"I expect that the Battle of Britain is about to begin. Upon this battle depends the survival of Christian civilization..." So spoke Winston Churchill on this day in 1941. However, having prayed for victory during the war, at its close both Britain and America rapidly forsook the faith which had sustained them. So now our nations are fast gurgling down history's plughole - and if we had a service to pray for deliverance it would probably be "interfaith." And God would not be listening, as we are being judged.
Apollo 11 blasted off from Cape Kennedy JULY 16, 1969, being the first mission to walk on the moon.
In Proclamation 3919, President Richard Nixon stated:
"Apollo 11 is on its way to the moon. It carries three brave astronauts; it also carries the hopes and prayers of hundreds of millions of people...
I was privileged to be invited to speak at Congressman Ron Paul's Freedom March this past Saturday on the Mall in front of the U.S. Capitol in Washington, D.C. In fact, I spoke immediately preceding Dr. Paul and helped introduce the ten-term congressman.
Be afraid - be very afraid. The UK government's problems with Northern Rock are dwarfed by those faced by the White House, which is faced with propping up Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. ALAN FRANKLIN writes: This article from The Observer, London, is spot on and warns that the world truly is heading into a deep financial mess. The Greater Depression. Read on and be informed...

After George Washington retired from being President, he became Commander-in-Chief of the Army for a second time. ALAN FRANKLIN adds: Bill's thoughtful commentaries on America's Godly heritage and constant interaction of "church and state" are a perfect riposte to those who claim that all vestiges of God should be removed from public life. They are fools and liars and history proves it so.

Millard Fillmore became the 13th President, JULY 10, 1850, when President Zachary Taylor died unexpectedly.
President Millard Fillmore stated: "A great man has fallen among us and a whole country is called to...mourning...I dare not shrink....
The big green lie machine, which insists against all evidence that there is such a thing as man-made global warming, has been so endorsed by dim politicians that our very future is threatened, our lifestyles are suffering and the lights may soon go out. Who will challenge these knaves and fools? One who will is Christopher Booker, who takes a look at carbon cloud cuckoo land inside. ALAN FRANKLIN.
The Old Testament prophet Jeremiah faced a generation that is very similar to the one we face today, I am afraid. Political and corporate leaders had given themselves over to corruption and duplicity. The fundamental underpinnings that founded and supported the nation were being dismantled. And the spiritual leaders seemed to be powerless to do anything about it.
"While Senator Barack Obama struggles to keep the public in the dark about the nature of his pro-U.N. Global Poverty Act, a recent 'Bay Area Interfaith Leaders' Luncheon' was held to lobby for Senate passage of the bill, whose cost has been estimated at $845 billion."
Once political enemies, they became close friends in later life. An awe swept America when they both died on the same day, JULY 4, 1826, exactly 50 years since they passed the Declaration of Independence.
The Declaration of Independence was approved JULY 4, 1776.
John Hancock signed first, saying "the price on my head has just doubled."

This article from The Sunday Telegraph continues the process whereby Matthew d’Ancona wakes up to the real world and finds it a real mess!
But even this article only tells half of it! He omits all the additional taxes proposed to be wasted on wind-farms, eco-towns, and other madcap schemes brought on by discredited science and EU rules. He forgets a Treasury which is itself ‘overdrawn’ with borrowing at ruinous levels - remind you of America? Too much government is the problem in both countries. Judgement is here.
Franklin concluded:
"We have been assured, Sir, in the Sacred Writings, that 'except the Lord build the House, they labor in vain that build it.'...
I also believe that without his concurring aid we shall succeed...no better than the Builders of Babel." A lesson from history - on this day!

Helen Keller was born JUNE 27, 1880.She said: (There are) "Four things to learn in life: To think clearly without hurry...To love everybody sincerely...To act in everything with the highest motives...To trust God unhesitatingly."
In the most important Supreme Court decision of the decade, District of Columbia v. Heller, a majority of justices ruled today that the Second Amendment is indeed constitutional. Not only that, but they reaffirmed that the right to keep and bear arms is an individual right, and that the District of Columbia's ban on handguns is unconstitutional.
To the Salvation Army, December 12, 1951, General Douglas MacArthur
said: "History fails to record a single precedent in which nations subject to moral decay have not passed into political and economic decline. "
Just one country out of 27 in the European Union - Ireland - voted on whether or not to become a small part of the sinister superstate of Europe. The Irish voted no. The BBC, the leftie, anti Christian, pro Europe Biased Broadcasting Organisation that is one of the curses of British life, reported on this by saying that out of 420 million voters in Europe, only three million voted against the EU constitution. That's because the rest of us were denied a vote - but the Biased didn't broadcast that!
The EU superstate project - welding all 27 countries in the European Union into a nightmare superstate - should have been derailed because the only voters allowed a say - the Irish- voted "no" and for keeping their independence. However, there is a chance for YOU to vote on this vile and sinister project, which is aimed at creating a dictatorship the Nazis would have been envious of. Say what you think while you still have the chance! Alan Franklin.
It was on JUNE 14, 1777, that the Second Continental Congress selected the Flag of the United States. In 1916, Woodrow Wilson signed the Proclamation making JUNE 14 "National Flag Day."
This cooling of the earth will - as usual - produce a further batch of batty statements that the earth is cooling because of global warming - and it’s all our fault - and taxes must go up and we mustn’t build any more power stations to keep us warm and out of the dark because they have a carbon footprint. When will our muttonheaded media and pitiful politicians get it into their heads that we need a lot of carbon to stop the next ice-age. Coal-fired power stations would be do nicely!
Right now, ending at 10 pm Greenwich Meantime (London) voters in Ireland are having their say on whether or not their country - like all 25 nations in the European Union - retains its separate identity. They are voting on the European Constitution, which creates one superstate from the independent nations of Europe and will come into force next January, rendering The Houses of Parliament in London and all other national parliaments of less importantance than state senates in America. All other EU nations, including Britain, have refused voters a say on this vital issue. ALAN FRANKLIN
George Bancroft, known as the "father of American history" for compiling the nation's first comprehensive record, wrote in Progress of Mankind: "The Divine Being should...be known, not as a distant Providence...but as God present in the flesh...
ALAN FRANKLIN writes: There already is an operational Eurocorps - the army of the EU. It consists of units of the armies of the 25 states of the EU, assigned for duties with the Eurocorps. Now there are plans to merge all the European armies into one force, with one command. A big story - if anyone has noticed! MEPs - members of the European Parliament - are to vote on EU defence proposals including setting up European forces under EU command. The policy also calls for "gender mainstreaming" of key operational appointments which could mean requiring more women in senior posts.
Using some of his most apocalyptic rhetoric yet, Iranian leader Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is vowing that the United States and Israel will soon be "annihilated," even as he refuses to abandon Iran's nuclear program. By Joel C. Rosenberg. Alan Franklin adds: If he read the Bible he would realise that he has just sealed his own fate. He won't survive- but Israel will.
The Dutch sent Henry Hudson to find a water route across America to the Pacific. Though unsuccessful, Hudson claimed the land along the "Hudson" River, and there the Dutch West India Company founded New Netherlands, receiving its charter JUNE 3, 1621.
It seems to me that far too many people in our country overlook the importance of child rearing. Many seem to feel that just about everything else--job, career, money, "success," etc.--occupies a higher priority than raising honest, God-fearing children. However, Connie and I decided years ago that raising our children would be a priority in our lives, and boy, we are glad we did!
Southern women scattered spring flowers on the graves of both the Northern and Southern soldiers who died during the Civil War.
This was the origin of Memorial Day, which in 1868 was set on MAY 30.
In 1968, it was moved to the last Monday in May.
The United Nation's Human Rights Council has launched a witch-hunt against the United States. The charge is racism against Muslims. And the United Nations' so-called Human Rights Council has put its top attack dog on the case. This is why the western nations which pay the UN's bills, only to be insulted at every debate by delegates from piddling dictatorships, should pull out of this disgusting organisation, a prototype of the coming one-world government.
In his book, The History of the United States, published in 1832, Noah Webster wrote: "All the miseries and evils which men suffer from vice, crime, ambition, injustice, oppression, slavery and war, proceed from their despising or neglecting the precepts contained in the Bible."
This double DVD set, taken from a teaching day at a church in Sussex, tells you all you need to know about everything from the fast forming EU superstate, the coming New World Order, Bible prophecy in the news, the future of Israel, false religions and much, much more.

ALAN FRANKLIN WRITES: When I speak in America I ask one unanswerable question: How is it that the country that put men on the moon cannot build a fence round its borders? The reason, of course, is that under the North American Union there will be no borders between the USA, Mexiso and Canada. There is no intention of stopping illegal immigrants. Here Chuck Baldwin warms to this theme...
ALAN FRANKLIN writes: It is already a serious criminal offence to overfill your wheelie bin in Britain, and if you want to build a house be prepared to create a new lake for any newt which happens to be in residence in a puddle on site.

Green lunacy is running rife, with the evil EU in the forefront. Here's the latest from the claptrap machine.....
"The Americans are the first people whom Heaven has favoured with an opportunity of...choosing the forms of government under which they should live."
Like America, Britain is suffering by being led by economic know-nothings, wasting the money they borrow to spend. The last time a British government borrowed money to finance tax cuts was Ted Heath's, 35 years ago: his regime ended in ruins, as did his career, as inflation headed towards 30 per cent; a pointless prices-and-incomes policy caused massive industrial unrest, and the country plunged into the third-world horror of the three-day week. Mr Brown is now heading in the same direction.
"Britain, Europe, Japan, and China will go down before America comes back up. This is turning into a synchronised bust, after all. The Global Slump of 2008-09 is under way." Alan Franklin writes: This is how the Telegraph's Ambrose Evans-Pritchard ends one of his fine articles, always worth reading. I have been saying since 2006 that The Greater Depression is on its way. Let's hope I am wrong.
One would think that sooner or later the American people would wake up to what is happening right in front of their eyes. One would think that they would realize that no matter which party wins the White House or wins control of Congress, most things stay pretty much the same.
Daniel Webster said, 'God grants liberty only to those who love it and are always ready to guard and defend it.'"
There is an old adage that, for the most part, has proven itself to be
true: "Birds of a feather flock together." In other words, one can discern much about a person by the company he or she keeps.
Accordingly, here is a sample of the quirky company of Senator John McCain.
This is part of a response to typically anti Israel reporting in those bastions of free speech, The Guardian and the BBC- the Biased Broadcasting Corporation. Hamas stealing fuel: What The Guardian fails to mention is the role of Hamas in actively promoting an artificial humanitarian crisis to put international pressure on Israel. Not only is Hamas depriving the civilian population, it is also allocating the supplies for its own use.
The truth about Israel is seldom told in the media. Here "Carlos" tells the real story....The Palestinians firing rockets from Gaza have never said they will stop if Israel withdraws from the West Bank. They have vowed to continue until they have obliterated the "Zionist entity" and have "reclaimed their land," by which they mean every acre from the river to the sea. This is what they say, even in their children’s TV programs, and I believe them.
I believe the two major parties in the USA are two peas in the same pod or, as Pat Buchanan calls them, "two wings of the same bird of prey." In my opinion, both parties are selling out our constitutional liberties, our independence, and our national sovereignty. At the national level, I can no longer in good conscience support either of them.
Mother's Day was held in Boston in 1872 at the suggestion of Julia Ward Howe, writer of "The Battle Hymn of the Republic."
Gore, quick to point to "global warming" as the cause of any passing catastrophe, might care to devote a few minutes of his precious time to reading an analysis of the crash of the British Airways B777 on 17 January 2008. It seems that excessive global cooling caused the plane's problems! Get the true story here.....
While America’s attention is focused elsewhere – on the Democrat primaries or even the polygamist cult in Texas – several Middle East countries are quietly and inexorably marching ahead in their quest to possess nuclear weapons.
It is ludicrous to say we are fighting a war on terror half way round the world when we refuse to secure our borders and ports. If I were President, I would immediately seal our borders. I would ensure that employers in America who knowingly hire illegal aliens are prosecuted. In plain language: any employer who consciously hires illegal aliens would go to jail. They would not pass Go; they would not collect $200; they would go straight to jail. Pastor Chuck launches a serious bid for the presidency. Time to wake up, people!
Is Obama committed to Israel's survival as a Jewish state? The question is serious and the answer may be chilling. The senator himself has not spoken ill of Israel nor has he made anti-Semitic statements, but it is quite unlikely that a candidate as clever as he would tip his hand on something that vital. Consider, though, all the influences on the life of Barack Obama.
In the introduction to Edward L.R. Elson's book, America's Spiritual Recovery, 1954, J. Edgar Hoover wrote: "We can see all too clearly the devastating effects of Secularism on our Christian way of life. The period when it was smart to 'debunk' and undermine our traditions ... and high standards of conduct. "
Those who question the legitimacy of the warmists' arguments are treated as pariahs. If we have a democracy and free speech it excludes those of us who question the suspect facts and figures about global warming. The simple fact cannot be denied that opposition to the warmists arguments is simply not allowed. This is an edited version of an article in the latest edition of Derek's magazine, which we recommend.
If, as casual readers of current events, you have become aware of the escalating sense of urgency, with the impending multiple world crises, then you are most likely comprehending the current history making events as they unfold. Wars and rumors of war, pestilence, mysterious shakings in the heavens, earthquakes, AND now the ravages of world-wide famine are occurring around us at this very moment. Does this announce the Biblical introduction of the "end times?" (Alan Franklin adds: This is Greg's take on current events, most of which I agree with, so get the facts here!)
So who really runs the EU? Who is behind those strange images of the Tower of Babel being rebuilt; who caused the Strasbourg parliament building to look like a rebuilt Tower of Babel, and who chose the woman riding the beast as a motif which crops up time and again in the EU? These are things I talk about when asked to give presentations. Meanwhile, take a look at this blog, which indicates that civil servants- unelected, of course- are the real power brokers. ALAN FRANKLIN.
Ambrose Evans-Pritchard is the best economics commentator around. I thought hard (it took at least 5 seconds!) before unleashing this undiluted gloom before a forecast lovely weekend. But duty called. The wheels are flying off the world's economy and people need to know what's going on. Even Starbucks said today that the economy is at its worst since they set up in business almost four decades ago.
While the now discredited Global Warming fanatics continue their outdated talk of rising temperatures governments and newspaper editors haven’t taken the truth on board yet. The EU is demanding that we sacrifice food production to grow crops for ethanol production just at the very moment that the land is desperately needed to grow food. Read on for the real truth....
One of Britain's richest men has hired Cherie Blair's law firm to advise him on a £750,000 High Court battle that could force Gordon Brown to hold a referendum on the Lisbon Treaty.
You'd need a heart of stone not to laugh....This is a tale of a bad turnout at a global warming enthusiasts' jamboree - caused by snow and extreme cold temperatures! You would think participants might actually be happy, though, that Earth Day was a disaster on account of snow and not sweltering temperatures. At least now they can claim victory. They've broken the back of global warming so decisively that Edmonton is now 25 degrees below normal for this time of year. Ho ho ho .....
A gunshot at high noon on APRIL 22, 1889, began the famous Oklahoma land rush. Within 9 hours some two million acres became the private property of settlers who staked their claims.
At last, the people of Britain who want to get us out of the vile EU have a voice at Westminster. Bob Spink, the MP for Castle Point in Essex, said he was "increasingly disappointed" with the Conservative Party, which expelled him last month. He has defected to UKIP - the only party to be trusted on Europe as all the others want to keep us IN. Speaking to The Daily Telegraph, Mr Spink said last night: "I am delighted to join the Ukip team, helping to fight for Britain's interests in Europe and for better policy on the issues that really matter to people.
Human rights activist Ayaan Harsi Ali has issued a stark warning about the growing threat of Muslim extremism in Britain. In London's Evening Standard she says:

Data from the Climatic Research Unit at Britain'sUniversity of East Anglia, from 1979 until October 2006, demonstrates that global temperatures have flattened out over the past five years. The more accurate NASA satellite data, however, is even more striking. These, recording lower air temperatures, show that there has been no warming since the global peak in 1998. Far from having risen, global temperatures have stabilised.
Much of southern England woke yesterday to The Great Pong.
Noses twitched as a wicked whiff wafted across the land.
Weathermen were quick to tell us Europe was to blame. As it often is.
But what was causing the gut-churning stink that drifted our way on the gentle morning breeze?
Perhaps it was the stench of corruption in Brussels.......
As early as the 1980s, operatives from the Muslim Brotherhood, parent group for al Qaeda and Hamas, formulated a blueprint for a "jihadist process" that would ultimately sabotage the "miserable house" of the United States. These Muslim Brotherhood operatives saw that the work of undermining the U.S. could be best accomplished by the use of front groups such as the Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR) and the Muslim Students Association.
The congressional hearings, along with eyewitness testimony and subsequent infrared video of the events at Waco led many to believe that federal agents were allowed to lie under oath with impunity. It is a fact that crucial evidence was conveniently "lost" by federal agents. Worse still was the release of videotapes of the events by investigative reporters showing the utter absurdity and duplicity of the government's account of the tragedy.
On Wednesday, Israel's Supreme Court issued a ruling that will likely have a significant impact on the Messianic Jewish community. Messianic Jews are Jews who believe that Jesus - Yeshua in Hebrew - is the Messiah of the Jewish people. The Court ruled that being a Messianic Jew cannot prevent Israeli citizenship if the Jewish descent is from the person's father's side.
The livelihood of all in the Eurozone is affected by its level against the Dollar and other currencies. The European Central Bank - basically German run - insists on high interest rates to fight inflation. This means that many industries are uncompetitive and jobs are lost. When I speak I often point out that the Euro will only be a temporary step towards the one-world currency that is coming soon - an electronic trading system that will lead to the mark of the Beast. Times are getting more interesting by the day. ALAN FRANKLIN.
This year Republicans had an opportunity to nominate a real American constitutionalist for President, a statesman in the similitude of Thomas Jefferson or James Madison. That man was Texas Congressman, Ron Paul. Unfortunately, the Republican faithful seem to be incapable of discerning the marks of true greatness, not to mention fidelity to constitutional government.
In 1988, President Reagan said: "I believe God did give mankind unlimited gifts to invent, produce and create. And for that reason it would be wrong for governments to devise a tax structure that suppresses those gifts."
As food riots sweep the developing world, the EU's foreign aid chief has warned that sky-rocketing food price rises threaten a "humanitarian tsunami" in Africa. The world is about to go hungry, caused by cold weather (we need some global warming) and idiotic policies like turning corn into fuel, using more energy than is produced!
There is no doubt over who's to blame for the mess Britain is in. Prime Minister Brown is not a victim; he is the culprit. Not only has money been blown on an eye-popping scale, the Government operates a relentless programme of deception to cover up blunders. Read this commentary and weep! A damming record of the destruction of a country.
The Civil War began on Wilmer McLean's farm in Manassas Junction, Virginia, with the First Battle of Bull Run. A Union shell exploded in his kitchen.
Over the past half-century, we have become used to planetary scares. In the late Sixties, we were told of a population explosion that would lead to global starvation. Then, a little later, we were warned the world was running out of natural resources. By the seventies, when global temperatures began to dip, many eminent scientists warned us that we faced a new Ice Age. Now a new lie is being propagated round the world...
Obama plays the innocent over the Council on Foreign Relations - America's real power behind the scenes. Yet he has spoken at their meetings! Read how a questioner-in-the-know was stonewalled and the question turned into a joke. But while he claims to be clueless about the CFR, Obama's wife is heavily involved in the globalist organization. Maybe they don't talk. Or could it be lies are being told? ALAN FRANKLIN.
"Global temperatures have not risen since 1998, prompting some to question climate change theory. " This politically incorrect quote , actually telling the truth for a change, is actually part of a story from the BBC website, of all places. Global non-warming is a big fat lie, conjured up to frighten us all into accepting restrictions on our lives and eventually ushering in a one world government "to save the earth." This is part of the rest of the BBC report.
God’s Word is clear, we are to “Pray for the peace of Jerusalem.” It’s not a suggestion, it’s a command. However, here is the question: how would we recognize this peace we are commanded to pray for? What are we to look for in this time in which we live? Does it mean complete absence of war or violence? Must we see proverbial lions actually lie down with lambs?
America's most celebrated jurist, Daniel Webster (himself a dedicated Christian man), said: "God grants liberty only to those who love it, and are always ready to guard and defend it." Obviously, Christian men down through our history have personally and collectively shown themselves more than willing to "guard and defend" our liberties.
This spring in Britain, from deep down, the earth across the country shook. For those who like omens it was almost as if England itself has begun to shake from its roots and is, at last, awaking to the danger of the EU take-over of Britain, and the appalling Lisbon Treaty currently going through Parliament.
EU leaders have approved a version of a plan by French President Nicolas Sarkozy for a grand Mediterranean Union stretching from Morocco to Turkey.The details are to be worked out by June, before a summit on 13 July in Paris under the French EU presidency, which would formally launch the Union for the Mediterranean.
The union is to involve some 39 countries - the EU's 27 members and around 12 southern states, such as Algeria, Egypt, Morocco, Israel, Syria and Turkey.
More on the scheme to expand the EU's influence."The Union for the Mediterranean ... is a formidable bridge between two river banks, the Western world and the Arab world," said French Foreign Minister Bernard Kouchner. "I hope that we will do it together, with the Germans in particular and all those others who want to take part." This is from the International Herald Tribune.
Charles Darwin was not just wrong about "evolution" - the crazy idea that staggeringly complex mechanisms came about by random chance from a pool of slime - he was also a racist.This comment from Dave Hunt's Berean Call reveals this.

I think it is time that we all stood up and gave the Republican Party a big round of applause. I mean, they have done us all a huge favor.
By an overwhelming majority, the GOP has prevented a potential plague from enveloping these United States of America, and I think it is time that we acknowledged it.
It is odd that America, which has abundant oil both offshore and in Alaska, is importing $600 billion of energy products this year. So a country stuffed with natural resources is ignoring them and instead choosing to bankrupt itself. The reason is that the areas where the oil is provably located, in the wildlife reserves of Alaska and offshore, have been rendered off-limits by a coterie of enviroloonies and lame brain politicians who listen to green lies instead of responding to commonsense. ALAN FRANKLIN.
I wrote this in response to an article from a friend who runs a TV ministry in America.The article speculated about exchange controls in Europe to fight the overvalued currency. Asked where I saw things heading, this was my reply, covering everything from the coming cash of cash, The Greater Depression and the entry of antichrist.
Here is an article from The Daily Telegraph, London, written by a great reporter - Ambrose Evans-Pritchard. He says what I have been saying for many months - the world economy is soon going over a cliff. Read the article below and get out of debt fast!

We hope and pray that during 2008 President Bush and Condoleezza Rice will experience a change of heart. That their drive down the treacherous Roadmap will come to a screeching halt and that they will change course from this path toward disaster. That they will consider Israel’s many accomplishments:
Israel, the 100th smallest country, with less than 1/1000th of the world's population, can make claim to an astounding number of society's advances in almost every direction!
A Muslim checkout worker at British store Marks & Spencer refused to handle a Bible, claiming it was "unclean". The company says it was "a misunderstanding". So that's all right, then. Imagine the reaction from the "liberal media" if a Christian had said the same about the Koran.
Comment by Derek Bennett, Editor of Eurorealistnl@aol.com
The question to ask is not about China being fit to host the Olympic Games, but will Britain be fit to host them in 2012?
In four years time when the Olympic Games come here, we in the UK will be well on our way to a police state which will be as equally oppressive as China.
A recent USA Today report confirmed what most of us already knew:
America has lost touch with its history. The story ran on February 26,
2008 and begins by saying, "Big Brother. McCarthyism. The patience of Job."Don't count on your typical teenager to nod knowingly the next time you drop a reference to any of these. A study out today finds that about half of 17-year-olds can't identify the books or historical events associated with them.
Since the 1979 Islamic Revolution, the Iranian regime has been the principal state sponsor of terrorism across the globe, with innocent civilians in London, Berlin, and Paris, and even as far as Buenos Aires, Beirut, and the Horn of Africa the victims.
This is how a Dutch parliamentarian lambasted Islam. Holland could have a 25 per cent Islamic population in the next few years if demographics continue as they are. Europe has a serious problem with this enemy within, yet Blair and Bush laughably call it "the religion of peace." Pieces more like - mainly body parts.
Nothing annoys a liberal more than when one of their celebrated intelligentsia defects toward the Right. This week, yet another Leftist icon, David Mamet, announced he is coming to his senses. ALAN FRANKLIN adds: True confession - Pat and I were both Guardian-reading lefties, until the time when our children came along and we realised that order and discipline had value. We moved sharply right -and now realise that socialism, the current curse of Britain, is deadening and destructive.
This is a good article, from WorldNetDaily. It is astonishing, even in "End Times" Christian circles, how often anti-semitism creeps into stories and comments. The writer usually states the obvious, that a mega-crash is coming and the world is heading for a crisis. Then comes the insidious conclusion: behind it all is a Jewsh conspiracy. I observe that if Jews control the media they do a poor job of getting good publicity for Israel, which is criticised in all media almost non-stop! AF.
After witnessing the philosophizing, postulating, and pontificating of the various conservative speakers (or those to whom I spoke in private conversation), I am left with the very profound and distinct impression that the so-called conservative movement is dead. It is not
dying: it is dead. Totally and thoroughly dead.
Most people in Britain are not aware that the EU is responsible for such diverse things as fortnightly bin collections, higher electricity bills, home information packs and rules on children of twelve having to sit in car booster seats. The fact is about 80 per cent of our laws come from the sinister superstate of Europe - the one we were told would never happen. Read and absorb this mass of information.
Leaders of the treacherous scheme to merge the USA with Canada and Mexico in the North American Union are asking business leaders to help with a PR campaign to counter adverse publicity. If you want to know what is going on behind your backs, get our book Goodbye America, Goodbye Britain, from our web-shop - or ask Alan Franklin to speak to your church or group. We will be in America in late summer and are available for speaking dates.
A big brother British government scheme to make all citizens carry identity cards, complete with biometric details and much other information, is being introduced soon. Britons are already the most watched people on earth, with one spy camera for every 12 citizens, but the socialist government has even more sinister plans to monitor every aspect of every citizen's life.
“Many trees have fallen...and the electric lines are down. It is as if we had suffered an aerial attack or lost a battle. This is a terrible disaster. We’re hungry and cold.” A story from The Daily Reckoning shows just what a delusion is the "global warming" theory. China could do with some of it now.....
Unlike Hamas militants, who rejoice at the death of any Israeli, irrespective of whether they are civilian or military, ordinary Israelis feel much anguish over the loss of innocent Palestinian lives, as happened during the weekend's Israeli rocket attacks on suspected Hamas strongholds....However, newspapers like Britain's Guardian and Independent always use any attempt by Israel to defend itself as an excuse to vent their spleen on the Jewish state.
Democracy responds to the mob of voters...the housing slump is working its way into family budgets...and all three of Americans' major assets could continue going down for years. So ignore the housing bulls! More insights into the decline and fall of the American economy, from The Daily Reckoning. Remember, Bush's ‘conservative’ administration added more to America’s burden than all the administrations since George Washington – put together.
The last thing we need is another liberal neocon in the White House.
If the Presidency of George W. Bush proved anything, it proved the hazard of electing phony Republican conservatives. At least one is able to clearly see a liberal for what he or she is when they have a "D" behind their name.
Former British Prime Minister Tony Blair has been holding discussions with some of his oldest allies on how he could mount a campaign later this year to become full-time president of the EU council, the prestigious new job characterised as "president of Europe". Alan Franklin comments: B. Liar has all the necessary qualities as he is slippery, deceitful and is now a Catholic. Should do well.
According to a report in Al-Ahkbar, a Lebanese newspaper said to be affiliated with Hizb'allah, the Syrian and Iranian-sponsored terrorist organization does not intend to let last week's execution of top terrorist Amad Mugniyah be left unanswered.
Secularists will not admit it, but nations rise and fall at the pleasure of Almighty God. America's founders certainly understood this fact. Even Benjamin Franklin, who was one of the least spiritual of America's Founding Fathers, told the delegates at the constitutional convention, "We have been assured, Sir, in the sacred writings, that 'Except the Lord build the house, they labour in vain that build it.'
America has forgotten this and is reaping the whirlwind. For much more on this theme, get our book, Goodbye America, Goodbye Britain, on this website.
The mainstream press, which affords Obama nearly unanimous glowing coverage, has repeatedly failed to report a reality that doesn't quite fit the Obama-as-Messiah narrative. Namely, that this self-styled agent of hope and change is a political opportunist extraordinaire. Another interesting look at the nonentity who may become president.
Pilgrim William Bradford wrote of a ship returning to England in 1625 with beaver skins to trade for supplies:
"They...were well within the England channel, almost in sight of Plymouth. But...there she was unhapply taken by a Turkish man-of-war and carried off to Morocco where the captain and crew were made slaves." Islamic pirates carried over a million Europeans off to slavery in Africa- a little known fact of history.
The default rate in America's 'prime' mortgage market has hit a record 4pc, prompting fears of house prices crashing by 25pc This confounds expectations that middle-class Americans with good credit records would be able to weather the storm. The world is heading for "The Greater Depression," as I have been predicting for years. This is a great article by the London Daily Telegraph's Ambrose Evans-Pritchard.
It is time to say it: the two major parties hold a death grip on the American people. Instead of representing the people, both the Republican and Democrat parties are bought and paid for by special interest groups and multinational corporations. Neither party pays any attention to the U.S. Constitution but both are largely marching in lockstep toward bigger and bigger government.
USA Today says “The U.S. population will soar to 438 million by 2050.” Most population growth will be driven by immigration and births to immigrants. How depressing. And it ought to make you mad, so that you want to “do something” about it... like build a wall or something. This interesting commentary - full of challenging questions - is from The Daily Reckoning, a recommended daily financial newsletter.
All round the world the Russian bear is stirring, sending bombers to fly around the coast of Britain, threatening Ukraine with missiles if it joins NATO and, in this story from The Australian, buzzing a US carrier. The Gog/Magog invasion of Israel detailed in Ezekiel 38/39 could be close!
One thing is certain: with John McCain as the GOP standard-bearer, Christian conservatives and constitutionalists cannot vote for either the Republican or Democrat candidate this year. Staying home and not voting is an admission of defeat and should be dismissed out-of-hand. There is an alternative.....
Here comes the New World Order- a continuing story. Big brother will soon know ALL your details. The FBI is gearing up to create a massive computer database of people's physical characteristics, part of an effort the bureau says will better identify criminals and terrorists.
The FBI will use eye scans, combined with other data, to help identify suspects. Here's the rub: You don't have to be a criminal or a terrorist to be checked against the database.
A 63 year old London market trader, Janet Devers, is the UK’s latest Metric Martyr. She has been prosecuted by Hackney Council for the heinous crime of selling fruit in pounds and ounces. In Big Brother Britain, our few freedoms are fast diminishing as EU rules demand uniformity across the continent - and then the world.
Barack Obama talks such nonsense about the Middle East one wonders if he could find it on the map. Here is his latest example of oddball "thinking." It involves cutting Israel into two parts. Perhaps someone should explain - using simple words - that there already is a "Palestinian" state. It's called Jordan.
The British government's refusal to permit the people to have their say on whether or not to sign over their national sovereignty to an imperialist European superstate is entirely undemocratic.
In fact, it borders on being the exact opposite of democratic government. It is rule by diktat. An interesting comment on the Brown government, from a paper in New England.
It does not matter to a tinker's dam whether it is Giuliani, McCain, Huckabee, or Romney who wins the election this November. The man behind the curtain will still produce his smoke and mirrors and create more fear and panic over any and every convenient distraction in the hopes that the Munchkins will not wake up in time to realize that the one who needs to be feared (and fought) is none other than the man behind the curtain.
Montana governor Brian Schweitzer (D) declared independence Friday from federal identification rules and called on governors of 17 other states to join him in forcing a showdown with the federal government which says it will not accept the driver's licenses of rebel states' citizens starting May 11.
Whether you are a prophecy student, a conspiracy theorist, or dabble in biblical numerology, it is interesting that in a debate on blasphemy a motion for the disestablishment of the Church of England was listed in the British House of Commons as 666 -- the Number of the Beast. Alan Franklin notes: I do not think the Church of England has much religious significance any more and will at some stage merge with the false church of Rome. And as times get darker Satanic influence will increase -for a while! But at least this incident focusses minds on prophecy.
THE NEW WORLD DISORDER
A 7-year plan aligns theU.S. with Europe's economy; rules, regs are to be integrated without congressional review. People say this is all in the conspiracy theorists' imaginations. Unfortunately, as this great comment reveals, it is all too true. The world really is fast coming together, all set for the coming world leader!
The British Government has confirmed that contrary to popular belief, traditional tungsten light bulbs are not going to be banned from 2011. Another example of poor reporting by the national press, which has created the exact opposite impression.
Real ID is postponed for 5 years
But starting this May, US states resisting the law will be penalized: Their drivers' licenses won't be valid for air travel. This is how big brother central government will gradually force everyone to carry an electronic identification tag, meaning the abandonment of privacy. It's another step towards the Mark of The Beast, a chip implanted in the body, as predicted in the Book of Revelation.
This famous quote was from British statesman Edmund Burke, who was born JANUARY 12, 1729.
The so-called "right wing" Fox News is only "fair and balanced" as long as you fit their agenda. Ron Paul doesn't - so they blank him. Appearing on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno before the New Hampshire primary, presidential hopeful Paul said he still doesn’t know why he was excluded from Fox News’ Sunday night Republican debate.
The President of America's secret "shadow government," the one with the real power, is Richard Haass, of The Council on Foreign Relations, the Rockefeller-funded and founded group of high level powerbrokers plotting to do away with the nation state. Here is some evidence - in an article Haass wrote.For 350 years, sovereignty -- the notion that states are the central actors on the world stage and that governments are essentially free to do what they want within their own territory but not within the territory of other states -- has provided the organizing principle of international relations. The time has come to rethink this notion.
In July, a Hindu opened the U.S. Senate with a Hindu prayer.This same man is opening in prayer at state senates in many places. (This was reported at the time on this site.) The first Muslim imam delivered a prayer for the U.S. House of Representatives, even though he is on record saying, "Take my word--if 6-8 million Muslims unite in America, the country will come to us." America- like Britain- is whoring after foreign, false gods, and will reap the whirlwind.
According to today's Republican Presidential candidates (with the exception of Ron Paul), patriotism demands that we click our heels to the Department of Homeland Security and that we enthusiastically support aggressive, preemptive war. This is exactly the kind of redefinition of patriotism used so brilliantly by Hitler and his fellow propagandists.
America's Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) is going after a Salvation Army thrift store BECAUSE IT REQUIRED EMPLOYEES TO SPEAK ENGLISH ON THE JOB! The store even gave everyone a year to learn English. Two refused and were fired. Now Uncle Sam is sueing them.

What should you tell your kids about 'Santa'? I told our daughter Annie the truth when she was about four years old and she seems to have survived the experience. Take heart, dear parents, and start being honest with your kids! It's not going to kill them, and God will honour it. We are making fools of ourselves and duping our children, causing them to believe a lie. It's time we all grew up. Please read on and see what happened when Annie asked me if 'Santa' was real.
While, of course, Israeli security measures have a negative impact on Palestinians, isn't it about time that The Guardian and BBC added some much-needed context to the story and stopped absolving Palestinians from all responsibility for the situation?
America's Founding Fathers insisted upon including the Second Amendment in the Bill of Rights because they recognized the fundamental human right of self-defense, whether against government tyranny or individual criminal aggression. Now a small town in Ariizona has decided you can submit to crime - or fight back. The right to self defense still applies. OPINION from the Center for Individual Freedom.
Most of us are aware that the heroic actions of a brave woman at the New Life Church in Colorado Springs, Colorado a few days ago saved the lives of perhaps scores, or even hundreds, of people. However, her bravery would not have counted for much had she not been armed. In Britain citizens are at the mercy of thugs and murderers - but Americans still have the freedom of self defence. Some facts to make you think.
I was asked by a friend with an American ministry what I thought of former British Prime Minister Blair's comments that if he had "come out" as a religious person while in office he would have been branded a "nutter." Stinking hypocrite more like, giving his odious, pro abortion, pro homosexual agenda. Here are my e-mail comments to my friend.
The time has come to realise that the whole eurosceptic movement has failed to awaken any determined opposition to the EU project. Prime Minister Brown is signing up to the treaty that creates a fully fledged constitution of the new nation state of Europe. Not enough of us have fought this and the battle seems lost. This is the dawn of the Revived Roman Empire!
People often say to me "oh we can't say that," when referring to something in religious circles with which they disagree. They are mostly wrong. We can still say a great deal, still be critical of belief systems PROVIDED we do not deliberately stir up trouble or violence against individuals on grounds of race or religion. As Christians we would do no such thing, so we will continue to say what we think. Here's part of an e-mail in which I explained this further....
Dripping wet Socialist noodle Lord Goldsmith, Britain's former attorney general now leading Prime Minister Gordon Brown's "Makes You Proud To Be British" committee, wants the National Anthem rewritten.
He says the traditional version is not "inclusive" and particularly objects to verse six (did you know there was a verse six?) containing the line: "Rebellious Scots to crush." But there is an alternative.....
Back in August 2007, the Palestinian Authority (PA), Prime Minister Olmert’s “partner in peace,” named a soccer tournament after Ziyad Da’as, a Fatah-Tanzim terrorist who had been eliminated by Israel exactly five years earlier. The Palestinian Da’as was responsible for the heroic January 2002 attack in which gunmen opened fire with an M-16 at a Bat Mitzvah in Hadera, murdering six and seriously wounding thirty.
Do western institutions want to snuggle up with Saudi Arabia and its Dark Age values? They had better think this one through as a tidal wave of money from Saudi Arabia — as well as Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, and Kuwait — is crashing into our shores and buying up assets in our democracies.They should expect no free lunches.
Israel wants peace. The Arab states want Israel. That's why the so-called "peace process" is a dialogue of the deaf. Here's the TRUTH about the real intention of the so-called "Palestinians" - in their own words. To wipe Israel off the world's maps (it already fails to feature on Islamic maps)!
When I warn about the coming North American Union, the unifying of Mexico with the USA and Canada, the date of 2010 is one I highlight - drawn from various sources. Now another journalist, working independently, has come to an identical conclusion. Here is his remarkable report. Meanwhile, you need to get our book Goodbye America, Goodbye Britain to find out what is going on. They make great presents for the unsaved!
Here's some comments on the world situation from my old friend Warren, in New England, and me in "old" England. Our e-interchange covers the state of society, the need for prayer, and the leadership of our nations. Alan Franklin.
Was this the week that the wheels finally came off what was once considered a Rolls-Royce among institutions, the British Civil Service?
Once capable of running half the world with a tenth of its current manpower, it is now depicted as a rusting wreck, propped up on bricks, awaiting the scrapyard. Another chapter is the fast decline of what was once Great Britain. So that's what happens when you relegate Christianity to "just another belief system."
Dying NOVEMBER 24, 1572, John Knox stated: "A man with God is always in the majority." American Minute with Bill Federer.
It is hard to imagine that President Bush, whose intentions appear to be to dismantle Israel, could be the same person who, early in his presidency, viewed Israel from the air. When he saw the 9-mile strip that a proposed Palestinian state would leave Israel with, he humorously exclaimed, There are driveways in Texas longer than that!
Palestinians have made a specialty of murdering civilians, yet still wish to portray Israel as a sponsor of terrorism. They have found an effective method: deliberately putting their own civilians, even their children, in mortal danger.
Ethanol, the gasoline substitute made from things like corn, is a financial and practical disaster. It is losing money for the mugs who invested in it (including Bill Gates.) It has driven up food prices round the world, as corn and other foodstuffs were bought to turn into ethanol. George Bush mandated its use and backed it, so you knew it had to be a silly idea. And boy, was it ever. This is part of a report from today's Bloomberg News, where you can read the rest of the story.
I send out a great many e-mails, often answering specific queries. Some of this material is of general interest so, suitably edited, I am putting some extracts from recent e-mails on this page, for a wider audience. Today's comments range from the global green scam to witnessing to Jewish people. Here we go....
Just as the slaughter in Iraq is the defining image of Tony Blair's time at the top, so the crumbling of Northern Rock is fast becoming a perfect allegory for the disintegration of Gordon Brown's political authority. It is a tale of management arrogance, administrative incompetence, a cavalier disregard for other people's money and counter-productive spin.
Exercising its perpetual itch to legislate, the EU commission brought its latest venture into the darker realms of bureaucracy before the toy parliament in Strasbourg recently - none other than the draft Soils Directive. (Or should that read "daft" -Ed ?)
Today Senate Democrats, the RINOs, and -- yes -- the President of the United States - are ready to hand over America's national sovereignty to the third-world-controlled United Nations -- as if U.S. sovereignty were nothing more than an old coat you'd give to the Salvation Army.
An estimated 400,000 long-term migrants left the UK in 2006. This was the highest recorded level of emigration since TIM began and was 41,000 higher than the 2005 estimate. Just over half of these emigrants (207,000) were British citizens.
In 1994, Congress passed the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT) making the United States a member of the World Trade Organization (WTO). It was then that I realized a great evil had our government within its grip and began my campaign to wake Americans up to the dangers and threat we faced. At the time nobody, save a precious few, wanted to hear anything I had to say.
Here’s chapter and verse of just HOW the EU has succeeded in stitching us all up with the constitution “that dare not speak its name” and is fast creating the superstate. Valéry Giscard d’Estaing wrote the original so he should lnow better than most. I am sorry to see the Czechs falling into line - the French socialists are a broken reed.
If the United States government had listened to Ron Paul, we would not have lost nearly 4,000 American soldiers and Marines, spent over $1 trillion, and gotten bogged down in an endless civil war from which there is no equitable extraction. Furthermore, had we listened to Dr.
Paul, Osama bin Laden would no doubt be dead, as would most of his al-Qaeda operatives, and we would be less vulnerable to future terrorist attacks, instead of being more vulnerable, which is the case today.
Immigrants can choose from a confusing range of 73 Government schemes allowing them to live and work in Britain. The full array of legal routes for non-European migrants can be revealed for the first time today in a list disclosed by the Home Office.
Daniel Webster is regarded as perhaps America's most notable jurist.
Webster said, "Hold on, my friends, to the Constitution and to the Republic for which it stands. Miracles do not cluster, and what has happened once in 6000 years may not happen again. Hold on to the Constitution, for if the American Constitution should fail, there will be anarchy throughout the world."
No matter who wins the US presidency, the Rockefeller interests, the Trilateral Commission, which David Rockefeller founded, the Council on Foreign Relations and the Royal Institute on Foreign Affairs will have had a hand in the selection of the candidates All these world government advocates are well represented. Members of the CFR are listed by going to Google and typing in “Council Foreign Relations 2006 Membership.”
One prosecutor, one legal system, one police force, one army - one Euro dictatorship! You see the way the tide is flowing in the EU superstate. I have been saying all this for years and now it is fast taking shape before your eyes- for those with eyes to see. ALAN FRANKLIN.
The Biased Broadcasting Organisation - which pumps leftie, anti Christian, anti Israel propaganda round the world - has once again been PROVED to be a hotbed of lefties. Staff at the BBC - paid for by British taxpayers - are eleven times more likely to be "liberal"than "conservative." Who says so? THEY do! Another telling blow against this awful organisation.
When I (Alan Franklin) speak at Bosham Village Hall, Sussex, at an all day teaching session on November 10, this will be one of my main themes. The coming Russian invasion of the Middle East. If you want to know what happens next- read the Bible! Also read this excellent article on one of the next major end times events.
What does it mean to teach religion, or to teach “about religion” in public schools? Since the education establishment is totally committed to transformational education (changing the beliefs, attitudes and values of the child), teaching religion, or teaching about religion, in public schools really means shaping the child’s beliefs, attitudes and values about religion. Another reason for home schooling!
By 2031, the population of Great Britain will be over 70 million says the government's statistics office. The increase will be 90 per cent due to immigration. These numbers are alarming. British schools and hospitals are already struggling and there are too few affordable homes for native-born Brits to buy or rent.
The controversy over whether the EU treaty is really a constitution by another name misses the point. This is not an argument about Europe's constitution; it is about ours.
Removing Britain from our entrapment in the process of ever closer (European) union is of huge benefit to us as a nation. But it is also of great benefit to those who aspire to build a federal Europe. By removing our awkward squaddishness from their processes, we would allow them to proceed at their own speed towards that goal. We should wish them luck, if that is their chosen destiny as nations. Some interesting ideas on a future for Britain OUTSIDE of the superstate....
Tremble for America, for God will surely judge it severely after this fiasco! Palestinian officials who met with visiting US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice on Sunday said they received assurances that the Bush Administration will pressure Israel to make sure Jerusalem is divided as part of an Israeli-Palestinian final status peace agreement. But the land is God given to the Jewish people forever - and woe betide America or any other country that tries to forestall God's divine purpose!
The top British Government weapons expert, Dr David Kelly, was assassinated, an MP claims. Campaigning politician Norman Baker believes Dr Kelly, who exposed the Government's "sexed-up" Iraq dossier, was killed to stop him making further revelations about the lies that took Britain to war. The very odd death of Dr Kelly, from an alleged wound which could not have killed him, shut up a man who told the truth about the "weapons of mass delusion" on the basis of which the USA and Britain went to war.
Two years ago the Bruges Group predicted the path of the EU treaty and warned of the consequences of railroading integration on Britain. Now the Bruges Group looks at what will happen next. And how Britain can finally resolve the EU question and become a good neighbour to the continent, rather than being an overcharged lodger.
I am personally convinced that, by and large, the churches of America (regardless of denomination) are in a state of apostasy. And as such, offer little or no resistance to the men of sin who seek to seduce and deceive our people. So says Pastor Chuck, a man of like spirit to our own (Alan and Pat.) The churches of Brit |
