'The Death of America' may be looming upon us

Prophet Joe Biden has been right on exactly one thing since Obama picked him as vice president. He predicted shortly after winning the election, foreign despots would challenge the rookie President with an international crisis. But Biden should have used the plural instead of the singular.

Here on this Memorial Day, there's enough international crises on America's plate to feed a hog. We're still in the middle of the war on terror with troops fighting in Iraq and Afghanistan. Iran's working on building a nuclear bomb, this morning North Korea tested a bigger bomb than the last one they set off, and what is Obama doing about it? He'll probably pull out all the stops and -- make another speech. That'll show 'em not to mess with Barack, won't it?

But as worrisome as North Korea is, and it's bad, what Iran will do if allowed to get the bomb is just unthinkable. They will destroy the nation of Israel on day two after they get the bomb.

And what is Obama doing about this threat to our nation's only true friend in the Middle East?

Worse than nothing. He and his administration are trying their best to force Israel to meekly submit to their own destruction under his watch. Dick Morris and Eileen McGann have the low-down in their report today, which is chillingly titled The Death of Israel.

From Caroline Glick, deputy editor and op-ed writer for the Jerusalem Post, comes alarming news. An expert on Arab-Israeli relations with excellent sources deep inside Netanyahu's government, she reports that CIA chief Leon Panetta, who recently took time out from his day job (feuding with Nancy Pelosi) to travel to Israel "read the riot act" to the government warning against an attack on Iran.

More ominously, Glick reports (likely from sources high up in the Israeli government) that the Obama administration has all but accepted as irreversible and unavoidable fact that Iran will soon develop nuclear weapons. She writes, "...we have learned that the [Obama] administration has made its peace with Iran's nuclear aspirations. Senior administration officials acknowledge as much in off-record briefings. It is true, they say, that Iran may exploit its future talks with the US to run down the clock before they test a nuclear weapon. But, they add, if that happens, the US will simply have to live with a nuclear-armed mullocracy."...

All this means is that Israel's life is in danger. If Iran gets the bomb, it will use it to kill six million Jews. No threat of retaliation will make the slightest difference. One cannot deter a suicide bomber with the threat of death. Nor can one deter a theocracy bent on meriting admission to heaven and its virgins by one glorious act of violence. Iran would probably not launch the bomb itself, anyway, but would give it to its puppet terrorists to send to Israel so it could deny responsibility. Obama, bent on appeasement, would likely not retaliate with nuclear weapons. And Israel will be dead and gone.

And if America abandons Israel, God will abandon America. I didn't say that, God did. Long ago, God called a man named Abram, who God later renamed Abraham, to leave his pagan past behind and begin a journey to he knew not where, to become the founder of a new nation.

¹ The LORD had said to Abram, "Leave your country, your people and your father's household and go to the land I will show you.

² "I will make you into a great nation and I will bless you;
I will make your name great, and you will be a blessing.

³ I will bless those who bless you, and whoever curses you I will curse;
and all peoples on earth will be blessed through you."

America was founded on religious freedom and from the refounding of Israel in 1948 to the present, America has been a friend of that nation. But if under the leadership of Barack Obama, America abandons Israel, God will abandon America, just as He promised Abram so long ago.

Pray hard for our country this Memorial Day and pray hard for the nation of Israel also. God has a plan and Israel will not be destroyed, which the Bible makes very clear. But there's nothing that I can find in the Bible that points to the nation of America having a role of any type in the great conclusion of recorded history which I believe is upon is. Perhaps Obama's curse is why.

Answer to 'Biggest Question in the Universe'

"In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. And God said, Let there be light: and there was light." Genesis 1:1-3.

Guess what NASA's cosmologists have finally figured out? God was right! We're living in the part of the universe where the light is and cosmologists discovered that's only 1 percent. The rest is 3 percent gas and the other 96 percent is this strange stuff called ... darkness!

Let's see, three times as much gas as light, surrounded by a whole bunch of darkness. Sounds more like Washington than the universe.

The Washington Post gives the details of this startling breakthrough in And Now, the Biggest Question in the Universe

The working explanation, though by no means the definitive one, is that everything we know -- the whole cosmic fabric ranging from your coffee cup to the sun to entire clusters of galaxies -- is only about 1 percent of what's actually out there. Another 3 percent or so is hot interstellar gas we can see because it radiates X-rays and radio waves. Then things start getting weird. An invisible substance called dark matter, possibly phenomena such as giant black holes and unseen particles, is thought to compose 22 percent of the cosmos. Everything else, almost three-quarters of the total, is dark energy, a force that is apparently driving the universe apart.

Of course, the NASA scientists aren't satisfied with God's answer. They're trying to figure out just what all this darkness "stuff" is made of. Personally, I'm much more interested in the 3 percent of gas surrounding us here in the light. If we could burn that stuff... free energy!

NASA Astrophysicist Gary Hinshaw says figuring out what all that strange dark stuff is will answer the two biggest questions of all.

"I think it's one of the classic questions of human civilization: Where do we come from, and why are we here?" Hinshaw said.

News flash! God already told us that, too. We were created by God is where we came from and the reason we are here is to glorify Him. All the rest is just groping in the darkness surrounding us. But you gotta be a dumb ol' redneck like me to be satisfied with God's answers.
