The Army wants to make sure drivers entering bases through automated checkpoints are, in fact, who they claim to be, and is developing a new biometric camera system to assist.

Facial recognition is not new, when I worked for Citi ten years ago, we had to sign ourselves in and out of the main building via facial recognition. But back then it was the exception, in our day we will watch it become the rule, and the ‘new normal’. Biometric technology is here to stay because Revelation 13 says the Mark of the Beast is a biometric currency controller. Pretty good ‘guess’ for 96 AD, wouldn’t you say? With all of our ‘technological advances’, we still haven’t caught up with that archaic, dusty old King James Bible.

“And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.” Revelation 13:16-18 (KJB)

If you want to know what’s coming next on the end times timeline, you need to turn off that idiot box with its fake news and demonic agenda, and open your King James Bible which is a ‘lamp unto you feet’, and a ‘light unto you path’. You would be left in the darkness with the light of the glorious gospel of the grace of God to lead your way for you.

Army Wants to Automate Base Access With Facial Recognition at Drive-Thru Checkpoints

FROM NEXTGOV: The military branch issued a call on its Small Business Innovation Research, or SBIR, broad agency announcement—a contract vehicle used for working with small businesses on phased, iterative development programs—seeking early-stage design for a camera system able to pull usable images of drivers approaching checkpoints and matching those photos against a facial biometric database.

“The results would be displayed to the guard with a photo of the driver indicating an access granted or access denied response in time to allow uninterrupted vehicle traffic flow for approved users,” the call states.

For this specific use, the Army would compare the images taken by the camera with a preset gallery of approved entrants. This method threads the needle between one-to-one verification methods, which compare a new image with known photos of a person to verify their identity, and one-to-many identification algorithms, which compare an image to a broad database in search of the person’s identity.

This middle ground—used by other government agencies like Customs and Border Protection for their Entry/Exit facial recognition program—has a higher accuracy rate than one-to-many, so long as the environment allows for capture of a usable image.

For the Army’s automated checkpoints, this will be a significant factor. The solution must be able to accurately capture a facial image through a windshield “in various weather conditions during the day and nighttime,” the call states. The first phase will last six months, with a ceiling of $259,613 per proposal.

The second phase includes developing and demoing a prototype system on a government-built simulated checkpoint. By that point, the system must be able to identify passengers with a 100% success rate.

The third phase will focus on deploying the system at specific Army facilities. The original BAA includes additional information about the various phases. In a separate call on the same BAA, Army contracting officials asked for proposals to automate the cleaning of biometric data in the Defense Department’s Automated Biometric Identification System, or ABIS, the main biometric database used by the military.

“Much of this input is from old and nearing obsolescence, legacy collection systems that do not limit inputs that are incorrect or limit in any meaningful way based on image capture quality,” the second call states. “For this reason, the authoritative data base includes a large number of biometric records with errors, missing data or low-quality images.”

The DOD is embarking on a three- to five-year effort “to first, cleanse the data, and second, to continue to assess all incoming data, in order to rank and associate a data quality score for all images in the data base.”

The first phase of that program will focus on design concepts for machine-learning tools that can identify and rank the quality of data within ABIS. Future phases will focus on developing working prototypes and realigning existing systems to work with this new solution. Questions for both calls are due by noon May 4. Proposals for both will be accepted through noon May 18. READ MORE

United Nations General Assembly Expected To Upgrade Palestinian Statehood Status As United Arab Emirates Prepare Resolution To Advance

Published

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

The United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) is expected to upgrade the Palestinian status at the UN, granting it almost all statehood rights within its plenum short of allowing it to vote.

The world draws closer and closer to the forced creation of a Palestinian state that the Old Testament prophets said would exist in the last days. This is where we are, right now, as you read this. Your King James Bible is the only one that shows you a living, breathing, literal, actual state of Palestine in the end times. The corrupt versions like the ESV, NIV, LSB and even the compromiser’s favorite, the NKJV, all erase the word Palestine and Palestina from their texts. But your King James 1611 357 is fully-loaded, aim and ready to fire. Pull the trigger.

“Yea, and what have ye to do with me, O Tyre, and Zidon, and all the coasts of Palestine? will ye render me a recompence? and if ye recompense me, swiftly and speedily will I return your recompence upon your own head;” Joel 3:4 (KJB)

“The people shall hear, and be afraid: sorrow shall take hold on the inhabitants of Palestina.” Exodus 15:14 (KJB)

Rejoice not thou, whole Palestina, because the rod of him that smote thee is broken: for out of the serpent’s root shall come forth a cockatrice, and his fruit shall be a fiery flying serpent.” Isaiah 14:29 (KJB)

Howl, O gate; cry, O city; thou, whole Palestinaart dissolved: for there shall come from the north a smoke, and none shall be alone in his appointed times.” Isaiah 14:31 (KJB)

Aren’t you glad that you have a Bible you can trust? Why do all the modern versions erase the words ‘Palestine’ and ‘Palestine’ and replace them with ‘Philistines’ and ‘Philistia’? Because in 2024 there is no nation anywhere on this Earth called Philistia, they leave you stuck back in the past with the prophetic links broken. But my King James Bible clearly shows me a land called Palestine in 2024, a land that will be created very soon when Israel is parted by her enemies. The modern versions will never tell you that.

UNGA expected to upgrade Palestinian statehood status

FROM THE JERUSALEM POST: The United Arab Emirates is expected to submit a resolution, a draft text of which was seen by The Jerusalem Post, calling on the United Nations Security Council to grant Palestine full membership status in the UN.

The text, which is likely to have majority support, states that “Palestine is qualified for membership in the United Nations in accordance with article 4 of the Charter and should therefore be admitted to membership in the United Nations.”

The Palestinian Authority, through the UAE, turned to the General Assembly after the United States vetoed its membership application to the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) last month. The US is one of five permanent UNSC members with veto power. The UAE resolution “recommends” that the Security Council “reconsider the matter favorably,” but in essence, its text seeks to circumvent the UNSC’s sole power to determine UN membership.

According to the current draft of the resolution, this Friday, the UNGA would grant Palestine the right to operate within its plenum as a member state, granting it almost everything but the right to vote, which would need UNSC approval.

The resolution affirms “the right of the Palestinian people to self-determination, including the right to their independent State of Palestine.” In practice, the State of Palestine could be seated among the member states and be granted broad rights to address the plenum on its behalf or that of groups.

The Palestinians could submit resolutions, proposals, and amendments on their own behalf or on behalf of groups within the UN system. If the resolution is approved, the Palestinians could also participate in high-level meetings and international conferences, where they would have voting rights.

Western states, especially the United States, have opposed unilateral recognition of Palestinian statehood, believing that it should be granted upon completion of a final status peace agreement for the two states. Given that negotiations for a two-state resolution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict have been frozen for a decade and in light of the Gaza war, there is growing support among Western states for unilateral Palestinian statehood.

Joe Biden Defiantly Declares United States Will Not Supply Israel With Weapons They Need To Rout Hamas From Rafah, Causing Geopolitical Shock Waves

Published

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

US President Joe Biden said Wednesday that his administration will not support Israel or provide it with offensive weapons if it launches an operation against Hamas in populated parts of the southern Gaza city of Rafah.

Just about every war is ultimately pointless when you factor in the number of people who have to die to fight it, but that said, what is the point to waging war, any war, that is never completed? America waged a useless, brutal war in Vietnam for a decade that was never finished and certainly never won. But North Vietnamese don’t live on any border of the United States, Hamas is literally on top of the Jews in Israel.

Is he the God of the Jews only? is he not also of the Gentiles? Yes, of the Gentiles also:” Romans 3:28 (KJB)

Joe Biden is attempting to stand by the Jews while at the same time preventing his Far Left pro-Palestinian base from storming the White House in protest, a fate he will likely not avoid given the current hostile climate of antisemitism that’s sweeping the county at the moment. The entire war Israel has waged against Hamas for the better part of a year now will be in vain if Hamas is allowed to remain in Rafah. Saying you support the Jews and then dumping them when they need you the most is not support by any definition.

Joe Biden: The US won’t give Israel offensive weapons to attack in populated parts of Rafah

FROM THE TIMES OF ISRAEL: The interview marked Biden’s toughest public comments yet on the matter, as concern has grown in the administration that Israel is not planning to heed US warnings against a major offensive that the White House feels wouldn’t take into account the million-plus Palestinians sheltering in Gaza’s southernmost city.

“I’ve made it clear to Bibi (Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu) and the war cabinet: They’re not going to get our support if they go into these population centers,” Biden told CNN.

The remarks also appeared to amount to a threat by Biden to make permanent the hold his administration placed last week on a transfer of 2,000- and 500-pound bombs to Israel over concerns that the IDF could use them in densely populated Rafah, as is has in other parts of Gaza.

Asked, “Have those bombs been used to kill civilians in Gaza,” Biden responded that they had. “Civilians have been killed in Gaza as a consequence of those bombs and other ways in which [Israel] goes after population centers,” he said, without elaborating on the strikes in which they were killed.

“I made it clear that if they go into Rafah… I’m not supplying the weapons that have been used historically to deal with Rafah, to deal with the cities, to deal with that problem,” Biden said.

He distinguished, though, between a potential full-on incursion into Rafah and the operation launched by the IDF earlier this week that was limited to the Rafah border crossing, but noted that “it’s causing problems with (bordering) Egypt.”

“But it’s just wrong. We’re not going to supply the weapons and artillery shells,” Biden asserted.

He clarified that the US will continue supplying Iron Dome missile interceptors and other defensive weapons to ensure that Israel can respond to attacks from adversaries across the region, such as last month’s massive missile and drone barrage from Iran.

“We’re not walking away from Israel’s security. We’re walking away from Israel’s ability to wage war in [populated] areas,” he said.

Asked if Israel has crossed his red line regarding its conduct in Gaza, Biden responded “Not yet,” but indicated Jerusalem was as close as it has ever come following last week’s weapons shipment holdup. Netanyahu and other Israeli leaders have said an offensive in Rafah is necessary to win the war against Hamas, which was triggered by the terror group’s October 7 onslaught. According to Israeli defense officials, four of Hamas’s six remaining battalions are in Rafah, along with members of the terror group’s leadership and a significant number of the hostages it abducted from Israel.

IT’S OFFICIAL: Boy Scouts Rebrand Themselves As The Genderless ‘Scouting America’ In Violation Of Their Own Oath To Remain ‘Morally Straight’

Published

on

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

After 114 years of being known as the Boy Scouts of America, the nation’s largest scouting organization is changing its name to the more inclusive and genderless Scouting America.

As a young child, nearly everyone in my family growing up was very much involved in the Boy Scouts. Me and all my brothers were Boy Scouts, having entered into the ranks as first Cub Scouts, then Webelos, and finally as an official Boy Scout. How exciting it all was! My father was a Boy Scout leader of Troop 38, and my mom was a Den Mother in Pack 38 for the Cub Scouts. Here in 2024, if you have any children involved in any area of organized scouting, pull them out as fast as you can and don’t look back. The whole thing is now the child recruiting arm for the LGBTQIA2SL++ Movement.

“This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.” 2 Timothy 3:1 (KJB)

When I was a Boy Scout, this was the oath we would say at every meeting “On my honor I will do my best to do my duty to God and my country and to obey the Scout Law; to help other people at all times; to keep myself physically strong, mentally awake, and morally straight.” How on Earth can you do your ‘duty to God’ and be a part of an organization that mocks God to His face? How is it possible to take an oath to remain ‘morally straight’ when you are in a group that has become amoral? When Adolf Hitler formulated his long-range plan to take over Germany, he rightly understood that to capture a nation, you need first to capture a generation of children. He did this with the establishment of his Hitler Youth corps in 1920, almost an exact copy of the Boy Scouts. Scouting America, as it is now called, seeks to recruit a generation of children to serve in the end times army of Antichrist. Do not let your child be their victim.

Boy Scouts rebrands as the genderless Scouting America

FROM MICROSOFT START: The major rebrand, announced Tuesday, comes after years of turmoil for the organization, as well as major changes meant to stem the tide of declining membership. The new Scouting America name is also a reflection of the organization’s biggest change: the decision five years ago to welcome girls into its ranks at all levels.

Visitors to the Boy Scouts of America website Tuesday were greeted by a pop-up message explaining that the forthcoming name change was made to be more welcoming of the entire scouting community and would take effect Feb. 8, 2025.

“Though our name will be new, our mission remains unchanged: we are committed to teaching young people to be Prepared. For Life,” Roger A. Krone, president and chief executive of Scouting America, said in a statement Tuesday. “This will be a simple but very important evolution as we seek to ensure that everyone feels welcome in Scouting.”

For years, the Boy Scouts have faced pressure from progressive members and outside groups to be more accepting, not just of girls but of LGBTQ scouts and troop leaders. The Boy Scouts ended its longtime ban on openly gay Scouts in 2013 and its prohibition on gay troop leaders in 2015. Two years later, the organization announced that it would allow transgender boys in its ranks.

In 2020, the Boy Scouts were rocked by public revelations that more than 84,000 people alleged that they were sexually abused while in the Scouts, with some claims dating as far back as the 1960s. The Scouts reached an historic $850 million settlement with victims after declaring Chapter 11 bankruptcy in the face of mounting legal claims. According to the Scouts 2023 annual report, the organization had more than 1 million children and young adults ages 5 to 20 enrolled in its membership programs. READ MORE

The Boy Scouts are working to become more inclusive and to drive up membership numbers following bankruptcy filings amid sexual abuse claims.
