WEBVTT 00:00:00.840 --> 00:00:03.120 Greetings to each of you, and welcome to this 00:00:03.120 --> 00:00:06.000 week's edition of Faith to Live By. I'm Pam Christian, 00:00:06.219 --> 00:00:08.380 your host and researcher, writer, and producer 00:00:08.380 --> 00:00:11.800 for the past five and a half years, with today's 00:00:11.800 --> 00:00:15.320 program actually being number 300. And that doesn't 00:00:15.320 --> 00:00:17.800 include the bonuses and the extra programs I've 00:00:17.800 --> 00:00:21.120 posted, but just the 300 consecutive weeks of 00:00:21.120 --> 00:00:24.219 my regular episodes of Faith to Live By produced 00:00:24.219 --> 00:00:28.500 to help all of us discover and live in life -giving 00:00:28.500 --> 00:00:31.309 truth. A few things that sets this program apart 00:00:31.309 --> 00:00:34.350 from others. I overlay the word of God from the 00:00:34.350 --> 00:00:37.609 Bible and from the prophetic in effort to discern 00:00:37.609 --> 00:00:40.229 the times we're living to know how God wants 00:00:40.229 --> 00:00:43.990 his people to respond. I do my best to research 00:00:43.990 --> 00:00:46.850 history so we can have an accurate understanding 00:00:46.850 --> 00:00:49.630 of current world events without getting caught 00:00:49.630 --> 00:00:52.750 up in the intentional globalist propaganda and 00:00:52.750 --> 00:00:56.210 narratives or the emotional and irrational rants 00:00:56.210 --> 00:00:59.719 that many others succumb to. And I always focus 00:00:59.719 --> 00:01:02.479 on the real and certain hope and future God has 00:01:02.479 --> 00:01:05.180 promised to all of his people, especially in 00:01:05.180 --> 00:01:08.340 the face of the most frightening times. I help 00:01:08.340 --> 00:01:12.019 God's people stay focused on God's promises and 00:01:12.019 --> 00:01:15.939 assured victory, not the chaos and fear of the 00:01:15.939 --> 00:01:20.049 enemy. So today, with the rapid intensification 00:01:20.049 --> 00:01:23.109 and volatility of the present times, with the 00:01:23.109 --> 00:01:25.650 serious threats to all the nations of the world, 00:01:26.189 --> 00:01:28.989 with explosive deceptive narratives from the 00:01:28.989 --> 00:01:31.930 enemy intended to cause fear and division so 00:01:31.930 --> 00:01:34.750 evil can gain the upper hand, in light of the 00:01:34.750 --> 00:01:36.969 intentional chaos attempting to keep the people 00:01:36.969 --> 00:01:40.989 of the world confused, I want to devote today's 00:01:40.989 --> 00:01:44.200 program helping us see the real and certain hope 00:01:44.200 --> 00:01:47.260 God has been giving his people, reassuring us 00:01:47.260 --> 00:01:50.480 that God will prevail and what we must do in 00:01:50.480 --> 00:01:53.359 partnership with God if we want to see his promised 00:01:53.359 --> 00:01:58.379 victory. Psalm 16 9 is very clear. In their hearts, 00:01:58.680 --> 00:02:02.260 humans plan their course, but the Lord establishes 00:02:02.260 --> 00:02:05.540 their steps. Let us take confidence in this promise 00:02:05.540 --> 00:02:09.259 that those who plan evil courses will not prevail 00:02:09.259 --> 00:02:12.789 because the Lord God establishes the steps for 00:02:12.789 --> 00:02:15.710 every one of us. I ask you to make a point of 00:02:15.710 --> 00:02:17.949 sharing today's podcast with anyone and everyone 00:02:17.949 --> 00:02:21.389 you can so more people are encouraged and emboldened 00:02:21.389 --> 00:02:25.430 by the promises of God to become actively engaged 00:02:25.430 --> 00:02:28.789 in the spiritual battle we must fight if we want 00:02:28.789 --> 00:02:32.449 to see good prevail. We are in a spiritual battle. 00:02:32.629 --> 00:02:35.129 I think by now the whole world is awakened to 00:02:35.129 --> 00:02:38.069 this truth. Everything in this natural world 00:02:38.069 --> 00:02:41.039 is governed by the spiritual world. depending 00:02:41.039 --> 00:02:44.000 upon how humans respond, the spiritual world 00:02:44.000 --> 00:02:47.560 is impacted. If we lose sight of this truth and 00:02:47.560 --> 00:02:50.539 begin to operate in fear, we will give power 00:02:50.539 --> 00:02:53.740 for the advancement of evil on earth. However, 00:02:53.800 --> 00:02:57.280 if we remain steadfast to the truth of God and 00:02:57.280 --> 00:03:00.259 remain faithful to Him, we give power for the 00:03:00.259 --> 00:03:03.539 advancement of God's kingdom will on earth. Our 00:03:03.539 --> 00:03:08.259 temporal lives on earth actually impact our personal 00:03:08.259 --> 00:03:12.780 eternal future. This is the crux of the spiritual 00:03:12.780 --> 00:03:15.919 battle. With that firmly fixed in our minds, 00:03:16.199 --> 00:03:18.659 let's consider how the spiritual world of good 00:03:18.659 --> 00:03:22.240 and evil are the sources behind the Israel, United 00:03:22.240 --> 00:03:26.460 States, and Iran conflict, and all earthly conflicts. 00:03:27.319 --> 00:03:30.580 I ask you to consider my deeply held points of 00:03:30.580 --> 00:03:33.620 view. First, what the whole world is watching 00:03:33.620 --> 00:03:36.080 take place in the Middle East is a matter of 00:03:36.080 --> 00:03:38.919 supernatural spiritual forces at work within 00:03:38.919 --> 00:03:42.479 our natural world. Contrary to what some claim, 00:03:43.000 --> 00:03:46.500 I believe all wars are spiritually driven, and 00:03:46.500 --> 00:03:49.759 in that respect I would say all wars are religious 00:03:49.759 --> 00:03:53.460 wars. Regarding spiritual forces, there are only 00:03:53.460 --> 00:03:57.180 two, good and evil. There is nothing in between, 00:03:57.219 --> 00:04:00.000 although forces of evil have advanced the deception 00:04:00.000 --> 00:04:03.520 of a third force. An example of a claim of a 00:04:03.520 --> 00:04:06.300 third force would be witchcraft, where the adherents 00:04:06.300 --> 00:04:09.740 claim to only practice good or white witchcraft, 00:04:10.180 --> 00:04:14.400 or psychic powers, or astrology, or secret societies 00:04:14.400 --> 00:04:18.839 such as Freemasons and so on. God is personified 00:04:18.839 --> 00:04:22.399 by God, the creator of all that exists. Evil 00:04:22.399 --> 00:04:25.519 is personified by Satan who was created by God 00:04:25.519 --> 00:04:28.620 and who chose to rebel against God and become 00:04:28.620 --> 00:04:32.519 God's enemy. Both God and Satan have angelic 00:04:32.519 --> 00:04:35.259 adherents who carry out their instructions from 00:04:35.259 --> 00:04:37.920 the supernatural world in ways that directly 00:04:37.920 --> 00:04:41.959 impact the natural world. Therefore, depending 00:04:41.959 --> 00:04:45.079 upon how humans respond to these two forces and 00:04:45.079 --> 00:04:47.819 their angels, we experience the advancement of 00:04:47.819 --> 00:04:52.259 good or evil in our natural world. Human beings 00:04:52.259 --> 00:04:54.899 are the target, so to speak, of both God and 00:04:54.899 --> 00:04:57.459 Satan. God works to bring human beings to the 00:04:57.459 --> 00:05:00.300 knowledge of truth, of Him, so people willingly 00:05:00.300 --> 00:05:03.899 choose to be aligned with God. Satan works to 00:05:03.899 --> 00:05:06.300 deceive human beings so people will willingly 00:05:06.300 --> 00:05:09.959 reject God. As I've stated before, by default, 00:05:10.399 --> 00:05:13.540 to reject God is to choose to be aligned with 00:05:13.540 --> 00:05:17.079 Satan. Good is what most people openly declare 00:05:17.079 --> 00:05:20.079 they want to be associated with. By comparison, 00:05:20.399 --> 00:05:22.939 few people knowingly admit to wanting to be aligned 00:05:22.939 --> 00:05:26.160 with evil. Likewise, most people claim they want 00:05:26.160 --> 00:05:28.620 to be guided by and live on the basis of truth, 00:05:29.000 --> 00:05:32.339 believing truth is good. Most people agree lies 00:05:32.339 --> 00:05:35.639 are bad and lead to destruction. However, many 00:05:35.639 --> 00:05:38.079 people are deceived, and because the nature of 00:05:38.079 --> 00:05:40.040 deception means the victim is unaware of their 00:05:40.040 --> 00:05:43.180 condition, these people believe and perpetuate 00:05:43.180 --> 00:05:47.579 lies without realizing it. If you believe the 00:05:47.579 --> 00:05:50.660 human spirit is eternal and the ultimate destiny 00:05:50.660 --> 00:05:53.319 of each of us depends on whether we live on truth 00:05:53.319 --> 00:05:57.139 or deception, then being confident what you believe 00:05:57.139 --> 00:06:00.860 is based on truth becomes of essential importance, 00:06:01.019 --> 00:06:05.439 or better stated, of eternal importance. The 00:06:05.439 --> 00:06:08.100 basic human desire to know truth and to know 00:06:08.100 --> 00:06:11.100 our origin and our destiny is the premise from 00:06:11.100 --> 00:06:14.860 which all religions are birthed. A definition 00:06:14.860 --> 00:06:18.120 of religion most people accept is religion is 00:06:18.120 --> 00:06:21.439 a complex social -cultural system of beliefs, 00:06:22.019 --> 00:06:25.399 behaviors, practices, and ethics that connects 00:06:25.399 --> 00:06:29.000 humanity to supernatural, transcendental, or 00:06:29.000 --> 00:06:32.839 spiritual elements, deity or deities, which the 00:06:32.839 --> 00:06:35.899 people of the particular religion seek to appease 00:06:35.899 --> 00:06:39.660 and or worship. In the Bible, when speaking of 00:06:39.660 --> 00:06:43.000 nations, God is always referencing people groups. 00:06:43.620 --> 00:06:46.699 When characterizing nations, God identifies sheep 00:06:46.699 --> 00:06:49.740 nations, which are those who seek Him, and goat 00:06:49.740 --> 00:06:52.379 nations, which are nations that do not seek God 00:06:52.379 --> 00:06:55.100 and therefore have come to recognize and worship 00:06:55.100 --> 00:06:58.579 a variety of different so -called gods who, in 00:06:58.579 --> 00:07:02.259 reality, are satanic imposters of the one true 00:07:02.259 --> 00:07:05.680 God. The Bible clearly states the nations, that 00:07:05.680 --> 00:07:08.579 is the sheep nations, are Christ's inheritance. 00:07:09.600 --> 00:07:11.800 Is it any wonder then that the enemy of God, 00:07:12.019 --> 00:07:15.000 Satan, would work so hard to corrupt nations 00:07:15.000 --> 00:07:19.899 of people away from God? Historically speaking, 00:07:20.360 --> 00:07:23.259 nations are comprised of people who essentially 00:07:23.259 --> 00:07:26.220 gather to live in harmony on the basis of their 00:07:26.220 --> 00:07:29.990 common beliefs, including religious. Typically, 00:07:30.389 --> 00:07:33.269 these nations form governments that reflect the 00:07:33.269 --> 00:07:35.750 common beliefs of the people, which includes 00:07:35.750 --> 00:07:39.370 religious beliefs. Certainly not everyone who 00:07:39.370 --> 00:07:42.329 lives in a nation holds the same religious beliefs, 00:07:42.790 --> 00:07:46.250 but nations can be characterized by specific 00:07:46.250 --> 00:07:49.470 religions. There are five major world religions 00:07:49.470 --> 00:07:52.310 today and what I classify a religion known as 00:07:52.310 --> 00:07:55.730 secular or non -religious new age. I explore 00:07:55.730 --> 00:07:58.879 these six in appreciable detail in my book, Examine 00:07:58.879 --> 00:08:01.720 Your Faith, Finding Truth in a World of Lies. 00:08:02.100 --> 00:08:04.920 The sixth are Christianity, representing 2 .5 00:08:04.920 --> 00:08:09.600 billion people, Islam at 2 billion people, secular, 00:08:09.680 --> 00:08:13.920 non -religious New Age at 1 .9 billion, Hinduism 00:08:13.920 --> 00:08:19.000 at 1 .2 billion, Buddhism at 530 million, and 00:08:19.000 --> 00:08:23.040 Judaism at only 16 million. For the record, that 00:08:23.040 --> 00:08:27.699 is a total of 8 ,730 ,000 ,000 people out of 00:08:27.699 --> 00:08:32.580 the estimated 8 .3 billion alive today. According 00:08:32.580 --> 00:08:36.039 to internet research, Currently Islam is widely 00:08:36.039 --> 00:08:38.259 recognized as the fastest growing religion in 00:08:38.259 --> 00:08:41.519 the world, driven by a young population and high 00:08:41.519 --> 00:08:45.080 fertility rates. While Christianity is also experiencing 00:08:45.080 --> 00:08:47.860 significant growth in the global south through 00:08:47.860 --> 00:08:51.159 high birth rates and conversions, Islam is projected 00:08:51.159 --> 00:08:54.460 to surpass Christianity in total numbers in the 00:08:54.460 --> 00:08:58.179 coming decades. However, according to the word 00:08:58.179 --> 00:09:01.919 of God, Both the Bible and prophetic words, we 00:09:01.919 --> 00:09:04.659 will see a time when there is an unprecedented 00:09:04.659 --> 00:09:07.820 number of souls come to embrace the saving knowledge 00:09:07.820 --> 00:09:10.980 of Jesus Christ. This time is known as the Great 00:09:10.980 --> 00:09:13.639 Harvest of Souls or the Billion Soul Harvest, 00:09:14.120 --> 00:09:16.159 where the number of Christians on earth will 00:09:16.159 --> 00:09:19.220 far outnumber all the other religious faiths, 00:09:19.360 --> 00:09:22.700 and evidence reveals we have already entered 00:09:22.700 --> 00:09:27.269 that time. Last week I shared how Judaism Christianity 00:09:27.269 --> 00:09:30.350 and Islam all three claim the same spiritual 00:09:30.350 --> 00:09:35.490 ancestor of Abram or Abraham or Ibrahim as the 00:09:35.490 --> 00:09:40.850 Muslims say Abraham the very man God called is 00:09:40.850 --> 00:09:43.570 recorded in the book of Genesis to be the father 00:09:43.570 --> 00:09:47.110 of all nations If you did not hear last week's 00:09:47.110 --> 00:09:49.909 podcast, I hope you will as you will gain or 00:09:49.909 --> 00:09:52.649 be reminded of some very important foundational 00:09:52.649 --> 00:09:57.039 truths In any religion, there are sects. Within 00:09:57.039 --> 00:10:00.620 Islam, there are two main branches, Sunni and 00:10:00.620 --> 00:10:03.399 Shia. These originated from a seventh -century 00:10:03.399 --> 00:10:06.039 dispute over the leadership succession after 00:10:06.039 --> 00:10:09.860 Prophet Muhammad. Sunnis make up roughly 85 to 00:10:09.860 --> 00:10:13.039 90 percent of Muslims emphasizing adherence to 00:10:13.039 --> 00:10:16.779 traditions, while Shias comprise about 10 to 00:10:16.779 --> 00:10:19.980 15 percent who focus on the lineage of Prophet 00:10:19.980 --> 00:10:24.820 Muhammad's family. Since the 1979 Islamic Revolution, 00:10:25.240 --> 00:10:28.580 to the present day, the Iranian government, which 00:10:28.580 --> 00:10:31.279 the British Empire helped to establish to further 00:10:31.279 --> 00:10:35.340 their agenda, is a Twelver Shia Muslim theocracy 00:10:35.340 --> 00:10:38.759 and officially an Islamic Republic with its own 00:10:38.759 --> 00:10:42.539 constitution establishing Twelver Shiism as the 00:10:42.539 --> 00:10:45.450 official state religion. For the past nearly 00:10:45.450 --> 00:10:48.389 50 years, this government has been instilling 00:10:48.389 --> 00:10:51.970 and fanning hatred for the Jews and Israel and 00:10:51.970 --> 00:10:55.169 Christians and the United States, openly declaring 00:10:55.169 --> 00:10:59.269 death to both. The Shia regime has repeatedly 00:10:59.269 --> 00:11:01.730 called for death to America, the great Satan, 00:11:02.210 --> 00:11:05.110 and death to Israel, the little Satan. At the 00:11:05.110 --> 00:11:08.830 same time, this regime has brutally treated its 00:11:08.830 --> 00:11:12.730 own Iranian citizens. It is from the Shia sect 00:11:12.730 --> 00:11:15.690 that the Muslim Brotherhood extends, a group 00:11:15.690 --> 00:11:17.929 that has been recognized as a major terrorist 00:11:17.929 --> 00:11:21.309 group by several countries. Egypt officially 00:11:21.309 --> 00:11:23.549 designated the group as a terrorist group on 00:11:23.549 --> 00:11:27.629 December 25th. 2013, with Saudi Arabia and the 00:11:27.629 --> 00:11:31.789 UAE doing the same in March 2014. Other nations, 00:11:31.929 --> 00:11:34.509 including Austria, listed the Muslim Brotherhood 00:11:34.509 --> 00:11:37.850 in 2021, and the United States began imposing 00:11:37.850 --> 00:11:41.370 targeted sanctions on specific chapters in January 00:11:41.370 --> 00:11:47.250 2026. Make a note that in 2017, the United States 00:11:47.250 --> 00:11:49.950 Department of State published a piece titled 00:11:50.700 --> 00:11:54.480 the Islamic Republic of Iran a dangerous regime 00:11:54.480 --> 00:11:57.580 end quote. I have links for you in the show notes 00:11:57.580 --> 00:12:00.799 where you can learn more. The vast majority of 00:12:00.799 --> 00:12:03.539 practicing Muslims are not radicalized and do 00:12:03.539 --> 00:12:06.299 not wish death to Israel or to the United States. 00:12:06.559 --> 00:12:09.720 In fact, before the 1979 regime change of Iran, 00:12:10.200 --> 00:12:12.620 the Sunni people embraced much of our Western 00:12:12.620 --> 00:12:15.519 culture and lived in a freedom they hoped to 00:12:15.519 --> 00:12:18.799 regain. The Iranian residents, and in fact the 00:12:18.799 --> 00:12:21.919 whole world, has been subjected to the oppressive 00:12:21.919 --> 00:12:25.679 and tyrannical goals and aims of the Shia Muslims. 00:12:26.659 --> 00:12:29.720 Specific to the current conflict, in response 00:12:29.720 --> 00:12:33.440 to a culmination of years of proxy conflict that 00:12:33.440 --> 00:12:37.340 escalated into the October 7, 2023 attack by 00:12:37.340 --> 00:12:41.000 Hamas on Israel, resulting in persistent fighting 00:12:41.000 --> 00:12:44.299 between Israel and Iran -backed groups Hamas 00:12:44.299 --> 00:12:49.000 and Hezbollah, on June 13, 2025, Israel launched 00:12:49.000 --> 00:12:53.039 strikes on nuclear sites like Natanz, Fordow, 00:12:53.360 --> 00:12:56.470 and Isfahan. along with assassinating key military 00:12:56.470 --> 00:13:00.970 personnel. Iran retaliated for the June 13 attacks 00:13:00.970 --> 00:13:03.409 with hundreds of drones and missiles leading 00:13:03.409 --> 00:13:06.789 to a direct United States brokered conflict that 00:13:06.789 --> 00:13:10.409 lasted for 12 days before a ceasefire. As you 00:13:10.409 --> 00:13:12.950 know the United States assisted in the destruction 00:13:12.950 --> 00:13:15.950 of Iran's nuclear efforts by sending our bunker 00:13:15.950 --> 00:13:19.490 bombers to take out the three main nuclear sites. 00:13:20.080 --> 00:13:22.919 Following this, there were many efforts by President 00:13:22.919 --> 00:13:26.519 Trump to gain a ceasefire between Iran and Israel 00:13:26.519 --> 00:13:29.700 and to have Iran agree to completely abandon 00:13:29.700 --> 00:13:33.500 nuclear ambitions, noting Iran posed a serious 00:13:33.500 --> 00:13:36.539 threat for World War III. President Trump presented 00:13:36.539 --> 00:13:40.259 demands for a deal that must address complete 00:13:40.259 --> 00:13:44.059 verifiable halt to uranium enrichment and dismantling 00:13:44.059 --> 00:13:47.899 of nuclear facilities. suspension of Iran's ballistic 00:13:47.899 --> 00:13:51.539 missile program and ending support for regional 00:13:51.539 --> 00:13:56.470 proxies of Hezbollah, Houthis and Hamas. Understand, 00:13:56.730 --> 00:13:59.870 Iran's support network, known as the Axis of 00:13:59.870 --> 00:14:03.730 Resistance, includes Shia groups like Hezbollah 00:14:03.730 --> 00:14:07.190 in Lebanon, the Houthi movement in Yemen, and 00:14:07.190 --> 00:14:10.870 various militias in Iraq and Syria and the Muslim 00:14:10.870 --> 00:14:15.090 Brotherhood that has sectors worldwide. Additionally, 00:14:15.450 --> 00:14:18.029 Russia and China provide diplomatic and strategic 00:14:18.029 --> 00:14:22.120 backing for Iran. At this point, I want to insert 00:14:22.120 --> 00:14:25.519 an audio presentation by Barbara Boyd from Promethean 00:14:25.519 --> 00:14:28.399 Action, who published this early in March at 00:14:28.399 --> 00:14:32.159 the start of the Israel slash USA and Iran conflict. 00:14:38.059 --> 00:14:42.220 The bombs are falling on Tehran right now. This 00:14:42.220 --> 00:14:44.720 morning, the United States and Israel launched 00:14:44.720 --> 00:14:48.240 major combat operations against Tehran. And while 00:14:48.240 --> 00:14:51.379 every talking head in the Western world is screaming 00:14:51.379 --> 00:14:54.679 that this is Iraq 2 .0, listen to what the president 00:14:54.679 --> 00:14:57.980 actually said to the Iranian people. To the great, 00:14:58.240 --> 00:15:01.240 proud people of Iran, I say tonight that the 00:15:01.240 --> 00:15:03.919 hour of your freedom is at hand. When we are 00:15:03.919 --> 00:15:06.139 finished, take over your government. It will 00:15:06.139 --> 00:15:10.460 be yours to take. This will be probably your 00:15:10.460 --> 00:15:14.840 only chance for generations. Take over your government, 00:15:15.000 --> 00:15:18.299 it will be yours to take. That is not the language 00:15:18.299 --> 00:15:22.019 of regime change. That is not Iraq. And people 00:15:22.019 --> 00:15:24.799 screaming that are either lying to you or they 00:15:24.799 --> 00:15:27.159 don't understand what you're looking at. Right 00:15:27.159 --> 00:15:29.840 on cue, the New York Times editorial board is 00:15:29.840 --> 00:15:33.500 out shrieking that Trump is a madman who promised 00:15:33.500 --> 00:15:37.360 no new wars. The anti -war crowd on both sides 00:15:37.360 --> 00:15:40.659 is screaming regime change. They're all wrong, 00:15:40.779 --> 00:15:44.039 and I'll tell you why. This is not Iraq. Iraq 00:15:44.039 --> 00:15:46.919 was about installing a new set of imperial puppets. 00:15:47.419 --> 00:15:50.360 What Trump just hit is the last stronghold of 00:15:50.360 --> 00:15:53.179 a British operation that has controlled Iran's 00:15:53.179 --> 00:15:57.120 destiny since 1908, the year British Petroleum 00:15:57.120 --> 00:16:00.860 seized its first oil well on Iranian soil. For 00:16:00.860 --> 00:16:04.700 118 years, every government in Iran, the Shah, 00:16:04.940 --> 00:16:07.919 the Ayatollahs, has served the same master. a 00:16:07.919 --> 00:16:10.600 financial architecture built by the city of London 00:16:10.600 --> 00:16:14.240 around Middle Eastern oil. And every war in that 00:16:14.240 --> 00:16:17.080 region has been designed to protect it. Donald 00:16:17.080 --> 00:16:20.080 Trump has spent the last year dismantling that 00:16:20.080 --> 00:16:23.740 architecture piece by piece. The Abraham Accords, 00:16:24.120 --> 00:16:27.500 the Board of Peace. Two trillion dollars in Gulf 00:16:27.500 --> 00:16:30.740 wealth redirected from London to American manufacturing. 00:16:31.259 --> 00:16:33.659 The Muslim Brotherhood designated as terrorists. 00:16:34.360 --> 00:16:37.529 Gaza being rebuilt. The moas were the last piece 00:16:37.529 --> 00:16:41.029 on the board. And as of this morning, Trump is 00:16:41.029 --> 00:16:44.070 clearing it. I'm Barbara Boyd. I followed and 00:16:44.070 --> 00:16:46.470 studied wars in the Middle East ever since the 00:16:46.470 --> 00:16:50.129 Khomeini Revolution in 1979. And my colleagues 00:16:50.129 --> 00:16:52.649 at Promethean Action have drafted the British 00:16:52.649 --> 00:16:55.850 Empire's financial operations for over 50 years. 00:16:56.269 --> 00:16:58.269 Here's what I'm going to cover today. First, 00:16:58.429 --> 00:17:01.230 what this strike actually is and why JD Vance 00:17:01.230 --> 00:17:05.119 told us two days ago this would not become another 00:17:05.119 --> 00:17:09.539 forever war. Second, the 118 -year British operation 00:17:09.539 --> 00:17:12.960 on Iran that the New York Times will never explain 00:17:12.960 --> 00:17:16.720 to you. And third, why this strike is the final 00:17:16.720 --> 00:17:19.759 move in Trump's board of peace strategy and what 00:17:19.759 --> 00:17:22.640 it means for the British financial empire. Let's 00:17:22.640 --> 00:17:24.779 start with what actually happened. The president 00:17:24.779 --> 00:17:26.940 gave an eight -minute address earlier this morning 00:17:26.940 --> 00:17:30.420 announcing what the Department of War is calling 00:17:30.420 --> 00:17:34.160 Operation Epic Fury. He was clear about the objectives. 00:17:57.049 --> 00:18:01.029 He listed the regime's crimes going back 47 years 00:18:01.029 --> 00:18:03.710 from the hostage crisis to the Marine barracks 00:18:03.710 --> 00:18:07.210 bombing to the October 7th attacks. He emphasized 00:18:07.210 --> 00:18:10.809 that Iran has rejected every opportunity to renounce 00:18:10.809 --> 00:18:13.690 its nuclear ambitions. And then he said this 00:18:13.690 --> 00:18:16.230 to the Iranian people. When we are finished, 00:18:16.269 --> 00:18:19.329 take over your government. It will be yours to 00:18:19.329 --> 00:18:23.529 take. This will be probably your only chance 00:18:23.529 --> 00:18:27.299 for generations. Now listen carefully to that. 00:18:27.460 --> 00:18:30.900 He did not say the U .S. would install a new 00:18:30.900 --> 00:18:33.900 government. He said it would be theirs to take. 00:18:34.500 --> 00:18:37.180 This is a fundamentally different statement than 00:18:37.180 --> 00:18:40.700 anything George W. Bush said about Iraq. Bush 00:18:40.700 --> 00:18:44.200 dismantled the entire Iraqi state, fired the 00:18:44.200 --> 00:18:47.279 police, the generals, everybody. And as Trump 00:18:47.279 --> 00:18:49.759 himself said a few weeks ago about Venezuela, 00:18:51.750 --> 00:18:54.250 remember a place called Iraq where everybody 00:18:54.250 --> 00:18:57.869 was fired, every single person, the police, the 00:18:57.869 --> 00:19:01.049 generals, everybody was fired. And they ended 00:19:01.049 --> 00:19:04.250 up being ISIS. Instead of just getting down to 00:19:04.250 --> 00:19:06.470 business, they ended up being ISIS. So I remember 00:19:06.470 --> 00:19:09.650 that. Club knows the Iraq playbook. He rejected 00:19:09.650 --> 00:19:12.170 it in Venezuela, where he captured Maduro, but 00:19:12.170 --> 00:19:14.630 left the government intact and immediately began 00:19:14.630 --> 00:19:17.269 dealing with Maduro's vice president. And he's 00:19:17.269 --> 00:19:19.930 telling us he's rejecting it here. But don't 00:19:19.930 --> 00:19:22.930 take my word for it. On Friday morning, Vice 00:19:22.930 --> 00:19:24.650 President J .D. Vance went to the Washington 00:19:24.650 --> 00:19:28.390 Post, the establishment's own publication, and 00:19:28.390 --> 00:19:31.430 said this, the idea that we're going to be in 00:19:31.430 --> 00:19:34.130 a Middle East war for years with no end in sight, 00:19:34.289 --> 00:19:37.069 there is no chance that will happen. Did you 00:19:37.069 --> 00:19:41.369 catch that? No chance. And Vance isn't some armchair 00:19:41.369 --> 00:19:45.230 analyst. He's a Marine who served in Iraq. He 00:19:45.230 --> 00:19:47.829 built his political career unopposing foreign 00:19:47.829 --> 00:19:51.240 wars. and he said, there is no chance this becomes 00:19:51.240 --> 00:19:53.920 one. And he told the Post the strikes would be 00:19:53.920 --> 00:19:57.460 targeted and lethal aimed at ensuring Iran doesn't 00:19:57.460 --> 00:20:00.819 get a nuclear weapon, not at occupying a country 00:20:00.819 --> 00:20:04.640 of 90 million people. Now, the New York Times 00:20:04.640 --> 00:20:07.799 editorial board pulled off an extraordinary contortion 00:20:07.799 --> 00:20:10.680 today. They'd announced the war as the act of 00:20:10.680 --> 00:20:13.779 a madman, but that admitted in their own editorial 00:20:13.779 --> 00:20:16.839 that Iran presents, and I'm quoting them here, 00:20:17.140 --> 00:20:19.910 quote, a distinct threat because it combines 00:20:19.910 --> 00:20:23.809 murderous ideology with nuclear ambitions. They 00:20:23.809 --> 00:20:25.950 even acknowledge that the American presence of 00:20:25.950 --> 00:20:28.349 both parties have rightly committed to preventing 00:20:28.349 --> 00:20:31.769 Tehran from getting a bomb. So which is it? Is 00:20:31.769 --> 00:20:34.450 Trump a madman or is he doing what every president 00:20:34.450 --> 00:20:37.910 has said needed to be done? The times can't decide 00:20:37.910 --> 00:20:40.069 because the truth doesn't fit their narrative. 00:20:40.490 --> 00:20:42.809 Now, if you're beginning to realize that this 00:20:42.809 --> 00:20:44.930 war is very different from what the media is 00:20:44.930 --> 00:20:47.569 telling you, you need to subscribe to Promethean 00:20:47.569 --> 00:20:50.170 Action's free newsletter. We've been tracking 00:20:50.170 --> 00:20:52.670 the British Empire's operations in the Middle 00:20:52.670 --> 00:20:55.829 East for 50 years or more. And right now, you 00:20:55.829 --> 00:20:59.089 need that context more than ever, because here's 00:20:59.089 --> 00:21:02.849 what the narrative is designed to hide. To understand 00:21:02.849 --> 00:21:05.589 what Trump just struck, you need to understand 00:21:05.589 --> 00:21:08.630 what Iran actually is in the global power structure. 00:21:08.930 --> 00:21:12.609 And that story begins in 1908. In that year, 00:21:12.650 --> 00:21:15.910 a British speculator named William Knox Darcy 00:21:15.910 --> 00:21:19.210 struck oil in southwest Persia. He had purchased 00:21:19.210 --> 00:21:22.089 exclusive extraction rights from the Persian 00:21:22.089 --> 00:21:26.009 Shah for a pittance, just 16 % of profits, with 00:21:26.009 --> 00:21:29.650 no Iranian allowed to audit the books. From that 00:21:29.650 --> 00:21:32.769 single concession, the Anglo -Persian Oil Company 00:21:32.769 --> 00:21:36.309 was born. It later became the Anglo -Iranian 00:21:36.309 --> 00:21:40.109 Oil Company. Today, you know it as British Petroleum, 00:21:40.250 --> 00:21:43.640 BP. Winston Churchill as First Lord of the Admiralty 00:21:43.640 --> 00:21:47.559 called it, quote, a prize from fairyland, beyond 00:21:47.559 --> 00:21:50.799 our wildest dreams. And he met it. The British 00:21:50.799 --> 00:21:53.680 government bought a 51 % controlling stake in 00:21:53.680 --> 00:21:58.779 1914. The Royal Navy ran on Iranian oil. Britain's 00:21:58.779 --> 00:22:01.460 entire standard of living in the first half of 00:22:01.460 --> 00:22:04.859 the 20th century was subsidized by wealth extracted 00:22:04.859 --> 00:22:09.480 from Iran. In 1950, Abidjan had become the world's 00:22:09.480 --> 00:22:12.960 largest refinery. The Anglo -Iranian oil company 00:22:12.960 --> 00:22:16.660 controlled all oil in Iran, while Iranian workers 00:22:16.660 --> 00:22:19.420 lived in shanty counts without running water. 00:22:19.859 --> 00:22:22.480 Think about that. The same empire that people 00:22:22.480 --> 00:22:25.619 think of as a quaint historical artifact was 00:22:25.619 --> 00:22:28.819 literally powered by Iranian oil and the Iranians 00:22:28.819 --> 00:22:32.599 got almost nothing. So when Iranian nationalists 00:22:32.599 --> 00:22:35.640 finally rose up and elected Mohammed Mosaddegh 00:22:35.640 --> 00:22:39.660 as prime minister in 1951, a man who nationalized 00:22:39.660 --> 00:22:42.660 the oil company for his own people. What happened? 00:22:43.180 --> 00:22:46.500 The British and the CIA overthrew him in 1953. 00:22:47.440 --> 00:22:50.140 Operation Ajax, they called it. They installed 00:22:50.140 --> 00:22:52.900 the Shah as their puppet. And who did they use 00:22:52.900 --> 00:22:55.339 on the ground to create the chaos with the coup? 00:22:55.900 --> 00:22:58.599 The Muslim Brotherhood, the same organization 00:22:58.599 --> 00:23:01.519 Trump designated as terrorists just weeks ago. 00:23:01.920 --> 00:23:04.160 Mark Curtis documents how the British and the 00:23:04.160 --> 00:23:07.990 CIA paid the Ayatollah Khashoggi who was Khomeini's 00:23:07.990 --> 00:23:11.089 own mentor for street violence during the uprising. 00:23:11.650 --> 00:23:13.950 Now here's where it gets really interesting. 00:23:14.230 --> 00:23:17.049 When the Shah outlived his useless, what happened? 00:23:17.470 --> 00:23:20.309 The British and Americans acquiesced to Khomeini's 00:23:20.309 --> 00:23:24.470 revolution in 1979. One puppet replaced another. 00:23:24.930 --> 00:23:27.269 The Muslim Brotherhood's ideology became the 00:23:27.269 --> 00:23:30.269 scaffold for Khomeini's theocratic state, its 00:23:30.269 --> 00:23:33.190 belief system, and a backward system of constant 00:23:33.190 --> 00:23:36.009 war between Israel and the Arab states. and Iran 00:23:36.009 --> 00:23:39.109 has been profitable for the city of London each 00:23:39.109 --> 00:23:41.829 time it has happened. The city of London sets 00:23:41.829 --> 00:23:45.049 global oil prices. It ensures virtually all oil 00:23:45.049 --> 00:23:47.690 shipments. It banks the sovereign wealth of its 00:23:47.690 --> 00:23:50.390 former Middle East colonies. And as we've documented 00:23:50.390 --> 00:23:53.930 extensively, it functions as the premier money 00:23:53.930 --> 00:23:56.509 laundromat for the drug, weapons, and trafficking 00:23:56.509 --> 00:24:00.329 mafias that thrive on regional chaos. That is 00:24:00.329 --> 00:24:03.779 the system. The Moas are not an independent power. 00:24:03.880 --> 00:24:06.759 They are the current franchise holders of a British 00:24:06.759 --> 00:24:09.480 financial operation that has controlled Iran 00:24:09.480 --> 00:24:13.599 for 118 years. And the wars between Israel and 00:24:13.599 --> 00:24:16.539 the Arab states, between Sunni and Shia, between 00:24:16.539 --> 00:24:19.380 all the parties in the Middle East, these are 00:24:19.380 --> 00:24:21.839 managed conflicts designed to keep the region 00:24:21.839 --> 00:24:24.799 unstable so the financial architecture stays 00:24:24.799 --> 00:24:28.160 in place. So here's the question no one in the 00:24:28.160 --> 00:24:31.720 media is asking. Why now? Not just because of 00:24:31.720 --> 00:24:33.819 the nuclear program, not just because of the 00:24:33.819 --> 00:24:36.160 missiles. The real answer is that Donald Trump 00:24:36.160 --> 00:24:39.519 has spent the last year systematically dismantling 00:24:39.519 --> 00:24:41.740 the British financial architecture in the Middle 00:24:41.740 --> 00:24:44.359 East. And the mullahs were the last obstacle. 00:24:44.940 --> 00:24:48.140 Look at what he's already done. Since Trump assumed 00:24:48.140 --> 00:24:50.799 office for the second time, he secured over $2 00:24:50.799 --> 00:24:54.160 trillion in Gulf sovereign wealth funded investments. 00:24:54.660 --> 00:24:58.130 Money that used to sit in city -run banks. It's 00:24:58.130 --> 00:25:01.490 now committed to American manufacturing, energy, 00:25:01.769 --> 00:25:04.549 and AI infrastructure. He organized the Arab 00:25:04.549 --> 00:25:07.470 world and Israel into his Board of Peace, ending 00:25:07.470 --> 00:25:09.690 the carnage in Gaza and beginning to rebuild 00:25:09.690 --> 00:25:12.769 it. The president of Kazakhstan captured it perfectly 00:25:12.769 --> 00:25:15.609 when he called Trump's strategy, peace through 00:25:15.609 --> 00:25:18.549 construction. Peace, in other words, through 00:25:18.549 --> 00:25:21.950 economic development. The Board of Peace is widely 00:25:21.950 --> 00:25:26.730 expected to respond directly to new realities. 00:25:27.069 --> 00:25:31.309 by reinforcing existing multilateral efforts. 00:25:32.170 --> 00:25:36.369 The world has never seen a move like this. It 00:25:36.369 --> 00:25:40.650 is absolutely unprecedented because in essence, 00:25:41.369 --> 00:25:45.529 peace through construction is a very innovative 00:25:45.529 --> 00:25:49.630 concept or project. Trump designated the Muslim 00:25:49.630 --> 00:25:52.390 Brotherhood as a terrorist organization, cutting 00:25:52.390 --> 00:25:54.190 off the infrastructure the British have used 00:25:54.190 --> 00:25:56.930 to manipulate the region. for nearly a century. 00:25:57.309 --> 00:26:00.190 He brought Egypt's al -Sisi, the man who actually 00:26:00.190 --> 00:26:02.930 defeated the Brotherhood, to the table as a central 00:26:02.930 --> 00:26:05.430 partner. He's working with Turkey and Qatar, 00:26:05.910 --> 00:26:08.230 countries that Netanyahu doesn't want involved, 00:26:08.470 --> 00:26:11.609 because this isn't Netanyahu's plan, it's Trump's 00:26:11.609 --> 00:26:14.490 plan. And think about what Scott Besson, our 00:26:14.490 --> 00:26:16.970 treasury secretary, said earlier in January, 00:26:17.349 --> 00:26:20.589 that 50 % of his job involves national security. 00:26:21.029 --> 00:26:24.269 That's because the real war isn't kinetic, it's 00:26:24.269 --> 00:26:27.269 financial. It's about breaking the city of London's 00:26:27.269 --> 00:26:29.890 control over the flow of money in the Middle 00:26:29.890 --> 00:26:32.950 East. The only thing standing in the way of this 00:26:32.950 --> 00:26:36.329 entire new architecture was the Iranian regime, 00:26:37.009 --> 00:26:39.630 still pursuing a nuclear weapon, still pledging 00:26:39.630 --> 00:26:42.230 to destroy both Israel and the United States, 00:26:42.690 --> 00:26:45.089 still developing the ballistic missile capability 00:26:45.089 --> 00:26:48.089 to accomplish that, and still funding proxies 00:26:48.089 --> 00:26:51.750 from Lebanon to Yemen to make war. You cannot 00:26:51.750 --> 00:26:54.170 build a border piece while the molars are arming 00:26:54.170 --> 00:26:58.109 for war. You cannot redirect $2 trillion in Gulf 00:26:58.109 --> 00:27:00.670 investment while Iran threatens to close the 00:27:00.670 --> 00:27:04.170 Strait of Hormuz. You cannot rebuild Gaza while 00:27:04.170 --> 00:27:07.390 Iranian proxies are rearming. That's why this 00:27:07.390 --> 00:27:10.630 happened, not because Trump is a warmonger, because 00:27:10.630 --> 00:27:12.970 the mullahs were the last piece on the British 00:27:12.970 --> 00:27:16.150 chessboard and they refused to leave it voluntarily. 00:27:16.609 --> 00:27:20.029 They rejected every deal. And as Trump put it 00:27:20.029 --> 00:27:25.490 in his address this morning, to make a deal. 00:27:25.930 --> 00:27:29.470 We tried. They wanted to do it. They didn't want 00:27:29.470 --> 00:27:32.150 to do it. Again, they wanted to do it. They didn't 00:27:32.150 --> 00:27:34.230 want to do it. They didn't know what was happening. 00:27:34.509 --> 00:27:38.390 They just wanted to practice evil. But Iran refused, 00:27:38.410 --> 00:27:42.930 just as it has for decades and decades. They 00:27:42.930 --> 00:27:45.789 rejected every opportunity to renounce their 00:27:45.789 --> 00:27:49.670 nuclear ambitions. And we can't take it anymore. 00:27:50.509 --> 00:27:53.089 So here's the bottom line. We are at the earliest 00:27:53.089 --> 00:27:55.569 stages of this conflict and the situation is 00:27:55.569 --> 00:27:59.369 rapidly evolving. Iran has already launched retaliatory 00:27:59.369 --> 00:28:02.430 strikes against the Gulf, targeting U .S. assets 00:28:02.430 --> 00:28:06.710 in Qatar, Bahrain, Kuwait, and the UAE. This 00:28:06.710 --> 00:28:09.690 is serious and it's dangerous. But I will tell 00:28:09.690 --> 00:28:12.970 you what I know about watching 50 years of these 00:28:12.970 --> 00:28:17.269 wars. This is not Iraq. Trump is not dismantling 00:28:17.269 --> 00:28:20.109 the state to install new puppets. He is removing 00:28:20.109 --> 00:28:23.029 the final obstacle to a peace architecture he 00:28:23.029 --> 00:28:26.329 has been building for over a year. And Vice President 00:28:26.329 --> 00:28:29.430 Vance, a Marine veteran and the most vocal opponent 00:28:29.430 --> 00:28:32.309 of the forever wars in the administration, has 00:28:32.309 --> 00:28:35.109 told us there is no chance this becomes one. 00:28:35.829 --> 00:28:37.730 The Democrats and their friends in London will 00:28:37.730 --> 00:28:39.970 try to play this in the midterms, thus scream 00:28:39.970 --> 00:28:43.410 regime change. They'll invoke Iraq. They'll call 00:28:43.410 --> 00:28:46.779 Trump a madman. and they will never, ever tell 00:28:46.779 --> 00:28:49.559 you about the 118 years of British financial 00:28:49.559 --> 00:28:53.339 control over Iran that made this moment inevitable. 00:29:00.000 --> 00:29:02.819 I know that was a lot of detail, but the inner 00:29:02.819 --> 00:29:05.240 workings of the Middle East and the British Empire 00:29:05.240 --> 00:29:07.920 that has been the leader for a one -world government, 00:29:08.119 --> 00:29:11.880 which they control, must be understood, especially 00:29:11.880 --> 00:29:13.960 in light of what the innocent people of Iran 00:29:13.960 --> 00:29:17.440 have been suffering for the past 47 years and 00:29:17.440 --> 00:29:20.599 how Iran clearly imposes a threat to the world. 00:29:21.019 --> 00:29:25.099 After years of serious humanitarian violations, 00:29:25.579 --> 00:29:28.759 sparked by the economic collapse and the devaluation 00:29:28.759 --> 00:29:31.619 of the Iranian Rial, their currency on December 00:29:31.619 --> 00:29:35.799 20th, 2025, the Iranian citizens began nationwide 00:29:35.799 --> 00:29:39.240 protests. In response, the Iranian government 00:29:39.240 --> 00:29:42.420 engaged in a severe crackdown. In what has been 00:29:42.420 --> 00:29:45.319 called the Islamic Republic's Iranian Massacre, 00:29:45.759 --> 00:29:49.180 over 43 ,000 Iran residents have been killed. 00:29:49.519 --> 00:29:54.900 Over 1 ,000 hanged, over 10 ,000 blinded, over 00:29:54.900 --> 00:29:59.160 350 ,000 injured. Additionally, I recently learned, 00:29:59.500 --> 00:30:01.980 according to reports from human rights organizations, 00:30:02.519 --> 00:30:04.579 medical professionals, and news outlets covering 00:30:04.579 --> 00:30:08.640 the protests, Iranian security forces went into 00:30:08.640 --> 00:30:12.319 hospitals to arrest, abduct, and in some cases 00:30:12.319 --> 00:30:17.380 kill wounded protesters. Iran has not only repeatedly 00:30:17.380 --> 00:30:20.240 proven itself for the past nearly 50 years to 00:30:20.240 --> 00:30:22.539 be a serious threat to its own citizens, but 00:30:22.539 --> 00:30:25.440 has openly promoted death to Israel and death 00:30:25.440 --> 00:30:28.599 to America while it has insisted on its right 00:30:28.599 --> 00:30:31.900 to produce nuclear weapons. Multiple nations 00:30:31.900 --> 00:30:34.839 and international bodies consider Iran a significant 00:30:34.839 --> 00:30:37.859 terrorist threat, primarily due to its support 00:30:37.859 --> 00:30:41.299 of proxy militias across the Middle East, intelligence 00:30:41.299 --> 00:30:45.049 operations targeting dissidents in Europe, direct 00:30:45.049 --> 00:30:48.990 threats to maritime security. This should give 00:30:48.990 --> 00:30:51.289 you a better understanding why President Trump 00:30:51.289 --> 00:30:54.210 launched Operation Fury in February of this year 00:30:54.210 --> 00:30:57.049 which is operating at the same time as Israel's 00:30:57.049 --> 00:31:00.170 Operation Roaring Lion. My regular listeners 00:31:00.170 --> 00:31:02.849 should perk up hearing that since Prophet Amanda 00:31:02.849 --> 00:31:05.869 Grace expressed the first three months of 2026 00:31:05.869 --> 00:31:08.730 would be characterized as January the month of 00:31:08.730 --> 00:31:11.809 justice, February the month that's ferocious, 00:31:11.930 --> 00:31:16.099 and March the roaring month. President Trump's 00:31:16.099 --> 00:31:18.380 objectives for Operation Fury have similarities 00:31:18.380 --> 00:31:20.480 to Prime Minister Netanyahu's objectives for 00:31:20.480 --> 00:31:23.480 Operation Roaring Lion. President Trump's main 00:31:23.480 --> 00:31:26.279 concerns are to prevent Iran from having nuclear 00:31:26.279 --> 00:31:29.200 and ballistic missile capabilities, to cripple 00:31:29.200 --> 00:31:33.500 Iran's navy, and to end support for Iran's proxies. 00:31:33.880 --> 00:31:36.319 Now to prevent Iran from having nuclear and ballistic 00:31:36.319 --> 00:31:39.240 missile capabilities is to eliminate Iran's announced 00:31:39.240 --> 00:31:41.799 harm throughout the world, especially in the 00:31:41.799 --> 00:31:45.319 Middle East. To cripple Iran's navy is to prevent 00:31:45.319 --> 00:31:48.019 Iran from threatening maritime security in that 00:31:48.019 --> 00:31:51.779 region. And ending support for Iran's proxies 00:31:51.779 --> 00:31:54.319 means to eliminate the current regime that supports 00:31:54.319 --> 00:31:57.240 the radical groups from being a threat to humanity 00:31:57.240 --> 00:32:02.059 worldwide, which in turn secures peace. It is 00:32:02.059 --> 00:32:05.240 understood by eliminating the current regime 00:32:05.240 --> 00:32:07.920 the Iranian people can be liberated, which is 00:32:07.920 --> 00:32:11.299 an honorable humanitarian effort. It is the moral 00:32:11.299 --> 00:32:14.000 obligation for everyone to get involved to help 00:32:14.000 --> 00:32:18.259 remove human suffering. President Trump described 00:32:18.259 --> 00:32:21.640 these operation actions as major combat operations 00:32:21.640 --> 00:32:25.319 necessary to eliminate imminent threats to the 00:32:25.319 --> 00:32:28.539 United States. Prime Minister Netanyahu shares 00:32:28.539 --> 00:32:31.519 these goals and their extensions and includes 00:32:31.519 --> 00:32:35.460 the right to defend Israel. The decades -long 00:32:35.460 --> 00:32:38.740 system especially since World War II of the British 00:32:38.740 --> 00:32:41.680 Empire running world control with the United 00:32:41.680 --> 00:32:45.160 States operating as its military power under 00:32:45.160 --> 00:32:48.519 President Trump is coming to an end. President 00:32:48.519 --> 00:32:51.240 Trump seeks nations to be their own sovereign 00:32:51.240 --> 00:32:54.289 states. and for each to do all it can in its 00:32:54.289 --> 00:32:57.950 own defense and to be as independent as possible 00:32:57.950 --> 00:33:00.710 with their own resources and manufactured goods. 00:33:01.309 --> 00:33:03.970 This is why President Trump has been so critical 00:33:03.970 --> 00:33:06.789 of NATO, where nations were not paying their 00:33:06.789 --> 00:33:09.670 way and instead relying on the abilities of the 00:33:09.670 --> 00:33:13.009 United States, draining this nation in many ways. 00:33:13.450 --> 00:33:17.109 This past week, the Iranian regime launched missile 00:33:17.109 --> 00:33:19.470 attacks against their neighbors, demonstrating 00:33:19.470 --> 00:33:21.809 they have the capabilities of intermediate -range 00:33:21.809 --> 00:33:25.849 strikes sufficient to hit European targets, while 00:33:25.849 --> 00:33:28.829 threatening greater world impact by closing the 00:33:28.829 --> 00:33:32.289 Strait of Hormuz. President Trump has continued 00:33:32.289 --> 00:33:34.289 to offer help to the nations that are threatened 00:33:34.289 --> 00:33:37.490 by Iran, but made clear that those nations need 00:33:37.490 --> 00:33:40.569 to get involved. After some initial resistance, 00:33:40.930 --> 00:33:43.869 nations came forward and include the Gulf states 00:33:43.869 --> 00:33:47.509 of Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and the United Arab Emirates, 00:33:47.769 --> 00:33:50.690 who have been targets of drone attacks by Iran. 00:33:51.410 --> 00:33:54.309 Over the weekend, much transpired. An announcement 00:33:54.309 --> 00:33:56.349 from the United States Department of State on 00:33:56.349 --> 00:33:59.930 March 22nd again advised American citizens around 00:33:59.930 --> 00:34:03.890 the world to exercise increased caution. Americans 00:34:03.890 --> 00:34:06.190 abroad should follow the guidance in security 00:34:06.190 --> 00:34:08.809 alerts issued by the nearest U .S. embassy or 00:34:08.809 --> 00:34:11.849 consulate. The State Department said, also noting 00:34:11.849 --> 00:34:14.309 that citizens in the Middle East should pay particular 00:34:14.309 --> 00:34:16.829 attention because U .S. diplomatic buildings 00:34:16.829 --> 00:34:20.289 have been targeted, even outside the Middle East, 00:34:20.769 --> 00:34:23.570 stating periodic airspace closures may cause 00:34:23.570 --> 00:34:28.269 travel disruptions. It also warned groups that 00:34:28.269 --> 00:34:31.590 back the Iranian regime may target other United 00:34:31.590 --> 00:34:35.489 States interests overseas or locations associated 00:34:35.489 --> 00:34:38.949 with the United States or Americans around the 00:34:38.949 --> 00:34:43.170 world. Also over the weekend, headlines revealed 00:34:43.170 --> 00:34:46.769 Iran threatened to entirely shut down the entire 00:34:46.769 --> 00:34:49.489 Strait of Hormuz and vowed that any companies 00:34:49.489 --> 00:34:52.869 with US shares will be completely destroyed if 00:34:52.869 --> 00:34:55.150 President Trump follows through with his threats 00:34:55.150 --> 00:35:00.809 to hit Iranian energy facilities. Israeli weekend 00:35:00.809 --> 00:35:03.369 headlines reported devastating mass casualties 00:35:03.369 --> 00:35:06.530 from Iranian ballistic missiles Hitting the cities 00:35:06.530 --> 00:35:09.210 of, and I'm sure I won't pronounce these city 00:35:09.210 --> 00:35:12.349 names correctly, however, the cities of Daimona 00:35:12.349 --> 00:35:16.349 and Arad, leaving nearly 200 Israelis wounded, 00:35:16.590 --> 00:35:19.250 including a five -year -old girl and a ten -year 00:35:19.250 --> 00:35:23.349 -old boy, now in serious condition. IDF Chief 00:35:23.349 --> 00:35:26.469 of Staff Lieutenant General Ival Zamir said the 00:35:26.469 --> 00:35:29.710 campaign against Iran has reached its midpoint, 00:35:29.849 --> 00:35:33.929 indicating further escalation is expected. Defense 00:35:33.929 --> 00:35:36.849 Minister Israel Katz stated that the strikes 00:35:36.849 --> 00:35:40.250 against Iran would intensify in the coming days, 00:35:40.469 --> 00:35:43.369 targeting the regime's military and strategic 00:35:43.369 --> 00:35:47.210 infrastructure. Meanwhile, Hezbollah continues 00:35:47.210 --> 00:35:50.469 near daily rocket and drone attacks on northern 00:35:50.469 --> 00:35:53.269 communities, damaging homes and more in residential 00:35:53.269 --> 00:35:57.309 communities. As of Monday the 23rd, President 00:35:57.309 --> 00:36:00.679 Trump announced postponement of his ultimatum 00:36:00.679 --> 00:36:04.820 to bomb Iran energy sites citing ongoing productive 00:36:04.820 --> 00:36:07.900 talks with Islamic Republic parliament speaker 00:36:07.900 --> 00:36:11.019 indicating a deal could happen in the next five 00:36:11.019 --> 00:36:15.000 days. Iranian news agencies however denies such 00:36:15.000 --> 00:36:18.159 talks and stated Trump backed down amid their 00:36:18.159 --> 00:36:21.119 threats. Concerning all of this there has been 00:36:21.119 --> 00:36:25.360 no response from Prime Minister Netanyahu. I 00:36:25.360 --> 00:36:27.780 am suspicious about the claims for any talks 00:36:27.780 --> 00:36:30.599 to have occurred. First, it makes no sense for 00:36:30.599 --> 00:36:32.760 President Trump to negotiate with terrorists, 00:36:33.239 --> 00:36:37.539 to negotiate with the IRCG leaders. Second, Israel 00:36:37.539 --> 00:36:39.840 has responded with concern that Trump's agreements 00:36:39.840 --> 00:36:43.840 with the IRCG won't serve them well. And third, 00:36:44.179 --> 00:36:46.539 it certainly does not serve the Iranian people 00:36:46.539 --> 00:36:51.059 because they want to replace the IRCG. I suspect 00:36:51.059 --> 00:36:53.940 these posts by the United States and the IRCG 00:36:53.940 --> 00:36:57.599 are tactics and strategies within the fog of 00:36:57.599 --> 00:37:01.000 war. Even so, in response, Israeli headlines 00:37:01.000 --> 00:37:04.179 read, For the third time in a year, the president 00:37:04.179 --> 00:37:06.679 wants to cut a deal that ends fighting before 00:37:06.679 --> 00:37:10.239 Israel is ready. Now Netanyahu has to make sure 00:37:10.239 --> 00:37:14.329 Hezbollah doesn't get off the hook as well. response 00:37:14.329 --> 00:37:17.090 to President Trump Iranian citizens have posted 00:37:17.090 --> 00:37:21.929 on truth social and X the hashtag King Reza Pahlavi 00:37:21.929 --> 00:37:25.849 was trending on Monday remember he is the eldest 00:37:25.849 --> 00:37:29.369 son of Iran's last Shah and is currently the 00:37:29.369 --> 00:37:32.710 crown prince in exile and a leading figure in 00:37:32.710 --> 00:37:35.710 the Iranian opposition after leaving Iran at 00:37:35.710 --> 00:37:39.730 age 17 in 1978 he became a voice for a democratic 00:37:39.730 --> 00:37:43.650 secular state and a reunion leader for the opposing 00:37:43.650 --> 00:37:48.090 the current regime. On X, Judy Burnabum posted 00:37:48.090 --> 00:37:51.050 a response to real Donald Trump stating, quote, 00:37:51.289 --> 00:37:53.489 we have chosen our leader and his name is Reza 00:37:53.489 --> 00:37:56.630 Pahlavi. No negotiations with elements of the 00:37:56.630 --> 00:37:59.130 Islamic Republic whose hands are stained with 00:37:59.130 --> 00:38:02.570 the blood of the people are acceptable. Another 00:38:02.570 --> 00:38:06.590 account under the name Tanaz P1 wrote, quote, 00:38:07.030 --> 00:38:10.210 Trump might be bluffing or playing 40 chess with 00:38:10.210 --> 00:38:13.659 Galibov. We don't know yet. But facts don't change. 00:38:14.239 --> 00:38:16.940 Golubov is a terrorist who must be eliminated 00:38:16.940 --> 00:38:20.679 with the entire regime. Iranians despise him 00:38:20.679 --> 00:38:23.579 and will never accept this criminal as a leader. 00:38:24.219 --> 00:38:27.400 The only person worth talking to is Crown Prince 00:38:27.400 --> 00:38:30.820 Reza Pahlavi, the true leader millions chanted 00:38:30.820 --> 00:38:35.650 for and died for in the streets." Still another 00:38:35.650 --> 00:38:38.769 under the name Kappa wrote, citing Fox News and 00:38:38.769 --> 00:38:41.829 real Donald Trump, quote, the one you are negotiating 00:38:41.829 --> 00:38:44.570 with and believed to be our leader is actually 00:38:44.570 --> 00:38:48.969 not. We, the great nation of Persians, only trust 00:38:48.969 --> 00:38:52.090 and believe in Crown Prince Reza Pahlavi during 00:38:52.090 --> 00:38:54.969 this transition period. So don't think we are 00:38:54.969 --> 00:38:57.429 Venezuela and that you can choose your own pawn. 00:38:57.909 --> 00:39:00.949 Our only desired option is the Crown Prince himself. 00:39:01.320 --> 00:39:03.860 We, the great nation of Persians, are not Muslim 00:39:03.860 --> 00:39:06.840 and will not be, so do not appoint a pawn for 00:39:06.840 --> 00:39:10.139 us. We know that the Turks and the Arabs are 00:39:10.139 --> 00:39:12.860 afraid of a true Persian government because a 00:39:12.860 --> 00:39:16.820 weak Islamic Iran is their source of income." 00:39:16.820 --> 00:39:20.780 As we heard, President Trump say he wants the 00:39:20.780 --> 00:39:23.400 people to select their own new government regime, 00:39:23.519 --> 00:39:26.280 so we'll just have to wait and see how this plays 00:39:26.280 --> 00:39:29.519 out. Now let me take a few minutes to share what 00:39:29.519 --> 00:39:31.719 the modern -day trusted prophets have had to 00:39:31.719 --> 00:39:35.119 say about all of this. Robin D Bullock put together 00:39:35.119 --> 00:39:37.679 a collage of several of his prophetic words from 00:39:37.679 --> 00:39:41.420 as early as October 2019 to as recent as September 00:39:41.420 --> 00:39:45.940 30th 2025 specific to Iran where God actually 00:39:45.940 --> 00:39:49.059 issued warnings to the Ayatollah calling him 00:39:49.059 --> 00:39:52.559 the bearded one and assured the people of Iran 00:39:52.559 --> 00:39:55.920 he has heard their cries and they will be liberated. 00:39:56.440 --> 00:40:00.139 The prophecies also gave stern warning to Hezbollah 00:40:00.139 --> 00:40:02.400 not to get involved or they would find themselves 00:40:02.400 --> 00:40:05.900 under God's hand. He also referenced how very 00:40:05.900 --> 00:40:09.079 significant it is this conflict began very near 00:40:09.079 --> 00:40:12.340 Purim, which was early March, stating Esther 00:40:12.340 --> 00:40:15.500 sowed the seeds for the Israeli people to defend 00:40:15.500 --> 00:40:18.559 themselves. And Robin Bullock prophesied about 00:40:18.559 --> 00:40:21.760 a time when Persia and the people of Iran and 00:40:21.760 --> 00:40:24.960 Israel will be friends. You'll find a link in 00:40:24.960 --> 00:40:28.460 the show notes. Amanda Grace's word from 2016 00:40:28.460 --> 00:40:32.599 -2026 is also applicable. In it, God spoke of 00:40:32.599 --> 00:40:36.579 yoking a pair of oxen to topple regimes the Lord 00:40:36.579 --> 00:40:39.679 has judged, naming both Israel and the United 00:40:39.679 --> 00:40:43.619 States to work the fields of corruption had become 00:40:43.619 --> 00:40:47.019 ripe for harvest. She also had a podcast specific 00:40:47.019 --> 00:40:49.980 to God's judgment against Iran that you'll want 00:40:49.980 --> 00:40:52.219 to hear. The links to both of these are in the 00:40:52.219 --> 00:40:56.000 show notes. Hank Kuhneman also had some very 00:40:56.000 --> 00:40:58.480 reassuring prophecies you should know about which 00:40:58.480 --> 00:41:01.619 he shared as a guest on Elijah Streams. I recommend 00:41:01.619 --> 00:41:03.719 you listen to them and allow them to minister 00:41:03.719 --> 00:41:07.579 to your heart and your mind as an anchor to help 00:41:07.579 --> 00:41:10.300 you stay strong in your faith in the days ahead. 00:41:10.889 --> 00:41:13.269 God has warned through Julie Green there would 00:41:13.269 --> 00:41:15.610 be a time of darkness when we will likely have 00:41:15.610 --> 00:41:18.949 no power or communications, and that when this 00:41:18.949 --> 00:41:21.909 happens we are to know God is at work in our 00:41:21.909 --> 00:41:24.750 behalf. That such a time when we would hear from 00:41:24.750 --> 00:41:26.929 the emergency broadcast service to remain in 00:41:26.929 --> 00:41:29.809 our homes will actually be for our own good, 00:41:30.170 --> 00:41:32.710 much as God's people in Goshen were sequestered 00:41:32.710 --> 00:41:35.030 away from the plagues of judgment God brought 00:41:35.030 --> 00:41:38.559 on Pharaoh in the book of Exodus. On Monday, 00:41:38.639 --> 00:41:42.019 March 26, the word Julie postage, which she received 00:41:42.019 --> 00:41:44.619 on March 20th, clearly stated the following, 00:41:45.000 --> 00:41:47.880 which is only part of the complete word. God 00:41:47.880 --> 00:41:51.579 said, my children, you have entered a time of 00:41:51.579 --> 00:41:54.039 great change, a time where it will bring the 00:41:54.039 --> 00:41:57.780 world from darkness to my glorious light, a time 00:41:57.780 --> 00:42:00.639 where things will greatly be intensified because 00:42:00.639 --> 00:42:03.559 of the stress of nations and governments that 00:42:03.559 --> 00:42:06.400 are being exposed and are being ripped apart. 00:42:06.559 --> 00:42:09.360 a time where more leaders will be removed and 00:42:09.360 --> 00:42:12.820 some will die, a time of great exposure of the 00:42:12.820 --> 00:42:15.760 globalist agenda and who has all been working 00:42:15.760 --> 00:42:19.420 with them against you, a time of more unusual 00:42:19.420 --> 00:42:22.860 things to take place worldwide, a time of unprecedented 00:42:22.860 --> 00:42:25.860 weather, of unprecedented political changes, 00:42:26.440 --> 00:42:28.860 a time when the government in this nation will 00:42:28.860 --> 00:42:32.179 be shut down for the right reason, to remove 00:42:32.179 --> 00:42:36.429 all who do not belong. You have entered The time 00:42:36.429 --> 00:42:38.690 where the exposure will become more frequent 00:42:38.690 --> 00:42:42.369 and will cause more damage to your enemies. A 00:42:42.369 --> 00:42:44.789 time where the old guard that has been in your 00:42:44.789 --> 00:42:47.889 government to be forcibly removed and an entire 00:42:47.889 --> 00:42:51.610 new government will be formed. This time of the 00:42:51.610 --> 00:42:54.730 political reset and martial law will be their 00:42:54.730 --> 00:42:57.369 uprisings. There will be more attacks against 00:42:57.369 --> 00:43:00.190 this nation from within. and China will try to 00:43:00.190 --> 00:43:02.349 do something against this nation to stop the 00:43:02.349 --> 00:43:04.869 establishment from being destroyed, but China 00:43:04.869 --> 00:43:08.869 will fail in their efforts. The big lie of 2020 00:43:08.869 --> 00:43:12.869 with the election, COVID, and the supposed insurrection 00:43:12.869 --> 00:43:15.829 of January 6, there's nothing that will stay 00:43:15.829 --> 00:43:18.409 hidden. Everything will be brought out into the 00:43:18.409 --> 00:43:22.329 open. When this election is taken down, my children 00:43:22.329 --> 00:43:25.789 do not be afraid of the military movement. Do 00:43:25.789 --> 00:43:29.289 not be afraid of martial law. Do not be afraid 00:43:29.289 --> 00:43:32.829 of the lock -in. Do not be afraid of what happens 00:43:32.829 --> 00:43:35.929 in your capital to save your nation from death. 00:43:36.369 --> 00:43:38.489 There is nothing to fear as I am moving your 00:43:38.489 --> 00:43:41.610 enemies from your government. The time of great 00:43:41.610 --> 00:43:45.349 purge is here. The political reset of your governments, 00:43:45.670 --> 00:43:48.250 of your economy, the reset and restructuring 00:43:48.250 --> 00:43:51.570 of the body of Christ, all is moving faster now 00:43:51.570 --> 00:43:54.429 and everything will soon change for your good, 00:43:55.050 --> 00:43:59.099 says the Lord of Hosts. Again this is only part 00:43:59.099 --> 00:44:01.539 of the overall word so use the link in the show 00:44:01.539 --> 00:44:06.039 notes to hear it all. In that word two times 00:44:06.039 --> 00:44:11.039 God said you have entered and he also said the 00:44:11.039 --> 00:44:15.019 time of the great purge is here. So we need to 00:44:15.019 --> 00:44:17.539 do everything possible to go through this time 00:44:17.539 --> 00:44:20.599 of unprecedented intervention from God, focus 00:44:20.599 --> 00:44:23.760 on what God has promised, fully applying our 00:44:23.760 --> 00:44:27.500 faith and refusing to allow fear to impact us 00:44:27.369 --> 00:44:31.050 or our loved ones. It's a spiritual battle. We 00:44:31.050 --> 00:44:33.670 can only fight it with our spiritual efforts. 00:44:34.070 --> 00:44:36.690 Put on the full armor of God and be in great 00:44:36.690 --> 00:44:39.750 prayer, decreeing and declaring with the authority 00:44:39.750 --> 00:44:43.079 and the power of Jesus Christ. I know today's 00:44:43.079 --> 00:44:45.500 podcast is longer than most, but I felt it very 00:44:45.500 --> 00:44:48.639 important to give you as much truth and history 00:44:48.639 --> 00:44:51.920 and context as possible so you have the facts, 00:44:52.260 --> 00:44:54.719 so you have the essential knowledge to allow 00:44:54.719 --> 00:44:57.119 you to confidently endure whatever is ahead, 00:44:57.539 --> 00:44:59.860 knowing things will get worse before they get 00:44:59.860 --> 00:45:04.059 better. That's God's words. But, as God has also 00:45:04.059 --> 00:45:08.039 said, they will get better. God has promised. 00:45:08.800 --> 00:45:11.699 Next week, brings us to April 1st already, my 00:45:11.699 --> 00:45:14.420 goodness, but I have left that week open so that 00:45:14.420 --> 00:45:17.059 I'm able to discuss whatever is pressing at the 00:45:17.059 --> 00:45:19.619 time. But the following week, I'm excited to 00:45:19.619 --> 00:45:22.440 bring a well -respected thought leader as a first 00:45:22.440 --> 00:45:25.400 -time guest on Faith to Live By. Of course, we'll 00:45:25.400 --> 00:45:27.699 still address immediate concerns, but we'll be 00:45:27.699 --> 00:45:29.840 able to discuss topics that are being crowded 00:45:29.840 --> 00:45:33.179 out by headline news that remain of tremendous 00:45:33.179 --> 00:45:36.260 importance and need to also be addressed. Now 00:45:36.260 --> 00:45:38.619 I ask you to please listen to my closing announcements 00:45:38.619 --> 00:45:40.940 and for you to take advantage of the many goods 00:45:40.940 --> 00:45:43.679 and services I bring you in an effort to at least 00:45:43.679 --> 00:45:47.179 cover the cost of this podcast. If you like what 00:45:47.179 --> 00:45:49.380 you hear from me with this podcast, I highly 00:45:49.380 --> 00:45:52.079 recommend my book series, my award -winning blog, 00:45:52.269 --> 00:45:55.190 And consider signing up for my certificate course 00:45:55.190 --> 00:45:57.789 in apologetics.
