Chuck Carlson notes that US intelligence claims to know when a single Russian truck crosses the border into Ukraine, and the make and model of the truck.  Why does it not tell us who pays the ISIL (Islamic State In Levant, aka ISIS - Islamic State in Syria or IS - Islamic State) army and who manufactures its trucks, guns and tanks". Could the blackout on such vital information be intentional?   

Pastor John Hagee of Christians United For Israel recently wrote a book, Four Blood Moons: Something Is About To Change, that is a New York Times bestseller.  It seems Hagee is trying to speed up the return of Jesus using a predictable astronomical event as a sign of the end times.  Our friend Pastor William Bell (Eschatology: All Things Fulfilled) has studied Hagee's scriptural claims in his book and replies in this podcast with logical and well reasoned, scriptural challenges.

Pastor George Morrison of Faith Bible Chapel says that they have been honoring Israel for over 35 years.  Once again, Chuck Carlson and his team conducted a vigil in front of Faith Bible Chapel in Arvada, CO during the Christians United For Israel's "Night To Honor Israel" event featuring John Hagee.  WHTT's "inside man," Craig Hanson, reports that Jesus, definitely, played second fiddle at this event.  Don't miss Craig's insightful analysis of the program and Chuck's details on the outside activities.

Just when you thought it was safe to get into the water, John Hagee of Christians United For Israel has declared, on the Hagee Hotline program, that President Obama is not sufficiently kind to Israel.  It seems the President wants to keep the "true " capital of Israel, Jerusalem, divided between Palestinians and Jews rather then uniting it under Israel.  Hagee contends that this will result in a judgment by God against the United States in the form of the Ebola outbreak.  This is one and half minute segment extracted from the Hagee Hotline program, hosted by Mathew Hagee (son of John Hagee), left us amazed. You can watch the entire program by going to Hagee Hotline [the program has been removed as of 11/17/2014. Imagine that!] but you will have to sign by giving your name and email address (but, hey, it's free and one of the best entertainment values around!).

Sometimes, you have to step back to get the whole, big picture, of America's latest enemies.  Over the decades, the US has developed many innovative ways to create new enemies.  This Australian documentary, Iraq's Missing Billions (2006), demonstrates this during the US administered, initial rebuilding of Iraq's damaged infrastructure after the 2003 Gulf War.  The squandering of the Iraqis' own money by the US, shown in this documentary, is disgusting, but informative.  For some more relevant background to the ISIL/ISIS/IS phenomena, read John Pilger historical context article, "From Pol Pot to ISIS." Then, if you haven't seen John Pilger's documentary The War You Don't See, watch it to learn how Americans are conditioned to accept the United States' serial wars.  Finally, Mike Whitney's article,"America's 'Terrorist Academy' in Iraq Produced ISIS Leaders," sheds some new light on ISIL.
