  1. US President Donald Trump said Saturday he has ordered the Defense Department to prepare for possible military action in Nigeria as he continues to accuse the nation of not doing enough to stem violence against Christians.In the lengthy message, Trump said the US “may very well go into that now disgraced country, ‘guns-a-blazing,’ to completely wipe out the Islamic Terrorists who are committing these horrible atrocities.”https://edition.cnn.com/2025/11/01/politics/trump-pentagon-nigeria-action
  2. It always starts with Jehovah’s judgment executed on false religion, which will be quick and sudden and PS can be overlapping event (justification where nations are saying..we need to do this to have PS is one eventuality and there is more possible scenarios ) The Bible does not say about PS a lot .. there are still some aspects that we do not understand, therefore only patience on our part will eventually lead us to see it with our own eyes .. and then we will say … Ah…. So that’s how the prophecy is being fulfilled.
  3. I work often with Canva, but many times I get frustrated as Canva fails to load certain things and I need to reload the whole program again. Sometimes to finish certain task I need to reload few times within 3-5 hours. Nothing is perfect, but it's good to know about Affinity.
  4. Russian oil major Lukoil says it is selling its international assets in response to sanctions imposed by U.S. President Donald Trump that aim to push Russia to agree to a ceasefire in its war against Ukraine. The company said in a statement that it was already talking with potential purchasers. https://abcnews.go.com/International/wireStory/russian-oil-company-lukoil-sell-international-assets-response-126926241
  5. Israeli planes have launched strikes on Gaza City, with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu accusing militant group Hamas of violating the ceasefire and ordering his military to carry out "powerful attacks" in response. Israel's Defence Minister Israel Katz said in a statement that Hamas would pay a "heavy price for attacking Israeli soldiers in Gaza and for violating the agreement on returning the deceased hostages".https://www.abc.net.au/news/2025-10-29/benjamin-netanyahu-orders-powerful-attacks-in-gaza/105945526 Few days ago Trump announced the "end of the war" Circus of this system continues....
  6. Should we start the petition "we want Turtle back, and we want it now?" Come on Turtle , we miss you. 🥰
  7. “Given President Putin’s refusal to end this senseless war, Treasury is sanctioning Russia’s two largest oil companies that fund the Kremlin’s war machine. Treasury is prepared to take further action if necessary to support President Trump’s effort to end yet another war. We encourage our allies to join us in and adhere to these sanctions.”https://home.treasury.gov/news/press-releases/sb0290
  8. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said that the White House will be announcing “a substantial pickup in Russia sanctions.” “We are going to either announce after the close this afternoon— or first thing tomorrow morning, a substantial pickup in Russia sanctions,” Bessent told reporters at the White House Wednesday afternoon. “You’ll have to wait and see what it is,” he added. A White House official said the president is expected to announce a significant uptick in new sanctions related to Russia. The sanctions are not expected to be about China.https://edition.cnn.com/2025/10/22/politics/bessent-sanctions-russia (If they are direct sanctions (not oil related or secondary) on trade than it's insignificant as "trade" between USA and Russia is very... very low)
  9. This is interesting: 'Trump believes he's set trap': analyst on high-stakes Budapest summit "It was not for nothing that Putin called on Thursday, October 16; the Kremlin initiated a phone call with Trump. Because the Russian Federation calculated that a thousand Tomahawks are not needed, 50-60 units are enough to cause a blackout in the European part of the Russian Federation by attacking seven critical points of the Russian energy system, or to stop the export of oil from Russia by blocking the ports in the Baltic and Black Seas. This was a calculation. And 50-60 Tomahawks is quite realistic, based on various launch scenarios," commented Ihor Chalenko.https://global.espreso.tv/russia-ukraine-war-trump-believes-hes-set-trap-analyst-on-high-stakes-budapest-summit
  10. This is how "fake peace" is being done... I am not surprised why Jehovah picked the PS moment as a start of GT. What is being done in relation to Peace in the world .. Middle East, Ukraine is truly a veneer indeed. Donald Trump and Volodymyr Zelensky were relatively cordial at a luncheon meeting in front of reporters Friday, but the goodwill reportedly devolved into a “shouting match” when the two leaders disappeared behind closed doors. “The meeting between the US and Ukrainian presidents descended many times into a ‘shouting match,’ with Trump ‘cursing all the time,’ people familiar with the matter said,” according to the report. At one point in the meeting, the US president threw Ukraine’s maps of the battlefield to one side, the official familiar with the encounter said. According to the official, Trump said he was “sick” of seeing the map of the frontline of Ukraine again and again. https://www.yahoo.com/news/articles/trump-reportedly-berated-zelensky-closed-214356257.html?guccounter=1&guce_referrer=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuZ29vZ2xlLmNvbS8&guce_referrer_sig=AQAAANO-8cQdeYvdm9ND8EUxt4QKFj-y-HAq1d-EZ54WXDu4bM8SeWDgKErBm_ACyd_DXE5h2u2nozzde4Cirrn-wyrDm2QwD5NowTgtSZFWI0WVBl8JLkalZ6UHYADFe3B9nvSCjlrl29DdtdXGBRMQK9d9GAcrHUAyRJ6tLg-4lNJW
  11. Iranian-backed Houthi rebels detained two dozen UN employees Sunday, a day after they raided another UN facility in the capital Sanaa, a UN official said.https://edition.cnn.com/2025/10/19/middleeast/yemens-houthi-rebels-un-detain-20-intl-latam
  12. Ceasefire does not remove ideology, therefore removal of false religion, religious education and public worship may seem as a good solution for the nations. Since its creation in December 1987, Hamas has invoked militant interpretations of Islam to spearhead a Sunni extremist movement committed to destroying Israel. Hamas is an Arabic acronym for the Islamic Resistance Movement. It has called on members of the other two Abrahamic faiths—Judaism and Christianity—to accept Islamic rule in the Middle East. “It is the duty of the followers of other religions to stop disputing the sovereignty of Islam in this region, because the day these followers should take over there will be nothing but carnage, displacement and terror,” it decreed. Hamas also rejected any prospect of peace or coexistence with the state of Israel. “Initiatives, proposals and international conferences are all a waste of time and vain endeavors. The Palestinian people know better than to consent to having their future, rights and fate toyed with.”https://www.wilsoncenter.org/article/doctrine-hamas
  13. President Donald Trump told reporters at the White House that Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi had assured him earlier Wednesday that he would halt Russian oil imports.“I was not happy that India was buying oil, and (Modi) assured me today that they will not be buying oil from Russia. That’s a big step. Now we’ve got to get China to do the same thing,” Trump added.https://edition.cnn.com/2025/10/15/politics/modi-trump-india-importing-russian-oil
  14. Did they not create lasting peace? President Donald Trump said Wednesday that he would consider allowing Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to resume military action in Gaza if Hamas refuses to uphold its end of the ceasefire deal, telling CNN that Israeli forces could return to the streets “as soon as I say the word.” “What’s going on with Hamas – that’ll be straightened out quickly,” the president said in a brief telephone call.https://edition.cnn.com/2025/10/15/politics/hamas-warning-trump-israel-gaza
  15. Hamas stands ready to fight if war resumes in Gaza and rejects proposals to leave the territory under US President Donald Trump's peace plan, a senior official told AFP on Saturday. Political bureau member Hossam Badran also predicted difficult negotiations ahead, suggesting the key question of disarmament could be a sticking point for the Palestinian militant group. many parts of US President Donald Trump's proposal have still not been agreed, including Hamas's disarmament and plans for post-war governance. Does Hamas intend to retain its weapons? Hossam Badran: "It is important to note that Hamas's weapons are not the only ones. Today we are talking about weapons that are the weapons of the entire Palestinian people, and weapons in the Palestinian case are a natural thing and a part of history, the present, and the future. Hossam Badran: "The second phase of negotiations requires a more complex discussion, and it is not as easy as the first phase. The second phase of the Trump plan, as it is clear from the points themselves, contains many complexities and difficulties. This requires negotiations, perhaps longer, but it also requires, before that, a Palestinian national dialogue to arrive at a Palestinian national answer." Will Hamas leave the Gaza Strip? Hossam Badran: "The Hamas leaders present in the Gaza Strip are present on their land, the land they have lived on for many years, among their families and people. Therefore, the normal situation is for them to remain there... We long for the day when we can return to the land from which we were banished and displaced. https://www.news.com.au/breaking-news/hamas-ready-to-fight-if-gaza-war-resumes-official-tells-afp/news-story/33b32551ccc024e7bfa9c202d66c82dc Looks like second phase may bring complete flop. (They say peace where there is no peace)
  16. Hamas officials are seeking to assert their control over key parts of Gaza as the Israel Defence Forces withdraw from the devastated war zone, with the BBC reporting that 7000 fighters are being recalled to the territory. The mobilisation of thousands of Hamas fighters challenges a central feature of Trump’s peace plan, which says the group should disarm and have no role in the governance of Gaza.https://www.smh.com.au/world/middle-east/hamas-hostage-release-is-on-track-but-its-fighters-mobilise-in-gaza-20251012-p5n1ta.html It's very interesting what will happen after Monday or Tuesday when "peace celebrations" are over but Hamas is still there and armed. Not willing to give up weapons and governance of Gaza... Warmongering religion continues to be a disruptive force in the world; hence, the nations may feel that destroying the harlot is in their own national interests W12 9/15 Hamas: Hamas is an Islamist movement. (apart from political and militant movement) That means its ideology is rooted in a specific interpretation of Islam. Religious language and identity — Its founders based the movement on their interpretation of Islam. Foundation in Sunni Islam Hamas is a Sunni Islamist movement, drawing its inspiration from the Muslim Brotherhood (founded in Egypt in 1928). The Muslim Brotherhood believes that: Islam should guide not only personal life but also government, laws, and society. Muslim communities should be united under religious principles. Western secularism and Zionism (the movement for a Jewish state) are viewed as threats to this vision. The 1988 Hamas Charter Hamas’s original charter openly stated: Its ultimate goal is to establish an Islamic state in all of historical Palestine. It views the land as an Islamic waqf (a trust) that cannot be given up. It frames the conflict with Israel not just as political or territorial but as a religious duty. It uses religious language about jihad (which it interprets as armed struggle) to justify its actions against Israel.
  17. Hamas’s disarmament as part of US president Donald Trump’s plan for Gaza is “out of the question”, a Hamas official told Agence France-Presse (AFP) on Saturday. “The proposed weapons handover is out of the question and not negotiable,” the official said. The US president has indicated the issue of Hamas surrendering its weapons would be addressed in the second phase of the peace plan.
  18. US President Donald Trump, who will be in the region Monday, said yesterday hostages are being retrieved “now” and thinks the ceasefire will hold because they’re all tired of fighting, and this really gives the whole Middle East - this is beyond Gaza. Gaza is very important, but this is beyond Gaza. This is peace in the Middle East. And it is a beautiful thing,” he said.https://edition.cnn.com/world/live-news/israel-hamas-gaza-ceasefire-hostages-10-11-25
  19. Have you actually seen anyone here speculating? Did someone really say, in a speculative way, “This is it”? From what I can tell, I’ve only seen people sharing news links and media reports — not making bold claims. But just observing what is happening in the world.
  20. My dear friend, many prophecies are recorded in the Bible, and “Peace and Security” is just one of them. It’s important to remember that even in the first century, there is no evidence that early Christians fully understood exactly how this particular prophecy would be fulfilled. And now, two thousand years later, even the Faithful and Discreet Slave acknowledges that we cannot say with certainty how these words will unfold in real life. Some have offered suggestions—perhaps it will be a single public proclamation, or maybe a series of announcements. But the truth is, we simply do not know. And that’s okay. Here lies the gentle caution: when we discuss Bible prophecy, we should avoid speculation. Why? Because speaking too confidently about what we cannot know can create confusion or even disunity among those we love in the congregation. (W23 February)
  21. The whole thing is getting traction... US presence: The United States is sending 200 troops to the Middle East to monitor the plan’s implementation, a senior US official said. “No US troops are intended to go into Gaza,” another official said.https://edition.cnn.com/world/live-news/israel-hamas-gaza-ceasefire-agreement-10-09-25
  22. Therefore our campaign in September .. telling people that only Jehovah can end wars permanently. From our front page article on jw.org In the near future, God will end all war and establish global peace. (Psalm 46:8, 9) I have read somewhere here on the forum that brother Lett said at Switzerland's Convention .. "that war in Ukraine does not have to finish for the end to come" (can someone confirm this please?)
