Global SITREP F5-21: 2021 Finale

 

There had better not be even one Christian unaware
of what this little devise is and/or will become.

21 December 2021: This is the Eschatology Today finale SITREP for 2021. In this we'll look at how the dominoes are lined up and we'll recap what has been posted recently, but will now be doubled-down on.

First off, we have the double-down on what has been variously nomenclatured as Transhumanism, Human Augmentation, Human Digitization, COVID Passport - which all mean or are leading to the same thing every true Christian must know about from Revelation 13:15-17.  Most regular readers will recall this is a double-down on Global SITREP F2-21: COVID-19 as the Globalist Means to Their Objective and its comment section where much of what follows here was noted in that SITREP. However, there is more to inform about. 

This is sourced from a report found on The Conservative Treehouse by a writer known by the pen name "Sundance." This report contains a one-minute forty-two second video showing the implant biochip in use by citizens of Sweden. This, I believe, is a good witnessing tool for us to use to illustrate to the unsaved we all know the inerrant accuracy of Bible prophecy. Does the Bible explicitly say the 'Mark of the Beast" is the size of a single grain of wild rice? No, but in order to place the mark comfortably in the right hand or forehead it will of necessity have to be small, easily inserted, and pack the kind of high technology we see demonstrated in the embedded video. In many countries around the world you cannot fly without this type of "passport." There are voices in the US Congress who are saying we should not be able to fly on American aircraft within this country without such a "passport." And as noted previously, adding financial capability is already in the works.

Moving into the final week of 2022 there are, as we're all well aware, several hot-spots which are fully expected to boil over, possible this week or just around the corner in 2022. They are all equally dangerous and in one way or another have profound prophetic meaning or direct fulfillment. 

The ongoing nearly 8 year old Russia-Ukraine War could quickly become a Russia-EU or Russia-NATO war preceding the Ezekiel 38/39 war. Even if just the NATO Baltic states of Lithuania and Poland come to the active defense of Ukraine a Russian retaliation against them would trigger the heart of the founding principles of the NATO Alliance: Article V Collective Defense.

NATO Article 5 Collective Defense

Simply put, an attack on one NATO ally is an attack upon all of the NATO allies as enshrined in the alliance's original Washington Treaty. Was the recent attempt by Russian and its ally Belarus an attack upon NATO? Yes, by definition it was, and the entire alliance responded to it and the Russian-Belarus axis stood down. If there are any doubt about the Western alliances capabilities and who will eventually have full control over them, look no further - once again - to Revelation 13, verse four:

"And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast, and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast! who is able to war with him!"

There's also the rising of the kings of the East who figure prophetically in both of the primary 'end of days' prophecy bookends, Daniel and Revelation. To the logically-minded, there's a good geographic reason why the kings of the East march to the west to the Middle East - there's nowhere for those kings to march towards the East. This is made very clear in Daniel 11. In Revelation the number of those marching is giving a 200 million. Note also as we have discussed before, this is during the time of darkness, when the Lord will have shaken the heavens and the Earth has been moved out of her place (Isaiah 13:13, Joel 2:31, Matthew 24:29-30, 2 Peter 3:10  and the 6th Seal of Revelation 6).

And, last but by no means least, are the many prophetic dominoes found in the Middle East which have been covered here for all of the last 12 years. These will precede Ezekiel 38/39, yet all of these are linked in a certain progression, but the will happen with such rapidity and ferociousness that the angel Gabriel described them as a flood (Daniel 9:26).

Most importantly, the imminence of our Harpazo cannot be overstated. We shall see each other on the other side of eternity. And with that final thought... Marana'tha!

Global SITREP F4-21: "I Will Turn You Around, Put Hooks in Your Jaws, and Lead You Out..." Part II

Russian T-72B3 Main Battle Tank

UPDATE 16 December 2021: It would be a completely false notion to believe that warfare is not raging in eastern Ukraine. Warfare is raging. 

A synopsis of the past 24 hours reveals hybrid formations composed of Russian Army and Donbas region rebels launched ten attacks in the Donetsk, Luhansk and Mariupol sectors yesterday which included heavy artillery barrages and other weaponry allegedly banned under the obviously failed Minsk Accords. A Russian court in the city of Kirov accidentally published a legal proceeding in which the Russian Army presence in Donetsk and Luhansk Oblasts in Ukraine was confirmed. Within hours the report was deleted by state media censors. In today's actions four more attacks on Ukrainian Army positions were launched by forces of the Russian Federation in Novoluhanske using 82mm mortars and heavy anti-tank grenade launchers. 

These attacks are designed to cause an escalation which Russia would use as an excuse for an all-out invasion by its forces along three axes into the heart of Ukraine. In order to forestall this Ukrainian troops, under the command of the Joint Forces Office in Kiev, are limiting their actions to purely defensive measures. The Ukrainians face 120,000 Russian troops with an additional 100,000 that could be deployed in the coming days or weeks. We won't know until V. Putin has completed his risk versus reward calculations if an invasion is ordered; if a full-scale invasion occurs then we'll have our answer. That point may come no later than late January 2022 according to military observers. The other option V. Putin is considering is for a slow "creeping" or low-intensity conflict which has less risk of an onslaught of sanctions from the Western Alliance that could cripple the Russian economy. 

Ukraine is not defenseless. The Ukrainian Army is now fully equipped with the formidable Oplot-M Main Battle Tank, a modernized and upgraded version of the T-84 MBT.

Finally, is there an economic link to the prophetic Russian desire to plunder Israel (foretold in Ezekiel 38/39) that is related to the increasing potential of Western sanctions? We'd be silly not to factor in this possibility.

14 December 2021: Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov announced during a video teleconference today that Russia will respond militarily and forward deploy tactical nuclear weapons to Ukraine's border if NATO continues to arm Ukraine and does not guarantee an end to its eastern expansion. Ryabkov added "there will be a confrontation" leading to the deployment of weaponry previously banned under the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces (INF) Treaty of 1987 signed by U.S. President Ronald Reagan and Soviet General Secretary Mikhail Gorbachev.

Here below are six embedded direct links to the archived Global SITREPs on the Russia-Ukraine crisis dating back to 28 March 2014 and moving forward to the updated info of 14 April 2021. These six are the essentials, but there are others in the archives. 

There was an approximately six month hiatus in overt Russian aggressive movements until last month's wholly manufactured refugee destabilization gambit on NATO's eastern border (Poland and Lithuania). The Russian offensive armor and troop build-up (including airborne troops) along Ukraine's entire eastern border with Russia also began in April 2021.

Global SITREP A10-17: News That's Not Being Widely Reported

Global SITREP B6-15: Gog of Magog On The Move

This update now must include the forward deployment of additional of Buk-M1 (9K37M1) medium-range air defense systems (NATO Name: SA-17 Grizzly) in the past 48 hours. It was a Buk-M1 system which shot down a Malaysian airliner in 2014 having mistaken it as a NATO reconnaissance mission over Ukraine. All 298 passengers on board flight MH17 from Amsterdam to Kuala Lumpur were murdered by the Russian military operators, many of whom were citizens of NATO countries, The Netherlands in particular. 

BUK-M1 (9K37M1)
NATO Name: SA-17 Grizzly) SAM system

Proof of Russia's culpability in the shoot-down was determined when a Buk-M1 vehicle was photographed making a hasty retreat back into Russian territory from the Donetsk town of Snizhne and missing two of its previously photographed four missile loadout. Eschatology Today is convinced the forward deployment of the Buk-M1 system is in response to the USAF flight on 11 December (last Saturday) of an RC-135W 'Rivet Joint' on an ISR (Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance) mission over Ukraine all the way from RAF Mildenhall, UK.

We learned yesterday morning that President Biden's pledge on Wednesday, 8 December of no US combat troops deploying into Ukraine was pure hogwash. The first advance movement of US troops was on the ground in Ukraine and made public knowledge yesterday morning by the left-leaning Military Times newspaper at 11:00 EST. 

What we also know and need to recall is the decision made at the 2008 NATO Summit in Bucharest, Romania. That decision was to admit the former-Soviet republics of Ukraine and Georgia into the NATO alliance. One of Russia's critical demands of NATO is to disavow that decision entirely. NATO's refusal led directly to the concocted Russian invasion of Georgia. Russia defended its invasion as military action to defend the Russian-speaking population in the Georgian oblast of North Ossetia. The exact same template of military action was used in Crimea, Ukraine, and again in the Ukrainian oblasts of Kharkiv, Donetsk and Luhansk in 2014. 

 

9 December 2021: In  the past 24 hours multiple sources of OSINT (Open Source Intelligence) have published reports of a new, overt massing of Russian Federation armored forces in strategic locations all along the Ukrainian border. This build-up is confirmed by satellite imagery. What has been most striking is that this build-up is essentially a significant reinforcing of the forces that had deployed to the border region in the spring of 2021. The new units arriving are among the best equipped and trained that Russia has to put in the field. They are also now in areas near Ukraine's border that are well away from their normal training areas in Russia. 

Additionally, some of the forward deployments this time have made their movements under cover of darkness providing these new arrivals a stealthy appearance in encampments they were not to be found previously. In response Ukraine has been deploying it own forces in an expedited manner, but acknowledges they have no real chance of halt a full-scale Russian invasion without significant air, land and seaborne direct support from NATO. In one now encampment there are 700 T-72B3 MBTs (image above) along with brigades of self-propelled howitzers, infantry fighting vehicles and short-range ballistic missiles. Even in Crimea which Russia conquered seven years ago new formations have suddenly appeared, including Russian marines of the Black Sea Fleet.

For the moment we'll hold here to see what transpires next; to see if the American resolve materializes, or if our NATO allies in Europe have to deal with a potential Russian invasion by themselves.

Global SITREP F3-21: Zero Hour - Part II

Russia's Khmeimim Air Base, Syria

UPDATE 17 December 2021:  Eschatology Today's decade-old interpretation of Jeremiah 49:34-39 indicating a coalition of nations acting against the Twelver regime's nuclear weapons program, much to the delight of Israel, is once again on the front, high-heat burner with the collapse of the Vienna negotiations. 

As became clear this past week there is no hope for a return the the all but dead 2015 JCPOA agreement whose funeral will be attended by Caolition airstrikes on Irans known nuclear sites and several others previously known only in intelligence circles or fleeting references by former Israeli PM Bibi Netanyahu.

7 December 2021: Very early in the very early hours this morning the IAF conducted a precision air strike on the port facility at Latakia. In Eschatology Today's analysis this strike could have profound repercussions for one major reason and one minor reason. 

The minor reason is the proximity of today's IAF strike to Russia's Khmeimim Air Base which lies just 5 miles southeast of the Latakia port facility. This is a very sensitive area when it comes to Israeli air strikes in Syria. Not the least of which is the IAF air strike in 2018 when wildly firing Syrian air defenses shot down a Russian patrol aircraft killing all crewmen aboard. Russia blamed Israel for causing the shootdown, characterizing its air operation as reckless endangerment of its forces in Syria. As a result the S-400 Air Defense System was deployed (see map above) to Khmeimim AB in addition to S-300, S200 and other short range air defense systems. 

The important thing here his Israel has repeatedly struck targets in Latakia port, and every one of the strikes here since 2013 has been against Iranian missile and weapons shipments destined for Hezbollah in Lebanon. Such is the case with today's air strike. A containerized shipment of missiles was recently offloaded from the Iranian cargo ship MV Artabaz which had transited directly from the Iranian port at Bandar Abbas. 

It's no secret that Russia's preference is for Iranian forces to get out of Syria. Russia has looked the other way in recent months when Israel turns Iranian weapons shipments into scrap metal within hours of their arrival in Syria. The assessment is that Russia views the Israeli strikes as serving its interest in removing Iran, and because Iran has taken advantage of the location of the base in Khmeimim to clandestinely transfer war materiel into Syria. This is the minor reason of concern.

The major reason of concern is that Syria's Foreign Minister, Faisal Mekdad, has just completed a visit to Tehran where he assured the Twelver regime that Syria would defend Iranian military forces in his country. In less than 12 hours Israel promptly put the lie to that Syrian promise, at least thus far it has, with today's strike upon Iranian missile containers on the dock at port Latakia destined for transfer to Hezbollah. Should Syria be foolish enough to make good on its promise to retaliate directly against Israel with rocket or missile strikes of its own - then this situation will take on the acutely prophetic prospect of Isaiah 17 and Jeremiah 49:23-27 fulfillment.

 5 December 2021: The details surrounding Israel's success against the Twelver regime's nuclear progress in recent months was revealed last Thursday by The Jewish Chronicle dot com.

Details can be found at TheJC website. In sum, the article reveals that a team of 1,000 Mossad analysts, technicians and many subject matter experts assisted greatly by 10 Iranian dissident scientists were responsible for the July 2020, April 2021 and June 2021 attacks on Iranian nuclear weapons facilities, chief among them the A1000 centrifuge hall at Natanz (image above). 

In the months since then Iran has restored those interrupted capabilities and now, as we've discussed recently, has embarked upon the path to breakout nuclear weapons capability by further enriching the 60% HEU to 90% weapons grade HEU. This is now apparent even to the Western nuclear negotiators in Vienna who on Friday suspended further talks with the Iranian delegation which has been playing them for fools while pushing hard to manufacture their nuclear weapons.

What is also clear is that prophecy found in Jeremiah 49:36 where the  prophet quotes the Lord saying "Against Elam (Iran) I will bring the four winds from the four corners of heaven..." Eschatology Today has long interpreted this phrase to indicate coalition warfare against the Iranian nuclear threat, and still ultimately hold to that interpretation. 

However, as TheJC article makes very clear Israel has embedded in Iran a very large and capable force which has been repeatedly assaulting Iranian nuclear activities for two years with more and greater assaults coming in 2022. In this Israel has surrounded Iran nuclear prize from within Iran itself; the Israeli and Iranian dissident cohort has struck from every direction on the compass.

The coming attack, either this month or next in 2022 will be a full-scale assault at the heart of Iran's nuclear program. With the Vienna talks halted, and as we've stated recently, their is nothing further to restrain finishing the job of denuclearizing the mullahs in Tehran. We've hinted at this for some time now and perhaps you'll recall past SITREP'S that spoke of the new IDF military doctrine known as Israel Victory. Well, Israel Victory has now come to Iran in a way few imagined. 

The Iranian regime is frightened, and to not expect them to lash out with their proxies in Syria, Hezbollah, HAMAS in Gaza and Judea and Samaria and even in Yemen simply makes no sense. They will lash out in a desperate attempt to salvage the Shi'a eschatology from certain oblivion. That lashing out will without question trigger the full-assault the IDF has been preparing for these past months, with or without allied military participation.

There will be updates to this SITREP, probably sooner rather than later.

Marana'tha!
