ISRAEL TRYING TO STOP ARAB ROCKETS

Feiglin No Surprised by High Court Decision DEC 28,08

(IsraelNN.com) Jewish Leadership faction leader Moshe Feiglin has termed the High Court the main stay of the dictatorship that controls Israel [that] reveals its true face and threatens to restore the State of Israel to the People of Israel. In an e-mail letter to supporters, Feiglin said that Sunday's court decision overturning a lower court ruling and leaving him in 36th place on the Likud Knesset candidate lists came as no surprise.After the Likud ruled that Feiglin would be dropped from his 20th place following party elections, Feiglin said he would not appeal to the courts because he did not trust the judicial system. However, MK Michael Ratzon applied to the courts and won a lower court appeal until Sunday's High Court reversal.

ISRAEL POUNDS GAZA FOR 2ND DAY

Israeli troops mobilize as Gaza assault widens By IBRAHIM BARZAK and KARIN LAUB, Associated Press Writers DEC 28,08

GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip – Israel widened its deadliest-ever air offensive against Gaza's Hamas rulers Sunday, pounding smuggling tunnels and government strongholds, sending more tanks and artillery toward the Gaza border and activating thousands of reservists for a possible ground invasion.Israeli leaders said they would press ahead with the Gaza campaign, despite enraged protests across the Arab world and Syria's decision to break off indirect peace talks with the Jewish state. Israel's foreign minister said the goal was to halt Gaza rocket fire on Israel for good, but not to reoccupy the territory.With the two-day death toll nearing 300 Sunday, crowds of Gazans breached the border wall with Egypt to escape the chaos. Egyptian forces, some firing in the air, tried to push them back into Gaza and an official said one border guard was killed.Hamas, in turn, fired rockets deeper than ever into Israel, near the Israeli port city of Ashdod.Yet Hamas leaders were forced into hiding, most of the dead were from the Hamas security forces, and Israel's military intelligence chief said Hamas' ability to fire rockets had been reduced by 50 percent. Indeed, Hamas rockets fire dropped off sharply, from more than 130 on Saturday to just over 20 on Sunday. Still, Hamas continues to command some 20,000 fighters.Israel's intense bombings — some 300 air strikes since midday Saturday — wreaked unprecedented destruction in Gaza, reducing entire buildings to rubble.After nightfall, Israeli aircraft attacked a building in the Jebaliya refugee camp next to Gaza City, killing a 14-month-old baby, a man and two women, Gaza Health Ministry official Dr. Moaiya Hassanain said. In the southern town of Rafah, Palestinian residents said a toddler and his two teenage brothers were killed in an airstrike aimed at a Hamas commander.

Israeli aircraft also bombed the Islamic University and government compound in Gaza City, centers of Hamas power, and the house next to the residence of Hamas Prime Minister Ismail Haniyeh in a Gaza City refugee camp. Haniyeh, in hiding, was not home.Shlomo Brom, a former senior Israeli military official, said it was the deadliest force ever used in decades of Israeli-Palestinian fighting. Since Hamas took over Gaza (in June 2007), it has become a war between two states, and in war between states, more force is used, he said.European leaders called on both Israel and Hamas to end the bloodshed.French President Nicolas Sarkozy spoke Sunday with Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, who leads a rival government to Hamas in the West Bank, and condemned the provocations that led to this situation as well as the disproportionate use of force.The White House was mum about the situation in Gaza on Sunday after speaking out expansively on Saturday, blaming Hamas for provoking Israel's retaliatory strikes.In the most dramatic attacks Sunday, warplanes struck dozens of smuggling tunnels under the Gaza-Egypt border, cutting off a lifeline that had supplied Hamas with weapons and Gaza with commercial goods. The influx of goods had helped Hamas defy an 18-month blockade of Gaza by Israel and Egypt, and was key to propping up its rule.Sunday's blasts shook the ground several miles away and sent black smoke high into the sky. Earlier, warplanes dropped three bombs on one of Hamas' main security compounds in Gaza City, including a prison. Moments after the blasts, frantic inmates, their faces dusty and bloodied, scrambled down the rubble. One man, still half buried, raised a hand to alert rescuers.Gaza's nine hospitals were overwhelmed. Hassanain, who keeps a record for the Gaza Health Ministry, said more than 290 people were killed over two days and more than 800 wounded.The Palestinian Center for Human Rights, which keeps researchers at all hospitals, said it had counted 251 dead by midday Sunday, and that among them were 20 children under the age of 16 and nine women.

Across Gaza, families pitched traditional mourning tents of green tarp outside homes. Yet the rows of chairs inside these tents remained largely empty, as residents cowered indoors for fear of new Israeli strikes.Israeli leaders gave interviews to foreign television networks to try win international support. Public Security Minister Avi Dichter, speaking Arabic, spoke on Arab satellite TV stations, denouncing Hamas rule in Gaza. And Foreign Minister Tzipi Livni told NBC that the assault came because Hamas, an Islamic group backed by Syria and Iran, is smuggling weapons and building a small army.In Jerusalem, Israel's Cabinet approved a callup of 6,500 reserve soldiers, raising fears of an impending ground offensive. Israel has doubled the number of troops on the Gaza border since Saturday and also deployed an artillery battery. It was not clear, though, whether the deployment was meant to pressure Hamas or whether Israel is determined to send ground troops. Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert said it was unclear when the operation would end but told his Cabinet was liable to last longer than we are able to foresee at this time.Since Israel's withdrawal from Gaza in 2005, after 38 years of full military occupation, Israeli forces have repeatedly returned to the territory to hunt militants. However, Israel has shied away from retaking the entire strip, for fear of getting bogged down in urban warfare.

The diplomatic fallout, meanwhile, was swift.

Syria decided to suspend indirect peace talks with Israel, begun earlier this year, and the U.N. Security Council called on both sides to halt the fighting and asked Israel to allow humanitarian supplies into Gaza; 30 trucks were let in Sunday. U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon called on Israel to open its crossings for the continuous provision of humanitarian supplies. In a statement, he said one Palestinian U.N. employee, and eight trainees, were among the dead. The prime minister of Turkey, one of the few Muslim countries to have relations with Israel, called the air assault a crime against humanity.The carnage inflamed Arab and Muslim public opinion, setting off street protests across the West Bank, in an Arab community in Israel, in several Middle Eastern cities and in Paris. Some of the protests turned violent. Israeli troops quelling a West Bank march killed one Palestinian and seriously wounded another. A crowd of anti-Israel protesters in the northern Iraqi city of Mosul became a target for a suicide bomber on a bicycle. In Lebanon, police fired tear gas to stop demonstrators from reaching the Egyptian Embassy. Egypt, which has served as a mediator between Israel and the Palestinians as well as between Hamas and its rival Fatah, has been criticized for joining Israel in closing its borders with Gaza. The blockade was imposed after the Hamas takeover in June 2007. Egyptian Foreign Minister Ahmed Aboul Gheit called on Hamas to renew its truce with Israel. The cease-fire began unraveling last month, and formally ended more than a week ago. Since then, Gaza militants had stepped up rocket fire on Israel. A Hamas leader in exile, Osama Hamdan, said the movement would not relent. We have one alternative, which is to be steadfast and resist and then we will be victorious, Hamdan said in Beirut. Also in Beirut, Hassan Nasrallah, leader of the Hezbollah militia, said he would not abandon Hamas, but did not threaten to attack Israel. During the Israel-Hezbollah war of 2006, the militia fired thousands of rockets into Israel. Hundreds of thousands of Israelis live in cities and towns in Gaza rocket range, and life slowed in some of the communities. Schools in communities in a 12-mile radius from Gaza were ordered to remain closed beyond the weeklong Jewish holiday of Hanukkah, which ends Monday. In the southern city of Ashkelon, home to some 120,000 people, streets were relatively busy, despite the military's recommendations against being out in the open. Several times throughout the day, however, that routine was briefly interrupted by the sounds of wailing sirens warning of an imminent attack. Pedestrians scurried for cover in buildings. After a number of rocket landed in the distance, a woman taking cover nearby briefly fainted. She refused water and food from bystanders, instead shivering in a corner, apparently in shock.

EU expresses grave concern at Israeli attacks on Gaza
LEIGH PHILLIPS Today DEC 28,08 @ 03:01 CET

The European Union has expressed its grave concern at Israel's continuing attacks on the Gaza Strip that have killed close to 300 Palestinians and injured around 900, and called the airstrikes unacceptable while calling on both sides to halt military actions.France, in one of its final acts as the outgoing chair of the EU's six-month rotating presidency, in a statement said the 27-country bloc condemns the disproportionate use of force of both parties to the conflict.There is no military solution in Gaza, the communique continued, urging the re-opening of all checkpoints and the immediate resumption of fuel and humanitarian aid deliveries.On Saturday (27 December), Israeli warplanes and helicopter gunships launched attacks against police stations, civilian houses and medical centres in the Gaza Strip. Israel says the actions are in a retaliation for Palestinian rocket and mortar fire on regions in the south of the Jewish state. The Wednesday ahead of the assault, around 70 Palestinian rockets hit Israel over a 24-hour period.Palestinian officials estimate that the bombings have killed 285 Palestinians and wounded some 900 individuals.

EU foreign relations commissioner Benita Ferrero-Waldner expressed grave concern at the ongoing Israeli military air strikes in the Gaza Strip, and called on all sides to exercise the utmost restraint and ... return immediately to the ceasefire.The bloc's chief diplomat, Javier Solana, also said that the attacks were inflicting an unacceptable toll on Palestinian civilians, and called on Tel Aviv to re-open Gaza border crossings.Mr Solana added that the EU was ready to resume its monitoring mission at the Rafah checkpoint.

Both sides criticised

If the emphasis was on the Palestinian deaths, EU leaders were however careful to criticise both Israeli and Palestinian actions.French President Nicholas Sarkozy separately expressed his great concern at the violence. Having spoken with Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, of Hamas rival al Fatah, the French leader denounced the provocations that led to this situation as well as the disproportionate use of force.UK foreign minister David Miliband used similar language, saying that he and Prime Minister Gordon Brown were following the situation with grave concern.Mr Brown had also said Israel should do everything in its power to avoid civilian casualties.According to German newspaper Bild am Sonntag, the country's foreign minister, Frank-Walter Steinmeier, meanwhile placed blame for the renewal of conflict with Hamas' and its decision to end its truce with Israel, calling on the group to immediately and permanently stop the insufferable rocket attacks on Israel, while calling on the Jewish state to maintain proportion in its actions.Finnish foreign minister Alexander Stubb, said: Finland condemns the escalation of violence in Gaza and urges the parties to calm down the situation. Finland is particularly worried about the rapid deterioration of the civilian living conditions in Gaza. The Israeli air strikes have demanded a disproportionate amount of civilian victims and they must end immediately, he added. Simultaneously Hamas and other extremist groups must immediately cease their rocket attacks. The parties must reinstate the truce without delay.

Meanwhile, having spoken to his counterparts across Europe, French foreign minister Bernard Kouchner said: Europe has a role to play, to de-escalate the violence, noting that the assault on Gaza has occurred while there is both a vacancy of power in Israel and the US.Israel is heading into general elections, while the US awaits the inauguration of president-elect Barack Obama.Mr Kouchner spoke to Egyptian foreign minister Ahmed Abul Gheit on Saturday (27 December). The French foreign minister hopes to encourage Cairo in its attempts to relaunch the peace process between the two belligerents.The Egyptians are capable of restarting the peace process, we must help them, said the French minister.In June, Egypt managed to broker a six-month ceasefire between Hamas and Israel. Israel however resumed its blockade of the Gaza Strip.According to the United Nations, as a result of the blockade, Gazans receive running water once every five to seven days and food supplies are dangerously low. UN operations in Gaza ran out of food two weeks ago for the first time in 60 years, according to the Times of London, which also reports that families are eating wild grass for nourishment.

Protests

The president of the European Parliament, Hans-Gert Poettering, also condemned both sides, but underscored that the massive Israeli reaction which killed more than 270 people and injured hundreds, is an escalation that is totally disproportionate.A life of a Palestinian has the same value as the life of an Israeli, he said.Protests against the Israeli attacks have kicked off across Europe, with thousands demonstrating in London, Paris, Madrid and elsewhere. Large rallies also took place in Turkey, a candidate for EU membership. Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan on Saturday called Israel's actions a crime against humanity.

FROM WND'S JERUSALEM BUREAU PA leader begged Israel to hit Hamas To world, however, Abbas condemns Gaza strikes as barbaric, unnecessary December 27, 2008 6:32 pm Eastern By Aaron Klein 2008 WorldNetDaily

Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas

JAFFA, Israel – Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas and his office today slammed as barbaric and unnecessary Israel's air strikes in Gaza, but according to top diplomatic sources in Jerusalem, Abbas for months now has been petitioning Israel to launch a massive military raid against his Hamas rivals in Gaza. The sources, speaking to WND on condition of anonymity, said Abbas and his top representatives have waged a quiet campaign for months asking the Israeli government to target Hamas in Gaza just before his term in office is scheduled to expire on Jan. 9. Hamas leaders have repeatedly warned they will not recognize Abbas after the 9th, and that they will launch a major campaign to delegitimize the PA president and install their own figures to lead the Palestinian government. Abbas hopes a large-scale Israeli military campaign in Gaza would distract Hamas from attempting to undermine his rule, the diplomatic sources told WND. It's an open secret among the diplomatic and military brass, one Israeli diplomatic source said. The campaign from Abbas for us to attack Hamas in Gaza has been intensive.Do you really want to understand the conflict in the Middle East? You have to listen to what the terrorists say behind closed doors. Only one man has been listening to them - Aaron Klein, WND's Jerusalem bureau chief and author of Schmoozing With Terrorists. Get it now from the people who published it - WND Books.The source insisted, however, that today's airstrikes were not aimed at helping Abbas, and that Israel hoped to quickly conclude a cease-fire agreement with Hamas whereby Israeli military operations would be suspended.Despite reported behind-the-scenes advocacy of action against Hamas, Abbas today publicly chastised Israel for the Gaza airstrike. Speaking during a visit to Saudi Arabia, he told reporters, There are no reasons for the Israeli raids. Abbas' office in the West Bank released a statement condemning the raids as Israeli aggression and calling for restraint. Nabil Abu Rudeineh, an aid to Abbas, called Israel's actions in Gaza barbaric.

Hamas planning new PLO to compete with U.S.-backed Abbas

In a move that could have monumental ramifications, the Hamas terrorist organization is quietly working to create its own Palestine Liberation Organization, or PLO, to compete with the well-known group of the same namesake headed by Abbas, Hamas officials told WND earlier this week. The effort is part of a larger expected Hamas campaign to delegitimize Abbas after Jan. 9. According to sources close to Abbas, of all the moves Hamas is planning, the PA chief is most worried about the creation of a second PLO to compete with the group he heads, which has long been dominated by his Fatah party. The PLO has been recognized since the 1960s as the sole representative body of the Palestinian people and is the signatory of major agreements with Israel, including the 1993 Oslo Accords. Hamas officials told WND their group is in the process of building a second PLO, which would be a grand coalition of major Palestinian groups, including Hamas, Islamic Jihad, the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine-General Command in Lebanon, and even part of the Damascus-based Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, which has until now leaned toward Fatah. According to sources in Hamas, some members of Fatah, including Faruq Al-Khadumi, chief of the political bureau of the PLO, assisted in a recent meeting in which Hamas presented the possibility of creating a new PLO. The original PLO was founded by late-Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat and other Palestinian figures in 1964. It incorporates major Palestinian groups friendly to Fatah, including the PFLP. The creation of a new PLO might be the final nail in Abbas' political coffin after his term in office expires.

Top Hamas officials told WND in recent interviews that their group, which won 2006 parliamentary elections, will no longer recognize Abbas after Jan. 9. At midnight on the 10th, we are removing all of Abu Mazen's (Abbas') pictures from official buildings and institutions throughout the Gaza Strip, Mahmoud al-Zahar, chief of Hamas in Gaza, told WND. Do you believe in democracy? al-Zahar asked, speaking by cell phone from Gaza. If you do then you will accept that Abbas will no longer be the president. Legally, the leadership of the PA falls to us until new elections are held.Abbas has said he will take advantage of a law whereby he can declare emergency rule and remain PA president until early 2010. A new poll published by the Western-oriented Palestinian Center for Policy and Survey Research released earlier this month showed 64 percent of Palestinians believe Abbas' term should not be prolonged. Only 24 percent believe he should remain in office. The polls seem to reflect larger trends within Palestinian society that are likely deeply troubling for Abbas. During the 2006 elections, Hamas not only won two-thirds of the vote, but the terror group swept the vote in important so-called refugee camps in Lebanon and Syria, in spite of Fatah's strong presence there. The numbers proved Hamas has major support in the camps, which could be instrumental in its plans to establish another PLO. The move could have major ramifications for U.S. and Israeli policy. Both countries consider Fatah to be moderate and have engaged in talks seeking to create a Fatah-led Palestinian state. And since most major Israeli-Palestinian agreements are signed by the PLO, the creation of a new organization could signal the end of Palestinian responsibility to the agreements if a second PLO indeed takes off.

Meanwhile, Abbas has successfully enlisted the help of Egypt in slowing down the emergence of a new PLO. According to officials in Hamas speaking to WND, the group originally planned to debut the competing PLO before January. But, the officials said, Egypt last month pressed Syria to petition Hamas to halt their efforts for the time being, pending the outcome of political uncertainty after Abbas' term expires. The Hamas officials said they will wait until at least January.

Arab protesters demand response to Gaza Sun Dec 28, 12:23 PM
By Aseel Kami and Sabah al-Bazee

BAGHDAD (Reuters) - Protesters burned Israeli and U.S. flags on Sunday in a string of Arab countries and demanded a stronger response from their leaders to Israel's attack on Gaza.Arab silence is behind the bombings, read a banner held by one of several thousand people who turned out in the Sunni Arab city of Samarra north of Baghdad.The Israeli raids, some of the worst in 60 years of Israeli-Palestinian conflict, incensed many in the Arab world, where many governments are seen by popular Islamist movements as collaborators with the United States or Israel.America and the Zionists are the leaders of world terrorism, read a placard held by protesters at the U.N. headquarters in the Lebanese capital Beirut. They demanded U.N. intervention to end the Israeli onslaught.Similar protests were held in Palestinian refugee camps in Lebanon, home to some 400,000 refugees displaced when Israel was established in 1948.In Amman, Jordanian deputies burned an Israeli flag during a parliamentary session on Sunday to show solidarity with the Palestinians.

Deputies also demanded the kingdom, the second Arab country to sign a peace agreement with Israel, sever diplomatic ties with its neighbor and expel its ambassador.In the second day of protests in the Jordanian capital, hundreds of people marched to the Egyptian embassy to demand Cairo throw open its border with Gaza, ending the blockade imposed on the coastal strip for much of the time since Hamas won Palestinian parliamentary elections in 2006.In the center of the Syrian capital Damascus, thousands of people carrying Palestinian and Syrian flags filled streets around a popular square, chanted anti-U.S. and anti-Israeli slogans and burned an American flag.Victory belongs to heroic Gaza, one banner said. Until when will the Arab silence continue? read another.In Baladiyat, a Baghdad district inhabited by many Palestinians given refuge in Iraq under Saddam Hussein, men waved banners and condemned Arab nations for not doing enough to support Palestinians.We have been waiting for action from Arab leaders for almost 60 years, Jaleel al-Qasus, the Palestinian envoy to Iraq, said during the protest by several hundred people.

Our efforts have been in vain.

Scores of protesters tried to approach the Egyptian embassy in Beirut to demand Egypt open up its borders to Gaza, where 1.5 million Palestinians live under Israeli and Egyptian blockade. Police used tear gas to stop the demonstrators approaching.In Egypt itself, protesters gathered in Cairo and five other towns, security sources said. They burned Israeli flags and carried placards denouncing Israel.Scuffles broke out outside the Israeli embassy in London on after more than 700 demonstrators gathered to protest. Police said two or three people had been arrested but the Israeli embassy denied protesters had got into the embassy itself.In Madrid, hundreds of Palestinians, Muslims and anti-war activists rallied outside the Israeli Embassy. Protesters waved placards that read Israel Genocide.

SUICIDE BOMBER

A teenage boy was killed in one protest in the volatile northern Iraqi city of Mosul when a suicide bomber on a bicycle detonated explosives in a crowd of around 300 protesters.It was not clear why the bomber would have targeted an anti-Israeli rally. Police said 17 people were wounded in the attack in Mosul.Several thousand people protested in the Iraqi city of Samarra and a few hundred took to the streets in Falluja. Iraq hosted 30,000 Palestinian refugees before the U.S.-led invasion of Iraq in 2003.The office of Grand Ayatollah Ali al-Sistani, the reclusive cleric who has influence among Shi'ites in Iraq, issued a statement condemning what he called a savage operation.The Arab and Muslim world demand, more than ever, a practical stance to stop this never-ending offensive, it said.Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei issued a religious decree ordering Muslims around the world to defend Palestinians in Gaza against Israeli attacks in any way possible.Several protests were held in Tehran, including one by Iranian lawmakers chanting Death to Israel.

In Yemen, the ruling party organized a demonstration attended mainly by civil servants who agreed at a stadium in the capital Sanaa to send a ship with humanitarian aid to Gaza.Protesters chanted, Gaza, your blood is our blood!Additional reporting by Nadim Ladki in Beirut, Aziz El-Kaissouni in Cairo, Juan Medina in Madrid, Jodie Ginsberg in London and Mohamed Ghobari in Sanaa; Writing by Missy Ryan and Philippa Fletcher; Editing by Angus MacSwan)

Bush,Rice and all his advisors in the Whitehouse do not believe in Prophecy thats why they gladly during their term were willing to Divide Jerusalem in to a 2 state solution. This crew believed in Replacement Theology,that Jerusalem means something historically,but not no Bible Significence. This Crew replaces Israel with the Church and Jerusalem with Heaven thats why no Biblical significence of Jerusalem by this crew. Meanwhile In Joel 3:2 it says When Jerusalem is divided,WW3 occurrs.

HOARDING OF GOLD AND SILVER

DOCTOR DOCTORIAN FROM ANGEL OF GOD
then the angel said, Financial crisis will come to Asia. I will shake the world.

JAMES 5:1-3
1 Go to now, ye rich men, weep and howl for your miseries that shall come upon you.
2 Your riches are corrupted, and your garments are motheaten.
3 Your gold and silver is cankered; and the rust of them shall be a witness against you, and shall eat your flesh as it were fire. Ye have heaped treasure together for the last days.

REVELATION 18:10,17,19
10 Standing afar off for the fear of her torment, saying, Alas, alas that great city Babylon, that mighty city! for in one hour is thy judgment come.
17 For in one hour so great riches is come to nought. And every shipmaster, and all the company in ships, and sailors, and as many as trade by sea, stood afar off,
19 And they cast dust on their heads, and cried, weeping and wailing, saying, Alas, alas that great city, wherein were made rich all that had ships in the sea by reason of her costliness! for in one hour is she made desolate.

EZEKIEL 7:19
19 They shall cast their silver in the streets, and their gold shall be removed: their silver and their gold shall not be able to deliver them in the day of the wrath of the LORD: they shall not satisfy their souls, neither fill their bowels: because it is the stumblingblock of their iniquity.

REVELATION 13:16-18
16 And he(FALSE POPE) causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:(CHIP IMPLANT)
17 And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.

10 Predictions for 2009 By Jason Hamlin
http://www.goldstockbull.com/10-predictions-for-2009/

I don’t have a crystal ball, but my forecasts have been fairly accurate and quite profitable over the past few years. While 2008 has been a tough year, all signs point to 2009 being much worse. Here is what I see on the horizon for the upcoming year.

1) The stock market decline will accelerate in 2009, with the Dow Jones Industrial Average dipping below 6,000. Extreme volatility will engulf the markets with plenty of counter-trend rallies that will be fueled by speculators calling the bottom, only to find a new bottom the following month.

2) Unemployment will rise dramatically as official statistics reach towards 10% and true unemployment rises closer to 20%.

3) Real estate prices will continue to drop as rates reset and foreclosures increase across the country. Commercial real estate will finally follow residential, as price declines accelerate due to foreclosures on shopping malls, retail outlets, office buildings, etc.

4) Bailouts will continue, with more industries lining up for government rescue packages and both the financial and auto industries returning to the trough for more of their fix. This will lead to prediction #5.

5) Deflation will subdue and the first signs of hyperinflation will appear in the back half of 2009 as the trillions in bailout dollars begin to flow into the economy. The price declines that are a result of liquidation and de-leveraging, will give way to skyrocketing prices as politicians continue trying to print and borrow our way out of bad times. This will lead to prediction #6.

6) The dollar will resume its downtrend and make new lows during the first half of 2009. This will continue throughout the year with the dollar reaching into the low 60’s as the world loses confidence in the U.S. currency and the U.S. government’s ability to repay its debt.

7) Oil will rise from current lows and find a fair price somewhere in the $75 - $100 range, where it will float for much of the year. This will benefit alternative energy companies, although any gains will be muted by credit contraction and the overall market decline.

8) Agriculture prices will return to an uptrend as declining investment and unpredictable weather patterns lead to supply shortages amidst an ever-expanding population and increase in inflation.

9) Gold will make a new all-time (nominal) high reaching a price of $1,400 or more during 2009. A panicked flight to safety could push gold towards $2,000, although the central banks will dump gold on the market or make other attempts at suppressing the price advance.

10) All of the above will lead to increased crime and civil unrest with protests in the streets, bank runs and an increased police and military presence trying to bring stability to cities.

I wish that my predictions were a bit more uplifting, but we are truly in dire straits with conditions only continuing to worsen. The United States is essentially bankrupt and running on borrowed money and borrowed time. Many Americans will be facing severe financial hardship for the first time in their lives.

The silver lining is that these conditions are necessary to shake our apathy, demand better from our government, our community and ourselves. It is tough medicine, but is a necessary prescription that will force the change that is needed in this country and the world. We have to hit rock bottom, feel hardship, liquidate excesses and rampant corruption from the system, restructure our government, economy and entire social system. It is not going to be a pleasant undertaking but I am optimistic that we will emerge with a much better world and way of life.

In the meantime, you should be doing everything you can to stay informed, protect your assets and prepare for the transition ahead. I caution my readers not to be suckered into so called buying opportunities as we are nowhere near the bottom and I don’t anticipate conditions will improve for at least another 3-5 years. If you want to know the specific investments that I am making and receive my monthly newsletter, consider the premium subscription service.

Those with metaphysical inclinations may also be interested to know that the 3-5 year time horizon forecasts that we reach a bottom somewhere around the year 2012. Dec 21st of 2012 is the end of the long count of the Mayan calendar which started 5,125 years ago and coincides with the first time in approximately 26,000 years that the Sun will rise to conjunct the intersection of the Milky Way (eye, heart, center) and the ecliptic plane. According to the ancient Maya, this date will mark the end of one world as we know it and the beginning of another. No matter your beliefs, we are in for a period of significant change that will require reflection, adjustment and adaptation to a very different world that awaits.

Kuwait cancels $17 billion deal with Dow Chemical
Sun Dec 28, 5:31 PM By Ulf Laessing

KUWAIT (Reuters) - Kuwait decided on Sunday to scrap a deal to form a $17.4 billion petrochemical joint venture with U.S. company Dow Chemical .The cancellation of the deal, which had met opposition in Kuwait's parliament, was acknowledged Sunday by Dow and is a blow to the largest U.S. chemicals company. Dow had planned to use the proceeds to repay a large part of $13 billion in debt it will have to shoulder once its acquisition of rival Rohm & Haas closes, which is expected to be in early 2009.

The Supreme Petroleum Council, at a meeting headed by Prime Minister Sheikh Nasser al-Mohammad al-Sabah, arrived at the decision to cancel the contract, state news agency KUNA said.State-run Petrochemical Industries Co (PIC) signed a deal earlier this month with Dow to launch the joint venture, K-Dow Petrochemicals, and was due to pay $7.5 billion. The deal was part of Dow's strategy to reduce its exposure to the cyclical nature of the commodity chemicals business.Dow did not return calls seeking clarification about whether the deal's collapse would affect its plans to acquire Rohm & Haas.The deal would have been the latest between a major U.S. company and Middle East investors. General Electric and Abu Dhabi investment agency Mubadala Development Co formed an $8 billion joint venture in July to provide commercial finance in the Middle East and Africa.The deal had angered some Kuwaiti parliamentarians who said the project was not economically viable in light of the global financial crisis and slumping petrochemical sales.A cabinet statement said the global crisis had prompted the cabinet to ask the council to take the necessary measures to cancel the contract ... within a sound legal framework while safeguarding the state's rights and interests, KUNA reported.Four liberal MPs had threatened to question the prime minister, a senior member of the ruling family, unless the deal was scrapped.Another move by some deputies to question Sheikh Nasser on another issue had prompted the cabinet to resign in November, though the ruler reappointed his nephew.Parliament has a history of challenging the government with the same liberal MPs having opposed building the $15 billion Al-Zour refinery for which final contracts have not yet been signed despite an award in May.

Dow said in a statement Sunday, it was extremely disappointed with the decision by the Kuwait Government, and is in the process of evaluating its options pursuant to the Joint Venture Formation Agreement. The Midland, Michigan-based company added that it remains committed to its Middle East Strategy.Dow and other chemical makers around the globe face one of the worst slumps ever in chemical demand, due to recessions in most developed countries and a sharp slowdown in emerging economies.

Earlier this month, Dow said it would close 20 facilities, divest several businesses and cut 5,000 jobs, or 11 percent, of its workforce. It also plans to temporarily idle about 180 plants.Kuwait and Dow lowered the value of the joint venture more than 8 percent to $17.4 billion earlier this month after the Gulf Arab state asked to cut its contribution in light of a sharp slowdown in global demand.The new company had been due to market petrochemicals and plastics such as polyethylene, polypropylene and polycarbonate, used in products ranging from plastic bottles and compact disks to computers and agricultural compounds. In July, Dow said it would acquire Rohm & Haas for $15.3 billion in a move to broaden its specialty product offerings.(Additional reporting by Phil Wahba in New York; Editing by Jason Neely, Maureen Bavdek and Gunna Dickson)
