Yanukovych flees Ukraine? - Russian military intervention possible

The official narrative unfolding in the Ukraine is that the nationalist Ukrainian population in the Western part of the country, backed by the US and EU, have erupted in protest, the so-called "EuroMaidan", to overthrow the corrupt government of Viktor Yanukovych who is supported by Russia and the Russian-speaking Ukrainian populations in the East and South of the nation. The apparent trigger for the uprising was a decision by the Yanukovych-led government in late-November 2013 to suspend preparations for signing an Association Agreement and a Free Trade Agreement with the European Union, in favor of closer economic relations with Russia. Since that time a large-scale uprising in Kiev and many Western regions of the Ukraine has unfolded that has included protesters forming a large encampment in the capitol city's "Independence Square" defended by long barricades of burning cars, tires, wood, etc.

Now apparently the crisis playing out in the Ukraine is coming to a head.

Earlier today an 'ultimatum' was issued for President Yanukovych to resign or protesters will resort to armed force to unseat him from power tomorrow morning (hit "CC" for English closed captions with the video below):



Recent word is that President Yanukovych flew out of Kiev purportedly for Kharkiv but he reportedly never arrived there. Rumors are circulating that the Ukrainian leader has fled to another country.

Obviously, if Russia's man in the Ukraine, Viktor Yanukovych, has been forced from power, then the stage is likely set for a major geopolitical crisis between East and West, and this, I believe, is the point.

The story unfolding before the world's eyes in the Ukraine seems to make sense on the surface, but when one takes a close critical look at what's going on, some serious questions emerge.

If, indeed, the government of Viktor Yanukovych had been serious about ending the protests that literally took over the main streets in Kiev, then there's some important questions that need to be answered.

1. Why were protesters never pushed back from main thoroughfares in Kiev like Khreshchatyk Street? Even "Occupy Wall Street" protesters never occupied Wall Street.

2. Why was cell phone service and/or electrical power never cutoff in the areas of Kiev where protesters setup their encampments? The only related article I could find to this question indicates backup electrical generators were made ready by opposition members of parliament for the protesters, but this leaves open the question why central city authorities never forced the use of any generators, which would have limited power and fuel supplies, by simply cutting off electricity to areas of Kiev occupied by protester encampments.

3. One place the amply-supplied electricity has been put to good use by EuroMaidan protesters is in brightly lighting and supplying greatly amplified sound to their huge, professionally setup stage which even includes a large screen display visible from great distances.

Yeah....WTH is that all about?!

4. Why was a rogue protester permitted to take over the stage podium and announce the February 22nd "ultimatum" for President Yanukovych to resign before protesters resort to armed force?

5. Why have protesters had such an easy time occupying city hall and many other highly symbolic public buildings in Kiev (and throughout the Ukraine for that matter)?

UPDATE: Oh my....they got a giant stage up for the protesters in Kharkiv as well....this some 20 miles from the border with Russia!:

Seriously....WTF is really going on in the Ukraine?!

Here's the deal.

I have no doubt that the vast majority of protesters are sincere in their actions and I also have no doubt that Russian/Ukrainian special services injured and murdered a good many of these common folk. The Kremlin knows full well this is how to start a civil war:



Nevertheless, the uprising's original generation and growth was FACILITATED AND FOSTERED more so than countered by Russian and Ukrainian secret services.

Why?

Ukraine is a critical East-versus-West linchpin and this is all about setting the stage for a third world war that will be blamed on Western aggression toward Russia rather than vice versa....after all, Russian astrologers predicted this years ago.

Hey, but don't worry, after the dust settles from the Kremlin's ultimate act of premeditated mass murder, Vladimir Putin's "Orthodox Church" will save whatever is left of the world:

HEY PUTIN!....YOU AND YOUR SATANIC COMRADES CAN GO STRAIGHT BACK TO THE HELL YOU CAME FROM!!!...

Obama Lets China Steal Top Secret Nuclear War Technology

The reelection of Barack Hussein Obama - a man that is probably not an American, is using a false identity and may be a mole sent to effect this nation's demise - is America's collective decision.



There are consequences:





Note how President Obama has blocked American military efforts to put up a missile shield:

US scraps final phase of European missile shield

Nice move, Benedict!

Now the global geopolitical situation is moving towards global war with the "Old Enemy", a war which America will lose....badly.

After the dust settles, I hope those left standing in the West - who were successfully deceived by the militant, authoritarian powers of the East - wake up to the lies they accepted as collective truths.

It will be the last hope this world has...

The Fate Of The Union IV: The Audacity Of False Hope Redux

Last year I posted my third "Fate Of The Union" blog in which I warned that "the 'audacity of false hope' can only go so far when God is no longer heeded". Fortunately for U.S., ours is a patient God:

The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. Instead he is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance. [2 Peter 3:9]

Thus, a year has gone by and America still stands, but I still feel great trepidation for the future. Pretty much everything I pointed out in my 'Fate Of The Union blog' last year remains the case. If anything, the wrongs are worse and man's self-destructive mass delusions have become more severe and insane.

Last year I highlighted why I believe America is the "Mother of Harlots" mentioned in Revelation 17-18 that is destroyed by fire in an hour's time by the prophetic "Beast", which I believe is Russia. Since my "apocalyptic vision" in February of 1991, which led me to comprehend what Bible prophecy means, I've been struggling to reveal the truth accordingly, although seemingly to no avail. But, alas, this is what is supposed to be the case as the Apostle Peter forewarned:

The Day of the Lord

1 Dear friends, this is now my second letter to you. I have written both of them as reminders to stimulate you to wholesome thinking. 2 I want you to recall the words spoken in the past by the holy prophets and the command given by our Lord and Savior through your apostles.

3 Above all, you must understand that in the last days scoffers will come, scoffing and following their own evil desires. 4 They will say, “Where is this ‘coming’ he promised? Ever since our ancestors died, everything goes on as it has since the beginning of creation.” 5 But they deliberately forget that long ago by God’s word the heavens came into being and the earth was formed out of water and by water. 6 By these waters also the world of that time was deluged and destroyed. 7 By the same word the present heavens and earth are reserved for fire, being kept for the day of judgment and destruction of the ungodly.

8 But do not forget this one thing, dear friends: With the Lord a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like a day. 9 The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. Instead he is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance.

10 But the day of the Lord will come like a thief. The heavens will disappear with a roar; the elements will be destroyed by fire, and the earth and everything done in it will be laid bare.[a]

11 Since everything will be destroyed in this way, what kind of people ought you to be? You ought to live holy and godly lives 12 as you look forward to the day of God and speed its coming.[b] That day will bring about the destruction of the heavens by fire, and the elements will melt in the heat. 13 But in keeping with his promise we are looking forward to a new heaven and a new earth, where righteousness dwells.

14 So then, dear friends, since you are looking forward to this, make every effort to be found spotless, blameless and at peace with him. 15 Bear in mind that our Lord’s patience means salvation, just as our dear brother Paul also wrote you with the wisdom that God gave him. 16 He writes the same way in all his letters, speaking in them of these matters. His letters contain some things that are hard to understand, which ignorant and unstable people distort, as they do the other Scriptures, to their own destruction.

17 Therefore, dear friends, since you have been forewarned, be on your guard so that you may not be carried away by the error of the lawless and fall from your secure position. 18 But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and forever! Amen. [2 Peter 3]

I'd like to write that this is all about the fate that man makes for himself, but is this true? Who is authoring this tragic tale in which we dwell and why is the script according to the apocalyptic SCRIPTures? How can HIS-story be made right?

War With Iran?

With the Elliott Wave pattern looking ominous with a total lunar eclipse approaching, it looks like war with Iran may be getting closer and may already be underway covertly:



I remain suspicious.

How was Iran able to capture a RQ-170 Sentinel drone? This is an incredible feat that seems way beyond Iran's capacity. Presuming the Islamic Republic had some Russian and/or Chinese assistance, the real issue that comes to mind is....was this a way of further pressuring Israel to strike Iran on its own, i.e., without U.S. support and knowledge? DEBKA offers some insightful analysis on this score:

The state of the lost UAV refutes the US military contention that the Sentinel's systems malfunctioned. If this had happened, it would have crashed and either been wrecked or damaged. The condition of the RQ-170 intact obliges the US and Israel to make major changes in plans for a potential strike against Iran's nuclear program.

The Obama administration's decision after internal debate not to send US commando or air units into Iran to retrieve or destroy the secret RQ-170 stealth drone which fell into Iranian hands has strengthened the hands of the Israeli faction which argues the case for striking Iran's nuclear installations without waiting for the Americans to make their move.

Senior Israeli diplomatic and security officials who followed the discussion in Washington concluded that, by failing to act, the administration has left Iran not only with the secrets of the Sentinel's stealth coating, its sensors and cameras, but also with the data stored in its computer cells on targets marked out by the US and/or Israeli for attack.

Bear in mind my opinion that Iran's nuclear program is really for provoking a fight with Israel more so than actually building the Bomb. After all, if Iran wanted to build a nuke, they could have acquired plenty of highly enriched uranium off the black market to work with. There's been no need for Tehran to pursue its brazenly public uranium enrichment program over the years except for the purpose of provocation.

Why is Iran provoking a fight with Israel? It's the same game Moscow and Beijing are playing. They know they're going to unleash a nuclear third world war that will devastate Western civilization and set the world back a century, but they want to do everything in their power to shape history in a manner such that "the Jews" and America are blamed for the coming cataclysm being planned.

Iran today revealed the American RQ-170 Sentinel drone it somehow captured:
