SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

Just days before Israel was to hold national elections, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu promised to annex parts of the West Bank as Israeli territory. Now he has the clout to keep it.

There are few people on this planet who are having a better week than newly-reelected Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu. Not only did he win an historic election which will make him the longest server leader of Israel, but he has had a giddy two-and-a-half years of watching a dizzying array of items from his ‘dream list‘ being granted him by American president Donald Trump. So the question now is, just how far will Netanyahu really go?

“Be it known unto the king, that we went into the province of Judea, to the house of the great God, which is builded with great stones, and timber is laid in the walls, and this work goeth fast on, and prospereth in their hands. Then asked we those elders, and said unto them thus, Who commanded you to build this house, and to make up these walls?” Ezra 5:9 (KJV)

As bible believers, we known for a fact that all of the land of Israel belongs to the Jews, and that in the Millennial Reign of King Jesus from Jerusalem, that Israel will once again fill the borders of God’s original land grant to Abraham. Netanyahu has zero interest in a Two-State Solution, and I believe he will spend his newly-minted political capital on expanding Israel’s borders in a very meaningful way. And why not? This is likely his last term, he knows it, now he goes for the really big fish.

Of course, given the global hatred for Israel, as Netanyahu begins to makes these moves, expect to see huge backlash from the United Nations and other anti-semitic groups. These are the days of prophecy, and a very exciting time to be alive and looking for the Lord’s return to come catch His Bride away before the time of Jacob’s trouble.

NETANYAHU’S PROMISE TO ANNEX THE WEST BANK SETTLEMENTS, EXPLAINED

FROM THE JERUSALEM POST: “I’m going to extend sovereignty,” Benjamin Netanyahu said in an interview with Israeli Channel 12 on Saturday night, adding that “I don’t differentiate between the settlement blocs and isolated settlements.”

The campaign promise is a last-minute bid to draw right-wing votes in a tight election race. But what does annexing West Bank settlements mean? How would it affect Israeli-Palestinian peace talks, and the general geography of the Jewish state? Will it actually happen?

Here’s what you need to know.

What is the West Bank?

The West Bank is a territory sandwiched between Israel and Jordan named for its location: the western bank of the Jordan River. About 2.5 million Palestinians and 400,000 Jewish Israelis live there.

Jordan conquered the West Bank after Israel’s 1948 War of Independence. Then Israel captured the territory from Jordan in the 1967 Six-Day War, but never fully annexed it into the country. So for more than 50 years, the West Bank has been controlled by Israel, but its status has been under debate.

The debate is over who should control the area in the future. Palestinians, most of the international community and the Israeli left see it now as occupied Palestinian territory. They say Israel’s control is illegal and want the West Bank (or nearly all of it) to be the site of a Palestinian state. But Israel’s government says it rightfully controls the West Bank.

So is the West Bank part of Israel?

Not officially, no. The State of Israel has controlled the area, sometimes known in Israel by its biblical name, Judea and Samaria, for half a century without annexing it. That is what could change if Netanyahu wins and makes good on his promise.

Many Israelis believe it’s already part of the country. The Israeli right, and some Israel supporters abroad, see the West Bank as disputed territory that doesn’t belong to Palestinians. They say Israel controls it legally because it was won in a defensive war — the third in the country’s first 20 years of existence.

And religious Zionist Israelis (who are mostly on the right) often talk about the West Bank as the heartland of the biblical Land of Israel. Historically, and by Jewish tradition, this is where the Jewish patriarchs lived and where many of the events of the Bible took place.

“In the same day the LORD made a covenant with Abram, saying, Unto thy seed have I given this land, from the river of Egypt unto the great river, the river Euphrates: The Kenites, and the Kenizzites, and the Kadmonites, And the Hittites, and the Perizzites, and the Rephaims, And the Amorites, and the Canaanites, and the Girgashites, and the Jebusites.” Genesis 15:18-21 (KJV)

WHO’S OCCUPYING WHO? LET’S LOOK AT GOD’S ORIGINAL LAND GRANT OF THE NATION OF ISRAEL TO ABRAHAM

Hold on. So it isn’t technically part of Israel, but Israelis live there?

Yes: Welcome to the settlements. After Israel conquered the West Bank, groups of Jews from left to right established villages there. Some of the settlements deep in the West Bank are fiercely ideological and religious communities. Many others are middle-class suburbs of Jerusalem and Tel Aviv, distinguishable from pre-1967 Israel only by their location and some added security measures.

Most of the big settlements (and most of the settlers) are close to the Green Line — the name for the internationally agreed-upon border between the West Bank and Israel. The total population of the settlements has grown to more than 400,000 today.

Most of the international community sees the settlements as illegal. Palestinians see the settlements as colonies that prevent them from achieving statehood, and blame the residents there for inflicting violence on them. The settlers and their defenders see the settlements as a security bulwark against Palestinian terrorism in the West Bank and Israel.

And Israel’s government sees the settlements as legitimate. Religious Israelis say that the settlements are a manifestation of Jews returning to the land God gave them.

Where does that leave the Palestinians?

Here’s where it gets even more complicated. Palestinians do not have citizenship in Israel, the right to vote and freedom of movement. They are under varying degrees of Israeli control.

For about 25 years, the West Bank has been divided into three areas. Area A is fully under Palestinian control — run by Palestinian institutions, guarded by Palestinian security forces and subject to Palestinian laws. The Israeli army does conduct operations there, but its presence is relatively minimal.

Area B is mixed: subject to Palestinian civil laws, but under the control of the Israeli army. The vast majority of Palestinians live in Areas A and B.

Area C is everything else, and it’s fully controlled by the Israeli army. This is where all of the settlers, and a small number of Palestinians, live. It takes up about 60 percent of the West Bank’s total land area.

The three areas aren’t neatly sliced. They are interspersed with each other in a maze-like tapestry.

How would annexation change things?

Annexation would make some or all of the settlements officially part of Israel. This is a huge deal.

For 50 years, Israel has been holding the West Bank in a kind of temporary capacity and repeatedly has offered to cede nearly all of it in a peace agreement. This would make the annexed settlements as much a part of Israel — under Israeli law — as Tel Aviv. In Israel’s eyes, there would be no difference between the annexed settlements and the rest of the country.

The international community would likely protest annexation, and strongly, and Palestinians almost surely would. Commanders for Israel’s Security, a group of retired Israeli military officers that supports establishing a Palestinian state, predicts that annexation will lead to the collapse of the Palestinian Authority, which governs the Palestinian areas of the West Bank. The group says annexing all of the settlements will cost Israel $2.35 billion. READ MORE

OVER THE TARGET: Supreme Leader Of Iran Ayatollah Ali Khamenei Has Fled To Underground Bunker As Threat Of Airstrikes From The United States Heats Up

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has gone underground, reportedly hiding out in a bunker out of fear of being wiped out by US airstrikes — as the USS Abraham Lincoln steams toward the Persian Gulf.

We are living in a time of kings and kingdoms shaking before judgment, as neither flesh nor blood but principalities are visibly at war on the earth. In today’s headlines, there are multiple reports that Iran’s Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has moved to a fortified underground shelter because of the growing threat of military action from the United States, including a U.S. carrier strike group steaming toward the Middle East.

“And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.” Matthew 24:6 (KJB)

The Iranian regime, for decades antagonistic to both Israel and the U.S., now faces internal collapse and external pressure. The Iranian Revolutionary Guard has bluntly stated its force has its “finger on the trigger” and remains ready to respond, while Iranian officials have warned that “any attack on Khamenei would be treated as all-out war.” Usually, Iran is just bluffing, and in an head-on confrontation they usually back down. But one of these days, mark my words, they won’t, and we’ll see some real damage done in the Middle East.

Iran’s supreme leader retreats underground, warned of likelihood of US airstrikes

FROM THE NY POST: The 86-year-old supreme leader has moved to a fortified shelter in Tehran connected to a series of elaborate underground tunnels after senior military officials warned of the increasing likelihood of an imminent US attack, Iran International reported, according to the Jerusalem Post.

Khamenei has left his youngest son Masoud Khamenei, 53, in charge of running the day-to-day management of the Islamic Republic, the Jerusalem Post reported. Masoud Khamenei’s emergency duties include being the primary communication channel with the regime’s executive branch, according to the report.

Iran has deemed the likelihood of US airstrikes to be high after President Trump announced Friday that warships were headed to the Middle East as a warning to the ayatollah, following a continuing war of words between the two leaders in recent days.

Trump boasted Friday that the US Navy was sending a massive “armada.”

The Abraham Lincoln Carrier Strike Group, which includes three destroyers, is currently motoring from the Indian Ocean to the Persian Gulf region of Iran, Stars and Stripes reported. Publicly, Tehran has not backed down from heightened tensions with the US as Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian threatened to treat any attack against the supreme leader by the US or Israel as “an all-out war against us.”

It’s not the first time the supreme leader has holed up underground. Khamenei also went silent after retreating to a bunker last June, during the 12-Day War with Israel. He reportedly had even drafted a list of potential successors in the event he was killed in the short-lived conflict.

His latest X post this year threatened to go after both internal and international “criminals” who he claimed were responsible for the widespread protests that have gripped the nation since Dec. 28. Those protests — against a disastrous economy that came on the back of the worst drought the country has seen in decades — have seen regime forces gun down at least 3,000 civilians, with some groups claiming the death toll as high as 20,000.

GRAPHIC WARNING: The 2026 Super Bowl LX Will Be A Master Class In Grooming And Indoctrinating Your Children Into The LGBTQ Movement, Turn It Off

Published

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

Super Bowl LX 2026 is being called the ‘gayest’ ever played, and their main target will be the indoctrination of the millions of child who will be watching, your children

By the time Super Bowl LX kicks off on February 8, 2026, Americans will not merely be watching a football game — they will once again be subjected to a carefully curated cultural sermon. The NFL, NBC, Peacock, and their corporate partners are no longer subtle about the message: America must celebrate what God condemns. Let the Gay Games begin!

“Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!” Isaiah 5:20 (KJB)

The increasing and intentional inclusion of LGBTQ+ performers, themes, and advertising narratives is not accidental, and it is not about “representation.” It is about redefinition — redefining morality, redefining identity, redefining truth itself. The Super Bowl has become one of the most powerful propaganda tools in the modern era, reaching over 100 million viewers in a single night, many of them families and children. This is not entertainment. This is indoctrination. The Bible warned us plainly that this day would come.

NFL Super Bowl LX 20206 Halftime Performers:

Bad Bunny – openly LGBTQIA+ queer affirming performer. Bad Bunny is planning to make his Super Bowl half-time show as queer as possible including wearing a dress, sources claim
Brandi Carlile – lesbian country singer. A proud lesbian artist and outspoken advocate for LGBTQ+ rights, Carlile has consistently used her platform to champion equality and inclusion.
Billie Joe Armstrong – bisexual singer for Green Day. Armstrong says that the 1994 song, “Coming Clean”, is about contemplating his sexuality as a teenager in San Francisco.

For decades, the NFL wrapped itself in its phony patriotism — military flyovers, flags, anthems, and slogans about “unity.” But now the mask has come off. The league has openly aligned itself with a worldview that celebrates sexual confusion, rejects God’s created order, and openly defies Scripture. Take a good look at the colors in the Super Bowl LX 2026 logo at the top of this article, and you will clearly see the same colors of the LGBTQIA flag woven throughout.

No Christian has any business watching this garbage, and no American patriot does, either. Boycott Super Bowl 2026, turn it off. #boycottbadbunny #boycottnfl @nflcommish pic.twitter.com/dYR4FB1Gjh

Make no mistake: when advertisers pay millions of dollars to push these messages during the most-watched broadcast of the year, they are not “taking a risk.” They are following the spirit of the age. And what spirit is that? Glad you asked.

“Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;” 1 Timothy 4:1 (KJB)

Mark it down. It is the duty of every Christian to discern the spirit of the age that they find themselves in, and to stand against it. Christians are meant to be salt – a cleanser and irritant – and light, to a lost and dying world. Don’t just ‘not watch’ the demonic Halftime Show, turn the entire thing off and go open your King James Bible and spend the same amount of time that you would have wasted watching football in the study of God’s preserved word. Your spirit will thank you for it.

This is not about individual performers, and it is not about personal feelings. Scripture commands us to love people — but it never commands us to affirm sin. What we are witnessing is the normalization of rebellion against God, packaged in bright lights, celebrity worship, and billion-dollar branding.

The NFL does not want neutrality.
The networks do not want tolerance.
The advertisers do not want coexistence.

They want celebration. And celebration is endorsement.

Super Bowl Sunday has quietly become one of America’s most effective altars — not to God, but to self, identity, and defiance. That is why believers should not be surprised, shocked, or confused. We were warned. This is exactly what an end-times culture looks like when a nation abandons biblical truth.

“And if it seem evil unto you to serve the LORD, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD.” Joshua 24:15 (KJB)

The question for Bible believers is not whether the Super Bowl has changed — it has. The real question is whether Christians will continue to sit silently, excuse it as “just entertainment,” and allow their children to be discipled by corporations with agenda instead of Scripture.

The world is choosing its side openly now. So must we. I turned the NFL off back in 2017, come join me.

After Backing Down On His Pledge To Defend Iranian Protestors, President ‘TACO’ Trump Sends The USS Abraham Lincoln And Three Destroyers To Middle East

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

President TACO has sent the USS Abraham Lincoln to the Middle East, will he finally keep his promise to the Iranian people and help them topple regime?

A senior Iranian official stated that Iran will treat any attack “as an all-out war against us,” on Friday, ahead of the arrival of a United States military aircraft carrier strike group and other assets in the Middle East region, which is expected in the coming days. “This military buildup – we hope it is not intended for real confrontation – but our military is ready for the worst-case scenario. This is why everything is on high alert in Iran,” said the senior Iranian official, speaking on condition of anonymity.

“Thus saith the LORD of hosts; Behold, I will break the bow of Elam, the chief of their might.” Jeremiah 49:35 (KJB)

Donald Trump promised the hundreds of thousands of Iranian protestors that he would launch airstrikes on the regime if mass killings began, and that is one of the main reasons why the Iranian had the courage to stand up for their freedom. Then the regime turned off the internet, the mass killings began, but the TACO president did not launch the strikes he promised. Proof of the mass deaths are easily found on social media, and someone as internet savvy as Trump could easily find that proof. So now he has ordered the USS Abraham Lincoln to the region, and only time will tell if he will actually keep his promise to the Iranian people.

The USS Abraham Lincoln is arriving in the Middle East

FROM WSLS NEWS 10: The Pentagon has been sending U.S. military assets into the Middle East this week, including an aircraft carrier group and its thousands of troops, as President Donald Trump indicates he is maintaining the possibility of strikes on Iran amid its crackdown on protests.

“We have a massive fleet heading in that direction, and maybe we won’t have to use it,” Trump told reporters Thursday, saying they were going “just in case.”

Trump has threatened military action if Iran carried out mass executions of prisoners or killed peaceful demonstrators, but he recently backed away, claiming Iran halted the hangings of 800 detained protesters. He has not elaborated on the source of the claim, which Iran’s top prosecutor called “completely false.”

However, Trump appears to be keeping his options open, saying Thursday aboard Air Force One that his threatened military action would make last year’s U.S. strikes on Iranian nuclear sites “look like peanuts” if the government proceeded with planned executions of some protesters.

The aircraft carrier USS Abraham Lincoln and three accompanying destroyers left the South China Sea and began heading west earlier this week, a Navy official said. The official, who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss military movements, said Friday that the Lincoln strike group was in the Indian Ocean.

When they arrive in the region, those warships would join three littoral combat ships, which were in port in Bahrain on Friday, as well as two other U.S. Navy destroyers, which were at sea in the Persian Gulf.

The arrival of the carrier strike group would bring roughly 5,700 additional service members. The U.S. has several bases in the Middle East, including Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar, which hosts thousands of American troops and is the forward headquarters for U.S. Central Command. READ MORE
