Buckle Up and settle in Ya'll... Israel is going to be in the news for a while. -----------------------------------
""UN watchdog chief warns world Iran’s ‘pressing gas pedal’ on nuclear program.
The United Nations nuclear watchdog chief is warning world leaders that Iran’s recent promise to ramp up enrichment of uranium to nuclear weapons grade levels is well underway. Rafael Grossi, the International Atomic Energy Agency Director General, said, “Iran has moved into increasing the production, enrichment of 60% sevenfold.”
Grossi added, “So, I think this is a clear indication of an acceleration. They are pressing the gas pedal.”
Grossi told reporters at the World Economic Forum in Davos on Tuesday, Jan. 21, Iran told the U.N. nuclear watchdog in December 2024 that it would rapidly increase uranium enrichment to around 90% purity.
The IAEA said about 42kg of uranium enriched to that level is enough to create one nuclear bomb.
Grossi said Iran currently has about 200 kg of uranium enriched up to 60%.
The warning from Grossi comes after French President Emmanuel Macron cautioned Western and European allies that Tehran is reaching a “point of no return” in its pursuit of nuclear-weapon-grade uranium earlier in January 2025.
Grossi called on Tehran and the Trump administration to begin talks to deter Iran from going further with its nuclear program.
It remains to be seen if President Donald Trump, who took a hardline with Iran during his first term, or Tehran will be open to a discussion.
Iran has repeatedly denied it is enriching uranium to make a nuclear weapon and claims that it is being used for peaceful purposes."" -------------------------------------
Of course, nobody remembers the promise Netanyahu made regarding Iran's nuclear ambitions...
Rev: 3-14 "These are the words of the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the ruler of God’s creation. I know your deeds, that you are neither cold nor hot. I wish you were either one or the other! So, because you are lukewarm—neither hot nor cold—I am about to spit you out of my mouth. You say, ‘I am rich; I have acquired wealth and do not need a thing.’ But you do not realize that you are wretched, pitiful, poor, blind and naked."
Was Christ speaking of a church from 2000yrs ago? Or, since this is the book of Revelation, was He describing the church of "our" age? Consider the arrogance of any church to proclaim, "I am wealthy and need nothing," in an age when all of God's creation has been claimed by the wealthy; In an age when literally everything under the sun is only valued as potential profit.
When only the rich can afford to own what the Earth has to offer, and there's nothing left to buy or sell... what comes next?
Biologic Capital..?
I see nothing out there Just smoke and screams I feel nothing in here Just death it seems
All that wasted time Nobody cares God is unimpressed with Empty prayers
So easy to take credit for positive regard A smile is no threat So clever is a lie that sounds like good intentions Unremitting debt
Life so cheap and fallible War so grimly casual Grief so simply laughable Greed so bloody rational Biologic Capital...
No hope for the future here Buyer beware Father of lies never sleeps The rich don't care
There's nothing out there Just smoke and screams There's nothing in here Just death it seems
Call It What You Want Be kind and understanding when you step on people’s toes Place is loud and it is crowded and you know the way it goes Next thing boyfriend takes offence To something you hadn’t meant And sure enough you’ll feel it all tomorrow
Be buoyant and triumphant when you’re bouncing on the waves Hope that folks won’t feel the same way dancing on your grave Nothing ’s ever really clear Even as we stand revealed Programmed little children who’ve been sent outside to play
Where there’s evil imitation there’s a line up in the hall Sometimes toxic, biologic, firing synapses on full Sometimes second glances rule Sometimes bigger glaring looks Come from those would be bigger overlords
Nobody is just one thing not all is as it appears So be it if I’m a monster if that’s what’s in the mirror But inside’s entirely different place Different circumstance and phase No longer little children who’ve been sent outside to play
Where there’s evil imitation there’s a line up in the hall Sometimes toxic, biologic, firing synapses on full Sometimes second glances rule Sometimes bigger glaring looks Come from those who would be bigger overlords
If writing ever becomes work I think I'm going to have to stop

Call it what you want...
Be polite when challenging authority. If you offend one, you'll regret offending all.
Celebrate success, but hope not to be celebrated in failure. You never know who to trust outside.
There's no shortage of evil or treacherous minds. Be wary of an overlord's attention.
There may be an angel or a demon in my mirror; Whatever.... Circumstance holds me to account on the inside.

I'm actually trying to understand this, JV... Do I have this right?
Hmmmn.... Is it just my imagination, or are more and more politicians and MSM personalities paying lip-service to Christians?
I'm not complaining, it's better than the usual "anti-religion" rhetoric. However, a lot of what I'm seeing seems so forced and choreographed; Or, it's so warm, fuzzy, "feel good with a smile", and generic that it's easily disregarded as typical meaningless crap...
Where are all the real, Spirit filled and led, blessed just to be forgiven, Hell fire and brimstone CHRISTIANS at?

If we make the rules and were in control If all we can lose is an empty soul..... 1) Then why should I be loyal if none are greater than me What is there to obey but my own vanity 2) I'll claim my own image, my name shall be adored And be equal to my pride, an idol for the world 3) I'll assume authority by all that is divine Disregarding ancient truth and claim all wisdom is mine 4) My desire will drive me on fortune's endless quest Drunk on the wine of fame my greed will never rest 5) My parents I will blame, the elders I will scorn For holding me to task from the day I was born 6) I'll be free to live my life loving all who follow me Hating all who criticize and all who came before me 7) I'll marry whom I choose and love all whom I will I'll command an army of flesh to march just for the thrill 8) I'll tear down all the walls and open all the cages Liars, thieves, and friends in need loyal to freedoms wages 9) The lie will be the truth, the truth will be for sale I'll revel in inequity and deny the fires of Hell 10) All will serve my pleasure and covet what they see I'll bear witness to every lust and keep them enthralled to me If we make the rules and were in control If all we can lose is an empty soul.....
LOL... WELCOME TO THE SHOW! "No God Allowed" is the only rule, and both are perfectly/politically entitled to their own opinion!
No wonder the "good news" falls on deaf ears...
God's plan is music to the faithful, and a mystery to those who wander the earth...
2 THESSALONIANS 2 The Man of Lawlessness
"Concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our being gathered to him, we ask you, brothers and sisters, not to become easily unsettled or alarmed by the teaching allegedly from us—whether by a prophecy or by word of mouth or by letter—asserting that the day of the Lord has already come. Don’t let anyone deceive you in any way, for that day will not come until the rebellion occurs and the man of lawlessness a is revealed, the man doomed to destruction. He will oppose and will exalt himself over everything that is called God or is worshiped, so that he sets himself up in God’s temple, proclaiming himself to be God.
Don’t you remember that when I was with you I used to tell you these things? Now you know what is holding him back, so that he may be revealed at the proper time. For the secret power of lawlessness is already at work; but the one who now holds it back will continue to do so till he is taken out of the way. Then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord Jesus will overthrow with the breath of his mouth and destroy by the splendor of his coming. The coming of the lawless one will be in accordance with how Satan works. He will use all sorts of displays of power through signs and wonders that serve the lie, and all the ways that wickedness deceives those who are perishing. They perish because they refused to love the truth and so be saved. For this reason God sends them a powerful delusion so that they will believe the lie, and so that all will be condemned who have not believed the truth but have delighted in wickedness."
Trump just took over The Kennedy Center, filled the board with cronies, and installed himself as chair.
He has appointed himself as arbiter of culture "(Trump) We took over the Kennedy Center. We didn’t like what they were showing and various other things,” Trump said Monday. “I’m going to be chairman of it, and we’re going to make sure that it’s good and it’s not going to be ‘woke.’”
1) "we" ???? is that the "royal we" 2) as Putin is his new pal, Trump is taking the Soviet playbook to only allow art...books...painting...music....that supports "The State" 3) many good people have resigned positions or will not participate in any programming 4) only yes men and sycophants are now running the place
So in the future, it will be Trump's mouthpiece and will lose its relevance as a place for art and become instead a place for artists to avoid.
Now IF you want to make it big as a musician in the US, all past advice goes out the window.
Call your local Republican with a pro MAGA Golden AGE Let's &(*&) Over The World song....I am positive they will finance it all for you. Just make sure you write that Trump is al powerful and always right. If you can creatye a memolrable soundbite with a pithy line, that will put it over the top.
Here is a start for you
Putin The Great, put Ukraine in its place And now the big pile on will include the USA Turn the page, we're in our Golden Age And thank you John Roberts for the help that you gave

"Money is worst reason to be motivated NOT to do anything. Instead of letting those concerns STOP you, use it to motivate yourself to find an alternate solution that bypasses money. You will soon find that your own resourcefulness is worth far more than a pile of paper money." –Brian Austin Whitney
