Many have stated that it is impossible to know whether or not we are living in the last
days before the second coming of Jesus Christ. However, below you will find dra-
matic proof that these are the endtimes. The proofs below defy coincidence.
Euphrates River to Be Dried Up

In Revelation 16:12, the Bible predicts that the Euphrates
River will be dried up to prepare the way for the kings of the east to invade Israel. This will happen at the time of the
Battle of Armageddon according to verse 16 of the same chapter. The Battle of Armageddon will be the final battle at
which time Jesus will return and fight on the side of the nation of Israel. Immediately thereafter He will establish His
kingdom and usher in His one thousand-year reign of peace. On January 13, 1990, the Indianapolis Star carried the head-
line Turkey Will Cut Off Flow of Euphrates for One Month. The article stated that a huge reservoir had been built
by Turkey. While filling up the reservoir, the flow of the Euphrates would be stopped for one month and a concrete
plug for a diversion channel built. These things have now been done. With this newly built dam, Turkey has the ability to
stop the Euphrates River at will. The conditions for fulfilling this 1,900 year-old prophecy are now in place.
In Revelation 9:15-16,
the Bible prophesies that an army of 200 million soldiers will launch a war which would kill the third part of men.
Never in the history of the world until our present generation has there been a power on earth that could field 200 mil-
lion soldiers. However, the late ruler of China, Mao Tse Tung, boasted in his diary that he could field an army of 200
million. The CIA World Factbook reports that in the year 2001, it is estimated that China has 200,886,946 men of mili-
tary age, and this number is growing by 10 million per year.
In Revelation 13, the Bible prophesies that
a world dictator will soon rule over a world government. He will cause all people in the earth to receive a number with-
out which they will be unable to buy or sell. We are seeing this prophecy fulfilled before our eyes in a most astonishing
way. Nearly every human being in the world now has been assigned a number. In America it is our Social Security num-
ber. In the past few years, we have seen this number extended to newborns. A child without a Social Security number
cannot be declared as a dependent on an income tax return. We have seen the emergence of electronic money, shopping
with credit cards, and many people urging the abolishment of cash. All of these things could not possibly have been
fulfilled until this present time. Only after the invention of the computer could such a worldwide numbering system be
administered.
Revelation 13:7 and
Daniel 7:23 prophesy the establishment of a world government. The term New World Order has become a prevalent
phrase in the worlds political culture. Mikhail Gorbachev made the term famous, and Pope John Paul II has referred to
it repeatedly. In the September 12, 1990 issue of the Chicago Tribune, our former president George Bush said, Iraq is the
first test for the New World Order. He emphatically stated that the Iraq War is Saddam Hussein against the world. The
United Nations troops are continually referred to as the multi-national forces. The decision has been made to establish
an interdependent community of nations that will rule the world under United Nations authority. The Bible says that
this will lead us into a great world government. The formation of this government is at hand.

Is it coincidental that all of these major prophecies pertaining to the last times are being fulfilled simultaneously?
China Goes to War
Worldwide Numbering System Predicted
The Emergence of a New World Order
or Divine Providence?
Hardly.

lowed by a Q & A session! From there, its
on to Israel!
In Israel:
We will stand on the Mount of Olives
where Jesus will stand when He returns.
Visit the Temple Mount itself where the
Third Temple will soon be built. See the
cornerstone intended for the rebuilding of
the Third Temple. At the Temple Institute
we will see the vessels and the garments
already prepared for resumption of temple
worship. Visit the Garden Tomb and the
Garden of Gethsemane. See the site of
the coming Battle of Armageddon. Visit
Judean settlements where Jesus prophesied
great tribulation will come in the near
future (Matthew 24:15-21). Sing your way
across the Sea of Galilee
on a boat. Imagine your-

tells us to study to show ourselves
approved unto God so that we
can rightly divide the word of
truth (II Timothy 2:15). The word
of God is the seed that, when
planted in the human heart, can
produce eternal life. Lets pause
for a word of caution. We dont
need to know everything about
everything before we can witness.
None of us ever would. Some of
the most effective soul winners
are new converts. Most of us sim-
ply need to share what we already
know. The most important thing
about soul winning is to do it!
It is true, however, that the
more skillful we are in the word
of God, the more effective we can
be. So we should study to show
ourselves approved. But you dont
have to have a degree in theol-
ogy to win the lost. Many souls
are being won today by people
who know very little. They simply
share Gods word by video, book
or brochure. Hundreds are being
won in this way.
Many of us are looking for
some new magic method to win
the lost to Jesus. Lets face it. We
will never improve on the method
given to us by the master soul
winnerJesus Christ. He said,
Go ye therefore and teach all
nations He said that if we sow
bountifully we will reap bounti-
fully.
Prophecy is being fulfilled!
Time is running out! The hour is
urgent! We have our commission
from our commander-in-chief:
TEACH! TEACH! TEACH! Just
do it!
ENDTIME MINISTRIES
STATEMENT OF FAITH
WE BELIEVE that the Bible is the inspired Word
of God, that Jesus Christ is the Savior of the world,
and that He will come again to establish a kindgom that
shall never be destroyed (Daniel 2:44). Those who are
born again (John 3:3-5) will have eternal life and rule as
kings and priests with Christ forever.
WHAT IS ENDTIME MAGAZINE?
In 1968, Irvin Baxter discovered the United States
and other modern nations in the Bible. He also found
the Berlin Wall in the Bible and that one day it was to be
torn down, reuniting Germany, and that event would be
the catalyst to spark an international movement called
the New World Order. These things have now come
to pass.
Irvin Baxter, a Pentecostal minister, began Endtime
Ministries in 1986 when he wrote A Message For The
President, a book explaining the major prophecies of the
Bible which he had been teaching since 1968.
After the fall of the Berlin Wall, prophetic fulllment
accelerated rapidly. The decision was made to launch
ENDTIME. The purpose of the magazine is to explain the
prophecies of the Bible and to show that they are now
being fullled in intricate detail.
Articles focus on the soon return of Jesus Christ, the
truth of the Bible, and the need for salvation. ENDTIME
does not deal with doctrinal controversies, as valid as
they may be. This will be left to other publications.

PERSPECTIVE
W
e who follow Bible
prophecy, pay so much
attention to what hap-
pens in the Middle East. Why?
Because we are so close to the
beginning of the final seven years,
to Armageddon, and to the Second
Coming of Jesus Christ. Everything
that is happening in the Middle
East right now is moving us toward
the endgame as it is spelled out in
the prophecies of the Bible. That is
why it is so important to be keenly
aware that prophetic fulfillment is
moving steadily forward.
What should our response be as
we see the converging of the many
prophecies of the Bible? Should
we be seized by fear? No. If we are
born again, there is no reason to
fear. As the Apostle Paul said, For
to me to live is Christ, and to die is
gain (Philippians 1:21).
But urgency? Absolutely! Know-
ing the nearness of the Second
Coming of Jesus, Christians should
have the motivation of a nation
on a war footing. But what should
we be doing? After all, motivation
without direction produces noth-
ing but frustration.
We must fulfill the great com-
mission that Jesus gave us: Go ye
therefore, and teach all nations.
Teach them. Its our mission.
The Christians of the endtime
are described in prophecy: the
people that do know their God
shall be strong, and do exploits.
And they that understand among
the people shall instruct many
(Daniel 11:32-33). Thats talking
about you! Thats talking about me!
Thats talking about right now!

Bring on the RFID tags
If RFID tags truly are the mark
of the beast, why should we com-
bat it? I mean, if these are the end-
times shouldnt we be rejoicing
and praying for our Lords return?
If it was prophesied in the Bible, it
has to come true, so why fight it?
I for one will be content to let it
happen and keep my eyes toward
the heavens waiting for Jesus to
come get me. -R.P. Brooksbank
REPLY: You are right when you
say that the mark of the beast
is inevitable. However, it is not
inevitable for everybody, every-
where. We know this because the
Antichrist will still be fighting wars
on a national scale during the final
three and one-half years before
Armageddon (Daniel 11:40-44).
If we can be one of the nations
that resist the program of the
Antichrist, then America could
serve as a base for world evange-
lism during the last times.
Mental challenge for Irvin &
Jamie
I am a regular listener and am
fascinated by many of Irvins the-
ories. I am impressed with his
intelligence and sense of logic.
I do have a concern, though. It
would appear that you believe in
the old adage The end justifies
the means.
I listened the other day to the
interview with Jamie Brendan.
The information was good, valu-
able, timely and important. What
I found insulting was the fact that
Irvin Baxter thinks his listeners
are so mentally challenged that
they cant figure out that Jamie
Brendan and he are one.
Give me a break! If youre going
to pull one over on people, youve
got to think of ALL the angles.
You covered the voice reasonably
well. It wasnt that. Its the fact
that Jamie and Irvin talk in exactly
the same manner. They use the
same inflections and verbiage.
So, heres the problem. Youve
pulled one scam on your listen-
ers. What are the odds that you
havent and wont continue to pull
others? How do I know youre
not dishonest in other areas? Im
not just throwing accusations. Im
seriously worried about sending
money to an organization that I
cannot trust.
I hate this feeling. I dont
like doubting Irvins integrity. I
havent sent much money in the
past, and I dont have much left-
over after I tithe, so I have to be
as cautious as I can with what little
I have to give.
Please prayerfully consider being
upfront and honest with your lis-
teners. -M.P. Krieg, Sr.
REPLY: Im sorry that you mis-
trust us. If we have somehow
caused that, we are sorry.
Here are the facts. Things are
exactly the way we say they are.
Jamie Brendan is a fictitious name
that we use to protect a per-
son who is privy to information
from high sources. And no, Jamie
Brendan is not Irvin Baxter.
Wheres the wall?
In your book, China War and the
Third Temple, it is stated that the
fall of the Berlin Wall is predicted
in the Bible but no biblical refer-
ence is given. -C.A. Huff
REPLY: Lesson 2 of our
Understanding the Endtime Level
1 series explains the prophecy of
the fall of the Berlin Wall. This
prophecy was included in my first
book, A Message for the President,
published in 1986. The Berlin Wall
came down three years later. To
give a complete explanation in the
short space we have here would
be impossible. In a nutshell, the
seven-headed ten-horned beast of
Revelation 13:1-3 represents the
endtime world government of the
Antichrist. The prophecy states
that one of the beasts seven heads
would be wounded to death, but
that the deadly wound would
be healed. In Understanding the
Endtime we prove that one of the
seven heads was Hitlers Third
Reich. When Hitler was defeat-
ed, Germany was cut in two in
an effort to stop her war-making
tendencies. This was the deadly
wound. The healing of the deadly
wound happened when the Berlin
Wall fell and the two Germanys
were reunited.
Observation
I want to make a point clear.
I want to reply to a letter, which
labeled Dr. Irvin Baxter, the editor
of this magazine, as someone try-
ing to make money and leave. I am
on their mailing and have received
two publications free of charge.
In fact, they spend their personal
money in shipping it down to me
in Nigeria.

I personally disagree with that
view. Wherever it came from,
Endtime doesnt compel you to
believe. All it does is give the facts
and lets you be the judge. Keep up
the good work, brethren. On that
day a crown of glory will be yours.
Amen. -Jeremiah A., Nigeria
REPLY: Thank you for your com-
ments. And for the record, Im
not a doctor. Im not even a nurse
yet.
Gog & Magog: Ezekiel vs.
Revelation
I know that you teach Ezekiel
38-39 is a parallel scripture with
Matthew 24 as well as the vials,
trumpets and seals pertaining to
the Battle of Armageddon. I see
another scripture in Revelation 20
concerning Gog and Magog after
the 1,000-year reign of Christ.
Satan is released to deceive the
nations once again, gathering the
people from the four corners of
the earth to battle.
I dont understand how so many
people can once again follow Satan
after living under the rule of Jesus
for so long, knowing the devasta-
tion that he caused humanity for
the first 6,000 years of human
history.
I am a long time listener and
appreciate the work God is doing
through your ministry. -K. Stultz
REPLY: I agree with you. I too
cannot understand how so many
people will be deceived after the
millennium. On the other hand,
I dont understand how so many
people are being deceived right
now. We have such detailed
prophecies proving that Jesus is
the Messiah. Yet most of our
world has not yet embraced Him.
Furthermore, a high percentage of
those who claim to embrace Him
dont really follow His teachings.
There is another factor that can-
not be ignored. Satan is the god of
this world. Scripture teaches that
the gifts and callings of God are
without repentance. This explains
why Satan will still be able to
deceive the world again. The only
thing that finally breaks that hold
is his permanent destruction.
Lambs Book of Life
The end of Revelation 14 speaks
of two angels. Each has a sickle,
one to harvest believers and one
to harvest nonbelievers, but after
this the Battle of Armageddon
takes place. Chronologically this
doesnt seem to make sense
(since all believers and nonbeliev-
ers being taken means no one
would be on earth). Could the two
angels be referring to the Lambs
Book of Life being closed and
therefore, no one could become
a Christian during the Battle of
Armageddon?
-M. Upton
REPLY: You refer to the two
harvests of Revelation 14. These
two harvests are simultaneous and
are an integral part of the Battle
of Armageddon. The harvest of
the earth is the rapture, and the
harvest of the vine of the earth
is the Battle of Armageddon itself.
These two simultaneous harvests
are described by Jesus in Matthew
13.
It should be noted that not
all the inhabitants of the earth
will be involved in the Battle of
Armageddon. Much of the world
will live into the 1,000-year reign
of Jesus and His church.
Chernobyl as Wormwood
I would like to address
a very unfortunate mis-
take that I see on many
websites. This is the claim that the
events in Revelation 8 describe
the Chernobyl accident. I admit
that it would be uncanny to a high
degree if indeed the Russian (or
Ukrainian in some versions) word
for wormwood were chernobyl.
Unfortunately the word chernobyl
refers to black grass, also called
mugwort. The roots are Chornyi
(black) and Byllia (grass). The
Russian word for wormwood is
Polynhirkyi (common bitter). I
thought you should know this as
I am sure you are dedicated to
academic honesty in your website.
-Aaron, Juneau, Alaska
REPLY: The Chernobyl Disaster,
a secular book by Soviet-born
Viktor Haynes, begins not with an
introduction, but with the proph-
ecy and a quote from the Concise
Oxford Dictionary, 6th Edition:
Chernobyl is a Russian transliter-
ation of the Ukrainian word chor-
nobyl, which in English means
wormwood, a perennial herb of
genus Artemisia with bitter, tonic,
and stimulating qualities used in
preparation of vermouth, absinth
and in medicine. According to
the Dictionary of the Russian Language
by S. Ozhegov, the word cher-
nobylnik means a variety of
absinthe (wormwood) with red-
brown or deep purple stem. The
book Chernobyl: A Documentary
Story by Iurii Shcherbak, translated
from the Ukrainian language, says,
Ancient Chernobyl gave its bit-
ter name (Chernobyl is the com-
mon wormwood) to the powerful
nuclear power station whose con-
struction began in 1971.
Most striking is the testimo-
ny of Hans Blix, former Exec.
Dir. of the International Atomic
Energy Agency. In a UN General
Assembly speech on 10/23/90,
Blix quoted Revelation 8:10-11. He
said, In Slavic languages, includ-
ing the Ukrainian and Byelorussian
languages, there is a word cher-
nobyl, which means wormwood,
bitter grass. This has a striking rel-
evance to the Chernobyl tragedy. I
am no fatalist but who can fail
to be moved by these tragic and
elegiac words from Revelation,
which must leave their indelible
imprint on the heart.
Please consider these highly
credible sources before you totally
discount the possible prophetic
significance of the Chernobyl
nuclear accident of 1986.

U.S. drops immunity measure
for its UN peacekeeping troops
The United States announced
that it would discontinue a
Security Council resolution that
would have extended the immuni-
ty of some United Nations peace-
keepers from prosecution by the
worlds war crimes tribunal for a
third consecutive year.
Happy with the decision,
Secretary-General Kofi Annan
stated that it would help main-
tain the Councils unity at a time
when it faces difficult challenges.
Deputy U.S. Representative
to the UN, James Cunningham,
said that while Washington still
held the same concerns about
the International Criminal Court
that led to the initial resolution in
2002, it has decided not to pro-
ceed with further consideration
and action on the draft at this time
to avoid a prolonged and divisive
debate. The resolution expired
on June 30th.
Cunningham added that the
U.S. would continue to seek bilat-
eral agreements with individual
Member States to protect U.S.
nationals from the ICC.
Norway to ban Islam?
In yet another attack on Islam,
central members of Norways
Kristiansand Progress party
claims Hitlers Mein Kampf and
the Koran are one of the same,
and want Islam banned in their
country.
We are not the only ones
demanding this ban, said Halvor
Hulaas, the partys chairper-
son. The freedom we have in
Norway may be taken away from
us if we do not start to have some
demands to these immigrants. The
religion as it is practiced is a threat
against our social system and way
of life.
Whats at stake? Freedom of
religion.
Digital Angel demonstrates
technology at House Agriculture
Committee Exposition
Digital Angel Corp., manufac-
turer of the subdermal computer
chips used for identification and
location tracking, took part in
a technology exposition for the
House Agriculture Committee on
Capitol Hill in July.
President & CEO Kevin
McGrath commented, We found
the technology exposition to be
exciting and informative. In par-
ticular, Digital Angel demonstrat-
ed a variety of technologies in the
field of tracking and identifica-
tion, most notably, RFID tags
and chips, scanners, and state-
of-the-art herd management soft-
ware The range of technologies
together forms an ideal pool for
a national livestock ID program
such as the one that Secretary
of Agriculture Ann Veneman has
endorsed. Our technology can be
rolled out quickly in quantities to
cover the entire national livestock
population as soon as we are called
upon to do so.
Congressman Gil Gutknecht,
Republican from Minnesota said,
Agriculture is truly becoming a
high tech industry. Technology
providers, such as Digital Angel,
will play a critical role in the future
of agriculture by bringing added
value to the U.S. livestock indus-
try.
Congresswoman Betty
McCollum, Democrat from
Minnesota, said, As Digital Angel
demonstrated at todays presenta-
tion, the companys technology
will help ensure that our country
has the best livestock identifica-
tion and tracking system in the
world.
Under-the-skin ID chips move
toward U.S. hospitals
In July, the Federal Drug
Administration issued a ruling
beginning a final review process
to determine whether hospitals
can use VeriChips RFID systems
to identify patients and/or permit
hospital staff to access medical
records.
VeriChips RFID tags are
implanted below the right tricep.
When close to a VeriChip scan-
ner, the ID number is radioed to
the scanner. If it matches an ID
number in a database, a person
with the chip could gain access
to a secured room or carry out a
financial transaction.
The approval process does not
center on health risks or implica-
tions as the companys technol-
ogy has been used in animals
for years. Instead, the FDA may
examine privacy issues such as the

VeriChip is currently working

UNs anti-Semitism forum
The United Nations held its first-
ever seminar dedicated to anti-
Semitism, which Jewish leaders
say is escalating around the world
but is ignored by UN institutions.
UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan

of its importance, and said that

Arafat: Israel is Jewish; wont
cite figure on refugees
In a recent interview in Haaretz,
Palestinian Authority chairman
Yasser Arafat said he definitely
understands that Israel must pre-
serve its character as a Jewish
state. It is the first time Arafat has
expressed his recognition of the
states Jewish character.
Arafat also cited the PLOs
adoption of the Arab Summit res-
olution of April 2002. Based on
a Saudi initiative, the resolution
called for a just and agreed solution
to the Palestinian refugee problem
based on UN General Assembly
Resolution 194. However, he
refused to say how many refugees
he would insist Israel absorb as a
condition for a peace agreement.
Amos Malka, the former head
of Military Intelligence, stated that
Arafat would be willing to compro-
mise on the return of only 20,000
to 30,000 refugees to Israel.
Arafat said that under any agree-
ment, Israel would maintain sover-
eignty over the Western Wall and
the Jewish Quarter of Jerusalems
Old City. In addition, Israelis would
be granted freedom of access
to holy sites under Palestinian
control. The Palestinians would
require sovereignty over the rest
of East Jerusalem, which would
include the Temple Mount.

Yesha Rabbis Council is playing
with fire
Reacting to a statement by right-
wing rabbis that said the removal
of settlements was against Jewish
law, Prof. Assa Kasher who wrote
the Israeli Defense Force code of
ethics said the Council of Yesha
(West Bank) Rabbis have not
learned anything from the assas-
sination of Yitzhak Rabin and are
playing with fire by encouraging
soldiers to refuse orders to dis-
mantle settlements.
The Yesha council and its rab-
bis, in an attempt to distance
themselves from the right-wing
rabbis, said that there was no
room to refuse military orders.
The rabbis had ruled that accord-
ing to the Torah, no person a
civilian, policeman or soldier is
allowed to take part or assist in
any way the uprooting of Jewish
settlements.
Council Chairman, Rabbi Daniel
Shilo said the statement was not a
call to disobey orders or break
the law and that the time had not
come for such a drastic call. If
the moment comes, and the evac-
uation of settlements is imminent,
then the rabbis would be ready
to talk about refusal of orders,
Shilo said. He added that his was
a statement of protest and that
we should be focusing on how to
achieve security.
Bush refuses to declare Gay
Pride Month
This year, President Bush
refused to declare June Gay
Pride Month. However, despite
the lack of official support, several
groups of federal workers planned
activities for the month.
Leonard Hirsch, president of
Federal GLOBE the Gay,
Lesbian, Bisexual, Transgender
Federal Employees organization
told the Washington Blade, a
gay weekly, that events would be
scheduled at the departments of
Transportation, State, Interior and
the USDA, while other agencies
refused to sanction events without
White House approval.

Texas Republicans urged to drop
Christian nation
A leading Jewish group has asked
the Republican Party in the state
of Texas to stop calling the United
States a Christian nation in its
platform. The Anti-Defamation
League, which fights anti-Semitism
and religious discrimination, said
it was dismayed about the plat-
form plank and other language in
the document that describes as a
myth the separation of church
and state.
Tina Benkiser, the chairwoman
of the Texas Republican Party
said, Our platform is an acknowl-
edgment that most of our nations
founding fathers had a deep faith
in God. The plank in the par-
tys 2004 platform reads, The
Republican Party of Texas affirms
that the United States of America
is a Christian nation, and the pub-
lic acknowledgment of God is
undeniable in our history.

I k n e w
that this year of 2004 w a s
destined to be the pivotal year for
the prophesied revival of the Holy
Roman Empire. The
plan had already been
announced to add ten
new nations to the
European Union, cre-
ating an economic and
political juggernaut of
455 million Europeans.
The intention to adopt
a European constitu-
tion indicated that
Europe was closer than
ever to the realization
of Winston Churchills
dream of a United
States of Europe. The
opportunity to visit
Europe and walk
in the ancient and
future steps of
the Holy Roman
E m p i r e
was just
too much
to resist.
Besi des
all this, I
l earned
that there
have been more
books written about
Napoleon than about any
other person outside of Jesus
Christ. That settled it. Napoleons

stop.
Upon arriving in Paris, my wife
Judy and I immediately embarked
on the adventure of navigating
Paris subway system. We had
been warned repeatedl y
that the sub- way abso-
lutely teemed w i t h
pickpockets.
We tried to
be careful,
but I still had
170 euros
($220) slipped
out of my
pants pocket.
Fortunatel y,
an alert plain-
clothed police-
man saw the
theft happen,
apprehended
the young man
and amazingly we
recovered every euro.
True to all the reports, there
is no other city quite like Paris.
We experienced Notre Dame, the
Eiffel Tower and the unparal-
leled fireworks display celebrat-
ing Bastille Day (July 14). It is
Frances 4
th
of July, celebrat-
ing the French Revolution
of 1789.
The slogan of the
French Revolution,
Equality, Fraternity and
Freedom, can
still be seen dis-
played in many
public places

France.
A few years ago on Bastille Day,
Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn was invit-
ed to be the featured speaker for
Frances annual celebration. In his
speech, he shocked and offended
much of France. He focused on the

French Revolution should
never have taken place.
He explained that the rev-
olutions slogan
was an impossi-
ble contradiction.
He pointed out that
Equality and Freedom
cannot coexist. He con-
tinued by explaining
that when people are
free, they will inevitably
be unequal. If govern-
ment attempts to force
equality upon its pop-
ulace, it must impose
equality by laws that inevitably
infringe upon the freedom of the
individual. It was Solzhenitsyns
way of criticizing the socialism
that Russia was
attempting to
escape from and
that France had
r e c e n t l y
been moving
toward.
Napoleons burial site at
Les Invalides in Paris is
impressive to say the least. All of
the promotional material about
Napoleon touts him as the last
emperor of the Holy Roman
Empire. Because of
Bible prophecy, I
knew better. While
it is true that
Cha r l e ma g ne
was the first
emperor of the
Holy Roman
Empire, it is
not true that
Napoleon was
the last.
The last wan-
nabe European
emperor was Adolf
Hitler. And he almost
succeeded. He had suc-
cessfully forged the tradi-
tional alliance with the Pope.
Hitler was Roman Catholic.
He and Mussolini had signed a
concordat with the Vatican called
the Lateran Treaty.
Our visit to Dunkirque reminded
me of just how close the Austrian
Corporal came to conquering
all of Europe. Hitlers blitzkrieg
attack swept through France in a
mere six weeks. The Allied Armies
were trapped against the English
Channel by the pincher movement
of the German armies. According
to the Rise and Fall of the Third
Reich, the Allies were within three
days of having to sue for peace on
Hitlers terms. Think of it! Three
days from Adolf Hitler being the
undisputed dictator of Europe!
Things were so desperate that

England Prime Minister Winston
Churchill called for a worldwide
day of prayer and fasting.
At this point, God intervened.
Hitler was suddenly seized with
a strong premonition that things
on the battlefront were happening
too easily. He ordered a halt for
reassessment. His generals were
ordered back to Hitlers command
bunker for consultation. The gen-
erals were beside themselves with
anger. They knew that victory was
within their grasps.
While Hitler strategized with
his officers, the Allies mobilized
every boat in Britain and France.
Back and forth across the 18-
mile-wide English Channel they
raced day and night. During the
lull in the fighting, they were able
to rescue 350,000 men, the heart
of the Allied Army. When Hitler
cranked his war machine
back up, only 40,000 Allied
s o l d i e r s remained. The
rest were safely in Great

that came

All of this his-
tory came flooding

Back to the future
Three wars had devas-
tated Europe in less than
seventy-five yearsthe Franco-
German War of 1870, World War
I and World War II. The lead-
ers of Europe were desperate for
answers after the 52 million fatali-
ties of World War II. Amazingly,
they decided on a solution that had
been attempted repeatedly over
the past 1,000 years and had failed
every time. They decided to resur-
rect the Holy Roman Empire.
The treaty that set the unifi-
cation process in motion was
signed in 1957 and was appropri-
ately called the Treaty of Rome.
Brussels, Belgium was chosen to
be the capital of the projected
United States of Europe. It was the

natural choice. Brussels is located
approximately 150 miles from
Paris, London, Amsterdam and
Bonn, Germany. Today, Brussels
houses the extensive government
structures of the European Union
and its 455 million people. No trip
centered around the Holy Roman
Empire could leave out the city of
Brussels.
We arrived at Brussels just in
time to catch the last tour of
the day through the European
Parliament building. The half
hour tour sent the unmistakable
message that the unification of
Europe is an historic event and
that the European Parliament
is playing a vital role in that
unification. European unification
is more extensive today than in
any previous attempt at the Holy
Roman Empire. What makes the
present revival of the European
dream even more remarkable is
that it has all been accomplished
without firing a single shot.
After leaving Brussels, we trav-
eled to Aachan, Germany. It was
at Aachan that the entire pic-
ture came together. Aachan was
the home of the first emperor
of the Holy Roman Empire
Charlemagne. The church that
Charlemagne built around 800
AD still stands, housing his tomb.
It was here that the Holy Roman
Empire was born.
A prize is given each year to
the person who contributes the
most to European unity. Because
Charlemagne was the founder of
the Holy Roman Empire, the prize
is called the Charlemagne Prize.
Recipients of the Charlemagne
Prize normally travel to Aachan to
receive their rewards. Bill Clinton
traveled to Aachan when given the
Charlemagne Prize in 2000. Pope
John Paul II received the award
in 2004.
As we headed south from
Aachan toward Switzerland, we
were presented with an unplanned
and unexpected treat. Traveling
along on the Autobahn, I saw
the exit sign for Worms,
Germany. Worms (pro-
nounced Verms) is
the place
where Martin
Luther was
placed on trial
for heresy by the
Roman Catholic
Church back in
the 16
th
Century.
Luther was con-
victed and sen-
tenced to die by
burning at the
stake, a sentence
that was never
carried out. The
church where
the ecclesiastical
trial took place is still standing.
Luthers teachings are credited
with unleashing the Protestant
movement, which, in turn, weak-
ened the Holy Roman Empires
hold on Europe.
The prophecies of the Bible
teach that the last-day Holy
Roman Empire will ultimately join
with the structures of world gov-
ernment. It seemed only fitting
that the last stop of our tour was
Geneva, Switzerland. Geneva is
one of the foremost centers for
world government in the world.
The headquarters for the World
Trade Organization is there. The
World Health Organization and
the offices of the World Council
of Churches also make Geneva
their home.
As Judy and I boarded the plane
for home, I had the distinct feeling
that we had been walking in the
footsteps of Charlemagnepast,
present and future!

ISRAELANDTHEMIDDLEEAST
Conventional wisdom says that it is
the sacred duty of every Muslim to drive
the Jews of Israel into the Mediterranean.
Dr. Khaleel Mohammed, however,
reveals that this is not at all what Islam
teaches. The idea that the land of Israel
does not belong to the Jews, he says, is a
modern one.
Dr. Mohammed is Asst. Professor
of Religious Studies at San Diego State
University, specializing in Islam, Islamic
Law and Comparative Religion, and his
mission is to help reclaim the beauty
that once was practiced in Islam, a mes-
sage not currently in fashion amongst
more traditional or fundamentalist
Muslims.
A
s a scholar of Religion
I am forced to read
scripture through diff-
erent lenses than does a scholar of
Divinity or a believer. I examine
scripture with a critical eye, often
extrapolating data that seem at
odds with the prevailing opinion
of the faith-based scholars. I also
read the Bible (both the Hebrew
and Christian Bibles) and the
Quran with the realization that
a rabbi, a priest or an imam will
often use the main scripture of
his/her religion as if it possesses
the only data on the subject being
discussedtotally oblivious to the
fact that the scriptures of other
religions, or even apocryphal
texts within his/her own religion
may contain additional or even
contradictory material. And it
is within this framework that
certain truisms come to light.
When, for example, a text makes
a declaration, and is the only text
making that declaration, then one
may legitimately say to the believer
in that faith (let us call it faith A),
To you be your belief, and to
me mine; my text says nothing of
the issue, and therefore I choose
not to accept your view. When,
however, the same idea is reiterated
in the scripture of another religion
(let us call this faith B), certainly
then, the faithful believers in both
faiths must agree on the issue,
submitting to the scripture.
This is exactly the case with
Israel. For whether one likes to

admit it or not, religion plays the
dominant role in terms of rec-
ognition of Israels right to exist.
Jews look to the Hebrew Bible
and quote verses that manifestly
buttress their position. Christians
read that Bible, along with the
New Testament,
and come to the
same conclusion.
The average
Muslim however,
reads the Quran
and claims to
come to a differ-
ent conclusion.
This difference
of opinion is sig-
nificant because
the countries
that surround
and fight against
Israel are over-
w h e l m i n g l y
Muslim, and
purvey ideas
under the nim-
bus of religious
authority. And
the imams and
preachers contin-
ue to insist that
Jewish rights to
the land of Israel
ceased with the Muslim occupa-
tion of the Holy Land in 638, and
that Islam now dictates that the
Jews who currently live there are
usurpers to the property of oth-
ers.
The question that arises then
is: from whence comes the pre-
dominant Muslim opinion? There
is certainly no verse in the Quran
that says the Jews or Children of
Israel have relegated the right to
that land. Certainly there is the
issue of how the modern state of
Israel was founded, and that there
have been sanguinary and often
unjust occurrences that would
make God-loving people weep.
But this discourse is not centered
on the peripheral issue of how
Israel was regained; rather it deals
with the crux of the matter: Does
the Quran state that the land of
Israel belongs to the Jews?
Quran: Does Israel belong to the
Jews?
In order to answer this ques-
tion, one has to understand that
in reading the Quran, one has to
approach it in a different manner
to the Bible. The Quran, after all,
is primarily a document that is an
oral text, and as such, its material
is delivered differently than that of
a written text. One has to read the
entire document, understand that
its verses are not chronologically,
nor even topically or thematically
arranged. A matter may be dis-
cussed in one chapter, and then
be followed up several chapters
later. In short, one has to read the
entire document to understand its
worldview, and only then can one
attempt an informed extrapola-
tion.
There is also another matter that
must be considered when deal-
ing with the Quran. Unlike the
Hebrew and Christian Testaments,
the Quran does not focus strong-
ly on prophecy. The reason is
quite simple when one considers
the time setting of the three faiths,
and in the light of eschatological
terminology. Judaism, the oldest
of the Abrahamic religions, is said
to speak of consistent eschatology.
A laymans explanation can be that
as far as Judaism
is concerned, in
terms of the time
at which it came,
there is much yet
to occur before
the Endtimes,
and so there are
many prophecies
to be fulfilled.
The Christ-
ian position is
said to be that of
realized or inau-
gurated eschatol-
ogy. Jesus comes
as the Messiah to
fulfill the proph-
ecies of the
Hebrew Bible.
This is only pos-
sible towards the
End of Time, as
evi denced
by his
s t a t e -
ment,
The End is at
Hand. Are we living
in the Last Days, or
at the Beginning
of the Last Days?
Depending on
how one answers
the question, one
may choose real-
ized or inaugu-
rated eschatol-
ogy.
The Quran
presupposes that
its readers under-
stand the forego-
ing viewsfor the
Arabia to which
M u h a m m a d
came knew both
Judaism and
Christianity, and
was keenly aware of
>>
16 ENDTIME MAGAZINE SEPTEMBER / OCTOBER 2004
their beliefs. After all, the Quran
speaks of the prophets of both
religions, and of their scripture as
being divine. The Quran, since it
recognizes Jesus as Messiah, can-
not help but see that the end of
time is either here or has started,
and therefore it does not have
much to prophesize about. But
on occasion, it does prophesize.
Remarkably, one such prophecy
is in regards to Israel. And therein
lies a possible solution to the
problemat least in terms of hav-
ing the Muslim understand certain
realities.
In Chapter 5:21 of the Quran,
Moses says to the Children of
Israel: O my tribe! Enter the
Holy Land which God has written
for you Now, as I have writ-
ten elsewhere (see The Koran
and the Jews, frontpagemag.com,
June 3, 2004), this matter is one
that means more than what is
apparent to the eye: the usage of
the term written is extremely
significant. If God writes some-
thing, since God is not like a
fickle, fallible human, then Gods
writing (i.e. Gods decree), must
be seen to be permanent, and
none may change it.
It may be argued that if this were
so, then the Jews would not have
been twice exiled from the Holy
Land. The argument is a shallow
one: exile from the Promised Land
does not change ownership. It
may be contended that exile does
in fact indicate that God wants
to change owner-
ship, and that such
exile then negated
Jewish sovereignty
to the Holy Land.
The fact is that the
Jews certainly have
not seen it this way,
and neither did the
medieval Muslim
exegetes. They
argued that exile as
punishment, or delay
in bringing about
physical possession
does not negate own-
ership. As Tabari, Ibn
Kathir and other exe-
getes argued, Gods keeping the
exodus survivors from the Land
for forty years was in return for
their wrongdoing when ordered
to fight for their land: and as such,
their taking possession was merely
delayed, not annulled.
The question of
Jewish exile
Nonet hel es s ,
for a Muslim, the
fact remains that
the Jews were
exiled twice, and
that after the sec-
ond exile, the land
was occupied by
others who hap-
pen to be Muslim
and Christian, with
the majority being
Muslim. The fact
remains too that
the average Muslim
does not read the
Quran and under-
stand that docu-
ment in terms of
its text: rather s/
he reads it through
the perceptions of
medieval exegetes
whose writings
have in some cases truly explicat-
ed, and in others, warped the clear
meaning of the scripture. The far-
ther away they were removed from
the time of Muhammad, the more
refracted their exegeses became,
to the point where the idea of
exegesis evolved into not faithful-

The aver-
age Muslim
looks at the
text I quoted
earlier and,
despite its
clarity, finds fault with the inter-
pretation that I give: that it makes
clear the land belongs to the Jews.
So how then do I respond? I refer
to one of the oldest exegetical
works in Islam, one predating that
of al-Tabari (d. 923), the most
famous of exegetes. I use rather
the work of Muqatil b. Sulayman
(d. 767), whose exegesis is one
of the oldest extant (I am aware
of the issue of reliability of prov-
enance, and feel that the docu-
ment is to be seen as genuine).
He explains Q5:21 as referring
to Jericho and Palestine, and that
God has ordered the Jews to enter
the land.
He continues: This is because
God said to Abraham, when he
was in the Holy Land, this land
where you are now today, is the
inheritance for your son after you.
And when God sent forth Moses
from Egypt
with the
children of
Israel, and

believing Muslim, the closer is
the verse of prophecy in Q17:104
which reads:
And after him, we said to the
Children of Israel: Dwell now in
the landand remember that
when the promise of the Last Day
shall come to pass, we shall bring
you forth together.
Once again, Muqatil b. Sulayman
interprets this text in light of the
beliefs that are presupposed by the
Quran, based on Biblical stories.
He explains that this occurred
after the death of Pharaoh, and
that it means the obvious: that
towards the Endtimes, God will
bring the people of Moses to that
land.
The issue for a believing
Muslim then is simple: does s/
he stand in the way of Gods
promise? The answer is clear, and
only those who are arrogant and
bedeviled may claim to not know
what to do. The answer does not
in any way negate the rights of
Palestinians to a human existence
in that land: the Torah orders the
rightful owners of that land to
treat ALL with humaneness and
dignity. There is no issue then
of Bible vs. Quran on the issue
of Israel; both documents are in
agreement.
Why have I written this piece?
Or rather, what agenda do I have?
I am not Jewish, so it may not
be assumed that I am dispens-
ing pro-Israel propaganda. I am
not Christian, so it may not be
assumed that I am thinking
of fulfilling Christian prophetic
ideas regarding the parousia.
And I certainly do not care
whether the Jews or Christians
regard my scripture as a genu-
ine one. Rather I am Muslim,
and I do what I do for the plea-
sure of my Lord, and to use the
knowledge that I have painstak-
ingly pursued, for the benefit of
my fellow Muslims.
As one who believes in his
holy text, I find that it clearly
states that Israel must be. To
deny this would be to deny
Gods decree. If all my fellow
Muslims were to stand against
me (God forbid!), my answer
would be to quote, in addi-
tion to the verses already cited,
that of Q 6:162: Say Truly my
prayer and my rituals, my life
and my death are all for God, the
Cherisher of the worlds.

To act in such a way that the Jews
who died in the gas chambers would be
the last Jews to die without defending
themselves.
Golda Meir
Israel
w o u l d
s o o n
need its
own, independent, capabilities
to complete its nuclear program.
The joint venture with France
gave Israel several ingredients for
nuclear weapons construction: a
production reactor, a factory to
extract plutonium from the spent
fuel, and the design. In 1962, the
Dimona reactor went critical;
the French resumed work on
the underground plutonium
reprocessing plant, and
completed it in 1964 or 1965.
There is little doubt that some
time in the late sixties, Israel
became the sixth nation to
manufacture nuclear weapons.
Other things they needed
were extra uranium and extra
heavy water to run the reactor
at a higher rate. Norway, France
and the United States provided
the heavy water and Operation
Plumbat provided the uranium.
After the 1967 War, France
stopped supplies of uranium to
Israel. Israel had small amounts
of uranium, but not in the large
quantities supplied by the French.
Using a West German front
company and a high seas transfer
from one ship to another in the
Mediterranean, they obtained 200
tons of uranium oxide, known as
yellow cake. The West German
government may have been
involved directly but remained
undercover to avoid antagonizing
the Soviets or Arabs.
Norway sold 20 tons of heavy
water to Israel in 1959 for use in an
experimental power reactor. Israel
simply promised that the heavy
water was for peaceful purposes.
Author Seymour Hersh, writing
in the Samson Option says Prime
Minister Levi Eshkol delayed
starting weapons production
even after Dimona was nished.
In the mid-60s, considerable
collaboration between Israel
and South Africa developed and
continued through the 1970s and
1980s. South Africa became Israels
primary supplier of uranium for
Dimona.
Egypt attempted unsuccessfully
to obtain nuclear weapons from the
Soviet Union both before and after
the Six-Day War. President Nasser
received from the Soviet Union
a questionable nuclear guarantee
instead and declared that Egypt
would develop its own nuclear
program. His rhetoric of 1965 and
1966 about preventive war and
Israeli nuclear weapons coupled
with overights of the Dimona
reactor contributed to the tensions
that led to war. One source lists
such Egyptian overights, along
with United Nations peacekeeper
withdrawal and Egyptian troop
movements into the Sinai, as one
of the three tripwires which
would drive Israel to war. There
was an Egyptian military plan
to attack Dimona at the start of
any war but Nasser vetoed it. He
believed Israel would have the
bomb in 1968. Israel assembled
two nuclear bombs and ten days
later went to war. Nassers plan, if
he had one, may have been to gain
and consolidate territorial gains
before Israel had a nuclear option.
He was two weeks too late.
The Israelis aggressively
pursued an aircraft delivery
system from the United
States. President Johnson
was less emphatic about
nonproliferation than Pres-
ident Kennedyor perhaps
had more pressing concerns,
such as Vietnam. He had
a long history of both
Jewish friends and pressing
political contributors coupled
with some rst hand experience
of the Holocaust, having toured
concentration camps at the end of
World War II. Israel pressured him
hard for aircraft (A-4E Skyhawks
initially and F-4E Phantoms later)
and obtained agreement in 1966
under the condition that the aircraft
would not be used to deliver
nuclear weapons. Although denied
at the time, America delivered the
F-4Es, on September 5, 1969, with
nuclear capable hardware intact.
The Samson Option states that

ENDTIME MAGAZINE SEPTEMBER / OCTOBER 2004 23
Moshe Dayan gave the go-ahead
for starting weapon production in
early 1968, putting the plutonium
separation plant into full operation.
Israel began producing three to
ve bombs a year. The book
Critical Mass asserts that Israel
had two bombs in 1967, and that
Prime Minister Eshkol ordered
them armed in Israels rst nuclear
alert during the Six-Day War.
On the afternoon of 6 October
1973, Egypt and Syria attacked
Israel in a coordinated surprise
assault, beginning the Yom
Kippur War. Caught with
only regular forces on duty,
augmented by reservists with
a low readiness level, Israeli
front lines crumbled. By early
afternoon on October 7th,
no effective forces were in
the southern Golan Heights
and Syrian forces had reached
the edge of the plateau,
overlooking the Jordan River.
This crisis brought Israel to its
second nuclear alert.
Defense Minister Moshe
Dayan, obviously not at his
best at a press brieng, was,
according to Time magazine,
rattled enough to later tell the
prime minister that this is
the end of the third temple,
referring to an impending
collapse of the state of Israel.
Temple was also the code
word for nuclear weapons.
Prime Minister Golda Meir and
her kitchen cabinet made the
decision on the night of October
8th. The Israelis assembled 13
twenty-kiloton atomic bombs. The
number and in fact the entire story
was later leaked by the Israelis as a
great psychological warfare tool.
U.S. Secretary of State Henry
Kissinger was notied of the alert
several hours later on the morning
of October 9th. The U.S. decided
to open an aerial resupply pipeline
to Israel, and Israeli aircraft began
picking up supplies that day. The
military situation stabilized on
October 8th and 9th as Israeli
reserves poured into the battle
and averted disaster. Well before
signicant American resupply had
reached Israeli forces, the Israelis
counterattacked and turned the
tide on both fronts.
On October 11th, a counter-
attack on the Golan broke the
back of Syrias offensive, and on
October 15th and 16th, Israel
launched a surprise crossing of
the Suez Canal into Africa. Soon
the Israelis encircled the Egyptian
Third Army and it was faced with
annihilation on the east bank of
the Suez Canal, with no protective
forces remaining between the
Israeli Army and Cairo. The
rst U.S. ights arrived on 14
October. American commanders
in Germany depleted their stocks
of missiles, at that time only
shared with the British and West
Germans, and sent them forward
to Israel.
Thus started the subtle, opaque
use of the Israeli bomb to ensure
that the United States kept
its pledge to maintain Israels
conventional weapons edge over its
foes. There is signicant anecdotal
evidence that Henry Kissinger told
President of Egypt, Anwar Sadat,
that the reason for the U.S. airlift
was that the Israelis were close to
going nuclear.
Soviet premier Leonid Brezhnev
threatened, on October 24th, to
airlift Soviet airborne troops to
reinforce the Egyptians cut
off on the eastern side of the
Suez Canal and put seven
Soviet airborne divisions on
alert. Evidence indicates that
the Soviets sent nuclear missile
submarines also. President
Nixons response was to bring
the U.S. to worldwide nuclear
alert the next day, whereupon
Israel went to nuclear alert a
third time. This sudden crisis
quickly faded as Prime Minister
Meir agreed to a cease-re,
relieving the pressure on the
Egyptian Third Army.
Shimon Peres had argued
for a pre-war nuclear
demonstration to deter the
Arabs. Arab strategies and
war aims in 1967 may have
been restricted because of a
fear of the Israeli bomb in
the basement, the undeclared
nuclear option. Egypt and Syria
seemed not to violate Israel
proper and avoided triggering
one of the unstated Israeli
reasons to employ nuclear
weapons. Peres credits Dimona
with bringing Anwar Sadat to
Jerusalem to make peace.
At the end of the Yom Kippur
War (a nation-shaking experience),
Israel had her nuclear arsenal
fully functional and tested by a
deployment. The arsenal, still
opaque and unspoken, was no
longer a secret, especially to the
two superpowers, the United
States and the Soviet Union.
The conclusion of this article will
appear in the next issue of Endtime.
And this shall be the plague with which the
LORD will strike all the people who fought
against Jerusalem: Their esh shall dissolve
while they stand on their feet, Their eyes shall
dissolve in their sockets, And their tongues
shall dissolve in their mouths. Zechariah

WORLDGOVERNMENT
I
f a leopard changes its spots,
is it still a leopard? As you
may have guessed, this age
old question has nothing to do
with feline biology, rather, it has
everything to do with motives and
reality.
Heres another question: if the
largest pro-world government
lobby group in the United States
changes itself into a grassroots
member organization of con-
cerned citizens for global solu-
tions, what is it?
I assure you this is more than
just gobbledygook.
This past spring, in a controver-
sial move, the largest pro-world
government organization in the
U.S. changed its spots. The World
Federalist Association, which for
decades has been a frontline world
government player, changed its
name to Citizens for Global
Solutions.
Granted, this new name is a
real yawner. But as sleepy as this
appears, such a changeover by
Americas most prominent world-
government advocacy group
reflects a directional switch that
cannot be ignored.
In order to understand whether
or not the leopard has changed its
spots, its important to know who
and what the World Federalist
Association is, its history, and its
inuence. If all this seems a little
mundane, ash back with me to
a WFA meeting in an unspecied
Texas city sometime in the later
part of the 1990s. Am I being
vague? Yes, but sometimes you
have to be.
Like most global governance
meetings, the real meat and pota-
toes of this particular WFA event
wasnt what was said behind the
podium. Rather, its at the coffee
breaks, banquet tables, and private
encounters in the hall where the
issues are hashed out, the net-
working begins, and the juiciest
information is spilled.
During one particular break,
a group of WFA activists and
staff set up a television and VCR.
Somebody popped in a video, and
we watched as two recognized
right wing authors spoke on
the dangers of world government.
In one presentation, the speaker
talked about the move towards
world government as a great con-
spiracy and flashed on the screen
a variety of logos and letterheads
from different global governance
programs.
The WFA reaction was interest-
ing. Some had their arms folded
and were seriously scrutinizing the
video, one person in the group
half-jokingly yelled at the screen,
we are the conspiracy. When a
specific letterhead appeared, a staff
member piped up, I designed
that logo. One individual sit-
ting beside me commented that
the information in the video was
accurate, but criticized one of the
speakers for using too much rhet-
oric.
After the tape ended, the WFA
staffer who inserted the video
talked about the seriousness of the
situation specifically that these
types of videos represented an
educational backlash against the
WFA and its goal of world fed-
eration. In the end, it was noted
that an educational counter-offen-
sive was needed in order to mar-
ginalize global governance crit-

ENDTIME MAGAZINE SEPTEMBER / OCTOBER 2004 25
ics. Furthermore, some felt that
the WFA needed a new approach
that would shift public focus away
from the uncomfortable language
of world government. A few
postulated that this could be
achieved by couching WFAs pub-
lic message in terms that would
be considered more benign; for
example, instead of talking about
world government which is
what world federalism implies
reshape the language to reflect a
more grass roots platform: i.e.,
global democracy, internation-
al justice, and the rule of law.
I went away from this experi-
ence with my mind reeling it was
a good reminder about the serious-
ness of the game that I was a part
of. Moreover, it afforded me an
opportunity to witness the long-
standing public relations dilemma
of the WFA agenda: world gov-
ernment sounds way too radical,
but like it or not, it is the shadow
in which the WFA walks.
High ideals
With the bloody climax of World
War II, a number of groups in the
U.S. and Europe arose with the
call to form a united world gov-
ernment that would bring an end
to the war-system of nation-
states. In early 1947, in Asheville,
North Carolina, several of these
major groups joined forces to cre-
ate the United World Federalists.
At the same time they drafted and
released the Asheville Statement
of Policy/Purposes, which reads
in part,
We believe that peace is not
merely the absence of war, but
the presence of justice, of law, of
order in short, of government
and the institutions of govern-
ment; that world peace can be
created and maintained only under
world law, universal and strong
enough to prevent armed conflicts
between nations.
Therefore, while endorsing the
efforts of the United Nations to
bring about a world community
favorable to peace, we will work
primarily to strengthen the United
Nations into a world government
of limited powers adequate to pre-
vent war
Highlighting these early years,
the World Federalist Association
1997 Acti vi st
Guidebook states, By
November of 1947
large newspapers had
given editorial sup-
port to the move-
ment and there
were 150 student
chapters. By 1950
there were more
than 40,000
members. In
terms of pub-
lic member-
ship the late
1940s were
the apex
years of
the orga-
nization.
This shouldnt be unexpected.
The years immediately following
World War II were heady times
for world government advocates.
A new United Nations had been
born, and bold statements of
international peace and order
were being proclaimed. Speaking
at Westminster College in Fulton,
Missouri, Winston Churchill rallied
for a United Nations international
armed force (March 5, 1946). And
at Albert Hall in London, England,
Churchill proclaimed,
The creation of an authorita-
tive, all-powerful world order is
the ultimate aim towards which we
must strive. Unless some effective
World Super-Government can be
set up and brought quickly into
action, the prospects for peace
and human progress are dark
and doubtful. (Churchill Speaks,
1897-1963: Collected Speeches in
Peace and War, speech given on
May 14, 1947).
Others too were sounding-
out for an international system
of law and gover-
nance, including
Albert Einstein,
Harry Truman,
Julian Huxley,
Bertrand Russell,
and Indian Prime
Minister Jawaharlal
Nehru. So too did
U.S. Congressional
and Senate reso-
lutions appear
endorsing the con-
cept of expanding
the United Nations
into a system of
world government.
In the case of U.S.
House Resolution
64 (1949), the
wording of the
resolution couldnt
have been clearer;
it should be a fun-
damental objective
of the foreign pol-
icy of the United
States to support
and strengthen the
United Nations and to seek its
development into a world federa-
tion
And then the Cold War swept
aside the utopian visions of world
federalism. Not only that, the
United World Federalists and
more importantly the United
Nations was considered by
many to be a Communist front.
Membership in World Federalist
organizations plummeted.
Finding the middle road
Obviously, a direct jump into
world government was out of the
question. According to an histori-
cal appendix in WFAs document,
Rethinking Basic Assumptions
About The United Nations, They
soon realized that world federation
would not come overnight. From
Julian Huxley: First Director General of UNESCO
and supporter of a world government system
WORLDGOVERNMENT

early on world federalists focused
their educational and program
efforts on such intermediate steps
as arms control, the development
of world law, and strengthening
the United Nations. Essentially,
a middle road was chosen.
Even though the Cold War-
era dampened World Federalist
numbers, the organization and its
membership were instrumental in
a number of ways.
1960s: Federalists initiated
the movement to create the
United States Arms Control
and Disarmament Agency
(now part of the State
Department). They also
supported the signing of
the Limited Test Ban
Treaty.
1970s: Worked to
rally support for the
United Nations Law of
the Sea Treaty.
1980s: Worked to
establish phased general
and complete disarmament
under international inspec-
tion, re-igniting the momen-
tum built during the Arms Control
platform of the 1960s.
Throughout this time, the United
World Federalists shifted and re-
grouped as an organization, splin-
tering during the 1970s, and then
re-emerging as the tax-exempt
World Federalist Association. And
while the idea of World Federalism
waxed and waned throughout the
Cold War-era, it did attract some
interesting individuals to its ranks,
including author Benjamin Spock,
U.S. Supreme Court Judge William
O. Douglas, and Ronald Reagan
who was to become the 40th
President of the United States.
In fact, when one goes through
the membership lists and biogra-
phies of leading World Federalists,
you find a startling array of politi-
cal hitters; members of the United
World Federalists and the subse-
quent World Federalist Association
include Congressmen, Senators,
state and federal judges, leading
UN officials, World Bank person-
nel, major authors and publishers,
union leaders, U.S. ambassadors
(to foreign countries, NATO, and
the United Nations), federal and
state government office holders,
mayoral candidates, presidential
candidates, university professors,
and a host of individuals with con-
nections to the Council on Foreign
Relations and other significant for-
eign affairs organizations. Even the
intelligence community had ties,
especially as the first president of
the UWF was Cord Meyer Jr., who
was eventually recruited by Allen
Dulles and became head of the
CIAs International Organizations
Division and Covert Action Staff.
But it was in the 1990s that
the World Federalist Association
achieved major results in its quest
for global governance.
Its all about strategy
On April 30, 1989, the World
Federalist Association adopted a
strategy statement for the 1990s
which read in part; The World
Federalist Association is working
to transform the United Nations
into a world federationOur
objective is a United Nations
World Federation
Pushing this agenda forward,
the WFA supported the creation
of a special U.S. Commission on
Improving the Effectiveness of the
United Nations. Walter Hoffman,
a member of the World Federalist
Association, was appointed by
Congressional House Speaker Tom
Foley to sit on the Commission.
And President George H.W.
Bush appointed Dr. Harris O.
Schoenberg to the Commission,
an internationalist tightly con-
nected to WFA interests.
Another event which
helped pave the way
for larger WFA policy
exposure was a 1992
conference at the
Wingspread Center
in Wisconsin.
Bringing together
participants from
the United Nations,
the U.S. govern-
ment, and key political
institutions, the focus
of this WFA-sponsored
meeting was to engage
participants in re-thinking
basic assumptions on how the
UN should operate. Ideas that
percolated included the creation
of an International Criminal Court
and the domestic enforcement of
international laws.
Compared to the Cold War
slump, the 90s were looking
bright.
Over the course of the decade,
the WFA became progressively
engaged in major United Nations
events including the 1992 Rio
Earth Summit and the UN World
Conference on Women and by
1996, the WFA was granted its
own consultative status by the
United Nations Economic and
Social Council. Moreover, in 1994,
the WFA spearheaded what was
to become one of its most suc-
cessful campaigns, the creation
of a lobbyist coalition to press
for an International Criminal
Court. When the ICC was finally
announced, Federalists privately
cheered it as their baby.

Looks like a leopard
In the mid-1990s, public mem-
bership in the WFA increased
under a renewed membership
drive, eventually hovering around
the 10,000 mark. However, these
numbers were rarely reflected
in the WFAs annual meetings
and special events. Rather, the
WFAs core leadership under John
Anderson (1980 U.S. presidential
candidate) was the most active and
visible component of the organi-
zation. Membership may have its
privileges, but leadership has the
spotlight.
Probably no other event in recent
World Federalist history displayed
this fact more than the United
Nations Millennium Forum in May
of 2000. Key World Federalists sat
on the Forums steering com-
mittee and were heavily involved
in organizing and managing the
conference. They manned the reg-
istration table. They sat on panels
and were vocal in group discus-
sions. They dominated the
Forums thematic working
group on Strengthening
and Democratizing the
United Nations argu-
ably the most important
working group of the six
offered. They even had
VIP seats in the first three
rows during Secretary-
General Kofi Annans
opening speech. And at
the end of the week, World
Federalists were publicly
thanked for their efforts
in making the Forum a
success. In fact, World
Federalists were so promi-
nent that many delegates
privately complained that
the Forum was nothing more
than a Federalist event.
But they didnt talk about
world government; creating an
international tax yes; establish-
ing a UN parliamentary system
yes; giving the United Nations
its own military powers yes;
and strengthening international
law into a binding set of global
agreements affirmative on that
as well. Nothing about world
government.
Hence, it didnt surprise me
when, about three years ago, I
saw a staff member of the World
Federalist Association on a late
night public television talk show.
The topic was the International
Criminal Court.
Towards the end of the program,
the host directly asked whether or
not the WFA advocated world
government. The WFA staffer
didnt say yes or no. Instead, an
obviously pre-planned explana-
tion about justice and the rule
of law left ill-informed viewers
wondering, why did the host ask
about world government?
All of this brings us around
to our main question about a
leopard and his spots. Today, the
WFA leopard seems to have lost
its spots by regrouping under a
name which could hardly be con-
strued in a negative light. You
could even say that Citizens for
Global Solutions invokes a posi-
tive impression, or at the very least
dull. Not surprisingly, a search for
the term world government on
the CGS website brings up only
one hit, and that single reference
to world government is couched
in a negative framework!
So is the bid for world govern-
ment no longer relevant to this new
group? Hardly. Despite the name
change, the core goals and val-
ues of global governance remain.
Moreover, when CGS formed, it
amalgamated a second organiza-
tion into its fold the Campaign
for UN Reform, a group whose
upper echelon was largely com-
prised of active World Federalist
players. In a way this merger was
a homecoming; the CUNR was a
World Federalist offshoot body
from the mid-1970s, and both the
WFA and the CUNR espoused
global solutions through an
international management system.
This striving for global gover-
nance, combined in the re-pack-
aged Citizens for Global Solutions,
is evident in the official CGS
vision statement,
Citizens for Global Solutions
envisions a future in which nations
work together to abolish war, pro-
tect our rights and freedoms,
and solve the problems fac-
ing humanity that no nation
can solve alone. This vision
requires effective democratic
global institutions that will
apply the rule of law while
respecting the diversity and
autonomy of national and local
communities.
Its no coincidence that the
term democratic global insti-
tutions resembles the earlier
United World Federalist plat-
form of a world government
of limited powers. In fact,
as I write this, the new and
improved Citizens for Global
Solutions is establishing an
internal sub-group the World
Federalist Institute.
The bottom line is this: No
matter if you call it the United
World Federalists, the World
Federalist Association, or the
Citizens for Global Solutions, the
ultimate achievement is the cre-
ation of a global system of gov-
ernment. The animal, spots or no
spots, is the same.
Albert Einstein Endorsed the idea of world
government.

W
ith the dissolution
of the Soviet
Union, many
people said that Russia was
no longer a signicant factor
in world affairs. However,
Bible prophecy foretells a very
important role for Russia in the
endtime.
In Ezekiel 38, it is proph-
esied that the chief prince of
Meshech, also referred to as
Gog and Magog, will lead the
invasion of Israel at the Battle
of Armageddon. Websters
Third International Dictionary
defines Meshech as the
word for Moscovi or
Moscow. Of course,
Moscow is the capital
of Russia.
We know that the inva-
sion of Israel described in
Ezekiel 38-39 is the Battle
of Armageddon since the
great supper of our God is
described as occurring in both
the Gog-Magog War (Ezekiel
39:17-20) and at Armageddon
(Revelation 19:17-20).
Further evidence of Russias
prominent role in the endtime
is given in Revelation 13:1-2,
And I stood upon the sand
of the sea, and saw a beast rise
up out of the sea, having seven
heads and ten horns, and upon
his horns ten crowns, and upon
his heads the name of blasphe-
my. And the beast which I saw
was like unto a leopard, and his
feet were as the feet of a bear,
and his mouth as the mouth
of a lion: and the dragon gave
him his power, and his seat, and
great authority.
This strange beast is a symbol
of the endtime world govern-
ment of the Antichrist. Notice
that the mouth of the beast is
the lionthe symbol
of England. This is
Gods way of letting
us know that the lan-
guage of the endtime
world govern-
ment will
be English. The United Nations
has now decided that the official
language of the world commu-
nity is English.
The feet of the world gov-
ernment beast were the feet of
a bear. The official symbol of
Russia is the bear. God wanted
us to know that Russia would
be an integral part of the one-
world system of the Antichrist.
So Russia is destined to be a
major player in world affairs all
the way to the Second Coming
of Jesus Christ.
Russias resurgence
Since Vladimir Putin became
president of Russia, the
fortunes of the nation seem to
have turned around. Russias
oil production has increased
dramatically, almost equaling so
far this year that of the worlds
top oil producer, Saudi Arabia.
Russia is averaging 8.9 million
barrels per day.
At $40 per barrel, this
is infusing wealth very
rapidly into Russias
economy. This,
in turn, is allow-
ing Putin to pour
money into revi-
talizing Russias
military.
Russia recently
boasted that she
has developed
ballistic missile
technology that
can outwit any defensive sys-
tem on earth. This is a clear
challenge to the United States
planned $50 billion anti-missile
shield.
Russias reply to those who
say the days of her power are
over? See you at Armageddon.

T
hroughout my fifteen
years in the telecommu-
nications industry, I have
undertaken the responsibility of
designing massive telecommuni-
cations sites across the U.S. and
Europe. Technology has devel-
oped past anything I had ever
envisioned in terms of speed,
durability, and processing massive
amounts of data.
Most new networks are designed
for Voice over Internet protocol
and enormous data transfers. The
latest move now being undertaken
and in full swing is called Fiber
to the Premise. Fiber optic cable
is being installed in new hous-
ing developments with existing
neighborhoods soon to follow.
In the wake of this massive new
infrastructure will come peripheral
equipment designed to utilize fiber
optic speed and availability inside
every home in America and around
the globe. Southwestern Bell Corp.
and Verizon are in full production
of this fiber installation program.
Over the past decade, new fiber
optic networks have been built
and are in place across the planet
in preparation for this technology.
This type of fiber optic system is
far more accurate and many times
faster in processing and signal
carrying capacity than any copper
wire connection.
With this technology installed
in every home, business, and
facility in America and around
the world, the powers that be will
have the
infrastructure
in place to be able to
tap into every surveillance
gadget, bank account, and
personal information of every
type. The list of possibilities is
endless and what is possible
today may be reality tomorrow.
Scenarios
Scanners for these information
systems have already been in pro-
duction for years. Grocery stores,
gasoline stations and department
stores have been using them for
a decade. We dont even realize
they are functioning almost every
time we make
any purchase.
The possi-
bilities for the
use of these
new technolo-
gies are virtu-
ally unlimited.
The only con-
nection cur-
rently lacking
is access to
your personal
bank account.
Close this
loop, and cash
could become
a thing of the
past almost
overnight.
Some have
speculated that
a future cata-
strophic economic event could
throw us into a cashless soci-
ety. Under such a scenario, the
introduction of technology would
be embraced instantly, easing
the minds of a panicked public.
All resisters could be labeled as
troublemakers, terrorists or simply
deranged. If this scenario seems
too much of a stretch, we should
realize that society is going cash-

less on its own without a global
disaster. One thing is sure; a cash-
less society is technically feasible
and easily accomplished.
Since 9/11, uncertainty and fear
has been instilled in Americans
and people worldwide. The fear
factor may have reached a level
that one major event could cause
people to embrace knee jerk solu-
tions in order to live in what they
believe is safety and comfort.
The possibilities
Consider this possible future
chain of events:
Fiber optics is now in every
home; RFID technology for prod-
uct moving and tracking is
now the main-
stay in all industries, hav-
ing become the success that it
probably will be. Companies have
saved millions by the virtual elimi-
nation of lost and stolen mer-
chandise. Profits have risen and
stock prices increased. The media
praises RFID technology as the
solution to most of societys woes.
Terrorists and other undesirables
are weeded out and reduced to tol-
erable levels. A new level of safety
and security is felt planet-wide.
Electronic deposit of payroll
checks is universally accepted
across our country and around
the world. You can sit in front
of your computer in the comfort
of your home and shop for any-
thing by way of electronic con-
nection. With a simple scan to
verify that you are who you say
you are, your digital bank account
can be accessed immediately, an
order placed, product paid for
and shipped immediately to your
doorstep. Your groceries can be
ordered from your refrigerator
by way of bar codes or RFID
chips that tell your Internet-ready
refrigerator that your milk has
expired and that youre out of eggs
and butter. With a scan, you give
your electronic acknowledgment
to authorize the order and for the
grocery store to deliver.
Our society is now totally depen-
dent upon technology, and Big
Brother controls it all. Within a
decade of the advent
of calculators and cash registers,
math scores plummeted in our
schools, because these items did
the math for us. One can only
imagine how this new technology
will stupefy a global society.
The belief in humanism domi-
nates the worlds thinking when
humanity decides to tackle a prob-
lem, there are no limits. Man can
do anything.
How close are we to 666?
New technology being tested
today involves electronic chips in
firearms that identify the owner
by a ring he wears on his finger,
accessing a chip that activates the
firing device. Anyone attempting
to use the firearm without the
ring cannot activate the device,
thus rendering it unusable. The
same technology allows some of
todays automobiles to be entered
and started without a key by the
owner alone. This technology is
advertised by car manufacturers
every day.
Technology is leading us down a
bright road, promising us a future
of comfort and security. Presently,
an RFID tag embedded under
the skin cannot provide positive
identification. Identities can still
be stolen. Biometrics can identify
individuals with amazing accuracy,
but its not perfect. Technology
isnt quite there...yet. But solu-
tions are being discovered
every day.
New systems, such
as the ones I design
and install, pro-
vide society
with the infra-
structure for
an economic
system that can
utilize a num-
ber system in
place of cash,
checks and
credit cards.
And this is the
goal! Economics
drives it. The
Bible says that
politics will
exploit it. All that is currently lack-
ing to bring such a system online
is proof-positive identification of
each individual, such as an inject-
ed chip and a global network of
scanning devices (see Im Now
Convinced below). The goal for
completing U.S. installation is five
years.
All that would be needed for the
system to come alive is one politi-
cal decision. That is how far we
are away from the fulfillment of
the mark of the beast described in
Revelation 13.

called your program several
times to scoff at what some
of your presenters have stated
about Big Brothers abilities.
But after reading an article
entitled, Wireless Transceiver-
On-Chip Now Possible from
the EE Times, I am now con-
vinced that the final piece of
the puzzle is in place for the
global tracking of everything.
A research team from the
Wireless Integrated Micro-
systems Engineering Research
Center at the University of
Michigan says it has succeeded
in integrating the last two
components needed to create
a one-chip wireless transceiver.
It will now be possible to
manufacture hearing aide-sized
cell phones to what they call
smart dust.
The researchers expect
the technology, which was
developed with Defense
Advanced Research
Projects Agency and
National Science
Foundation funding,
to be applied in remote
wireless environmental
sensors, cell phones,
laptops and two-way
radio watches. We
think we can make
sensor nodes that
are almost invisible,
remarked one of the
team leaders. With
this technology, you
could just sprinkle
them around.
Bottom line: This
new invention allows
for all of those RFIDs
to be read anywhere in
the world and you will
never see the reader, as
it will be a little larger
than a grain of sand.
