We begin reporting on Angela Merkel’s meeting with Donald Trump in Washington and bring you some analysis as to who was clearly in charge and the broken relationship between the EU and the USA; and we publish articles which propose a stronger EU under German and French leadership and a core nucleus of some European countries. We also quote from an article stating that former German Chancellor candidate Martin Schulz “is back.” In this context, please view our most recent StandingWatch program, titled, “Merkel vs. Trump… No Love Lost.”

We report on America’s new ambassador in Germany and the requirement in Bavaria to hang crosses in all state government buildings.

Focusing on Israel, we report on the miracle of the 70 year existence of the Jewish state (please view our StandingWatch program in this regard, titled, “The Miraculous 70 Years Existence of the state of Israel… What’s Next?”) and point out that Israel is generally hit with a large earthquake every 70 years, which is overdue.

We quote from an article showing that the two temples clearly stood on the Temple Mount (please view our StandingWatch program, “A Third Temple prior to Christ’s Return”); address anti-Semitism in Germany; and focus on a growing military escalation between Israel and Iran. We also show again the frightening ignorance of many Americans with respect to the Holocaust and concentration camps, such as Auschwitz.

We continue with reporting on the shameful conduct of British doctors and the court system regarding the death of Baby Alfie and left-liberal California’s contemplated attacks on homeschooling [which have failed for the time being] and those opposing homosexuality and transgenderism (In this context, read our free booklet, “God’s Teachings on Sexual Relationships”).

We conclude with an insightful article confirming the existence of the biblical fountains of the deep at the time of Noah; and point out the nonsense of the flat earth conspiracies.

Throughout this section, we have underlined pertinent statements in the quoted articles, for the convenience and quick overview of the reader.

We begin with the landslide election victory of right wing Victor Orban as Hungary’s Prime Minister, adding to concerns of far right views and anti-Semitism all over Europe.

We continue with the ongoing strained relationship between Turkey and Israel and undeniable preparations for the building of the third temple and Jewish worship services on the Temple Mount.

We address Pope Francis’ denial of the existence of hell and the immortality of the soul, infuriating many “Christians” (while the Vatican is again childishly scrambling to defuse Francis’ statements). Please view in this context our new StandingWatch program, titled, Pope Francis and Hell–Closer to the Truth?” 

We quote from a remarkable German article taking the position that the world is preparing for the next war (since that is what people want); and report on America’s new tax law which proves to be a mess.

We focus on President Trump’s economic policy, which is perceived to pose a real threat to Germany and Europe; and discuss the volatile situation in Syria.

We speak on the US Presidency being under siege by the FBI; and conclude with articles on Britain pertaining to Brexit and the Commonwealth.

We also address German and European reactions to contemplated American tariffs on trade, which have been postponed for now, while China is being hit hard; speak on the new “rotten” US budget deal; and report on America’s new National Security Advisor.

We focus on China’s warning to the world; report on Israel’s admission of having destroyed a nuclear reactor in Syria; and point out the growing worldwide interest in a Third Temple in Jerusalem and the planned reenactment of the sacrifice of a Passover lamb.

In this issue, we begin with addressing the ongoing conflict with North Korea which is far from over and which might very soon reach a boiling point with terrible consequences; report on America’s surprising announcement to [sort of] move its embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, coinciding with the 70th anniversary of Israel’s founding on May 14 and with Nakba, the mass migration of some 700,000 Palestinians.

We continue with reporting on turmoil in the White House and the proposal of trained armed teachers in schools, which has met with strong resistance from America’s teachers’ unions and others; point out the willingness of many companies to finally cut ties with the NRA; address the question as to what the Second Amendment actually DOES and DOES NOT say; and explain why there is so little gun violence in Israel.

Focusing on worldwide terrorism, we show that ISIS is far from being defeated and that the infiltration of terrorists is a legitimate concern, which needs to be addressed—but we also show the problems with the way in which some want to address it—including controversial demonization and hypocritical and impractical, if not illegal, immigration proposals.

We focus on a possible trade war and an interesting rising star in Angela Merkel’s cabinet; and discuss the rise of fascism in Italy.

We conclude with an article about increasing demonic possession in Italy and elsewhere; as well as with an update on the despicable situation regarding the court-ordered loss of custody by parents of a transgender child.

Current Events

We begin with the explosive sessions in Munich, Germany, during the International Security Conference; continue with the European and German realization that in light of American unreliability, more must be done to achieve their goal of a European army; focus on new scandals in Germany; Europe’s attempts to re-write history; the deteriorating relationship between Israel and Poland; and the UK’s schizophrenic approach regarding Brexit; and we speak on Israel’s warning to attack Iran; flagrant war crimes in Syria; and the real possibility of a nuclear war by accident.

We continue with the diverse reactions to the American indictment of 13 Russians and Russian companies in connection with the 2016 US election; and focus on the aftermath of the school shooting in Florida, while especially addressing the thorny and politically inconvenient issue of gun control.

We begin with explosive developments in Germany and discuss the ongoing public dissatisfaction with the current and proposed new government, while also addressing the uncertain and perhaps somewhat surprising future of Martin Schulz and Angela Merkel. (Also note this week’s Editorial on the developments in Germany, as well as our new StandingWatch program, “Germany’s Dirty Politics.”  The program was also published in the German language, titled, “Deutschlands Schmutzige Politik.” ).

We continue with the short temporary shutdown of the US government; an agreed-upon budget pact of $400 billion; and President Trump’s proposed controversial $4 trillion budget for 2019; Dow Jones’ unprecedented rollercoaster ride; the sure expectation of a very bad recession within perhaps three years; the interesting perception that President Trump does not understand economics, combined with one of his proposals which seems to be dead on arrival; another court ruling blocking the implementation of his decision on DACA; his politically risky refusal to release the Democratic response to a Republican memo charging the FBI and others with wrongdoing; and his stance on domestic violence in the light of continued allegations against him of harassment and improper sexual conduct.

We address the horrific mass shooting in Florida; the volatile escalation of the situation in Syria, as it pertains to Israel and Iran as well as the USA, Turkey and the Kurds; and the interesting recommendation that in light of America’s total absence in the Syrian issue, Europe and especially Germany should intervene to avoid the outbreak of a terrible third war in the region. We conclude with Israel’s strong position to ignore America’s stance if it conflicts with Israel’s interests; and America’s concern regarding the European Joint Defense Agreement; as well as a shocking article about Poland.

The world has experienced several days of crazy trading. The Dow Jones bounced back late Tuesday, but dropped again Wednesday and on Thursday, it plunged again more than 1,000 points. The loss has been tremendous [for instance, time.com reported that Warren Buffet’s net worth dropped by $5 billion on Monday alone] and the world is getting a foretaste as to what is surely going to happen very soon.

The Vatican and Turkey, as well as the Europeans, are ganging up on Israel and are fighting for the Temple Mount, and our new StandingWatch program, titled, “The Vatican’s Fight for Mount Zion and Jerusalem,” addresses this prophetic development in detail.

Poland is anxious to deny any responsibility for the Holocaust, and a political move by Germany’s controversial foreign minister (SPD) supports Poland and angers Israel. However, these questionable actions are only helping the right-wing AfD to gain further ground in Germany. As we predicted, Angela Merkel (CDU) and Martin Schulz (SPD) finally struck a coalition deal to form a new government, which still needs to be approved by the membership of the SPD.

At the same time, Germany seems to abide by EU rules only when they are advantageous to Germany.

Current Events

We begin with President Trump’s first State of the Union address, which seemed to have failed in bringing about more unity between the two warring parties; and we continue with the unique and at times rocky relationship between the State of Israel and America’s evangelicals; the resurgence of atrocities in Afghanistan as an apparent response to America’s new security policies; further incredible facts about Hawaii’s incompetency in relationship to the false alarm of a nuclear attack; the conviction of most millennials that America is on the wrong track while President Trump’s approval rating is climbing; serious concerns for world conditions in 2018 due to President Trump’s unpredictability and his short temper; and the dark prospects of a trade war between Europe and the USA with terrible consequences for the entire world.

We continue with ongoing steps to unify continental Europe as a most powerful entity; address the coalition negotiations in Germany, under Angela Merkel and Manfred Schulz; speak about Austria’s role as a “bridge-builder”; point out the UK’s failing army; and point out further disagreement regarding Brexit talks. 

In the remaining part of this Current Events section, we speak on abominable “scientific” experiments with animals and humans, including by car manufactures in Germany and the USA; the cloning of chimpanzees and the creation of human-animal hybrids; the inevitability of a huge earthquake in Canada; and the rise of demonic activities in Ireland and elsewhere. We warn of dangerous statements by Pope Francis in this context [please see our new StandingWatch program, Demon Uprising or Medical Side Effects?”]; and we conclude with an article proving the existence of God as the Creator of our solar system.
