Who In Their Right Mind Thinks This Is A Good Idea??

~ Randy Harris ~ Leave a comment

At times I think the man I voted for 3 different times has completely lost his mind. Turkey? A sworn enemy of Israel. Turkey, Qatar and Saudi Arabia get our most advanced fighter jets. Turkey is a sworn enemy of Israel. Mr. President you have no idea of the ramifications of walking with the devil. Is Israel still an ally? Make it make sense. Israel was two weeks from victory in Gaza, and Kushner and Witkoff, at your bidding stop Israel. Why? Questions, but no intelligent answers.

(Dec. 16, 2025 / JNS)

Qatar is in negotiations with the United States to purchase F-35 stealth fighter jets, adding to Israeli concerns about maintaining its military edge as several Middle Eastern countries pursue the advanced aircraft, Hebrew media reported on Monday.

The discussions between Qatar and Washington represent a renewed push after Doha’s request for the jets stalled five years ago, according to Israel’s Channel 12News. Unlike previous attempts, current talks appear more substantive, raising alarm in Jerusalem.

Israel is growing increasingly concerned as several regional powers simultaneously pursue American military hardware. Saudi Arabia is pushing ahead with an F‑35 purchase as part of an emerging U.S.–Saudi defense pact, after President Donald Trump said Washington “will be selling F‑35s” to the kingdom. The United Arab Emirates may seek to revive a previously suspended F-35 purchase. Turkey is also exploring acquisition possibilities.

The Israeli defense establishment warns these combined sales could erode the air force’s qualitative military advantage, which depends on technological superiority and operational freedom across the Middle East.

In response, Israel has begun drafting a compensation package that includes two new fighter squadrons—one F-35 unit and one F-15IA squadron, specially adapted for Israeli use—along with substantial ammunition supplies, according to the report.

Israeli officials face pressure to act quickly, according to Channel 12, as delays could push the country back in American manufacturers’ production schedules. Defense sources believe securing enhanced capabilities is critical to maintaining Israel’s military superiority despite the narrowing window for negotiations with the Trump administration while it is reshaping regional arms sales.

Good Morning, Welcome to Prophetic News 

Lots going on in the world this week.   I try my best to give you some of the most important and up to date issues that are of concern to me and hopefully to you.  Current events that either lead to prophetic events or Biblical prophecy.  In all of this remember you were born for such a time as this.  At my favorite coffee cafe this morning on the sleeve of the coffee cup was written, “it will all make sense one day.”  Maranatha!

Bachmann: Kushner, Witkoff’s Gulf Ties Undermined Israel’s Victory

Former Minnesota congresswoman Michele Bachmann believes that Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff, who have longtime business ties to the Middle East, played key roles in hindering Israel’s victory over Hamas.

Speaking at the Family Research Council’s “Pray Vote Stand Summit” in Chino Hills, California, on a panel titled “Israel: In Search of Shalom,” Bachmann said she was “perplexed” that President Donald Trump brought in private businessmen rather than Secretary of State Marco Rubio, to guide peace negotiations. 

She questioned why official diplomacy was effectively delegated to Trump’s son-in-law and real estate developer Witkoff, who both maintain long-standing financial relationships in the Gulf.

Vice President JD Vance criticized New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani on Saturday, writing on X that according to the Democrat, “the real victim of 9/11” was his aunt.

Vance made the remark as early voting began Saturday in New York City, where Mamdani, the frontrunner in the race, is trying to fend off challengers Andrew Cuomo and Curtis Sliwa.

“I want to speak to the memory of my aunt. Who stopped taking the subway after September 11th because she did not feel safe in her hijab,” Mamdani said in a clip of a Friday campaign event that Vance shared.

“According to Zohran, the real victim of 9/11 was his auntie who got some (allegedly) bad looks,” Vance said.

China says it ‘absolutely will not’ rule out use of force over Taiwan

October 29, 2025

China absolutely will not” rule out using force over Taiwan, a government spokesperson said on Wednesday, striking a much tougher tone than a series of articles in state media this week that pledged benign rule if the island comes over to Beijing.

China, which views democratically governed Taiwan as its own territory, has never renounced use of force to “reunify” with the island.

But the policy is not often directly voiced in public and did not appear in three Xinhua news agency commentaries this week about Taiwan, one of which mapped out how “patriots” could rule the island after “reunification” and promised Taiwan’s existing social system and way of life would be respected.

China controls the rare earths the world buys – can Trump’s new deals change that?

October 28, 2025

Source: BBC

US President Donald Trump has signed a flurry of deals on his Asia visit to secure the supply of rare earths, a critical sector that China has long dominated.

The deals with Japan, Malaysia, Thailand, Vietnam and Cambodia differ in size and substance and it’s too early to assess their tangible impact. But they all include efforts to diversify access to the minerals that have become essential for advanced manufacturing, from electric vehicles to smartphones.

The agreements, which aim to lock partners into trading with the US, are a clear bid to reduce dependence on China, ahead of a key meeting with its leader Xi Jinping.

They could eventually challenge Beijing’s stranglehold over rare earths, but experts say it will be a costly process that will take years.

Well you wanted it, now we have it.  AI will take over someday, (Hope I’m gone.). 30,00 layoffs by Amazon.  Get ready for more, definitely a coming attraction.

I know I’m a baby boomer, but I’m not ready for the “new” future. Reminds me of a song from back in the day.

In the year 2525, if man is still alive,

 If woman can survive, they may find

In the year 3535,

Ain’t gonna need to tell the truth, tell no lie

Everything you think, do and say

Is in the pill you took today

In the year 4545

You ain’t gonna need your teeth, won’t need your eyes

You won’t find a thing to chew

Nobody’s gonna look at you

In the year 5555

Your arms hangin’ limp at your sides

Your legs got nothin’ to do

Some machine’s doin’ that for you

In the year 6565

You won’t need no husband, won’t need no wife

You’ll pick your son, pick your daughter too

From the bottom of a long glass tube

On that depressing note, enjoy your weekend!   P.S. My generation did have the best music. Rh

Prophetic Journalism / Deal is Flawed

~ Randy Harris ~ Leave a comment

I was extremely concerned about the proposed “peace plan,” but never fear now we are hearing that according to Qatar and others it is just a “good starting point.” Same old song and dance, delay and try to negotiate. Stand firm, it’ either agree or face the consequences. Trump said they had 48 hours and then Israel was going to do what they had to do. By the way there is a path to a two state solution in the deal. That would be the worst mistake Trump would ever make. Joel 3:2 gives a warning for nations who divide the land of Israel.

I hope this falls through, we can do better. If Mexico was doing to us what Hamas has done to Israel, invading our cities and raping and killing woman and children, and killing our citizens they would be a distant memory. But somehow Israel is supposed to make peace? I think not.

This deal is flawed and never will work, it’s nothing more than a lame attempt to put lipstick on a pig. It’s time to end this without Qatar who happens to be the main sponsor of terror in the region. Trump’s negotiators are too close to Qatar. Witkoff and Kushner have made $ millions and in some cases $ billions by managing their investments or in Witkoff’s case Qatar paid off an overdue loan on a hotel to the tune of over $600 million. That my friends I did not vote for!!

Stay tuned, it should get interesting. Look up the world is falling apart. But for the Christian it’s falling into place. We are in Prophetic times.
