THE HARBINGER 26: What will Happen in 2012?

THE HARBINGER - 26

By Luke

"Here it is, the Christmas season, and though it is a time of family gathering and festivity everywhere, there is a solemnity that many are feeling… like a calm before a huge storm. Something is about to happen that will shake our world and test our faith. I believe that what’s coming will either result in a ‘falling away’ or a ‘getting closer’ to God in the next few months."

Jim Bakker "It's finally here – 2012."

Here it is, the Christmas season, and though it is a time of family gathering and festivity everywhere, there is a solemnity that many are feeling… like a calm before a huge storm. Something is about to happen that will shake our world and test our faith. I believe that what’s coming will either result in a ‘falling away’ or a ‘getting closer’ to God in the next few months.

2012 is a year unparalleled in the amount of speculation about some soon-coming calamity. Books have been written, movies made and a great deal of talk shows produced in efforts to get a glimpse into the projected events of 2012. Will the world end? Will some cataclysmic event destroy our planet? Will millions perish of some world-wide pandemic? Will volcanoes, earthquakes and other natural disasters rearrange our world‘s landscape?

What can we know for sure about this highly anticipated apocalyptic year?

Some people go to psychics, some go to the scientific community, some to the writings of ancient civilizations to determine what will happen to our world in 2012. As for me, I go to the Word of God, the Bible – that ancient text authored by God himself through his holy people. Then I go to the Lord in prayer and listen for His voice. That‘s the voice we can trust and the Bible the final authority. The Lord said ―my sheep hear my voice,‖ and I know that to be true.

As a watchman of the Lord, he has given me several specific words for 2012. The first and most outstanding word is “CONFUSION.” 2012 will be a year of confusion beyond anything we have ever experienced before in our nation and in our world, not just confusion, but mass confusion.

Yet, the Bible tells us in 1 Corinthians 14:33 that ―God is not the author of confusion…‖ The Church, that Body of Believers that are born again and listening to His voice, should NOT be confused! If God is not the author of confusion, that means it‘s coming from satan. The spirit of the anti-christ is disorder.

It‘s almost ironic that 12 is the Biblical number for perfect order, just exactly the opposite of confusion. God needs His Church to be in full force and in divine order so that we can be winning souls in the midst of a confused world. The Church will be the new „ark‟ in the confusing days ahead. This could be the last full year we have to get our house in order and to get prepared for what‘s coming!

In 2012, confusion is going to manifest in uncertainties, misunderstandings, good being spoken of as evil, disorder and turmoil of every kind. If ever there was a time to ―know what we know,‖ it‘s now. It‘s time to get in the Word, because deception is coming! The Word of God is truth and it leaves no room for bewilderment or perplexity. It will dispel any darkness with its Light!

The Lord told me that first, there would be a great earthquake in Japan, and then total collapse of the world‘s economy. I can‘t tell you the day, I can‘t tell you the month or the week, but I can tell you that an economic collapse is imminent.

Get your house ready and get your Church ready to be that ark of safety as the confusion swirls all around. Be fully persuaded in your heart and in your mind that you will be steadfast and sure because the Word of God lives within you, and you know His voice. This is going to be a year of soul winning because those who know God‟s voice will have wisdom to guide them and love to sustain them. They will not be confused – but instead, they will be steadfast and sure. Jesus is coming soon and we are looking for Him! God loves YOU, He really does!

What does 2012 really hold for the world? http://www.wnd.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=381653 Dec 27, 2011 It's finally here – 2012.

What is the spiritual significance of this year that so many ancient cultures dreaded?

Maybe now is the right moment to examine all the theories and some of the shocking facts.

With all the hype about the ancient Mayan calendar suggesting the demise of human civilization taking place in 2012, one American author wants everyone to know that other calendars predict the same outcome, and he claims a demonic plot bringing about the end date could be hiding in plain sight inside the U.S. Capitol and your wallet right now.

Tom Horn, a Bible-believing Christian and author of "Apollyon Rising 2012," says he never actually had an interest in the Mayan calendar, which comes to a cyclical end on Dec. 21, 2012. But then he became aware of numerous unrelated calendars and prophecies spanning many centuries, all predicting the end of the current human age at next year's winter solstice.

"I started finding that it wasn't just the Maya," Horn told WND, noting prognostications from Jewish mystics, as well as the ancient Chinese, Hindus, Cherokee Indians, and even artwork among famous American symbols that all point to the same time frame.

Despite not having telescopes, the Mayan people of Central America were extremely accurate observers of celestial movements, with the zenith of their civilization occurring between A.D. 250 and 900.

"The Maya understood this procession of the equinox, basically not to end, but to roll over, to start over" in December 2012, Horn explained.

He says their prophets coupled that date "with prophecies of unrest on Earth after which a new form of man appears on Earth, plus the return of their dragon god, a flying serpent who has the power of air."

"The Aztec saw the same thing, a flying serpent, Quetzalcoatl," Horn said, adding, "their calendar ends in 2012."

He says the Kali Yuga calendar of the Hindus forecasts global changes around 2012, and China's "Book of Changes," also known as the "IChing," predicts the end for the same year.

A timeline graph created in 1973 based on China's I-Ching, shows the line plunging entirely off the graph precisely on Dec. 21, 2012.

Horn says 38 years ago, when scientists Terrence and Dennis McKenna created a stock-market-like linear graph based on the "IChing," the timeline abruptly plunged off the graph into infinity on precisely Dec. 21, 2012.

Coincidence?

"This finding is all the more astonishing given that McKenna's research was published in 1973 independent of any knowledge of the ending date in the Mayan calendar," Horn noted.

Meanwhile, the Zohar, a collection of books in the mystical Jewish Kabbalah that first debuted in Spain in the 13th century, talks about the coming of the Messiah at the same general time the other calendars forecast the end.

It predicts in late 2012, "All the kings of the world will assemble in the great city of Rome, and the Holy One will shower on them fire and hail and meteoric stones until they are all destroyed, with the exception of those who will not yet have arrived there. These will commence anew to make other wars. From that time the Mashiach (Messiah) will begin to declare himself, and round him there will be gathered many nations and many hosts from the uttermost ends of the Earth."

Horn says, "Given the rejection of Jesus by orthodox Jews as Messiah, this coming could herald the coming of Antichrist in 2012."

'2012: What‟s in Store...‟ http://rt.com/news/world-government-conspiracy-therory-657/ Dec 26, 2011 The Private Global Power Elite embedded in major governments is dead set on imposing World Government on us sooner rather than later. Let‘s look at 12 mega-processes – veritable ―Triggers‖ – that we infer they are using to achieve their goals.

All roads lead to World Government. This should come as no surprise. London‘s Financial Times openly articulated this view in an article by their chief foreign affairs commentator, Gideon Rachman, published on 8 December 2009, whose title said it all: ―And Now for a World Government.” These goals are echoed by the Trilateral Commission, CFR and Bilderberg insiders – even by the Vatican.

Macro-managing planet Earth is no easy matter. It requires strategic and tactical planning by a vast thinktank network allied to major elite universities whereby armies of academics, operators, lobbyists, media players and government officers interface, all abundantly financed by the global corporate and banking superstructure.

They do this holistically, knowing that they operate on different stages moving at very different speeds: Financial Triggers move at lightning speed thanks to electronic information technology that can make or break markets, currencies and entire countries in just hours or days;  Economic Triggers move slower: manufacturing cars, aircraft, food, clothes, building plants and houses takes months;  Political Triggers tied to the ―democratic system‖ put politicians in power for several years;  Cultural Triggers require entire generations to implement; this is where PsyWar has reached unprecedented ―heights‖. 

Risk-managing this whole process takes into account the many pitfalls and surprises in store. So each plan in every field counts, with “Plan B‟s” – even Plans “C” and “D” – which can be implemented if needed.

Twelve Triggers for World Government Today, the Global Power Elite are wrapping up globalization and ushering in World Government. Paraphrasing the tightrope walker in German philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche‘s ―Thus Spake Zarathustra,‖ this implies ―….a dangerous crossing, a dangerous wayfaring, a dangerous looking-back, a dangerous trembling and halting…"

These 12 Triggers are interlinked and interlocked in a highly complex, holistic matrix, very flexible in its tactics but rigidly unbending in its strategic objectives. When read as a whole, the picture that unfolds shows that whole being far more than the sum of its parts.

1) Financial Meltdown. Since 2008, the Global Financial System continues on life-support. Ben Bernanke, Timothy Geithner and the US economic hit team – Robert Rubin, Larry Summers and Goldman Sachs, CitiGroup, JPMorganChase mega-bankers working with the Bank of England and the European Central Bank – have not and will not take any measures to help the populace and ailing economies. They just funnel trillions to the banking elite, imposing the media myth that certain banks are ―too big to fail‖ (Orwellian Newspeak for ―too damn powerful to fail‖). Why? Because it‟s not governments overseeing, supervising and controlling Goldman Sachs, CitiCorp, HSBC, Deutsche Bank, JPMorganChase, but exactly the other way around…

2) Economic Crises. Today, ―Destructive Extreme Capitalism‖ is collapsing national and regional economies, reformatting them into international slave-labour Gulag-like entities that Joseph Stalin would envy. Our woes lie not with the world‘s real economy (mostly intact), but with the fake world of finance, banks, and speculation; 3) Social Upheavals. Meltdowns in Greece, Ireland, Portugal, Iceland and – soon to come – Italy, Spain and others, trigger violent social uprisings, even in the US and UK; 4) Pandemics. Get ready for more ―flu surprises‖ leading to mandatory vaccinations: a discreet opportunity to slip RFID chips into our bodies

and test ―intelligent viruses‖ targeting specific DNA strains. Racially and ethnically selective viruses as part of mass depopulation campaigns?

5) Global Warming. As the global economy sinks into zero growth mode, economic drivers shift from growth expansion to consumption contraction. Will coming ―carbon credits‖ open the path to full societal control?

6) Terrorist “False Flag” Mega-Attacks. The Elite have this wildcard up their sleeve to jump-start new ―crises‖ as short-cuts towards world government. Will new ―attacks‖ dwarfing 9/11 justify further global wars, invasions and genocide? A nuclear weapon over a major city to be blamed on the Elite‘s ―enemies‖?

7) Generalized War in the Middle East. As we speak, naval forces, bombers, entire armies are poised to attack and invade Syria, Iran…

8) Ecological/Environmental “Accidents”. The 1986 Chernobyl nuclear accident sparked the beginning of the end of the former USSR by showing the world and the Soviets themselves that their State could no longer manage their own nuclear facilities. April 2010 saw the BP ―Deepwater Horizon‖ oil rig eco-catastrophe in the Gulf of Mexico; since March 2011, Japan and the world have been grappling with a much larger nuclear accident in the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear complex. Was foul play involved?

9) Assassination of a major political or religious figure to be blamed on an Elite enemy. Mossad, CIA, MI6 are really good at playing this type of dirty trick; 10) Attacks on “Rogue States” – Iraq, Libya… Who‘s next? Iran?

Syria? Venezuela? North Korea?

11) Staged “Religious” Event. The growing need of the masses for meaning in their lives makes them easy victims of a Hollywood-staged, 3D virtual reality hologram show, orchestrating a ―second coming‖. An electronically engineered ―messianic figure‖ acting in sync with Elite global objectives? Who would dare go against God himself?

12) Staged “Alien Contact.” This too may be in the works. For decades, large sectors of world population have been programmed to believe in aliens. Here too, hologram technology could stage a ―space vehicle landing‖ – on the White House lawn, of course – highlighting

the ―need‖ for Mankind to have ―unified representation‖ in the face of extraterrestrials. Further justification for world government?

What do such interlocking ―crises‖ have in common? Global warming, pandemics, ―international terrorism‖, financial collapse, economic depression, even alien contacts? They all serve to show that they cannot be addressed by any single nation state, thus ―justifying‖ the need for World Government.

2012: We must stay especially alert, understanding things the way they really are and not the way the global TV Masters want us to believe they are.

2012 could prove even wilder ride than 2011 http://www.reuters.com/article/2011/12/15/uk-world-riskidUSLNE7BE02520111215

By Peter Apps, Reuters, Dec 15 2011

LONDON (Reuters)—The ancient Mayans attached special significance to 2012, possibly the end of time. That has spawned a rush of apocalyptic literature for the holiday season.

But you don‘t have to believe the world is about to end to realize that next year contains perhaps the widest range of political risks to the global economy in recent history.

With elections and leadership changes in the most powerful countries, Europe in crisis, ferment in the Middle East and worsening economic hardship driving unrest and discontent everywhere, 2012 could be just as volatile as 2011 if not worse.

The current year may yet carry a sting in its tail, with worries over the euro and jitters over a possible Israeli strike on Iran likely to keep financial markets and policymakers on tenterhooks all the way to the New Year.

More than three years after the collapse of Lehman Brothers prompted the worst financial crash since the Great Depression, economic turmoil looks to be driving political upheaval in what could become a particularly disruptive feedback loop.

Economic stresses—from rising food prices to worsening economic hardship in the developed world—were at the heart of many of 2011‘s political stories. As they intensify, political volatility, gridlock, confrontation and conflict—whether domestic or international—look set to worsen. ―It‘s going to get worse before it gets better,‖ said Jonathan Wood, global issues analyst at London-based risk consultancy Control Risks. ―If you look at what‘s been driving events this year, none of the factors has gone away and many of the economic drivers are still growing.‖ Presidential elections in the United States, France and Russia and the dual transition of power at the top of China‘s Communist Party will add to the uncertainty. They may make it harder for political leaders to find compromises or push through tough policy choices.

That, many analysts warn, brings with it a mounting risk of political gridlock coming just as the world needs leadership most. The failure of the U.S. Congressional ―super committee‖ to agree on how to reduce the budget deficit may be a sign of things to come domestically in many countries.

President Barack Obama faces a tough re-election bid, whomever the Republicans choose to challenge him, because of a sluggish economy, 8.6 percent unemployment and a squeeze on the middle classes due to fallen home and stock prices.

Top of the list of 2012 risks for many analysts is the unresolved sovereign debt crisis in the euro zone.

If the 17-nation European single currency is to survive in its current form, its members will have to confront harsh economic adjustments and seismic political reform. Last week‘s Brussels summit, the 16th since the start of the two-year-old crisis, was billed by some as the last chance to save the euro.

While euro zone leaders and some non-euro states agreed to forge a closer fiscal union with stricter budget discipline, the outcome fell short of guaranteeing the euro‘s ultimate survival.

At worst, 2012 could still see a disorderly breakup bringing with it a chain of defaults, bank runs and civil unrest, not to mention a savage global economic shock worse than that of 2008.

Ultimately, however, many believe the euro will endure—although not without colossal strains as it tries to reconcile very different economies such as Germany and Greece. ―The greatest single risk is obviously the euro zone but it might also be the risk that is sorted out the quickest,‖ says Alastair Newton, a former British government official who is chief political analyst at Japanese bank Nomura. ―But even if that happens then you‘re still going to have very low growth and a rise in social unrest in the southern euro zone in particular and across Europe in general. Even in the best case scenario, 2012 looks pretty rough.‖ For others, the Middle East remains the most important area to watch for potential disruption to the global economy.

Almost a year after the beginning of the ―Arab Spring‖ democracy movement, the region remains in political flux with untested Islamist parties winning power across north Africa and Syria‘s uprising slowly turning towards outright civil war.

After the fall of several veteran Western-backed Arab rulers, the withdrawal of U.S. forces from Iraq is seen as the latest sign of the diminishing influence of Western powers in a region they dominated for some 200 years.

In the resulting vacuum, regional powers such as Turkey, Saudi Arabia and an isolated and perhaps more erratic Iran appear in increasingly open confrontation.

Western intelligence estimates that Iran is moving closer to a viable nuclear weapon have a shorter timeline, and some analysts say 2012 could be the year when Tehran‘s enemies decide to go beyond covert sabotage with a military strike that could spark retaliation against oil supplies in the Gulf.

―The bigger wild card out there is an Israeli attack on Iran‘s nuclear facilities and elements of regime control,‖ says Thomas Barnett, chief strategist of political risk consultancy Wikistrat, saying neither the Israeli nor the Iranian leadership looks inclined to back down. ―The setting here is scary… something has got to give in this strategic equation.‖ Even if the world avoids a devastating shock such as a Middle East war or a European breakdown, many analysts fear the business of politics and policy-making could become increasingly difficult around the world.

With economic growth slowing and unemployment creeping up, most analysts believe the risks of social unrest will continue to rise across much of the developed and developing world. ―We have all the problems you‘d expect from economic hardship. At some stage we will have rising food prices which are always destabilizing and we have a question over whether China will overheat,‖ says Elizabeth Stephens, head of credit and political risk at London insurance brokers Jardine Lloyd Thompson. ―Even a fall of one or two percentage points of GDP (in China) could be enough to really question social stability if they can‘t keep job creation going… We (also) have probable ongoing unrest in Europe and the ongoing transition in the Middle East and North Africa could be quite unstable.‖ In the dying days of the year, other long held assumptions of stability have be thrown into question—not least by the rising tide of protest against Russia‘s Vladimir Putin. The one certainty for 2012, many believe, is more of the unexpected.

“2011 was a nightmarish year to be a policy maker or an investment portfolio manager but it was a great one to be a political analyst,” says Newton. “I‟d certainly expect the same for next year.”

Unrelenting Global Economic Crisis: A Doomsday View of 2012 http://www.globalresearch.ca/index.php?context=va&aid=28349 Dec 25, 2011 Introduction The economic, political and social outlook for 2012 is profoundly negative. The almost universal consensus, even among mainstream orthodox economists is pessimistic regarding the world economy.

Although, even here, their predictions understate the scope and depth of the crises, there are powerful reasons to believe that beginning in 2012, we are heading toward a steeper decline than what was experienced during the Great Recession of 2008 – 2009. With fewer resources, greater debt and increasing popular resistance to shouldering the burden of saving the capitalist system, the governments cannot bail out the system.

Many of the major institutions and economic relations which were cause and consequence of world and regional capitalist expansion over the past three decades are in the process of disintegration and disarray. The previous economic engines of global expansion, the US and the European Union, have exhausted their potentialities and are in open decline. The new centers of growth, China, India, Brazil, Russia, which for a ‗short decade‘ provided a new impetus for world growth have run their course and are de-accelerating rapidly and will continue to do so throughout the new year.

The Collapse of the European Union Specifically, the crises wracked European Union will break up and the de facto multi-tiered structure will turn into a series of bilateral/multilateral trade and investment agreements. Germany , France , the Low and Nordic countries will attempt to weather the downturn. England namely the City of London, in splendid isolation, will sink into negative growth, its financiers scrambling to find new speculative opportunities among the Gulf petrol-states and other ‗niches‘. Eastern and Central

Europe, particularly Poland and the Czech Republic , will deepen their ties to Germany but will suffer the consequences of the general decline of world markets. Southern Europe ( Greece , Spain , Portugal and Italy ) will enter into a deep depression as the massive debt payments fueled by savage assaults on wages and social benefits will severely reduce consumer demand.

Depression level unemployment and under-employment running to one-third of the labor force will detonate year-long social conflicts, intensifying into popular uprisings. Eventually a break-up of the European Union is almost inevitable. The euro as a currency of choice will be replaced by or return to national issues accompanied by devaluations and protectionism. Nationalism will be the order of the day. Banks in Germany , France and Switzerland will suffer huge losses on their loans to the South. Major bailouts will become necessary, polarizing German and French societies, between the taxpaying majorities and the bankers. Trade union militancy and rightwing pseudo ‗populism‘ (neo-fascism) will intensify the class and national struggles A depressed, fragmented and polarized Europe will be less likely to join in any Zionist inspired US-Israeli military adventure against Iran (or even Syria ). Crises ridden Europe will oppose Washington ‘s confrontationalist approach to Russia and China .

The US : The Recession Returns with a Vengeance The US economy will suffer the consequences of its ballooning fiscal deficit and will not be able to spend its way out of the world recession of 2012. Nor can it count on ‗exporting‘ its way out of negative growth by turning to previously dynamic Asia, as China, India and the rest of Asia are losing economic steam. China will grow far below its 9% moving average. India will decline from 8% to 5% or lower. Moreover, the Obama regime‘s military policy of ‗encirclement‘, its economic policy of exclusion and protectionism will preclude any new stimulus from China .

Militarism Exacerbates the Economic Downturn The US and England will be the biggest losers from the Iraqi post war economic reconstruction. Of $186 billion dollars in infrastructure projects, US and UK corporations will gain less than 5% (Financial Times, 12/16/11, p 1 and 3). A similar outcome is likely in Libya and

elsewhere. US imperial militarism destroys an adversary, plunging into debt to do so, and non-belligerents reap the lucrative post-war economic reconstruction contracts.

The US economy will fall into recession in 2012 and the ―jobless recovery of 2011‖ will be replaced by a steep increase of unemployment in 2012. In fact, the entire labor force will shrink as people losing their unemployment benefits will fail to register.

Labor exploitation (―productivity‖) will intensify as capitalists force workers to produce more, for less pay, thus widening the income gap between wages and profits.

The economic downturn and growth of unemployment will be accompanied by savage cuts in social programs to subsidize financially troubled banks and industries. The debates among the parties will be over how large the cuts to workers and retirees will be to secure the ‗confidence‘ of the bondholders. Faced with equally limited political choices, the electorate will react by voting out incumbents, abstaining and via spontaneous and organized mass movements, such as the ―occupy Wall Street‖ protest. Dissatisfaction, hostility and frustration will pervade the culture. Democratic Party demagogues will scapegoat China ; the Republican Party demagogues will blame the immigrants.

Both will fulminate against ―the Islamo-fascists‖ and especially against Iran .

New Wars in the Midst of Crises: Zionists Pull the Trigger The ‗52 Presidents of the Major American Jewish Organizations‘ and their ―Israel First‖ followers in the US Congress, State Department, Treasury and the Pentagon will push for war with Iran . If they are successful it will result in a regional conflagration and world depression. Given the extremist Israeli regime‘s success in securing blind obedience to its war policies from the US Congress and White House, any doubts about the real possibility of a major catastrophic outcome can be set aside.

China: Compensatory Mechanisms in 2012 China will face the global recession of 2012 with several possibilities of ameliorating its impact. Beijing can shift toward producing goods and services for the 700 million domestic consumers currently out of the economic loop. By increasing wages, social services and

environmental safety, China can compensate for the loss of overseas markets. China ‘s economic growth, which is largely dependent on real estate speculation, will be adversely affected when the bubble is burst.

A sharp downturn will result, leading to job losses, municipal bankruptcies and increased social and class conflicts. This can result in either greater repression or gradual democratization. The outcome will profoundly affect China ‘s market - state relations. The economic crisis will likely strengthen state control over the market.

Russia Faces the Crises Russia ‘s election of President Putin will lead to less collaboration in backing US promoted uprisings and sanctions against Russian allies and trading partners. Putin will turn toward greater ties with China and will benefit from the break-up of the EU and the weakening of NATO. The western media backed opposition will use its financial clout to erode Putin‘s image and encourage investment boycotts though they will lose the Presidential elections by a big margin. The world recession will weaken the Russian economy and will force it to choose between greater public ownership or greater dependency on state funds to bail out prominent oligarchs.

The Transition 2011 – 2012: From Regional Stagnation and Recession to World Crises The year 2011 laid the groundwork for the breakdown of the European Union. The crises began with the demise of the Euro, stagnation in the US and the outbreak of mass protests against the obscene inequalities on a world scale. The events of 2011 were a dress rehearsal for a new year of full scale trade wars between major powers, sharpening interimperialist struggles and the likelihood of popular rebellions turning into revolutions. Moreover, the escalation of Zionist orchestrated war fever against Iran in 2011 promises the biggest regional war since the USIndo-Chinese conflict. The electoral campaigns and outcomes of Presidential elections in the US , Russia and France will deepen the global conflicts and economic crises.

During 2011 the Obama regime announced a policy of military confrontation with Russia and China and policies designed to undermine and degrade China ‘s rise as a world economic power. In the face of a deepening economic recession and with the decline of overseas markets, especially in Europe , a major trade war will unfold.

Washington will aggressively pursue policies limiting Chinese exports and investments. The White House will escalate its efforts to disrupt China ‘s trade and investments in Asia, Africa and elsewhere. We can expect greater US efforts to exploit China ‘s internal ethnic and popular conflicts and to increase its military presence off China ‘s coastline. A major provocation or fabricated incident in this context is not to be excluded. The result in 2012 could lead to rabid chauvinist calls for a costly new ‗Cold War‘. Obama has provided the framework and justification for a large-scale, long-term confrontation with China . This will be seen as a desperate effort to prop up US influence and strategic positions in Asia . The US military ―quadrangle of power‖ – US-JapanAustralia-South Korea – with satellite support from the Philippines , will pit China ‘s market ties against Washington ‘s military build-up.

Europe: Deeper Austerity and Intensified Class Struggle The austerity programs imposed in Europe, from England to Latvia to southern Europe will really take hold in 2012. Massive public sector firings and reduced private sector salaries and job opportunities will lead to a year of permanent class warfare and regime challenges. The ‗austerity policies‘ in the South, will be accompanied by debt defaults resulting in bank failures in France and Germany . England ‘s financial ruling class, isolated from Europe, but dominant in England , will insist that the Conservatives ‗repress‘ labor and popular unrest. A new tough neo-Thatcherite style of autocratic rule will emerge; the Labor-trade union opposition will issue empty protests and tighten the leash on the rebellious populace. In a word, the regressive socio-economic policies put in place in 2011 have set the stage for new police-state regimes and more acute and possibly bloody confrontations with workers and unemployed youth with no future.

The Coming Wars that Ends America “As We Know It” Within the US , Obama has laid the groundwork for a new and bigger war in the Middle East by relocating troops from Iraq and Afghanistan and concentrating them against Iran . To undermine Iran , Washington is expanding clandestine military and civilian operations against Iranian allies in Syria , Pakistan , Venezuela and China . The key to the US and Israeli bellicose strategy toward Iran is a series of wars in neighboring states, world- wide economic sanctions , cyber-attacks aimed at disabling vital industries and clandestine terrorist assassinations of scientists and military officials. The entire push, planning and execution of the US policies leading up to war with Iran

can be empirically and without a doubt attributed to the Zionist power configuration occupying strategic positions in the US Administration, mass media and ‗civil society‘.

A systematic analysis of American policymakers designing and implementing economic sanctions policy in Congress finds prominent roles for such mega-Zionists (Israel-Firsters) as Ileana Ros-Lehtinen and Howard Berman; in the White House, Dennis Ross in the White House, Jeffrey Feltman in the State Department, and Stuart Levy, and his replacement David Cohen, in the Treasury. The White House is totally beholden to Zionist fund raisers and takes its cue from the ‗52 Presidents of the Major American Jewish Organization. The IsraeliZionist strategy is to encircle Iran , weaken it economically and attack its military. The Iraq invasion was the US ‘s first war for Israel ; the Libyan war the second; the current proxy war against Syria is the third.

These wars have destroyed Israel ‘s adversaries or are in the process of doing so.

During 2011, economic sanctions, which were designed to create domestic discontent in Iran , were the principle weapon of choice. The global sanctions campaign engaged the entire energies of the major Jewish-Zionist lobbies. They have faced no opposition from the mass media, Congress or the White Office. The Zionist Power Configuration (ZPC) has been virtually exempt from criticism by any of the progressive, leftist and socialist journals, movements or grouplets – with a few notable exceptions. The past year‘s re-positioning of US troops from Iraq to the borders of Iran , the sanctions and the rising Big Push from Israel ‘s Fifth Column in the US means expanded war in the Middle East . This likely means a ―surprise‖ aerial and maritime missile attack by US forces. This will be based on a concocted pretext of an ―imminent nuclear attack‖ concocted by Israeli Mossad and faithfully transmitted by the ZPC to their lackeys US Congress and White House for consumption and transmission to the world. It will be a destructive, bloody, prolonged war for Israel ; the US will bear the direct military cost by itself and the rest of the world will pay a dear economic price.

The Zionist-promoted US war will convert the recession of early 2012 into a major depression by the end of the year and probably provoke mass upheavals.

Conclusion All indications point to 2012 being a turning point year of unrelenting economic crisis spreading outward from Europe and the US to Asia

and its dependencies in Africa and Latin America . The crisis will be truly global. Inter-imperial confrontations and colonial wars will undermine any efforts to ameliorate this crisis. In response, mass movements will emerge moving over time from protests and rebellions, and hopefully to social revolutions and political power.
