Global SITREP B6-23: A Disaster in the Making

 

UPDATED 25 May 2023: As posted here recently, the legion of Indications and Warnings (I&W) for a major event occurring in Iran continue apace. 

The civilian insurrection against the Twelver regime has ramped up despite, and in fact due to the numerous death sentences carried out against captured protestors. Voices within Israel say direct support to the civilian protestors is the best course of action. Were it not for the apocalyptic Twelver's nearly realized nuclear weapons ambition, this would be an excellent course of action, and in truth, is likely in-progress. However, it's not enough to cork the nuclear genie in a bottle. 

The prophecy of Jeremiah 49:34-39 indicates both a civil uprising and external swords being brought against the Twelver regime. This is a relatively long-term process of the Lord's declared judgment being meted out; to be sure it is a near-term yet drawn-out catastrophe for Iran. As as Jeremiah's prophetic Scripture makes clear, the ancient province of Elam is ground zero for the unfolding judgment. For their part, the Twelver's recently reiterated that any military attack upon their nuclear facilities and defense installations will result in all-out war. The regime is woefully ignorant of the Lord's hand holding against the "foremost of their might." A rude awakening and ultimate cause dismay among the regime's clerics.



UPDATE 27 May 2023: Eschatology Today noted quite some time ago that the prophecies regarding present day Iran found in Jeremiah 49:34-39 (as Elam) and Ezekiel 38:5 (as Paras/Persia) are distinct prophecies. It is time to make the prophetic distinction clearer than it has been until now.

In Jeremiah the prophecy is very specific in naming that part of modern Iran which was ancient Elam. Ancient Elam occupied a large portion of southwestern Iran. It is where Iran's nuclear crown jewel is located at Bushehr, and several other of Iran's clandestine nuclear sites are also located. When Israel's leadership decides to strike and neutralize the Iranian nuclear threat, as was done in Iraq (1981 at Osirak south of Baghdad) and Syria (Al Kibar, Deir Ez-Zor province) previously, the region of ancient Elam will be the focus. This region in total encompasses the provinces of Bushehr, Fars, Isfahan, Khuzestan, Lorestan and Ilam. 

As Jeremiah's prophecy makes clear, this is where Iran's judgment through military action (the sword) begins. This is where the foremost of their military might is located. Much of the rest of Iran's external military power as controlled by the IRGC Qods Force (QF) is itemized in the below graphic.


The strikes upon Iran will undoubtedly bring proxy responses against Israel from Syria (Isaiah 17 and Jeremiah 49:23-27), Lebanon, Gaza and the fifth column proxies in Judea and Samaria (Psalm 83, Isaiah 11:12-14 and Ezekiel 28:24-26). Jordan will also join in with this group of enemies. They all lose this war badly, some cease to exist as nations, others become vassal states. The overall sum of these prophetic fulfillments results in the prophetic narrative concerning Israel found in Ezekiel 38/39. 

That sum boils down to Israel, immediately prior to the 70th Week of Years, dwelling safe and secure, without walls, bars or gates and not even considering the losses endured by Russia in its long-term military investments in Syria. Ezekiel 38/39 is a very brief war of retribution and as an attempt to conquer and plunder Israel. Ezekiel 38:5 is where we find Iran (as Paras) a militarily reduced Iran at that, with Libya (Puwt) and Sudan (Kûwsh), and which may include Horn of Africa nations as well. Iran at this time is not a major power and is lumped in with other minor powers like Puwt and Kûwsh in support of the the primary force, a coalition of what remains of the Russian military and its Caucasian and Central Asian allies.

In Jeremiah 49, there does not appear to be a nuclear war element, although the radiation released from strikes on Iran's nuclear facilities will cause a mass exodus to locations around the globe. In Ezekiel 38/39 there's no question about it - nuclear exchanges are certainly a part of that brief war against the participants in it. 

Marana'tha!

  1. Iran tested a long range ballistic missile today that is reported capable of striking Israel with a nuclear weapon. Right on cue, Hezbollah's Hassan Nasrallah threatened Israel with complete destruction in the coming war.

    The impetus for Israel to preemptively strike Iran's underground nuclear sites as well as its missile and drone bases has ratcheted up accordingly.

  2. The U.S. and France both condemned Iran's LRBM test today. The Kheibar LRBM is a new system specifically designed to send a nuclear warhead 2000 miles down range.

    1. This is the strongest indication of the reality of Russia receiving the hooks in its jaws prophesied in Ezekiel 38/39.

      How could the final Empire of Antichrist rise in these last days if it were obliterated by Russian tactical nukes? Keep watching!!!

  4. I’ve been watching Israel, the ME, & Russia since 9/11 almost continuously. Israel has waffled so much in following GOD (even from an Old Testament/ Torah perspective), falling short of fulfilling the beacon of light Israel could have been, and cried wolf about Iran over and over for 20 years as they waited for them to master breakthroughs.

    Always knew they would be deceived but thought they had principles based on sound doctrine.

    They went head over heals in love with Pfizer, va666 mandates, va666 passports, health tracking. There’s a case to be made that they are the most lost. It shouldn’t be a surprise since they embrace the Antichrist and rejected Jesus…. Guess I had a false belief they were principled in laws, reasoning, and self preservation while simultaneously being blind.

    Peace & Shalom, AWM

    1. All Israel has been subject to Deuteronomy 29:4, for the most part, ever since the Covenant was given by Moses at Horeb. There have also been Godly men who He has used to lead them throughout history, otherwise they'd not have survived to be reborn as a nation 75 years ago. The will of God is absolutely being done with respect to "all Israel shall be saved" as both Isaiah and Paul wrote. The prophetic, living Word of the LORD God will be fulfilled explicitly as it was written, and it will occur in the next few years, especially following the Harpazo of the Bride of Christ. Marana'tha!

  6. Lt. Gen. Herzl Halevi's warning of 23 May:

    “Iran has made more progress in uranium enrichment than ever before. We are also closely examining other aspects of the path to nuclear capability. Without going into details, there are possible negative developments on the horizon that could prompt action."

    The "details" are Iran's advanced work on a nuclear weapon ignition device, also known as a nuclear trigger.

  7. Since Iran views the U.S. as the great Satan and Israel the little Satan it seems both countries are vested to prevent this from happening.

    1. The Twelvers, especially since Amadinejad's era, have made clear their intent that America's fall will preceed Israel's fall.

      The Russians, the Twelvers northern allies, have also bought into an in-progress American societal collapse, and they're not completely wrong - we also see signs of collapse in media on a daily basis.

      However, I maintain our society is not collapsing, it is (pardon the pun) transitioning. Our society is transitioning from one with neo-religious yet secular morality to a society rife with qualities made for the Antichrist.

      The Harpazo of the Bride of Christ will accelerate if not complete the transition. The Restrainer will be taken out of the way. The passage of time as we have known it is about to end. Eternity straight ahead.

  8. The update for this SITREP will expand the interpretive understanding of Jeremiah 49:34-39 and Ezekiel 38/39 with respect to Iran. We can think of these two imminent prophecies as a type of Act I and Act II. Posting later today.

  9. Up til now, Israel has fought Iran through Iran's proxies like Syria, Lebanon etc. This article shows a change of thinking like you mentioned in your Sitreps, that Israel plans to put an end to the endless murdering of it's people.

    1. Well, I don't think on those terms because "no man knows the day or the hour."

      What I believe is that it is a possibility we could be witnesses to Jeremiah 49, Isaiah 17 and Psalm 83, but that all it is, a possibility. I believe this because of Ezekiel 39:29 indicates the Bride of Christ has been snatched up in the harpazo near the time when Gog of Magog gets hooked by God.

      Delete
    2. I agree, Sean. I think Tim LaHaye may have had it right when he wrote his Left Behind series to stage the Harpazo concurrently with the destruction of the Gog coalition. It would make sense that these two events could be the intro to the unbelieving world of the existence of a supernatural God! A blessing (Blessed Hope) and a cursing (Gog's destruction).

    3. BTW, good revelation for me from the implication in Ezekiel 39:29!

    4. The timing makes logical sense due to a nuclear exchange as well as Ezekiel 39:29.

    5. By the way... there's a near 100% probability of hostile action (war in space) occurring in orbit above the earth (the ultimate high ground). Orbital platforms are certain to be targeted creating "clouds" of hazardous space junk and even uncontrolled re-entry of space platforms hitting oceans and landmasses. The USSF is ready to fight this kind of space war today.

  14. The IAF has struck what are believed to be IRGC-QF and Hezbollah targets near Damascus about two hours ago (just around midnight Israel time).

    The IAF strike aircraft were over the Golan Heights when missiles were launched at their targets. Significant damage has reportedly occurred, but an official battle damage assessment has not been made public.

  17. Sean, I am a bit confused with the US involvement here. I am not sure what you think of Amir Tsafarti, but being a native Israeli, he posted a comment today that confused me. Here is his post:

    America Nearing Disaster Deal with Iran
    It appears that the U.S. is determined to reach a new deal with Iran despite the knowledge that they have much more high-level uranium than previously reported. The IAEA has found uranium particles at Iran’s Fordow facility enriched to 83.7%, just shy of the 90% needed for weapons, and a significant amount that is 60% enriched. There is no reason for them to have this outside of a weapons program. So, while President Biden says his administration is adamantly opposed to Iran developing a nuclear weapon, he is accepting an Iran that is on the verge of doing so. The only winners in this deal are the Iranians. Their sanctions will be lifted, they’ll have America’s endorsement that their nuclear program is safe for the world, and Israel will be all alone on any attack planned on Tehran’s weaponization program. Prime Minister Netanyahu and the Israeli government will be forced to make a momentous decision. Go along with the deal, which will open up a U.S. endorsement of the normalization of relations with the Saudis, along with other “rewards”. Or, take off their gloves, attack the nuclear facilities, and, likely, enter a multi-arena war....

    Questions: is the USA going to join in this Jer 49 strike (as I have believed for some time) when the administration is openly working with Iran, or is God prompting the US to push Israel to fulfill prophecy in order to protect its existence? The US actions are disgraceful, as only this administration can execute (along with the shadow government pulling the strings). Seems like our nation is bent on the destruction of Israel. Sorry for the length of this. Just trying to make sense of this current deal with Iran and how this plays out with the Jeremiah 49 prophecy.

    1. LD,

      It doesn't matter what Amir Tsarfati says, or what I have said.

      The only thing that matters is what God has said through His prophets, Jeremiah and Ezekiel.

      Those words will be fulfilled exactly, explicitly as written. Iran's regime will be under the sword; the four winds indicate it comes from all directions.

      Also, there are no prophetic words in Jeremiah 49:34-39 about any country coming under the sword except for the region of ancient Elam.

      However, this prophecy does not exist in a vacuum. It appears to be directly related to the prophecy of Isaiah 17 and also Jeremiah 49:23-27. Israel survives and emerges victorious over these enemies.

      As for Biden, he is a prolific liar and exceedingly corrupt, his agenda will not prosper. And we know from Scripture whoever comes against Israel is harshly judged by God, be it an individual or a national regime. All of the Lord's prophets make this very clear.

      And... in addition, Gabriel informs us through the prophet Daniel that the Archangel Michael and his angels fight for and defend Israel in these last days. There's no confusion in any of this about anything, no man or nations of men withstand an angelic army, it's no contest.

    2. LD,

      Also the UN IAEA yesterday announced they have officially closed the books on the Fordow 87.3% enriched uranium investigation and the Abadan man-made uranium investigation. The IAEA accepted the Twelver's impossible explanations (blatant lies) at face value.

      This increases the probability of Israel unilaterally launching strikes against these Iranian nuclear sites.

      Delete
    3. Sean, thank you my brother for your answers. Very helpful for sure. Yes, God will execute His divine will to a "T", and those who have come against Israel will be cursed, just as His word says. Praying for Israel. Maranatha! LD

  18. One thing I don't get, and I would love it if you would explain it to me, Sean, is that Pakistan has the bomb as well as North Korea. Pakistan is an Islamic nation who would have no problem passing a nuke or two at the right price (as well as nuclear technology and everything else to boot) and North Korea is a starving nation who has little to loose.

    Is it possible that Iran has had the bomb for quite awhile now, even if not internally developed?

    1. Jonathan,

      North Korea and Iran have been swapping nuke and missile technologies for a very long time, so my suspicion - which cannot be proven - is that Iran has what it needs for a working weapon.

      The consensus is that the clerical leadership has not decided to assemble the device, but will do so when they perfect the delivery system. That could take as little as 12 days when the order is given to assemble. This is what Israel is very closely tracking.

      Pakistan's A.Q. Khan passed a lot of nuke tech to Iran some time ago.

  19. Hi Jonathan,

    North Korea and Iran is just a tiny tip of an iceberg.

    And now ye know what withholdeth that he might be revealed in his time. For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way.

    2nd Peter 3:5-7.

  20. Brother Sean....Good Morning! I apologize. For some reason I can't seem to post under my google account.

    Anyways, here is something I wanted to share with my you guys.

    The head of the International Atomic Energy Agency, Rafael Grossi, in his speech before the Agency's Board of Governors, says that "for the first time, the Agency installed a monitoring device for the enrichment at the Purdue and Natanz facilities. Grossi: "This will help us identify more quickly any changes in the levels of enrichment in these facilities." (cue head scratching and crickets) Ohhhhhhh, so NOOWWW they're able to install a monitoring device. Funny, and just when it seems that Israel is getting to a point to attack. But why? Oo, Oo....I know, that way they can spew all their filthy lies saying see Iran is cooperating and point and put the blame on Israel.

    But then again, I could very well be way off base.

    Stay strong brethren....love ya guys! Brother Frank

  22. Israel is now prepared for war on multiple fronts, exactly as described within the several prophecies we've discussed for at least the past decade.

    Israel taking on multiple enemies - from Iran, to Hezbollah, to rump Syria as well as terrorists in Gaza, Judea and Samaria - will be as difficult as can be imagined, with grave losses of human life and infrastructure. But on the other side of this war Israel's "inner circle" enemies will no longer pose any threat.

  23. There are very strong indications that Iran (IRCG-QF) and its proxy forces in Iraq and Syria will soon launch a coordinated campaign to attack and kill large numbers of U.S. troops and contractors.

    The U.S. troops and support contractors serve as a type of buffer between Iranian forces (IRGC-QF and proxies) and their objective of attacking Israel directly. The objective of the campaign is to force a hasty U.S. military withdrawal from Iraq and Syria via high body count. Initial attacks will likely be via IEDs of the formed penetrator (FPIED) type used extensively against U.S. forces in Iraq several years ago when hundreds were killed or maimed for life. Iran wants to set conditions to result in a hasty US withdrawal a la Afghanistan. Iran would then be able the launch a coordinated ground war against Israel.

    There's a also a possibility of Russian forces in Syria supporting the Iranian objectives in direct contact with U.S. armored patrols in northeastern Syria.
