As we see in Ezekiel 38 and 39 RUSSIA will be the head of the Muslim Army that marches to Israel in the future, so this is no accident that Russia and Iran are both testing missles.
Russia is now involved with the muslim countries bigtime like the Bible says will happen, because Russia will feed the Muslim countries weapons as well as leads the final March against Israel in the future.
EZEKIEL 38:1-23
1 And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
2 Son of man, set thy face against Gog,(RULER) the land of Magog,(RUSSIA) the chief prince of Meshech(MOSCOW) and Tubal,(TUBOLSK) (CITIES IN RUSSIA TODAY) and prophesy against him,
3 And say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against thee, O Gog (RULER), the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal:
4 And I will turn thee back, and put hooks into thy jaws, and I will bring thee forth, and all thine army, horses and horsemen, all of them clothed with all sorts of armour, even a great company with bucklers and shields, all of them handling swords:
5 Persia,(IRAN, IRAQ) Ethiopia, and Libya with them; all of them with shield and helmet:
6 Gomer( GERMANY), and all his bands; the house of Togarmah(TURKEY) of the north quarters, and all his bands: and many people with thee.(SUDAN, PARTS OF AFRICA)
7 Be thou prepared, and prepare for thyself, thou, and all thy company that are assembled unto thee, and be thou a guard unto them.
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.( LOTS OF MUSLIMS COUNTRIES MARCH).
10 Thus saith the Lord GOD; It shall also come to pass, that at the same time shall things come into thy mind, and thou shalt think an evil thought:
11 And thou shalt say, I will go up to the land of unwalled villages; I will go to them that are at rest, that dwell safely, all of them dwelling without walls, and having neither bars nor gates,
12 To take a spoil, and to take a prey; to turn thine hand upon the desolate places that are now inhabited, and upon the people that are gathered out of the nations, which have gotten cattle and goods, that dwell in the midst of the land.
13 Sheba, and Dedan,(Saudia Arabia) and the merchants of Tarshish,(Spain) with all the young lions thereof, (USA, CANADA, AUSTRALIA, NEW ZEALAND, UNITED KINGDOM) shall say unto thee, Art thou come to take a spoil? hast thou gathered thy company to take a prey? to carry away silver and gold, to take away cattle and goods, to take a great spoil?
14 Therefore, son of man, prophesy and say unto Gog, Thus saith the Lord GOD; In that day when my people of Israel dwelleth safely, shalt thou not know it?
15 And thou shalt come from thy place out of the north parts,(DIRECTLY NORTH OF ISRAEL ON A WORLD MAP IS MOSCOW) thou, and many people with thee, all of them riding upon horses, a great company, and a mighty army:
16 And thou shalt come up against my people of Israel, as a cloud to cover the land; it shall be in the latter days, and I will bring thee against my land, that the heathen may know me, when I shall be sanctified in thee, O Gog, before their eyes.
17 Thus saith the Lord GOD; Art thou he of whom I have spoken in old time by my servants the prophets of Israel, which prophesied in those days many years that I would bring thee against them?
18 And it shall come to pass at the same time when Gog shall come against the land of Israel, saith the Lord GOD, that my fury shall come up in my face.
19 For in my jealousy and in the fire of my wrath have I spoken, Surely in that day there shall be a great shaking in the land of Israel;
20 So that the fishes of the sea, and the fowls of the heaven, and the beasts of the field, and all creeping things that creep upon the earth, and all the men that are upon the face of the earth, shall shake at my presence, and the mountains shall be thrown down, and the steep places shall fall, and every wall shall fall to the ground.
21 And I will call for a sword against him throughout all my mountains, saith the Lord GOD: every man’s sword shall be against his brother.
22 And I will plead against him with pestilence and with blood; and I will rain upon him, and upon his bands, and upon the many people that are with him, an overflowing rain, and great hailstones, fire, and brimstone.(NUCLEAR BOMB).
23 Thus will I magnify myself, and sanctify myself; and I will be known in the eyes of many nations, and they shall know that I am the LORD.
Russia tests missile, official says U.S. missile-defense plans a threat to USA.
Front page / Russia PRAVDA04/23/2006 00:02 Source:
Russia test-launched a missile on Saturday and a military commander said U.S. missile-defense plans could threaten the strategic balance between the former Cold War foes, Russian news agencies reported. Russia's Strategic Rocket Forces, which are responsible for the country's ballistic missiles, successfully launched the K65M-R missile from a testing ground at
Kapustin Yar in the southern Astrakhan region, the ITAR-Tass news agency reported.
The commander of the forces, Col.-Gen. Nikolai Solovtsov, said the main purpose of the launch was to test "a uniform warhead for land- and sea-based ballistic missiles" and newly developed elements of a system designed to penetrate missile defenses, Interfax reported. Solovtsov said that plans for a U.S. missile-defense system "could upset strategic stability," the agency reported, suggesting that the test was part of an effort to ensure that Russian missiles are capable of foiling any U.S.
shield. He said the test involved optic and radar measurement systems that reproduce similar U.S. systems, according to Interfax. The planned scale of the United States' deployment of a ... missile defense system is so considerable that the fear that it could have a negative effect on the parameters of Russia's nuclear deterrence potential is quite justified," Interfax quoted him
as saying. President Vladimir Putin has boasted that Russia has missiles capable of penetrating any missile defense system, specifying that they can change their flight path on approach to a target.
Solovtsov said the system being tested Saturday would make missiles more difficult to spot and their trajectories more difficult to predict. Russia opposed Washington's withdrawal in 2002 from the 1972 Anti-Ballistic Missile Treaty in order to deploy a national missile defense, saying the U.S.-Soviet pact was a key element of international security. Putin called the decision a mistake that would hurt global security but not threaten Russia. The treaty banned missile defense systems on the assumption that the fear of retaliation would prevent either nation from launching a first strike, reports AP.

FLASH FLOODS LANDSLIDE IN INDONESIA
Like the Bible says it will be WORLD flooding like in Noahs day and the sea and the waves roaring (STORMS, TORNADOES, HURRICANES, TSUNAMIS). The EARTH being destroyed by the EARTH.
Is it not interesting that the weather service in the USA is called NOAA (NOAH). WORLD WEATHER like in noahs day, no accident they called the weather site NOAA.
GENESIS 6:11-13
11 The earth also was corrupt before God, and the earth was filled with violence.
12 And God looked upon the earth, and, behold, it was corrupt; for all flesh had corrupted his way upon the earth.
13 And God said unto Noah, The end of all flesh is come before me; for the earth is filled with violence through them; and, behold, I will destroy them with the earth.
LUKE 21:25-26
25 And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity;(CONFUSION) the sea and the waves roaring;
26 Men’s hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken.(Climate Change).
Flash floods, landslide kill at least 23 in Indonesia
Thu Apr 20, 1:07 PM ET JAKARTA (AFP) - Flash floods and landslides triggered by monsoon rains in Indonesia's East Java have killed at least 23 people, the state Antara news agency said as mopping up operations got underway. The disaster is the latest to strike on the island of Java, one of the most densely-populated in the world, where scores of people have been killed this year in rain-related catastrophes. Until noon (0500 GMT) we have registered 23 dead victims, with most killed in Bendungan subdistrict," the top government official in Trenggalek district, Soeharto, was quoted as saying Thursday.
In hilly Bendungan, 13 people were killed in a landslide that hit three hamlets there after two days of heavy rain, he said according to the report. Hermanto, who heads operations at the East Java search and rescue agency, told AFP he did not yet have a toll but had sent a team to Trenggalek. We are also readying teams from the surrounding districts to help efforts in
Trenggalek," Hermanto said. Flows of water, mud, rocks and other debris swept through Trenggalek district early Thursday and cut the main road linking it to the nearby town of Ponorogo, district spokesman Joko Setiono said, according to Antara.
Setiono said the floods, which hit six subdistricts as well as the district town of Trenggalek, were subsiding. In some areas, the flood had risen as high as two metres (6.6 feet), he said. Hundreds of houses along with schools and office buildings were hit by the floods after heavy rain swelled the Ngasinan River, Setiono said. East Java Governor Imam Utomo and other officials
toured the worst hit areas to express sympathy to the victims and see what assistance was needed, an official from the province's administration office said.
She said the governor was disbursing financial aid for the families of the dead as well as cash for local officials to buy aid including food. Waters had already subsided in Trenggalek town by afternoon and the military as well as local officials and residents were busy cleaning up, another local official, Suwanto, told ElShinta radio. The town's two-storey hospital was innundated, forcing 50 patients to be moved to the second floor, Suwanto said, adding that water had damaged most of the medical equipment.
Flash floods and landslides in Indonesia are not unusual, although monsoon rains typically hit a peak in January. In February, at least 19 people were killed in Central Java by floods and landslides. At least 12 people were killed in similar disasters in
January on other islands in the archipelago nation, while more than 150 people were also killed on Java in two separate landslides. Environmental activists have warned of more frequent disasters in Indonesia unless extensive areas are reforested on Java, which has been largely stripped of its original forests.
Heavy rains devastate half of Colombia; 70 dead since March
Tue Apr 18, 12:52 PM ET BOGOTA (AFP) - Pounding rainstorms in Colombia since early March have claimed 70 lives in flooding and mudslides that have devastated about half the country, the Civil Defense authority said. Fourteen people are missing and 165 were injured in
the rains that began on March 6 and are forecast to continue until June, Colonel Eugenio Alarcon, Civil Defense chief of investigations and operational development, told AFP on Tuesday.
Flooding, mudslides and high winds have affected 16 of the country's 32 departments and some 24,000 people, destroying 225 homes and damaging 2,000 others, he said. The worst disaster occurred in the Pacific coast port of Buenaventura, where an avalanche of mud and rock last Thursday buried a village, killing 31 people, according to the latest toll available.
On March 19 another mudslide killed a dozen Boy Scouts and their guide in the Nevados park in the coffee-growing western region.According to the official weather institute IDEAM, the rainy season would continue until June and is the first of two forecast for this year.

RUSSIA QUAKE
Major earthquake hits distant Russian Far Eastern region 53 minutes ago
MOSCOW (AP) - A major earthquake hit a distant region of Russia's Far East on Friday, causing unknown damage and casualties, a Russian emergency official said. The U.S. Geological Survey and Japan's Meteorological Agency estimated the quake's magnitude at 7.7. The quake struck at 12:25 p.m. local time in the Koryak region, nearly 7,000 kilometres east of Moscow and some 1,000 kilometres north of the largest city in the area, Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky, said Oleg Kotosanov, a duty officer with the regional emergency situations ministry.
The great San Francisco earthquake of 1906, which destroyed more than one-half of the city's buildings and left between 3,000 and 6,000 people dead 100 years ago this week, was estimated at a magnitude of between 7.7 and 7.9.

Quake destroys three Russian villages: report
Sat Apr 22, 1:23 AM ET
MOSCOW (AFP) - One of three earthquakes that hit Russia's remote northeastern Kamchatka peninsula almost completely destroyed three small villages, local authorities were quoted as saying by Interfax news agency. Inhabitants called the Koryakiya region's administration on a satellite phone to report that "the villages are practically entirely destroyed, even brick stoves fell apart," officials said, adding that rescuers flown in by helicopter were assessing the situation. The temblor measuring 6.1 on the Richter scale struck at 1114 GMT, at a depth of 40 kilometers (25 miles). It was located in Koryakiya, some 250 kilometers (155 miles) northeast of Il'pyrskiy and 6,300 kilometers (3,910 miles) north-northeast of Moscow.
The quake was the third that rocked the peninsula on Friday, according to the Kamchatka seismological service, the first measuring a massive 7.9 degrees and the second 6.2.
Thousands of people in Koryakiya, a sparsely populated district, were affected by the earlier quakes, but only four required medical attention, with about 50 more believed to have only minor injuries, the emergency situations ministry said. The Kamchatka peninsula, which is roughly the same size as Japan, is one of Russia's wildest regions, known for hot springs, 29 active volcanos and a large population of brown bears.
Strong earthquake strikes eastern Japan; 3 injured, no tsunami danger
Fri Apr 21, 12:09 AM ET
TOKYO (AP) - A strong earthquake registering a preliminary magnitude of 5.6 shook eastern Japan early Friday, injuring three people but there was no danger of tsunami, the Meteorological Agency and police said.
The 02:50 a.m. local time quake occurred 10 kilometres below the ocean floor, just off the east coast of Izu Peninsula, about 90 kilometres southeast of Tokyo, the agency said. In Ito City in Shizuoka prefecture, one of the most strongly shaken cities, a 64-year-old woman suffered minor bruises on her head when a wardrobe fell on her, local police spokesman Mitsuo Sugibayashi said.
In nearby Kanagawa prefecture, two women aged 67 and 52 also suffered minor injuries, police said, providing no other details. The agency said there was no threat of a tsunami - potentially dangerous waves triggered by seismic activity. The quake, felt most strongly in Izu Oshima, moderately shook buildings in the Tokyo region but didn't cause any damage.
Japan, which rests atop several tectonic plates, is among the world's most earthquake-prone countries. A magnitude five quake can damage houses and buildings in densely populated areas.

WORLD TRADING BLOCKS
In Daniel 2+ 7 we see the World into 10 Regions. I believe this means 10 WORLD TRADING BLOCKS THE WORLD WILL BE PUT INTO.
Right now theres way more then 10 blocks but i figure the world will change the blocks of the world to only 10.
DANIEL 2:40-44
40 And the fourth kingdom shall be strong as iron: forasmuch as iron breaketh in pieces and subdueth all things: and as iron that breaketh all these, shall it break in pieces and bruise.
41 And whereas thou sawest the feet and toes, part of potters' clay, and part of iron, the kingdom shall be divided; but there shall be in it of the strength of the iron, forasmuch as thou sawest the iron mixed with miry clay.
42 And as the toes of the feet were part of iron, and part of clay, so the kingdom shall be partly strong, and partly broken.
43 And whereas thou sawest iron mixed with miry clay, they shall mingle themselves with the seed of men: but they shall not cleave one to another, even as iron is not mixed with clay.
44 And in the days of these kings (10) shall the God of heaven set up a kingdom, which shall never be destroyed: and the kingdom shall not be left to other people, but it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand for ever.
DANIEL 7:7-8,19-20,23-24
7 After this I saw in the night visions, and behold a fourth beast, dreadful and terrible, and strong exceedingly; and it had great iron teeth: it devoured and brake in pieces, and stamped the residue with the feet of it: and it was diverse from all the beasts that were before it; and it had ten horns.
8 I considered the horns, and, behold, there came up among them another little horn, before whom there were three of the first horns plucked up by the roots: and, behold, in this horn were eyes like the eyes of man, and a mouth speaking great things.
19 Then I would know the truth of the fourth beast, which was diverse from all the others, exceeding dreadful, whose teeth were of iron, and his nails of brass; which devoured, brake in pieces, and stamped the residue with his feet;
20 And of the ten horns that were in his head, and of the other which came up, and before whom three fell; even of that horn that had eyes, and a mouth that spake very great things, whose look was more stout than his fellows.
23 Thus he said, The fourth beast shall be the fourth kingdom upon earth, which shall be diverse from all kingdoms, and shall devour the whole earth, and shall tread it down, and break it in pieces.
24 And the ten horns out of this kingdom are ten kings that shall arise: and another shall rise after them; and he shall be diverse from the first, and he shall subdue three kings.

DUST STORM IN CHINA
China Using Artificial Rain to Clear Dust By JOE McDONALD,
Associated Press Writer Tue Apr 18, 3:17 PM ET
BEIJING - Beijing will use artificial rainmaking to clear the air after a choking dust storm coated China's capital and beyond with yellow grit, prompting a health warning to keep children indoors, state media said Tuesday. The huge storm blew dust far beyond China's borders, blanketing South Korea and reaching Tokyo. The storm, reportedly the worst in at least five years, hit Beijing overnight Sunday, turning the sky yellow and forcing residents to dust off and hose down cars and buildings.
Hospitals reported a jump in cases of breathing problems, state television said. The government was preparing to seed clouds to make rain to clear the air, state TV said, citing the Central Meteorological Bureau. It did not elaborate, and the bureau refused to release more information. Storms carrying chalky dust from the north China plain hit Beijing every spring, but newspapers said this week's was the heaviest since at least 2001. The Beijing Daily Messenger said 300,000 tons of sand and dust were dumped on the city Monday.
That was "definitely one of the most serious pollution days in Beijing," weather forecaster Yang Keming said, according to the China Daily newspaper. "Small children had better stay at home during such days. The dust reached Tokyo on Tuesday, the first time that has happened in six years, said Naoko Takashina of Japan's Meteorological Agency. Dust from China was found in more than 50 locations throughout the country, she said. The Japanese agency warned of reduced visibility but did not say any health dangers were expected.
In South Korea, a light layer of dust blanketed the country, but no ill effects were reported. Rain was forecast overnight Tuesday, and the weather bureau said it should clear the air. The dust storms are expected to last through at least Wednesday in Beijing, neighboring Tianjin and a swath of north China stretching from Jilin province in the northeast through Inner Mongolia to Xinjiang in the desert northwest, the China Daily and other media said. That region is home to hundreds of millions of people. More storms were expected later in the week in Xinjiang and other parts of the northwest, according to news reports.
China's government has been replanting "green belts" of trees throughout the north in an effort to trap the dust after decades when the storms worsened amid heavy tree-cutting. Last week, the western Xinjiang region was hit by its worst sandstorm in decades, which killed one person and left thousands stranded after sand covered railways and high winds smashed train and car windows.

Wildfire Season Could Be the Worst Ever
By ROXANA HEGEMAN, Associated Press Writer Tue Apr 18, 11:41 PM ET
WICHITA, Kan. - This year's wildfire season could be one of the worst ever, with 2.15 million acres already burned nationwide this spring — more than five times the average, fire officials said Tuesday. Fires have been especially bad in Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, Arkansas, Nebraska and New Mexico. Fire departments say they are straining under the load with little relief in sight from windy, dry conditions.
The acreage numbers, released Monday, count only fires reported to the National Interagency Fire Center as of April 13. They do not include the hundreds of grass fires that firefighters in beleaguered states have been too busy fighting to file all the paperwork on. It is rare we burn this many acres this early in the fire season," Ken Frederick, a spokesman for the fire center,
said. More than 30,665 major fires have been reported nationwide this year so far, compared with an average of 17,288 in the same period, the agency said. The total area burned is more than five times the average 380,048 acres. Fires have killed 18 people and destroyed more than 1,100 buildings this year.
Texas alone has fought 1.3 million acres of fires, and more than 115,082 acres have burned in Oklahoma, the agency said.Grass is so dry in some areas it ignites 50 feet in front of the flames just from the heat. Fires are jumping four-lane paved highways, and the flames spread so fast trucks going 30 mph cannot outrun them, he said. We are seeing stuff that hasn't happened in the last decade," said Jim Schmidt, an emergency management director in Kansas. "We are seeing cedar trees igniting 40 feet in front of our fire trucks — exploding with no moisture in it.

GEOEYE SATELLITE IMAGERY TO EU
GeoEye to Supply European Commission with OrbView-3 High-Resolution Satellite Imagery
Imagery To Be Used To Monitor Crops To Support Subsidy Programs.
DULLES, Va., April 19, 2006 – GeoEye, the world’s largest satellite remote-sensing imaging company (OTCPK: ORBM), announced today its partner European Space Imaging (EUSI) received an additional contract from the European Commission to supply OrbView-3 high-resolution map-accurate imagery. The contract was awarded on April 5, 2006 and is valued at $2.15 million (EUR 1.8 million) over the next four years. The imagery will be collected by the company’s OrbView-3 high-resolution earth-imaging satellite. Together with its recently renewed three-year contract to supply imagery from GeoEye’s IKONOS high-resolution satellite, EUSI continues to be one of the largest suppliers of commercial satellite imagery to the European Commission.
The imagery will be processed and delivered to the European Commission by EUSI located in Munich, Germany. The contract requires GeoEye to begin imagery collections over 24 specific European sites to support the European Commission’s agricultural subsidy controls. The European Union is using satellite imagery as a tool to verify farmer’s declarations and claims for subsidies. In addition, the European Commission will use OrbView-3 imagery in support of national security related projects. The European Commission has been an excellent customer, and we are committed to continuing to meet all of their expectations,” said Adrian Zevenbergen, general manager for European Space Imaging. “For the past three years the European Commission has ranked GeoEye’s IKONOS satellite with a 98-100% performance success rate, so we are confident the OrbView-3 satellite will maintain this contract’s same demanding schedule and performance requirements.
“We are delighted that the European Commission has chosen to use imagery from the OrbView-3 satellite in support of agricultural subsidy controls as well as for security related projects. OrbView-3 has been used by several Asian countries as well as by the US Government’s National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency for similar purposes. This contract will now give us
an opportunity to demonstrate this satellite’s capability and value to the European community,” said Timothy J. Puckorius, GeoEye’s senior vice president of International Sales. GeoEye is currently building its next-generation commercial satellite imaging system, GeoEye-1, which will have a ground resolution of .41-meter panchromatic and 1.65-meter multispectral. When launched in early 2007, this satellite will greatly increase our capacity to collect a large amount of data within a short timeframe, which is ideal for monitoring crop subsidy programs.

GOLD SILVER BUY UP
Well now people are starting to horde silver and gold like the Bible says would happen in the last days. But as we read in the scriptures the Gold and silver will become worthless in the future. It will not save people while the judgements from God are happenning on the whole Earth.
EZEKIEL 7:3-19
3 Now is the end come upon thee, and I will send mine anger upon thee, and will judge thee according to thy ways, and will recompense upon thee all thine abominations.
4 And mine eye shall not spare thee, neither will I have pity: but I will recompense thy ways upon thee, and thine abominations shall be in the midst of thee: and ye shall know that I am the LORD.
5 Thus saith the Lord GOD; An evil, an only evil, behold, is come.
6 An end is come, the end is come: it watcheth for thee; behold, it is come.
7 The morning is come unto thee, O thou that dwellest in the land: the time is come, the day of trouble is near, and not the sounding again of the mountains.
8 Now will I shortly pour out my fury upon thee, and accomplish mine anger upon thee: and I will judge thee according to thy ways, and will recompense thee for all thine abominations.
9 And mine eye shall not spare, neither will I have pity: I will recompense thee according to thy ways and thine abominations that are in the midst of thee; and ye shall know that I am the LORD that smiteth.
10 Behold the day, behold, it is come: the morning is gone forth; the rod hath blossomed, pride hath budded.
11 Violence is risen up into a rod of wickedness: none of them shall remain, nor of their multitude, nor of any of theirs: neither shall there be wailing for them.
12 The time is come, the day draweth near: let not the buyer rejoice, nor the seller mourn: for wrath is upon all the multitude thereof.
13 For the seller shall not return to that which is sold, although they were yet alive: for the vision is touching the whole multitude thereof, which shall not return; neither shall any strengthen himself in the iniquity of his life.
14 They have blown the trumpet, even to make all ready; but none goeth to the battle: for my wrath is upon all the multitude thereof.
15 The sword is without, and the pestilence and the famine within: he that is in the field shall die with the sword; and he that is in the city, famine and pestilence shall devour him.
16 But they that escape of them shall escape, and shall be on the mountains like doves of the valleys, all of them mourning, every one for his iniquity.
17 All hands shall be feeble, and all knees shall be weak as water.
18 They shall also gird themselves with sackcloth, and horror shall cover them; and shame shall be upon all faces, and baldness upon all their heads.
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.
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.
It's a gold rushTAVIA GRANT
From Wednesday's Globe and Mail
Don Carlson has worked at Albern Coins & Foreign Exchange Ltd. in Calgary for more than a decade and, with the small exception of some pre-millennium panic buying, he's never seen so many customers carting off silver bars and gold coins. I've been in the business since 1991 and these are new highs for me, for both metals,” the general manager says. He's not the only one surprised by the growing appetite. In Ottawa, silver demand at the Royal Canadian Mint tripled in the first quarter. Kitco.com, a global gold dealer based in Montreal, has hired 10 new salespeople to take calls, while another distributor, based in B.C., is busy shipping coins across the country.
Rising geopolitical tensions and record oil prices are boosting the allure of precious metals, sending gold to its highest level since 1980 and silver to a 23-year high Tuesday. But it's not just exchange-traded funds or mining company shares that are popular. Canadians — and investors around the world — want the real, physical stuff. In Calgary, Mr. Carlson is seeing huge interest from middle-aged and older people who have cash on hand and want to park it in gold and silver. We're seeing a lot of new faces,” he said. “It's basically cash-and-carry. People like to have it in their hands.
Like other dealers, Mr. Carlson says silver demand is particularly strong. Sales of 100-ounce silver bars are surging and, at $1,692 a pop, many customers are buying several bars at a time. Clearly, silver prices that have already surged 58 per cent this year aren't deterring clients. Coins are also selling at a steady clip, he said. While Albertans may be the biggest buyers of gold and silver these days, interest is growing across the country. At the 98-year-old Royal Canadian Mint, investment demand for silver Maple Leaf coins more than tripled in the first quarter
while demand for one-to-10-ounce gold bars doubled, said David Madge, the Mint's executive director of bullion and refinery services. He expects silver sales this year will be the best in a decade.
You know commodities are hot when people are pawning their old gold and silver trinkets to the Mint. The Mint's recycling business, which buys old jewellery or silver flatware from individuals and turns them into coins and bars, has soared in recent months in lockstep with the run on commodities prices. Thus buyers of Canadian gold coins can't be certain whether they're derived from Aunt Bessie's wedding ring or come fresh from the mines. Kitco.com, the world's largest Internet-based bullion dealer, knows this better than most. It added about 10 salespeople to its
desk earlier this year to field floods of incoming calls.
Investor interest has soared for several reasons, said Jon Nadler, Kitco.com's investment products analyst. Demand in China and India is growing, while supply is dwindling. Worries about a decline in the U.S. dollar are mounting. Energy prices are soaring and tensions in Israel and Iran are rising. Those factors are prompting more people to see gold as a hedge in their portfolio, he said. It's very, very strong and across the board, and not just in Canada,” he said. “People are feeling more comfortable with holding gold than they had before.
In B.C., Martin Levy is managing director of the country's largest direct distributor of Maple Leaf coins. His company, Border Gold Corp., is seeing everyone from plumbers to bankers adding precious metals to their holdings. People in the trades, who have their own small companies, you see them buying and putting 5 to 10 per cent of their portfolio in gold,” he said. At the same time, “a lot of business people, with higher income, are putting high hundreds of thousands or even a million or two million into gold.
Gold prices soared $4.50 (U.S.) to reach a 25-year high Tuesday, closing at $623.30 an ounce, while silver jumped to $13.78 an ounce.

MANITOBA FLOODS JAVA VOLCANO
Volcanoes are happening during the tribulation period. as we read in Revelation 6:12-17
REVELATION 6:12-17
12 And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood;
13 And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, even as a fig tree casteth her untimely figs, when she is shaken of a mighty wind.
14 And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places.
15 And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains;
16 And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb:17 For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?
Indonesian volcano spewing smoke, lava
By NINIEK KARMINIASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER
MOUNT MERAPI, Indonesia -- The volcano that looms above his village is spewing smoke and lava, and scientists warn it could erupt anytime. But like many people farming the fertile slopes of Mount Merapi, Ismail says there is no need to panic.Merapi is part of my life, as it is all of our lives around here," he said Tuesday, as the 9,700-foot mountain rumbled in the background. "We know nature, and we are not worrying. Volcanologists watching Merapi, in the heart of densely populated Java island, disagree.
Aside from the visible signs of increased activity at its peak, sensors within the crater have detected a rise in seismic movement in recent weeks, and a major eruption is possible, they say.Authorities have been ordered to prepare for the possible evacuation of the thousands of people who live close to Merapi, which last erupted in 1992, sending out a searing cloud of gas that burned 60 people to death. About 1,300 people were killed when it erupted in 1930.
Mount Merapi lies about 18 miles from Yogyakarta, a city of 1 million people, More than 100 trucks are on standby to transport refugees, and emergency shelters have been prepared and stocked with food and medicine, Social Affairs Minister Bachtiar Chamsyah told reporters in Jakarta. Many people living around Merapi and the other 129 active volcanos in Indonesia - more than any other nation - believe that spirits watch over the peak and will warn
them when a major eruption is imminent.
Although most Indonesians are Muslim, many also follow animist beliefs and worship ancient spirits. Often at full moons, people trek to crater rims and throw in rice, jewelry and live animals to appease the volcanoes. If animals start coming down from the top then that is a sign for me to leave," said Ngadio, a rice farmer in a village on the dangerous western slopes of the volcano. "Hot clouds will always follow the animals' descent.
Sask. volunteers forced to stop sandbaggingUpdated Tue. Apr. 18 2006
7:21 AM ET CTV.ca News Staff
Dozens of volunteers on the Red Earth First Nation reserve in northeastern Saskatchewan have been told to stop sandbagging in the face of a relentlessly rising Carrot River. On Monday, the rising Carrot River submerged the road bisecting it, making it difficult for trucks carrying sandbags to get to the north side of town, where there are 80 homes and several other buildings.Phone and power lines on the Red Earth reserve were turned off. Boilers in the school and other public buildings were also shut down. Richard Kent, emergency co-ordinator for the Prince Albert Grand Council, said by late Monday afternoon eight homes on the reserve were flooded. Sandbagging continued at the south end of Red Earth, which is about 240 kilometres
northeast of Saskatoon.
Water levels in the Carrot River have surged to five times their normal volume, due to heavy rains last fall, deep snow over the winter and an early spring thaw. The flooding kept 1,000 residents of the reserve from their homes. They were forced to evacuate over the weekend due to rising water. There are about 370 evacuees in Prince Albert, and 442 are in Saskatoon,
mostly at the Field House. Glenna Chryderman, a Salvation Army volunteer, is one of dozens of volunteers trying to help the evacuees being housed at The Saskatoon Field House. Just to see those little children's faces, and the fact that these people have been uprooted. They have had to leave their homes. For me, I just think of how that would effect me and I think we have
to have some compassion," she told CTV Saskatoon.
Flooding in Manitoba
Flood-weary Manitobans are welcoming the latest weather outlook from Environment Canada, with meteorologists now forecasting 10 millimetres of rain in the Red River Valley Tuesday and Wednesday -- down from a previous forecast of up to 50 millimetres. Ten millimetres likely won't pose a problem in the flood zone around the province's Red River Valley. Provincial
officials also warned, however, that areas in western Manitoba now face the threat of flash floods in coming days as heavy rainfall heads toward that area. A flash-flood watch has been issued for the Riding and Duck mountain regions, with Environment Canada predicting as much as 70 millimetres of rain in that area beginning as early as Tuesday night.
There's some good news and some bad news," Alf Warkentin, Manitoba's chief flood forecaster, told reporters Monday afternoon. The good news is that the heavy rain for southeastern Manitoba and the Red River Valley is not going to happen. The bad news is that the heavy rain is going to happen in western Manitoba, areas west of Brandon and Dauphin. Environment Canada says most of the precipitation will travel along the Manitoba-Saskatchewan border and move north -- rather than hitting the southern part of Manitoba as was previously forecast.
Manitoba Premier Gary Doer said he is waiting to see what happens. I'm just going to wait and see and won't uncross my fingers until after the crests have left the Red River Valley," he said in Ste-Agathe after a tour of the affected areas. Meanwhile, there is little relief for the hardest-hit region around Morris, Man. -- about 60 kilometres south of Winnipeg -- where the Red River has crested.
Although Morris is surrounded by a dike, travelling in and out of the town has proved a challenge due to flooded roads.It's going to be a while . . . before levels fall," said Warkentin. "It's going to be a slow decline and the rain will serve to reduce that rate of decline on the Red River. So levels will remain very high and there will be access problems for probably another week or so or even longer."

Worst still to come in Romania and Bulgaria floods18.04.2006 - 09:51
CET By Andrew Rettman EU OBSERVER
Flooding in EU candidates Romania and Bulgaria is set to peak on Wednesday (19 April) and Thursday, local authorities predict, with the lower reaches of the river Danube staying abnormally swollen for up to a month. The Danube is currently flowing at 15,800 cubic metres a second - twice the usual for April and the heaviest since 1895 - inundating farmland and villages but with no casualties so far, press agecies say. Over 3,000 people fled the Romanian villages of Rast and Negoi after Dykes burst on Monday. Police also evacuated tourists from a hotel in the southern town of Calarasi.
About 100,000 hectares of Romanian farms and forests have been submerged, with authorities planning to channel water away from towns toward a further 26,000 hectares of open land. In Bulgaria, almost half of the industrial town of Nikopol has been flooded with problems also reported in Vidin, Fetesti, Ruse and Zabovanovo. The biggest worry now is the inflow of mosquitoes and the stink of sewage coming from the flooded houses," Nikopol civil defense head Georgi Linkov told Reuters. The floods first hit Serbia over the weekend after melting snows and spring rains in central Europe. Most of Belgrade has been kept safe by 250 km of dykes and barriers but the waterlogged defences are in danger of collapse.
The Serb towns of Ritopek, Veliko Gradiste and Smederevo have also tried to keep the river at bay with sandbags and basic equipment. The volunteers are tired. It's hard to keep up the tempo day after day," one Serbian official indicated. The water levels are higher than during the floods of 2005 and 2002, which killed dozens, but response units were better prepared this time around, BBC correspondents say.
AND IN THIS 2ND STORY, YES THERE WILL BE A QUAKE WARNING FOR CALIFORNIA, THEN A TSUNAMI WILL DO CALIFORNIA IN THIS TIME.
San Francisco faces big shaker (100 YEARS LATER) By Molly Bentley in San Francisco
The 1906 aftermath at 8:12 AM ON APRIL 18, 1906
Another magnitude 7.9 earthquake in the San Francisco Bay Area would probably produce much stronger shaking than the catastrophic 1906 event of the same size. The wider region should also expect thousands of fatalities and economic losses in the billions. These conclusions are contained in two reports released to coincide with the 18 April centennial of the great quake that destroyed the city and killed 3,000 people. The studies will be discussed at a special conference this week. Scientists say the next big quake - a magnitude 6.7 or larger - will likely come within 30 years. The first study, When the Big One Strikes Again, was commissioned by conference organisers and provides an estimate range of the death and damage toll for Northern California if an earthquake similar to 1906 hit the region today. The city was shattered, and what remained then went up in flames.
The other study, produced by the US Geological Survey (USGS), shows how shaking intensity would change if the San Andreas Fault were to rupture in a different place to 1906. USGS scientists believe they have been able to reproduce the ground motion that occurred 100 years ago fairly accurately, making it a useful model to estimate the damage caused by the next big quake. These studies allow us to model the shaking and fill in the big gap in the data," said Dr Greg Beroza, a geophysicist at Stanford University who helped create the USGS simulation. "We can apply the results to other large earthquakes.
One of its shaking scenarios suggests that out of the 10 million residents in 19 counties, a 7.9 earthquake could kill 1,800 and seriously injure 8,000 if it hit at night; and kill 3,400 and seriously injure 13,000 if it hit during the day. Total economic losses could reach more than $120bn. Daytime casualties are typically higher than night-time, when people are in homes that are less susceptible to collapse than commercial buildings," said Dr Kircher. However, the proportion of night-time deaths is raised slightly in San Francisco itself, where older homes are more vulnerable to collapse. Roughly one quarter - 800 - daytime deaths and almost a third of night-time deaths- 574 - would be in SF city districts.
The estimates are based on death by building collapse by shaking alone; not by fire, which could raise the death toll. Of the city's 400,000 residents in 1906, it is estimated that 3,000 died from both building collapse and the conflagration that swept the city immediately afterwards. While it was unlikely a fire that size would rage again, smaller fires were very possible, said Dr Kircher. Soft storey" architecture often features an un-reinforced garage.
Preparing for the 'Big One
We expect fires to contribute significantly to the total loss," he added. Adding in the cost of damage due to fire and lifeline infrastructure - such as highways - could raise the economic bill to $150bn. And this does not include long-term economic impact, the sort experienced in New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina. The total is 10 times the loss from the 1989 Loma Prieta Earthquake, a 6.7 tremor on the San Andreas Fault centred in a mountainous region 100km (60 miles) to the south of San Francisco.
The second set, referred to as M7.9, is based on a standard model of energy propagation from an earthquake occurring on the segments of the fault that ruptured in 1906; a sort of generic 7.9 quake. Death and damage estimates are lower in the MMI model than in the M7.9; 800 night-time and 1,600 daytime deaths for the region, and $90bn dollars in economic loss. While the population has increased 10 fold since 1906, when less than a million people called the greater San Francisco Bay area home, the number of fatalities does not increase proportionally in the recent estimates. Our knowledge of earthquakes and how they affect buildings have advanced quite a bit and our seismic codes have been advancing," said Dr Beroza, "but we're still talking about thousands of deaths. Will the public say that's acceptable?
Dr Kircher said that an important finding of the study was that vulnerable buildings - un-reinforced masonry, older reinforced concrete and "soft-storey" - made up less than 5% of all buildings in the region but would kill more than half the people. Fixing those buildings would cut our casualties in half," said Dr Kircher.
Moveable epicentre
The second USGS study to be presented to the conference offers scientists a re-creation of the 1906 shaking, and a how it might change if the fault ruptured other than where it did, 2km off the coast of San Francisco. The computer model draws on a new and highly detailed 3D geologic model of the Bay Area. While scientists do not know when the next big quake will come or where it will originate, they do say that a 7.9 quake is unlikely to mirror 1906. There is no guarantee that the next big one will begin exactly where the last big one began," said Dr Beroza. "It will be different and may not start in the same place." In the USGS simulations, a rupture at the northern end of the San Andreas Fault, with the same amount of slip, creates the same or greater shaking for San Francisco as it did in 1906; while an epicentre at the southern end of the northern portion of the fault, near San Juan Batista, creates considerably stronger shaking for the city.
This is due to variations in local geology and the fact that the energy from the rupture and seismic waves increase as they propagate toward the city. Things could be worse for San Francisco itself with a rupture that begins south of the city, than it was in 1906 when the rupture began very close to it," said Brad Aagaard, a USGS research geophysicist who ran the simulations. This, ironically, makes the original 1906 quake, with its epicentre near the city, a best-case scenario for San Francisco if a 7.9 earthquake were to hit again. But increased shaking in one area means less shaking somewhere else. Moving the epicentre to San Juan Batista produces more intense shaking for San Francisco, but milder shaking in the Silicon Valley region. The bottom line is that the next large event on the San Andreas Fault will differ in some ways from the 1906 earthquake, said Dr Aagaard. "We need to consider many scenarios in order to be prepared for such an event.
The 100th Anniversary Earthquake Conference continues through to 21 April in San Francisco.

POPES EASTER MESSAGE
Pope's Easter message calls for nuclear diplomacy17 April 2006
VATICAN CITY: In his first Easter message, Pope Benedict called for an "honourable solution" to the nuclear standoff with Iran, a truly independent Palestinian state, and global cooperation to combat terrorism.
The Pope, speaking on his 79th birthday, made his appeal for world peace in his Easter "Urbi et Orbi" (to the city and the world) message to nearly 100,000 people as he concluded the first Easter season of his pontificate. The Pope, who marks the first anniversary of his election on Wednesday, led a joyful Easter mass in a sunny St Peter's Square on the most important day of the Christian liturgical calendar, when the faithful celebrate Christ's resurrection from the dead.
In the speech, televised to millions of viewers in more than 65 countries at the end of Easter Sunday mass in the square, he listed his worries about problems facing the world, particularly in Africa, the Middle East and Latin America. Concerning the international crises linked to nuclear power, may an honourable solution be found for all parties, through serious and honest negotiations" he said in a clear reference to Iran, which announced last week it had become a nuclear power by enriching uranium.
The United States wants targeted sanctions on Iran that include a freeze on assets and visa restrictions. In another part of the speech, the Pope defended Israel's right to exist, a passage which appeared to be an indirect criticism of statements by Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad that the Jewish state should be eliminated. But he also called firmly for the establishment of a Palestinian state. May the international community, which re-affirms Israel's just right to exist in peace, assist the Palestinian people to overcome the precarious conditions in which they live and to build their future, moving towards the constitution of a state that is truly their own," he said in the part of his address dedicated to peace in the Middle East.
In other parts of the "Urbi et Orbi" address, the Pope expressed his concern over terrorism, as he has already done several times since his election on April 19, 2005 to succeed the late Pope John Paul. May the leaders of nations and of international organisations be strengthened in their will to achieve peaceful coexistence among different races, cultures and religions, in order to remove the threat of terrorism," he said. Mentioning Iraq, he prayed "may peace finally prevail over the tragic violence that continues mercilessly to claim victims.
The Pope also prayed that the spirit of the risen Christ bring relief and security to Africa, particularly the people of Darfur in western Sudan, who he said were "living in a dramatic humanitarian situation that is no longer sustainable. Chad broke diplomatic ties with neighbouring Sudan on Friday and warned that it might stop sheltering thousands of Sudanese refugees who have crossed the border to escape an ethnic conflict in the Darfur region.
This is the first Easter for the 1.1 billion member Roman Catholic Church since the death of Pope John Paul, who was in his final days a year ago and was only able to make brief appearances in the week between Palm Sunday and Easter Sunday.

CANADA USA CHINA FLOODED
Manitoba flooded, Indiana hail storms and destruction in China, Columbia also hit with landslides and storms.
Rising river forces evacuation of reserve with 1,100 people in northern Sask.
JULIA NECHEFF Fri Apr 14, 7:30 PM ET (CP) - Residents in parts of Manitoba and Saskatchewan were coping with major flooding at the start of the Easter long weekend as heavy spring runoff swelled several rivers. Wide swaths of farmland along the Red River in southern Manitoba were under water on Good Friday. In northeastern Saskatchewan, the Red Earth First Nation hustled to get out of the way of the threatening Carrot River as leaders ordered a general evacuation of the band of 1,100. Band and provincial officials, and volunteers from another reserve in the area, evacuated the most vulnerable residents first. Between 250 to 300 people - the elderly, mothers and babies, and pregnant women - were loaded onto buses and sent to stay in Prince Albert.
Chief Miller Nawakayas said remaining residents were to be moved out first thing Saturday morning and would be going to Saskatoon. About 100 homes along the Carrot are in danger of being flooded when the river crests, likely on Saturday, the chief said. The Saskatchewan Watershed Authority, they're predicting (flooding) as early as Saturday during the day and it
could continue on until Wednesday next week," Nawakayas said. The chief said an ice jam was complicating the problem. When he went to check the river Friday morning, the water level was only about a third of a metre from the top of the bank. In Manitoba, dikes were protecting towns along the Red River but many farms were already under water and accessible only
by boat. The Red crested at Emerson on the U.S. border on Friday morning, carrying runoff from North Dakota. Wind fanned rippling waves on what should have been fields. Federal and provincial politicians took a helicopter tour to get a bird's-eye view of the flooded valley.
In some places the river was up to 15 kilometres wide and covered more than 40,000 hectares of farmland. Part of federal Justice Minister Vic Toews' riding is submerged. The Conservative cabinet minister joined Manitoba Premier Gary Doer, Winnipeg Mayor Sam Katz and local civic officials for the tour. They said the flood of 2006, while bad, is not as devastating as Manitoba's flood of the century nine years ago. Certainly the extent of the flooding is not like it was in 1997 when both the premier and I flew over this area," Toews said."I'm very confident that the provincial municipal officials working together with the federal officials have got it in hand. I'm quite pleased to see the progress that has been made," he said. Katz said the Red is expected to crest in Winnipeg on April 20, but he thinks the city will be OK if Mother Nature co-operates.
He said his heart went out to his fellow Manitobans. A lot of us are not experiencing what they're going through but I'll tell you what after having the opportunity to see what's going on in southern Manitoba, coming from Winnipeg you have to feel relatively lucky right now and thank God for the floodway," the mayor said. While the politicians were sounding upbeat, Manitoba chief flood forecaster was issuing an ominous warning of storm clouds on the horizon. A major weather system is developing that could bring heavy precipitation to southern Manitoba on Monday and Tuesday, Alf Warkentin said. It does appear at this time that it could produce a significant amount of rainfall and it certainly has the potential to alter the flood situation quite significantly," he said. Areas that have crested could crest again, possibly at higher levels, so this is something we'll have to watching very, very closely." Warkentin said he's also keeping an eye on Saskatchewan.
The Carrot River, which is causing so much havoc on the Red Earth reserve, threatens The Pas in northwestern Manitoba and rural homes along the river, he said. Peak flows on the Red Deer River will eventually move into Manitoba as well.
Storms in China kill 21, destroy thousands of homes Fri Apr 14, 11:10 PM ET BEIJING
(AP) - Torrential rains in central and eastern China have killed 21 people and destroyed thousands of houses, the government said Saturday. Storms in the central province Hubei killed 11 people and forced 37,000 to flee their homes, China's Xinhua News Agency said, citing local civil affairs authorities. It said 11,000 houses were destroyed. In Jiangxi province in the east, rains killed 10 people and caused the equivalent of more than $100 million Cdn in damage, the
government said. Local authorities in both areas were distributing tents and bedding, Xinhua said. It said the central government has dispatched teams with more aid to the regions.
Tornadoes rip through eastern Iowa, killing 1 and damaging university
Fri Apr 14, 8:32 PM ET IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) - Tornadoes tore across the University of Iowa campus, ripped walls off a downtown church and killed a woman in a trailer outside of town. The U.S.National Weather Service said five tornados touched down in Johnson County on Thursday night, the most destructive carving a five-kilometre path of damage through downtown and the university. High winds, hail and at least one tornado hit Illinois as well. There was debris flying everywhere inside the house," said Melissa Fortman, an Iowa sophomore who huddled with friends in the basement of the Alpha Chi Omega house as sirens sounded.
She then decided to run upstairs for her homework just as the tornado hit. I couldn't go downstairs because there was debris and glass flying up the stairs, so I just hid in a telephone booth we have in our house and I just hid there crying," she said. Entire walls of the sorority house were gone and the interior of several rooms were visible from the street. Two cars had been tossed into a nearby ravine and glass, debris and tree limbs littered the neighbourhood. The twisters swept across eastern Iowa, with the worst damage from Iowa City southeast through Nichols, about 30 kilometres away, the National Weather Service said. We have a path in the Nichols area that's four to five miles long," said Maj. Dave White of the Muscatine County sheriff's office. He said the tornado hit farms and a trailer with a man and woman inside.
It blew it off the foundation and the trailer rolled and basically disintegrated," White said. The woman, whose identity was not released, died in the storm. Gov. Tom Vilsack declared a state of emergency for Johnson, Jones and Muscatine counties.In Iowa City, 30 people were reported treated at hospitals for storm-related injuries. Downtown, one-half the roof of St. Patrick's
Roman Catholic church was torn off. Store windows were shattered, some buildings were partially collapsed and homes and apartments were heavily damaged. Thousands of homes in Iowa and Illinois were without power but utility officials said it was expected to be restored by midday Saturday.
Illinois was hit by high winds and hail and the weather service confirmed one tornado touched down in Lincoln early Friday morning. We had lot of hail with this whole system, from Galesburg southeast to Champaign and Vermilion counties," said Chris Geelhart, a weather service meteorologist based in Lincoln.Some of it did get up to the size of baseballs."

IRAN ISRAEL A DEAD TREE
Well in these 2 stories we see Iran still wanting to destroy Israel and in the 2ND story Russia gives hamas money. Just like the Bible Says in Ezekiel 38+39 The Russians lead this Muslim horde against Israel in the future.
Iran President Again Lashes Out at Israel By ALI AKBAR DAREINI,
Associated Press Writer 2 hours, 57 minutes ago
TEHRAN, Iran - The president of Iran again lashed out at Israel on Friday and said it was "heading toward annihilation," just days after Tehran raised fears about its nuclear activities by saying it successfully enriched uranium for the first time. President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad called Israel a "permanent threat" to the Middle East that will "soon" be liberated. He also appeared to again question whether the Holocaust really happened.Like it or not, the Zionist regime is heading toward annihilation," Ahmadinejad said at the opening of a conference in support of the Palestinians.

Russia breaks from West with Hamas aid offer By Vera Kalian Sat Apr 15, 6:22 AM ET MOSCOW (Reuters) - Russia said on Saturday it had promised emergency aid to the Hamas-led Palestinian Authority, breaking with fellow mediators the EU and Washington which have stopped funding to try to force Hamas to recognize Israel. A Foreign Ministry statement said the offer came in a telephone conversation on Friday between Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov and Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas.Mahmoud Abbas highly appreciated the intention of Russia, confirmed by Lavrov, to grant the Hamas-led Palestinian Authority urgent financial aid in the nearest time," it said.
Russia is a member of the quartet of Middle East mediators searching for an end to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, along with the United Nations, the EU and the United States. The United States and the European Union have halted direct aid to the Palestinian Authority because it has not renounced violence, recognized Israel or agreed to abide by interim peace deals.Washington has barred American citizens and organizations from most business dealings with the Palestinian Authority.Israel has also blocked the transfer of customs and tax receipts.Larvov had earlier criticized the halting of aid, though he has urged Hamas to meet the demands of international mediators.
He said the only way to make Hamas meet international demands was to work with it, not boycott it. It was wrong to deny aid to the Palestinians "purely because in democratic elections they elected a government made up entirely out of Hamas members ... we are convinced that this approach is mistaken," he was quoted as saying last Tuesday. Russia is the only major power to have received Hamas on an official visit since its landslide win in Palestinian parliamentary elections in January. Palestinian Prime Minister Ismail Haniyeh said on Friday the "unholy alliance" led by the United States would not bring down the new Hamas government and warned of grave consequences if it did.
Iran President Again Lashes Out at Israel By ALI AKBAR DAREINI,
Associated Press Writer 2 hours, 57 minutes ago
TEHRAN, Iran - The president of Iran again lashed out at Israel on Friday and said it was "heading toward annihilation," just days after Tehran raised fears about its nuclear activities by saying it successfully enriched uranium for the first time. President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad called Israel a "permanent threat" to the Middle East that will "soon" be liberated. He also appeared to again question whether the Holocaust really happened.Like it or not, the Zionist regime is heading toward annihilation," Ahmadinejad said at the opening of a conference in support of the Palestinians. "The Zionist regime is a rotten, dried tree that will be eliminated by one storm.

WORLD QUAKES IN LAST 7 DAYS
There was major quakes in the death burial and resurrection of Jesus and when he returns the greatest quake in hsitory occurs. So all kinds of quakes should not be new to us. All major prophecies deal with Earthquakes.
1 KINGS 19:11-12
11 And he said, Go forth, and stand upon the mount before the LORD. And, behold, the LORD passed by, and a great and strong wind rent the mountains, and brake in pieces the rocks before the LORD; but the LORD was not in the wind: and after the wind an earthquake; but the LORD was not in the earthquake:
12 And after the earthquake a fire; but the LORD was not in the fire: and after the fire a still small voice.
ISAIAH 29:6-7
6 Thou shalt be visited of the LORD of hosts with thunder, and with earthquake, and great noise, with storm and tempest, and the flame of devouring fire.
7 And the multitude of all the nations that fight against Ariel, even all that fight against her and her munition, and that distress her, shall be as a dream of a night vision.
EZEKIEL 38:19
19 For in my jealousy and in the fire of my wrath have I spoken, Surely in that day there shall be a great shaking in the land of Israel;
AMOS 1:11
11 The words of Amos, who was among the herdmen of Tekoa, which he saw concerning Israel in the days of Uzziah king of Judah, and in the days of Jeroboam the son of Joash king of Israel, two years before the earthquake.
ZECHARIAH 14:1-5
1 Behold, the day of the LORD cometh, and thy spoil shall be divided in the midst of thee.
2 For I will gather all nations against Jerusalem to battle; and the city shall be taken, and the houses rifled, and the women ravished; and half of the city shall go forth into captivity, and the residue of the people shall not be cut off from the city.
3 Then shall the LORD go forth, and fight against those nations, as when he fought in the day of battle.
4 And his feet shall stand in that day upon the mount of Olives, which is before Jerusalem on the east, and the mount of Olives shall cleave in the midst thereof toward the east and toward the west, and there shall be a very great valley; and half of the mountain shall remove toward the north, and half of it toward the south.
5 And ye shall flee to the valley of the mountains; for the valley of the mountains shall reach unto Azal: yea, ye shall flee, like as ye fled from before the earthquake in the days of Uzziah king of Judah: and the LORD my God shall come, and all the saints with thee. (THIS IS JESUS OUR GOD RETURNING BODILY TO EARTH)
MATTHEW 24:7-8
7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.
8 All these are the beginning of sorrows.
MATTHEW 27:46-54
46 And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is to say, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?
47 Some of them that stood there, when they heard that, said, This man calleth for Elias.
48 And straightway one of them ran, and took a spunge, and filled it with vinegar, and put it on a reed, and gave him to drink.
49 The rest said, Let be, let us see whether Elias will come to save him.
50 Jesus, when he had cried again with a loud voice, yielded up the ghost.
51 And, behold, the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom; and the earth did quake, and the rocks rent;
52 And the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints which slept arose,
53 And came out of the graves after his resurrection, and went into the holy city, and appeared unto many.
54 Now when the centurion, and they that were with him, watching Jesus, saw the earthquake, and those things that were done, they feared greatly, saying, Truly this was the Son of God.
MATTHEW 28:1-7
1 In the end of the sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the first day of the week, came Mary Magdalene and the other Mary to see the sepulchre.
2 And, behold, there was a great earthquake: for the angel of the Lord descended from heaven, and came and rolled back the stone from the door, and sat upon it.
3 His countenance was like lightning, and his raiment white as snow:
4 And for fear of him the keepers did shake, and became as dead men.
5 And the angel answered and said unto the women, Fear not ye: for I know that ye seek Jesus, which was crucified.
6 He is not here: for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay.
7 And go quickly, and tell his disciples that he is risen from the dead; and, behold, he goeth before you into Galilee; there shall ye see him: lo, I have told you.
MARK 13:8
8 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be earthquakes in divers places, and there shall be famines and troubles: these are the beginnings of sorrows.
LUKE 21:11
11 And great earthquakes shall be in divers places, and famines, and pestilences; and fearful sights and great signs shall there be from heaven.
ACTS 16:26-27
26 And suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken: and immediately all the doors were opened, and every one’s bands were loosed.
27 And the keeper of the prison awaking out of his sleep, and seeing the prison doors open, he drew out his sword, and would have killed himself, supposing that the prisoners had been fled.
REVELATION 6:12-17
12 And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood;
13 And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, even as a fig tree casteth her untimely figs, when she is shaken of a mighty wind.
14 And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places.
15 And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains;
16 And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb:
17 For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?
REVELATION 8:5
5 And the angel took the censer, and filled it with fire of the altar, and cast it into the earth: and there were voices, and thunderings, and lightnings, and an earthquake.
REVELATION 11:13-19
13 And the same hour was there a great earthquake, and the tenth part of the city fell, and in the earthquake were slain of men seven thousand: and the remnant were affrighted, and gave glory to the God of heaven.
14 The second woe is past; and, behold, the third woe cometh quickly.
15 And the seventh angel sounded; and there were great voices in heaven, saying, The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever.
16 And the four and twenty elders, which sat before God on their seats, fell upon their faces, and worshipped God,
17 Saying, We give thee thanks, O Lord God Almighty, which art, and wast, and art to come; because thou hast taken to thee thy great power, and hast reigned.
18 And the nations were angry, and thy wrath is come, and the time of the dead, that they should be judged, and that thou shouldest give reward unto thy servants the prophets, and to the saints, and them that fear thy name, small and great; and shouldest destroy them which destroy the earth.
19 And the temple of God was opened in heaven, and there was seen in his temple the ark of his testament: and there were lightnings, and voices, and thunderings, and an earthquake, and great hail.
REVELATION 16:16-21
16 And he gathered them together into a place called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon.
17 And the seventh angel poured out his vial into the air; and there came a great voice out of the temple of heaven, from the throne, saying, It is done.
18 And there were voices, and thunders, and lightnings; and there was a great earthquake, such as was not since men were upon the earth, so mighty an earthquake, and so great.
19 And the great city was divided into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell: and great Babylon came in remembrance before God, to give unto her the cup of the wine of the fierceness of his wrath.
20 And every island fled away, and the mountains were not found.
21 And there fell upon men a great hail out of heaven, every stone about the weight of a talent: and men blasphemed God because of the plague of the hail; for the plague thereof was exceeding great.

Most recent earthquakes are at the top of this list.
1 KINGS 19:11-12
11 And he said, Go forth, and stand upon the mount before the LORD. And, behold, the LORD passed by, and a great and strong wind rent the mountains, and brake in pieces the rocks before the LORD; but the LORD was not in the wind: and after the wind an earthquake; but the LORD was not in the earthquake:
12 And after the earthquake a fire; but the LORD was not in the fire: and after the fire a still small voice.
ISAIAH 29:6-7
6 Thou shalt be visited of the LORD of hosts with thunder, and with earthquake, and great noise, with storm and tempest, and the flame of devouring fire.
7 And the multitude of all the nations that fight against Ariel, even all that fight against her and her munition, and that distress her, shall be as a dream of a night vision.
EZEKIEL 38:19
19 For in my jealousy and in the fire of my wrath have I spoken, Surely in that day there shall be a great shaking in the land of Israel;
AMOS 1:11
11 The words of Amos, who was among the herdmen of Tekoa, which he saw concerning Israel in the days of Uzziah king of Judah, and in the days of Jeroboam the son of Joash king of Israel, two years before the earthquake.
ZECHARIAH 14:1-5
1 Behold, the day of the LORD cometh, and thy spoil shall be divided in the midst of thee.
2 For I will gather all nations against Jerusalem to battle; and the city shall be taken, and the houses rifled, and the women ravished; and half of the city shall go forth into captivity, and the residue of the people shall not be cut off from the city.
3 Then shall the LORD go forth, and fight against those nations, as when he fought in the day of battle.
4 And his feet shall stand in that day upon the mount of Olives, which is before Jerusalem on the east, and the mount of Olives shall cleave in the midst thereof toward the east and toward the west, and there shall be a very great valley; and half of the mountain shall remove toward the north, and half of it toward the south.
5 And ye shall flee to the valley of the mountains; for the valley of the mountains shall reach unto Azal: yea, ye shall flee, like as ye fled from before the earthquake in the days of Uzziah king of Judah: and the LORD my God shall come, and all the saints with thee. (THIS IS JESUS OUR GOD RETURNING BODILY TO EARTH)
MATTHEW 24:7-8
7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.
8 All these are the beginning of sorrows.
MATTHEW 27:46-54
46 And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is to say, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?
47 Some of them that stood there, when they heard that, said, This man calleth for Elias.
48 And straightway one of them ran, and took a spunge, and filled it with vinegar, and put it on a reed, and gave him to drink.
49 The rest said, Let be, let us see whether Elias will come to save him.
50 Jesus, when he had cried again with a loud voice, yielded up the ghost.
51 And, behold, the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom; and the earth did quake, and the rocks rent;
52 And the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints which slept arose,
53 And came out of the graves after his resurrection, and went into the holy city, and appeared unto many.
54 Now when the centurion, and they that were with him, watching Jesus, saw the earthquake, and those things that were done, they feared greatly, saying, Truly this was the Son of God.
MATTHEW 28:1-7
1 In the end of the sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the first day of the week, came Mary Magdalene and the other Mary to see the sepulchre.
2 And, behold, there was a great earthquake: for the angel of the Lord descended from heaven, and came and rolled back the stone from the door, and sat upon it.
3 His countenance was like lightning, and his raiment white as snow:
4 And for fear of him the keepers did shake, and became as dead men.
5 And the angel answered and said unto the women, Fear not ye: for I know that ye seek Jesus, which was crucified.
6 He is not here: for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay.
7 And go quickly, and tell his disciples that he is risen from the dead; and, behold, he goeth before you into Galilee; there shall ye see him: lo, I have told you.
MARK 13:8
8 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be earthquakes in divers places, and there shall be famines and troubles: these are the beginnings of sorrows.
LUKE 21:11
11 And great earthquakes shall be in divers places, and famines, and pestilences; and fearful sights and great signs shall there be from heaven.
ACTS 16:26-27
26 And suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken: and immediately all the doors were opened, and every one’s bands were loosed.
27 And the keeper of the prison awaking out of his sleep, and seeing the prison doors open, he drew out his sword, and would have killed himself, supposing that the prisoners had been fled.
REVELATION 6:12-17
12 And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood;
13 And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, even as a fig tree casteth her untimely figs, when she is shaken of a mighty wind.
14 And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places.
15 And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains;
16 And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb:
17 For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?
REVELATION 8:5
5 And the angel took the censer, and filled it with fire of the altar, and cast it into the earth: and there were voices, and thunderings, and lightnings, and an earthquake.
REVELATION 11:13-19
13 And the same hour was there a great earthquake, and the tenth part of the city fell, and in the earthquake were slain of men seven thousand: and the remnant were affrighted, and gave glory to the God of heaven.
14 The second woe is past; and, behold, the third woe cometh quickly.
15 And the seventh angel sounded; and there were great voices in heaven, saying, The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever.
16 And the four and twenty elders, which sat before God on their seats, fell upon their faces, and worshipped God,
17 Saying, We give thee thanks, O Lord God Almighty, which art, and wast, and art to come; because thou hast taken to thee thy great power, and hast reigned.
18 And the nations were angry, and thy wrath is come, and the time of the dead, that they should be judged, and that thou shouldest give reward unto thy servants the prophets, and to the saints, and them that fear thy name, small and great; and shouldest destroy them which destroy the earth.
19 And the temple of God was opened in heaven, and there was seen in his temple the ark of his testament: and there were lightnings, and voices, and thunderings, and an earthquake, and great hail.
REVELATION 16:16-21
16 And he gathered them together into a place called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon.
17 And the seventh angel poured out his vial into the air; and there came a great voice out of the temple of heaven, from the throne, saying, It is done.
18 And there were voices, and thunders, and lightnings; and there was a great earthquake, such as was not since men were upon the earth, so mighty an earthquake, and so great.
19 And the great city was divided into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell: and great Babylon came in remembrance before God, to give unto her the cup of the wine of the fierceness of his wrath.
20 And every island fled away, and the mountains were not found.
21 And there fell upon men a great hail out of heaven, every stone about the weight of a talent: and men blasphemed God because of the plague of the hail; for the plague thereof was exceeding great.
