China Rehearses For All-Out War As Satellite Images Reveal Mock US Warships, Fighter Jets, Naval Bases And Taiwanese Government Buildings Built For Target Practice

In 1941, Imperial Japan did not attack Pearl Harbor on a whim. Its pilots trained, its engineers modified torpedoes to operate in the harbor’s shallow water, and its commanders studied how to cripple the United States Pacific Fleet in one overwhelming blow. The strategic objective was simple: knock America backward long enough for Japan to seize territory, establish a defensive perimeter and present Washington with a completed conquest. Pearl Harbor was not intended to conquer America – it was intended to remove America from the battlefield at the decisive opening moment. Here in 2026, China appears to be quite busy doing the exact same thing.

“Thus saith the LORD of hosts, Behold, evil shall go forth from nation to nation, and a great whirlwind shall be raised up from the coasts of the earth.” Jeremiah 25:32 (KJB)

On this episode of the Prophecy News Podcast, satellite imagery reveals today that Beijing is building replicas of American aircraft carriers, Arleigh Burke-class destroyers, fighter aircraft, airfields and critical Taiwanese government buildings. These are not monuments to military history. They are targets. China is constructing physical representations of the enemy it expects to face, then using them to refine missile accuracy, surveillance systems, autonomous weapons and the ability to recognize and destroy specific American and Taiwanese assets. The modern Chinese equivalent of Pearl Harbor would not necessarily begin with Japanese-style aircraft appearing over Hawaii. It could begin with coordinated missile strikes against American bases in Guam, Japan and the western Pacific; cyberattacks against communications, satellites and infrastructure; strikes against U.S. carriers and destroyers; and a blockade or massive assault around Taiwan. The objective would be to blind, stun and paralyze the United States while Chinese forces move against the island. Just as Japan sought to remove the Pacific Fleet before advancing through Southeast Asia, China must remove—or intimidate—the American military presence that could prevent it from taking Taiwan. China is building American ships to destroy, American aircraft to target and Taiwanese buildings to assault. The rehearsal area is a warning written in steel, concrete and sand. Beijing is studying how to fight the United States because conquering Taiwan may require defeating America first. Don’t think that’s possible? Today’s Podcast is here to awaken you.

All because of our blessed brother’s work Geoffrey Grider who as the bravery of standing fast forward without fear of claiming the truth of God by the power of his love in Jesus Christ. May God bless you abundantly to the end my dear brother… ROMANS: 8: 36,37,38” Mireille Anderson
• “I met you at the car dealership earlier this year. We spoke briefly, then you handed me a card and told me to check out the website. You left. A few minutes later, you returned to tell me not to forget to look up the website. I told you…” I already did. I already subscribed.” In that short time we spoke, I experienced from you…a total stranger…peace, joy, kindness, gentleness, compassion, and love. I am convinced that God sent you to share the Good News that Jesus Christ is our Lord and Savior. For that, and for the work you are doing for the Kingdom of God, I say…Thank you and God Bless You.” Sonia Merced

• I just want to thank you for the teachings you give every Sunday night on radio.  You are such a blessing to me. I absolutely love your way of teaching the scriptures.  I don’t have a church where I can have fellowship and teaching, so you have been my teacher for many months now. Thanks God you are there for all of us who have no church to go to.  I pray that the Lord will bless you abundantly in your ministry, and your loved ones too.  You are such a blessing to me, and many others, in these last days before the rapture.  Thank you so much Geoffrey, from the bottom of my heart. May the Lord keep you, until He comes back for us. You are in my prayers.” Donald Godin
• “Thank you for the work  you are doing brother.  Your page and your testimony were a blessing to me this morning as I came across it for the first time.  Thank you for the reality of your testimony and what God has done for you in introducing you to Jesus our Lord.  God has brought me, in salvation, to Himself as well, through His love and mercy and grace in salvation.  How can we praise Him enough?  How can we not share this good news!?  I pray this day for God’s blessing on your ministry that He may save many souls through the work He has called you to.  Isaiah 40:31 (KJV)” Mark and Melissa

NDAA Section 219 Will Embed Israeli Technology Deep Inside The Pentagon’s Weapons, Intelligence, Cyber And Artificial Intelligence Systems

NDAA Section 219 is a proposed Pentagon-wide mechanism for permanently integrating the American and Israeli defense-technology systems. It would appoint a Department of Defense executive agent to accelerate the development, testing, procurement and deployment of Israeli-origin and jointly developed military technologies inside official U.S. weapons programs. It reaches across artificial intelligence, autonomous weapons, cyberwarfare, missile defense, surveillance, advanced sensors, data fusion, biotechnology, drones and defense manufacturing, while creating joint ventures, licensing agreements, co-production arrangements, training exercises and information-sharing channels with Israel. In practical terms, Section 219 is designed to move the U.S.–Israel alliance beyond ordinary aid and occasional weapons projects and embed Israeli technology, companies and strategic cooperation directly into the Pentagon’s permanent acquisition, industrial and operational infrastructure.

“There is no king saved by the multitude of an host: a mighty man is not delivered by much strength.” Psalm 33:16 (KJB)

The most disturbing aspect of the U.S.–Israel Defense Technology Cooperation Initiative is that it represents something far deeper than military friendship or foreign aid. It lays the foundation for a quiet technological merger between the Pentagon and the Israeli defense establishment. Israel does not need to command American troops if Israeli-designed systems increasingly control what those troops see, how threats are identified, which targets are selected and how American weapons respond. In modern warfare, the nation that controls the software, sensors, intelligence networks and artificial-intelligence systems can exercise enormous power without ever issuing a direct order.

This is how national sovereignty can be surrendered without a treaty, an invasion or a public announcement. Israeli technology enters the American military as a solution—missile defense, cybersecurity, drones, surveillance, data fusion and autonomous targeting—but once embedded inside official Pentagon programs, it becomes part of America’s military nervous system. Shared patents, proprietary software, classified algorithms, joint factories and interconnected supply chains could make the United States progressively dependent upon a foreign government and its defense contractors. Washington would remain sovereign on paper while losing the practical ability to operate independently.

Former congressman Dennis Kucinich on the US-Israel Defense Tech Cooperation Initiative contained in NDAA Section 219. “You could almost say this is a takeover. Netanyahu will have the ability to direct the US Military (through technology). This is totally unprecedented” pic.twitter.com/V5yGrTiRO4

— Now The End Begins (@NowTheEndBegins) July 14, 2026

The deeper danger is political capture. Once billions of dollars, congressional districts, defense contractors, military departments and Israeli corporations become attached to these joint programs, the machinery begins protecting itself. Every new contract creates another lobbyist, another factory, another government office and another reason that the relationship cannot be questioned. A future president might discover that challenging Israel would not simply cause a diplomatic dispute—it could interrupt weapons production, intelligence sharing, cyber defenses and critical military systems. At that point, Israel would not need formal authority over the United States military because America’s defense establishment would already be structured around preserving the relationship.

The real transfer of power would not happen through command—it would happen through dependency. And by the time the American people recognized how deeply the two systems had been joined together, separating them might no longer be possible.

The darkest interpretation is that Section 219 is building the architecture of an undeclared joint military operating system: Israeli battlefield technology and intelligence fused with American money, manufacturing capacity and global military reach. The American flag would still fly over the Pentagon, American generals would still stand before the cameras, and the chain of command would still appear unchanged. But behind the visible structure, the machines, networks and algorithms through which American power operates could become inseparable from Israeli technology and Israeli strategic interests. We support the nation of Israel, but this would be a catastrophic mistake.

Jeffrey Epstein And His Friends: Was The Trafficking Operation Only The Visible Front Of A Vast Global Network Built On Money, Secrets, Influence And Protection?

Jeffrey Epstein was not merely a lone predator with money and famous friends. He was the operating hub of a much larger ecosystem built on access, secrecy, influence, money and compromise. He connected worlds that normally remain separate—politics, finance, royalty, academia, intelligence, philanthropy and sexual corruption—and made those worlds useful to one another. That was his real value. He was not important because he was the richest man in the room; he was important because he knew who wanted what, who feared exposure, who needed introductions and who could be controlled. Everyone looks at the Epstein List, sees credible accusations of pedophilia, and then they stop looking, thereby enabling the real issue to remain untouched, unresolved, and most importanly, undiscovered. I think that’s exactly how they set it up to protect themselves.

“And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them.” Ephesians 5:11 (KJB)

On this episode of the Prophecy News Podcast, we ask a terrifying question: what if Jeffrey Epstein’s crimes against children, as horrific as they were, represented only the visible front of something far larger? What if behind the trafficking operation stood an international network of financiers, politicians, military and intelligence figures, celebrities, entertainers and sports power brokers, and even the Mafia – people bound together not merely by association, but by money, access, secrets, leverage and mutual protection? Epstein was the broker who connected multiple corrupt networks, gave powerful people access to one another, gathered information about their weaknesses and provided the secrecy that allowed the entire system to operate. The real mystery is not simply who flew on his plane or visited his properties. It is who financed him, who protected him, who benefited from his operation, what information he collected—and why the complete truth remains hidden even after his death. One of the proofs staring us right in the face is the refusal by anyone, in any government, anywhere in the world, to bring a single crime mentioned in the millions of pages of the Epstein Files to justice. Why? They didn’t all abuse children, obviously, but all of them benefitted and profitted from the criminal network they willingly became a part of, and are now forced to remain silent or the whole thing will come undone. Welcome to the real-life Blacklist, and it goes so much deeper than you can possibly imagine.
