Turkey Dries Up the Euphrates-The crisis
revolves around the Euphrates River, which quickly became the Euphrates
Creek when Turkey completely cut off the water flow upstream of Syria,
reported Al Akhbar on May 30. The Euphrates originates in Turkey and
passes through the Atatürk Dam before flowing into Syria and Iraq. By
cutting off the flow and directing it into the reservoir, Turkey has
lowered water levels downstream.Water levels in Lake Assad, Syria’s
largest body of water, have dropped by 20 feet since Turkey shut off the
water supply. The Euphrates hydrates large parts of Syria.
When did Turkey dam the Euphrates river?
The
construction began in 1983 and was completed in 1990. (7 YEARS) (THE
FUTURE TRIBULATION IS ALSO 7 YEARS)-The dam and the hydroelectric power
plant, which went into service after the upfilling of the reservoir was
completed in 1992, are operated by the State Hydraulic Works (DSİ).
THE
FINAL BATTLE IS ALL NATIONS COME AGAINST JERUSALEM TO STEAL IT FROM
ISRAEL.BUT JESUS RETURNS TO EARTH BODILY, LITERAL TO DESTROY ALL THE
WORLD ARMIES.AND RULE FOREVER FROM DAVIDS THRONE IN JERUSALEM.

cried with a loud cry to him that had the sharp sickle, saying, Thrust
in thy sharp sickle, and gather the clusters of the vine of the earth;
for her grapes are fully ripe.
19 And the angel thrust in his sickle
into the earth, and gathered the vine of the earth, and cast it into the
great winepress of the wrath of God.

20 And the beast (EU WORLD DICTATOR) was

mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were
cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone.

remnant were slain with the sword of him that sat upon the horse, which
sword proceeded out of his mouth: and all the fowls were filled with
their flesh.(ISRAELS MIGRATION SEASON)

teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths: for out of Zion
shall go forth the law, and the word of the LORD from Jerusalem.

shall they learn war any more.

Leaders gather with China's Xi for summit ceremony.
Tianjin,
China, Sept 1 (AFP) Sep 01, 2025-Around two dozen Eurasian leaders will
gather on Monday morning for a ceremony hosted by President Xi Jinping
on the final day of a showpiece summit aimed at putting China front and
centre of regional relations.The Shanghai Cooperation Organisation
summit kicked off on Sunday in the northern port city of Tianjin, days
before a massive military parade in the capital Beijing to mark 80 years
since the end of World War II.The SCO comprises China, India, Russia,
Pakistan, Iran, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Uzbekistan and
Belarus -- with 16 more countries affiliated as observers or "dialogue
partners".Billed as an "opening ceremony", Monday's gathering is the
first time all the leaders will assemble together at the summit, and Xi
will deliver a speech.Russian President Vladimir Putin touched down in
Tianjin on Sunday with an entourage of senior politicians and business
representatives.Xi held a flurry of back-to-back bilateral meetings with
leaders including Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko -- one of
Putin's staunch allies -- and India's Prime Minister Narendra Modi, on
his first visit to China since 2018.Modi told Xi that India was
committed to taking "forward our ties on the basis of mutual trust,
dignity and sensitivity".The two most populous nations are intense
rivals competing for influence across South Asia and fought a deadly
border clash in 2020.A thaw began last October, when Modi met with Xi
for the first time in five years at a summit in Russia.- 'Mutual
benefit' -Large sections of Tianjin were closed to traffic, with a
significant police presence deployed around the city.Official posters
promoting the SCO lined the streets, displaying words such as "mutual
benefit" and "equality" written in Chinese and Russian.China and Russia
have sometimes touted the SCO as an alternative to the NATO military
alliance. This year's summit is the first since US President Donald
Trump returned to the White House.More than 20 leaders including Iranian
President Masoud Pezeshkian and his Turkish counterpart Recep Tayyip
Erdogan are attending the bloc's largest meeting since its founding in
2001.Putin is expected to hold talks on Monday with Erdogan and
Pezeshkian about the Ukraine conflict and Tehran's nuclear programme
respectively.Many of the assembled dignitaries will be in Beijing on
Wednesday to witness the military parade, which will also be attended by
North Korean leader Kim Jong Un.
Putin and Modi in China for summit hosted by Xi.
Tianjin,
China, Aug 31 (AFP) Aug 31, 2025-President Xi Jinping gathered the
leaders of Russia and India among dignitaries from around 20 Eurasian
countries on Sunday to kick off a showpiece summit aimed at putting
China front and centre of regional relations.The Shanghai Cooperation
Organisation summit is being held in the northern port city of Tianjin
until Monday, days before a massive military parade in the capital
Beijing to mark 80 years since the end of World War II.The SCO comprises
China, India, Russia, Pakistan, Iran, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan,
Tajikistan, Uzbekistan and Belarus -- with 16 more countries affiliated
as observers or "dialogue partners".Russian President Vladimir Putin
touched down in Tianjin on Sunday with an entourage of senior
politicians and business representatives.Xi held a flurry of
back-to-back bilateral meetings with leaders including Belarusian
President Alexander Lukashenko -- one of Putin's staunch allies -- and
India's Prime Minister Narendra Modi, on his first visit to China since
2018.Modi told Xi that India was committed to taking "forward our ties
on the basis of mutual trust, dignity and sensitivity".Xi, in turn, told
Modi that he hoped the two countries would recognise that they are
"partners rather than rivals".If they see each other as "opportunities
for development rather than threats", China-India relations will grow
steadily, Xi added, according to state broadcaster CCTV.The two most
populous nations are intense rivals competing for influence across South
Asia and fought a deadly border clash in 2020.A thaw began last
October, when Modi met with Xi for the first time in five years at a
summit in Russia."The interests of 2.8 billion people of both countries
are linked to our cooperation. This will also pave the way for the
welfare of the entire humanity," Modi told Xi.- 'Project influence' -The
bilateral talks were held at the Tianjin Guest House, an intimate venue
surrounded by lush greenery.Security guards positioned themselves
around and inside the venue, their eyes scanning reporters and guests
carefully, as Chinese diplomats hurried through the halls.Large sections
of Tianjin were closed to traffic, with a significant police presence
deployed around the city.Official posters promoting the SCO lined the
streets, displaying words such as "mutual benefit" and "equality"
written in Chinese and Russian.China and Russia have sometimes touted
the SCO as an alternative to the NATO military alliance. This year's
summit is the first since US President Donald Trump returned to the
White House.As China's claim over Taiwan and Russia's invasion of
Ukraine have seen them clash with the United States and Europe, experts
say that Beijing and Moscow are eager to use platforms such as the SCO
to curry favour."China has long sought to present the SCO as a
non-Western-led power bloc that promotes a new type of international
relations, which, it claims, is more democratic," said Dylan Loh, an
assistant professor at Singapore's Nanyang Technological University.More
than 20 leaders including Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian and his
Turkish counterpart Recep Tayyip Erdogan are attending the bloc's
largest meeting since its founding in 2001.- Talks on the sidelines
-Putin is expected to hold talks on Monday with Erdogan and Pezeshkian
about the Ukraine conflict and Tehran's nuclear programme
respectively.Xi met Erdogan on Sunday to discuss the situations in Gaza
and Ukraine, a readout from Ankara said.Turkey has hosted three rounds
of peace talks between Moscow and Kyiv this year that have failed to
break the deadlock over how to end the conflict.The Russian president
needs "all the benefits of SCO as a player on the world stage and also
the support of the second largest economy in the world", said Lim Tai
Wei, a professor and East Asia expert at Japan's Soka University."Russia
is also keen to win over India, and India's trade frictions with the
United States presents this opportunity," Lim told AFP.The summit comes
days after India was hit by a sharp bump up in US tariffs on its goods
as punishment for New Delhi's purchases of Russian oil.Many of the
assembled dignitaries will be in Beijing on Wednesday to witness the
military parade, which will also be attended by North Korean leader Kim
Jong Un.
Pope urges end to 'pandemic of arms'.
Vatican
City, Aug 31 (AFP) Aug 31, 2025-Pope Leo XIV called Sunday for an end to
the "pandemic of arms" as he prayed for "countless" children killed by
firearms and in conflicts globally.The US pontiff repeated his calls at
the end of the Angelus prayer for a ceasefire in Ukraine following a
Russian attack on Kyiv on Thursday in which at least 25 people died,
including four children.He also noted the recent shooting during a
school mass in Minnesota in the United States, in which two children
were killed."We include in our prayers the countless children killed and
injured every day around the world. Let us plead God to stop the
pandemic of arms, large and small, which infects our world," he said in
English.On Ukraine, the pope said he urged the world "not to give in to
indifference" and renewed his "insistent call for an immediate ceasefire
and for a serious commitment to dialogue"."It is time for those
responsible to renounce the logic of arms and embark on the path of
negotiation and peace, with the support of the international community,"
he said.
NATO says all countries to finally hit 2-percent spending goal-by AFP Staff Writers.
Brussels,
Belgium (AFP) Aug 27, 2025-NATO on Thursday said all its members were
finally set this year to hit the alliance's previous defence spending
target of two percent of GDP -- as they gear up for a far more ambitious
goal.The 32-nation military alliance agreed at a June summit in the
Hague to massively hike defence spending over the next decade under
pressure from US President Donald Trump.The mercurial US leader rammed
through a commitment from allies to cough up five percent of their GDPs
on security-related spending in a move seen as key to keeping him
engaged with NATO.That headline figure breaks down as 3.5 percent on
core defence spending and 1.5 percent on a looser range of areas such as
infrastructure and cyber security.The new target replaces the
alliance's former military spending goal of two percent that was first
set back in 2014.NATO said in a statement that all allies were now
expected to reach that goal in 2025 and that overall defence spending
across the alliance would top $1.5 trillion for the year.That comes
after a group of stragglers -- including Spain, Belgium and Italy --
hastily announced plans to reach two percent ahead of the Hague
gathering.The struggle to reach that figure highlights how difficult it
will be for NATO countries in Europe to achieve Trump's far higher new
target set this year.But officials insist European countries must make
good on their pledge if they are to have the capabilities needed to ward
off Russia.Numerous Western militaries and intelligence services have
warned that Moscow could be ready to attack a NATO country within three
to five years if the war in Ukraine ends.Washington -- which has
underpinned European security since World War II -- meanwhile insists it
wants to shift more of the responsibility for the continent's defences
onto European countries.The Pentagon is currently conducting a review of
its worldwide deployments and has warned it could look to scale back
its footstep in Europe to focus more on China.While some European
countries have lagged behind on defence spending, NATO members close to
Russia such as Poland and the Baltic states are already set to reach
five percent of GDP in the next few years.Poland was projected to be the
highest spending NATO country in 2025 at 4.48 percent.The United States
currently spends 3.22 percent of its GDP on defence, but makes up the
lion's share of the alliance's total expenditure in dollar terms.Poland
to lift defence spending to 4.8% of GPD next year-Warsaw (AFP) Aug 28,
2025 - Poland will increase its defence spending next year to 4.8
percent of GDP, its finance minister said Thursday -- near the five
percent being demanded of NATO members by US President Donald Trump.The
budget proposal came as NATO said all its members were set this year to
hit the alliance's previous defence spending target of two percent of
GDP.Poland has been a key alliance member on its eastern flank as
neighbouring Ukraine battles Russia's invasion launched in 2022."We are
committing the record amount of 200 billion zlotys ($55 billion) to
defence" in 2206, representing "over 4.8 percent of GDP", Finance
Minister Andrzej Domanski told journalists after a cabinet
meeting.Fearing a Russian threat, Poland has embarked on a swift
modernisation of its armed forces, spending billions on weapons, sourced
in particular from the United States and South Korea.In June, the
32-nation North Atlantic Treaty Organization agreed to massively boost
defence spending over the next decade under pressure from Trump.Trump
rammed through the commitment to spend five percent of their GDPs on
security-related spending in a move seen as key to keeping him engaged
with NATO.That headline figure breaks down as 3.5 percent on core
defence spending and 1.5 percent on a looser range of areas such as
