks,^[4] but the city recovered rapidly, becoming once again by the mid 1600s the world's largest city as the Ottoman capital Istanbul.^[1]

The Silk Road (from German: Seidenstraße) or Silk Route is a modern term referring to a historical network of interlinking trade routes across the Afro-Eurasian landmass that connected East, South, and Western Asia with the Mediterranean and European world, as well as parts of North and East Africa. Extending 4,000 miles (6,500 km), the Silk Road gets its name from the lucrative Chinese silk trade along it, which began during the Han Dynasty (206 BC – 220 AD). The central Asian sections of the trade routes were expanded around 114 BC by the Han dynasty,^[1]^{[not in citation given]} largely through the missions and explorations of Zhang Qian,^[2] but earlier trade routes across the continents already existed.^{[citation needed]}

Trade on the Silk Road was a significant factor in the development of the civilizations of China, India, Persia, Europe and Arabia. Though silk was certainly the major trade item from China, many other goods were traded, and various technologies, religions and philosophies, as well as the bubonic plague (the "Black Death"), also traveled along the Silk Routes.

The main traders during Antiquity were the Indian and Bactrian traders, then from the 5th to the 8th century the Sogdian traders, then afterward the Arab and Persian traders.

Who Was Albert Pike?

Three World Wars
One message that Albert Pike received from his "spirit guide," :
terjemahan:
Perang Dunia Pertama: agar Illuminati dapat menggulingkan kekuasaan Tzar di Rusia dan merubah negara tersebut menjadi kubu Komunisme-Atheistik. Perselisihan-perselisihan antara Kekaisaran Inggris dan Jerman yang digerakkan oleh para Agentur Illuminati dihidupkan untuk menimbulkan perang ini. Setelah perang selesai, Komunisme dibangun dan digunakan untuk menghancurkan pemerintahan-pemerintahan lainnya serta untuk memperlemah agama-agama.

Perang Dunia Kedua: dihasut dengan memanfaatkan perselisihan-perselisihan yang terjadi antara Politik Fasis dengan Zionis. Dengan peperangan ini maka ia akan menghancurkan Naziisme dan kekuatan Politik Zionis akan meningkat dan semakin kuat, dengan demikian negara Israel yang berdaulat dapat didirikan di Palestin. Selama berlangsungnya perang dunia kedua, kekuatan Komunisme Internasional dibangunkan sampai kekuatannya sebanding dengan kekuatan umat Kristian. Pada tahap ini ia ditahan serta diawasi sehingga diperlukan dalam pergolakan akhir masyarakat.

Perang Dunia Ketiga: dihasut dengan memanfaatkan perselisihan-perselisihan antara Politik Zionis dengan Para Pemimpin Dunia Islam yang digerakkan oleh para agentur Illuminati. Peperangan diarahkan sedemikian rupa dengan mengadu-domba Islam dengan Politik Zionis (termasuk Negara Israel) yang akan saling menghancurkan, sementara pada waktu yang bersamaan negara-negara lainnya, dipecah-belah untuk saling bertentangan satu-sama lain dalam masalah ini, mereka akan dipaksa untuk berperang sampai kepada sebuah keadaan keleletihan yang merata baik secara fizikal, mental, spiritual maupun ekonomi.

Albert Pike (December 29, 1809–April 2, 1891)

An attorney, soldier, writer, and Freemason. Pike is the only Confederatemilitary officer or figure to be honored with an outdoor statue in Washington, D.C. (in Judiciary Square).

Very few outsiders know about the intimate plans of the architects of the New World Order. One such architect was Albert Pike, who in the 19th Century, established a framework for bringing about the One World Order. Based on a vision revealed to him, Albert Pike wrote out a blueprint of events that would play themselves out in the 20th century, with even more of these events yet to come. It is this blueprint which we believe unseen leaders are following today to engineer the planned Third and Final World War.

Pike was born on December 29, 1809, in Boston, studied at Harvard, then later served as a Brigadier-General in the Confederate Army. After the Civil War, Pike was found guilty of treason and jailed, only to be pardoned by fellow Freemason President Andrew Johnson on April 22, 1866, who met with him the next day at the White House. On June 20, 1867, Scottish Rite officials conferred upon Johnson the 4th - 32nd degrees, and he later went to Boston to dedicate a Masonic Temple. The only monument to a Confederate general in Washington, D.C. was erected in Pike’s honor, and it can be found between the Department of Labor building and the Municipal Building, between 3rd and 4th Streets, on D Street, NW.

Pike was a genius, able to read and write in 16 different languages. A 33rd degree Mason, he was one of the founding fathers, and head of the Ancient Accepted Scottish Rite of Freemasonry, being the Grand Commander of North American Freemasonry from 1859-1891. In 1869, he was a top leader in the Knights of the Ku Klux Klan. In 1871, he wrote the 861 page Masonic handbook known as the Morals and Dogma of the Ancient and Accepted Rite of Freemasonry.

Pike was said to be a Satanist, who indulged in the occult, and he apparently possessed a bracelet which he used to summon Lucifer, with whom he had constant communication. He was the Grand Master of a Luciferian group known as the Order of the Palladium (or Sovereign Council of Wisdom), which had been founded in Paris in 1737. Palladism had been brought to Greece from Egypt by Pythagoras in the fifth century, and it was this cult of Satan that was introduced to the inner circle of the Masonic lodges. It was aligned with the Palladium of the Templars. In 1801, Issac Long, a Jew, brought a statue of Baphomet (Satan) to Charleston, South Carolina, where he helped to establish the Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite. Long apparently chose Charleston because it was geographically located on the 33rd parallel of latitude (incidentally, so is Baghdad), and this council is considered to be the Mother Supreme Council of all Masonic Lodges of the World.

Pike was Long’s successor, and he changed the name of the Order to the New and Reformed Palladian Rite (or Reformed Palladium). The Order contained two degrees: 1) Adelph (or Brother), and 2) Companion of Ulysses (or Companion of Penelope). Pike’s right-hand man was Phileas Walder, from Switzerland, who was a former Lutheran minister, a Masonic leader, occultist, and spiritualist. Pike also worked closely with Giusseppe Mazzini of Italy (1805-1872) who was a 33rd degree Mason, who became head of the Illuminati in 1834, and who founded the Mafia in 1860. Together with Mazzini, Lord Henry Palmerston of England (1784-1865, 33rd degree Mason), and Otto von Bismarck from Germany (1815-1898, 33rd degree Mason), Albert Pike intended to use the Palladian Rite to create a Satanic umbrella group that would tie all Masonic groups together.

Because of Mazzini’s revolutionary activities in Europe, the Illuminati had to go underground. In addition to the Supreme Council in Charleston, South Carolina, Pike established Supreme Councils in Rome, Italy (led by Mazzini); London, England (led by Palmerston); and Berlin, Germany (led by Bismarck). He set up 23 subordinate councils in strategic places throughout the world, including five Grand Central Directories in Washington, DC (North America), Montevideo (South America), Naples (Europe), Calcutta (Asia), and Mauritius (Africa), which were used to gather information. All of these branches have been the secret headquarters for the Illuminati’s activities ever since.

Morals and Dogma

One of the major sourcebooks of Masonic doctrine is Morals and Dogma of the Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite of Masonry, written in 1871 by Albert Pike, and is considered to be the “Mason’s guide for daily living… In it Masonry is a search after Light…”

In Morals and Dogma, Pike wrote: “Every Masonic lodge is a temple of religion; and its teachings are instruction in religion…Masonry, like all religions, all the Mysteries, Hermeticism and Alchemy, conceals its secrets from all except the Adepts and Sages, or the Elect, and uses false explanations and misinterpretations of its symbols to mislead…to conceal the Truth, which it calls Light, from them, and to draw them away from it… The truth must be kept secret, and the masses need a teaching proportioned to their imperfect reason… every man’s conception of God must be proportioned to his mental cultivation, and intellectual powers, and moral excellence. God is, as man conceives him, the reflected image of man himself.”

The next statement reduces the Masonic philosophy to a single premise. Pike writes: “The true name of Satan, the Kabalists say, is that of Yahveh reversed; for Satan is not a black god… Lucifer, the Light Bearer! Strange and mysterious name to give to the Spirit of Darkness! Lucifer, the Son of the Morning! Is it he who bears the Light…Doubt it not!”

Albert Pike explained in Morals & Dogma how the true nature of Freemasonry is kept a secret from Masons of lower degrees:
“The Blue Degrees are but the outer court or portico of the Temple. Part of the symbols are displayed there to the Initiate, but he is intentionally misled by false interpretations. It is not intended that he shall understand them; but it is intended that he shall imagine he understands them. Their true explication is reserved for the Adepts, the Princes of Masonry… It is well enough for the mass of those called Masons, to imagine that all is contained in the Blue Degrees; and whoso attempts to undeceive them will labor in vain.”

One World Order

In 1859, Albert Pike, who was fascinated with the idea of a one-world government, was chosen to coordinate Illuminati activities in the United States. He said they needed to create a political party that would keep the world fighting, until they could bring peace. Pike said it would be done “with tongue and pen, with all our open and secret influences, with the purse, and if need be, with the sword…”

In a letter dated January 22, 1870, Mazzini wrote to Pike, alluding to Pike’s New and Reformed Palladian Rite:

“We must allow all of the federations to continue just as they are, with their systems, their central authorities and diverse modes of correspondence between high grades of the same rite, organized as they are at present, but we must create a super rite, which will remain unknown, to which we will call those Masons of high degree whom we shall select. With regard to our brothers in Masonry, these men must be pledged to the strictest secrecy. Through this supreme rite, we will govern all Freemasonry which will become the one International Center, the more powerful because its direction will be unknown.”

Three World Wars

As do most occultists, Albert Pike had a “spirit guide,” who dispensed “Divine Wisdom” and enlightened him regarding how to achieve the New World Order. A “spirit guide” is a “being” who meets someone who has given themselves over to the practice of the occult; however, people who are practitioners of the New Age Religion do not view this as a bad thing. In fact, they would strongly argue that they are filled with happiness and joy by interacting with their “spirit guides”.

One message that Albert Pike received from his “spirit guide,” and which in reality we know to be a demonic vision, he described in a letter that he wrote to Mazzini, dated August 15, 1871. This letter graphically outlined plans for three world wars that were seen as necessary to bring about the One World Order, and we can marvel at how accurately it has predicted events that have already taken place. This is not because the devil has powers of prophecy, but because his agents have undertaken to manipulate political events to closely follow his designs. For a short time, this letter was on display in the British Museum Library in London, and it was copied by William Guy Carr, former Intelligence Officer in the Royal Canadian Navy.

“The First World War must be brought about in order to permit the Illuminati to overthrow the power of the Czars in Russia and of making that country a fortress of atheistic Communism. The divergences caused by the “agentur” (agents) of the Illuminati between the British and Germanic Empires will be used to foment this war. At the end of the war, Communism will be built and used in order to destroy the other governments and in order to weaken the religions.”

Students of history will recognize that the political alliances of England on one side and Germany on the other, forged between 1871 and 1898 by Otto von Bismarck, co-conspirator of Albert Pike, were instrumental in bringing about the First World War.

“The Second World War must be fomented by taking advantage of the differences between the Fascists and the political Zionists. This war must be brought about so that Nazism is destroyed and that the political Zionism be strong enough to institute a sovereign state of Israel in Palestine. During the Second World War, International Communism must become strong enough in order to balance Christendom, which would be then restrained and held in check until the time when we would need it for the final social cataclysm.”

After this Second World War, Communism was made strong enough to begin taking over weaker governments. In 1945, at the Potsdam Conference between Truman, Churchill, and Stalin, a large portion of Europe was simply handed over to Russia, and on the other side of the world, the aftermath of the war with Japan helped to sweep the tide of Communism into China.

“The Third World War must be fomented by taking advantage of the differences caused by the “agentur” of the “Illuminati” between the political Zionists and the leaders of Islamic World. The war must be conducted in such a way that Islam (the Moslem Arabic World) and political Zionism (the State of Israel) mutually destroy each other. Meanwhile the other nations, once more divided on this issue will be constrained to fight to the point of complete physical, moral, spiritual and economical exhaustion…We shall unleash the Nihilists and the atheists, and we shall provoke a formidable social cataclysm which in all its horror will show clearly to the nations the effect of absolute atheism, origin of savagery and of the most bloody turmoil. Then everywhere, the citizens, obliged to defend themselves against the world minority of revolutionaries, will exterminate those destroyers of civilization, and the multitude, disillusioned with Christianity, whose deistic spirits will from that moment be without compass or direction, anxious for an ideal, but without knowing where to render its adoration, will receive the true light through the universal manifestation of the pure doctrine of Lucifer, brought finally out in the public view. This manifestation will result from the general reactionary movement which will follow the destruction of Christianity and atheism, both conquered and exterminated at the same time.”

Since the terrorist attacks of Sept 11, 2001, world events in the Middle East show a growing unrest and instability between Jews and Arabs. This is completely in line with the call for a Third World War to be fought between the two, and their allies on both sides. This Third World War is still to come, and recent events show us that it is not far off.

assalamalaikum, according to my understanding the chinese will emerge as the gogs and the magogs after the collapse of the u.s.a., you see the chinese people were always interested in increasing their population which matches with the description of gogs and magogs by prophet muhammed(pbuh), the chinese people have been known for spreading chaos and corruption on earth and this was also what was gogs and magogs famous for, again it is said that after the collapse of dajjal the gogs and magogs will come out and we can see that if u.s.a. collapses it is china which will emerge as the next super power, again the gogs and magogs are described as people with flat faces and with oblique eyes and this matches with the facial description of chinese people,again in the hadeeth it is given that gogs and magogs are described with drastic variation in heights and we find chinese people some very tall and some very short and again we find in the hadeeth that the “arrows” of gogs and magogs will be used by muslims and we find that the chinese missile technology is being used by many of the muslim nations like pakistan, iran, syria, jordan, lastly it is ONLY ALLAHSUBHANATALA who knows the best, ALLAHHAFIZ.

This is truly an astounding revelation… Israeli, ahem, I mean the ZIONIST media has itself forewarned of the war of “Gog & Magog” (Yajuj & Majuj) and “Koka & Vikoka” of the Hindu texts.

What has got me thinking is the concept of savage Manchurians and Mongols, Tartars being the descendants of Gog & Magog.

China seems like a most possible candidate. Russia too. Many inter-faith scholars have suggested that the Scandinavian people (descendants of Vikings especially red-haired Celts) are the people referred to as Gog & Magog. The Russians can also be deemed as such. And the Chinese, well, they practically are similar to the savage Mongols except that they have advanced much now. Nevertheless, as a staunch follower of Islam, we believe that in brief chronological terms, The Dajjal’s advent will occur first, then the arrival of Mahdi, next the descent of Prophet Jesus (peace be upon him) and THEN the war of Gog & Magog will take place.

I visited respected Dr. Israr Ahmed a few days ago, he made a hint that possibly in the coming year of turmoil, China too like Russia will remain silent and in the backdrop during all global chaos and soon both of them might make their moves as “Gog & Magog” (Wallahu A’alam) Allah Knows Best!

Wasalam

Hmm, memandangkan berita Dajjal, Gog dan Magog ini adalag berita ghaib, yang tidak tahu bila munculnya (mungkin pula sudah muncul #??), maka berbagai pandangan dilontarkan. Bergantung kepada kita bagaimana menyimpulkannya. Pandangan diatas berdasarkan beberapa maksud hadis nabi juga, bukan sekadar pendapat peribadi. Ya, jadinya jangan biarkan diri dan fikiran kita terhenti dan jumud.

Tidak dapat dielakkan adanya campur tangan manusia dalam percaturan dan peristiwa yang berlaku sejak akhir-akhir ini. Hasil dari penelitian menyeluruh terhadap fakta dan tanda membuatkan kita lebih hampir mengetahui rahsia ghaib ini. Untuk apa? Hanya untuk tahu sahaja atau untuk untuk bermegah dan menghebahkannya? Bergantung sejauh mana tahap kecerdikan sesaorang manusia itu.

I certainly believe that Gog and Magog are the ‘pagan nations’ referred to in the Catholic Bible’s footnotes (New American Bible). In the modern world those pagan nations include America, Britain, Europe and allies controlled and under the influence of Western popular culture and economics (ruled by the Satanic Rothschilds)

America has the words ‘In God we trust’ written all over their currency – worshipping mammon! The Americans pledge allegiance to a flag – not God! They are the most corrupt democracy on the planet, even though they vow under an oath when they take office for any position of influence or power! They are the docile, hypocritical and imbecilic puppets of the satanic Rothschilds. They are destined for destruction; and so are their allies. ‘The road to hell is wide and there are many who travel upon it.’
Even though I live in that culture, I hate it, and will be cheering for Russian, Chinese, etc nations to destroy it completely. We know who wins that war.

KESEDARAN TELAH MUNCUL DI MANA-MANA, APAKAH YANG BOLEH KITA LAKUKAN?

Kecelaruan dan ketakutan mulai mendesak. Apakah akar dan tunjang agama akan terbungkas kerana situasi meruncing ini? "Pada pagi hari mereka beriman tetapi kufur diwaktu petang..... " Dajjal di mana? Sudahkah menjelma diluar pengetahuan kita? dan yang pastinya !

Kekurangan ilmu menyebabkan manusia menyembah selain "Dia".

Oleh: Webster G. Tarpley

On July 21, the present writer offered the evaluation that an attack on Iran by the United States and Israel was now emphatically back on the agenda after a two-year hiatus.¹ More than two weeks after issuing that warning, it is possible to offer a second installment of evidence to buttress the original finding. The author considers that this evidence is now sufficient to confirm the July 21 analysis. The contours of the coming conflagration are becoming somewhat more distinct, and give us reason to fear not just a Middle East regional war, but possibly even a world war, with increasing danger that nuclear weapons will come into play.

Fidel Castro Convokes Parliament, Issues Dramatic War Warning

The most dramatic and outspoken confirmation of the views expressed here on July 21 comes from Fidel Castro, the first secretary of the Cuban Communist Party, and the de facto head of state of Cuba. During the spring and summer of 2010, Castro has referred several times to the growing war danger among the United States, Israel, and Iran. On August 8, Castro took the unusual step of convening a special session of the Cuban parliament to discuss the nuclear war danger threatening the peace of the world. Essentially, Castro called for the worldwide mobilization of peace-loving forces to avoid the worst, and included a special personal appeal to Obama.

Castro: Hundreds Of Millions Of Deaths

According to the Cuban News Agency, this war avoidance agenda ‘was the purpose of the Cuban Revolution leader’s address to the Cuban parliament summoned for an extraordinary session in Havana, due to the urgency of mobilizing the world, faced with the danger of a nuclear war that would be triggered by a US-Israeli led aggression on Iran.’ Castro said that Obama, ‘in the instant he gives the order, which is the only one he could give due to the power, speed and countless number of missiles accumulated in an absurd competition between powers, he would be ordering the instant death not only of hundreds of millions of people, including, an immeasurable number of inhabitants of his own country, but also the crews of all US ships in the seas near Iran.” “Simultaneously, the war would break out in the Near and Far East and across Eurasia,” said Fidel. Otherwise, if the war breaks out, the current social order will abruptly vanish and the price will be much higher, Fidel warned.’²

Whatever one may think of Castro personally and politically, he is unquestionably one of the longest-serving national leaders in today’s world, and brings to the table his experience during the Cuban missile crisis of October 1962. Castro knows, in short, what a nuclear confrontation looks like from the inside. The American public would do well to put aside the arrogance and impudence of the US mass media and pay attention to why this sick old man is putting so much of his flagging energy into an attempt to alert the world to a danger which is being widely ignored.

US Media Blackout On War News Like Summer 1914

Not surprisingly, the controlled Wall Street news media in the United States did everything possible to trivialize, denigrate and ridicule this dramatic warning. Frivolity and inanity rule US news coverage this summer. The National Socialists had a word for this – Nachrichtensperre, the embargo of real news. To the extent they noticed Castro at all, the US networks focused on the state of Castro’s health, and on the soap opera rivalry between Fidel and his brother Raul, who had replaced him in the presidency several years ago. The account posted on CNN, in particular, avoided any direct reference to the questionable looming nuclear war until an oblique allusion in the final paragraph. The Time magazine article gave the war issue half a sentence, with no elaboration and no explanation. Many newspapers relied on the Associated Press wire account, which did everything possible to downplay the urgency of Castro’s theme. This policy was typical of the attitude assumed by the US media starting several months earlier, which was to assiduously avoid the troubling hard news being generated in the Middle East in favor of an exclusive focus on domestic social wedge issues, including the New York City mosque, gay marriage, and the Arizona immigration law. The result is that the American people, somewhat like many Europeans of August 1914, are essentially living in a dream world, even as the momentum for global tragedy builds up in many corners of the globe. When the shooting started in August 1914, many in Europe were surprised, having thought that the Sarajevo incident of several weeks earlier was no longer a current concern. For those Europeans, the shock of reality came in the form of declarations of war and mobilization decrees. For today’s world, the shock may be even more abrupt.

A Flurry Of Incidents Along The Main Fronts

The clash which is materializing pits a group of countries including most probably the United States, Israel, the United Kingdom, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, and perhaps some others against a rival coalition including the government of Lebanon, the Hezbollah organization, Iran, and Syria, joined by guerrilla forces in Yemen, Somalia, Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan, and elsewhere. During the past two to three weeks, unusual military incidents have occurred at the main flash-points where these rival coalitions are likely to collide

Israel-Lebanon Border Shootings: A Warning From Hezbollah?

The tense border between Israel and Lebanon is clearly one of these flashpoints. Here the Israeli forces confront a combination of the Lebanese national army along with independent units of heavily armed Hezbollah fighters. On August 3, this border was the scene of the most serious shooting incident since the Israel-Lebanon war of four years ago. A firefight started after the Israeli army began pruning a tree along the border. An Israeli lieutenant colonel was killed, an Israeli major severely wounded, and several Lebanese soldiers and a journalist killed. The casualties among Israeli officers suggest that this incident was a warning delivered by Hezbollah against the Israelis in the general context of rising tension. According to the Chinese news agency, ‘Israeli Defense Minister Ehud Barak on Wednesday said the “unplanned” border clash on Tuesday between Lebanese Army Forces (LAF) and Israel Defense Forces (IDF) soldiers would not widen into a real crisis. An Israel Defense Forces (IDF) officer and four Lebanese were killed on Tuesday during a border clash, the fiercest one since the fighting between Israel and the Lebanon-based Shiite group Hezbollah four years ago.’

According to press accounts, the United States quickly intervened to prevent the Israelis from making this clash the detonator for military operations against Lebanon and possibly Syria on a larger scale: ‘The United States … voiced “greatest concern” over the deadly military clashes along the Israel-Lebanon border, urging both the Israeli and Lebanese sides to exercise “maximum restraint.” “We deeply regret the loss of life; we urge both sides to exercise maximum restraint to avoid an escalation and maintain the cease-fire that is now in place,” State Department spokesman Philip Crowley told reporters at the daily press briefing.’³ The shooting may have been connected to the imminent delivery of a United Nations report on the assassination of former Lebanese Prime Minister Rafik Hariri, which is expected to accuse Hezbollah. In a sign of continuing tension, Israel on August 8 fired warning shots at a Lebanese fishing boat in the eastern Mediterranean.

Japanese Tanker Attacked In Hormuz

A second front in the looming war is of course the Persian/Arabian Gulf and especially the critical choke-point of the straits of Hormuz, where Iran, if attacked, can be expected to retaliate against oil tanker traffic. The Straits of Hormuz also lend themselves to the creation of a war provocation by the US-led side, quite possibly in the form of a new Gulf of Tonkin incident. Political observers were therefore alarmed on July 28, when an explosion damaged the hull of a Japanese supertanker transiting Hormuz. According to a wire dispatch, ‘a damaged Japanese oil tanker … headed back to the United Arab Emirates where officials hope to determine what caused an onboard explosion. Japan’s transport ministry said the M. Star was passing through the Strait of Hormuz … with about two million barrels of crude oil when the crew reported a blast. Japan’s Mitsui O.S.K. Lines said that despite the explosion, the ship’s tanks did not rupture and that no oil is leaking.’⁴

Within a few days, the UAE authorities were claiming that this was indeed a suicide attack by al Qaeda-liked terrorists using a small boat loaded with homemade explosive: ‘The United Arab Emirates said Friday that a Japanese oil tanker was hit by an explosives-laden dinghy in the Persian Gulf in what would be the first attack in the strategic waterway where millions of barrels of oil are transported each day. The report — which came days after an al-Qaida-linked group claimed responsibility for attacking the vessel — raised fears about the vulnerability of the Strait of Hormuz, a vital shipping lane for many petroleum exporting countries. … But if the UAE report is confirmed, the July 28 incident would be the first militant attack in the strait, a narrow chokepoint between Oman and Iran…. A group known as the Abdullah Azzam Brigades said it had carried out a suicide attack against the tanker to avenge the plunder of Muslim wealth and to destabilize international markets. The statement was issued by al-Qaida’s communications wing, the al-Fajr Media Center and posted on militant websites.’⁵ A collateral effect of the damage to the tanker was to begin pushing the world price of oil up above $80 per barrel, anticipating on a small scale the massive price increase which the Wall Street financial interests would like to occur as part of their desperate strategy to save the US dollar in extremis.

Hamas Rockets Fired From Egyptian Sinai

Another front where Israeli forces are facing a pro-Iranian guerrilla movement is the Gaza Strip, which is under the political control of the Hamas movement. An incident on August 2, the day before the shooting started on the Israel-Lebanon border, suggested that Hamas had acquired the ability to operate not just out of Gaza, but also in other parts of the Egyptian territory of the Sinai Peninsula. It was in August 2 that four or five Grad rockets were apparently fired from Egyptian territory against the Israeli city of Eilat and the Jordanian port of Aqaba. It should be recalled that the scene of the shooting is one of the most sensitive points in the entire Middle East, where Egypt, Israel, Jordan, and Saudi Arabia come together at the Gulf of Aqaba, the northeastern end of the Red Sea. One Jordanian was killed, and damage was otherwise slight, but Israel was alarmed enough to send the head of its Shin Beth intelligence agency to meet with his Egyptian counterpart.

Within a few days, Egypt confirmed that Palestinians from Gaza, quite possibly Hamas, had launched the rockets: ‘Egypt, contradicting its initial denials, has acknowledged that Gaza militants operating in the country’s Sinai Peninsula launched the deadly rocket attacks on Israel and Jordan earlier this week. At least five rockets hit the Red Sea border area Monday, killing one Jordanian and wounding at least three others. Egypt’s state news agency … blamed Palestinian factions from the Hamas-ruled Gaza Strip, operating in the neighboring Sinai Peninsula, for the rocket volley. This is the second attack believed to originate from the Sinai in four months, highlighting Egypt’s ongoing internal security problems in the largely lawless, desert frontier.’⁶ Any increase in the military potential of Hamas is a very ominous sign for the Israelis.

Mullen Admits US War Plan Is Ready — Thanks To Petraeus

On Sunday, August 1, US Admiral Mike Mullen, the chairman of the Pentagon’s Joint Chiefs of Staff, shifted decidedly away from his personal brand of conciliatory rhetoric and towards the language of naked threats against Iran. Mullen stressed that the United States does indeed possess a war plan against Iran. According to one summary, ‘Barack Obama’s main military adviser said today the US does have a plan to attack Iran should it become needed as a means of stopping the Tehran regime from acquiring nuclear weapons….Admiral Mike Mullen, chairman of the joint chiefs of staff and the country’s highest ranking officer, was asked by Meet the Press on NBC whether the military had a plan to attack Iran. “We do,” he replied…. He said it was unacceptable for Iran to obtain nuclear weapons, but he said that equally he would be “extremely concerned” about the prospect of a military engagement…. Striking Iran could have “unintended consequences that are difficult to predict in what is an incredibly unstable part of the world”…. As Mullen put it: “I hope we don’t get to that, but it’s an important option and it’s one that’s well understood.”’⁷

The war plan in question would have been drawn up by the US Central Command, mainly during the time that it was run by General David Petraeus, the neocon leader who has now emerged as the virtual military czar of the hapless Obama regime. If war comes, Petraeus will gain immeasurably in power, with the obvious temptation to decree martial law.

Iranian Defense Minister: Mullen’s Threats ‘Fascistic’

Mullen’s threats were quickly answered by a chorus of bellicose replies from the Iranian side. ‘The official Iranian news agency IRNA quoted Revolutionary Guard deputy chief Yadollah Javani as saying …that security in the Persian Gulf would be jeopardized “if Americans commit the slightest mistake.”’⁸ Speaking from Moscow, Iranian Foreign Minister Mottaki also rejected Mullen’s threats in vehement terms: ‘”In case of an attack against Iran, their destiny will be worse than their pitiable destiny in Iraq and Afghanistan,”…Mottaki hoped that better sense would prevail in Washington, saying “they said they would go to some places and they went.” “But we have seen what happened to them. We think there are still rational people in America… who will not put the American dignity on sale.” … Foreign ministry spokesman Ramin Mehmanparast also dismissed Mullen’s remarks. “We witness such inappropriate remarks by these American military officials,” he told reporters at his weekly news conference in Tehran. “We think the reason behind it stems from the consecutive (US) defeats in the region and its military adventurism which has resulted in deaths of innocent citizens and of their own forces.”’

Iran’s Defence Minister Ahmad Vahidi ‘described Mullen’s comments as “fascistic.” “Such remarks are in contradiction to their claims of change that they are after dialogue and peace,” Vahidi was quoted as saying by state news agency IRNA. “They show that they are unable to stand against the will of Iran. Having plans to attack an independent nation… in the third millennium is a clear violation of the UN charter.”’⁹ These were eminently newsworthy exchanges, but so far as is known none of the Iranian replies made it onto the Wall Street-controlled US television evening news.

Obama The War Options Monster

In the meantime, Obama is revealing himself more and more as the most extreme warmonger among major US politicians, a niche which he seized in 2007 during the presidential campaign, although many pathetic left liberals still cannot grasp the aggressive designs of which Obama is the bearer. Back during the regime of Bush the younger, the standard White House jargon for issuing a threat against Iran was the mantra that “all options are on the table.” Over the past two years, Obama has been increasingly speaking this language more and more. Obama told Newsweek on May 17, 2009, in advance of a visit by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu: “I’ve been very clear that I don’t take any options off the table with respect to Iran. I don’t take options off the table when it comes to US security, period.”’¹⁰

About a year later, on May 4, 2010, in the wake of reports that Iran and Syria were furnishing Hezbollah with new and more effective ballistic missiles, an antiwar blogger noted: ‘“The continued presence of all options on the table” — this is the disappointing message which a Nobel Peace Prize laureate dispatches internationally, in his latest interview with CBS news….’¹¹ Most recently, Obama told Israeli television on July 7: ‘we are going to continue to keep the door open for a diplomatic resolution of this challenge. But I assure you that I have not taken options off the table.”¹² In response to this, Netanyahu expressed cautious optimism that he had the current tenant of the White House in his pocket in the same way that he was able to dominate Bush: “But I am saying that the president’s position that all options are on the table might actually have the only real effect on Iran, if they think it’s true,” commented Netanyahu.¹³

Achmadinejad: US Will Strike Two Countries In The Next Three Months

Even before the volley of threats from Admiral Mullen, Iranian President Achmadinejad had issued his forecast of a US attack, probably involving his country. Achmadinejad said that the United States and Israel had ‘decided to attack at least two countries in the region in the next three months…” Ahmadinejad said Iran had “very precise information that the Americans have hatched a plot, according to which they are to wage a psychological war against Iran”. He also criticized the US-led drive for global sanctions to pressure Tehran over the nuclear issue. “The logic that they can persuade us to negotiate through sanctions is just a failure,” Ahmadinejad said.’¹⁴

Iranian Defense Minister Vahidi Warns Israel

One day earlier, Iranian Defense Minister Vahidi had issued a separate warning of his own addressed to Israel. Vahidi stated that ‘”any injudicious action” will lead to the annihilation of the Israeli regime. “Any injudicious action of Israel will trigger the countdown of its destruction….Israel is facing many setbacks in resolving its domestic, regional and international problems. Therefore, it is trying to get rid of this heavy burden through putting the blame on others,” he added. The Iranian defense minister reiterated that public pressure on Israeli officials has prompted them to have some “false illusions” in their minds,’ a Syrian news service reported.¹⁵

The Devine Plan

As noted in the essay of July 21, the current deployment of US forces in Afghanistan and Iraq may well represent a grave weakness in the US military position in the region, since these fragmented forces are liable to be cut off and encircled by regular and a regular Iranian and pro-Iranian forces in case of general war. An awareness of this threat in US ruling circles is giving rise to more frequent calls to ratchet the Afghanistan adventure down to a more manageable level, so as not to give the Iranians such an opportunity. One of the clearest calls of this type has come from Jack Devine, the former deputy director of the CIA and head of the clandestine service. In an op-ed, Devine advocated getting US Army and Marine land forces largely out of Afghanistan, while perpetuating chaos there through a policy of predator drones for assassinations combined with special forces in small numbers and especially CIA negotiations with the principal warlords and druglords. This kind of the strategy has worked before, and it would work again, Devine argued: ‘In the ’80s we essentially ended the Cold War with a well-funded and broadly supported covert action program. In 2001, under similar political circumstances, a small band of CIA operators restored old ties to Afghan tribal leaders, teamed up with U.S. Special Forces and, backed with U.S. air power, toppled the Taliban in a matter of weeks.’ … A smart covert action program should rest on worst-case scenarios. Afghanistan will likely enter a period of heightened instability leading up to and following our planned 2012 departure, so we should figure out now which tribal leaders—and, under specially negotiated arrangements, which Taliban factions—we could establish productive relationships with. We must also consider the possibility that our departure could precipitate the eventual collapse of the Karzai government. Thus we should cultivate relationships with leaders inside and outside the current regime who are most likely to fill the power vacuum.’¹⁶ Not mentioned was the tremendous advantage that would accrue to the CIA by controlling the totality of the Afghanistan opium, heroin, and morphine production, which would put the agency in a position to vastly increase its influence over American government and society for decades to come.

Wikileaks And Assange: Part Of The War Buildup

Against the backdrop of these confused alarms of war, a group of intelligence community provocateurs calling themselves Wikileaks saw fit to publish a document dump of more than 90,000 low level specimens of US cable traffic from Afghanistan, primarily of the secret and sub-secret classifications. No scandals against Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld, Rice, Powell, Obama, Biden, Gates, or any other top officials were contained among these dispatches. Instead, the documents tend to support the CIA’s thesis that ‘Osama bin Laden’ is an actual living person and a powerful enemy of the United States– a manifest absurdity. Assange is also on record as saying that he finds challenges to the US official story of September 11, 2001 an annoyance.¹⁷ Assange’s actions are evidently inspired by some combination of George Soros, Cass Sunstein, and Samantha Power of the Obama National Security Council. A separate essay on this important theme will be forthcoming shortly.

For the moment it is enough to note that the mental strategic map which emerges from the Wikileaks document dump faithfully mirrors the intentions of some of the most dangerous factions in the US intelligence community. The interpretations of the document dump which were conveniently trumpeted by such ruling class news organs as the New York Times, the London Guardian, and Der Spiegel of Germany conveniently stress that the Afghanistan war is futile, while the real enemies of the United States and the Western world in general are the treacherous backstabbers of Pakistan who support the Taliban and kill American soldiers, and of course the Iranians, who do everything possible to defeat the US presence in the areas of western Afghanistan closest to their borders. In short, anyone creating an imperialist policy on the basis of the lessons of the Wikileaks document dump would tend to converge on something like the Devine plan, along with vigorous measures against both Pakistan and Iran. The much-touted document dump, which has been abundantly publicized by the controlled media of the world, is thus revealed as a CIA mind control operation in the tradition of Daniel Ellsberg and the 1971 Pentagon papers, which was a similar limited hang out of self-serving disinformation by the spook community, designed to manipulate public opinion.

British Prime Minister Cameron: Nuclear Klutz

British Prime Minister David Cameron appears to have a mind like a rag bag: lacking in mental discipline and astuteness, he appears to blurt out either total nonsense or fragments of the secret briefings he has been given. This means that important state secrets can sometimes be gleaned from what otherwise seemed to be his idiotic malapropisms. An example is Cameron’s early August charge that Iran already possesses nuclear weapons. Had Cameron’s Downing Street handlers jumped the gun, prepping him in advance for the war speech he might have to give a few weeks down the line? The BBC commented: ‘Labour has accused David Cameron of committing a gaffe by mistakenly claiming Iran has a nuclear weapon. Asked why he was backing Turkey to join the EU, he said it could help solve the world’s problems, “like the Middle East peace process, like the fact that Iran has got a nuclear weapon”. A No 10 source said the PM “misspoke”, later adding he had been talking about Iran’s pursuit of nuclear weapons. But Labour said he was becoming a “foreign policy klutz.”’¹⁸ In reality, Cameron had tipped his hand too much.

Hariri Probe Targets Hezbollah

There is every indication that the United Nations commission investigating the February 2005 murder of former Lebanese Prime Minister Rafik Hariri will attempt to frame Hezbollah for this crime, while ignoring strong circumstantial evidence implicating the United States, the United Kingdom, and Israel, to name just a few. Hezbollah leaders have gotten out in front of the commission’s findings with a preventive condemnation of the likely fixed verdict. As a new mania news source reports, ‘Lebanon’s Hezbollah Resistance Movement warns against falsely accusing its members of involvement in the assassination of Lebanon’s former premier Rafik Hariri. A top Hezbollah official, Sheikh Nabil Qaouq, … warned about the dire consequences of trying to link the resistance movement to the assassination and called such accusations “dangerous.” Qaouq said the indictment of Hezbollah members was part of a US and Israeli conspiracy and called for the trial of the individuals, who testified in the case of Hariri’s assassination and whom Hezbollah regards as false witnesses, a Press TV correspondent reported…. “We will continue confronting this conspiracy … and we will consider any indictment against the resistance an Israeli-American fabrication executed through local or international means,” he added.’¹⁹ Part of the US-led strategy appears to be the attempt to drive a wedge between Syria and Iran over these Lebanese events. Whether this crude stratagem can succeed or not is uncertain.

Shapiro: New 9/11 Or New Oklahoma City Needed To Save Obama

A blunt and cynical appraisal of the crisis of the Obama regime and of Obama’s need for a wag the dog crisis to shore up his cratering poll numbers comes from Rob Shapiro, co-founder of the Progressive Policy Institute, a think tank close to the right wing Democrats of the Democratic Leadership Council. A Bilderberger activist, Shapiro served as a top official during the Clinton administration. An article in the London Financial Times about Obama’s alarming weakness contains this revealing assessment by Shapiro of how Obama might restore his authority: ‘“The bottom line here is that Americans don’t believe in President Obama’s leadership,” says Rob Shapiro, another former Clinton official and a supporter of Mr Obama. “He has to find some way between now and November of demonstrating that he is a leader who can command confidence and, short of a 9/11 event or an Oklahoma City bombing, I can’t think of how he could do that.”’²⁰

Barak And Barack

The last week in July saw the Washington visit of Israeli Defense Minister Ehud Barak, who came close on the heels of Prime Minister Netanyahu. According to Time magazine, Barak’s party line was that the economic sanctions imposed on Iran by the United Nations Security Council in early June are only a temporary expedient, and must be quickly followed by war. As the magazine reported, ‘Barak arrived in Washington this week with the message that not even the far-reaching sanctions adopted by the U.S. and its allies against Iran are likely to change Iran’s behavior. “It’s still time for sanctions,” he told the Washington Post in an interview. But “probably, at a certain point, we should realize that sanctions cannot work.” In an interview with the Washington Post, Barak stressed joint US-Israeli efforts in the area of anti-ballistic missile defense, noting that Israel is ‘now developing, together with the United States, the Super Arrow, a kind of a space-age kind of interceptor that protects us against incoming missiles from places like deep into Syria or from Iran.”²¹

Time identified Obama advisor Dennis Ross as a leading member of the US war party, suggesting that Ross is one of the handlers feeding Obama his belligerent “options” rhetoric and keeping the war option on the front burner. The magazine wrote: ‘Obama has … insisted that a military option remains “on the table.” That insistence could be consistent with the perspective of his key adviser on Iran, Dennis Ross, who wrote two years ago, “When we say we are not taking force off the table, that must be more than a slogan. It is essential that the Iranians continue to believe that they may well be playing with fire if they persist in their pursuit of nuclear weapons.” Regardless of whether force is ever used, Ross was arguing, the only way Tehran will back down is if it’s convinced it will face U.S. military action if it doesn’t.’²²

H. R. 1355: House Republicans Demand Aggressive War

The reactionary Republicans of the US House of Representatives claimed their part of the looming tragedy with a jingoistic draft resolution of genocidal intent, directed against Iran. As one commentator noted, ‘Republicans in the House or Representatives have unveiled House Resolution 1553, a resolution providing explicit support for an Israeli bombing campaign against Iran. The measure, introduced by Texas Republican Louie Gohmert and forty-six of his colleagues, endorses Israel’s use of “all means necessary” against Iran “including the use of military force.” “We have got to act,” Gohmert has said in regard to the measure. “We’ve got to get this done. We need to show our support for Israel. We need to quit playing games with this critical ally in such a difficult area.”’

As this commentator pointed out, ‘Gohemert’s resolution may be an unprecedented development — Congress has never endorsed pre-emptive military strikes by a foreign country. In fact, this measure is no small part of a neoconservative agenda to go to war with Iran. The green light resolution is precisely what John Bolton called for two weeks ago in a Wall Street Journal piece that reads as a playbook for dragging the US into military conflict with Iran.’²³ Such statements violate the Nonproliferation Treaty, since they represent direct military threats by a nuclear state against Iran, a non-nuclear state under that treaty.

Venezuela Threatened By The US Via Colombia

The notion that coming hostilities involving Iran could also be extended to the Latin American continent is plausibly argued by Russian analyst Nil Nikandrov of the Moscow Strategic Culture Foundation, the think tank associated with General Leonid Ivashov. Nikandrov points to the increasingly close relations between Iran and Venezuela to suggest that the conflagration may well be extended to this latter country as well. Here a likely scenario involves the US playing off Columbia against Venezuela in a classic exercise of the imperialist buck-passing favored by the Brzezinski faction. As Nikandrov argues, ‘Under B. Obama, the US started to actively reinforce the existing and set up new military bases along the borders of Venezuela. The US maintains 10 military bases in Columbia alone, though on top of that the Pentagon enjoys unrestricted access to the de facto occupied country’s own military infrastructures. US army and navy bases have also been promptly built in Costa Rica and Panama. Experts believe the list of potential targets of the forces deployed at the bases includes both Venezuela and its regional allies – Cuba, Nicaragua, and Ecuador. US military advisers are dispatched in increasing numbers to Guatemala, Honduras, and Salvador. Chavez speaks frequently about the threat posed by the US. This July, he mentioned several times the warnings about the higher than ever threat of the US aggression he received from a well-informed “secret friend” in Washington. Washington is waging a permanent smear campaign against Venezuela. Reports are circulated that Chavez hosts ETA terrorists or guerrillas from Iran, Palestine, and Lebanon and helps them to penetrate the US. The disinformation, easily disproved by Venezuela, will certainly reemerge when the US and Israeli forces hit Iran’s “nuclear infrastructures”, airports, and army bases. Ignoring Washington’s ire, Chavez openly sides with Iran. He visited Tehran on a number of occasions and keeps inviting the Iranian leaders to Caracas. Chavez pledges not to abandon Iran in trouble. The US is keenly aware what the signals sent by Chavez mean: against the backdrop of the war in Afghanistan and the coming war in Iran, Venezuela’s taking its barrels offline would send the oil prices skyrocketing up to $200 per barrel and thus reanimate the global economic crisis.’²⁴ Unfortunately, increasing the price of oil is currently an enticement, rather than a deterrent, to the Anglo-American financiers.

A World War?

If things actually play out in this way, the resulting conflict, stretching from the Middle East to Latin America would indeed qualify as a new world war. One of the few bright spots in the present world intelligence picture is represented by the peace overtures to Chavez launched by the new Colombian President Manuel Santos in his inaugural address on August 6. Santos signaled a possible break with the reckless policies of his predecessor, Alvaro Uribe, who had acted as a provocateur under the direction of the United States. As the Voice of America was forced to concede, ‘The presidents of Colombia and Venezuela are set to meet … in an effort to repair a diplomatic break due to Venezuela’s alleged support of leftist rebels in Colombia. The security and trade partnership between the two countries has suffered during the past two years. The meeting in Santa Marta, Colombia, comes only three days after Juan Manuel Santos took the oath of office as Colombia’s president. The former defense minister used his inauguration speech on Saturday to try to set a new tone with Venezuela. He said that as president, he will seek peace with Colombia’s neighbors. He offered a frank and direct dialogue with Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez as soon as possible. In Caracas, Mr. Chavez welcomed the offer and said he would go to the meeting with an open heart and an extended hand.’²⁵

US Gambits To Antagonize China

At the same time that the exhausted and overstretched US military is preparing actions across a fast arc of countries stretching from Lebanon and Syria in the west to Pakistan in the east, the Obama regime is also assuming a decidedly bellicose demeanor in regard to China. Obama and company are evidently encouraged by their success in browbeating and blackmailing China into giving at least verbal assent to the latest round of UN Security Council economic sanctions against Iran. They are intent on creating diversions on the Chinese flanks to keep the Middle Kingdom tied down as much as possible in the moment that war might break out in the Middle East. Needless to say, this approach only underlines the inherent adventurism of the line currently dominant in Washington.

Hillary Meddles In The South China Sea

On the one hand, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has announced her intention to begin meddling on a grand scale in the already difficult disputes about islands and oil in the South China Sea, parts of which are claimed by China, Taiwan, Vietnam, the Philippines, Indonesia, and so forth. As the New York Times sums up Mrs. Clinton’s demarche: ‘Opening a new source of potential friction with China, the Obama administration is stepping into a tangled dispute between China and its smaller Asian neighbors over a string of strategically significant islands in the South China Sea. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton, speaking at an Asian regional security meeting in Vietnam, stressed that the United States remained neutral on which regional countries had stronger territorial claims to the islands. But she said that the United States had an interest in preserving free shipping in the area and that it would be willing to facilitate multilateral talks on the issue. Though presented as an offer to help ease tensions, the stance amounts to a sharp rebuke to China. Beijing has insisted for years that all the islands belong to China and that any disputes should be resolved by China. In March, senior Chinese officials pointedly warned their American counterparts that they would brook no interference in the South China Sea, which they called part of the “core interest” of sovereignty.’²⁶

US Nuclear Deal With Vietnam Directed Against China

Another prong of this attempt to keep the Chinese tied down in conflicts with hostile neighbors close to home is represented by the fast-moving negotiations between Washington and Hanoi for a nuclear technology sharing deal. This ploy obviously intends to scare the Chinese with the prospect of a nuclear-armed Vietnam, acting as a cat’s paw for the United States in the same way that the US is trying to use India. As the Wall Street Journal reported, ‘the Obama administration is in advanced negotiations to share nuclear fuel and technology with Vietnam in a deal that would allow Hanoi to enrich its own uranium—terms that critics on Capitol Hill say would undercut the more stringent demands the U.S. has been making of its partners in the Middle East. The State Department-led negotiations could unsettle China, which shares hundreds of miles of border with Vietnam. It is the latest example of the U.S.’s renewed assertiveness in South and Southeast Asia, as Washington strengthens ties with nations that have grown increasingly wary of Beijing’s growing regional might. U.S. officials familiar with the matter say negotiators have given a full nuclear-cooperation proposal to the communist country and former Cold War foe, and have started briefing House and Senate foreign-relations committees. A top U.S. official briefed on the negotiation said China hadn’t been consulted on the talks. “It doesn’t involve China,” the official said.’²⁷ In the first three months of this year, we experienced a phase of growing US-Chinese hostility centering on the refusal of Google to obey relevant Chinese law regarding the Internet. After that, we had a short interval of relative calm, with the Chinese allowing their renminbi currency to float upwards to a limited and symbolic extent, and also voting for the UN sanctions against Iran demanded by the US. Now, tensions have abruptly begun to rise rapidly again in the Far East.

China’s Dong Feng 21 D, The Carrier Killer

But the Chinese are growing tired of being threatened and bullied by the United States. One part of their response is the development of a new and powerful anti-ship missile, explicitly designed to sink US attack carriers. As the Associated Press reported, ‘U.S. naval planners are scrambling to deal with what analysts say is a game-changing weapon being developed by China — an unprecedented carrier-killing missile called the Dong Feng 21D that could be launched from land with enough accuracy to penetrate the defenses of even the most advanced moving aircraft carrier at a distance of more than 1,500 kilometers (900 miles).’²⁸ The last US aircraft carrier to be sunk by enemy action was the USS Princeton, which was lost to Japanese attacks during the Battle of Leyte Gulf off the Philippines in 1944.

CIA Veterans Urge Obama To Desist From Aggression

On August 3, the Veteran Intelligence Professionals for Sanity (VIPS), an association of retired intelligence officials, appealed to Obama to turn away from war while there was still time. This appeal was signed by Phil Giraldi, Larry Johnson, Ray McGovern, W. Patrick Lang, Coleen Rowley, and Ann Wright. This appeal states: ‘We write to alert you to the likelihood that Israel will attack Iran as early as this month [August 2010]. This would likely lead to a wider war. This can be stopped, but only if you move quickly to pre-empt an Israeli attack by publicly condemning such a move before it happens. … as we hope your advisers have told you, regime change, not Iranian nuclear weapons, is Israel’s primary concern.’²⁹

A New National Intelligence Estimate On Iran Is Pending

The VIPS cite, among the motivations for Israel to launch a quick preemptive attack and drag the United States into war, the possibility that the new National Intelligence Estimate on the Iranian nuclear weapons situation will reinforce the conclusion of the earlier NIE of December 2007 that there is no Iranian and nuclear weapons program. But this diagnosis appears to be overly optimistic, and does not take into account the growing power of the neocon faction at the expense of the Brzezinskyites which is reflected in the ascendancy of the neocon warlord Petraeus, as well as in Obamas own increasingly desperate and bellicose rhetoric. There is no doubt that the entire neocon faction is now fully mobilized with the overriding goal of concocting a new NIE which brands Iran as a de facto nuclear weapons state, thus making a direct US attack mandatory.

Among the reflections of this neocon agitation in the press, we can cite the article by Edward Jay Epstein in which the author, just as predicted in the present writer’s essay of July 21, attempts to use the recent Amiri affair to concoct a plausible explanation for why the December 2007 NIE was so adamant that there was no Iranian nuclear weapons program. This is the same Edward Jay Epstein who is otherwise notorious for his attacks on New Orleans District Attorney Jim Garrison and on filmmaker Oliver Stone, attacks carried out in defense of the discredited Warren Commission report on the 1963 Kennedy assassination.

Epstein had this to say about the connection between the Amiri affair and the December 2007 NIE: ‘One Iranian agent who supplied information to the CIA is Shahram Amiri, who defected to the U.S. last year and re-defected back to Iran this month. He reportedly provided details about the termination of Project 111 [the alleged nuclear weapons program] that presumably dovetailed with other information we got from the CIA’s compromised network. Iran now claims Mr. Amiri was a double agent all along. Whether Iran controlled his secret reports to the CIA will be hotly debated for years to come. But willful blindness on our part should not be ignored. There were high-level people in the newly reorganized U.S. intelligence community who wanted to believe Iran was ending its quest for the bomb, and messages to the CIA from agents inside the country that diplomatic pressure was accomplishing this task fell on receptive ears. Whether the erroneous conclusions in the 2007 NIE proceeded from Iranian deception or American self-deception, they undercut the case for taking more drastic action against Tehran. To the degree that other countries believed Iran had ended its nuclear program, they had little incentive to join us in imposing further sanctions.’³⁰ The neocons intend to roll back all that as soon as possible.

Krauthammer: Relentlessly Visit Ruin Upon Iran

Most American newspapers never reported Achmadinejad’s statement about the US getting ready to attack two countries within the next three months. Ironically, the only way this news crept into the Washington Post was by way of a belligerent opinion screed by neocon Charles Krauthammer. For Krauthammer, the alliance of Iran and Hezbollah assumed almost apocalyptic significance. Krauthammer comments that ‘for all his clownishness, Ahmadinejad is nonetheless calculating and dangerous. What “two countries” was he talking about? They seem logically to be Lebanon and Syria. Hezbollah in Lebanon has armed itself with 50,000 rockets and made clear that it is in a position to start a war at any time. Fighting on this scale would immediately bring in Syria, which would in turn invite Iranian intervention in defense of its major Arab clients — and of the first Persian beachhead on the Mediterranean in 1,400 years.’

True to the neocon party line, Krauthammer demands that Obama stay the course towards Middle East conflagration: ‘after 18 months of failed engagement, the administration is hardening itld be enough to rattle a regime already unsteady and shorn of domestic legitimacy. Hence Achmadinejad’s otherwise inscrutable warning about an Israeli attack on two countries. (Said Defense Minister Ehud Barak to Fox News: “Who is the second one?”) It is a pointed reminder to the world of Iran’s capacity to trigger, through Hezbollah and Syria, a regional conflagration. This is the kind of brinkmanship you get when leaders of a rogue regime are under growing pressure. The only hope to get them to reverse course is to relentlessly increase their feeling that, if they don’t, the Arab states, Israel, the Europeans and America will, one way or another, ensure that ruin is visited upon them.’³¹ William Kristol, another of the neocon dogs of war, offered Obama a column full of friendly political advice, concluding inevitably with a call for ‘military action military action against the Iranian nuclear program—and you’ll have a real shot at a successful presidency.”³²

Still No Iraq Government

Before starting the Iran war, the Obama regime would like to finally set up a puppet regime in Iraq which would be as anti-Iranian as can be managed under the current situation. The chosen agent of influence to head such a government would be Ayad Allawi. But the Iraqi politicians have been bickering about a new government since the March 7 parliamentary elections, so far with no success. Vice President Biden has made four trips to Iraq in the hope of installing Allawi, but so far he has failed. The most recent meetings between Allawi and the pro-Iranian Maliki have also brought no results. As UPI reported, ‘A meeting between Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki and his rival Iyad Allawi produced no political breakthroughs, secular leaders said. Allawi met in Baghdad with Maliki following talks in Damascus with anti-American cleric Moqtada Sadr. Hayder al-Mullah, a representative from Allawi’s Iraqiya slate, told the Voices of Iraq new agency Wednesday that Allawi expressed his determination to form a new government.’³³ If the US strikes Iran, it is inevitable that the civil war inside Iraq will resume on a scale even more serious than what was observed in 2006-2007.

Obama Wants Iran To Release Three Us Hikers

Obama has also been calling for Iran to release three alleged US hikers who supposedly went for a walk in Iraqi Kurdistan and suddenly found themselves on the Iranian side of the border, where they were arrested. The case is suspicious because of CIA covert operations among Kurds, Arabs, Azeris, Turkmen, Baluchis, and other minority nationalities of the Islamic Republic. As Politico reported, ‘President Barack Obama called on Iran Friday to free three American hikers it detained one year ago. He also said that Sarah Shourd, Shane Bauer and Josh Fattal never worked for the U.S. government and were people who have demonstrated open-mindedness and a desire for social justice. Iran recently charged the three young University of California Berkeley graduates with having improperly crossed the border, while it continues to carry out an investigation. But it did not charge them with espionage, as it had previously threatened. Obama also called on Iran to provide information in the case of former FBI agent Robert Levinson, who went missing after a 2007 meeting on Kish Island.’³⁴

⁶ There was speculation about the possible role of Bedouin tribesmen as enablers of Hamas: ‘Restive Bedouin communities populating the mountainous desert area have long been at odds with the Egyptian government. Bedouins complain of state discrimination, lack of access to government resources, and racism. Now there are growing Israeli concerns that Hamas, an offshoot of Egypt’s banned Muslim Brotherhood, has tapped into Bedouin discontent. Bedouins are believed to have at least provided space for militants to operate, if not directly assisted them, in both the latest rocket attack, and a similar one in April.’ http://www.csmonitor.com/World/Middle-East/2010/0805/Egypt-Gaza-militants-actually-did-launch-Monday-s-rocket-attacks-from-Sinai

(Ramalan) Perang Dunia Ke 3?

in Informasi Terkini

perang dunia ke 3 2 (Ramalan) Perang Dunia Ke 3?

KEBIADABAN Israel semakin menjadi-jadi. No wonder. Tetapi sampai bila? Selagi hayat Yahudi masih wujud, selagi itu keamanan, kedamaian dan keharmonian dunia akan terjejas. Pengarah Hollywood, Mel Gibson pernah mengatakan Yahudi punca kerosakan dunia. Dah lama tahu bukan? Sebenarnya ramai masyarakat antarabangsa sudah menyedari kejahatan bangsa Yahudi sepanjang sejarah kemanusiaan…..

Dulu…iaitu semasa awal abad ke-20, Henry Ford, pengasas automotif Amerika Syarikat, Ford Motor Company terkenal dengan anti-Yahudinya sehingga semua harta dan kekuasaan yang dimilikinya dihebahkan untuk membongkar keburukan dan kejahatan Yahudi.

Cuba bayangkan Amerika yang mempunyai penduduk lebih 300 juta dan nisbah bangsa Yahudinya di bawah dua peratus (tujuh juta orang) berjaya mendapat 33 peratus tempat di Mahkamah Agung. Tidak mengejutkan bukan?

Barack Obama pun tak boleh pakai, cakap berdegar sahaja, habuk pun tarak. Tetapi Amerika terus menjadi kuda tunggangan di barisan hadapan bagi pasukan Israel meneruskan misi kekejamannya

perang dunia ke 3 4 (Ramalan) Perang Dunia Ke 3?

Walaupun umat Islam masih “terumbang ambing” dijangkakan Perang Dunia ke 3 bakal berlaku tidak lama lagi. Bila-bila masa sahaja boleh berlaku. Makluman yang seperti ini sebagai satu perhatian kepada umat Islam umumnya supaya kita sentiasa dalam keadaan berjaga-jaga. Dalam sejarah lampau, Hiroshima dan Nagasaki pernah kena ledak dengan bom atom USA. Adakah rakyat Jepun pernah menjangkakan mereka akan dihukum sebegitu sekali? Tetapi sejarah telah membuktikannya. Dan…………….tidak mustahil akan berulang sekali lagi malah mungkin akan bertambah dahsyat. Mungkin………………Bom Nuklear?

Sebelum ini telah dibongkarkan pada Oktober 2009 tentang rancangan Illuminati (Zionist) lihat videonya di bawah ini :

“Bukan untuk dipercayai bulat-bulat, tetapi sebagai perhatian kepada anda semua”

Mereka merancang untuk menyerang Iran pada tahun 2012 (tujuannya untuk mewujudkan Perang Dunia ke 3 bermula di sebelah Timur Tengah. Tapi Iran tak “kosong”
Jikalau Iran diserang sebelum tahun 2012, Israel nampaknya akan serang secara bersendirian
Dan masalah bagi Israel sebelum serang Iran adalah PENYOKONG IRAN itu sendiri iaitu Rusia dan juga China (bakal pegang dunia tidak lama lagi)
Jadi…….rancangan mereka sekarang ini adalah dengan membuat provokasi terhadap Rusia dengan serangan di Georgia dengan tujuan mengalih perhatian Rusia yang telah mereka lakukan pada setahun/dua tahun lepas. Akhirnya Rusia telah menghantar tenteranya ke selatan Ossetia, Georgia
Baru-baru ini pula sebuah kapal Korea Selatan telah ditenggelamkan oleh torpedo. Siasat punya siasat Korea Selatan menuduh Korea Utara punya angkara. Dah gaduh kedua-dua negara…..
Tetapi…..setelah dikaji terbukti torpedo itu adalah buatan Jerman. Masalahnya sekarang kapal selam & torpedo Korea Utara bukan buatan Jerman
Hakikatnya, kapal selam & torpedo Israel adalah buatan Jerman. Ha…macam mana tu? Persoalannya sekarang kenapa Israel nak tenggelamkan kapal selam Korea Selatan pula?
Dah kecoh di semenanjung Korea dan yang pastinya China akan terlibat sama nanti. Ditambah pula…….China berkemungkinan besar akan menyerang Taiwan
Akhirnya China dan Rusia ada misi masing-masing jika Israel berhajat menyerang Iran

perang dunia ke 3 3 (Ramalan) Perang Dunia Ke 3?

Rancangan Israel sudah lama untuk mewujudkan perang yang dipanjangkan kepada Perang Dunia Ke 3……Dan mereka sedang menghitung hari ketika ini..

We are almost certainly in the last days of a countdown to nuclear war. Israel has made plans to attack Iran in a war of aggression, which will probably begin with some staged attack such as the attack on the Liberty in 1967. Dipetik dari http://www.whatreallyhappened.com/ussliberty.html

Persoalan yang timbul apakah bom nuklear atau peluru jenis DU (depleted uranium) akan digunakan?

Tetapi ramai yang mengatakan Perang Dunia ke 3 bom nuklear akan digunakan. Ada diceritakan juga dalam kitab Bahrul Mazi. Perang Dunia ke 3 yang diramal akan berlaku berlaku dalam tempoh sekejap sahaja tetapi………..kemusnahannya…..amat dahsyat.

Albert Einstein dalam kata-katanya…pernah menyentuh isu Perang Dunia ke 3 malahan Perang Dunia ke 4

I know not with what weapons World War III will be fought, but World War IV will be fought with sticks and stones..

perang dunia ke 3 (Ramalan) Perang Dunia Ke 3?

Adakah Albert Einstein tidak mahu mengakui Perang Dunia ke 3 ini bakal menggunakan teknologi bom nuklear yang merupakan hasil daripada ciptaannya sebelum ini? Dan selepas itu, Perang Dunia ke 4 (Battle of Armageddon) dikatakan akan meletus yang mana senjata yang digunakan adalah pedang. Ya…pedang seperti perang cara zaman dahulu kala. Ini disebabkan teknologi semua tidak boleh digunakan lagi pada masa itu dek kerana kesan EMP (electromagnetic pulse) daripada senjata nuklear itu sendiri semasa tercetusnya Perang Dunia ke 3. Perang Armageddon ini pernah disentuh sebelum ini oleh seorang penulis Muhammad Isa Dawud. Malah

……

perang dunia ke 3 5 (Ramalan) Perang Dunia Ke 3?

Malah, ada sebahagian hadis yang menekankan akhir zaman nanti akan berlakunya perang menggunakan pedang dan Dajjal akan kena sembelih dengan pedang. Hadis Nabi juga ada menyebut, Yahudi Zionis pengecut akan bersembunyi di balik-balik batu dan kayu dan hanya selamat di belakang pokok Yahudi iaitu pokok Gharqad, yang banyak di tanam sekarang di Israel. (Barat & Yahudi rajin mengkaji Al-Quran)

“Walaupun ianya teori, kemungkinannya tetap ada dan akhirnya manusia hanya mampu merancang, Tuhan sahaja yang menentukannya”
