Has Nuclear War Now Become An Inevitable Part Of The Future Destiny Of Mankind?

North Korea's recent nuclear test and Iran's nuclear ambitions are now causing many to wonder if we are now at the point where nuclear war has become inevitable.

The Future Of American Youth: Fascist Uniforms & Paramilitary Training

s the domestic security apparatus continues to expand aggressively in the U.S., it is increasingly turning to America's youth to fill its ranks. It has gotten to the point where we are dressing our teens in "fascist" uniforms, teaching them hand salutes and giving the boy scouts paramilitary training.

Seriously.

First let's talk about a really disturbing article in the New York Times recently entitled: "Scouts Train to Fight Terrorists, and More".

In that article, the New York Times describes how the Boy Scouts are training thousands of young people to confront terrorism, illegal immigration and escalating border violence.

A couple of examples of "exercises" that these "Explorers" have participated in include a simulated raid on a marijuana field and taking out a disgruntled Iraq war veteran.

“Put him on his face and put a knee in his back,” a Border Patrol agent instructed a teen during one exercise that the New York Times observed. “I guarantee that he’ll shut up.”

Most of the time the "Explorers" use compressed-air guns which fire tiny plastic pellets during the training exercises, but other times they shoot real guns on a closed range.

“I like shooting them,” one participant told the New York Times. “I like the sound they make. It gets me excited.”

Are any of you who are reading this starting to get disturbed yet?

What in the world are we turning our kids into?

Just read this harrowing description of a live drill these "Explorers" were put through.....

Their hearts pounding, Explorers moved down alleys where there were hidden paper targets of people pointing guns, and made split-second decisions about when to shoot. In rescuing hostages from a bus taken over by terrorists, a baby-faced young girl screamed, “Separate your feet!” as she moved to handcuff her suspect.

We are training these kids to be enforcers in a futuristic police state.

Is this the kind of America you want to live in?

As if paramilitary training for the boy scouts was not bad enough, just check out this propaganda ad for Americorps.....



Do you find the red and khaki "uniforms" disturbing?

What about the creepy hand salutes?

One of the most insidious things about that ad is how they mixed images of Gandhi and Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. in to make it seem so noble.

But the truth is that the government wants to train and use America's youth to help run the growing "Big Brother" police state that is growing up all around us.

Almost every week new laws are being passed that erode just a little bit more of our freedoms.

Will Americans wake up to the growing tyranny?

If you drop a frog in a pot of boiling water it will jump right out, but if you put a frog in a pot full of warm water and very slowly turn the heat up it will just sit there until it is boiled.

We are like that frog.

Our freedoms are slowly being boiled away as the heat keeps getting turned up, and we are all just sitting there. We need to tell our representatives that we want our freedoms back.

Sometimes it is easy to be discouraged by the direction this country is headed, but the truth is that the darker it is, the more the light can shine.

One of the favorite tactics of all tyrannical regimes (communist, fascist, etc.) is to set up youth brigades. It will be important for all of us to watch what all of these "youth programs" turn into.

Those who forget history are doomed to repeat it.

Let's not forget what "youth brigades" have led to in the past.

Human Trafficking Gone Mad: Over 1 Million Child Prostitutes In India

What if I told you that there are more than one million child prostitutes in India tonight?

What would you say?

Would you say that I was lying?

Would you say that I must be surely exaggerating?

Well, I am not saying it.

India's federal police are saying it.

According to CNN, India's Central Bureau of Investigation released a statement about child trafficking in which they made this sober assessment: "However, studies and surveys sponsored by the ministry of women and child development estimate that there are about three million prostitutes in the country, of which an estimated 40 percent are children."

So India's government is officially estimating that there are approximately 1.2 million child prostitutes in their country.

In 2009.

What is happening to this world?

The truth is that when you talk to most Americans about "slavery", they think of something that happened long ago that has now been abolished. However, the reality is that modern slavery is not only real, but it is rapidly growing, and today more people are enslaved around the world than ever before.

A recent report put out by the United Nations claims that most of the world is in denial about the horror of human trafficking. Instead of going away, human slavery is getting even worse and more widespread in the 21st century.

Exactly how many people are being trafficked?

The U.S. State Department says that there are 800,000 new victims each year, while the International Labor Organization claims that the number is actually about 2.5 million.

The executive director of the U.N. Office on Drugs and Crime, Antonio Maria Costa, had this to say about the U.N. report: "It's sick that we should even need to write a report about slavery in the 21st century."

Actress Mira Sorvino has been appointed as a U.N. goodwill ambassador to help Costa's agency fight human trafficking, and she had this to say about the human trafficking phenomenon: "Until a few years ago, I blissfully believed that slavery was a thing of the past.....Well, obviously I was terribly wrong."

According to the U.N. report, sexual exploitation accounts for 79 percent of human trafficking, while forced labor accounts for 18 percent.

So just who is being trafficked?

The report says that women are 66 percent of the victims, followed by young girls at 13 percent, men at 12 percent, and young boys at 9 percent.

One of the greatest tragedies in all of this is that a huge number of the children being enslaved around the world are being forced into the sex trade for the enjoyment of sick tourists.

According to the American Bar Association, 8.4 million children around the world are currently subjected to "forced labor, forced recruitment for armed conflict, prostitution, pornography, and other illicit activities."

And you know what makes this worse?

Sickos from the United States and Europe are fueling much of this.

The term "sex tourism" has actually become part of the English language over the past decade as thousands upon thousands of Americans and Europeans have flown to foreign countries to have sex with these child slaves.

Our world is becoming full of sickos, perverts and disgusting creeps just as 2 Timothy 3:1-4 warned us would happen in the last days before the return of Christ.....

"But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days. People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God"

The truth is that this world is rapidly falling apart. It is becoming a much darker and much more evil place with each passing day. The signs of this growing darkness are all around us.

If humanity is so "evolved" and so "advanced", then why can't they get rid of this evil?

The reality is that we can't.

Humanity is a slave to sin just like the Bible says. In fact, the Scriptures say that each one of us is a slave to sin.

There is only one way to escape this slavery to sin. If you will receive Jesus Christ into your life you can be set free from sin and will receive eternal life.

But most people will just go on thinking that they are "good" people and that the governments around the world are "good" and that we live in a "good" world.

The truth is that we do not live in a "good" world.

We live in a really, really messed up world, and I'll bet there are about a million child sex slaves in India tonight who would back me up on that point.

U.S. Air Traffic Control Computers Hacked?

What would you say if I told you that U.S. air traffic control computers have been hacked several times in the past few years?

You would probably say that I was crazy.

But I am not saying it.

A government report is.

According to a new government audit, hackers broke into U.S. air traffic control computers on several occasions over the past several years.

Wow, that is frightening?

So is this the future of flight?

Having to worry if your flight plan will be hacked and you will end up flying into a mountain?

Technology does wonderful things with us, but it also brings new problems.

Hopefully hackers will never be able to do anything truly dangerous to our air traffic control systems, but it is hard to feel as confident in our air traffic control security after reading this.

H.R. 1966: Offend Someone Online - Go To Prison

At a time when freedom of speech is already under attack like never before, a shocking new bill in the U.S. House of Representatives would make it a felony to offend someone online.

A felony.

Under this new law you would not just be slapped on the wrist and have to pay a fine.

You would go to big boy prison.

While most free speech activists have been watching the recent "hate crimes" bill, this much more insidious piece of legislation has received almost no notice whatsoever.

Just take a look at what H.R. 1966 actually says.....

Whoever transmits in interstate or foreign commerce any communication, with the intent to coerce, intimidate, harass, or cause substantial emotional distress to a person, using electronic means to support severe, repeated, and hostile behavior, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than two years, or both.

Whoa.

So if you offend someone on Facebook you could go to federal prison for two years?

Yup.

If your blog insults someone and causes them to feel bad you could go to prison for two years?

Yeppers.

If you are in a bad mood one day and you send fire off an angry tweet on Twitter that you maybe should not have you could go to prison for two years over it?

Yes indeed.

Are you starting to get the picture yet?

Talk about an attempt to chill free speech.

So if someone reads something that you have written and it makes them feel bad they can take it to the feds and have them come get you?

That is a very, very frightening thought.

The reality is that the government is increasingly trying to control even the very small details of our lives. They are even increasingly trying to control what we say and what we think.

Freedom of speech is one of the cornerstones of a free society. If we are not free to express ourselves without the fear that someone will be offended, then what freedom will we really have left?

The reality is that if we do not stand up to this, the United States of America will quickly become overrun with politically-correct "commissars" who are eager to throw anyone who disagrees with them in jail for "hate crimes" and "thought crimes".

Things are already out of control in the United Kingdom. Did you know that there are actually undercover officers in some areas of the U.K. that sit in bars and restaurants listening for anyone who might say something offensive or racist?

You may laugh, but the United States is quickly heading down that road.

The full text of H.R. 1966 is below.....
