A BIT OF TIMELY REVIEW

In the commentary on my next-to-last entry here, one reader reminded us of something I posted in this space a couple of years ago.

Click the link to the essay by my friend Larry Correia and please read in depth. It’s as timely today as it was then.

Given recent political events and threats to gun owners’ civil rights, perhaps even more relevant than ever.

47 COMMENTS

  1. Well worth reposting. Larry Correia’s analysis is spot on. Each day the world of Kurt Schlichter’s novels comes closer to being future history.

    • One might comment hypothetically that if a certain Speaker of the House were in President Trump’s shoes today, he/she/it would certainly be him/her/its self and at least declare Marshal Law, arrest the current Speaker (ironically him/her/its self) for exploiting a public citizens’ demonstration by abetting riot and homicide through manifest enabling of known terrorists, arrest any fraudulent-President-elect on charges of any treason, arrest any fraudulent-VP-elect on charges of any publicly threatening the President’s life, order the military to seize every voting machine in any “swing” states, and then really get down to business. The Donald will get successful support for doing all of the above, if he does it.

      • Just a supportive suggestion to the SCOTUS: if one wants the SCOTUS to best continue to maintain full Constitutional judicial credibility, one might responsibly ordain an imminent Court adjudication as to who was officially responsible for any possible negligence regarding Congressional security on the past January 6, and why responsibility for the lethal riot is apparently being displaced toward a legitimately peace-advocating, standing POTUS.

  2. Many proponents of gun control claim that we should do it to save lives. However, quoting the article, “Some of those prohibitionists have even polluted the Twitterverse with blood lust, suggesting smugly that after a hundred thousand or so gun owners resisted and were shot down by police, everyone else would want to turn their weapons over willingly.”

    I think that proponents of gun control should be asked, “If you are willing to kill masses of people to impose and enforce this — and take casualties while you do it — then clearly you have some motivation other than `reducing violence’. So what is your REAL motivation???”

    • We thought the Iraqis and Afghans would do that too and look what happened. Twenty years at war and counting. They were not burdened with rules of engagement or bureaucratic interference and had tribal networks that gave them home field advantage. We had the tech but they had the determination.

  3. Looks like we are in a very lengthy, drawn-out battle to maintain a free society based on the Constitution. We have big enemies in the form of socialist bribery funding, highly placed incendiary race baiters, despotic big tech, talking heads on the take, genuine foreign interference with elections, wannabe thought and language police, and self-enriching politicians, especially those under blackmail in various forms. And that may only be the tip of the iceberg. Extra effort and peaceful teamwork will help us overcome such adversity. A wannabe-gun-grabber politician used by a spy from the ruthless CCP and then openly defended by Congress is an extra-imposing kind of obstacle, though, if a true story.

  4. Great article. Thanks for re-running it. Thoughts:

    Democratic officials have begun emptying the prisons and jails of convicted violent offenders. To make room?

    The insurgents in Vietnam and Afghanistan had safe havens across the border to train, rearm and refit.

    Democratic politicians have begun to speak in public about the need to deprogram and re-educate the 74 million Americans who were stupid enough to vote for Trump.

    How many of the new gun owners in 2020-21, of a wide variety of political leanings, will be willing to surrender their legally purchased private property?

    Now is the time to forge even stronger bonds to family and like-minded friends.

  5. The Correia article doesn’t take into account the “rules of engagement” used in the so-called “war on terror” as well as those used in Afghanistan and Iraq, presuming there is any difference. The “war on terror” is not an actual “war” to eliminate terror, it is an unending diversion from the slow denigration of freedom and ‘rights’ throughout the western world.
    From the “department of homeland security” to the wearing of masks, social-distancing and extensive “lockdowns” across this country and the world “human rights” are taking a beating. The war on terror is to divert attention by creating the appearance of danger at home to increase surveillance, control and, ultimately, a polce-state.
    Of course, if we simply wiped out entire villages where suspected insurgents were hiding, opened fire indiscriminately at the first hint of resistance, slaughtered those who dared fight us and everyone they happened to know the “war” would have been won in short order.
    The whole point is to drag it out forever if possible. (See ‘Brave New World’ and ‘1984’.)
    Wars are useful as diversions for the public, excuses for governmental excess and ways to eliminate potentially dangerous young citizens.
    Today the left has achieved a level of power unheard of before with an agenda that is utterly in opposition to the Constitution… and they don’t care.
    If (and when?) they determine that the “rules-of-engagement” need to be more draconian because there are so many gun owners and so many guns I, for one, do not doubt for a minute that they will use massive force indiscriminately against miniscule targets with the rules-of-engagement being, “kill ’em all and let pachymama sort ’em out.”
    Will the media get up in arms over each individual instance? They won’t even report it, or will simply describe the razing by auto-cannon of a farmhouse and deaths of three generations of Americans as “mostly peaceful.”

  6. The state will always defeat the inferior civilian force? Tell that to the Viet Cong who defeated the French then the Americans. Tell that to the Mujahideen who defeated the Soviets and holding their own against the Americans and British. Tell that to the American colonists who defeated the Crown.

  7. Part two: Here in the USA we have the example of the Branch-Davidians, slaughtered by the Klinton-Reno cabal with no perceptible “rules of engagement” followed. Or more currently Red China and its lack of tender loving care in dealing with large recalcitrant segments of its population.

  8. This does beg the question “Would a sworn law enforcement officer or soldier actually force American citizens, whose only crime was possessing a weapon, to surrender their only means of self defense? Being retired military myself, I would refuse to obey an unlawful order. I’m sure many others would follow suit. The last time someone in power sent soldiers to disarm Americans, we shot them.

  9. This has to be deja vu for Larry. That piece fits today’s political climate just about perfectly. Brings to mind why Japan chose not to invade the mainland

  10. Regarding that Meme with the helicopter gunship, as I recall, the USSR had a whole slew of helicopter gunships in Afghanistan. And tanks. And well trained soldiers. How’d that work out for them? And before that, we the United States of America had our own little to-do in a little back-ass country called Vietnam. I’ll be keeping my AR-15, no matter what. And my Kalashnikovs, too.

    • IIRC, someone over in Afghanistan figured out that all the armor on the Hind was to protect from ground fire. OTOH, if you were above the gunship, the engines and control hydraulics were pretty much unprotected.

      I expect that there may be at least one Dem Senator who would be, at best, very reluctant to support expanding the reach of the NFA. Don’t recall where the one in mind is in this term, but I don’t see that particular issue being a winner in that state. I hope.

  11. The tail rotor of a helicopter is the most vulnerable spot and any damage will bring it down or cause enough loss of control to force the pilot to break off an attack. Some Russian helicopters like the Alligator have counter-rotating main rotors, eliminating the need for a tail rotor and those are nearly invulnerable to damage by small arms including the .50 BMG unless you have Raufoss rounds and can hit the pilot.

    • Wondering about CCP forces training or massing in Canada, Mexico, or the U.S., come to think of it. Looking for updated information from anybody, especially with recent eyes-on. The Alligator sure is a tough bird. Its hydraulics protection is probably special, too.
      Regarding photos of a huge column of Hondurans presently headed this way: I had an Army Engineer officer friend who served in Honduras, likely in the 90’s. He told me that Honduras was where he really saw that if terrorists wanted to get you, they would not fail. By that kind of news, letting in random Hondurans is not just a Honduran humanitarian issue.

      • Even with Raufoss .50 BMG ammunition, the pilot would have to be shot through the Lexan type canopy. The cockpit of the AH-64 Apache is armored to take hits from a 23mm cannon as carried by the Soviet ZSU-23 anti-aircraft vehicles. Firing at an Apache with a semi-auto AK-47 or AR-15 type rifle is like trying to stop an elephant with a BB gun. Look what happened to that stupid kid in the movie Red Dawn firing his AK-47 at the Russian Hind helicopter. The only man portable and reliable defense against a modern attack helicopter is a Stinger missile or equivalent, or an anti-tank missile/rocket. The best option though, is to transform into The Hulk.

  12. This is soooo stupid that it makes me wonder if it is not a set up. Perhaps designed to give the Anti-American Media a story to support their “narrative” that wacko, gun-totin’ Trump supporters are a threat to the Country? Perhaps designed to support the impending push to go after gun-owners and disarm them?

    What do you think? False Flag anyone?

    BTW. a couple of Glocks and less than 1,000 rounds of ammo was described as a “Huge Weapons Cache” in the teaser for this story. 🙂

    • Looks like the truth is starting to come out. It appears to be a simple mistake behind the whole thing.

      However, our Anti-American Media just could not resist adding in a bunch of false lies in order to twist the incident into fitting their “wacko, gun-totin’, threat” narrative. See this story with updated information:

      https://www.washingtonpost.com/local/beeler-arrest-inauguration-checkpoint/2021/01/16/8597db24-5834-11eb-a817-e5e7f8a406d6_story.html#click=https://t.co/R5qi7XYE22

      Tell me, why does ANYONE give the Anti-American Media any credit at all? How many millions of times do these left-wing propagandists have to lie to you before you finally understand that the truth is not in these people?

      It has reached the point where my basic position is as follows:

      1) I now assume that every word written or reported by the Anti-American Media is a bald-face lie.

      2) I now assume that the true situation is most likely to be the 180 degree opposite of whatever the Anti-American Media is reporting.

      Based upon the track record of the Media in this country, over the last decade, I feel that the above approach is wise, reasonable and prudent. I recommend that all Americans take the above assumptions to heart and follow this approach with respect to understanding Media reporting as it now exists in 21st Century America.

  13. I do believe that in the end the success or failure of the progressive anti-freedom agenda will come down to the willingness of the “on-the-street” LEO, local, state or federal, to disobey illegal/unConstitutional orders.
    As always it comes down to the honor of the individual and his or her steadfast holding to their oath of office that will determine whether or not our nation survives.

  14. The Works of J.R.R. Tolkien have been on my mind much recently. Especially his trilogy “The Lord of the Rings”. I first read the LOTR during one Christmas break when I was in college. I had received the trilogy as a Christmas present and it was probably the best gift that I ever received. I started reading the first book and, literally, could not put it down. I spent the next week reading from morning until night. Only taking necessary breaks to eat, sleep and take care of other necessary business. 🙂 I did not stop until I had finished the entire trilogy.

    At the time, I thought that it was a brilliant fantasy work. It was so detailed with its description of the supreme evil represented by Mordor. It was filled with flawed heroes who gave their final strength to fight evil. The evil was truly dark and full of corruption and deceit. An evil that wanted to control and dominate everyone and crush every spark of liberty in Middle Earth. It had treasonous characters who saw the battle against Mordor as hopeless and switched sides in consequence as well as truly evil characters.

    What really appealed, however, was its theme that it was often not the wise or great that shaped the future. Rather, it was the ordinary people who, ultimately, defeated evil and brought Mordor down. It was not Gandalf or Aragorn that conquered evil, although they certainly helped. Rather, it was the little folk. The simple Hobbits from the Shire, that broke the back of Mordor. It was not easy but they “got the job done”. As the following quote from the work shows:

    “The road must be trod, but it will be very hard. And neither strength nor wisdom will carry us far upon it. This quest may be attempted by the weak with as much hope as the strong. Yet it is oft the course of deeds that move the wheels of the world: Small hands do them because they must, while the eyes of the great are elsewhere.”

    At the time I read this trilogy, I thought that it was just a great fantasy. However, as I reflect today, I find that Tolkien’s “fantasy” has become all too “real”. Mordor has been built and exists today. It is called Washington, D.C. but it is actually “Mordor” in everything but name.

    In the trilogy, a dark cloud of poisonous fumes was released from Mordor. This cloud blocked the sun and smothered out all life. It sickened the land slowly turning it into a wasteland. It depressed the hearts of the “Free Folk” and filled them with fear.

    Such a dark cloud lies across America today. It is formed by fearmongering around the Covid-19 virus. It is also formed by a million small lies and deceits that have been woven, by the media propagandists, into a thick tapestry. A tapestry that forms the “Big Lie” of the American Left. It is a tapestry so dense and rich that even Sauron himself would be green with envy over its creation.

    In the trilogy, there is the “Great Eye” of Mordor. This eye is constantly watching. Maintaining surveillance upon the free peoples of Middle Earth. It was a tool of Mordor to constantly track any opposition to its will.

    This “Great Eye” also exists in our 2020 Mordor. It consists of the surveillance tools of the NSA and FBI (among others). Constantly watching the American People under the pretext of protecting us from foreign enemies. The “Great Eye” of the modern surveillance State makes a mockery of our 4th Amendment protections.

    We also have our traitors who see Mordor as “unbeatable” and who argue that we should join Mordor rather than fight it. These RINO traitors have names like Romney rather than Saruman. We also have our Nazgûl. Their undead flesh is sustained by plastic surgery and Botox, rather than by the power of some magic ring, but they are Nazgûl all the same.

    We have our Orcs. They call themselves Antifa and BLM but they follow the Orc pattern by raiding, looting and burning. So, if it loots like an Orc and burns like an Orc and destroys like an Orc, then it is an Orc (in my book) regardless of the name.

    We have our Gandalf. He goes by the name of Donald Trump, but he fulfills the same role. He stands against Mordor and tries to inspire the hearts of all free folk to fight against the darkness.

    However, in LOTR, it was not Gandalf that achieved victory. Rather, it was the regular folks. The folks that just wanted to live free, work hard, support their families, and enjoy their life. The folks that wanted to live free themselves without any thought of trying to boss around or dominate others. In the LOTR, these regular folks called themselves Hobbits although the other races sometimes called them “Halflings”. Our modern-day Mordor hates the free folk of America and calls them the “Deplorables”. They live in what Mordor calls “Fly-Over Country” rather than in a place named the Shire.

    It is all different names, but it is the same story.

    I think that there are lessons that we can draw from Tolkien’s LOTR. First, evil must be confronted or else it will consume everything and everyone. Second, it is no good looking for the wise and strong to come riding to our rescue. As in the case of the Hobbits, we are going to have to stand forth, confront the evil of Mordor, and then defeat it ourselves.

    Yes, indeed. When I was a young man reading Tolkien’s trilogy for the first time, I never imagined, for one instant, that I would be living it when I became an old man. Nevertheless, here I am, living it. Mordor has arisen before my eyes.

    Although the evil of 2020 Mordor exceeds anything I ever expected to face, I still have faith. We should all remember the words of Samwise Gamgee:

    “It’s like in the great stories, Mr. Frodo. The ones that really mattered. Full of darkness and danger they were. And sometimes you didn’t want to know the end… because how could the end be happy? How could the world go back to the way it was when so much bad had happened? But in the end, it’s only a passing thing… this shadow. Even darkness must pass.”

    • TN_MAN:

      Don’t forget that in Star Wars, the Emperor was previously a senator before becoming the supreme leader of the Dark Side. That could have been Al Gore, Hillary Clinton, and certainly Joe Biden and Kamala Harris. The hulking Janet Reno would have made an excellent Darth Vader and definitely needed that masked helmet to conceal her repulsive mug. May the Force be with us!

  15. Irish and Israelis defeated the Brits. Partisans in Yugoslavia defeated the Germans and then had a faceoff with the Soviets. Soviets backed down. Castro defeated Batista. The Spanish didn’t exactly defeat Napoleon but they bled him. Of course, there are lots of counter examples too, like the Vendee and Ukrainian nationalists and the Kurds going back at least 2500 years.

  16. Soon Biden will be President, Harris will be Vice President, and the Left will have even more power than they have now. Get as ready as you can for their “utopia.”

    • Just wait a few more months and Aunt Kamala will be the new Dear Leader after Crooked Joe resigns as per their pre-arranged agreement to return to his former position of town fool of Wilmington, Delaware. Cortez will probably be picked to become the next Vice Dear Leader and the fun will really begin then. Welcome to the Communist States of America!

      • Tom606,

        I think the situation you describe is totally plausible. All-Out-Crazy is only 31-years-old, but the Left never lets rules stand in the way of building a “workers’ paradise” for us.

      • Roger, it’s also possible that the Demoncrat controlled Congress may pass legislation which would allow a president Aunt Kamala to rule over us more than two terms. How fabulously divine!

  17. Now if people invoke their 2A-protected rights, how much pearl clutching from good conservatives will ensue? Conservatives will scold, “[Fill-in-the-blank] isn’t legal! This is not who we are!”

    Keeping ARs soon might be illegal. Then what? Will the conservatives insist that we can still exercise rights as long as we do so legally.

    Simply: anyone who ever resists enemies, domestic, will be branded terrorists by other conservatives–not just open leftists. We’ve seen it already in 2021 even in a nearly 100% unarmed confrontation with federal authority.

    • I think that you mean “Establishment Conservatives” or, perhaps, “RINO’s” in your comment above. In my book, a “True Conservative” is one who supports the full Constitution of the United States of America. The Constitution as it is written not the Constitution as it is twisted by some leftist “Living Document” bastardization.

      Maybe you are not using the word “Good” from my point-of-view. By “Good”, I would say “True to the Constitution”. You seem to be using the word “Good” from the Leftist’s point-of-view whereby they define a “Good Conservative” as a “Good Quisling”. Some token Conservative that will “play ball” with the Leftist Program and meekly do as he or she is told. An “Uncle Tom” of Conservatives, so to speak.

      In my view, compliant sheep are not “Good Conservatives”. As you are using the term, you are giving all Conservatives a bad name.

      While worthless quislings exist in the Republican Party in abundance, you should not paint all Conservatives with a broad brush based upon the despicable behavior of a minority.

      That is what the “Gun Grabbers” do. They paint all gun-owners as evil based upon the criminal actions of a tiny handful. That mode of thinking is flat-out wrong!

  18. I think we are on a similar wavelength. My use of “good” did not use scare quotes but might have been clearer with them. “Good” in that case meaning RINOS and other bow-tie-Americans. That said it’s more than RINOS who have resorted to pearl clutching this time around too though. Been surprised by a few would-be solid traditionalists, libertarians, and paleos going full into “not who we are” mode.

    I remain reassured by the level of 2A sanctuary support from local sheriffs and chiefs. That was a surprise most pleasant these past two years.

    • It is true that even some (more or less) non-quisling Conservatives still don’t understand the modern American Left. They are still stuck in the past. A past where the rules were followed (for the most part) and it was possible to establish some common ground with the liberals in the Democrat Party.

      In fact, one thing that really stands out to me is the number of people, on both sides, who are in a State of Denial about our current political situation. I do not know if it is “wishful thinking” or being “stuck in the past” but it is certainly the case for a lot of people.

      I have a friend who falls in this category. He is a Christian and is fiscally conservative although he leans to the left on many social policies. If you were to ask him, he would say that he is a “Conservative Democrat” in the pattern of the old “Boil Weevils” or the current “Blue Dog Democrats”. He is in a total State of Denial about the radical nature of the modern Democrat Party. He still believes that it is the Party of JFK with a Conservative Southern block. He still believes that it is the Party of “Unions”. The Party that supports the “Little Man” against the big corporate interests. In his book, it is the Republican Party that panders to all the rich corporate interests.

      His views are decades out-of-date. As President Trump has shown, the vast majority of the Republican base is now formed by the American Middle Class. The Democrats, and their Establishment Republican Quislings, now are the ones that pander to Global Big Business and Big Tech.

      I tried to tell my friend this truth. I tried to explain that the World has Changed since the 1960’s. He was enraged at my assertion and hotly denied the truth of my statement. It was like talking to a wall. His political views were formed in the 1960’s, as a young man, and he simply does not have a mind flexible enough to encompass the changed conditions. When I pointed out that the Democrat Party has moved to the radical Left, he denied it and said that it still has a conservative wing.

      In fact, there are less than 20 Democrats that form the “Blue Dog Coalition” in the U.S. House (out of over 200 Democrat Representatives) and they have no power. In truth, the radical leftists are in charge. My friend lives in a State of Denial about this truth. He still marches into the voting booth and votes the “straight Democrat Ticket”. He is voting for a radical Marxist ideology that stands against his Christian principles and conservative fiscal beliefs. He denies the truth of this, shuts his eyes and votes for the devil anyway. He votes not out of ignorance but, rather, out of willful blindness. It is pitiful to view such mental inflexibility.

      Leaving aside the Republican Quislings, of which there are many, there are still many actual Conservatives who also continue to live in the 1960’s. They also are in denial about the radical nature of the modern Democrat Party. They still cherish misguided beliefs that they can “reach across and work with” the Democrats. This is also pitiful.

      In the movie “Darkest Hour”, Winston Churchill says “You can not reason with a tiger when your head is in its mouth.” Whether Churchill actually said this or not, I do not know. Nevertheless, it is a good quote and it ABSOLUTELY APPLIES to the Democratic Party in its current totalitarian mindset.

      There are huge numbers of Americans who need to “wake up from their State of Denial”, shift their minds from 1960 to 2020, and “wrap their heads” around the dangerous, radical nature of the modern Democrat Party. These people are doing no one any good by staying asleep and living in a past dream world. It is time to face the terrible reality of the dire situation in which we find ourselves.

      • Your friend is obviously one of the stupid liberals and not an evil one. I know several people who are the same way, nice folks who are good at their jobs and kind to their kids and pets, but sorely lacking in common sense. These people are not my friends, but acquaintances as I don’t want friends who are stupid or evil, and whose actions harm us and our country.

  19. 1000 grassfires of liberty. Come and take it. My posture remains defensive and hopeful. The change in those contingencies teeters on the edge of a wobbly dime, and they are enacted based on the legitimacy of lawful actions. I never took the oath, but you can be sure I’ll comport myself accordingly should the need arise. Not only must the law be served, but it also must appear to have been served. Just cause they say so? No. They’ve spent all their political capital AFAIC. When they push this, as we all know they will, history writes the refresher course. Gun ships or no gun ships. This is a Republic sir…if you can keep it.

  20. I will confess to have gone off Larry Correia recently. FWIW I still enjoy his books and think that in the main he’s a really cool dude. But I got booted off his Facebook page when I repeatedly, but politely, pointed that all of the court case mounted to do with the alleged election fraud had been booted out of court . . .

    The idea of a “Second Civil War” is truly horrifying.

    Sadly from my side of the pond I get the impression that some “Liberals” and I will fiercely emphasis the word SOME, seem to think this would be a “good thing.”

    Equally sadly I also get the impression that some “Conservatives” and again I fiercely emphasise that word SOME, also seem to think this would be a “good thing.”

    But let us hope this all a hypothetical and we can look forward to a peaceful and prosperous 2021.

  21. Fruitbat44,

    I will try to list every possible response which we can make to the Left. Anyone may feel free to add any responses I miss;

    1. Those on the Right can try to educate those on the Left to see the error of their ideas and ways.

    2. We can submit to them.

    3. We can separate from them.

    4. We can exile them.

    5. We can defeat them.

    6. We can continue to have a cold civil war with them, as we have been doing for perhaps one hundred years.

    7. Both Left and Right could be annihilated by China or Iran, or some other enemy.

    It should be noted that the period of Reconstruction after the Civil War was a terrible time of shocking violent attacks by Democrats against Republicans in the South. Maybe the violence went both ways. I just want to point out that the end of a war may not bring on a period of peace. War can become normal, like it is in the Middle East. We think a wildfire in California is news, when really the absence of a wildfire in California is news.

    • How about?

      8. Understand that being to the “Left” or “Right” of your POV does automatically mean the next stop is a Police State?

      And how about . . .

      9. Unite over the things we have in common, accept differences where can and tolerate where we cannot, and accept workable compromises when practicable?

      And as a general principle, keep in mind it’s always worth being “civil.” 🙂

      • Back in 2017 when President Trump took the oath of office, someone should have given him Ann Coulter’s book, How to Talk to a Liberal (if you must) and told him to read and study it. That may have helped him immensely.

  22. Civil wars tend to get really nasty, neighbor against neighbor, family member against family member. I think it’s important to remember that the two major upheavals on US soil, the Revolutionary War and the Civil War both happened because some entity was trying to change the basic way people lived. In the first it was self-government that was being done away with and in the second it was the institution of slavery and the imposition of Federal control over the local state governments. Americans have a long tradition of being able to defend themselves and fend for themselves. The attempt to take that away will be resisted vigorously.

  23. What’s up?

    I found this article very interesting…please read!

    Do you remember the blockbuster hit film The Matrix that was released in 1999? You may not know this, but it has deep spiritual implications concerning the times we are living in and Bible prophecy.

    It tells a story of how these “agents” are trying to turn us into machines. We are closer then ever before for this to become a reality when they cause us to receive an implantable microchip in our body during a time when physical money will be no more.

    You may have seen on NBC news concerning the implantable RFID microchip that some people are getting put in their hand to make purchases, but did you know this microchip matches perfectly with prophecy in the Bible?

    “He (the false prophet who deceives many by his miracles) causes all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hand or on their foreheads, and that no one may buy or sell except one who has the mark or the name of the beast, or the number of his name…

    You also may have heard of the legendary number “666” that people have been speculating for possibly thousands of years on what it actually means. This article shares something I haven’t seen before, and I don’t think there could be any better explanation for what it means to calculate 666. This is no hoax. Very fascinating stuff!

    …Here is wisdom. Let him who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man: His number is 666″ (Revelation 13:16-18 NKJV).

    To see all the details showing why the Bible foretold of all these things, check out this article!

    Article: https://biblewoke.com/rfid-mark-of-the-beast-666-revealed

    GOD is sending out His end time warning:

    “Then a third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, ‘If anyone worships the beast and his image, and receives his mark on his forehead or on his hand, he himself shall also drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out full strength into the cup of His indignation. He shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels and in the presence of the Lamb. And the smoke of their torment ascends forever and ever; and they have no rest day or night, who worship the beast and his image, and whoever receives the mark of his name'” (Revelation 14:9-11).

    In the Islamic religion they have man called the Mahdi who is known as their messiah of whom they are waiting to take the stage. There are many testimonies from people online who believe this man will be Barack Obama who is to be the biblical Antichrist based off dreams they have received. I myself have had strange dreams about him like no other person. So much so that I decided to share this information.

    He came on stage claiming to be a Christian with no affiliation to the Muslim faith…

    “In our lives, Michelle and I have been strengthened by our Christian faith. But there have been times where my faith has been questioned — by people who don’t know me — or they’ve said that I adhere to a different religion, as if that were somehow a bad thing,” – Barack Obama

    …but was later revealed by his own family members that he indeed is a devout Muslim.
