Nostradamus NOW

 

The major prophecy pages of my site, otherwise known as the Almanacs, feature predictions I have arrived at using my own personal systems of divination. In a number of instances, these predictions are supported by prophecies from other sources: Nostradamus, the Bible, Edgar Cayce, and others.

This page will feature prophecies by Nostradamus that may be on the road to being fulfilled this year or sometime during the next several years. This page will also serve as a red alert to world events not being covered by the mainstream press, seen through the prism of prophecy.

Commentaries are by various authors and researchers - as well as articles by me - on the subject of Nostradamus.

Submissions will be considered. Although content is obviously important, articles must be well-written. Also, please keep your essays at medium length -- no "book chapters"!

Send articles to: mmcclellan@adelphia.net. No attachments, please.

Opinions expressed by others on Nostradamus NOW do not necessarily reflect or agree with my own opinions.

 

 

NOSTRADAMUS WARNING: "ONE HUNDRED" MAY BE THE KEYWORD TO A COMET, ASSASSINATION, AND A THIRD
WORLD WAR AT THE TIME OF THE BEIJING OLYMPICS
By Michael McClellan

 

Great Comet Assassination Nuclear war

 

As The Games in Beijing Come To An End We Now Must Ask: Has Quatrain 10.74 Been Fulfilled? ... Has The Long-Dreaded, Mysterious IT Appeared During The Summer Olympics, Joining Games Of Slaughter With Games Of Competition..?

 

July 27, 2008 (10:30 AM EDT), UPDATED August 28, 2008 (3:17 AM EDT): On July 26, 2008, I uncovered a connection that could affect us all in a very short time. I had hoped we would all survive until 2012, perhaps even to 2038, before Planet X and World War III destroy 2/3 of the world's population.

What I discovered is indeed terrible, for it could mean we shall soon be plunged into a war so quickly and unexpectedly that millions of people shall die from moment to moment not even knowing why or that there is a war going on! Meantime, Planet X may well arrive much sooner than is being expected since it is intimately linked with the war to come.

The keyword right now we shall focus on is "one hundred."

I will quote directly from a post I made July 26 on the Prophetic Messenger Forum:

 

Nostradamus, Quatrain 10.74 ~

During the revolution of the great seventh number, it will appear at the time of the Games of Hecatombe,
not far from the age of the great millennium when the dead will come out of their tombs.

 

Technically, we could say the "great seventh number" is passed and undergoing a new revolution simultaneously. 2007 is the first year ending in 7 of the new century and the new millennium.

Also, Nostradamus believed there were seven thousand years that would pass between the time of Adam until the time of Armageddon and the Second Coming of Christ. To him AD 1243-2243 was the seventh millennium. Which is interesting since Johannes Trithemius published a similar view in 1503: that the number of angelic cycles of 354 years and four months (or eight months, depending) from the time of Creation to Armageddon would end during the age of the seventh and last archangel, Michael, in AD 2233 following something like 20 revolutions of each set of seven angel ages. Only ten years difference.

In any event, to Nostradamus, we are now undergoing the revolution of the great seventh millennium as its eighth century (1943-2043) passes the 21st century anno domini mark (2001) and moves beyond 2007.

The word we should now focus on is Hecatombe. Hecatombe is the Greek word for "the slaughter of 100." Every 27 July Spartan warriors in Athens would fight to the death in the early Olympics until a quota of 100 men (sometimes including female warriors) were killed. The bodies of the losers were subjected to decapitation, unless they were decapitated in the contest, and the heads placed on pikes. Later, the Greeks would settle for sacrificing (by slaughtering) 100 oxen before the games.

Note the number 100 well:

 

Nostradamus, Quatrain 2.62 ~

Mabus will soon die, then will come of people and beasts a horrible destruction: Then all too suddenly
the vengeance is revealed, a hundred, hand, thirst, hunger, when the comet shall run.

 

Nuclear destruction of world's cities Great Comet

 

There you have it again ... "a hundred (100)." One hundred in Quatrain 2.62 relates to the Games of the Hecatombe ... "a hundred" ... in Quatrain 10.74.

Two major comets have already passed: Comet McNaught and Comet Holmes. Holmes faded from being a spectacular naked eye comet in October 2007 to just on the border of visibility a few months ago. It is now necessary to use binoculars or a small telescope to see it at magnitude 6.

Comet Holmes may well have been a portent for Planet X and World War III.

So, the comet has passed.. run its course. Even so, another comet could suddenly go into outburst at any time, becoming the third major comet in a row to be seen in only 20 months.

Who is Mabus, you may ask?

The much-hyped trip to the Middle East and especially Germany was no accident, nor was it an inspiration Barack Obama conceived of himself.

Having Obama go to Berlin and stand at the Victory Column before hundreds of thousands, conceivably a few million German citizens, pledging a ramped up US military support for Germany and increasingly closer domestic ties, enhances Germany's prestige in the European Union. Obama would essentially be singling out Germany as the most powerful European nation. By pledging to help Germany defend the frontiers of its own borders as well as the frontiers of the European Union against the threats of aggression recently being made by Russia he appeals to the concept of Euro-Us unity and also demonstrates that there will be someone in the White House with his eye on the ball, who is concerned with real threats and issues to world peace and not creating new debacles in places like Iraq for entirely selfish reasons like the previous administration.

Like John F Kennedy before him, Obama would be saying to Germany and to the new revanchist Russian leadership (whose strings are still being pulled by 'Prime Minister' Vladimir Putin): 'Ich bin ein Berliner.

 

"Ich bin ein Berliner!"

Obama in Germany

Obama: New walls need tearing down - July 25, 2008.

 

In her opening night concert in Cardiff, Wales last night, superstar icon Madonna, alias the whore of Babylon, presented stirring images on huge video screens of Barack Obama along with those of Mahatma Gandhi and the slain Beatle John Lennon. What an homage! Well, now we all know who Madonna's favourite beast is.

 

Madonna: Greetings, Obama, from Cardiff, live tourMadonna mixes Hitler, Mugabe -- and McCain

It should come as no surprise that the queen of pop is again courting controversy.

The first show of Madonna's world tour made a foray into U.S. politics with a none-too-subtle dig at U.S. presidential hopeful John McCain Saturday night.

Images of destruction and global warming flashed on to a screen during a video interlude. Those were followed by pictures of Adolf Hitler, Zimbabwe's authoritarian ruler Robert Mugabe — and McCain.

A later sequence showed slain Beatle John Lennon, climate activist Al Gore, Mahatma Gandhi and finally McCain's democratic rival, Barack Obama.

Once the interlude was over, Madonna threw herself into a rave-inflected rendition of "Like a Prayer." She finished off the concert with her thumping "Give it 2 Me" from her new album "Hard Candy."

http://www.iht.com/articles/ap/2008/08/23/europe/EU-Britain-US-Elections-Madonna.php

 

Yes, people. Barack Obama may be MABUS. Celtic meaning of Mab is "son of." King Arthur's name was Artur mab Uthr. Arthur son of Uthr (of the Pendragon clan).

MAB US is "son of US": he is our American son, and OBAMA has three of the key letters in it: MAB (BAM is MAB backwards). A is Alpha, and O is Omega. His assassination will bring about the beginning of the age we are quickly approaching, World War III and the Aftermath, and the end of the current age.

 

Breaking News: Obama shot

 

If all of this is true, then Obama may soon be assassinated and World War III will begin. Then millions upon millions could very well die.

 

Plot to Kill Obama: Shoot From High Vantage Point -
August 26, 2008.

http://cbs4denver.com/investigates/assisination.plot.obama.2.802827.html

DENVER (CBS4) -- CBS4 has now learned at least four people are under arrest in connection with a possible plot to kill Barack Obama at his Thursday night acceptance speech in Denver. All are being held on either drug or weapons charges.

CBS4 Investigator Brian Maass reported one of the suspects told authorities they were "going to shoot Obama from a high vantage point using a ... rifle … sighted at 750 yards." Law enforcement sources tell Maass that one of the suspects "was directly asked if they had come to Denver to kill Obama. He responded in the affirmative."

Sources told CBS4 police found two high-powered, scoped rifles in the car along with camouflage clothing, walkie-talkies, a bulletproof vest, a spotting scope, licenses in the names of other people and methamphetamine. One of the rifles is listed as stolen from Kansas ... more at
http://cbs4denver.com/investigates/assisination.plot.obama.2.802827.html

Sources say suspect Tharin Gartrell was wearing a ring with a swastika, and is thought to have ties to anti-Jewish and white supremacist organizations.

 

Which brings us to the question: what is the mysterious "it" that appears during the games of the Hecatombe?

Could "it" be ... Planet X ????

Perhaps. Or more likely, "it" is WORLD WAR III !!!!

And, as this article sat upon the Overview and Updates page throughout the Beijing Summer Olympics Games, what may well be the opening salvos of World War III rang out:

 

RUSSIA AT WAR:
Georgia declares state of war with Russia ... Cities across Georgia being bombed ... Russian forces move into the breakaway Georgia region of South Ossetia ... Georgia sends troops into South Ossetia to clamp down on separatists ...

 

Today is August 9, 2008 ... welcome to THE 9th OF AV

Alois Irlmaier ~

I see quite clearly three numbers, two eights and a nine. But I cannot
say what it means and cannot state a time.

 

Russia Declares War On Georgia AT THE SAME MOMENT THE SUMMER OLYMPICS AT BEIJING BEGAN.

As Georgian troops launched a major military offensive Friday to regain control over the breakaway province of South Ossetia, the former Soviet republic's president accused Russia of bombing its territory and violating its airspace. Georgia's president declared, "A full-scale aggression has been launched."

Meantime, Georgia has launched a military offensive to regain control of South Ossetia. Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin warned that Moscow will cause an unspecified retaliatory action.

 

PREDICTION FULFILLED

My prediction, Russia Invades Georgia, appears on page 2008 (Part Three).
Note also that I did not predict Russia would start the war and even said I did not
know for certain why Russia would invade Georgia.

 

Russia is far from finished. The southern flank is now being established. From Afghanistan to Greece,
Russia will occupy the Transcaucasus, Iran, Asia Minor, Serbia and the former Yugoslavia,
Transdniester, and the key northern Arab states of Iraq and Syria.

This could take anywhere from 11 months to 43 months.

But always will its eyes be on its former colonies in the West, such as Ukraine and Lithuania,
and its former Warsaw Pact allies, such as Hungary.

 

The next major conflict may well be against Nato
in the Black Sea.

 

Nostradamus, Quatrain 2.15 ~

A short time before a monarch is slaughtered, Castor and Pollux in the ship, a bearded star, public treasure
emptied on land and sea, Pisa, Asti, Ferrara, Turin (northern and eastern Italy), in forbidden land.

 

Assassination 'in the ship'

 

Castor and Pollux never appear in the consellation Argos. Castor and Pollux, the twins, the two brothers, are the two nuclear giants and former friends: Russia and the United States. Where are Russia's and America's navies TODAY? There is little doubt that both Russia's and America's wealth are being squandered for current and future war efforts.

The forbidden territories in line 4 are all in northern and eastern Italy. In these locations and nearby are Nato air and sea bases. One of the most famous of these is located at Aviano, Italy, on the eastern coast, near the Adriatic Sea. It was used during both the Bosnian and Kosovar conflicts to attack the Serbs. In the event of a Russia-Nato conflict, the bases in Italy would most certainly be activated for duty again.

What other reason might large portions of Italy become forbidden territory?

WAS -- OR IS -- THE RUSSIAN WAR IN GEORGIA THE 'GREAT FLAME, A FIRE,
IN SOUTHERN RUSSIA'
FORESEEN BY THE PROPHET JOSUP TERELYA?

 

The "Vladimir Prophecy"

A second installment of a popular documentary series, Ancient Prophecies, narrated by David McCallum, aired in 1995. One of the segments focused on a Ukrainian man who was imprisoned in Siberia by the Soviet government for being a Catholic. His name was Josup Terelya who now lives in Toronto, Canada. He was purportedly thrown into a cell where the temperature was well below zero by guards expecting him to freeze to death.

He saw a light bulb hanging on the ceiling. He moved his hands near the bulb in a futile attempt to warm them. Suddenly the room glowed with light, he fell back upon his cot, and before him appeared the Virgin Mary. Miraculously, through her intercession, he survived. Dumbfounded guards, expecting to find him dead, found him alive and well and led him out of the cell. It would be another twenty years before he would be given his freedom.

While in the cell, the Virgin Mary showed him visions of the future.

This is the prophecy as best as I can remember it, very loosely paraphrased (I used to have this on videotape, but the tape was ruined several years ago):

"The Soviet Union will cease to be. Russia will be free of communism. But the day will come when it will fall under a dictatorship. The people will rally around one man. 'Vladimir' will be his name."

At this point in the presentation, people are seen holding up placards bearing the image of Vladimir Zhirinovsky. However, the Ukrainian prisoner never mentions Vladimir's last name.

The prophecy continues:

"There will be a great flame, a fire, in southern Russia, and Vladimir will stir up the people of Russia to go to war against Israel."

Could this "great flame" that erupts in southern Russia be the southern Caucasus, the former Soviet republic of Georgia and perhaps Armenia?

He then describes a map he is shown of Russia and all of the former Soviet Union and China.

"Fires will break out everywhere, the whole of Russia will burn, the whole of China in flames."

Apparently a future nuclear war between Russia and China or Russia, China, and the United States. How long after the advent of "Vladimir" is not clear ... however this last scenario of widespread fire in Russia and China is consistent with what happens to Gog and Magog, according to the prophet Ezekiel, when God Himself punishes the armies of both with fire from the sky ... so much fire that 5/6 of Gog's army is utterly incinerated.

Prime Minister Vladimir Putin. Leader of the Duma, Vladimir Zhirinovsky. Which shall it be? Does it even matter?

"Vladimir will stir up the people of Russia to go to war against Israel."

Third World War. Nuclear holocaust. Watch these men -- both of them.

 

Meantime, Cuban Missile Crisis II is developing as we speak:

 

 

Russia's foreign ministry threatened to go beyond diplomatic protests in response to the signing of a US-Polish deal to base part of an American missile defence system in Poland, which borders part of Russia. The agreement includes 10 new interceptor missiles for Poland. The latest threat came after a top Russian general said Poland would risk a military strike if it allowed the base. Military sources report Moscow's planned retaliation for America's missile interceptors in Poland and US-Israeli military aid to Georgia may come in the form of Iskandar surface missiles installed in Syria and its Baltic enclave of Kaliningrad. Meantime, despite Nato assurances, many Ukrainians fear they could be next to face the force of a resurgent Russia seemingly bent on avenging the disintegration of the Soviet empire ...

Russian general Anatolij Nogovitsyn threatens to annihilate Poland.
"The USA is engaged in an anti-missile defence for its own government, and not for Poland. And Poland, in deploying (elements of the system) opens itself to a military strike. That is 100 percent. It is written clearly: We will use our nuclear arsenal in instances against governments that have nuclear weapons; against allies of countries with nuclear weapons, if they somehow enable them."
Russian President Dmitry Medvedev blasts Polish-US missile defence deal. The Russian president denounced the Polish-US deal as a threat to Russia. "The deployment of new anti-missile forces has as its aim the Russian Federation," he told a news conference alongside German Chancellor Angela Merkel. "Therefore any fairy tales about deterring other states, fairy tales that with the help of this system, we will deter some sort of rogue states, no longer work."

As if this was not enough, America prepared to attack Iran, Russia's key ally in the Middle East, but backed off. Still, a huge naval armada is in place in the Persian Gulf.

In response to news of the armada nearing Iran, Russia has acted quickly:

In a move that will, undoubtedly, increase the anger of the United States, President Medvedev is meeting with Syrian President Bashar al-Assad where he is reported to have offered the Syrians advanced Russian surface-to-air missiles in exchange for the expansion of Russian troops at Russia’s Syrian bases located at Tartus and Latakia. These reports also state that President Medvedev has ordered an immediate increase of Russian troops and air defences at Iran’s Parchin military base, and which is Iran’s most secretive weapons development center. Diplomatic sources tell UAE newspaper Washington wants the Jewish state to stop negotiations with Damascus held in Turkey due to the reported Syrian agreement to deploy a Russian missile system on its territory.

Cuban Missile Crisis II and US war against Iran could very quickly escalate to unimaginably horrible levels after Obama's death:

 

Alleged portion of Third Secret of Fatima leaked by Pope John XXIII in 1963 ~

A great war will break out. Fire and smoke will fall from heaven, and waters of the oceans will
become vapours, the scum will arise in a confused manner, and everything will sink
down. Millions and millions of people will perish while this is going on and those
who survive will envy the dead. The unexpected will follow in every part of the
world, anxiety, pain and misery in every country.

Miscalculation

Have I seen it? The time is getting ever nearer and the abyss is getting wider without hope. The
good will perish with the bad, the great with the small, the Heads of the Church with their
faithful, and the rulers with their people. There will be death everywhere as a result of
the mistakes of the unfeeling and the partisans of Satan ...

THE GRAVE CONSEQUENCES OF AN IRANIAN EMP STRIKE ON THE USA
Q2.62: "Hands (reaching up), thirst, hunger when the comet shall run ..."

 

If Iran is able to knock out the electric power infrastructure of the USA with an aerial EMP burst, over the weeks that follow life would revert to that of an early 19th Century (early 1800s) barter-based society. All those in hospitals would die first. Then 70 to 90 percent of American citizens would die until the nation's population leveled off to 30 million people:

 

Dr. William Graham, Claremont Institute: “Within a week or two of the attack, people would start dying. People in hospitals would be dying faster than that, because they depend on power to stay alive. But then it would go to water, food, civil authority, emergency services. And we would end up with a country with many, many people not surviving the event.

You have to go back into the 1800s to look at the size of a population that could survive in a nation deprived of mechanized agriculture, transportation, power, water, and communication. I’d have to say that 70 to 90 percent of the population would not be sustainable after this kind of attack.”

http://www.newsmax.com/timmerman/iran_nuclear_plan/2008/07/29/117217.html

 

According to Nostradamus this culling of the human race shall be a horrible and protracted event indeed, not only in America, but worldwide. And then eventually will come cannibalism and the dreaded plague described by the prophet Charles D. Evans in 1893: "The atmosphere became tinged with a leaden hue, which was the precursor of an unparalleled plague whose first symptoms were recognized by a purple spot which appeared on the cheek, or on the back of the hand, and which, invariably, enlarged until it spread over the entire surface of the body, producing certain death. Mothers, on sight of it, cast away their children as though they were poisonous reptiles. This plague, in grown persons, rotted the eyes in their sockets and consumed the tongue as would a powerful acid or an intense heat. Wicked men, suffering under its writhing agonies, cursed God and died, as they stood on their feet, and the birds of prey feasted on their carcasses..."

 

Nostradamus, Quatrain 2.75 ~

The voice of the insolent bird, above the respirator pipe of the [bomb shelter] floor: So high
will the wheat come to rise, that man towards man will become a Man-eater.

 

"In grown persons, it rotted the eyes in their sockets and consumed the tongue as would a powerful acid or an intense heat."

 

Nostradamus, Quatrain 2.46 ~

After great human misery a greater approaches, the great motor of the centuries renewed: Rain,
blood, milk, famine, weapon, and pestilence, in the sky fire seen, dragging long sparks.

 

This, then, is what the revised quatrain under discussion might look like if we substitute
actual events for "it," "the Games of the Hecatombe," and the "dead":

 

The medieval Knights Templar resurrected to fight alongside the armies of the WestKnights Templar fight the Eastern barbarians

 

Nostradamus, Quatrain 10.74 ~

During the revolution of the great seventh number, WORLD WAR 3 will appear at the time of the
Summer Olympic Games, not far from the age of the Great Millennium when the dead Knights
Templar will come out of their tombs to aid the Crusading Armies of The West.

 

It doesn't take much imagination now to see what may be shaping up, does it?

What happens, or fails to happen, during and immediately after the Beijing Olympics could determine if we have four years, one year, or possibly only weeks to a few months remaining to live. I can only say that we have it in our power to change the outcome of future events and to postpone the approaching horror for another cycle of the calendar (28 years) until the year 2036. That power lies within each of us to decide, if we shall walk in darkness or into the light.

 

 

666 World Population Day May Trigger
Opening of Sixth Seal of Revelation
By Michael McClellan

April 17, 2008 (7:09 PM EDT), UPDATED May 21, 2008 (1:35 AM EDT): According to the Drudge Report, based on statistics at International Programs Center at http://www.census.gov/ipc/www/popclockworld.html, the world population will be 6,666,666,666 on May 10, 2008.

I find this quite disturbing when we consider the following quatrain by Nostradamus:

 

Nostradamus, Quatrain 9.83 ~

The Sun twenty degrees in Taurus, so strongly the earth trembles. The great theatre filled up is ruined,
the air, sky, and land obscured and troubled when the infidel calls upon God and the saints.

 

 

This quatrain is dated astrologically as May 10, although there is no year given. Even so, the fact that a significant occult number, 666, associated with great evil and found in the Book of Revelation, shall be achieved by the world population on that day and month is more than a bit disturbing when one considers the following projections for a global earthquake or supervolcanic eruption I have made using the base 7 system.

 

California quake strikes, high rise buildings crumbleMidwestern United States Rocked by Massive Earthquakes (January/February 2008)
The "Great Earthquake" Strikes Los Angeles and California (February/March 2008)
Supervolcano at Yellowstone Erupts (May 2008)

 

The projection of May 2008, by itself, is remarkable only from the perspective of a base 7 patterning of the Point Mugu (1973), Whittier Narrows (1987), Northridge (1994) and Nisqually (2001) earthquakes and the eruption of Mount St Helen's (1980). That there exists a Nostradamus quatrain that further supports a major earthquake occurring on May 10 is possibly only coincidental in this instance since a year is not provided.

However, the fact that May 10 shall be linked to the number 666 during this year, and only during this year, should be cause for considerable alarm.

The seismic troubles Nostradamus describes in Quatrain 9.83 is far beyond that of any normal killer quake. It is powerful enough to not only cause darkness to fill the air, sky, and land, but also to turn the faithless and those of other faiths towards God and the saints.

666, the number of man and also the number of the beast can further be expressed as a possible code for the opening of the sixth seal of Revelation which unleashes the universal earthquake, the moon of blood, the blackened sun, and nameless horrors in the heavens that may be associated with the ultimate arrival of Planet X.

 

Did Nostradamus' Great May 10 Earthquake Strike in China?Young woman holding infant walks from cloud of dust

In Quatrain 9.83 above, Nostradamus foresaw a terrible earthquake, "the great theatre filled up is ruined" and "the earth, sky, and land darkened and troubled" happening on May 10 (no year given) when "the infidel calls upon God and the saints." Is it possible that this may apply to the recent China quake? The earthquake struck on May 12, 2008 at 06:28:01 UTC (2:28: 01 PM EDT), missing Nostradamus' date by only two days.

There is no question that China is a largely atheistic country ("infidel") and we have seen the "darkness" in the air covering the land in the form of dust. Although I applied this quatrain and the date the world population would reach 6,666,666,666 more to the long-awaited West Coast quake and Yellowstone erupting, in a much larger sense, I clearly indicated that May 10 would approximate the date of the opening of the sixth seal of Revelation and the so-called "universal earthquake."

Is the breaking of the Sixth Seal of Revelation taking place slowly?

If we focus away from the failure of the West coast to deliver a major quake or Yellowstone to erupt (so far anyway), May 2008 has indeed been a scary month ... and the month is far from over. The Chaiten Volcano could yet be a precursor to Yellowstone I suppose, and was a major event in and of itself; another massive temblor rattled Tokyo and other parts of Japan; the cyclone in Myanmar has caused unprecedented casualties and destruction; and now a new "Great China Quake" ... hardly a week passes without some new geological or weather-related horror since Chaiten blew its top. And all of this activity has occurred in May.

Chaiten volcano continues producing a thick cloud of smoke and ashes Damage from the cyclone is extensive, but hides the grim reality of the human toll China earthquake: Land of the dead

Are we witnessing events that shall continue to accumulate and worsen over the course of May until the sixth seal has finally been opened?

What about the July 2008 vector for an asteroid impact (or was our near miss in January our close call)? Even if Toutatis or some other space rock doesn't smack into the sea or ocean in that month, I think I'd be concerned about something nearly as bad happening, given what is already occurring in the world in a month that was supposed to be the eruption of the Yellowstone caldera. At the current rate events are taking place, the world may well be in nearly as bad a shape by the end of May as it would have if Yellowstone had erupted ... or even worse by July.

The possibility that we are now experiencing a "long drawn out opening of the sixth seal" is currently in discussion on the Prophetic Messenger Forum at http://mm2001.forumco.com/topic~TOPIC_ID~598~whichpage~5.asp

 

 

EARTHQUAKE IN NORTHERN ITALY:
PARTIAL SINKING OF ENGLAND

By Michael McClellan

Quatrain 9.31
The trembling of the earth at Mortara [NW Italy],
The tin isles of St. George [England] half-sunk,
Peace asleep, the war awakened,
Within the temple at Easter abysses open.

July 25, 2007 (1:42 AM EDT): England is now, according to British news reports, experiencing the worst flooding in its recorded history. Thus my projection for Massive Flooding in Portions of Europe, New Record Levels beginning in April 2007 has been fulfilled (the process of heavy rainfall, storms, and flooding began in Turkey in May 2007 and moved westward across Europe in June, increasing in magnitude until it seemingly reached its peak in England and Wales, but still continues to grow steadily worse in England). Still, as bad as it has been, it was not preceded or accompanied by a massive quake in northwestern Italy. Then again, this could happen later: the flooding of half of England and a major geological disturbance in northern Italy need not occur in the sequence they appear in the above quatrain by Nostradamus. However, if this should happen soon, so too will a major war in the Middle East and yet another massive earthquake, next time in London itself during Easter, which falls on March 23, 2008.

The problem in all of this lies with the base 7 system: Italy is not due for a major earthquake of nearly apocalyptic proportions until November 2008, which is another 16 months away. Even so, the current flooding in England may only be a preview of what is to come. If half of the isle truly sinks, it is likely to be for the same reasons the Midwestern US, Texas, Oklahoma, and Louisiana also will: due to persistant climatological conditions that will cause chronic flooding. If floodwaters are not allowed to recede, additional days and weeks of rainfall, geological recessions caused by substantial earthquake activity, or catastrophic tidal conditions will further plunge the regions deeper into chronic inundation, resulting in a nearly permanent state of total saturation that may take years or even decades to reverse.

In any event, according to Nostradamus' Quatrain 9.31, a massive earthquake will strike Mortara, thirty miles northwest of Milan. It will be accompanied by major flooding in southern Italy. The cities of Florence, Naples, and Venice will be submerged. At nearly the same time a great deluge will sink Wales, Cornwall and the Scilly Islands. Many commentators simply say that "the tin isles of St George" (Scilly Islands) is just a clever way of saying England itself, thus half of England will be submerged by water. Most commentators agree that "the temple" referred to is Westminster Abbey, built upon the site of the ancient Temple of Apollo. The description of huge fissures cracking open at the location indicates that a major quake will also rock the city of London. The Mortara Quake should occur in November 2008. The London Quake would then follow at Easter 2009, which falls on April 12, 2009.

The new war that is awakened in November 2008 and escalated in April 2009 will likely be the long-anticipated conflict in the Middle East between the US and Iran (added to the current fighting in Iraq and Afghanistan) and another between Israel and the Palestinians, Lebanon, and Syria. Both of these will spread throughout the entire region, fusing with the US wars, bringing Egypt, Jordan, and Turkey into the fray as allies of Israel and the United States, triggering "World War III in the Middle East." This in turn brings in Russia and the European Nato members (or else an EU force), leading to horrific naval battles in the Eastern Mediterranean and southern Adriatic that will involve the use of tactical nuclear weapons.

Note that this matches my own base 7 parameters for the nuclear destruction of New York City by terrorists on August 9, 2008 (which is also the 9th of Av next year), triggering "The War of Alus" (WW3 in the ME) beginning in October 2008 and reaching a terrible conclusion in July and August 2009, at which time Iran and its allies declare war on the European Union (July 29, 2009, which is also the 9th of Av that year) and Russia follows suit after an assassination and turmoil breaks out in the Balkans and Hungary (August 8, 2009).

By this time the US will have been forced to withdraw in defeat from Iraq and Saudi Arabia, Iraq will be made a strong ally of Iran, and southern Israel, Gaza, and Lebanon will be laid to waste by Egypt and Israel due to fighting with Palestinians and Hezbollah. Mubarak is assassinated and Egypt is defeated and conquered by Iran and Iraq. Jordan is destroyed by Iranian and Russian nuclear weapons. Many Syrian cities are destroyed by Israeli nuclear missiles. Northern Israel is made uninhabitable by Iraqi chemical and biological weapons supplied by Syria and Iran.

Planet X has slowly been making its presence known since The Asian Tsunami that shocked the world in December 2004. Now, with utter rapidity, its encroaching death-dealing blow is being felt planet-wide. Major earthquakes in South America, volcanic eruptions in Indonesia and Africa, mind-boggling flooding in England, metro-New York, Texas and Oklahoma, India, China, the worst heat wave on mainland Europe and the US western states, the worst winter weather in Australia since records have been kept, the second worst dust storm on the planet Mars in space history ... all have happened in the space of only a week!

The time for lulls in the weather and geological catastrophes appears to be ending. We are there, in that place which Edgar Cayce, Nostradamus, and St John of Patmos warned of long ago. The dreaded opening of the sixth seal of Revelation is soon! At this rate, it can hardly be more than a year away. And then upon the year ensuing (2009) the ancient horror will make its appearance, that which has been called Marduk, Typhon, Nibiru, Wormwood, the winged orb, the Dragon's Tail, the Ball of Redemption, the Day of Wrath, and the great and the small will flee from its face and hide in caves and underground shelters. To no avail! At least 2 out of 3 humans shall perish worldwide. Millions will die moment by moment, hour by hour, as the oceans turn to vapour!

And as the world destroys man, man shall destroy the world. Global war on a scale never before seen and can only be imagined. Mass genocide against civilians committed by the very governments and leaders the people have recklessly placed their faith in. France shall dance a new bloody dance and her sisters, Italy and America, shall join her. The guillotines are ready; they are waiting for the heads they shall shave cleanly from millions of necks. The barber and the coffin-maker will agree not to lie in each others shade! Then, when America is 3/4 inundated by water, reduced to two large clumps of land on east and west and many tiny islands in between, then finally will come the dreaded nuclear exchanges with Russia. The masculine woman who rules the great pond nation shall die in the inferno that will be Washington DC as the anti-missile system for what remains of the East Coast fails to stop the Russian's incessant attacks.

Ground zero: Hillary and aide

President Hillary and aide waiting for the end (September 2010)

EMP knocks out power to what remains of United States east coast not submerged by water, massive nuclear attack follows.
Missile defence of East Coast and US Capital fails; Hillary Clinton dies in nuclear attack on Washington DC.

 

Nostradamus writes about many calamities that shall befall this planet, not only during our time, but for centuries to come. But the longest lasting natural catastrophe of all that will plague Mankind, even 1,700 years from now, until our world and solar system is finally transformed by fire into a new heaven and new earth as promised at the end of the Book of Revelation, shall be the FLOOD:

"I find that before the final universal conflagration the world will see so many floods and such high inundations, that there will scarcely remain any land not covered by water, and this will last for so long that outside of the topography of earth and the races which inhabit it, everything will perish."

Global warming is a reality. Long after Nibiru has returned to the outermost regions of our solar system, sea and ocean levels will continue to rise. Geological catastrophes shall diminish and end (save those God shall briefly allow during 'the age of the seventh angel'), but not the climate and eco-system related horrors caused by melting ice, excessive carbon dioxide and condensation from the greenhouse effect, and the resulting rising waters. If the prophet is correct, in the end there shall be scarcely a spot of land to stand upon.

It is hard to say where our responsibilities end and the destruction that is out of our hands due to Planet X begins. But one thing is certain: the more lax we have been and are being about the environment and global warming, the more ammunition we are providing for this great destroyer from space. Nor need we be sitting ducks for the asteroids and meteors this horror shall dump upon us (even now the Dawn space mission has been launched to dislodge two massive asteroids out of the path of Planet X that otherwise would be deviated in our direction).

In two years time, or if we are fortunate, in five years time (if an important related event should occur in 2009), we shall reap part of what we ourselves have sewn. May we sew better things these next two to five years.

 

 

IS CHIRAC OUT OF ACTION FOR GOOD?
By Michael McClellan

May 11, 2007 (10:28 PM EDT), POSTED August 14, 2007: The elections in France are over. Jacques Chirac bowed out over a month before, Segolene Royal slipped in the polls after the first faceoff, and one of the most unpopular figures in French politics ever was elected, sparking off riots nationwide. The election of Nicolas Sarkozy certainly seems to land a giant fly in the ointment of prophecy.

Despite some rather unconvincing quatrains I presented earlier heralding a potential Royal victory, I still believe Sarkozy's election does not change some very intriguing prophecies by Nostradamus concerning an "important old man" of France who just won't go away, even though he has been "least honoured" among the French presidents.

Technically it never did matter whether Sarkozy or Royal won. Nostradamus more than hints that an "old man" who is "least honoured" among the French will make some sort of comeback during a time of war. I have always suspected that there was a chance that Chirac would either lose an election or choose not to run or else temporarily lose control of France to Iranian/Muslim invaders if he was re-elected. Some sort of hiatus in his leadership, combined with his memory or legacy being dishonoured among his people, has been highly suggested by Nostradamus' prophecies.

I believe that as far as he is concerned, Chirac thinks he is done with politics forever.

However, I doubt Chirac would turn down appeals by his countrymen to resume the presidency or even to be made a monarch, especially if it is out of a sence of duty. Chirac will forever have a strong nationalistic pride in France and an idealistic desire for there to always be a strong European Union. On issues of defending France and Europe against any and all enemies, including terrorists and rogue states, Chirac's voice has been the strongest since the days of Charles de Gaulle. The French may hate his domestic policies, but they have had nothing but respect for his international vision and strong leadership abroad.

It also would not be the first time a leader of France was down for the count and considered out of power for good, only to make a startling comeback. Everyone believed Napoleon was finished when he was exiled to Elba. Nine months later, he returned to France, drove out the Bourbons, and restored his Empire, living to fight one last war. The restoration of his empire lasted only 1/3 of a year, but it was an unimaginable and spectacular triumph applauded by many Frenchmen.

Chirac may return to fight one last war too: the most important and decisive war in modern history, World War III.

If Royal would have been inept at handling the internal problems dividing France at this time, especially along north-south lines, Sarkozy will be a disaster. We already see the rioting all over France in responce to his election and further anger at news that he is on vacation "whilst Paris burns." I have received emails from some French viewers in the past, and many consider Sarkozy to be psychotic. In other words, Nicolas Sarkozy is to France what Vladimir Zhirinovsky would be to Russia. Sarkozy's election may even be a sign that Zhirinovsky will win in Russian elections in March 2008.

I think that after the turmoil Sarkozy's administration will bring to France, including war, the French will be all to happy to have papa Chirac back. Here is a quatrain to really question:

Quatrain 5.100
The incendiary by his own fire trapped,
Fire from the sky at Carcassonne and Comminges:
Foix, Auch, Mazeres, the important old man escaped,
By those of Hesse, of Saxony, and Thuringia
(Germany between 50th and 52nd latitudes).

All the cities and towns in lines 2 and 3 are located in southwestern France well below the 44th parallel. The strikes against them are either nuclear, FAE, or a mixture of both.

Look, this quatrain has never been fulfilled. The Nazis never ever got this far south in France during World War II. No foreign army with modern weapons has ever pulled this off. It has to be about World War III.

So who is the "important old man" who escapes southwestern France with the aid of Germany whilst it is under attack? Sarkozy is not old.

Whoever he is, he is "important" from a French point-of-view or else a Catholic point-of-view. Could he be Pope Benedict who is himself German? Not likely. Too many other quatrains say the pope will die or be killed in southeastern France, in Avignon specifically, during a military attack. The murdered pope is also given the name "Paul the celibate" (not John Paul or Benedict), thus suggesting a pope with the name Paul VII.

Who can this "old man" be who will be so important to France? I cannot think of any other old political figure the Germans would rescue from southern France during a time of war but Jacques Chirac. Here he is again:

Quatrain 4.61
The old man mocked and deprived of his position,
By the foreigner who will suborn him:
The hands of his sons devoured [severed] before their faces,
The brother at Chartres, Orleans, Rouen betrayed.

Chirac has already been deprived of his position by Nicolas Sarkozy and has been (and is being mocked) by the French media. Sarkozy is the foreigner: Sarkozy is not a native-born Frenchmen and his father was Hungarian. In line 3, we have the severing of the hands of French soldiers, a form of Islamic justice. Sarkozy, Chirac's self-appointed heir ("brother") will be betrayed and killed.

According to Les Propheties the former French leader returns to France via a route that would take him through Belgium into the northern part of the country, via the forest of Ardennes. France will be plagued with civil war by this time, and still partly occupied by Muslim troops as well. Paris will already be destroyed by its own people. With a small military base and the aid of a Belgian or British military commander with a hawk nose he will gradually muster more and more French forces to his side as word spreads that Chirac is back. A war of liberation will commence.

Remember, Nostradamus calls this all important leader an "old man" and Chirac certainly qualifies at age 74. By the time global war has reached this point in either 2010, 2011, or 2012, he will be 77, 78, or 79. Bear in mind that Nostradamus does not give his figure "Chiren" a long life once he is made monarch and then emperor. He spends almost all of what remains of his imperial reign "driving the barbarians from the sea" and bringing "peace to Italy," and a short time after he does, he dies. Old European prophecies that say the "great Monarch" will be an old man say he will reign no longer than seven years then will "give up the ghost." Other prophecies that mention a "great Monarch" who is young (about 40) all seem to be dated around the year 2038 to 2041 (which indicates a second great monarch Nostradamus calls Philippe in my opinion).

Something else to consider, if Chirac is not Chiren.

On this website's personal forum, The Prophetic Messenger Service, we have looked at figures such as Henry Harris Lines, Henrik Selin, the actual royal pretenders to the throne of France themselves, and others: all in an effort to find someone whose name matches "Chiren" or "Henry/Henri."

I would point out that Prince Charles is on record for having said that when he becomes king, he will not go by the name of Charles but by the name of GEORGE. In other words, a monarch has the discretion to choose any name he desires as his royal identity.

This is also true of a restored French monarchy. If a man chooses to be crowned as Henry V, he need not have Henry as his actual name. Thus, any man, regardless of what his real first name is, who is given the honour of being a new French monarch, can take the name of Henry if he so desires.

And that could be just about anybody.

 

 

NEW MABUS ALERT: SADDAM'S EXECUTION
COULD BE TRIGGER FOR NUCLEAR WAR!

Quatrain 2.70

The dart from the sky will make its journey,
Death while speaking: a great execution:
The stone in the tree, the proud nation brought down,
Human mist, the purged monster to make expiation.

By Michael W. McClellan

January 4, 2007 (3:35 AM EST), UPDATED January 20, 2007 (5:34 AM EST): I was looking over the recording of the execution of Saddam Hussein and noticed that the trap was sprung when he was in mid-sentence saying a prayer. He literally died while speaking. This caused me to recall another phrase: "a great execution." Then I realised these phrases appeared in a Nostradamus quatrain. The quatrain is above.

I have long thought the dart was a missile of some sort and that the "execution" was of people caught in mid-sentence when the nuclear warhead exploded. Now I am not so sure! What if the "dart" is Comet C/2006 P1 McNaught, now visible in the southern hemisphere and visible earlier this month in the north until about January 13?

That is correct. It wasn't supposed to be a northern comet at all, not attaining naked eye visibility until after re-emerging from the glare of the sun in the southern hemisphere. But it brightened on January 1 and is now a major comet. It brightened two days after Saddam Hussein was executed.

It is unknown whether Comet C/2006 P1 McNaught will still become as bright as magnitude - 8.8 as earlier projected (40x brighter than Venus). It remains a possibility. There hasn't been a comet that bright since Comet Ikeya-Seki appeared in October and November 1965 (some observations place Ikeya-Seki's utmost magnitude at - 10). It is currently brighter than Venus at a staggering magnitude of - 6 and can also be seen during daylight in the northern hemisphere. At this time Comet McNaught qualifies as a "great comet" (one out of eight such comets seen during the last 263 years). That is all it need do to be the Mabus comet.

Southern hemisphere viewers can look in the evening sky just above the horizon 20 to 40 minutes after sunset. It will be to the left of Venus. It is possible if it reaches magnitude -8.8 that the tail will remain visible in the north, shooting straight up vertically from the horizon in the northern hemisphere until about January 25. At that point we may see its tail shooting up from the horizon as a shaft of light! Like a dart of light, like the shaft of an arrow of light!

This is thre latest view of Comet McNaught as seen during the early morning of 19 January, 2007 from Pucon, Calafquen Lake sector, some 900 km (500 miles) south from Santiago, Chile. AFP PHOTO DAVID LILLO (Photo credit should read DAVID LILLO/AFP/Getty Images) 2:38 p.m. ET, 1/19/07.

The "stone" is believed by many Nostradamus experts to be the nuclear warhead on the tip of a missile, and the "tree" the plume of fiery debris and smoke rising heavenward after the explosion.

Nostradamus may be describing the United States as "the proud nation." The US will be "brought down" fast because of some horrible weapon. A nuclear weapon or weapons!

In the last line he says that human beings will be turned into mist during what can only be a nuclear attack.

Saddam Hussein is the "monster purged" from Iraq, and the price he paid ("expiation") for his crimes against humanity was his hanging!

Quatrain 2.62

Mabus will soon die, then will come
Of people and beasts a horrible destruction:
Then all too suddenly the vengeance is revealed,
A hundred, hand, thirst, hunger, when the comet shall run.

Now will the "great destruction of humans and beasts" follow? Is there to be "sudden vengeance" against America for the execution of Mabus (Saddam) in the form of nuclear terrorism?

Or will there actually be a nuclear war ?

Because Saddam died heroically and because he was mocked at his execution by Shi'a who support Muqtada al-Sadr, the Sunni populace is enraged and preparing for civil war in ernest.

As I write, the first great destruction of humans and beasts is being reported in the wake of a US air strike in Somalia:

 

U.S. strikes at al Qaeda in Somalia, "many dead"

Tue 9 Jan 2007 5:22 AM ET

By Guled Mohamed

MOGADISHU, Jan 9 (Reuters) - A U.S. attack plane killed many people with barrages of gunfire in a remote Somali village occupied by Islamists thought to be hiding at least one al Qaeda suspect, a Somali government source said on Tuesday.

In the first known direct U.S. military intervention in Somalia since a failed peacekeeping mission that ended in 1994, an AC-130 plane rained gunfire on the desolate southern village of Hayo near the Kenyan border late on Monday.

"I understand there are so many dead bodies and animals in the village," the senior source told Reuters.

The U.S. Navy also confirmed it had moved the aircraft carrier Eisenhower to the Somali coast -- Africa's longest -- to beef up a naval cordon it had already put there as the Islamists sought refuge in the remote southern tip.

"They are, with other ships, making sure that terrorists are not able to use the sea as a means of transport," said Charlie Brown, a spokesman for the U.S. Fifth Fleet, which is based in the Gulf state of Bahrain.

U.S. intelligence believes Abu Talha al-Sudani, identified in grand jury testimony against Osama bin Laden as an explosives expert from Sudan, is the leader of east Africa's al Qaeda cell and has been in and out of Somalia for over a decade.

"The Americans are saying an al Qaeda member heading operations in east Africa is among the Islamists there," the source said. He did not know the man's name or whether he died.

U.S., Ethiopian and Kenyan intelligence officials say some Islamists have provided shelter to a handful of al Qaeda members, including suspects in the 1998 bombings of the U.S. embassies in Kenya and Tanzania and a 2002 hotel bombing on the Kenyan coast.

Besides al-Sudani, Washington has named Comorian Fazul Abdullah Mohammed and Kenyan Saleh Ali Saleh Nabhan among the al Qaeda members in Somalia.

The Washington Post, quoting unnamed military sources, said al-Sudani was one target of the raid.

 

US air strike on Somali village - 9 Jan 2007

Comet McNaught from Perth skies - 16 Jan 2007

The two videos above can be played simulataneously since only the left video has sound.

 

The air strike on Somalia fulfills one of my predictions on 2007 (Part One) where I actually name Somalia as a potential target.

Could this be the start of the "great destruction of people and beasts?" Is the US planning on other attacks in other countries, perhaps another "shock and awe" air assault in Iraq to destroy all insurgents and the long-waited air strikes on Iran? What of North Korea's Kim Jong Il and his recent announcement that another nuclear test will be conducted very soon ... could Kim actually be planning an attack against the United States under the guise of nuclear tests? Events in space and on earth are moving quickly ...

Nostradamus seemed to believe that a new "Marianne" will use extreme and painful measures to impose peace upon an increasingly restive France, plagued by periodic rioting by disaffected Parisian youths and a growing Muslim population angry with French laws that interfere with the practise of their religion and under the sway of a popular firebrand mullah in the Lauragues (now Castelnaudary in Aude, southwestern France). Her reign, according to the French seer, will come to a bad end.

It is possible he predicted that the election of this woman, Segolene Royal, might occur not long after the hanging of Saddam Hussein.

Saddam hanged
Quatrain 1.94

Au port Selin le tyran mis à mort, La liberté non pourtant recouuree Le nouueau Mars par vindicte & remort, Dame par la foere de frayeur honoree.

At the Muslim port, the tyrant shall be put to death, However, liberty shall not be recovered: New war shall start through vindictiveness and remorse, A lady by force of terror shall be honoured.

Saddam: about to die Quatrain 1.92

Sous vn la paix par tout ƒera clamée, Mais non long temps, pille & rebellion: Par refus ville, terre & mer entamée, Morts & captifs le tiers d'vn milion.

Under one man peace will be proclaimed everywhere, But not long after will be looting and rebellion. Because of a refusal, town, land and sea will be broached, A third of a million dead or captured.

NOTE: Selin is from the Greek Selena, goddess of the crescent moon and, thus, a symbol of Islam. The tyrant, Saddam Hussein, was put to death by hanging near the Tigris River. This has stimulated further sectarian violence and terrorism in Iraq as the country plunges deeper into civil war. The "new war" may extend to other nearby nations such as Turkey, Syria and Iran. The "lady" may be Segolene Royal as newly-elected President of France. Terrorism and unrest in southern France and possibly in and around Paris shall be ignited "in honour" of her election victory.

Unlike Segolene Royal, in an alternative election where Chirac wins, there appears to be a celebratory air after his being elected and some initial success in establishing and maintaining peace and accord throughout France during a third term. Nor does he appear to stoop to oppression to accomplish this as is indicated in Q1.94 under a Royal administration. However, the eventual results are the same: looting and rebellion by youth gangs, mobs of malcontents, and ethnic Muslims, with a foreshadowing of revolution and an eventual Iranian invasion of southern France.

This election will not be held until April 2007 and any runoff election may be as late as May 2007. Could the "Mabus effect" continue to occur and worsen this long after the passing of Comet McNaught and Saddam's execution: a period of four or five months? It is very, very possible.

 Quatrain 5.19

Le grand Royal d'or, d'airain augmenté,
Rompu la pache, par ieune ouuerte guerre,
Peuple affligé par vn chef lamenté,
De sang barbare sera couuert de terre.

The great Royal of gold, by brass is augmented,
The treaty broken, war is opened by a young man:
People afflicted by a lamentable leader,
With barbarian blood will the land be covered.

Perhaps war with North Korea does not take place until the female candidate Segolene Royale ("great Royal of gold") wins the French presidential election in the spring. Not only is the last name, "Royal," named; but so is "Segolene" with the word "gold."

The reference to "brass" may mean that she does not revive the economy and the times will become substandard ("brass"). It also has the meaning that she rises to power (is "augmented") by raising and investing a great deal of money in her campaign. "Brass" can mean coinage, ie. money.

To Nostradamus, the pudgy-faced Kim Jong Il would have the appearance of a "young man," although he is in middle age. The young man could also be Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad if Iran declares war on US troops in Iraq and the Persian Gulf.

The people who are "afflicted" with a "lamentable leader" might be the people of France, since Ms Royal is not portrayed favourably in Quatrain 3.28: "Never in the kingdom has there arrived one so bad." Otherwise, it could be the leader of Iran, Ahmadinejad; or the new leader of Iraq, now powerless to stop the raging civil war; or the people of North Korea living in hardship under the lamentable "dear leader," Kim Jong Il.

The last line, "barbarians," often is used for Arabs and Muslims. But I suppose Nostradamus, seeing North Koreans, might consider these Mongols as "barbarians" too. Then again, the last line may mean jihad has come to southern France as predicted by Nostradamus, this time either from foreign invasion or by revolution of ethnic Muslims. In any case, a Muslim attack or uprising will be put down with great force and violence, causing their blood to cover the land. Yet another interpretation is that an air war has been launched against Iran around the same time as war with North Korea. Although I doubt such a war will end in victory for the US, the initial air campaign will certainly cause much bloodshed.

The following quatrain is even more terrifying because it could mean some sort of nuclear naval battle between Russia or China and the United States:

Quatrain 3.13

Through lightning in the ship gold and silver melted,
Of the two captives [of war] one the other will devour:
The greatest one of the city is stretched,
When the fleet swims submerged.

The action of this quatrain appears to coincide with the hanging ("stretched") of a nation's leader. This may be Saddam Hussien and the city may be Baghdad.

This nuclear showdown, however, could occur almost anywhere. It is most probable if it were to be fulfilled any time soon that the battlefield would be the Pacific Ocean or the Persian Gulf. Two adversaries ("captives"), each having tremendous forces, face off, destroying each other's fleets. This could be war between China and the United States, triggered by actions made by North Korea.

The “captives” could also allude to the intertwined fate of the twins, Castor and Pollux: Russia and the US. Russia may, seemingly overnight, become an adversary of the US in both Eastern Europe and the Middle East, now plagued by several wars.

One side will provoke the other and a naval battle will commence. As the fighting escalates, in a state of confusion and panic, US and Russian or Chinese submarine commanders will retaliate by launching armed conventional torpedoes. The circle of fire will widen, with more US and Russian or Chinese ships being destroyed in a nuclear naval battle ... one capable of triggering a nuclear attack on the US mainland. Line 4 is an excellent description of a submarine fleet.

Hopefully, these interpretations are wrong. But if they are right, there is very little time remaining.

 

 

NOSTRADAMUS WARNS: WORDS AND ACTIONS OF
ADAM GADAHN, "THE AMERICAN AL QAEDA," WILL BE
LINKED TO NUCLEAR DESTRUCTION OF NYC

By Michael McClellan

 

 

"We send a special invitation to convert to Islam to all of you fighting Bush‘s crusader pipe dream in Afghanistan, Iraq and wherever else ‘W‘ has sent you to die. You know the war can‘t be won.
Christianity is but a hollow shell of a religion, whose followers cling to an empty faith and
a false conviction in their own salvation. It is time for the unbelievers to discard these
incoherent and illogical beliefs.

Isn‘t it the time for the Christians, Jews,Buddhists and atheists to cast off the cloak of the spiritual
darkness which enshrouds them and emerge into the light of Islam?

We invite all Americans and believers to Islam, wherever they are, whatever their role and status in Bush and Blair's world order. Decide today, because today could be your last day.

Ignorance causes the people of the West to rapturously applaud when Israel perpetrates wholesale slaughter of Muslims in Lebanon and Palestine and leads them to give their consent to the atrocities that governments commit in Afghanistan, Iraq and elsewhere in the Muslim world. America shows more concern for the statues of Buddha destroyed by the rightful Taliban rulers than it shows of the people of Afghanistan and Iraq.

The West is the civilization which enslaved Africa, slaughtered native Americans, fired bombs at Tokyo
and Fallujah and nuked Hiroshima and Nagasaki. To Americans and the rest of Christendom we say,
either repent your misguided ways and enter into the light of truth or keep your poison to yourself
and suffer the consequences in this world and the next. But whatever you do don't attempt
to spread your misery and misguidance to our lands."

-- Adam Gadahn, aka Azzam, "the American al-Qaeda" (September 2, 2006)

 

September 2, 2006 (10:47 PM EDT), UPDATED September 12, 2006 (7:49 PM EDT) - We must all wonder when watching and hearing Adam Gadahn, the now infamous "Azzam the American," speaking out to the West on videotape with all the same authority as Ayman al-Zawahri and Osama bin Laden, if he is actually doing so completely of his free will. Is it possible that Gadahn is a brainwashed hostage rather than a willing convert? How would Nostradamus describe someone who is seemingly free yet held captive psychologically? It is here I believe that the prophet is describing Adam Gadahn as he is today and the role he may one day play:

Quatrain 9.92

The King will want to enter the new city.
By enemies who will come to subdue it,
A captive will be falsely freed to speak and act.
The King to be outside, he will stay far from the enemy.

Quatrain 5.83

Those who will have an enterprise to subvert
An unparalleled kingdom, powerful and invincible:
They will confront by fraud, warn for three nights,
When the greatest one is reading his Bible at the table.

Adam Gadhan - 'The American Al Qaeda'

Could line 3 of Quatrain 9.92 be Nostradamus' way of describing a brain-washed American hostage who has complete freedom "to speak and act," much in the way Adam Gadahn has been allowed? It seems the prophet envisions a kind of "Manchurian Candidate" type who will be broadcast on the evening news and whose purpose will be to either lull fears or actually warn of a pending nuclear attack against New York City. Perhaps he will even help carry out the detonation of the device as a kind of nuclear version of Timothy McVeigh.

We all know that is it only a matter of time before terrorists destroy New York City -- the economic capital of America and the world -- with a nuclear device or a nuclear-tipped rocket. Twice it has been attacked, in 1993 and in 2001. The second attack, compared to the first, was like a massive, destructive earthquake compared to a less severe temblor that only managed to shatter some windows, crack a few buildings, and rattle everyone's nerves. When terrorists strike NYC a third time, the magnitude of the act will go off the chart. It will be the final time: a nuclear attack. Perhaps, it will be the "American Al Qaeda" himself who will execute the final directive. I believe this event will take place in August/September 2008 or April 2009, but it could still happen much sooner.

No question that the "unparalleled kingdom" in Quatrain 5.83 is the United States of America, if this portent of doom is intended for our time. We should anticipate three videotapes, three nights in a row or nearly, to be shown on television, aimed squarely at the citizens of the United States. Is today's videotape from Ayman al-Zawahri and "Azzam the American" the first of three to come? "Fraud," in this Nostradamus quatrain, is intended to mean "to deceive, to confuse."

So as "the greatest one," President George W. Bush, reads his Bible, we wait for yet another videotaped warning.

He will wish to visit the "Big Apple," but will suspect treachery and "stay far from the enemy." From an underground bunker somewhere or from Strategic Defense headquarters, he will watch, hoping against all hope that the act will not be carried out. He may even prepare to direct efforts to defend the city using his missile defence system in the event the attack comes from enemy nuclear ballistic missiles. But the devices that will bring destruction will already be in the city, unreachable and hidden.

 

CALM BEFORE THE FIRESTORM? (An Exercise in Terror)

 

Quatrain 5.83

Those who will have an enterprise to subvert
An unparalleled kingdom, powerful and invincible:
They will confront by fraud, warn for three nights,
When the greatest one is reading his Bible at the table.

Two sets of videotapes, exactly five days apart (September 2 and September 7), have been shown on television, aimed squarely at the citizens of the United States. Will a third one, possibly the dreaded announcement from Bin Laden or another Al Qaeda figure surface on September 10, two nights from now?

On the first tape already discussed above, Ayman al-Zawahri, Bin Laden's second-in-command, introduced a lengthy appeal from Adam Gadahn aka "Azzam the American," otherwise known as "the American Al Qaeda." The key wording to that message was "We invite all Americans and believers to Islam, wherever they are, whatever their role and status in Bush and Blair's world order. Decide today, because today could be your last day" and "To Americans and the rest of Christendom we say, either repent your misguided ways and enter into the light of truth or keep your poison to yourself and suffer the consequences in this world and the next." Clearly this was a last chance being given Americans to convert to Islam or else those who do not will face the dire consequences.

Yesterday's double videotape (September 7) came from Al Qaeda the organisation and from Iraqi al Qaeda leader Abu Hamza al-Muhajir (believed to be Egyptian-born Abu Ayyub al-Masri). The Al Qaeda tape shows Bin Laden plotting the attacks on the World Trade Centre and the Pentagon with fellow terorists in early 2001. Although by appearances its release was intended to taunt the West on the eve of September 11 anniversary, it may well be a warning that another major attack is coming. Meanwhile, Iraqi al Qaeda leader Al-Muhajir warns: "I do not doubt for an instant victory." He tells US forces not to be "proud of the number and the equipment", adding: "The war has just begun." All of this is a perfect preface for a third and final terrorist threat on videotape that could surface in a few days from the leader of Al Qaeda himself, Osama Bin Laden.

Osama bin Laden delivers last videotape in 2004 - will another be seen in a few days?

Will the dreaded third tape be released soon, as a specific warning of a coming horrific attack against the US that will make all other threats in previous tapes and the videotaped anniversary reminder of 911 pale in comparison? Azzam the American has warned, in so many words, that little time remains for the citizens of the United States.

Adam Gadhan - 'The American Al Qaeda'

"We invite all Americans and believers to Islam, wherever they are, whatever their role and status in Bush and Blair's world order. Decide today, because today could be your last day ...

The West is the civilization which enslaved Africa, slaughtered native Americans, fired bombs at Tokyo
and Fallujah and nuked Hiroshima and Nagasaki. To Americans and the rest of Christendom we say,
either repent your misguided ways and enter into the light of truth or keep your poison to yourself
and suffer the consequences in this world and the next. But whatever you do don't attempt
to spread your misery and misguidance to our lands."

... and is this tape really saying another 911 is near?

"It is bizarre and chilling that Al Qaeda should wait all of this time, until the eve of a major anniversary, to release this tape and it goes to prove that they are highly skilled at propaganda and manipulating the media," said Dr Vivian Brown, a terrorism expert and consultant to the US State Department. She added: "They have made the video available at a time when they are sure to get maximum publicity."

A third tape has been released, this time "starring" Ayman al-Zawahri, bin Laden's second-in-command. Still nothing quite specific regarding an attack on the US mainland has emerged. Rather, Al Qaeda's sights appear to be aimed at destroying the US military presence in the Persian Gulf and the state of Israel, with a vague threat against the UN peacekeepers assembling in Lebanon. Also, in the most general and even ambiguous of terms, there appeared to be a hint that strikes against America itself may soon commence, yet the warning ended in what sounded like yet another threat against US military forces.

This third tape most certainly did not sound like an Al Qaeda warning on the eve of an "American Hiroshima." Far more threatening have been past videotapes made a year and more ago.

I have noted that al-Zawahri's warnings have never preceded anything momentous. In all four cases of major attacks, 911, 311, 7-7 and Bali, Bin Laden had the last word on audiotape or videotape.

Therefore, I have to conclude that the Nostradamus scenario discussed above in Quatrain 5.83 has yet to happen. In all likelihood when it does the videotapes will be aired on three consecutive nights, not three tapes over the space of eight or nine days as was the case this time around.
