The Gathering Storm (Part 3 of 4) -By Joe Dauda

In 1973, Israel had a war with Egypt popularly known as the 1973 Arab-Israeli War. The doctrine of Arab countries is to fight together and this is why Israel’s war with Egypt is often referred to as the Arab-Israeli War. When Israel is at war with an Arab country, their brothers send combat troops, or logistical support, or cash, or engage/distract Israel by opening a new front in the war from their own homeland.

However, in 1973, the Arab nations decided to use economic sanctions to punish the countries that supported Israel — especially the United States — which was Israel’s biggest supporter and most powerful and most important ally.

 Food for Thought

The President of the United States during the 1973 Arab-Israeli war was a Republican politician named Richard Nixon. When Israel’s female Prime Minister at the time — Golda Meir — desperately asked America for military support while being simultaneously attacked by several Arab armies, the secret enemies of Israel with influence over Nixon did everything humanly possible to stop him from responding, in spite of the fact that Russia was massively arming and even resupplying Egypt and the other Arab countries. And George H. W. Bush (Bush 41) was part of these people. The US State Department, which is housed with American/Israel haters, also tried to discourage Nixon from helping Israel. (I used to personally like President George W. Bush (Bush 43) until I realized who he really was. Knowledge is light, not just power)

Under pressure that Israel will be defeated and, of course, annihilated, Prime Minister Golda Meir began to seriously think about using Israel’s nuclear weapons to change the course of the war. This would have unleashed World War 3 but Israel had its back against the wall and the clock was ticking. Fortunately, at the 11th hour, Richard Nixon asserted his presidential authority and sent Israel the required weapons. This almost resulted in nuclear war between Russia and the United States. Things went so bad the US deployed 3 of its aircraft carriers to the Mediterranean Sea. Russia was also armed to the teeth around the same waters and that period saw the largest naval confrontation between the United States Navy and the Soviet Navy throughout the Cold War. But Google Richard Nixon today and see how the powers that be punished him for daring to help Israel. They set him up, got him impeached in August 1974, and made sure his name and legacy will ever be synonymous with executive corruption. Ever heard of Watergate? The scandal broke during the Nixon administration and there is ample evidence that it was all a set up, drawing from some funny break-in that happened in 1972. The powers that be hate Israel and every day Israel survives is a miracle. Never forget that.

So in 1973, the Arab nations (blessed with oil reserves) targeted the economy of the United States by jointly agreeing not to sell oil to the US. This was part of the strategy to force Nixon out of office because Americans don’t like it when oil prices hit the roof. Interestingly, this tactics nearly succeeded in changing the geopolitics of the Middle East and America’s foreign policy because the price of oil rose from about $3 when the embargo began in October 1973, to almost $12 in January 1974. That’s an increase of almost 300% in less than four months! Just for the records, the 1973 war, also known as the Yom Kippur war, was launched against Israel on the Day of Atonement, which is the holiest Sabbath day in the Jewish religious calendar. Egypt was trying to regain its honour after being seriously walloped by Israel during the 1967 Six-day war.

Israel eventually prevailed over Egypt in the Yom Kippur war and (in my humble opinion) forced Egypt’s President Gamal Abdel Nasser into signing a Peace Treaty with Israel. That peace Israel has with Egypt is one of the most important cornerstones of its national security because having to worry about fighting Egypt will put Israel under tremendous pressure. Egypt is a large country and its army is not a pushover, even for Israel. So this Peace Treaty gives Israel a whole lot less to worry about. Good for the blood pressure of Israeli leaders and good for the military budget.

It is pertinent to note that one of the things Israel desperately desires is peace with its Arab neighbors. Israel is far less than 10 million and is surrounded by over 200 million Arabs. Except these Arabs maintain their cool, Israel will never sleep with its eyes closed. Fortunately, Jordan also signed a Peace Treaty with Israel in 1994, meaning the Jordanians cannot go to war with Israel until that treaty is revoked.

While Donald Trump was President, because he understood this dynamics very well, he worked with Benjamin Netanyahu and Israel was able to sign Peace Treaties with four more Arab countries, namely the UAE (aka Dubai), Bahrain, Morocco, and Sudan. There are serious rumours that five other Arab nations (including Saudi Arabia) may sign a Peace Treaty with Israel based on Trump’s efforts. But, in practical terms, with or without a Peace Treaty, there is amity between Israel and Saudi Arabia already and, believe it or not, Israel has the permission of the Saudi Arabian government to use their airspace if they need to, in a possible airstrike against Iran’s nuclear weapons program. For those who may not understand why one Muslim country (Saudi Arabia) will ally with a Jewish country (Israel) to attack another Muslim country (Iran) the reason is this: there are two major streams in Islam — the Shia and the Sunni. Nigeria is predominantly Sunni. Iran is the leader of the Shia Islamic world while, for now, Saudi Arabia is the leader of the Sunni Muslim World. Saudi Arabia is in a precarious position because of its new friendship with Israel. And Turkey is trying to regain its position as protector of the holy sites of Islam by displacing Saudi Arabia. What Turkey wants is what Iran also wants – to displace Saudi Arabia and lead the whole Muslim world. But Turkey is Sunni (same as Saudi Arabia) while Iran is Shia.

Notice the two things that can help Israel survive and thrive: peace with its Arab neighbors and, wait for this, American oil independence. If America has oil independence, it will not need to negotiate with any Arab country over Israel’s security. In fact, every Arab country that attacks Israel will think twice because there will be no way for them to pressure America like they did through the Arab oil embargo of 1973.

Guess what.

President Donald Trump sought to secure peace between Israel and its Arab neighbors and also sought to make America oil-independent.

Guess what again.

Donald Trump was succeeding in both of these areas. Under his presidency, the United States became the world’s largest producer of crude oil, taking over from Saudi Arabia and not needing to go easy with any oil-rich country — Arab or non-Arab. As already mentioned, he also pursued peace between Israel and its Arab neighbors. Remember that Trump — ignoring the US State Department and some of his own advisers — issued a proclamation recognizing Jerusalem as the rightful capital city of Israel. Interestingly, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, and some other important Arab nations said nothing serious about this. The common enemy was Iran and there were rumors that the King of Saudi lobbied Trump to bomb Iran. Nobody wanted to be distracted with the issue of Jerusalem perhaps because the Saudis and their Arab brothers were counting on Trump to completely take out the Iranians and give them some peace of mind.

But guess what Obama attempted to do when he was US President.

The first country Obama visited after he became President in January 2009 was Egypt. I don’t know what type of signal he gave to the terrorist group known as the Muslim Brotherhood. But, shortly after his speech at the University of Cairo, this group, which has been outlawed by the Egyptian government and which is an enemy of the Egyptian military, rose up and, before you could say Jack Robinson, Mohammed Morsi became President of Egypt. Mohammed Morsi is, of course, a member of the Muslim Brotherhood. I have already explained that peace with Egypt is a major cornerstone of Israel’s national security. No Israeli Prime Minister will like to conduct a war with Egypt. It is just too dangerous and just too stressful.

Well guess what.

One of the first things Mohammed Morsi wanted to do as President of Egypt was to tear down the Peace Treaty Egypt signed with Israel in 1973. Why? So that hostilities can resume between Israel and Egypt and expose Israel to possible annihilation by Iran, which has gone on public record to say Israel must be wiped off the map. But don’t forget that Obama is a firm supporter of the Muslim Brotherhood, even though the Muslim Brotherhood is denounced and proscribed by virtually every moderate Arab government.

Why is Obama friends with Israel’s enemies? A coincidence? Officials of the Muslim Brotherhood even visited the White House during Obama’s presidency.

It seems that, just like Israel does not want war with Egypt, the Egyptian military is also not eager to engage Israel in a war perhaps because, in spite of overt Russian support and their superiority in numbers, they have never been able to defeat Israel in a war. In fact, since it’s rebirth in 1948, Israel has never lost a war.

No wonder, knowing what Morsi was about to do, the Egyptian military stepped in and overthrew his government. El Sisi (a retired Army General) is now the President of Egypt.

Is it any surprise that Joe Biden is harsh on Saudi Arabia today? For your information, Iran is in charge of Yemen and Yemen has been attacking Saudi Arabia virtually every day. The media tries its best to ignore this until the attack is too big to be ignored. Why did Joe Biden quickly remove the name of the terrorists in Yemen attacking Saudi Arabia from the list of terrorists America is supposed to sanction?

It is to punish Saudi Arabia for getting closer and closer to Israel.

Why has Joe Biden cancelled the Keystone XL Pipeline Project, which would have connected the US to Canada? Other oil projects are also in jeopardy, leading to the loss of thousands of very lucrative jobs. Now, gasoline prices are rising in America and America is losing its ground as an oil-independent nation. And Biden did this the very first day he became President – January 20, 2021 — in spite of the fact that the North American company which owns the Keystone XL pipeline had spent over $9 billion dollars already. That’s about 5 trillion naira!

Why is Biden doing this? Why was Obama doing what he was doing?

The easy answer is prediction Number 2 in the 8 predictions of the World Economic Forum, treated in Part 1 of this series. For the sake of those too lazy to read Part 1 (LOL), here is the meat of Prediction Number 2:

America must be downgraded to become one of several powerful countries instead of the sole superpower in the world. I can explore the terrible implications of this simple objective of the World Economic Forum in four books. But we are already seeing the implications in a suddenly turbulent Middle East and a rising and aggressive China. Even Putin is now ready to flex muscles dangerously. He knows Joe Biden will talk and talk a lot more — but will do nothing.

The key to understanding America is understanding that the whole population is virtually divided into two groups of people with opposing ideologies: you are either a patriot or a globalist. The patriots want America to be great while the globalists want Prediction Number 2 to take effect. Almost every single politician in the Democratic Party is a globalist, and that is not the problem. The problem is that there are many Republican Party politicians who are actually globalists but who have infiltrated the Republican Party so as to confuse and weaken it from within. And they are massively succeeding. These globalists are exactly like David Rockefeller who openly said in his memoirs:

“Some believe the Rockefeller family is part of a secret cabal working against the best interests of the United States in order to build a one world political and economic structure. If that’s the charge, I stand guilty, and I’m proud of it”.

Can you please read that quotation again?

Now you know that some of America’s enemies are so powerful they can speak with the impunity of David Rockefeller.

This post has already gone longer than I hoped but you must pardon me. I am trying to compress a complex issue into a few lines and it is tough. Will endeavor to end this series in Part 4.

Questions to ponder while awaiting Part 4:

Why were many NATO Member nations refusing to pay up their share until Donald Trump came to power? These offenders included Germany, which is one of the richest countries in the world today.

Why has Joe Biden approved the Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline, which will enrich Russia and also give Russia strategic advantages over the West in case of any future conflict?

Why cancel the Keystone XL Pipeline owned by a North American company only to permit Nord Stream 2 owned by Russia? They will say they are trying to protect the environment. Hogwash!

Israel discovered trillions of cubics of gas some years ago and now has a massive gas field rightly named Leviathan. This was partly why Donald Trump stopped the Nord Stream 2 pipeline project, which is a Russian pipeline to supply gas to Europe — especially Germany. Trump categorically told Angela Merkel that Germany could not expect America to protect them from Russia while still doing business with Russia. When Merkel asked Trump where he wanted Germany to get gas from, Trump said they should get it from Israel. Egypt has placed orders for Israel’s gas (a whopping $20 billion); other nations have placed orders also. But supplying Europe gas will make Israel stupendously rich in a very short time while giving them the funds for developing better missile defense systems and forcing their neighbors to make peace with them. Israel will become a regional super power with leverage and deterrence and every advantage — more than they already have.

Who does not want such a situation?

It’s my namesake, Joe Biden.

To be continued . . .

NB: Never forget that all of these things have a bearing on Bible prophecy and the end times. It is not unusual for God to talk about nations and superpowers. That is why you read about Egypt, Babylon, Syria, etc. in the Bible. Even the Roman Empire, the Greek Empire, Alexander the Great, the Persian Empire, and the division of Europe, were all prophesied in the cryptic prophesies of Daniel. All you need to understand these things is find the key.

Now let me confess to you why I am apparently wasting my time writing about American politics. It is because, if you know how to interpret Revelation, you will find out that America is the second beast of Revelation 13. So what? It is that second beast that empowers the first beast that causes the whole world to receive that popular mark everybody refers to as the mark of the beast. An easy prediction I can make is that, when I eventually pinpoint the identity of the first beast, a lot of my readers will be so shocked they will refuse to believe. I expect many to be offended. But whatever the case, I will do my duty and still go ahead: that is all I owe my brothers and sisters. Whatever you choose to do with the information I share is, frankly, your prerogative.
