A SUNDAY NEWS SUMMARY STARTS TO POST MIDNIGHT EASTERN US TIME.
My wife coloring pictures on her phone last evening when this song came up on the radio. In the 1990's the music of the 1960's prominent.
My son was born on March 30th his birthday last Monday when he was born I went to Walmart and got a cassette (remember those) of hit songs like this one by Petula Clark...
"COLOR MY WORLD"-PETULA CLARK
"OB-LA-DI, OB-LA-DA"-THE BEATLES
"BE YE GLAD"-GLAD
"And though your body lay weary from wasting
And your eyes show the sorrow they've had
Oh the love that your heart is now tasting
Has opened the gates be ye glad
Oh Be ye glad, oh be ye glad!
Every debt that you ever had
Has been paid up in full by the grace of the Lord
Be ye glad, be ye glad, be ye glad!"
FROM THE LAST SONG 'BE YE GLAD'
This Easter Weekend is definitely about our Lord Jesus Christ who saved us and delivered us.
When I was young in the 1970's the preachers talked a heck of a lot of about Jesus returning again, about Armageddon and about a personality known as the "Antichrist".
In those days of my life hearing political preachers and commentators on the radio sometimes the speculation went pretty wild they felt the need to identify personalities of the time that seemed to dominate the news as the "Antichrist".
Names that came up included Dr. Henry Kissinger and Jimmy Carter later on the 1970's.
It reminds me of this movie now available on You Tube it was out when Israel was brutally attacked by Qatar funded Hamas on October 7th, 2023.
I repeat when Israel was attacked by Qatar funded Hamas on October 7th, 2023.
More on that some other time.
The movie I speak of "Golda" a Hollywood feminist version of events surrounding the Yom Kippur War when Israeli Prime Minister Golda Meir was indeed speaking to Dr. Henry Kissinger reputed to be "The Antichrist" in his time.
That first "Kissinger Scene" involved telephone operators making connections between world leaders.
I was down in the switchboard room in the basement of the US State Department back around 1970 getting a full tour my mother visiting people she worked with when she was a switchboard operator at the State Department decades earlier...
Later on folks would go so far as to say Rush Limbaugh was the Antichrist so I have been told by someone I trust.
Kissinger, Carter and El Rushbo have passed on but we certainly have some dominating personalities today that could qualify for definition as:
"The Antichrist"
I'll stop short of naming names, I think you get the point.
"You listen to Billy Graham all the time?"
My wife noticed I had the radio set to the "Billy Graham Channel" when she used the car and asked me that question one day recently.
I answered yes to that I guess to be more accurate I listen to Billy Graham 95 percent of the time classic messages like this...
"Now the word believe is the catch, that's the trick. The word believe means to commit. It's more than just head belief. The Bible says the Devil believes and trembles when he thinks about the future.
The Devil believes but he believes with his head. He doesn't believe he hasn't committed himself to Christ so he's lost..."
DR. BILLY GRAHAM AT 1:45 INTO THE AUDIO LINKED BELOW...
(NEWS, COMMENT, ANALYSIS WITH MAINSTREAM MEDIA SOURCES)
US President Donald Trump slamming President Emmanuel Macron under pressure over the Iran War.
One aspect of the Iran War is a refugee crisis in Lebanon more than one million people driven from their homes most in southern Lebanon near the Israeli border.
Mr. Macron concerned about the humanitarian situation as well as the killing of UN peacekeeping soldiers in the Israeli military offensive now underway in Lebanon.
As noted last week French diplomat Fabrice Aidan under investigation over his linked to Jeffrey Epstein provided Epstein with UN documents that were confidential underscoring Israel's adversarial relationship with the UN.
President Macron extending Europe's links to Far Eastern nations touted as the new members of an expanded NATO to counter China militarily.
In Japan Macron signed a deal with Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi on critical minerals and nuclear power.
In South Korea Macron and President Lee Jae Myung agreeing to closer defense cooperation including maintaining passage through the Strait of Hormuz following the Iran War.
Defense ministers of South Korea and France also discussed closer cooperation between the two nations on defense.
While US President Donald Trump may be threatening to leave NATO what will really happen may not bear resemblance to his public statements now dictated by a need to distract from the Iran War which may be escalating to include more US military casualties.
Also, one senses the drama over NATO distracts from escalating NATO activity against Russia with seizures of 'shadow fleet" oil tankers by European countries on the high seas.
The deals and cooperation with Japan and South Korea concluded by Mr. Macron done with China in mind and the need to oppose China economically on the road to potential military confrontation in alignment with the United States.

She alleged an encounter with President Trump that included being forced into a sex act. The White House denying the accusation.

TRUMP SAYS OTHER COUNTRIES ARE RESPONSIBLE TO SOLVE CLOSURE OF THE STRAIT OF HORMUZ DUE TO THE IRAN WAR 12:56
Those are some telling excerpts from US President Donald Trump's Iran War speech tonight.
The speech did not end the war but it did pass blame and responsibility for problems created by the war onto Iran and other nations of the world.
Mr. Trump mentioned the Special Forces operation in Venezuela on January 3rd that removed President Nicolas Maduro from office taking him to the United States for trial.
He praised that operation for its swiftness then invoked the notion that the Iran War will also end 'very fast'.
That suggests something along the lines of the Venezuelan operation but perhaps to be more accurate the Navy SEAL operation that killed Saudi national Osama bin Laden in Pakistan in May of 2011.
Mr. Trump clearly labeled Iran as the leading 'state sponsor of terrorism' in his speech providing justification for such an action.
And behind President Trump of course Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu telling his military leadership months ago following the first Iran War last June that "defeat of the Iranian axis is within our means'.
He speaks of 'determination in every moment' so one cannot doubt that this determination is also present in President Trump who among other things has repeatedly demanded a pardon for Netanyahu over the corruption charges he is presently on trial for.
Another criminal probe underway in Israel as the war launched was one involving Qatari money going to aides of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
A key witness finding refuge and protection from Serbia...(Haaretz Israel)...Link
Qatar cited as a key Middle East ally of the US in Mr. Trump's speech.
So yes, one should not be surprised when deadly attacks are launched to kill Iran's leaders up to and including Venezuela style Special Forces ops.
What other actions might be required one does not know for sure to 'defeat the Iranian axis' but one should not rule out the possible use of nuclear weapons by Israel and or the United States.
On the edge of the Iran War in a brutal way is Lebanon where Israel's military operations have displaced more than one million people in its quest to destroy Hezbollah the Shia Muslim movement aligned with Iran.
More war of some sort seems on the way in the Middle East likely lasting longer that the 2–3-week notion Mr. Trump may have been trying to communicate in his speech.
Israel, Bahrain, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Qatar and the United Arab Emirates mentioned as US allies in the region but not Lebanon, not Jordan, not Iraq.
Their territories in full or part coming under Israeli control would be in line with the vision of Israel presented in the Bible in Genesis Chapter 15.

Mr. Trump does not end the war with this speech but opens the door to more decisive actions that involve taking out Iran's leaders perhaps by assassination involving US Special Forces on the ground in Iran.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's vision is total defeat of Iran allowing the rest of the Middle East to be dominated by Israel militarily and economically.
Mr. Trump is closely aligned with Mr. Netanyahu his repeated calls for Israeli President Issac Herzog to pardon Netanyahu currently on trial for corruption illustrates that.
