Global SITREP B8-22: NATO Pushes East, Russia Pushes West, Arabs Push Israel, and Taiwan Braces: A Perfect Storm Brewing


(UPDATE BELOW) 12 April 2022: SITREP B8-22 will begin with data points that will flesh out with time. 

As a direct result of Russia's continuing barbaric aggression against Ukraine, its western neighbors, and particularly the recent bellicose verbal tirades against the United States in particular as leader of the North Atlantic cum Global Alliance, NATO is leaning significant numbers of its military forces forward all along the entirety of Russia's western flank. Image above.

In the north these forces are directly abutting the Union State's borders. In the center just west of Ukraine, the object of Russia's current war of aggression, and in the south against the Black Sea region, adjacent to Moldova, Transnistria and occupied southern Ukraine. In the heart of NATO-Europe are hundreds of thousands of the alliance's combat troops, backed by strategic, nuclear-armed aviation and naval forces. 

In the past 36 hours NATO's intelligence arm (i.e. the intelligence apparatuses of all alliance partners) alerted Russia's possible use of an as yet undetermined type of chemical weapon in the siege of Mariupol, Ukraine. Mariupol, to be clear, is the scene of wanton genocide that makes the genocide that occurred in Bucha and other northern Ukraine towns pale by comparison. As many as 20,000 corpses reportedly litter the streets, are under rubble and in bombed out buildings of the once beautiful and vibrant city. The US and UK are leading the investigation. 

Ukrainian reports say the Russians employed drones on Monday that dropped ordnance filled with a chemical substance that is not unlike those used in the war in Syria in recent years. Ukrainian forces report civilians and a few of their troops in the city are exhibiting signs of chemical poisoning and respiratory issues. According to the UK MoD, "all options are on the table" if the use of chemical weapons is verified, with sending NATO troops into combat being one of the options.

West to East Prevailing Winds Ukraine-Russia

Update 18 April 2022: There has been consistent talk, primarily from Western Globalists and their MSM warning about the potential for Russian use of nuclear weapons against Ukrainian forces who are largely in positions in the east against invading Russian forces moving westwards. 

Cutting through all of the propagandistic rubbish, this is Western Globalist nonsense. The reason why is that Vladimir Putin and his military are not idiots. Any use of nuclear weaponry against Ukraine would result in nuclear fallout blowing right back into the Russian military forces building-up in the east as well as into the Russian heartland as the above blow-up of a prevailing winds map clearly indicates.

  2. Buckle up!

    NATO Intel is now strongly implicating newly named Russian invasion commander Dvornikov as authorizing the use of phosphorus against Ukraine civilian targets as well as chemical weapons yesterday in Mariupol. Dvornikov is "the worst of the worst" war criminals alive today. His actions in the first hours of his promotion to invasion commander fit his modus operandi in Aleppo, Syria explicitly.

    Israeli DM Benny Gantz said yesterday that Iran is "dangerously close" to achieving 90% weapons grade fissile uranium. "[Israel] must activate Plan B immediately!"

    Plan B is a full-scale Israeli preemptive strike on Iran.

  3. Israel struck targets in northwestern Syria this past weekend in Masyaf and Aleppo region.

    The targets were missile production facilities manned purely by IRGC and Hezbollah troops. There is zero Syrian presence at these sites.

  5. It is a great comfort to know that our God is in control. The moves we are seeing, especially from NATO/America seem very risky considering Putin's jeopardy just now. He must be resisted, no doubt, but to be making statements about "all options on the table" is taking things a bit far in this poker game. It is my belief that America WILL someday suffer a nuclear strike. I just don't understand why THIS current situation should be the catalyst for it.

    1. I understand the catalyst and the why clearly, and both are linked together, and both come directly from Putin and his inner circle and their twisted view of events over the last half century.

      They blame the U.S. Reagan Administration for the fall of the USSR.

      They blame successive U.S. Administrations until 2016 for economically boxing Russia in in an attempt to absorb Russia into their globalist world order, at the cost of Russia's rightful place as a great power.

      So, America must pay.

  8. Ok, now I get it. I did some data mining and discovered that the vast majority of Bible prophecy "experts" have opined that Russia's invasion of Ukraine has NOTHING to do with Ezekiel 38/39 as a precursor or otherwise related event. They, inconveniently so, completely ignore Ez.38:4a.

    Short-sighted in the extreme IMHO, but then again none of them are truly expert in military matters either, and Ezekiel 38/39 is explicitly a military matter.

  10. Late yesterday Ukrainian forces severely damaged the Russian Missile Cruiser Moskva off the coast of Odessa.

    Ukraine fired two of its brand new Neptune anti-ship cruise missiles and scored direct hits with both of them, and resulting in secondary detonations of the Moskva's own ordnance. The surviving crew was evacuated, the ship totally disabled, dead in the water.

    These missiles are a Ukrainian 7-year long reverse-engineering project version of the Russian Kh-35 anti-ship cruise missile known also by the NATO Name AS-20 Kayak.

  12. The war in Ukraine will be a long and intense war, it is an existential war for Ukraine. It has already redefined the NATO force structure with many of the allies doubling the size and lethality of their armies. Poland and Germany are prime examples of this.

    Much is yet to occur prophetically, so in the interim Eschatology Today will monitor events while taking a quiet stand-down for an undetermined duration.

  16. A large gathering of Arabs in Haifa, Israel late yesterday called for intifada (uprising) against the "terrorist State of Israel" and its "terrorist police."

    These Arabs called for violence against Jews in the State of Israel and the lame government of Naftali Bennett did nothing of consequence.

    That's a guarantee for greater violence to come.

  17. The Government of Jordan has taken an active role in incitement of Arab violence on Temple Mount.

  18. Sean, War IS complicated. So forgive me for my simplicity, but I wrote this in another forum regarding the situation in Ukraine and would like your take on what I wrote:

    It always comes down to logistics. In the distant past, someone wise said "An army marches on it's stomach." (The word "stomach" is both actual and metaphorical).

    Basically, you can have the Spear of Destiny itself in your hands but if you don't have a supply line behind you, you will quickly become worst than useless. You will become an easy target. In warfare, logistics is EVERYTHING. I never cared much for Putin, but I never thought he was stupid. Apparently, I was wrong.

    (The failure of Putin's invasion of Ukraine is directly related to logistics. He figured it would take no time at all to achieve his goal, so he figured a proper supply line wasn't needed).

    ReplyDelete

    1. Jonathan,

      Yes, in simple terms you're 100% correct.

      No country wins a major campaign of war without the vital necessity of robust combat support and sustainment. As Gen. Perishing famously said, "logistics wins wars."

      Proper combat support includes, at a minimum, transport, supplies of every kind, communications, maintenance and medevac.

      Russia's build up of forces lasted for months prior to 24 February. They expected and only planned and provisioned for 6 weeks of combat to becoming mission complete.

      What they did not account for is Ukraine's capability to quickly destroy Russia's primary method of combat sustainment - the Soviet-era rail system near their border. Then Ukraine made invasion routes impassable with wrecked hulks of Russian armor. Going off- road drowned Russian armor in mud.

      In the coming Donbas offensive Russian objectives are known in advance, their routes of advance mapped out. And western lethal supplies will again exact a great sacrifice of more Russian conscripts (many of whom have dismal morale already).

      I'll be adding new info to this SITREP later today.

    2. Hey Sean,

      Thanks for the response and affirmation. I am limited in that I can only try to look in from the outside, not being an insider.

      Although I have been following the situation closely, I was never even aware about the rail system and it's importance, which brings me to the following point:

      It is a crying shame this isn't being covered my main stream media. There are so many decoys and very little substance. While civilians are being slaughtered in Ukraine, we are "wrestling" with Transgenderism... which is a BS concept if there ever was one.

      It is a shame that people have to search out a sight like yours to get a decent (more than decent) scoop on what is going on.

      In other word, thank you.

      I'll sign off on this, another quote:

      “Amateurs talk about tactics, but professionals study logistics.”
      – Gen. Robert H. Barrow, USMC (Commandant of the Marine Corps) noted in 1980.

      Obviously, tactics are extremely important, but as we have covered, it is pointless without logistics.

      Sean, have a great week and God Bless.

    3. The MSM are rightfully called 'enemy media' as what they publish is pure propaganda.

      None of it is real news, all of it comes from a place of malintent - the beast empire prior to the revealing of the beast.

    1. Status Update:

      The Russian war in Ukraine has, as noted above, entered its third and possibly final phase. Its duration is an unknown parameter but most likely measured in weeks to months for a variety of reasons.

      Ukraine has finally received the "No Fly Zone" assets it has pleaded for from NATO's eastern front (former Warsaw Pact) nations.

      The aircraft and the spare parts are without any doubt MiG-29 Fulcrum models - any other type of aircraft would have little effect. The MiG-29s will have a major impact on this 3rd phase of the war.

      In Israel, it is obvious to all that the Temple Mount is the catalyst and focus of the expected Arab uprising. No surprise that Jordan's King Abdullah and his princes are key enemies - which is something the prophet Asaph was explicit about in his Psalm 83 prophecy. Jordan's role is also explicitly clear per the prophecy of Isaiah 11 - but y'all are already keenly aware of these things.

      Finally, the signs in the heavens have been present of late. No surprise here either; we're under the Lord's direction to watch for such signs, and they are occurring.

  24. At 04:00 Israel Time this morning the HAMAS islamic extremists began to riot and engage in violence against security forces there to keep the peace. The Islamists cried for jihad [war] against Israel. Both Jordan and the Arab League stood up and voiced direct support of the islamic jihadists objectives on Temple Mount.

    Israel's government has vowed to maintain the status quo on Temple Mount which forbids Jewish prayer anywhere on the main mount platform.

    Clearly, it will be an overt Act of God which will restore Israel's ability to worship, conduct services and establish the Lord's Sancturary on the Temple Mount.

  25. The truth is finally out.

    A Russian general admitted today that the military objective is the territorial conquest of eastern and southern Ukraine to make a land bridge westward all the way to Transnistria, which borders with Moldova.

      Ok, so sometime in the future we should expect something to happen to cause Jordan to turn against Israel prior to psalm 83 and Turkey to join Russia prior to Ezekiel 38&39. I have been watching Jordan waiting for that to occur (which seems to be in the process of occurring today)
      That tells me that the pieces are not quite in place yet but are getting there.
      Is my assessment correct, or should I be looking at something differently?

    4. Jon,

      A long time ago I added Isaiah 11:14 as being a parallel prophecy to the Psalm 83 scenario:

      ""But they [Judah and Israel] shall fly down upon the shoulder of the Philistines toward the west [Gaza];
      Together they shall plunder the people of the East;
      They shall lay their hand on Edom and Moab;
      And the people of Ammon shall obey them [Jordan]
      .

      Added to this as another parallel to Psalm 83 is Ezekiel 28:24-26 to complete the pre-Ezekiel 38/39 picture.

  27. We're gonna switch gears here with a new SITREP later today. It will, (unabashed baseball reference here), touch 3 bases before heading to home plate.

    1.) The food supply of planet earth food is spontaneously combusting. These fires are of two types: arson and warfare. Both are "man-made" and well within the Lord's prophetic word and meriting coverage on this blog.

    2.) The "spirit of the antichrist," albeit currently under control of the Restrainer, is manifestly evident globally, also just as the Lord's prophetic word has foretold. Again on this blog it will be exposed in its manifestations.

    3.) As noted previously, the current coalition government in Israel is about to collapse. One guess as to what the first act of a restored Likud government will be. A virtual no- brainer.

    Until later today ...
