NOSTRADAMUS: RUSSIA AT WAR IN EASTERN AND CENTRAL EUROPE

Castor and Pollux at War Quatrains 2.90 and 2.15: NEW BALKANS WAR SPREADS TO HUNGARY: RUSSIA AT WAR WITH THE UNITED STATES OR BELARUS? Nostradamus describes two great brothers of the North many times in his quatrains. Could the twins -- Castor and Pollux -- also represent Russia and the US? The potential trigger for a war in Hungary is prophesied by A Sister of Queen Brigite Order and Brother Adam of Wuerzburg.

Great exertions towards Russia by hommasse Quatrain 8.15: WAR BETWEEN RUSSIA AND U.S.-LED NATO FORCES SPREADS THROUGHOUT EUROPE, POSSIBLE NATO INVASION OF RUSSIA. Conflicts in the Balkans and the former Soviet Union inevitably lead to war between Russia and Nato.

UPDATE (4.5.06): Could the hommasse ("masculine woman") who vexes Russia, and nearly all of Europe in the process, be a future US President Hillary Clinton or Hamas, the new terrorist government of Gaza?

Germany defends Samartia and Pannonia Quatrain 3.58: RUSSIA MOVES TO RECLAIM FORMER SOVIET EMPIRE -- EURO-RUSSIAN WAR IN EASTERN EUROPE AND THE BALKANS. The coming war between Russia and the European Union in Poland, Lithuania, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Belarus, Ukraine, Hungary, Yugoslavia, Croatia, and Bosnia. Quatrain 5.94: THE PHONY ALLIANCE. And WORLD WAR III as prophesied in the Liber Vaticinationem Quodam Instinctumentis.

 

OTHER PROPHETS: THE RUSSIAN INVASION OF EUROPE AND WORLD WAR III

The Prophecies of Alois Irlmaier In the 1950s, German visionary Alois Irlmaier revealed what may be the most horrific account of the coming Russian invasion of Europe at a time of war in the Middle East and Pacific, the Western response, and the resulting escalation of World War III.

Following the presentation is a review of Irlmaier's predictions from other prophetic perspectives.

Brother Adam, Wuerzburg 1949 Before Irlmaier's detailed chronology we witness a very similar prophecy. Russia invades the whole of Europe following a staged Balkans war. Also the Pope who must flee Rome and the Western leader who will bring an end to the war with great fury are chronicled.

Joseph Stockert, Josef Kugelbeer - The Seer of Vorarlberg, Farmer Eilert, and the Sybille of Prague.

 

PROPHECIES OF AN US-RUSSIAN NUCLEAR WAR

The Prophecies of Erna Stiegltz According to this early 20th Century prophet, a total thermonuclear war will happen when a Russian blitzkrieg of Europe is repelled by Western forces. OUT OF SPITE, Russia will destroy the cities of America and America will retaliate. WHAT IS THE LIKELIHOOD OF AN US-RUSSIAN NUCLEAR EXCHANGE? AN ACCIDENTAL NUCLEAR WAR?

RUSSIA IN THE NEWS

 


On The Eve of World War III?

Gerhard Schroeder dismayed by events in Ukraine

November 25, 2004, UPDATED November 28, 2004 (10:00 PM EST) - Suddenly, without warning, what was just another election in Eastern or Central Europe is not only threatening to become the worst civil war since the Balkans conflicts, but, far more serious, a potential battleground between Russia and Nato. Overnight, German Chancellor Gerhard Schroeder finds himself at odds with his "ally" Russian President Vladimir Putin whilst Washington and Moscow watch their own "alliance" unraveling more each hour, reverting to the hostile confrontation of the Cold War.

But like I have always maintained on this website: the "death of the Cold War" was merely an illusion.

What we are now witnessing in Ukraine could very well be the beginning of fulfillment of the most nightmarish prophecies, predictions, and dream visions that have maintained a constant presence on this website since it first aired in May 1999. I hate to state the obvious, but I told you so.

Oh yes, perhaps Ukraine will not slip into civil war, the leaders will negotiate, and soon this whole ordeal will be behind us. But let us not forget that already there are Russian troops in Kiev preparing for a civilian slaughter and more behind them awaiting a possible military conflict with an outraged Nato and United States. Even if the worst should not happen this time, we know the Rubicon in our international relations with Moscow has quickly been crossed and that mutual trust is something we will never know again. It will only be a matter of time before another pretext presents itself to Putin or his heirs to tangle with the West. The paranoia of Nato and EU encroachment on Russia's "near abroad" has finally taken its toll.

There will likely not be a three years and seven months period of US-Russian global policing as described in my article, Crossroads, on Nostradamus NOW. Clearly, the "reign left to two" in Quatrain 4.95 must refer to the dominant role the US and UK have played in world events since 9/11. If so, the end - and not the beginning - of the three years and seven must be fastly approaching. One of the two "vassals" is rebelling: Ukraine. Now we can only await the rebellion of the second vassal (Israel?).

The dismayed Mr Schroeder, seen at top, has a role to play soon, if the worst is really happening:

Quatrain 3.58

Near the Rhine from the Noricum Mountains
(S. Germany, N. Austria),
Born one great of the people, too tardily come.
He will defend Sarmatia (
Poland, Lithuania, Estonia, Latvia, Ukraine and Belarus) and the Pannonians (Austria, Hungary, Slovenia, Croatia, Bosnia, Serbia and Montenegro),
One will not know what became of him.

Russian T-90 Tank

As can be seen, Ukraine is listed as one of the modern nations that once made up the land of Sarmatia. I should add, however, that Ukraine made up the lion's share of the ancient kingdom. For all we know, Nostradamus is using Sarmatia exclusively as the synonym for modern Ukraine.

If so, Germany will take on a powerful role as the dominant Nato and EU nation closest to Russia's "near abroad." For the first time since the Second World War, German forces will be deployed in a major conflict.

According to the above quatrain, Chancellor Gerhard Schroeder of Germany will be instrumental in the defence of Poland, Austria, Hungary, the former Yugoslavia, and the former Soviet republics of the Baltics, Belarus, and Ukraine. In another quatrain, we know it will likely be he since the leader in question will come from Saxony. Chancellor Gerhard Schroeder comes from lower Saxony.

Germany will require the aid of other Nato nations, of course, and the US will certainly be one of them when the civil war in Ukraine or Russian-Nato confrontation in Ukraine spreads to neighbouring Hungary:

Quatrain 2.90

Through life and death the rule in Hungary will change,
The law will become more bitter than servitude:
Their great city calls out with pleas and howls,
Castor and Pollux (US and Russia) are enemies in the field.

Bombing of Budapest

Whatever the "reasons" Moscow will give for its actions, the Russian occupation of Hungary will serve two purposes: one, the re-annexation of Budapest into a new Eastern Bloc, and two, a base of operations from which to pour reinforcements into Yugoslavia -- its only remaining ally in Central Europe.

US forces have been using Hungary as a staging base for peacekeeping operations in Bosnia since December 1995 and in Kosovo since June 1999. Both US and Russian troops are stationed in eastern Bosnia and Kosovo as peacekeepers. Should hostilities break out, Russian troops will likely begin firing on SFOR and KFOR positions while others join up with the Russian regular army pouring into Serbia and Hungary.

Russian tanks will then roll into Budapest accompanied by helicopter gunships and fighter jets. Moscow will issue a terrifying threat to the Nato alliance: withdraw from Eastern Europe and the Balkans or face Russia's formidable nuclear force. The United States, however, will refuse to stand down, matching Russia's threats with threats of its own.

Eventually, Russia will launch a terrifying blitzkrieg against Europe and, as certain German and Central European prophecies will bear out, soon afterwards the great "nuclear duel" between the US and Russia will occur. The loss of life to both sides will be quite catastrophic.

Not only are these scenarios in danger of playing out, but two base 7 vectors I attributed to them several years ago are very close to the current month of November 2004. The vectors for an intentional war between Russia and the United States are September-October 2004, November 2005, and June-September 2006.

Yet one other thought has come to mind with talk of revolution and civil war in Ukraine and fears of it spreading to nearby nations like Hungary. What if this is the revolution that has been prophesied that will spread throughout Europe, triggering a Russian blitzkrieg of the West? The prophecy runs thusly:

 

Josef Kugelbeer, The Seer of Vorarlberg (1922) ---

Like a lightning from cheerful sky the revolution of Russia sweeps through first to Germany, then to France, Italy and England. The mischief will quite suddenly come from Russia. Everywhere tumults and destruction. The Rhine areas are destroyed by airplanes and invading armies.

 

I had hoped that we might live on another year, perhaps until 2006 or even 2008, but events have quickly conspired to bring the threat of the unthinkable to our doorstep NOW ... or very soon.

God save us all.

 

Footnote (11/26/04) - One can now see some of the other players mentioned in Quatrain 3.58 entering the field: Poland and Lithuania. More and more the US and Russia are being portrayed as antagonists, like the battling twins Castor and Pollux. Everything appears to be unfolding little by little in keeping with Nostradamus' many warnings.

Putin reinstates Soviet-era star

Tuesday, November 26, 2002 Posted: 12:55 PM EST (1755 GMT)

Russian commie symbol is backMOSCOW, Russia (AP) -- President Vladimir Putin agreed Tuesday to reinstate the Soviet-era red star as the Russian military's official emblem -- in the latest reincarnation of Communist symbols that has sparked fears of a return to the repressive past.

The proposal came from Defence Minister Sergei Ivanov, who spoke Tuesday at a meeting of Russia's top generals attended by Putin. "The star is sacred for all servicemen," Ivanov said in remarks broadcast on Russian television as Putin sat behind him, frowning his brow. "Our fathers and grandfathers went to battle with the star."

Putin quickly endorsed Ivanov's appeal, and then voiced hope that the speakers of both houses of the Russian parliament would succeed in "convincing" lawmakers to approve the corresponding legislation.

The proposed resurrection of the red star is expected to be popular with the conservative military and appeared to be an attempt by the Kremlin to reinforce servicemen's loyalty.

But Putin's critics said it also sent a powerful signal to the rest of the country. "It's very serious because it doesn't just feed old people's nostalgia, but also affects the youth who don't understand the fascist or communist ideologies but are eager to grasp their symbols," Sergei Grigoryants, a Soviet-era dissident and strong critic of the government, said in a telephone interview.

On Putin's initiative, the Russian parliament earlier resurrected the music of the old Soviet anthem, albeit with a new words, and brought back the Soviet-era red banner as the military's flag. At the same time, it also endorsed the czarist-era white-red-and-blue flag that Russia has been using since the 1991 Soviet demise and the old imperial emblem of a double-headed eagle.

Putin has shrugged off criticism from liberals, who voiced fears that the return of the Communist symbols could herald the comeback of the Soviet-style authoritarian regime. He countered that the use of Soviet-era symbols should help mend deep rifts in society by acknowledging the achievements of the Soviet past that older generations cherish.

Lyudmila Alexeyeva, a Soviet-era dissident who heads the Moscow Helsinki Group, a leading human rights organisation, said that Putin has turned to old symbols in a bid to strengthen his support base. "No one is left out: Communists get their anthem, the conservatives have a double-headed eagle and democrats their tricolor flag," she said. "It makes one wonder what kind of national ideology such a state has."

Some observers interpreted the call for resurrecting the red star as an indication that the Kremlin had abandoned its push for radical military reform. The Kremlin had championed the creation of a leaner, professional military instead of the balky Soviet-style armed forces intended to confront the west.

"It may look like a trifle, but it gives an important signal to both the top brass and the civilian bureaucracy that the Soviet military machine will remain," said Pavel Felgenhauer, an independent military analyst.

The Kremlin's plans to abandon the unpopular draft and switch to an all-volunteer force have met stiff resistance from the top military brass who said that
