(Jan. 22, 2026 / JNS)

A bipartisan bill aimed at reinforcing U.S. ties with Israel and the Eastern Mediterranean region advanced through the House Foreign Affairs Committee on Wednesday by a 45-2 vote.

H.R. 3307, titled the Eastern Mediterranean Gateway Act, seeks to elevate the region as a strategic priority in U.S. foreign policy by strengthening support for initiatives such as the U.S.-led 3+1 dialogue with Greece, Israel and Cyprus, as well as the East Mediterranean Gas Forum, which covers issues like energy security, regional integration and economic cooperation.  https://www.jns.org/house-panel-advances-bill-to-boost-us-ties-with-israel-eastern-mediterranean/ 

Sunday’s Invasion At Cities Church Shows The Deeply Spiritual Side To The Marxist Movement

“Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution” (2 Tim. 3:12).

Cities Church, a Southern Baptist congregation in St. Paul, Minn., was invaded by a mob of anti-ICE protestors on Sunday, Jan. 18. Leftist instigators targeted this congregation, alleging one of its pastors is affiliated with ICE in the Twin Cities. Reports reveal that the worship service had to be canceled because of the agitators’ intimidation tactics. 

Paul warned young Timothy that persecution would come upon those who desired to live godly lives. The godless disruptors in St. Paul entered a holy place, a sanctuary set aside for the worship of Almighty God, to prohibit it from sharing God’s Word on a Sunday morning.https://harbingersdaily.com/sundays-invasion-at-cities-church-shows-the-deeply-spiritual-side-to-the-marxist-movement/

A Message from Amir Tsarfati

Will Trump’s approach to regime change in Iran resemble the Venezuela model – Ali Khamenei out, but another, more “moderate” ayatollah in?

Is this simply a way for the Iranians to buy time until Trump leaves office?

One thing is clear:

• The Bible is far more accurate than today’s newspapers.

Biblically:

• Persia (Iran) will join a coalition against Israel.

When I hear promises of support for the brave Iranian protesters, I feel deep sadness.

• I know in my heart that none of Trump’s closest advisers are capable of thinking beyond the business dimension.

• If a negotiated deal can buy time and prevent market disruption, the ayatollah regime will remain in power.

The same applies to Hamas.

• Do we really believe it will agree to be dismantled?

• Do we really believe Hezbollah will?

The Middle East is not a business venture like Venezuela.

• It is a region drenched in extreme religious ideology.

• Time and again, it has proven that financial gain and prosperity are no match for the “honor” its adherents believe they attain by leaving this world as martyrs.

Israel had better be prepared for the day it will stand alone, facing the most massive attack – from the north.

The Witkoffs and the Kushners will not be there to help.

BUT God…

IMO here is a great cross section of things that interest me and also have prophetic implications.  We are living in perilous times, as well as “Prophetic Times.” Not to mention the ongoing saga in Gaza, that I foresee as having no real solution until Hamas has been defeated completely.  Compromise and peace deals do not work with the Jihadist, including the evil that is the remine in Iran.  Thousands have been slaughtered in Iran, it is time to act or sit down and shut up. Red lines do no good unless there are consequences for delay tactics and stalling.  Wait and delay is the modus operandi in negotiations with the West. Rh

Greenland – the hidden continent between the oceans

– Physical facts – a giant of ice

Greenland is the largest island on Earth, covering about 2.1 million square kilometers – roughly 100 times the size of Israel.

Only about 20% of the island is exposed – the rest is buried beneath a massive ice sheet.

Despite its immense size, Greenland is home to only about 56,000 people – making it one of the least populated places on the planet.

– The sovereignty paradox – self-rule under a crown

Formally, Greenland is a self-governing territory within the Kingdom of Denmark.

Denmark is responsible for foreign affairs and defense and provides annual subsidies that constitute a significant portion of the local budget.

Since 2009, aspirations for full independence have grown, with local parties pointing to 2030 as a target year.

– Location is everything – the bridge between North America and Europe

Greenland’s true value lies in its geography.

It sits at the meeting point between the Atlantic Ocean and the Arctic Ocean.

– The United States’ front yard

Geologically, Greenland belongs to North America.

Control of Greenland means control over access to the northern part of the continent.

– The Arctic lock

Greenland forms the central leg of the Greenland–Iceland–UK gap.

This is the critical maritime corridor through which the Russian navy must pass to move from the Arctic into the Atlantic.

– The awakening strategic significance

For decades, Greenland was viewed as a frozen wasteland of limited importance.

Global warming is now melting the ice and exposing two strategic opportunities – dramatically shorter maritime trade routes and access to rare natural resources that were previously unreachable.

– Summary

Greenland is a land of contrasts – vast territory with a tiny population – Danish sovereignty alongside ambitions for independence – and a geographic position that makes it the key to the North Atlantic.

Understanding these fundamentals explains why global powers are willing to engage in diplomatic and economic confrontation to gain a foothold there.

(Strategy and Geopolitic)

What started as a lark, (at least that’s what I thought), is seemingly getting some traction. There is no doubt the strategic importance of not only Greenland, but the whole Article area as well. Look for a compromise, the minerals are worth an untold amount of $$$. Rh
