Israel’s Participation in Gulf Security Force opens its 5th Front against Iran……...
August 13, 2019
Tehran is treating the planned Israeli role in the US-led Gulf defence force much as Israel would react to the sudden arrival in Beirut of an Iranian submarine fleet or the transfer of an Al-Qods brigade to Bint Jbeil in S. Lebanon – casus belli.
Since seizing power 40 years ago, the Islamic Republic of Iran has strived with all its might to distance the Americans and their allies from its land and maritime borders.
However, US forces are not just staying in Syria, Iraq and the Arabian Gulf emirates, but have redeployed at Saudi bases and are preparing to co-opt Israel to the naval, aerial and intelligence force Washington is setting up to safeguard Gulf shipping.
Tehran therefore sees its most alarming foes rallying at its front and back doors and its most cherished defence strategy blowing away.
This has spurred Iranian officials to issue almost daily warnings.
Their message: “The illegitimate presence by the Zionists in the waters of the Persian Gulf could spark a war.”
This no longer empty rhetoric; Iran may be expected to add Israeli vessels to its potential US, British, Saudi and UAE targets.
Iran’s claim to be the legitimate guardian of Gulf shipping including the Strait of Hormuz has always been the rationale of its national defence posture.
Still, for years, Tehran took no notice of Western claims that Israel’s nuclear-armed Dolphin submarines [pictured above] had established a permanent presence in Gulf waters opposite Iran’s shores as a “second-strike” resource in case of an Iranian attack on the Jewish state.
No such submarines were ever sighted; nor was their presence ever proven, which made it easy for the Iranians to turn a blind eye.
No longer is this possible since the US announced Israel’s participation in the Gulf defence force.
The rules have changed.
This change had its onset in Israel’s first attack in Iraq in the second half of July on an Iranian missile stock and command centre.
Tehran sees Israel’s Gulf role as the next step in the new game: the opening of a fifth front against Iran after Syria, Iraq, Lebanon and the Gaza Strip.
Tick, tick, tick…..
Liberal Activist Group PETA Is Oddly Silent As Muslims Around The World Slaughter Over 10 Million Animals In Celebration Of Eid al-Adha….

PETA silent as Goats, sheep and cows are slaughtered as Muslims mark festival of Eid around the world…..
Muslims around the world are celebrating Eid al-Adha, the feast of sacrifice, the second of two Islamic holidays celebrated worldwide marking the end of the annual pilgrimage or Hajj to the Saudi holy city of Mecca.
But PETA [People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals] is oddly silent.
In typical Islamic style, the celebration of Eid is a gruesome and barbaric ritual where animals are killed in a horrifically painful manner as Muslims laugh and cheer their death.
It truly is an unwatchable event, even if you love to eat meat. But the question is why is PETA suddenly struck, pardon the pun, hoarse?
Here is abjective and overt animal cruelty on a global scale, with the blood running through the streets as after a heavy rain, and the organisation that cannot bear to allow you to wear a fur coat is suddenly silent?
"For it is not possible that the blood of bulls and of goats should take away sins. Wherefore when he cometh into the world, he saith, Sacrifice and offering thou wouldest not, but a body hast thou prepared me: In burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin thou hast had no pleasure." Hebrews 10:4-6 (KJV)
PETA is silent because they don't really care about the suffering of the poor, helpless animals. If they did, then they wouldn't be putting tens of thousands of animals down and then lying about it, would they?
No, PETA is a Far Left and ultra-liberal political organisation created to push an ultra-liberal political agenda. PETA is against Conservatives and Christians, but when it comes to Islam they have no problem because creating Sharia Law in America is all part of the agenda.
Hillsong Writer Reveals He's no Longer a Christian: 'I'm Genuinely Losing my Faith'…..
August 13, 2019
Marty Sampson, [pictured above] a prolific worship music writer known for his work with Hillsong Worship, Hillsong United, Delirious and Young & Free, revealed he is losing his faith and believes Christianity is “just another religion.”
“Time for some real talk,” the Australian writer wrote in a since-deleted post on Instagram. “I’m genuinely losing my faith, and it doesn’t bother me. Like, what bothers me now is nothing. I am so happy now, so at peace with the world. It’s crazy.”
“This is a soapbox moment so here I go … How many preachers fall? Many,” he continued. “No one talks about it. How many miracles happen? Not many”.
“No one talks about it. Why is the Bible full of contradictions? No one talks about it”.
“How can God be love yet send four billion people to a place, all ‘coz they don’t believe? No one talks about it”.
[Well, they don't teach anything from the Bible at Hillsong do they?]
“Christians can be the most judgmental people on the planet—they can also be some of the most beautiful and loving people. But it’s not for me.”
The "All I Need Is You” writer said he’s “not in” anymore and desires “genuine truth."
"Not the ‘I just believe it’ kind of truth," he wrote. "Science keeps piercing the truth of every religion. Lots of things help people change their lives, not just one version of God”.
“Got so much more to say, but for me, I keeping it real. Unfollow if you want, I’ve never been about living my life for others.”
Christianity “just seems to me like another religion at this point,” Sampson said.
“I could go on, but I won’t,” he wrote. “Love and forgive absolutely. Be kind absolutely. Be generous and do good to others absolutely”.
“Some things are good no matter what you believe. Let the rain fall, the sun will come up tomorrow.”
As we have been saying for decades now – it is NOT Christianity being touted at Hillsong assemblies around the world – it is an enormous money-making machine that avoids the taxes the congregants pay, turning the Houstons and others into billionaires.
Now even the leadership are seeing it for what it is….but what a witness to the thousands of young people cramming into their venues to be hypnotised?
Faith Hope & Love – New College Lectures…..”Unchanging Virtues for a Changing World”….
13 August 2019
As part of New College’s 50th Anniversary celebrations, the New College Lectures Trust has invited the Anglican and Catholic Archbishops of Sydney, Glenn Davies and Anthony Fisher, to participate in a landmark lecture series.
This will be the first set of public lectures jointly delivered by Catholic & Anglican Archbishops in Australian history.
The Archbishops will articulate the importance and relevance of faith, hope and love for contemporary Australian society where competing voices and institutions wrestle to define and influence the national conversation.
Rather than our traditional format, both Archbishops will present on each of the three nights, followed by a Q&A with the media and members of the community.
The series will be moderated by distinguished historian and broadcaster, Dr Meredith Lake.
