   I just heard now on the news about this invasion of Russia. It really surprised me…

   Here’s what I think it happened… There’s 2 possibilites, either Georgia refused a military access by Russia or it was some problems intentionally caused by Russia spies or agents as a pretext for the invasion. Now there’s only Armenia and Azerbeijan but it is likely that the same will happen to both unless they accept.

   This recent invasion of Georgia can only mean 2 things, either it will be used for Iran’s defense or Iran’s attack the latter being highly impossible. I really doubt Russia would attack Iran, they’ve been friends with each other for years. They still have Armenia and Azerbeijan on the way unless nothing unfolds on these countries

   G-d gave the entire world to the Children of Israel in perpetuity. The Time has come for us, the Chosen People of G-d, to claim our Rightful Inheritance as Rulers of the World.

   Chaim- – Rev 2:9 and 3:9 John 8:44 Heb 8:8 says that you are a liar. The Zionist nation is not Israel and Israel is not your Zionist nation. Back from under the rock from whence thou came war perpetuator! Truth is rising and will expose you and your lies!
