Every since I became a Christian one of the things I have asked of Jesus Christ was that if I were to ever say or teach anything that was not correct that you would step in and show me what wrong I have commented so that I may always be right with Christ. A real follower of Christ will always seek to teach all things in accordance with the word of God. I take what Jesus told Paul to heart in Galatians 1:10 which says, “10 For do I now persuade men, orGod? or do I seek to please men? for if I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ.”
For some time now I have been continually bugged by the doctrine of the rapture of the Church. Jesus just would not let up on me until I did what I read about for the Bereans who checked the word daily as you can read about in the book of Acts 17:11 I quote, ” These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so.”
Since I became a Christian every Pastor that I have ever sat under taught that the rapture of the Church would be before the tribulation. I can honestly say for years I did not feel the need to even change my views on this doctrine because I really felt that the way I was taught was the way it is to be believed.
Two weeks ago I prayed to Christ a prayer because I just had this feeling in my spirit that I had been teaching something that needed to be changed. So I did what I normally do I asked Jesus to show me what was wrong! After speaking to Christ about this He began to speak to me about this pre-trib rapture doctrine.
I came to find out that if a person were to put aside all the teachings that he or she had gotten from some one and, went solely by what Jesus says via His word in the Bible than truth would come into focus. Little did I know that what I saw from such a study would rock my world. I ask you this question. What if you were taught something by your pastor that you came to find out was a false doctrine. Would you be man enough to hold to what Paul wrote us in Galatians 1:10 which says, “10 For do I now persuade men, or God? or do I seek to please men? for if I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ.” ? Life is very short and if you truly want to make an impact for Christ you will follow Galatians 1:10 to the letter. I want to thank Jesus for doing what I asked, to give me correction though my own son Adam DiMora. I came to learn that my son Adam was also going though the same thing I was with the pre-trib doctrine. I was going to make an in depth video on this issue but again the Lord me a video that sums it up best. I will say this, this video did not cover the issue of who it is that is withholding the Antichrist back before the Antichrist is revealed. If you do a in depth study of who has been holding the force of Satan back you will discover it has been Michael the archangel.
For years I have been warning that Christians were not ready for what is coming on this Earth. After coming to see what Jesus has given me on this topic from His word it is much worse than I ever realized. I welcome your comments after you watch this long video.
Did not God promise in Daniel 12:4 that in the last days knowledge would increase? I do believe this is part of this last day knowledge. For many Pastors they will not change course in the matter of this doctrine but I like Paul want to preach what Jesus has given me from His word!

Today someone emailed me to tell me that Michael archangel cannot be the one holding back the Antichrist from being revealed. He cites Jude 9 and says that Michael wasn’t even strong enough to handle getting Moses body. Which by itself may appear to be true but it is not. Let me explain.
In the Book of Jude, we read that Satan and the Archangel Michael were having a dispute, and the text says that Michael dared not rail against Satan:
But Michael the archangel, when he disputed with the devil and argued about the body of Moses, did not dare pronounce against him a railing judgment, but said, “The Lord rebuke you!” (Jude 9)
Michael deferred to Satan; so apparently, [before his fall] Lucifer was higher than Michael. Lucifer never had more inherent authority than the other highest created angels; however, initially God granted him administrative authority over all the angels: You were the anointed cherub who covers. (Ezekiel 28:14)
Who covers tells us that Lucifer was the ruler over all of the innumerable angels. It seems that he had the top position in the governance and control among the angels in God’s service on behalf of the entire created realm until he fell [and became Satan]:How you have fallen from heaven O star of the morning, son of the dawn! (Isaiah 14:12)
Today, Satan has remarkable forces (the one third of the angels who defected), but he is not more powerful than the other Archangels are — including Michael. That is important to say because if Satan has more inherent power than the others do then he would be stronger than they are, and he is NOT. Michael Michael is the only Archangel who is named and identified as Archangel in the Bible. In 1 Thessalonians 4, we read:…with the voice of the archangel and the trumpet of God… (1 Thessalonians 4:16)
Did not God promise in Daniel 12:4 that in the last days knowledge would increase? I do believe this is part of this last day knowledge. For many Pastors they will not change course in the matter of this doctrine but I like Paul want to preach what Jesus has given me from His word!
People are writing me concerning the mid-trib. I am posting my answers in order to help people see why I am holding to the mid-trib view. j
You can not just dismiss one of the most important bible verses concerning the exact timing of the rapture. Jesus told Paul us in 2 Thess 2:3 as you will see in the attachment I have sent you that two things that have to take place before the gathering of the saints. The first thing is a falling away first and notice what is second, the antichrist has to be revealed first. Now take a look in the Revelation when that happens and you will notice that it happens right after the 7th seal. This is right in the middle of the tribulation if God’s word is correct and we know that it is then the Christians will find themselves living during the 7 seals which is the tribulation being poured out by Satan on the believers. You can not get around this verse. Show me from the Bible where the antichrist does not have to be revealed first . What I am finding out from those who do not like the mid-trib view is that they have no answer to Thess 2:3 and the reason why they can not answer this is because they simply do not like the fact of where this event is seen which is right after the 7 seals, or to be exact in the middle of the tribulation.
I wanted to tell you that I agree with you that the pastor in the video I put up about the rapture is a hateful person in many ways and, I do not agree or accept the way he teaches on many issues. Not sure if you noticed but I removed his video because he is not a loving pastor but, the verses he used from the Bible to show the rapture were correct. Please stay with me on this and you will see why. Just about every person I talk to or who writes me quotes the exact same bible verse you sent to me to try and prove there is a pre-trib rapture. However, It is also very common for these same people to leave out 2 Thess 2:3 which is the scripture which gives us the very time of the rapture. I went to rapture ready since you gave me their link and once again I found the same thing to be true. Rapture ready used the exact same bible verses to try and prove pre-trib. If you go back to the link you sent me you will also notice Rapture Ready did not, I repeat, did not post 2 Thess. 2:3. Ask yourself why? Because what Paul writes us about takes place right in the middle of the tribulation when the Antichrist is revealed! Rapture ready can not get around this scripture and that is why they did not post it. I ask you this question Lori, do you believe Rapture ready or what Jesus told Paul?
Let me now address the 3 verses you sent me, first Rev. 3:10. Revelation 3:10 Since you have kept my command to endure patiently, I will also keep you from the hour of trial that is going to come on the whole world to test the inhabitants of the earth.
Did you notice Jesus said what this Church kept my command to endure patiently? Endure what? Endure the tribulation that Satan would be pouring out on the last days Church as seen from the 7 seals. The 7 seals are tribulation coming from Satan not God. Now also take notice our Lord tells us He will keep us from the very hour! I want you to notice what Christ first tells you in Matthew 24: 29. He says IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE DISTRESS OF THOSE DAYS. What days is He talking about? Again this is the tribulation from Satan not from Christ. The wrath God talks about begins after the seals and, that is the time Christ is showing us He will keep us from. This becomes clear when you read verses 29-31 below. Please read them than I will continue.
Matthew 24:29-31 “Immediately after the distress of those days“‘the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light; the stars will fall from the sky,and the heavenly bodies will be shaken.’[a] 30 “Then will appear the sign of the Son of Man in heaven. And then all the peoples of the earth[b] will mourn when they see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven, with power and great glory.[c]31 And he will send his angels with a loud trumpet call, and they will gather his elect from the four winds, from one end of the heavens to the other.
Look at verse 31. and ask this question. When are the angels coming with this trumpet call? Immediately after the signs Jesus gave us in verse 29 which are: Immediately after the distress of those days“‘the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light; the stars will fall from the sky,and the heavenly bodies will be shaken.’ Lori, this happen in the middle of the tribulation and as soon as this happens Jesus calls His Church. At this point the falling away has taken and the Antichrist is revealed and now the wrath of God begins and the Church at the very beginning of the Lord’s wrath is taken out to be with Christ. When Jesus comes back He will come back at the time when their is no light as you can see from verse 29. Remember what Jesus said how He would return? Look at Matthew 24:27 “For as lightning that comes from the east is visible even in the west, so will be the coming of the Son of Man.”
Picture what Jesus is showing us in these verses. In the middle of the tribulation everything will go dark and out of no where Jesus comes back as lightning. While the entire Earth is in darkness everything suddenly lights up and everyone see Him come back for His Church. Once again this is in the middle of the 7 year tribulation. When you put these scriptures together everything lines up but if you delete the warning in 2 Thess. 2:3 nothing lines up and that is why most pre-trib people will not say anything about this verse.
You also sent me Revelation 6:17 For the great day of their wrath has come, and who can withstand it?” What wrath. John is not talking to us about Satan’s wrath he is warning us about God’s wrath that begin to fall on the entire world Immediately after the 1/2 hour of silence in heaven which again you will see that does not happen until the 7th seal is broken at the mid point not at the beginning of the 7 year tribulation.
The last scripture you sent me was 1 Thessalonians 5:9 For God did not appoint us to wrath, but to obtain salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ, This verse still holds true as the Church will immediately be taken away after the 7th seal and see no wrath.
You also pointed out to me the following: “Not to mention the accounts of Noah, Lot, and Enoch.” I ask you this, how long did Noah have to endure the sins and live among those who defiled God? We know for sure at least 120 years because that is about the time period it took Noah to build that ark. As with the last generation Noah also had to endure patiently until God sealed Him and his family up in the Ark. Revelation 3:10 Since you have kept my command to endure patiently, I will also keep you from the hour of trial that is going to come on the whole world to test the inhabitants of the earth. Do you think Noah liked living with the ungodly until the Lord sealed him in the ark?
Lot lived in Sodom for a long time before the two angels came to get him out of the city before God’s wrath was poured out on those who have been vexing Lot. So like Noah who endured so did Lot until God stepping in to save them. However, for some reason people fail to point this out because it would not flow will with the pre-trib message.
You also mentioned Enoch in your email to prove God would remove us from the entire 7 years. However it possible that Enoch may have been chosen for an end time mission. According to the Bible, Enoch and Elijah are the only two people God took to heaven without them dying. Genesis 5:24 tells us, “Enoch walked with God; then he was no more, because God took him away.” Second Kings 2:11 tells us, “Suddenly a chariot of fire and horses of fire appeared and separated the two of them, and Elijah went up to heaven in a whirlwind.” Enoch is described as a man who “walked with God for 300 years” (Genesis 5:23). Elijah was perhaps the most powerful of God’s prophets in the Old Testament. There are also prophecies of Elijah’s return (Malachi 4:5-6).
Why did God take Enoch and Elijah? The Bible does not specifically give us the answer. Some speculate that they were taken in preparation for a role in the end times, possibly as the two witnesses in Revelation 11:3-12. This is possible, but not explicitly taught in the Bible. It may be that God desired to save Enoch and Elijah from experiencing death due to their great faithfulness in serving and obeying Him. Whatever the case, God has His purpose, and while we don’t always understand God’s plans and purposes, we know that “His way is perfect” (Psalm 18:30).
Here is the bottom line. If those you are asking about a pre-trib rapture make sure they also account for what we are told in 2 Thess. 2:3. If the person you speak with can show you that the Antichrist’s revealing comes at the beginning of the tribulation then you will have a case to stand on but the bible is very clear that this event takes place after the 7th seal. If I were you I would write the Rapture Ready people and ask them why they left out 2 Thess. 2:3?
Let us keep in mind the rapture is not a salvation issue but an issue of being right with Christ at all times so you don’t have to worry about the rapture at all!

One person has been killed and another wounded, in a shooting attack close to the town of Dolev in the Binyamin region, north of Jerusalem. Paramedics and a large team of IDF security forces – including at least one military helicopter – arrived at the scene after responding to reports that terrorists had opened fire on an Israeli vehicle at 4:15 p.m. Friday afternoon. The fatally shot victim has been identified as a 25-year-old resident of central Israel. He was initially evacuated by helicopter from the scene and transferred to Tel Hashomer hospital unconscious and in critical condition, but succumbed to his injuries shortly afterwards. The second victim was evacuated by ambulance to Tel Hashomer, with gunshot wounds to his limbs; his condition is light-to-moderate condition. According investigators, the two victims were finishing a trip to a nearby spring and had begun leaving when a Palestinian standing at the side of the road waved them down, apparently asking for help. As soon as the Israelis’ car pulled up he asked them for water, and then shot them at point-blank range and fled the scene.

Detailed report from investigators led by American Mary McGowan Davis calls on Israel to release details regarding its ‘targeting decisions’ while questioning ‘lamentable track record.’ The United Nations Independent Commission of Inquiry on Operation Protective Edge was released on Monday, saying Israel and Palestinian groups both committed abuses in the Gaza war that may amount to war crimes while also citing a press release from Hamas’ military spokesperson Abu Obeida, saying that, “In some instances, Palestinian armed groups in Gaza reportedly attempted to warn civilians in Israel of imminent attacks.” The report also suggested that Israel doesn’t do enough to investigate and punish alleged war crimes, saying that the Jewish nation must “break with its lamentable track record” and hold perpetrators accountable. Israel was called on to provide further details of its “targeting decisions” in the report, saying that this would allow for further independent assessment of its attack on Gaza. Investigators also took aim at Hamas in Gaza however, condemning the executions of alleged “collaborators” that amount to war crimes and demand that someone be held accountable.

A leaked diplomatic cable has revealed that Russia and Saudi Arabia agreed to trade votes for spots on the UN Human Rights Council. In a document hosted by WikiLeaks as part of its staggered release of 500,000 files taken after an electronic attack on the Saudi Foreign Ministry, the Permanent Mission of Saudi Arabia to the United Nations proposed an “arrangement of reciprocal support to the candidature of the Government of Russia to the Human Rights Council on the understanding that the Government of Russia would also extend its valuable support to the candidature of Saudi Arabia” in the elections to the body held in May 2013. Both countries have been criticised for human rights abuses in the past and the revelations in the cables have confirmed for some commentators the irregularity of the UNHRC’s selection process. “Ever wondered how the world’s worst regimes get on the UN Human Rights Council?” questioned executive director of UN Watch in Geneva, Hillel Neuer, on Twitter. “Now we know.” Though Saudi Arabia and Russia have often been at odds internationally – most notably backing different sides in the Syrian Civil War – the two countries have worked in tandem in other areas.

Leaders of the Jabal Druze and southern Syrian Druze community have reached a mutual non-belligerence understanding with heads of the Syrian rebel militias fighting in the region, including Al Qaeda’s arm, the Nusra Front. This is reported exclusively by debkafile’s military and intelligence sources. The United States and the King of Jordan gave the Druze guarantees that the deal struck Friday, June 10 would be honored. There and then, our sources add, Jordanian opened up a cross-border corridor to supply the half million dwellers of the Druze mountain villages with military assistance and essential supplies. debkafile has obtained the four main points of thes deal:
The Syrian Druze and anti-Assad rebel forces fighting under the Jordan-based joint command are committed to refrain from attacking the other party’s positions or places of habitation.
The Syrian rebel forces [battling Assad government forces] pledge not to enter or attack Druze villages on the Golan including Al Khader.
The Druze pledge not to permit Syrian government military and intelligence units based in their territory to operate their bases or use them for intelligence surveillance. The Druze village of Al Khader, for example, houses a Syrian air force surveillance base, which communicates directly with Syrian operational intelligence. The Druze will make sure to put it out of action.
The eight Druze militias loyal to Bashar Assad or tied to his regime and army will not be allowed to operate from southern Druze territory. All day Friday, Arab sources reported Israeli Air Force activity taking place over Syrian and Lebanese air space. Shortly before midnight, air strikes were claimed to have been conducted against targets inside Syria with no details. These reports were not confirmed.
Syria Headline: Suicide attack hit Kurdish security center in Syria’s Qamishli
On Sunday, a suicide attack hit the headquarters of the Asayish forces in the city of Qamishli, northeastern Syria. The attack, according to eyewitnesses, was carried out by a suicider wearing an explosive belt, who blew himself up in the Kurdish security center. “The attack killed a Kurdish security member and injured several others, as well as causing a huge damage in properties in the vicinity of the explosion area,” the Asayish administration in the city told ARA News. Activists accused militants of the Islamic State (IS/ISIS) of being behind Qamishli’s attack. Following the attack, the Asayish forces closed all the roads leading to the explosion area in central Qamishli. Also on Sunday, the Media Center of Asayish reported the death of one of its members, Mohammed Alwan, when an IS-linked gunman opened fire against an Asayish patrol in the town of Chel Agha (Jawadiya) in the province of Hasakah. “The Asayish forces were searching for some IS-linked wanted men from the village of Kardim near the town of Chel Agha,” the statement added. “The attacker was finally shot dead when our forces failed to capture him,” the source said, without providing further information about the rest of the IS-linked wanted men.

Kurdish Headline: Kurds find ISIS tunnel near Turkish border
Kurdish forces have discovered a 400-meter (440-yard) long tunnel dug by ISIS militants near the Turkish border with Syria, a spokesman for the militia said Monday. Kurdish People’s Protection Units, or YPG, discovered the half-completed tunnel after they captured the border town of Tal Abyad last week, spokesman Redur Khalil said. He said it wasn’t clear whether it was eventually meant to lead into Turkey as the tunnel splits into two different directions at one point. A tunnel linking Turkey to ISIS-held territory might offer some insight into the many ways in which Muslim radicals from around the world have slipped across the Turkish border to reach the fanatical group, whose territory straddles Syria and Iraq.

A Chechen terror organization which boasts “as many as 15,000” fighters has pledged its loyalty to Islamic State of Iraq and Levant (ISIL). The Caucuses Emirate is responsible for over 900 attacks in Russia since 2007 and includes extremists from Chechnya, Daghestan and Ingushetia. We need to hurry up and unite so we can cut off the heads of the infidels,” the group’s leader, Aslan Byutukayev, said in a new propaganda video. Professor Gordon Hahn of the Monterey Terrorism Research and Education Program said the Caucuses Emirate could furnish ISIL with thousands of new fighters. “The entire CE [Caucuses Emirate] insurgency and terrorist movement may be estimated to number some 15,200 soldiers, leaders and facilitators,” Hahn wrote in his book The Caucasus Emirate Mujahedin. ISIL may add several thousand more fighters if a recently released video entitled “Soon, Soon” proves to be true. In the video, an unknown organization called “ISIL Tunisia Province” said it planned to set up a base and supply ISIL with 3,000 jihadi soldiers.

There should also be no demographic changes or population shifts on the Syrian side of the border as a result of Kurdish military offensives against Islamic State (IS) militants, also known as ISIL, according to a policy document reportedly approved by Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan. The document was drafted during two high-level security meetings at Turkey’s foreign ministry, after Kurdish fighters captured the Syrian border town of Tal Abyad from the Islamic State last week. “No one can act in their own interest just because they are fighting ISIL…. The demographic structure of the region cannot be changed through a fait accompli,” states one section of the document leaked to Turkey’s Hurriyet newspaper.

Headline: Saudi top secret memo says Iran bombed South Sudan
Top secret Saudi documents published by Wikileaks Friday reveal intrigue surrounding politics in the Middle East, making claims about Iranian military involvement in South Sudan as well claiming Gulf countries considered buying freedom for Egypt’s ousted strongman Hosni Mubarak to the tune of $10 billion. WikiLeaks has so far published roughly 60,000 documents, of which The Associated Press has only been able to authenticate a handful. But the organization has a long track record of hosting large leaks of government material and insists the latest batch is genuine. Saudi officials have not explicitly challenged the authenticity of the documents and Saudi diplomats have not answered repeated requests for comment. One memo, marked “top secret,” makes the startling claim that Iranian fighter jets bombed South Sudanese forces during a 2012 standoff over the oil-rich area of Heglig. AP noted there are many such hard-to-confirm stories in the Saudi documents. According to the documents, Saudis kept a watchful eye on Iran’s friends, real or perceived. One 2012 memo warned that Iran was getting “flirting American messages” suggesting that the U.S. had no objections to a peaceful Iranian nuclear program so long as it had guarantees, “possibly Russian ones.” Another memo, dated to 2012, accuses the United Arab Emirates of helping Russia and Iran circumvent international sanctions.

Headline: Iran lawmakers ban nuclear inspectors from military sites
With some lawmakers chanting “Death to the America,” Iran’s parliament voted to ban access to military sites, documents and scientists as part of a future deal with world powers over its contested nuclear program. The bill, if ratified, could complicate the ongoing talks in Vienna between Iran and the six-nation group — the U.S., Britain, France, Russia, China and Germany — as they face a self-imposed June 30 deadline. The talks are focused on reaching a final accord that curbs Iran’s nuclear program in return for the lifting of economic sanctions.

Headline: Afghans counter Taliban offensive in northern Kunduz province
Government forces in northern Afghanistan have launched a counter-offensive against the Taliban, after they took control of a key district. Chardara is just a few kilometres from the city of Kunduz, and a major road to the capital Kabul runs through it. A Taliban website showed militants parading around a well-fortified police post they had seized. The government says it has regained control of another northern district, Yumgan in Badakshan province. Chardara local official Muhammad Yusuf Ayubi told AFP news agency that the district had fallen to the Taliban after hours of fighting, adding that 12 soldiers had died and 17 were wounded. Last month tens of thousands of people were displaced after the Taliban moved into the same area. The government believes that there are many foreign fighters allied to Islamic State fighting alongside the Taliban here.

Headline: Taliban attack Afghan parliament, seize 2 districts in north
A Taliban suicide bomber and six gunmen attacked the Afghan parliament on Monday as lawmakers met to consider a new defense minister, and another district in the volatile north fell to the militants as they intensified a summer offensive. Monday’s attack, in which at least 19 people were wounded, began as lawmakers met with the new acting defense minister, Masoom Stanikzai, the third candidate so far for the key security post whose appointment must be confirmed by parliament.A Taliban fighter detonated a car loaded with explosives outside parliament gates, said Ebadullah Karimi, spokesman for Kabul police, raising questions about how the driver got through several security checkpoints.Six gunmen took up positions in a building near parliament, he said, but never breached the compound’s gates. Security forces killed the six after a gun battle lasting nearly two hours.Kabul police chief Abdul Rahman Rahimi said all lawmakers were safe. TV pictures showed the speaker sitting calmly and legislators leaving the building, engulfed in dust and smoke, without panicking. Four women were among the 19 people wounded, said Sayed Kabir Amiri, a health official who coordinates Kabul hospitals.Taliban spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid claimed responsibility. A district in the northern province of Kunduz fell to the Taliban on Monday, the second such loss in two days. Officials said the militants were able to take over when urgently needed reinforcements failed to arrive.The Taliban captured Dasht-e-Archi district a day after hundreds of militants fought their way to the center of the adjacent district of Chardara.

Headline: Leaks allege assassination plot hatched by Egypt and Sudan
Egypt and Sudan collaborated in a plot to assassinate the president of South Sudan after the country secured independence in 2011, according to a document allegedly leaked from Saudi Arabia’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs. A document released on Friday by WikiLeaks, part of the first batch of 500,000 set to be published in the coming weeks, appears to show that the Saudi Foreign Minister, Saud al-Faisal, wrote to the Saudi king, who also serves as the prime minister, about the plan to kill Salva Kiir Mayardit. Kiir led the government of southern Sudan until the secession of South Sudan from the north in 2011, when he became president – the leaked letter is not dated, but refers to the statesman as “the president of South Sudan”. According to the document text, Egypt’s intelligence apparatus sent “three of its most dangerous agents” to stay in the upmarket Khartoum district of Garden City. “The aim of sending them to Khartoum is to formulate a joint plan with the Sudanese intelligence for the elimination and assassination” of Kiir and some of his aides, Faisal allegedly wrote. The letter, which is not marked as confidential, ends with a plea for the Saudi prime minister to “examine” the contents of the document. The Egyptian and Sudanese authorities have not given any official statement about the allegations.

Headline: Tripoli forces hit Islamic State in Libya with air strikes
Libya’s self-declared government in control of the capital Tripoli has launched air strikes on Islamic State fighters in the city of Sirte, officials and witnesses said on Monday. Officials said the late Sunday night attacks were on a building where fighters had gathered, but gave no details of casualties. Witnesses reported they were accurate and said wounded militants had been taken to hospital. Fighters allied to Islamic State commanders in Iraq and Syria have been gaining ground in Libya, where two rival governments are battling for control and militants have taken advantage of the security vacuum. Islamist State has gained ground in cities like Sirte and Derna to the east, challenging local armed groups and government forces alike. “Warplanes of the air force of the National Salvation government conducted air strikes last night on an internal security building in Sirte,” ministry of defense spokesman Mohamed Abdulkafi said by phone, referring to the Tripoli government. “The strikes targeted a gathering of militants of Islamic State. No figures of casualties from the strikes have been reported so far,” he said. An eyewitness said the bombs hit a former headquarters of former ruler Muammar Gaddafi’s security forces in Sirte.

Headline: Thousands march in Armenia against price hikes
Some 4,000 Armenians took to the streets of the ex-Soviet republic’s capital Monday to protest against the government’s decision to hike electricity prices, an AFP journalist reported. Chanting “No to robbery!” and “Don’t slip your hands into our pockets,” protesters marched from Yerevan’s central Freedom Square toward the presidential palace where they were met by police cordons. Protesters accused President Serzh Sarkisian’s government of hiking power tariffs and failing to stem poverty in the landlocked Caucasus nation. A country of 3.2 million, Armenia has been badly affected by the economic crisis in Russia. Exports to Russia have fallen, as have remittances from Armenians working there. On Monday, EU foreign ministers agreed to prolong damaging economic sanctions against Russia until January 2016 over Moscow’s role in the Ukrainian crisis. In January, Armenia joined the Russia-led Eurasian Customs Union, further increasing Yerevan’s dependence on its former imperial master. The ex-Soviet country is economically isolated as its borders with Turkey and Azerbaijan are blocked due to ongoing international disputes.

Headline: Islamists kill 8 officers in attack on Somali police station
Al Shabaab, al Qaeda’s official branch in Somalia, claims to have ambushed and killed more than 60 Ethiopian troops in southern Somalia last week. The claim has not yet been independently confirmed by the African Union Mission in Somalia (AMISOM), and the Ethiopian government has yet to release a statement about the attack. The statement from Shabaab’s media office, which has been translated by the SITE Intelligence Group, says that the “highly successful ambush carried out by a company of Mujahideen fighters from the ‘Sheikh Abu Zubayr Battalion’ began on Thursday (June 11) afternoon.” The battalion identified in the statement is named after the former emir of Al Shabaab, who was killed in a US drone strike last year. The jihadist group continues by saying that the unit destroyed 13 vehicles and killed dozens of soldiers in the Ethiopian convoy after “mowing them down with machine guns.” Shabaab claims that this ambush caused many in the Ethiopian ranks to retreat, leaving behind military hardware and “many of their comrades.” When the Ethiopian contingent sent reinforcements to the area the next morning, Shabaab said that it targeted the convoy “with a martyrdom operation,” or suicide bombing. The jihadists claimed to have destroyed many more vehicles and killed several more Ethiopian troops in this attack.

Headline: 30 dead after 2 girls blow selves up near northeast Nigeria mosque
Two girls blew themselves up on Monday near a crowded mosque in northeast Nigeria’s biggest city, killing about 30 people, witnesses said. It is the fourth suicide bombing this month in Maiduguri, which is the birthplace of the Boko Haram Islamic extremist group. Fishmonger Idi Idrisa said one teenager exploded as she approached the mosque crowded with people from the nearby Baga Road fish market, performing afternoon prayers during the holy month of Ramadan. The second teen appeared to run away and blew up further away, killing only herself, he said. Civilian defense fighter, Sama Ila Abu, said he counted at least 30 corpses as he helped to collect the dead. Both men said said there were many injured being sent to the hospitals. Boko Haram has kidnapped hundreds and hundreds of girls and women and the numbers of female suicide bombers has raised fears that it is using the captives in its campaign. A military bomb disposal expert has told the AP that most bombs carried by girls and women have remote devices, meaning the carrier cannot control the explosion.

ISIS said it was behind a car bomb that exploded in Yemen’s capital Sanaa Saturday near the Qiba al-Mahdi mosque, killing two people and wounding six others, witnesses and a security source told Reuters. The group said in a statement published on militant Twitter accounts that the attack was targeting the Houthi militia, whose fighters have used the mosque, located in the old city of Sanaa. On Wednesday the Sunni Muslim jihadi group claimed responsibility for four car bombs that detonated near mosques used by the Houthis and the group’s headquarters in Sanaa, killing two and injuring around 60 people.

Russia would take military “countermeasures” if Sweden were to join Nato, according to the Russian ambassador. In an interview with Swedish newspaper Dagens Nyheter, Viktor Tatarinstev warned against joining the Nato alliance, saying there would be “consequences”. Decrying what he called an “aggressive propaganda campaign” by the media, Tatarinstev stressed that “Sweden is not a target for our armed troops”. But with a recent surge of Swedish support for joining Nato, the ambassador said: “If it happens, there will be counter measures. “Putin pointed out that there will be consequences, that Russia will have to resort to a response of the military kind and re-orientate our troops and missiles. “The country that joins Nato needs to be aware of the risks it is exposing itself to.”

Headline: At least 10 wildfires rage on in four states
Wildfires have destroyed more than 45,000 acres in the West this week. At least ten major fires are burning in Arizona, California, Oregon and Alaska. One of the biggest is in the San Bernardino Mountains, east of Los Angeles. Helicopters are attacking the 11,000-acre fire from above, as hundreds of firefighters battle it on the ground. About 400 campers and residents were ordered to evacuate the heavily-wooded area. Further north in California, a wildfire in the Sierra National Forest south of Yosemite National Park has grown to over 500 acres. For now, the fire threatens few buildings but it destroyed Roy McCain’s home. “It’s a loss. Everything I have is gone,” McCain told CBS News. Even in Alaska fire season has started with a vengeance. The 7,000-acre Sockeye Fire burned right across the Parks Highway, between Anchorage and Fairbanks. With conditions so dry after four years of drought, work to prevent wildfires is particularly urgent this year. North of San Francisco, work crews have been busy where forest grows to the edge of densely-populated towns. Watershed manager Carl Sanders told CBS News his primary concern is dead and dying trees, and overgrown brush, which he refers to as “fuel load.” In preparation for a worst-case fire season, California has added two additional large air tankers to its fleet and hired 300 extra firefighters.

Headline: Rebels surround Druze village in Syria’s Golan: activists
Israel has relayed messages to Sunni rebel groups operating in the Syrian part of the Golan Heights, warning them against attacking or drawing near the Druze village of Khadr, located near the Israeli border not far from the northern Mount Hermon. The village of Khadr has been surrounded by rebel forces after heavy fighting on Wednesday, mainly between Free Syrian Army and Assad regime forces, AFP reported, citing the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights monitoring group. Khadr “is now totally surrounded by rebels, who just took a strategic hilltop north of the village,” Observatory director Rami Abdel Rahman told AFP. According to Abdel Rahman, the rebels received reinforcement from Quneitra, near the border, but the regime has yet to send reinforcements to the village. “[T]he Druze villagers are standing with the government,” he added. Though there are no reports of casualties in Khadr, the residents are in a panic, and are requesting assistance from fellow Druze across the border in Israel. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told the Knesset plenum on Wednesday that Israel is “following the events closely.” He added: “I have given instructions that all the necessary actions be taken, and I suggest you will suffice with this statement.”

Headline: IDF Shoots 2 Terrorists Attacking Jews at Joseph’s Tomb
IDF soldiers on Thursday shot two Arab terrorists taking part in attacks against Jewish visitors to Joseph’s Tomb at Shechem (Nablus) in Samaria, according to Palestinian Authority (PA) security officials. The IDF allows Jews to visit the tomb of the Biblical figure only once a month for Rosh Chodesh, the new month festival, out of security concerns in the hostile city. The entrance of Jews on buses in the dead of night evidently turned into a target for Arab rioters in the pre-dawn nighttime hours of Thursday morning. The Palestinian Arab Ma’an News Agency identified the two terrorists as 23-year-old Iyad Muin Mohammed Kalbuna, who was shot in his left foot, and 24-year-old Mohammed Ghassan Hammad Hashash of the Balata “refugee camp” who was shot in the thigh. Both terrorists were taken to Rafidia Hospital for treatment. The Arab site did not detail how the Arab rioters were attacking the Jewish visitors, although firebombs and rocks have been used at the Tomb in the past against Jews, as riots have become an all too frequent occurrence. According to the 1993 Oslo Accords, Joseph’s Tomb was supposed to remain under full Israeli control.

Headline: Jordan Fears Imminent ISIS Invasion
Jordan is gearing up for a possible invasion by Islamic terror groups, local media reported Thursday. According to reports, King Abdullah II, on a tour this week of border areas near Iraq and Syria, offered to arm Bedouin tribes living in those areas – on both sides of the border – to fight against Islamic State and Jabhat al-Nusra, which threaten Jordan from the east and north. Abdullah’s concern has been growing in recent weeks, reports said, over the fact that after 3,000 bombing raids by the US and its allies, ISIS has not been beaten back – and seems only to get stronger. With the organization solidifying its rule in much of Iraq and Syria = and in line with its pledge to expand its “Islamic caliphate” to the entire world, starting with the Muslim countries – Abdullah believes that Jordan is high up on ISIS’s list for an attempted takeover. Meanwhile, Jordan faces another danger from the north. The Al-Nusra group, a fundamentalist organization associated with Al Qaeda, controls much of the area on the other side of the Syrian border. This group, too, has expansionist plans, and the open frontier between Syria and Jordan is almost an open invitation to incursions by the group. During a tour of the border areas on June 15, Abdullah stated that it was Jordan’s obligation “to assist Arab tribes in Iraq and Syria,” hinting that he would rely on the tribes as a first line of defense against incursions by ISIS and Al-Nusra.

Meanwhile, two sources told Reuters that the oil ministers of Russia and Saudi Arabia plan to discuss a broad cooperation agreement on Thursday at an economic forum in St Petersburg. Saudi Arabia is the top producer in the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries and the world’s top oil exporter, while Russia, which is not an OPEC member, is the second biggest oil supplier to the global markets. One source said the agreement to be discussed between Russian Energy Minister Alexander Novak and Saudi Oil Minister Ali al-Naimi would not be about joint oil production or export strategy.

Headline: Bahrain says seizes explosives meant for use in Saudi Arabia
Bahrain said on Thursday it had seized explosives and bomb-making materials earmarked for use in Bahrain and neighboring Saudi Arabia in what it described as an Iranian attempt to use Bahraini borders as a base for attacking targets in the region. Police chief Major-General Tariq al-Hasan said the methods used to assemble the explosives bore “clear similarities” to those of what he called proxy groups of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corp operating in Iraq and Afghanistan. Sunni Muslim-ruled Bahrain, home to the U.S. Navy’s Fifth Fleet, often accuses Iran, a Shi’ite Muslim theocracy, of seeking to subvert the Gulf Arab island monarchy. Iran denies interfering in Bahrain, although it acknowledges it does support opposition groups seeking greater political and economic rights for Bahrain’s Shi’ite community. There was no immediate Iranian comment on Hasan’s statement. On Tuesday, Iran’s foreign ministry had called for political dialogue in Bahrain and said Manama’s “security approach” would not solve the country’s political tensions.

At least 16 people, among them 13 children, were killed in Syrian government airstrikes on a town in the southern Daraa province on Tuesday, a monitor said, according to AFP. The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said the strikes hit a center for study of the Koran in the town of Eastern Ghariyah. The Britain-based monitor accused Syria’s government of a “massacre,” saying a woman was also among those killed in the strikes. The group said the toll in the strikes, which hit on Tuesday afternoon, was expected to rise further because a number of those injured were in serious condition. Eastern Ghariyah lies near the eastern edge of Daraa province, not far from the 52nd Brigade base that a rebel alliance seized from the regime a week ago.

Syria Headline: The YPG Campaign for Tel Abyad and Northern ar-Raqqa Province
YPG forces supported by FSA-affiliated rebel forces and U.S.-led coalition airstrikes seized the ISIS-held border crossing of Tel Abyad in northern ar-Raqqa Province on June 15, 2015, in a major victory for Syrian Kurds and the international anti-ISIS coalition. These gains successfully connect the Kurdish cantons of Kobani and Hasakah into one contiguous zone of YPG control along the Turkish border and optimally positioned joint YPG-FSA forces for an eventual advance south towards the ISIS stronghold of ar-Raqqa City. Kurdish forces cooperated with a coalition of Arab tribes, Assyrian paramilitary forces, and FSA-affiliated rebel factions to enable its rapid advance, although sustained accusations of ‘ethnic cleansing’ by the YPG of Arab civilians may disrupt wider coordination with the Syrian opposition. Recent YPG gains will also likely exacerbate tensions between Syrian Kurds, the Turkish government, and the Assad regime in a way which limits the options available to both the YPG and the U.S. in the fight against ISIS in northern and eastern Syria.

Iraq Headline: ISIS kills five policemen near Baiji refinery
ISIS has killed five policemen in a town near Iraq’s biggest refinery, in an attack that may help ease pressure on some of its fighters trapped in the strategically important facility, a security official said Wednesday. The official in a regional security command center said the insurgents mounted the operation at Tal Albu Jarad village as part of a battle for control of Baiji refinery, which has changed hands several times. After receiving reinforcements, ISIS militants recaptured three neighborhoods in the town of Baiji near the refinery, but fresh clashes have erupted there, the security official said.

Iraq Headline: Iraq denies Islamic State claim it shot down fighter plane
Islamic State said on Thursday it had shot down an Iraqi fighter plane north of the city of Ramadi in Anbar Province. It was not immediately possible to independently confirm the claim made on one of Islamic State’s Twitter accounts. A member of an anti-Islamic State Sunni force called Sahwa (Awakening) said an Iraqi jet, a Russian-made Su-25, was seen in crashing in flames after being shot down north of Ramadi. Meanwhile, Iraq’s defense ministry and the U.S. military dismissed a claim by Islamic State on Thursday that it had shot down an Iraqi fighter plane. “The publication of these false stories is part of an unjust psychological war waged by some media outlets supporting terrorism aimed at playing down the heroics of the Iraqi army,” the ministry said on its website.

A battle to oust ISIS from a key Syrian town just steps from Turkey’s border elicited a new round of allegations about Ankara’s commitment to fighting the network, but it also highlighted the difficult choices Turkey faces in dealing with the notorious militants as the only NATO country that shares a border with the caliphate. In just two weeks, more than 20,000 Syrians fleeing the fighting poured into Turkey as ISIS fighters, on the opposite side of a chain-lined fence, tried to hold their ground. By Tuesday the tide had turned and the black flag that hung menacingly at the Tal Abyad border crossing for roughly a year was torn down and replaced. Kurdish fighters and allied rebels managed to oust the radicals from the town and choke off crucial supply routes to ISIS territory in Syria. Hailed as a victory in the West, it was greeted more soberly in Ankara where the increasing power of Kurdish militias is also viewed as a threat. “This doesn’t bode well,” Turkey’s president Recep Tayyip Erdogan told reporters as the Kurdish fighters advanced. “This leads to a structure that poses a threat to our borders,” he said.

THE UN children’s agency says at least 129 children were killed – with boys castrated and girls raped – during a government offensive last month in South Sudan. UNICEF said the killings took place over three weeks in May in Unity state as the government battled rebels. Speaking in New York on Wednesday, UNICEF Executive Director Anthony Lake said survivors reported that boys were castrated and left to bleed out, while girls were gang raped and killed. South Sudanese military spokesman, Colonel Philip Aguer on Thursday questioned the credibility of the report, saying it is not in South Sudanese culture to commit such atrocities. He called for full investigations, saying whoever is responsible must face justice.

Headline: Chad says it bombs Boko Haram bases in Nigeria; Nigeria denies it
The Nigerian extremist group Boko Haram crossed into neighboring Niger and attacked two villages, killing 40 people, said a local governor Thursday. The fighters hit the villages of Lamana and Ngoumawa near the Nigerian border in the early hours of the morning, looting stores and burning homes said Yakouba Soumana Goah, the governor of the Diffa region where the attack occurred. He added that the army went in pursuit of the attackers. Meanwhile, Chad’s military said it had carried out air strikes against Boko Haram bases in Nigeria in retaliation for twin suicide bombings in Chad this week that killed at least 34 people, but the announcement was strongly denied by Nigeria. The air raids caused heavy human and material damage to six of the Islamist militants’ bases, Chad’s military said late on Wednesday, without providing further details. Nigerian authorities rejected reports that the attacks had taken place on its soil, saying they were likely instead to have been in neighboring Niger. “The claim that the Chadian military have conducted air strikes against six terrorist camps in Nigeria is not correct,” said military spokesman Major General Chris Olukolade. In recent weeks Nigeria said Boko Haram had been forced out of most of the areas it once controlled in northern Nigeria. A few hours after Chad’s announcement, Boko Haram militants attacked two villages in neighboring Niger’s southern region of Diffa, security sources said.

Two suicide bombers and another blast targeted the headquarters of Yemen’s Shiite rebels in the capital, Sanaa, on Wednesday, killing at least four people and wounding some 60 others, officials said. Earlier Saudi-led airstrikes hit a convoy of civilian vehicles and killed at least 31 people, authorities said. The Health Ministry said in a statement that the casualty figure from the Sanaa attacks on Wednesday night was “preliminary,” as Muslims around the world prepared for the start of the holy month of Ramadan. Ambulances rushed through the streets in northern and central parts of the capital where the offices of the rebels, known as Houthis, are located. Security officials said two suicide attackers drove car bombs into the gates of two buildings before detonating them. They said a third attack targeted a gathering of Houthis in Sanaa’s Green Dome district.

Headline: Eurogroup starts with talk of Greek default
Headline: Greek Banks May Not Open Monday
Christine Lagarde, the director of the International Monetary Fund (IMF), warned Thursday (18 June) that she would consider Greece to be default as early as 1 July if it fails to repay the IMF on 30 June.Under IMF rules, she has 30 days to inform the board of any failure by the Greek government to repay the €1.6 billion it owes. But Lagarde said there would be “no period of grace”. “[Greece] will be in default, it will be in arrears vis-a-vis the IMF on 1 July. But I hope it is not the case, I really do,” she told reporters in Luxembourg. A Greek default to the IMF could also lead the European Stability Mechanism (ESM), the EU emergency fund, to reclaim the money it is owned by Greece, warned ESM chief Klaus Regling. The ESM, through its predecessor fund, the EFSF, lent €130.9 million to Greece. A clause in the loan contact with Greece allows the ESM to be “immediately” repaid “with accrued interest”. Such a claim is unlikely, as Greece would not be in a position to pay. A more likely move would be for the ESM to reserve its rights, meaning taking note of the default and maintaining the possibility of reclaiming the money lent to the country. Lagarde and Regling made the comments just before a meeting of eurozone finance ministers in Luxembourg where hopes of progress between Greece and its lenders were feeble. Diplomatic sources told EUobserver no new document was on the Eurogroup table when ministers started their meeting on Thursday (18 June) afternoon. Greek finance minister Yanis Varoufakis said he would present “ideas … to replace costly discord with effective consensus”. But the president of the Eurogroup, Jeroen Dijsselbloem, told reporters he did “not have a lot of hope” of progress.

A heart patient from Oman has been confirmed as the first case of Middle East Respiratory Syndrome [MERS] in Thailand. “From two lab tests we can confirm that the MERS virus has been found,” Public Health Minister Dr. Rajata Rajatanavin told a news conference in Bangkok. The patient is a businessman from Oman, said Rajata, adding that the 75-year-old had traveled to Thailand for medical treatment for a heart condition. A doctor at Bumrungrad International Hospital suspected the man might have MERS because he was from overseas, had a respiratory complaint, and a low fever, officials told VOA News. Fifty-nine other people are being monitored for the virus either at hospitals or homes: passengers who sat two rows in front or behind the Omani man on his flight to Bangkok, health care workers, hotel employees and a taxi driver, according to Thanarath Phalipat, the director of the health ministry’s bureau of epidemiology Four family members of the Omani man, who traveled with him, are quarantined in the Bamrasnaradura Infectious Diseases Institute where the patient is being treated, and he is reported in stable condition at the institute in Nonthaburi, just north of Bangkok, officials told VOA. “We are in a state of containment,” Pasakorn Akarasewi, senior medical officer of the department of disease control told VOA News. “The infection occurred in Oman.”

The World Health Organization said last week that at least 3,000 suspected cases have been reported since March in several provinces, including Aden. It said three people died from the disease. The WHO said the last major outbreak, with 1,500 confirmed cases, was in 2011 in the western Hodeida governorate.

Headline: Hundreds of US Marines to be deployed on British warship amid Russia threat
Hundreds of elite troopers will be stationed with British troops on a Royal Navy gunship, as part of a thinly-veiled warning to the Russian president. The move is also designed to be a show of strength to nervous NATO allies across Europe, who are worried they might be the next victims of Putin’s expansionist ambitions. However, embarrassingly for Britain, the Marines may have to turn to other European nations to host their air support because the Royal Navy no longer has an aircraft carrier. Their MV22 Osprey vertical take off craft will be tested aboard the helicopter-carrying assault ship HMS Ocean, to see whether the landing deck is strong enough to withstand the force of it taking off. In previous tests the ship has proved it can operate the Osprey. The Pentagon is being forced to rely on its allies to base Marines in Europe because the intense focus on the Middle East has stretched the resources of even the world’s richest military. The normal force based in the Mediterranean – the 15th Marine Expeditionary Unit – has been relocated to the US Central Command in Iraq. Instead the US Marines will be based on British, Spanish, French and Dutch ships.

Headline: Suspect in Charleston church rampage captured in North Carolina
Dylann Storm Roof, who reportedly got a new handgun for his 21st birthday in April, was captured in North Carolina Thursday 14 hours after he allegedly shot and killed nine people in a historic black church in downtown Charleston during a Bible study meeting. Charleston Police Chief Gregory Mullen said Roof was “cooperative” when police in Shelby, N.C., acting on a tip, took him into custody 245 miles northwest of Charleston. Roof had been identified as the lone gunman within hours of the bloody attack on the Emanuel AME church around 9 p.m. Wednesday. Asked if authorities believe Roof had acted alone, Mullen said “we don’t have any reason to believe anyone else was involved.” The cold-blooded killer walked into the church and sat with the Bible group for about an hour before pulling out a semi-automatic handgun and firing, reloading, and firing again. Among the dead — three men and six women — was the pastor of the church, 41-year-old Clementa Pinckney, who was also a South Carolina state senator.

Headline: This Year Is Headed for the Hottest on Record, by a Long Shot
Drought-stricken California is not the only place draining underground aquifers in the hunt for fresh water. It’s happening across the world, according to two new studies by U.S. researchers released Tuesday. Twenty-one of the world’s 37 largest aquifers — in locations from India and China to the United States and France — have passed their sustainability tipping points, meaning more water is being removed than replaced from these vital underground reservoirs. Thirteen of 37 aquifers fell at rates that put them into the most troubled category. “The situation is quite critical,” said Jay Famiglietti, senior water scientist at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory and the studies’ principal investigator. And it’s difficult to see it getting better soon. These groundwater reserves take thousands of years to accumulate and only slowly recharge with water from snowmelt and rains. Now, as drilling for water has taken off across the globe, the hidden water reservoirs are being stressed. Underground aquifers supply 35 percent of the water used by humans worldwide. Demand is even greater in times of drought. Rain-starved California is currently tapping aquifers for 60 percent of its water use, up from the usual 40 percent.

Israel has relayed messages to Sunni rebel groups operating in the Syrian part of the Golan Heights, warning them against attacking or drawing near the Druze village of Khadr, located near the Israeli border not far from the northern Mount Hermon. The village of Khadr has been surrounded by rebel forces after heavy fighting on Wednesday, mainly between Free Syrian Army and Assad regime forces, AFP reported, citing the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights monitoring group. Khadr “is now totally surrounded by rebels, who just took a strategic hilltop north of the village,” Observatory director Rami Abdel Rahman told AFP. According to Abdel Rahman, the rebels received reinforcement from Quneitra, near the border, but the regime has yet to send reinforcements to the village. “[T]he Druze villagers are standing with the government,” he added. Though there are no reports of casualties in Khadr, the residents are in a panic, and are requesting assistance from fellow Druze across the border in Israel.

IDF soldiers on Thursday shot two Arab terrorists taking part in attacks against Jewish visitors to Joseph’s Tomb at Shechem (Nablus) in Samaria, according to Palestinian Authority (PA) security officials. The IDF allows Jews to visit the tomb of the Biblical figure only once a month for Rosh Chodesh, the new month festival, out of security concerns in the hostile city. The entrance of Jews on buses in the dead of night evidently turned into a target for Arab rioters in the pre-dawn nighttime hours of Thursday morning. The Palestinian Arab Ma’an News Agency identified the two terrorists as 23-year-old Iyad Muin Mohammed Kalbuna, who was shot in his left foot, and 24-year-old Mohammed Ghassan Hammad Hashash of the Balata “refugee camp” who was shot in the thigh. Both terrorists were taken to Rafidia Hospital for treatment. The Arab site did not detail how the Arab rioters were attacking the Jewish visitors, although firebombs and rocks have been used at the Tomb in the past against Jews, as riots have become an all too frequent occurrence. According to the 1993 Oslo Accords, Joseph’s Tomb was supposed to remain under full Israeli control. June 18, 2015

Headline: Jordan Fears Imminent ISIS Invasion
Jordan is gearing up for a possible invasion by Islamic terror groups, local media reported Thursday. According to reports, King Abdullah II, on a tour this week of border areas near Iraq and Syria, offered to arm Bedouin tribes living in those areas – on both sides of the border – to fight against Islamic State and Jabhat al-Nusra, which threaten Jordan from the east and north. Abdullah’s concern has been growing in recent weeks, reports said, over the fact that after 3,000 bombing raids by the US and its allies, ISIS has not been beaten back – and seems only to get stronger. With the organization solidifying its rule in much of Iraq and Syria = and in line with its pledge to expand its “Islamic caliphate” to the entire world, starting with the Muslim countries – Abdullah believes that Jordan is high up on ISIS’s list for an attempted takeover. Meanwhile, Jordan faces another danger from the north. The Al-Nusra group, a fundamentalist organization associated with Al Qaeda, controls much of the area on the other side of the Syrian border. This group, too, has expansionist plans, and the open frontier between Syria and Jordan is almost an open invitation to incursions by the group. During a tour of the border areas on June 15, Abdullah stated that it was Jordan’s obligation “to assist Arab tribes in Iraq and Syria,” hinting that he would rely on the tribes as a first line of defense against incursions by ISIS and Al-Nusra.

Bahrain said on Thursday it had seized explosives and bomb-making materials earmarked for use in Bahrain and neighboring Saudi Arabia in what it described as an Iranian attempt to use Bahraini borders as a base for attacking targets in the region. Police chief Major-General Tariq al-Hasan said the methods used to assemble the explosives bore “clear similarities” to those of what he called proxy groups of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corp operating in Iraq and Afghanistan. Sunni Muslim-ruled Bahrain, home to the U.S. Navy’s Fifth Fleet, often accuses Iran, a Shi’ite Muslim theocracy, of seeking to subvert the Gulf Arab island monarchy. Iran denies interfering in Bahrain, although it acknowledges it does support opposition groups seeking greater political and economic rights for Bahrain’s Shi’ite community. There was no immediate Iranian comment on Hasan’s statement. On Tuesday, Iran’s foreign ministry had called for political dialogue in Bahrain and said Manama’s “security approach” would not solve the country’s political tensions. June 18, 2015

YPG forces supported by FSA-affiliated rebel forces and U.S.-led coalition airstrikes seized the ISIS-held border crossing of Tel Abyad in northern ar-Raqqa Province on June 15, 2015, in a major victory for Syrian Kurds and the international anti-ISIS coalition. These gains successfully connect the Kurdish cantons of Kobani and Hasakah into one contiguous zone of YPG control along the Turkish border and optimally positioned joint YPG-FSA forces for an eventual advance south towards the ISIS stronghold of ar-Raqqa City. Kurdish forces cooperated with a coalition of Arab tribes, Assyrian paramilitary forces, and FSA-affiliated rebel factions to enable its rapid advance, although sustained accusations of ‘ethnic cleansing’ by the YPG of Arab civilians may disrupt wider coordination with the Syrian opposition. Recent YPG gains will also likely exacerbate tensions between Syrian Kurds, the Turkish government, and the Assad regime in a way which limits the options available to both the YPG and the U.S. in the fight against ISIS in northern and eastern Syria.

The official in a regional security command center said the insurgents mounted the operation at Tal Albu Jarad village as part of a battle for control of Baiji refinery, which has changed hands several times. After receiving reinforcements, ISIS militants recaptured three neighborhoods in the town of Baiji near the refinery, but fresh clashes have erupted there, the security official said. June 17, 2015
Iraq Headline: ISIS claims to have shot down an Iraqi fighter plane
Iraq Headline: Iraq denies Islamic State claim it shot down fighter plane
Islamic State said on Thursday it had shot down an Iraqi fighter plane north of the city of Ramadi in Anbar Province. It was not immediately possible to independently confirm the claim made on one of Islamic State’s Twitter accounts. A member of an anti-Islamic State Sunni force called Sahwa (Awakening) said an Iraqi jet, a Russian-made Su-25, was seen in crashing in flames after being shot down north of Ramadi. Meanwhile, Iraq’s defense ministry and the U.S. military dismissed a claim by Islamic State on Thursday that it had shot down an Iraqi fighter plane. “The publication of these false stories is part of an unjust psychological war waged by some media outlets supporting terrorism aimed at playing down the heroics of the Iraqi army,” the ministry said on its website.

Headline: PKK-linked PYD’s takeover of Tal Abyad direct threat, says president Erdoğan
A battle to oust ISIS from a key Syrian town just steps from Turkey’s border elicited a new round of allegations about Ankara’s commitment to fighting the network, but it also highlighted the difficult choices Turkey faces in dealing with the notorious militants as the only NATO country that shares a border with the caliphate. In just two weeks, more than 20,000 Syrians fleeing the fighting poured into Turkey as ISIS fighters, on the opposite side of a chain-lined fence, tried to hold their ground. By Tuesday the tide had turned and the black flag that hung menacingly at the Tal Abyad border crossing for roughly a year was torn down and replaced. Kurdish fighters and allied rebels managed to oust the radicals from the town and choke off crucial supply routes to ISIS territory in Syria. Hailed as a victory in the West, it was greeted more soberly in Ankara where the increasing power of Kurdish militias is also viewed as a threat. “This doesn’t bode well,” Turkey’s president Recep Tayyip Erdogan told reporters as the Kurdish fighters advanced. “This leads to a structure that poses a threat to our borders,” he said.

THE UN children’s agency says at least 129 children were killed – with boys castrated and girls raped – during a government offensive last month in South Sudan. UNICEF said the killings took place over three weeks in May in Unity state as the government battled rebels. Speaking in New York on Wednesday, UNICEF Executive Director Anthony Lake said survivors reported that boys were castrated and left to bleed out, while girls were gang raped and killed. South Sudanese military spokesman, Colonel Philip Aguer on Thursday questioned the credibility of the report, saying it is not in South Sudanese culture to commit such atrocities. He called for full investigations, saying whoever is responsible must face justice. June 18, 2015
Luke 21:9 and Matthew 24:7 speak of nation against nation and kingdom against kingdom in the end times. Revelation 6:3-4 speaks of the fiery red horse given power to make men slay one another and Revelation 6:8 speaks again of this red horse in conjunction with the pale horse of Death and Hades, as the one that has the power to kill by sword. Luke 21:9: wars & commotions; the Greek word here is Akatastasia, meaning instability, a state of disorder, disturbance, confusion (revolutions) Matthew 24:7: the Greek word for nation is Ethnos & refers to various ethnic groups fighting among themselves, where the next sentence in the verse refers to kingdoms (basileiva) fighting one another (not to be confused with an actual kingdom but rather the right or authority to rule over a kingdom)
Headline: Boko Haram attacks villages in Niger, 40 dead, says official
Headline: Chad says it bombs Boko Haram bases in Nigeria; Nigeria denies it
The Nigerian extremist group Boko Haram crossed into neighboring Niger and attacked two villages, killing 40 people, said a local governor Thursday. The fighters hit the villages of Lamana and Ngoumawa near the Nigerian border in the early hours of the morning, looting stores and burning homes said Yakouba Soumana Goah, the governor of the Diffa region where the attack occurred. He added that the army went in pursuit of the attackers. Meanwhile, Chad’s military said it had carried out air strikes against Boko Haram bases in Nigeria in retaliation for twin suicide bombings in Chad this week that killed at least 34 people, but the announcement was strongly denied by Nigeria. The air raids caused heavy human and material damage to six of the Islamist militants’ bases, Chad’s military said late on Wednesday, without providing further details. Nigerian authorities rejected reports that the attacks had taken place on its soil, saying they were likely instead to have been in neighboring Niger. “The claim that the Chadian military have conducted air strikes against six terrorist camps in Nigeria is not correct,” said military spokesman Major General Chris Olukolade. In recent weeks Nigeria said Boko Haram had been forced out of most of the areas it once controlled in northern Nigeria. A few hours after Chad’s announcement, Boko Haram militants attacked two villages in neighboring Niger’s southern region of Diffa, security sources said. June 18, 2015

Two suicide bombers and another blast targeted the headquarters of Yemen’s Shiite rebels in the capital, Sanaa, on Wednesday, killing at least four people and wounding some 60 others, officials said. Earlier Saudi-led airstrikes hit a convoy of civilian vehicles and killed at least 31 people, authorities said. The Health Ministry said in a statement that the casualty figure from the Sanaa attacks on Wednesday night was “preliminary,” as Muslims around the world prepared for the start of the holy month of Ramadan. Ambulances rushed through the streets in northern and central parts of the capital where the offices of the rebels, known as Houthis, are located. Security officials said two suicide attackers drove car bombs into the gates of two buildings before detonating them. They said a third attack targeted a gathering of Houthis in Sanaa’s Green Dome district. June 18, 2015
Economic collapse Revelation 6:5-6 & Daniel 2:41-43– Decline of the Euro “ When He opened the third seal, I heard the third living creature say, “Come and see.” So I looked, and behold, a black horse, and he who sat on it had a pair of scales in his hand. 6 And I heard a voice in the midst of the four living creatures saying, “A quart of wheat for a denarius, and three quarts of barley for a denarius; and do not harm the oil and the wine.” (Revelation) “Whereas you saw the feet and toes, partly of potter’s clay and partly of iron, the kingdom shall be divided; yet the strength of the iron shall be in it, just as you saw the iron mixed with ceramic clay. 42 And as the toes of the feet were partly of iron and partly of clay, so the kingdom shall be partly strong and partly fragile. 43 As you saw iron mixed with ceramic clay, they will mingle with the seed of men; but they will not adhere to one another, just as iron does not mix with clay.” (Daniel 2:41-43)
Headline: Eurogroup starts with talk of Greek default
Headline: Greek Banks May Not Open Monday
Christine Lagarde, the director of the International Monetary Fund (IMF), warned Thursday (18 June) that she would consider Greece to be default as early as 1 July if it fails to repay the IMF on 30 June.Under IMF rules, she has 30 days to inform the board of any failure by the Greek government to repay the €1.6 billion it owes. But Lagarde said there would be “no period of grace”. “[Greece] will be in default, it will be in arrears vis-a-vis the IMF on 1 July. But I hope it is not the case, I really do,” she told reporters in Luxembourg. A Greek default to the IMF could also lead the European Stability Mechanism (ESM), the EU emergency fund, to reclaim the money it is owned by Greece, warned ESM chief Klaus Regling. The ESM, through its predecessor fund, the EFSF, lent €130.9 million to Greece. A clause in the loan contact with Greece allows the ESM to be “immediately” repaid “with accrued interest”. Such a claim is unlikely, as Greece would not be in a position to pay. A more likely move would be for the ESM to reserve its rights, meaning taking note of the default and maintaining the possibility of reclaiming the money lent to the country. Lagarde and Regling made the comments just before a meeting of eurozone finance ministers in Luxembourg where hopes of progress between Greece and its lenders were feeble. Diplomatic sources told EUobserver no new document was on the Eurogroup table when ministers started their meeting on Thursday (18 June) afternoon. Greek finance minister Yanis Varoufakis said he would present “ideas … to replace costly discord with effective consensus”. But the president of the Eurogroup, Jeroen Dijsselbloem, told reporters he did “not have a lot of hope” of progress. June 18, 2015

A heart patient from Oman has been confirmed as the first case of Middle East Respiratory Syndrome [MERS] in Thailand. “From two lab tests we can confirm that the MERS virus has been found,” Public Health Minister Dr. Rajata Rajatanavin told a news conference in Bangkok. The patient is a businessman from Oman, said Rajata, adding that the 75-year-old had traveled to Thailand for medical treatment for a heart condition. A doctor at Bumrungrad International Hospital suspected the man might have MERS because he was from overseas, had a respiratory complaint, and a low fever, officials told VOA News. Fifty-nine other people are being monitored for the virus either at hospitals or homes: passengers who sat two rows in front or behind the Omani man on his flight to Bangkok, health care workers, hotel employees and a taxi driver, according to Thanarath Phalipat, the director of the health ministry’s bureau of epidemiology Four family members of the Omani man, who traveled with him, are quarantined in the Bamrasnaradura Infectious Diseases Institute where the patient is being treated, and he is reported in stable condition at the institute in Nonthaburi, just north of Bangkok, officials told VOA. “We are in a state of containment,” Pasakorn Akarasewi, senior medical officer of the department of disease control told VOA News. “The infection occurred in Oman.” June 18, 2015
Headline: Dengue fever outbreak infects thousands in war-torn Yemen
Thousands of people have been diagnosed with dengue fever in southern Yemen, where fighting has raged for months between Shiite rebels and their opponents, international organizations and health officials said Thursday. The top health ministry official in the southern port city of Aden, Al-Khadr Al-Aswar, told The Associated Press that at least 5,000 people have been diagnosed with the mosquito-borne virus. He said mountains of uncollected garbage, sewage and heat have contributed to the spread of the disease. The World Health Organization said last week that at least 3,000 suspected cases have been reported since March in several provinces, including Aden. It said three people died from the disease. The WHO said the last major outbreak, with 1,500 confirmed cases, was in 2011 in the western Hodeida governorate. June 18, 2015

Headline: Hundreds of US Marines to be deployed on British warship amid Russia threat
Hundreds of elite troopers will be stationed with British troops on a Royal Navy gunship, as part of a thinly-veiled warning to the Russian president. The move is also designed to be a show of strength to nervous NATO allies across Europe, who are worried they might be the next victims of Putin’s expansionist ambitions. However, embarrassingly for Britain, the Marines may have to turn to other European nations to host their air support because the Royal Navy no longer has an aircraft carrier. Their MV22 Osprey vertical take off craft will be tested aboard the helicopter-carrying assault ship HMS Ocean, to see whether the landing deck is strong enough to withstand the force of it taking off. In previous tests the ship has proved it can operate the Osprey. The Pentagon is being forced to rely on its allies to base Marines in Europe because the intense focus on the Middle East has stretched the resources of even the world’s richest military. The normal force based in the Mediterranean – the 15th Marine Expeditionary Unit – has been relocated to the US Central Command in Iraq. Instead the US Marines will be based on British, Spanish, French and Dutch ships. June 16, 2015

Headline: Suspect in Charleston church rampage captured in North Carolina
Dylann Storm Roof, who reportedly got a new handgun for his 21st birthday in April, was captured in North Carolina Thursday 14 hours after he allegedly shot and killed nine people in a historic black church in downtown Charleston during a Bible study meeting. Charleston Police Chief Gregory Mullen said Roof was “cooperative” when police in Shelby, N.C., acting on a tip, took him into custody 245 miles northwest of Charleston. Roof had been identified as the lone gunman within hours of the bloody attack on the Emanuel AME church around 9 p.m. Wednesday. Asked if authorities believe Roof had acted alone, Mullen said “we don’t have any reason to believe anyone else was involved.” The cold-blooded killer walked into the church and sat with the Bible group for about an hour before pulling out a semi-automatic handgun and firing, reloading, and firing again. Among the dead — three men and six women — was the pastor of the church, 41-year-old Clementa Pinckney, who was also a South Carolina state senator. June 18, 2015

Headline: This Year Is Headed for the Hottest on Record, by a Long Shot
Drought-stricken California is not the only place draining underground aquifers in the hunt for fresh water. It’s happening across the world, according to two new studies by U.S. researchers released Tuesday. Twenty-one of the world’s 37 largest aquifers — in locations from India and China to the United States and France — have passed their sustainability tipping points, meaning more water is being removed than replaced from these vital underground reservoirs. Thirteen of 37 aquifers fell at rates that put them into the most troubled category. “The situation is quite critical,” said Jay Famiglietti, senior water scientist at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory and the studies’ principal investigator. And it’s difficult to see it getting better soon. These groundwater reserves take thousands of years to accumulate and only slowly recharge with water from snowmelt and rains. Now, as drilling for water has taken off across the globe, the hidden water reservoirs are being stressed. Underground aquifers supply 35 percent of the water used by humans worldwide. Demand is even greater in times of drought. Rain-starved California is currently tapping aquifers for 60 percent of its water use, up from the usual 40 percent. June 17, 2015

Headline: Indonesian volcano Mount Sinabung erupts: Over 10,000 evacuated
More than 10,000 villagers have fled a rumbling volcano in western Indonesia this month, most in recent days after a series of violent eruptions, an official said on Tuesday. Authorities raised the alert status of Mount Sinabung, on Sumatra island, to the highest level at the start of June after detecting a sharp increase in activity. The volcano, which came back to life two years ago after a period of inactivity, erupted violently at the weekend, spewing hot ash and rocks high into the air. Sinabung – which killed 16 people in a fierce eruption last year – was continuing to belch out a thick plume of smoke high into the sky on Tuesday, covering homes far away with a coating of ash. About 7500 residents have been evacuated from their villages following the weekend eruptions, disaster agency official Tri Budiarto told AFP. June 16, 2015

Now that you have watched my video above and saw the information about the rapture of the Church I want to bring this video on the rapture to your attention because there are some major problems with the doctrine in the video below. Watch the video first and then read what we see as problems.
I listened to John Shorey’s description of the Book of Revelation again. Now I remember what it was that he said that was not correct.
No where does it say that there must be a one-world government for the Anti-Christ to take over.
No where does it say that the Temple has to be built for the Anti-Christ to take over.
No where does it say that the 10 Kingdoms have to be in place for the Anti-Christ to take over.
He goes on and on about the head wound of the Anti-Christ. That does not have to happen until later in his reign.
No where does it say that the Anti-Christ will have power over the Christians immediately. the Anti-Christ comes in peace (Rev. 6) and he does not go after everyone until the midpoint of the tribulation (Rev. 12). The Book fo Daniel also proves this: ( 9:27 He will confirm a covenant with many for one ‘seven. In the middle of the ‘seven’ he will put an end to sacrifice and offering. And at the temple he will set up an abomination that causes desolation, until the end that is decreed is poured out on him.”)
The events above will happen, but he is saying all of the events have to happen either before the Anti-Christ comes out, or at the exact time the Anti-Christ comes out.
If you read in Revelation, you see these events happen over the 7 years. In fact, the Anti-Christ does not go after the Jews & Christians until Revelation 12. That means that there will be 3.5 years of strife on the earth (earthquakes, disaster, etc.,) but no persecution from the Anti-Christ. The trouble that is coming is all focused the unbelieving, the quasi-Christians who were left behind and the Jews. It is God’s heart to reach the lost Jews and this is the last opportunity for them to get saved.
I see it like this… We Christians who do faithfully love and follow God cannot be here when the Anti-Christ takes over.
Jesus knows that the anti-Christ will be so smart and convincing, that if we are here on the earth during the tribulation, we would all be deceived and we would lose our salvation. (Mark 13:22 for false Christs and false prophets will arise, and will show signs and wonders, in order to lead astray, if possible, the elect.)
Also… Besides being deceived, we would be forced to take the mark of the beast and we would lose our salvation. Why would God make all the Christians damned? Is this what God wants for His chosen people? Would He want us to go through this? That would not be fair. God has to rescue the true believers from that deceit. (Revelation 13:16 – It also forced all people, great and small, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hands or on their foreheads,)
God’s wrath is going to fall upon the unsaved, or as the Book of Revelation states, the “inhabitants of the earth”. If you look in the Book of Revelation, you will see this term is used 6 times. Remember, Christians are not citizens of earth, we are citizens of Heaven.
