Storms on parade Kevin Roth and M. Ressler, Senior Meteorologists, The Weather Channel Mon Dec 11, 7:06 PM ET

A parade of storms is lined up from the state of Washington to Korea across the Pacific Ocean. Each system is forecast to impact the West Coast arriving 24 to 36 hours apart this week. Monday's storm heads inland overnight turning the rain to showers in Washington and Oregon. Snow levels are lowering from 4,000 feet to 2,500 feet Tuesday and 3,500 feet Wednesday as colder air moves in behind the storm. Showers and locally heavy mountain snow will continue overnight with the persistent onshore flow. A weaker storm will move in behind the main storm early Tuesday morning prolonging the showery activity another 6 to 12 hours.

Lighter showers will linger even behind the weaker storm Tuesday evening through early Wednesday morning. The next significant storm will arrive with wind, rain and snow during the early morning hours Wednesday lasting into Wednesday evening, and then the final system for this round will arrive Thursday night. From out of the central U.S., a weaker storm will move from the southern Plains overnight to the Great Lakes by Tuesday evening. A band of rain will precede the cold front from Michigan to the northern Gulf Coast. A few thunderstorms will accompany this expanding rain band and one or two of these thunderstorms from south-central Illinois to eastern Arkansas and northwest Mississippi could produce hail or damaging-wind gusts. Some wet snow will fall from northwest Iowa through central Minnesota Tuesday and eastern Minnesota, northern Wisconsin and northern Michigan Tuesday night. Any accumulations are expected to be light.

3 And say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against thee, O Gog, the chief prince of Meshech(MOSCOW) and Tubal:

8 After many days thou shalt be visited: in the latter years thou shalt come into the land that is brought back from the sword, and is gathered out of many people, against the mountains of Israel, which have been always waste: but it is brought forth out of the nations, and they shall dwell safely all of them.
9 Thou shalt ascend and come like a storm, thou shalt be like a cloud to cover the land, thou, and all thy bands, and many people with thee.(RUSSIA-EGYPT AND MUSLIMS)

Iran stirs up hatred with Holocaust conference
By Alex Spillius,2:13am GMT 12/12/2006

Iran's foreign minister questioned the right of Israel to exist yesterday at the opening of a provocative conference on the Holocaust. The two-day gathering in Teheran is being attended by dozens of international guests, including a British anti-Zionist rabbi, who will hear presentations debating the use of the gas chambers.The Teheran conference was attended by six members of Jews United Against Zionism. Some wore badges that had Israel’s flag crossed out.In opening remarks, Manouchehr Mottaki said: If the official version of the Holocaust is thrown into doubt, then the identity and nature of Israel will be thrown into doubt. If... it is proved that the Holocaust was a historical reality, then what is the reason for the Palestinians having to pay the cost of the Nazis' crimes?

The conference, Review of the Holocaust: Global Vision, was initiated by Iran's president, Mahmoud Ahmedinejad, who has described the killing of six million Jews in Nazi Germany as a myth and called for Israel to be wiped off the map. His remarks have caused grave international alarm at a time that Iran is feared to be developing nuclear weapons.In an address broadcast to the nation yesterday, Mr Ahmadinejad questioned why the West would not allow any investigation into the Holocaust. He is expected to address the meeting today.Earlier in the day the president faced the first protest since winning elections 18 months ago. Students lit a firework and burned his photograph in the audience as he delivered a speech at the Amir Kabir technical university.Up to 60 protesters chanted death to the dictator, the Islamic Republic News Agency reported. The president's supporters in the audience then shouted back, before his speech continued. There were no reports of arrests.

Israel, the United States and a leader of Iran's own 25,000-strong Jewish community condemned the Teheran meeting, which is believed to be the first of its kind sponsored by a state. Ehud Olmert, the Israeli prime minister, called it a sick phenomenon that shows the depth of the hatred of the fundamentalist Iranian regime.

The enlightened world must condemn this conference and the one who has convened it in the most determined manner, he said en route to Berlin to attend a conference where historians affirmed the accuracy of Nazi genocide data.Among the participants in the Teheran conference were six members of Jews United Against Zionism, who were dressed in the traditional long black coats and hats of Orthodox Jews. Some wore badges with Israel's flag crossed out.One of two rabbis in the contingent was Ahron Cohen, from London. He said: We came here to put the Orthodox Jewish viewpoint. We certainly say there was a Holocaust... but in no way can it be used as a justification for perpetrating unjust acts against the Palestinians. Rabbi Cohen is a member of Neturei Karta (Guardians of the City), a small global anti-Zionist movement which holds that the state of Israel cannot exist until the coming of the Messiah.

Jon Benjamin, chief executive of the Board of Deputies of British Jews, said: They are a fringe, but a fringe that detractors of Israel are making much of. The conference sits with Iran's agenda of demonising Israel, and linking Israel's existence to nothing more than a guilt trip of the Western powers.The Iranians claimed that 67 foreigners visited from 30 countries. They included the American
David Duke, a former Ku Klux Klan leader, and the French writer Georges Thiel, who has been convicted in France for spreading revisionist theories about the mass extermination of Jews.Many Iranians have admitted being embarrassed about the meeting, which followed Iran's decision to hold a competition for cartoons about the Holocaust in October. There are also elements within the Teheran establishment that are aware that it will only increase Iran's international isolation when it is also at odds with the United Nations over its nuclear programme.

Hamas wants 10 years to prepare for Israel's destruction
By Stan Goodenough,December 11, 2006

Hamas politburo chief Khaled Mashaal said Monday the Palestinian Arabs were willing to extend a 10-year ceasefire to the Jews and establish their state alongside Israel for now.The offer was a bid to relieve the Palestinians of the economic hardships brought about by the West's sanctions on the PA.During the decade-log truce, the Arabs would consolidate their state, after which they would be able to renew their onslaught against what would be left of Israel.While applauded by some as an offer of peacemaking, Mashaal's proposal is in line with the Islamic strategy of waging Mukawama (ongoing warfare) against its enemies.According to this doctrine, Muslims are permitted to sign ceasefires in order to strengthen themselves so that they can vanquish their enemies when the truce expires.What Muslim's are not permitted to do - and what PA prime minister Ismail Haniyeh made clear at the weekend that Hamas would never do - is allow a sovereign Jewish state to continue existing on any land that has been under Islamic control in the past.Islam teaches that to do so is an affront to Allah that brings his divinity into question and is therefore forbidden.

Israel downplays chance of conflict with Syria Mon Dec 11, 8:29 AM ET

JERUSALEM (AFP) Israeli officials have downplayed the chance of armed conflict with Syria, a day after a senior intelligence officer said Damascus was preparing for war with the Jewish state. Syria is constructing military apparatus to try and counter the supremacy of (Israeli) air, ground and naval forces, but nothing indicates that it intends to attack us, Deputy Defense Minister Ephraim Sneh told public radio Monday.A senior government official also said that we can see no signs of a nearing war with Syria.

The chief of parliament's influential foreign affairs and defense committee, Tsahi Hanegbi, told the radio: No one in Israel has precise information on Syria's intentions and we are examining all possibilities.The army takes into account these estimates and adapts them on the ground, he said.

On Sunday, General Yossi Beidetz, the head of the military intelligence research division, told a cabinet meeting that Syrian President Bashar al-Assad was preparing his forces for a military conflict with Israel.Syria has accelerated the production of long-range missiles and has deployed anti-tank rockets on its border with Israel, a senior intelligence official quoted Beidetz as saying, referring to the armistice line on the occupied Golan Heights.In a later statement, a spokesman said: The army does not have any information indicating offensive intentions (by Syria) on the border.

UWB gets approval in Europe
Wireless technology gets the green light and can be used in Europe as early as February By Nancy Gohring, IDG News Service,December 11, 2006

The European Commission's Radio Spectrum Committee gave the green light to UWB (ultrawideband), paving the way for the technology to be used in Europe as early as February.

The committee gave what's known as a positive regulatory opinion, which means the decision will now be formally adopted by the Commission and will then become binding E.U. law, said Mona Lund, a press officer for the European Commission, in an e-mail exchange. UWB is a wireless technology that can transmit data at 480Mbps and is designed primarily to move data over short ranges. Applications could include sending video from a computer to a television or photos from a digital camera to a computer. Lund could not reveal the restrictions that will govern the use of UWB in Europe, designed to ensure that UWB doesn't interfere with other wireless devices, but said that the Commission will publish the regulations over the next few days.

The committee was mindful of existing restrictions on UWB that have already been set in other regions of the world.

Globally harmonized products would of course benefit consumers, and we believe there is sufficient overlap between the UWB regulations in the U.S. and in the E.U. to encourage manufacturers to produce equipment that can be used in different regions, Lund said. Despite some historical objections from groups concerned that UWB could interfere with other wireless services, the 70 percent majority required to pass the decision in the Radio Spectrum Committee was easily obtained, Lund said. She expects the formal adoption procedure to be complete by early February after which member states will be required to adopt the measure as soon as possible and within six months. The U.S. Federal Communications Commission approved the use of UWB in 2002, but UWB products that comply with the industry trade group's certification process haven't yet hit the market. The technology has been controversial because rather than operating over a narrow frequency band, it transmits using very low power over a very wide swath of spectrum.

That raised concerns of interference in some wireless industries. UWB is expected to be used as a cable replacement. Developers of IPTV (Internet Protocol TV) products are creating UWB devices that can wirelessly send video from an end user's DSL (Digital Subscriber Line) router, for example, to a set-top box connected to a TV.

Mideast may save Dead Sea with Red Sea By SHAFIKA MATTAR, Associated Press Writer Mon Dec 11, 8:51 AM ET

SOUTHERN SHUNEH, Jordan - Officials from Jordan, Israel and the Palestinian Authority met along the shores of the Dead Sea to settle details of a study to save the shrinking body of water, agreeing to proceed with plans to draw water from the Red Sea.

The surface level of the Dead Sea the saltiest water in the world at the lowest point on Earth that is estimated at 1,200 feet below sea level has fallen about three feet a year in the past 20 years because of evaporation and allegedly the diversion of rivers by Syria and Israel.The Dead Sea and its surrounding has been the source of much human social history and it is linked to the three monotheistic religions Judaism, Christianity and Islam.In 2005, the three concerned parties appealed to the World Bank to coordinate financing the feasibility study. The World Bank have agreed and appealed to the donor countries.

Four donor countries — France, Japan, the United States and the Netherlands — have committed themselves to participate in financing the $15 million study. The study will look at the environmental and social consequences of transferring water from the Red Sea to the Dead Sea, Jordan's Minister of Water and Irrigation Mohammed Thafer al-Alem said Sunday.Geological experts warned that the drop in the water level would increase the earthquake possibilities. They also warn the Dead Sea will disappear in 50 years if current trends persist.The Israeli Minister of National Infrastructure, Binyamin Ben-Eliezer, said the study is an excellent example for cooperation, peace and conflict reduction.The Red-Dead Sea canal project, which is expected to cost more than $1 billion, would exploit the 1,320-foot difference in altitude between both areas.If implemented, the 248-mile desert area between the two seas would benefit from the fresh water to turn the region into an agricultural hub for the benefit of the three countries. A desalination project is also envisaged to provide drinking water for Amman. Israel and the Palestinian territories would also benefit from the drinking water.

Lieberman: Israelis Should Pledge Allegiance
By Hana Levi Julian (INN)

Strategic Affairs Minister Avigdor Lieberman declared at a Washington conference Sunday that Israelis Arabs and Jews alike should be required to pledge allegiance to the Jewish State. Lieberman, who addressed a group at the Saban Center for Middle East Policy, associated with the Brookings Institute, said Israeli citizens on both ends of the political spectrum need to learn that there are obligations as well as privileges connected with living in the Jewish State.Israel has the right to demand full allegiance from all its citizens, the Yisrael Beiteinu party chairman said firmly. He who is not ready to recognize Israel as a Jewish and Zionist state
cannot be a citizen in the country. This applies to extremists of the Neturei Karta as well as to the extremist factions of the Islamic Movement.Lieberman has repeatedly criticized Israeli-Arab Knesset Members for declaring support for terrorist entities committed to the destruction of Israel and traveling to meet with leaders in enemy countries, such as Syria and Lebanon.

Arab MKs who collaborate with the enemy and meet with Hamas leaders should be dealt with harshly, Lieberman said last month. Speaking in Israel's parliament, he demanded the government punish Knesset Members who incite and cooperate with terror and who sit in this house… who continue to freely meet with Hamas, with Hizbullah, and who go to make visits in Lebanon. In his remarks, which drew much criticism, Lieberman said such unauthorized meetings should be considered as collaboration with the enemy and treated as such: At the end of the Second World War, not only criminals were killed in Nuremberg, but also those who collaborated with them. I hope this will be the fate of the collaborators in this house.He added that Arab MKs declared Israel’s Independence Day as Nakba Day [Day of Disaster] and raised black flags. There is a directive on terrorism, according to which those who collaborate with it must face the law.Lieberman, who has been criticized by left-wing Knesset Members who slam what they refer to as his racist ideas, maintained that the U.S. government would never allow anti-American activities to be carried out by its government leaders.

It is unacceptable that a senator or a representative in the American house of representatives assist Afghanistan during the war and meet with Bin Laden and Al-Qaeda leaders, express his support for their war against the U.S. – and then be allowed to return to serve in Congress, he pointed out.Lieberman also said there were a number of misconceptions surrounding the idea of a Middle East peace agreement. Among them he noted these ideas: The notion that the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is the main fact of instability in the Middle East, the notion that the conflict is territorial and not ideological, and the notion that the establishment of a Palestinian state based on the 1967 borders will end the conflict.The leader of the increasingly powerful Russian immigrant party recommended separating Arabs and Jews in Israel altogether, based on the Turkish-Greek Cypriot model. In an interview published last month in the British-based Sunday Telegraph, Lieberman said it was the only way to achieve peace in the region.Minister Lieberman is scheduled to present his views to US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice in Washington on Monday.

South America to look at EU-type model
11.12.2006 - 09:24 CET | By Honor Mahony
Eu Observer

South American leaders have said they will set up a high-level body to examine the idea of setting up an EU-style regional union. Bolivia's president Evo Morales finished a two-day summit of the South American Community of Nations by saying that he hoped that a such an economic bloc could become a reality within five years.We don't want it to take as long as with the European Union - 50 years to create. I hope it can take us less. Three, four, five years, said Mr Morales, according to Reuters.We seek that South America be forever a region of peace that works to solve the economic problems of its historically abandoned majority,he continued.The leaders agreed to lay the cornerstone of the South American integration process with complaints that the current set up under the Community of Nations, covering 12 countries, means that there is no power to see through and implement decisions.

Let's admit it, we take decisions but we do not have the power to implement them, said Venezuela's Hugo Chavez.The study-group will be part of an overall office set up in Rio de Janeiro to look at regional integration, including even the idea of a South American parliament.South America is not the only region to consider an EU-type model. Africa has also created the African Union, which is loosely based on the European Union.

EU to choose Galileo seat despite technical delays
11.12.2006 - 09:28 CET | By Lucia Kubosova

EUOBSERVER / BRUSSELS - EU ministers are set to choose the seat of Europe's satellite navigation programme Galileo - an ambitious project to compete with the American GPS by 2011 - but a decision on private contractors has been delayed. Eleven countries - the Czech Republic, Slovenia, Germany, Malta, Belgium, France, Spain, the UK, the Netherlands, Greece and Italy - have applied to host the public body to oversee the programme dubbed the Galileo Supervisory Authority. The EU's transport ministers will debate the location of the supervisory body during a working lunch within a general meeting in Brussels on Tuesday (12 December).The move comes after EU transport commissioner Jacques Barrot admitted on Friday that negotiations with the group of eight private partners who will manage the Galileo system - originally planned to close in late 2005 - were still ongoing.

No one has an interest in seeing these talks fail, he said in a Brussels press conference, but did not say when the talks would resume.I think that even if there is a little delay in signing this concession contract, things are on the right track, said Mr Barrot.

The European Commission has launched an open consultation with stakeholders on how the EU should make the best use of the satellite navigation applications which will emerge once Galileo is completed, mainly in terms of the legal framework for the role of public bodies in its development.Brussels believes the system will bring new prospects to various commercial sectors which will eventually help to boost the economic growth and jobs and also improve the daily life of citizens around the world.The system is mainly supposed to be used for civilian purposes - such as the management of Europe's transport infrastructure - railways, roads and sea lanes - and will cost about €1 billion from the bloc's common coffers in the next seven-year budgetary period.

With around 30 satellites projected to be part of the system, it could offer services such as direction finding and search and rescue.These economic returns are many times higher than the costs of the system itself, Mr Barrot said.However, the commissioner recently sparked controversy by suggesting that Galileo's satellite data could be used for military purposes - an option which remains open he said on Friday.Apart from the Galileo seat, transport ministers will also debate the commission's proposals on cutting roaming charges and postal services liberalisation.

34 I tell you, in that night there shall be two men in one bed; the one shall be taken, and the other shall be left.
35 Two women shall be grinding together; the one shall be taken, and the other left.
36 Two men shall be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left.
37 And they answered and said unto him, Where, Lord? And he said unto them, Wheresoever the body is, thither will the eagles be gathered together.(Christians have new bodies,this is the people against Jerusalem during the 7 yr treaty)(Christians bodies are not being eaten by the birds).

MATTHEW 24:37-51
37 But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
38 For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark,
39 And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
40 Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left.
41 Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and the other left.
42 Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come.
43 But know this, that if the goodman of the house had known in what watch the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken up.
44 Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh.
45 Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his lord hath made ruler over his household, to give them meat in due season?
46 Blessed is that servant, whom his lord when he cometh shall find so doing.
47 Verily I say unto you, That he shall make him ruler over all his goods.
48 But and if that evil servant shall say in his heart, My lord delayeth his coming;
49 And shall begin to smite his fellowservants, and to eat and drink with the drunken;
50 The lord of that servant shall come in a day when he looketh not for him, and in an hour that he is not aware of,
51 And shall cut him asunder, and appoint him his portion with the hypocrites: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

Olmert says Israel among nuclear nations DEC 11,2006

JERUSALEM - Prime Minister Ehud Olmert listed Israel among the nations that have nuclear weapons in an interview aired on Monday but his office said the remark was misinterpreted.

Israel has a long-standing policy of ambiguity on nuclear weapons, refusing to confirm or deny whether it has them. But Olmert's remarks came days after incoming U.S. Defense Secretary Robert Gates said in testimony to a Senate committee that Israel was a member of the club of nuclear-armed nations.The U.S. and Israel suspect Iran is trying to develop nuclear weapons. In an interview with a German TV station aired Monday before Olmert arrived in the country, he was asked about Iran's threat to destroy Israel.Olmert responded that Israel has never threatened to annihilate anyone and added: Iran openly, explicitly and publicly threatens to wipe Israel off the map. Can you say that this is the same level, when you are aspiring to have nuclear weapons, as America, France, Israel, Russia?

Olmert's office said the quote was taken out of context, noting that in other parts of the interview, Olmert several times refused to confirm that Israel has nuclear weapons. Olmert spoke in English, which is not his first language.Israel's policy has always been to declare that it will not be the first to introduce nuclear weapons into the Middle East, without confirming or denying it has them.Foreign experts have concluded that Israel has hundreds of nuclear bombs and is the sixth-largest nuclear weapons power in the world.

Here we are again folks lukewarmers that say the world will end, they better read the Bible again the World will never end only the sinners will be destroyed and eaten by the Birds in WW3.

The Doomsday Code (LUKEWARMER ON END TIME EVENTS) DEC 11,2006

In this Channel 4 documentary Tony Robinson investigates the people with powerful political friends in the White House, who are trying to bring about the end of the world. Julia Bard reports.Revelation, the last book in the New Testament, is filled with bizarre, violent and terrifying images. Its origins are unclear and its content is controversial. Some say it is the work of St John but many others believe he could not have been the author. But whoever wrote it, described apocalyptic visions of plagues, famines, wars, devils, wild beasts and rivers of blood. It is so strange and complex that scholars down the centuries have continually reinterpreted its message and meaning.Today, though, a growing number of American evangelical Christians reckon they have cracked the code.

These End Timers believe that every weird word of Revelation predicts real events. Like a Hollywood sci fi movie they say that any time now the world will end. And when it does, true believers in Christ will be whisked up to heaven in an event called The Rapture while non-believers are left behind on earth to face famine, war, terror and destruction as the forces of good and evil fight to the bitter end.

Political implications

If this was confined to the personal beliefs of a few fundamentalists it would be of little significance but, says Tony Robinson, the leaders of the End Time movement are rich, well-connected and very powerful. Though the USA constitution enshrines the separation of church and state End Timers are frequent visitors to the White House. No one knows if George W Bush is an End Timer himself, but his policies are at one with those of the evangelical Right and his language is often apocalyptic, such as when he describes the war on terror as 'the epic struggle of good and evil.

Jerusalem

According to the prophecy, Jerusalem is where this final battle is to be played out. No stranger to conflict and violence, this city is the focus of End Timers' dreams of eternal paradise, because, according to their beliefs, this is where Christ will come back to earth. But first, they say, the Jews must return. End Timers believe that the establishment of the State of israel in 1948 was a fulfilment of the biblical prophecy and that since then 'the last days clock has been ticking.Many of them interpret the US government's policies on Israel and the Middle East from a biblical point of view. Before the war in Iraq, the USA supported a negotiated settlement in which Israel would return the Occupied Territories to the Palestinians. By 2004, after a torrent of criticism of the Roadmap to Peace, Bush's position had changed and now there is no call for a large-scale withdrawal from the West Bank.End Timers parade through the streets of Jerusalem and take large amounts of cash to illegal West Bank settlements to encourage the residents to entrench themselves more deeply on this Palestinian land. In Jerusalem itself, Jews are being bankrolled by Christian fundamentalists to reside in Arab houses. The End Timers think that Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon suffered a stroke (was removed from the scene) because he wanted to give back some of the Palestinian land.

Many Israelis are very worried about the kind of support they are being offered. One journalist says that this is not based on Israel's needs and that there is no support for peacemaking. On the contrary, the agenda of the Evangelicals is war, so as to fulfil violent prophecy of Revelation.Provocatively, some End Timers have joined forces with a fundamentalist Jewish group who want to rebuild the Temple of Solomon – touching on the ancient Jewish yearning for their destroyed Temple. But the place where they plan to build it has deep meaning for the three Abrahamic religions – Judaism, Christianity and Islam. The Temple Mount, where Islam's 3rd most holy site, Al-Aqsa (murderer) Mosque, is situated, is the spot where Muslim, Jewish and Christian believers think that God created Adam, Abraham prepared his son Isaac to be sacrificed, and according to his vision, Muhammed was carried on a winged horse.

Mainstream Christians in the locality are appalled. They say attempts to rebuild the Temple are inflammatory and threaten to unleash even more bloodshed in the Middle East.

Predictions of war

Could it be that this is precisely what they are trying to provoke, in order to hasten the end of days? According to End Timers, when the believers are whisked up to heaven those left behind will face the ultimate battle between good and evil. It will take seven years to count the dead, they say – the time of Tribulation, a hell on earth. Israel will survive, according to this story, but will have a sudden victory only after a long war. Some say this means nuclear war and they support the war in Iraq because they believe that will bring it closer. Megiddo is the Hebrew name for Armageddon: the town where this carnage will occur. For some End Timers, all this is big – very big – business. Tim LaHaye's Christian fiction series, Left Behind, has sold 63 million books, and movies of the books have been made by Cloud Ten Pictures. The internet is awash with websites which tell you how to prepare for The Rapture, and there are American shops to sell you everything you need to survive (for around $3,000) if you're unfortunate enough to be left behind.The concept of the Antichrist originated in Medieval times, and is not found in the Bible. Nevertheless these evangelical Christians believe that the Antichrist is 'walking among us right now', the incarnation of evil, luring people to his cause with false
promises of peace. For End Timers, the United Nations, whose role is to seek and maintain peace across the world, fits this description perfectly.

Undermining Africa

Now End Time beliefs are now spreading to Africa, with dire consequences. Uganda's President, Yoweri Museveni, is a born again Christian who is lionised by American End Timers.

An American preacher in the capital, Kampala, says that the answers to Uganda's problems are not political, economic or educational, but can be found in the Bible, which he describes as God's constitution for the planet.Newspaper editor Andrew Mwenda is appalled by these Doomsday preachers, who he believes are converting young people and diverting them from fulfilling their potential and pursuing their careers. He says: This country is on a highway to hell. Uganda was a model in Africa of AIDS education and prevention and the rate of infection was falling. Now Museveni is promoting abstinence rather than safer sex, the number of cases is rising.Teacher Julius Othieno describes children being taken out of school, and not taking medicine when they are ill, in order to hasten their death.

Revelation

What is the real source of these ideas that so many people attribute to the book of Revelation? Whoever wrote it sheltered in a cave on the Greek island of Patmos, probably a refugee from Roman occupied Palestine. He is also likely to have consumed the local hallucinogenic magic mushrooms. So rather than taking these bizarre visions literally, it might make more sense to try to understand them in their historical context. There are some 40 apocalyptic books from this era but this was the only one that made it into the Bible. If the author was writing about the hated Roman Empire, it could be that the seven heads of the beast meant the seven emperors. The mark of the beast could be the head of the emperor on the coins. The dreaded 666 very likely represented three letters indicating the Emperor Nero – representing letters by numbers was, and is, common in Hebrew. If so, instead of being a description of a world in chaos, it could be seen as a book of morality, optimism and faith.Let's hope the End Timers start to see it like that before their actions really do bring about the end of the world.

Moderate earthquake hits western Indonesia Sat Dec 9, 5:51 AM ET

JAKARTA (AFP) A moderate earthquake of 5.3 on the Richter scale has struck the northern Sumatra region of Indonesia but there were no immediate reports of damage, geologists said.The quake occurred at 4:24 pm (0924 GMT) and was centred 96 kilometres (60 miles) southwest of the Aceh provincial capital Banda Aceh and 30 kilometres under the seabed Saturday.The tremor was felt in Banda Aceh but there were no immediate reports of damage, Arief from the meteorological office told AFP.The Indonesian archipelago sits on the Pacific Ring of Fire, where continental plates meet, causing frequent seismic and volcanic activity.

Indonesia was the nation worst hit by the earthquake-triggered Asian tsunami in December 2004, which killed some 168,000 people in Aceh province.A 7.7-magnitude earthquake in July on the south coast of the main island of Java also killed more than 600 people.

Vietnam readies for typhoon Utor DEC 11,2006

HANOI (AFP) Vietnam is readying for the possible arrival of typhoon Utor this week as the toll of those dead or missing from severe tropical storm Durian crept up to 94, officials have said.

Prime Minister Nguyen Tan Dung has ordered ministries and authorities, especially along the central coast, to prepare for mass evacuations and to keep ships in port and tell those at sea to seek shelter.Dung also deployed deputy premier Nguyen Sinh Hung to the central region to oversee the preparations, the state-run Vietnam News Agency said.Typhoon Utor, packing maximum winds of 120 kilometres (74 miles) per hour early Monday, was barreling across the South China Sea after leaving at least seven people dead or missing in the Philippines.

Manila said Utor was the reason it postponed two summits on the central island of Cebu in the first half of the week, although other sources said the real reason may have been a terrorist threat.Forecasters in Vietnam said Monday it was too early to tell whether the typhoon would make landfall in Vietnam, lose strength or hit elsewhere.Severe tropical storm Durian had weakened from a supertyphoon that killed or left missing more than 1,000 people in the Philippines.When it made landfall in southern Vietnam early last week it killed 83 people and left 11 people missing while damaging 240,000 buildings at a cost of more than 440 million dollars, officials said.

Typhoon roars out of Philippines, 4 killed DEC 11,06

MANILA (Reuters) Typhoon Utor thundered out of the Philippines killing four people, including three children, and stranding thousands on Monday after high winds and waves tore up power lines and communication links in the archipelago.Utor, a category 2 typhoon with gusts of up to 150 kph (90 mph), was forecast to weaken to a tropical storm by Friday on a path that peters out south of the Chinese island of Hainan by the weekend, according to www.tropicalstormrisk.com.The National Disaster Coordinating Council (NDCC) said three children were confirmed dead, including a one-year-old girl whose house was struck by a falling tree in central Capiz province. Four were listed as missing.On the resort island of Boracay, the famous white sands were littered with debris after high winds tore up roofs and trees.Some people are crying because they are afraid and in shock, said Roselle Gallano, a waitress at a coffee shop close to the beach front. Many houses were damaged, some have been tilted.

The governor of nearby Aklan province said one person had been killed on Boracay and at least four were still missing.Authorities evacuated around 90,000 residents, most of them in Albay province, where more than 1,000 people are feared dead after Typhoon Durian wiped out villages in a torrent of landslides and flash flooding in late November.Utor, the fifth typhoon to hit the Philippines since September, did not directly hit Albay but the bereaved remain stranded in schools and makeshift shelters and the province is still without power.On Friday, the Philippines hastily postponed an annual summit of 16 Asian leaders until January, citing concerns the typhoon could wreak havoc at the venue on the central island of Cebu. Utor subsequently swept north of Cebu.The NDCC said over 500 houses were destroyed and electricity was knocked out in wide areas in the Visayas region.Storms regularly hit the Philippines. In one of the worst disasters in recent years, more than 5,000 people died on the central island of Leyte in 1991 in floods triggered by a typhoon.(Additional reporting by Karen Lema in Manila)

Firefighters were battling a blaze in state forest at Tawonga, near Bright, that is believed to have been lit deliberately and flames came within 50 metres of homes in King Valley, in north-east Victoria, as strong southerly winds forced fires back towards the hamlets of Whitfield and Cheshunt.On Melbourne's hottest December day for 53 years — 42.1 degrees — the anticipated loss of private property in the north-east and Gippsland was averted, but authorities warned several fronts were still likely to join and wind shifts could still produce erratic fire behaviour.

CFA deputy chief officer Graham Fountain said towns most vulnerable had been largely untouched, but none of the fires was contained and the threat was imminent.

This is just a two-day event in a three-month fight, and by Thursday we'll be facing high temperatures and northerlies again, he said.Ember attacks and spotting were keeping residents and CFA crews busy, Mr Fountain said.Police Chief Commissioner Christine Nixon warned the bushfire threat was extreme. We may lose lives, she said. We will lose more assets, but we will have done the best we can to protect people and this whole environment.Department of Sustainability and Environment state duty officer Andrew Graystone said that although little property had been lost so far, it's all very fluid at the moment we're in a changing environment.He said that the northerlies had not developed as strongly as expected, but fire activity had been fierce and was building. What we need to understand is, it's not whether the weather is cooler or hotter, the bush is so dry, it's going to burn, he said.

Fire crews would work through the night on asset protection.

The Princes Highway was closed between Camperdown and Colac in the afternoon after a fire raged through the stony rises. More than 160 firefighters were working to contain the Stonyford fire that was headed towards Pomborneit East near Lake Corangamite.

The cause of the fire is being treated as suspicious.A large support crew of 35 CFA and two DSE tankers, bulldozers and fire-bombing aircraft were involved.Bushfires threatened the rural districts of Germantown in the alpine north-east and Waterford in Gippsland.A bushfire was headed south-east about three kilometres from Germantown and a fire that was burning over 41,000 hectares was bearing down on Waterford.

Premier Steve Bracks warned Victorians the bushfire danger would be critical for at least two weeks. He is expected to visit fire-affected areas today.I want to really congratulate the 3000-plus people who are out there fighting fires on the front line, he said.Bureau of Meteorology forecaster Terry Ryan said rain was the only way the fires would be stopped.There's a front coming up Thursday. Some showers and thunderstorms are going to happen with that probably, and that will extend to the north-east on Friday. There is hope there.with AAP

Israel Agrees to Reopen Mt. Zion Talks with Vatican
By Hillel Fendel (INN)

PM Olmert will meet in the Vatican this week with Pope Benedict - two weeks after Israeli diplomats confirmed the reopening of talks over the status of church property on Mt. Zion and elsewhere. In a move that surprised observers, CatholicNews.com reports, Israel has agreed to re-launch negotiations with the Holy See over church status in the Holy Land that have been stalled since the Olmert government came to power.A year ago, Arutz-7 reported that a Foreign Ministry official admitted that a blueprint of an agreement with the Vatican giving it control of parts of Mt. Zion in Jerusalem also known as King David's burial site had been received. The proposed contract read as follows:

The State of Israel hands over to the Holy See the use of the Cenacle [the room of the event known as the Last Supper, above King David's tomb - ed.], of the access path to it, and of the spaces adjacent to it... It is the Holy See's intention to inform the Bishops - and through them the world's Priests - that the Catholic Church has been given the use of the Cenacle, inviting them to visit the Holy Place together with their faithful... The Holy See hands over this use of the Cenacle to the Custody of the Holy Land [which acts on behalf of the Holy See]... [which] will keep the Cenacle open from 6 AM to 8 AM for the celebration of the Holy Mass... Official liturgical celebrations of non-Catholic Churches can take place only upon prior written permission by the Custody of the Holy Land.

At the time, President Moshe Katzav was about to embark on a visit to the Vatican. In the face of increasing public pressure, he was forced to deny any plans to sign away the King David's complex in Jerusalem. It now appears, however, that this option has once again surfaced.AsiaNews reported late last month that Israel and the Holy See have agreed to hold negotiating sessions of their Bilateral Permanent Working Commission' in December and in January - after the Olmert Government had, in effect, declined to do so ever since taking office last spring... The news is being received with relief, and with cautious optimism, in Church circles.The paper reported that there were apprehensions that the protracted negotiations (begun on 11 March 1999) required by the 1993 Fundamental Agreement between the Holy See and the State of Israel, might be suspended indefinitely - with incalculable consequences, both for the Catholic institutions in Israel and for the bilateral relationship.

Church's Steady and Discreet Efforts Pay Off

It is not known precisely what caused [Israel's] sudden change of attitude, AsiaNews reported, though it is understood that the Vatican had never given up on its steady (though characteristically discreet) diplomatic efforts.

Furthermore, it has often been reported in the media that both the American Catholic Church and influential components of the U.S. Government at the Department of State, in the Congress, and in the White House itself have been encouraging Israel constantly to make sure it is faithful to its international commitments vis-a-vis the Holy See and the Catholic Church.

At present, since shortly after the Six-Day War in 1967, the Diaspora Yeshiva is located on Mt. Zion, and has long warned of the catastrophic implications for Israel if the deal goes through. This is an enormous issue that is being pushed through without any public debate whatsoever, Yeshiva Director Rabbi Shabtai Herman told Arutz-7 last year. Rabbi Herman explained that if the Catholic Church receives control of the area, just a few hundred yards from the Temple Mount and adjacent to the Old City walls, it will turn it into the international center for Catholics all
around the world and if the pope just gives the word, Christians will be flocking over here en masse.

Rabbi Mordechai Goldstein, who founded and still runs the Diaspora Yeshiva, officially known as Yeshiva Toras Yisrael, elaborated in a follow-up discussion with Arutz-7:According to their bible, the land is to return to the Christians, and 144,000 Jews are to return to Mt. Zion. So their plan is for them to take control of the site, and then to announce that they are holding a mass reenactment of the Last Supper, with [all types of religious rituals], and to invite millions of Christians to come to Jerusalem and celebrate.

He said that this means much tourism money for Israel, and that someone in the Israeli government is apparently very interested in making this happen.The King David's Tomb complex is a complex of buildings of some 100,000 square feet where David and Solomon, and kings of Judea, are said to be buried. It is certainly one of the holiest spots in the Land of Israel, Rabbi Herman said. We've already given away the Temple Mount and the Machpelah Cave, except for here and there when we're allowed in; now they want to give Mt. Zion away as well? For thousands of years, this area was almost always totally closed off to Jews. G-d gave it back to us in 1948, but parts of it were still in range and sight of Jordanian snipers and were not in full use. After 1967, Rabbi Goldstein founded the Diaspora Yeshiva here - and it became an island of holiness, the first yeshiva for baalei teshuvah [newly religious] in Israel; we were there day and night learning Torah. Rabbi Goldstein was almost prophetic in establishing this yeshiva at that time at that spot; destiny from above intertwined him with Mt. Zion.

Rabbi Herman said that the above plan is merely the first step of a larger plan to turn all of Mt. Zion into a Christian site. He explained that the lower level of the complex, containing many chambers, rooms, passageways and the like, has long been under the control of Israeli bodies such as the Lands Authority, and that half of the area was assigned to the Diaspora Yeshiva. MK Benny Elon (National Union), who served twice as Minister of Tourism, told Arutz-7's Hebrew newsmagazine, This issue was raised several years ago. When I was Tourism Minister, I made it clear to a representative of the Pope that we would allow them to use one room with a side entrance that would not bother the yeshiva. But under no circumstances would we allow the transfer of ownership. But they said they want ownership, and that the Pope sees this place as the second-holiest, after the Church of the Holy Sepulcher.

We have to be very strong and not give in to the Vatican on this.

Haniyeh says Hamas won't accept Israel
From Times Wire Reports,December 9, 2006

Palestinian Authority Prime Minister Ismail Haniyeh told thousands of Iranians at Tehran University that his government would never recognize Israel and would continue to fight for the liberation of Jerusalem. Making his first visit abroad since the militant group Hamas took power in March, Haniyeh criticized the U.S. for demanding that Hamas recognize Israel as a basis for renewed peace talks and before international aid to the Palestinians resumes. Haniyeh called Iran, a longtime ally of Hamas, the Palestinians strategic depth because they are bound together in their fight against Israel.

Merkel Says Germany Will Help Renew Middle East Peace Efforts
By Kenneth Wongdec 9,06

Bloomberg) German Chancellor Angela Merkel said she will use the presidency of the European Union next year to renew efforts toward securing peace in the Middle East. The so-called Middle East Quartet, consisting of the U.S., the United Nations,
Russia and the European Union, introduced a Middle East road map' in 2003 to revive talks for long-term peace in the region.

Germany will seize the initiative during the EU presidency, Merkel said in an Internet broadcast today.We believe that the Middle East Quartet should be revived and the European Union has an active role here. U.S. President George W. Bush said this week he would take the advice of an Iraq Study Group seriously.

The group said that progress in the Middle East depended on a sustained commitment to a two-state solution for Israel and the Palestinian territories, and resolving Israel's differences with neighbors Lebanon and Syria. I particularly support an extensive diplomatic initiative, in which Iraq would involve its neighboring states and therefore could make a contribution toward stabilizing the Middle East region, Merkel said today.

Shuttle lifts off in night launch

The launch

The space shuttle Discovery has lifted off from Cape Canaveral - the first night shuttle launch in four years. Discovery launched at 2047 (0147 GMT on Sunday), two days after poor weather forced a lift-off to be cancelled. Rocket flares from the shuttle were visible in the night sky across much of the south-eastern United States. The shuttle is heading to the International Space Station (ISS), which Nasa is racing to complete before the shuttle fleet is retired in 2010. This is the third shuttle mission in six months and first night launch since the Columbia disaster in 2003.While in orbit with the space station, Discovery astronauts will carry out three spacewalks and will rewire electrical systems inside the ISS.

Change of fortune

Cloudy skies earlier on Sunday cleared as night fell in Florida, allowing mission controllers to proceed with the launch. There were no reported complications on launch as Discovery soared away from the Kennedy Space Center. The curved ascent left a fiery trail in the Florida sky It quickly reached a speed of 6,500 mph (10,500 km/h) as it headed through the Earth's atmosphere. Acknowledging a message of congratulations from the ground, commander Mark Polansky replied: There are a lot of happy, smiling faces up here.Forty-eight hours makes a tremendous difference, launch director Mike Leinbach told the crew. Everything just clicked. Everything felt good today, he said later. Two days earlier the crew of two women and five men were seated inside the shuttle at the scheduled launch time of 2135 (0235 GMT), but low clouds prevented lift-off.

Rookies

A British-born astronaut, Nicholas Patrick, is among Discovery's crew.The mission may be one of the hardest yet for Nasa astronauts Five of the astronauts on the mission are going on their first shuttle flight. One of the seven, US astronaut Sunita Williams, will stay on at the ISS when Discovery heads home, taking German Thomas Reiter back to Earth. Nasa has described the construction mission as one of the most complex to date. At least 14 more missions are needed to finish the $100bn (£50bn) station.Discovery's flight is scheduled to last 12 days, with a landing targeted for 21 December back at the Kennedy Space Center.

Discovery's crew consists of Commander Mark Polansky, pilot William Oefelein and mission specialists Robert Curbeam, Joan Higginbotham, Nicholas Patrick, Sunita Williams and the European Space Agency astronaut Christer Fuglesang.

Christmas terror strike highly likely
By John Steele, Crime Correspondent
Last Updated: 1:36am GMT 11/12/2006 Telegraph

The risk from terrorists in the Christmas period is very high indeed and the struggle against Muslim terrorism will last at least 30 years, John Reid, the Home Secretary, said yesterday.Mr Reid echoed the view of MI5 that there are around 30 major terrorist plots under way and the terrorists only have to be lucky once.He told the GMTV Sunday Programme that an attempted attack over the Christmas period was highly likely, adding: We know that the number of conspiracies of a major type are in the tens — 30 or round about that.We can never guarantee that we will get 100 per cent success but we do get 100 per cent effort from the security services.Mr Reid said the current UK terror assessment posted on the Government's intelligence website was severe, the second highest level, one short of the level at which an attack is imminent.The Home Secretary said he did not think an attack was inevitable but added: The terrorists only have to get through once, as they did on July 7, for us to see the terrible carnage that it causes. Our security services have to be successful on every occasion to prevent that happening.

I try to walk the tightrope between being truthful and honest about the threat to the public but, on the other hand, to say we are doing everything possible to combat it and to try to keep our lifestyle as near as possible to the British way of life. Mr Reid added: When it came to the struggle against republican terrorism in Ireland and in the mainland here, that lasted 30 years, and there is no indication to me that this is going to be resolved any quicker than that.He suggested that it was important to resolve the issue of Israel and Palestine because it fuelled international terrorism.If terrorism is to be defeated here in this country, the whole community has to be united against them.The aim of the terrorists is to divide the community, to pretend that this is a war between Muslims and everyone else, when it isn't. In a funny way they reflect the views of the extreme Right of politics who argue the same thing — that the big division is between Islam and everyone else.It isn't it's between the terrorists and everyone else and only with that unity can we ultimately defeat them.The head of MI5, Dame Eliza Manningham-Buller, warned recently that groups linked to al-Qa'eda were recruiting teenagers to carry out suicide attacks and would use chemical, biological or nuclear weapons if they got the chance.

MI5 is monitoring some 200 groupings or networks comprising more than 1,600 individuals who are actively engaged in plotting or facilitating terrorist acts here and overseas.The cost of fighting terrorism has been illustrated by figures showing that the Metropolitan Police, the force which leads British police efforts against terror, spent £505 million last year on its Specialist Operations department.

SO includes the anti-terrorist and special branches, now merged, and squads protecting politicians, members of the royal family, diplomats and locations believed to be at risk, such as Westminster and Buckingham Palace.The Foreign Office has advised Government ministers, ambassadors and officials to avoid the phrase war on terror, and similar belligerent terms, as they risk angering British Muslims and generating tensions in the wider Islamic world.It said it wanted to avoid re-inforcing the terrorists world view of conflict between the West and the Muslim world by using language that, taken out of context, could be counter-productive.

Concern rises over possible use of polonium in a dirty bomb
By William J. Broad International Herald tribune.Sunday, December 10, 2006

Nuclear regulators in Washington and abroad are studying whether to tighten security on polonium 210 in case terrorists seek the deadly material for so-called dirty bombs that spew radioactivity, officials and diplomats said in recent interviews.The evaluation is based on longstanding fears about the possible terrorist threat as well as the polonium 210 poisoning that killed a former Russian spy living in exile in Britain on Nov. 23 and stirred public unease. The British authorities traced the risk of radioactive contamination to a dozen sites around London and commercial jets carrying more than 33,000 people. The poisoning was an apparent first that caught the authorities by surprise.Groups considering tighter controls include the Nuclear Regulatory Commission in the United States and the International Atomic Energy Agency in Vienna, which sets global standards for radiation safety.There are no sirens wailing, said a senior European diplomat familiar with the agency's polonium 210 reassessment. But there's a sense that we need to rethink how it is categorized, and thus controlled.

Officials and diplomats, some of whom spoke on the condition of anonymity because of the delicacy of the deliberations, said the agencies were monitoring developments in London and Moscow.

Meanwhile, private experts called tighter controls a potentially important step for public safety.It's very wise to put fairly strict limits on the commercially available amounts of polonium, said Thomas Tenforde, president of the National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements, a congressionally chartered group in Bethesda, Maryland, that advises the U.S. government on radiation safety.He called the amounts of polonium 210 now available on the commercial market not trivial and said the contemplation of tighter controls was prudent given the risk of terrorists using polonium 210, a radioactive material, in urban attacks meant to sow disease and death.Commercially, polonium 210 is used to make static eliminators that remove dust from film, lenses and laboratory balances, as well as from paper and textile plants. The radioactive material is sealed tightly to make it hard to remove.A dirty bomb uses ordinary explosives in its core and radioactive materials on the outside. If detonated in a city, it could scatter radioactive dust and debris that, in the worst case, might kill hundreds and sicken thousands of people.Nuclear experts say polonium 210 is one of the most toxic materials known to science. A tiny speck can kill.

Even so, experts initially saw the highly radioactive material as a poor candidate for dirty bombs because skin or paper can easily stop its distinctive rays.

It must be inhaled, injected or ingested to do harm. Moreover, its short half-life, just 138 days, means it loses potency relatively fast. On the other hand, its rays are hard to detect compared with those of most other radioactive materials, making it difficult to track.After the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, Washington looked anew at the deadliness of polonium 210 and decided that the material warranted more scrutiny as a potential weapon of terrorists.In May 2003, a team from the Energy Department, which runs the U.S. nuclear arms complex, and the Nuclear Regulatory Commission issued a lengthy dirty- bomb report that called polonium 210 one of 10 radioactive materials of greatest concern. The 10, the report said, should be given first priority for consideration of increased security measures.In November 2003, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission began an interim effort to track the sources. But it took three more years, until Nov. 8, before the commission issued a final rule spelling out the workings of its program, officially called National Source Tracking of Sealed Sources. The rule is to take effect early next year.

In theory, the system can track polonium 210 sources. But in interviews, commission officials said the reporting threshold was so high 16 curies, which translates in standard risk estimates into more than 5,000 lethal doses that it exceeded all known industry sources and products.A senior commission official, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, said his agency was considering lowering the threshold for tracking polonium by a factor of 10, to 1.6 curies. But its first priority, he said, was to get better reporting and security for materials even more dangerous for dirty bombs.

STEPHANE DION ON JUAN CARLOS

ON SAT DEC10, PETER MANSBRIDGE ON HIS SHOW ONE ON ONE INTERVIEWED NEW LIBERAL LEADER STEPHANE DION. AND HE ASKED HIM A QUESTION THAT I FOUND INTERESTING.

P-M - Who are the Political figures in our History, or any Countries History, that you admire?

S-D - Most of the figures that I admire when I was a child, I don't admire so much now. Because when your a kid you like the Emperer, you like Czar, Napoleon. And when your older you realize how owful it was that they did. So it was not because they were winners that I admired them so much. But there is a Man in the 20TH Century that I admire, but is not percieved as a great figure of the 20TH century. But did a big difference.

P-M - Whos that?

S-D - It is Juan Carlos, the Spaniard. Carlos, King from Spain. When he took power from Franco, he was advised to keep Spain under totalitarian regime. The argument is that Latin people are not good for Democracy. Keep Spain as it is, or otherwise it will be owful. And he did not listen to this advice. He helped Spain to become a democracy. This happened in the mid 70"s, about the same time as Portugal and Greece. These Countries started something that was unstopable. And you add the most important movement of the history of humanity. Democracy coming true in Continents one after the other, South America, Eastern Europe and so on, well I don't say it would not have been possible without him, but he made a difference.

P-M - Thats funny, I've never heard of anyone else point to Carlos of Spain.

S-D - I told him (Juan Carlos) that, he said no, no, no.

Now isn't this interesting Stephane Dion is praising King Juan Carlos of Spain for being the Father of World Democracy.

Lets see What Daniel says, after 10 countries join Revived Rome, #11 (SPAIN) comes on the scene and it goes worldwide.

SPAIN #11 IN THE EU

DANIEL 7:23-24
23 Thus he said, The fourth beast(THE EU,REVIVED ROME) shall be the fourth kingdom upon earth,(7TH WORLD EMPIRE) which shall be diverse from all kingdoms, and shall devour the whole earth, and shall tread it down, and break it in pieces.(TR BLOCKS)
24 And the ten horns out of this kingdom are ten kings that shall arise:(10 NATIONS) and another shall rise after them;(#11 SPAIN) and he shall be diverse from the first, and he shall subdue three kings.(BE HEAD OF 3 KINGS OR NATIONS).

Like the Bible says once number 11 comes on the scene, they will have a lot of clout in World, and become head of 3 counties sometime in the future. In the Eu constitution, they want to switch from the 1 country 6 month term, to a 3 country 18 month term.

This is how I believe this prophecy will be fulfilled. Spain and 2 original members probably (France and Germany) will be together as a trio for the 18 month term, Spain will be given all the say for the 3 countries and the EU itself, and I believe out of this 18 month term the World dictator gains power and gradually becomes the President of the EU, and signs the 7 year contract with Israel - Arabs and many.

If this 3 country, 18 month term is not allowed, I don't have any idea how Daniel can be fufilled then. Only the GOD of ISRAEL and the World JESUS knows, thank goodness, he fulfills the prophecies.
