This is True News, the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, so help us God. I'm Rick Wiles. President Joe Biden is said to is very concerned about a possible third world war erupting in Ukraine. Doc Burghardt and I have the latest news to share with you coming out of Ukraine and other stories from around the world. Yes, sir. Well, Doc, we're finally at this point where nukes are in the news. Yeah, and it's becoming almost a daily occurrence too, but I think it's kind of disingenuous for the CIA to say that they're worried about Russia using nukes when really the whole issue of Russia being in Ukraine was over

nukes in the first place. Russia was concerned that NATO was going to put nukes in Ukraine. Good point. So, you know, this whole thing is about nukes. That's right. NATO nukes that they wanted in Ukraine, and Russia said, no, it's not going to happen. But we're at this place now that there is open discussion about the possibility that tactical nukes will be used, a tactical nuke meaning a smaller warhead, not a... A battleground nuke. Yeah, something that would take out

a small geographical area. But still, they're nuclear weapons. And just the fact that the CIA director is now saying, hey, we're getting concerned that Russia is going to use them. I think it might be related to what Russia said yesterday,

the warning that they gave Ukraine. If you continue to attack us on Russian soil, we're going to attack your governmental decision-making sites. Which they haven't done to this point yet. And they specifically said in the capital city of Kyiv. So the CIA may have information that is

indicating that the Russian military is reaching that point of exasperation with Ukraine, that they're going to resort to tactical nukes. We have a story. This was published by the Jerusalem Post, but the story is in numerous newspapers this afternoon. So the threat of Russia potentially using tactical or low-yield nuclear weapons in Ukraine cannot be taken lightly,

but the CIA has not seen a lot of practical evidence reinforcing that concern, CIA Director William Burns said on Thursday. He spoke at Georgia Tech of the potential desperation and setbacks dealt Russian President Vladimir Putin, whose forces have suffered heavy losses and have been forced to retreat from some parts of northern Ukraine after failing to capture Kyiv. For those reasons, none of us can take lightly the threat posed by a potential resort to tactical nuclear weapons or low-yield nuclear weapons, Burns said. Tactical and low-yield nuclear weapons refer to those designed for use on the battlefield,

of which some experts estimate Russia has about 2,000 that can be delivered by air, naval, and ground forces. And that 2,000 is only dealing with tactical nudes themselves. Russia, actually, their nuclear arsenal is more robust than America's as it stands right now as far as numbers are concerned. Talking about warheads that are delivered by ICBMs or submarines, but these would be low-yield nuclear weapons. I think what Mr. Burns is implying is, I would translate it this way. The CIA and the Pentagon have done a great job. We've got boots on the ground in Ukraine. And we are supplying weapons to the Ukrainian army,

and we have inflicted heavy losses on the Russian military. And because we've been so successful in killing Russian soldiers, we think Russia is going to pull back their troops and simply nuke Ukraine. Right. That's what I think he said. Well, Rick, help me walk through this because I'm trying to decipher, is this white propaganda, gray propaganda, or black propaganda?

Because what it could possibly mean is that imagine some player in this, either NATO or Ukraine, setting off a tactical nuke and saying it's Russia. I mean, then you've got a justifiable cause to get, you know, then the world's going to be in an uproar. They're using nuclear weapons in Ukraine now. We have to stand up against Vladimir Putin and Russia. That's a possibility. But I kind of lean towards my first suggestion that the U.S.

covert war, I mean, be real, the U.S. has military advisors and CIA agents, plus a lot of European intelligence officers and military advisors on the ground in Ukraine. Right. Directing the war. That one French reporter said, hey, from what I saw on the ground in Ukraine, the Americans are running the war. He specifically said the Pentagon. The Pentagon is running the war.

So if these numbers are anywhere close to being accurate about the number of casualties that the Russian military has suffered because of the U.S. supplying lethal weapons to the Ukrainian army and teaching them how to use it, I think it's very plausible that Putin is going to say, I'm not going to lose any more men. If anybody's going to lose anybody, it's going to be Ukraine. I'm going to pour troops back, and I'm going to nuke key government facilities. And we will bring Ukraine to their knees. And I think Putin's got the attitude, I don't care what NATO and Europe and the United States thinks. I'm in this war because of them, and I'm going to win it. And I think, Doc, we're very close to Russia using nukes. I'm not going to be surprised.

Well, as long as we keep ratcheting up the military hardware that we keep pumping into Ukraine. That's what I mean. That's what I mean. We're pushing him to the point of using nukes. Right. So once again, we're prodding him, we're pushing him and everything else. I mean, you know, really, if we wanted to win this war, this so-called war, why don't we give nukes to Ukraine? I mean, really, Rick, what's the difference between giving Ukraine an M-16, a fighter jet and a nuclear bomb. What's the difference between those? Really, what's the difference?

Well, Ukraine would have to deliver the nuclear bomb to Russia. Right. I'm saying as far as weaponry is concerned, what's the difference in it? If we're assisting Ukraine and we're going to give them a gun, a gun's okay, we'll give them a tank. A tank's okay, a fighter jet, that's okay. Is it okay to give Ukraine a nuclear weapon and say you can use it to defend yourself? I know where you're going with it. I just don't see NATO ever.

Because there's something wrong about a nuclear weapon, right? Yep. But fighter jets with bombs and tanks with shells are okay. I think it's more that they think they don't know how to handle these nukes. fighter jets with bombs and tanks with shells are okay. I think it's more that they think they don't know how to handle these nukes. They're not toys. But where we're at is, I think in the coming weeks,

we may wake up one morning and read news headlines russia uh deployed tactical nukes in ukraine i am not ruling this out this somebody said the other day that you know the pentagon was preparing for the war to last years they want this to be they want want Ukraine to be Russia's Afghanistan. Yeah, get bogged down. For 20 years. And they did have their own Afghanistan, ironically. But they would like it. They would like to stretch it out for years.

The U.S. defense contractors would make trillions of dollars. But the Kremlin and Moscow is thinking, oh, no, you're not going to drag us out, not going to bleed us out over years. We're going to finish this thing quick. And we're going to use the nukes, and we're going to bring Ukraine to its knees. So that's basically how we brought down the Soviet Union in the first place, without spent them. That's right. But we kept spending after we brought them down, too. That's right.

Well, there's some interesting news coming out of Ukraine today. This is from Times of Israel. You know, Moscow threatens to strike Kiev after Russian flagship seriously damaged. Now, the story is, and it's still developing here, Russia's Black Sea flagship leading the naval assault on Ukraine has been seriously damaged by an explosion. Now, there was reports of some explosion or fire on the Russian flagship. A few hours after that, Ukrainians said that they had actually delivered a missile strike to the Russian ship. Russia says, and this is from Axios, says that the flagship of the Black Sea fleet damaged in blast.

Russia's defense ministry confirmed Wednesday that its Moskva missile cruiser was badly damaged in a fire hours after Ukrainian forces claimed they'd struck the vessel in the Black Sea. So Russia's defense ministry said in a brief statement that ammunition detonated as a result of a fire on the Moskva missile cruiser. The ministry told state media that the ship's crew evacuated following the explosion. Just within the past half hour, it's being reported now as they were towing the ship back for repairs, it did sink. So that is confirmed now. So the question, the Russians saying a fire broke out, the Ukrainians saying the fire broke out because we hit it with a missile.

Right. If it was a missile, you can be certain that U.S. or European military advisors were right there. And it was a, it will turn out it was an American or European missile. I don't think the Ukrainians have missiles that hit ships in the sea. And I don't think they're capable of firing a missile that hits a warship in the sea. And the flagship, no less. I think American surveillance aircraft and various satellite GPS would help the Ukrainians hit a ship in the sea. At some point, folks, at some point, the Russians are going to say, that's enough. We've had enough of America. We've had enough of America.

We've had enough of it. Right. I don't know when that day comes. But when it comes, it's lights out here in America. Lights out. Okay. And that could be this year. It could be three, four, five years from now.

I don't know. But I know, I see no signs that the American ruling class is going to change its ways. No indication at all. The only thing I see is they're just hungrier every day for more blood, more fighting, more war. I see no indication that there's any leadership in America opposing the war, opposing what NATO has been doing to Russia. No one calling for a de-escalation of anything on either side right now. I mean, at least no one in the West calling for any kind of de-escalation at all. The Republican Party criticism of Joe Biden is he's not doing enough to attack Russia. Right.

The Democrats are saying he's doing just fine. America's involvement in the war is going just great. Because it can't be two per war, can it? Yes. But the Republicans are saying, no, we want more war. But there's nobody in either party saying this is insane. We're going to end up with a nuclear war someday and we'll have nobody to blame but ourselves. Actually, you have nobody to blame but America's sin.

Because it's going to be America's sin that brings about the destruction of the country. God's not going to do it. God's going to simply lift his hand of protection. The Lord's hands are over this country. They have been since the founding, but he's slowly lifting his hands away from the country. And it's just opening up a window over America for America's enemies to do whatever they have to do to this country. So it's not the Lord who wants to bring destruction on America. It's Satan that wants to bring destruction. And the way it's happening is the leadership of this country is led like a hook in their nose by Satan. And he's leading the upper class of this country right down a road that will lead to utter destruction of the country. And I feel like a lone voice in America crying out to this country to turn around that these policies are insane and they're going to

lead to great destruction but anyhow this is what's happening right now so um yesterday we reported that the russians said to the ukrainians you keep you keep attacking on russian soil and we're going to take out main government buildings in Kiev, the capital city. Now we have this ship hit. The Russians aren't admitting that the Ukrainians did it. The Ukrainians are bragging

that they did it. But if they did do it, there's going to be payback. There's going to be payback. And so get ready. Kiev has not been hit so far. Remember the, remember the massive convoy? Oh yes. It never ever launched its attack on Kiev. I don't know if the, if the Russians held back for a tactical reason or whether the resistance that the ukrainian military was putting up was strong enough to keep them from reaching keep but the russians have never launched

an attack on the capital city but they told us yesterday they're ready to do it now they will be accused of all kinds of war crimes. But I just remind you to think about when George W. Bush launched shock and awe on Baghdad. Remember watching? We're sitting home in our living rooms watching TV. We're watching the city be blown up. It was our entertainment, wasn't it? Yes, it was. It was the entertainment of the city be blown up. It was our entertainment, wasn't it? Yes, it was. It was the entertainment of the American people in 2003.

We watched Bush blow up Baghdad, Iraq. Ate her popcorn. Stayed up late at night to watch the latest news. And then get the reruns. Yes. You know? And everybody was an expert on it, too. Oh, yeah.

Remember that? Oh, yeah. But it was okay because it was America blowing up a city. That was okay. That was the patriotic thing to do. George W. Bush said Saddam Hussein had weapons of mass destruction. Couldn't find them. But I bet if you took a poll of just ordinary Americans, not politicians,

because I can't call them ordinary Americans at all, but just ordinary Americans, and you took a poll of 100 just random people on the street. What percentage do you think would be in favor of this war? Doc, I saw a poll yesterday. I don't know if it's accurate because I don't put much trust in

polls, because I think polls are part of that gray, black, and white propaganda. You can move people by saying the polls say. But the poll that I read yesterday said 68% of the American people want Biden to do more against Russia. Really? Yes. Wow. I don't know if it's accurate. I don't get it. What more do you want to do? They're getting their news. They're getting their opinions from Fox or CNN, MSNBC.

Where are you going to hear anything about peace? Nowhere. It's up to here. You're just going to hear war. Let's see. Oh, do you remember a couple of months ago I said, I'm going to tell you right now where the next theater is going to be. I said, they've gotten, they've got Putin's bogged down in Ukraine, but they're going to move

the theater, the war theater. They're going to move it to another country. And I gave you the name. Do you remember, do you remember me saying this? I said, Finland. I said, mark my words. I said, if I was a betting man, I'd bet right now. You generally said the Baltics. Yes. But I specifically said Finland. Right.

They're going to start trouble in Finland. Let's put the next headline up. Here you go. Russia threatens new nuclear deployments if Sweden and Finland join NATO. Now, that headline is a little misconstrued there. What it really should say is that Sweden and Finland are making their case to join NATO. NATO is saying if that's the case, then we consider that a new nuclear theater. Yes.

So Russia says a nuclear-free Baltic region would no longer be possible if Finland and Sweden join NATO. So there's kind of an uneasy alliance right now that says, you know, we're not doing any nuclear activity within any area of the Baltics. But now if Sweden and Finland join NATO, that's right up against Russia. That's right next door to them. You're going to have the same situation as in Ukraine. So Doc, all these years since World War II, NATO never could get Sweden and Finland to join NATO. They just said, no, we're not interested. We're not interested. We're peace loving folks up here. So what did they, what did NATO do? They provoked Russia to attack in Ukraine, knowing that once Putin attacked Ukraine, the NATO propaganda meisters could then go to work in Sweden and Finland and saying

to the Finns and the Swedes, you better get in NATO. When Putin gets done with Ukraine, he's going to invade Finland and Sweden. They're provoking him to do this. So the very fact that he says, well, if they join, we're going to put nukes there. Oh, you see? He's just threatened to nuke Finland and Sweden. Because that's the way some of the headlines I saw today.

Russia threatens to nuke Finland. No. Once you follow how the propaganda is being done, you see the pattern. And I predicted this months ago. You're going to see Finland, the next theater in this drama between Russia and NATO. And so if you're in Finland or Sweden, you better speak up

because your countries are going to become targets for nuclear warheads if you allow NATO to push your countries into membership. But it looks certain. Both countries, their parliaments are going to vote in the next probably 60 to 90 days to join NATO. And now, so you see a really a division, a greater division now than ever before. You're seeing lines and sides being drawn here that is basically cutting Europe and Russia right in two. As a result of all this, you know, we, the United States, are on a binge right now trying to grab as many assets of Russians that we can.

And that includes other countries, too. This is a story from Times of Israel. Tax haven Jersey seizes $7 billion in suspected Abramovich-linked assets. And so normally, Jersey is a place where, you know. Tax haven. Yeah, you can hide your money and not have to worry about it anymore. But $7 billion has been seized by the government of Jersey there. So, Rick, are we going to see a lot more of this as we start moving forward?

You know, Doc, I'm not a defender of Roman Abramovich, but he's not accused of any crimes. Right. It's not like he's some criminal that Interpol has been tracking down for 10 years, like Mark Rich. Yes. Now there's a criminal. Interpol never went after Jeffrey Epstein.

They never seized Jeffrey Epstein's mansions, did they? No. So Mr. Abramovich, he's a Russian billionaire. What is his crime? He's Russian. Isn't that kind of racist? It's very racist.

And Jersey, which is in the Channel Islands, it's one of the clean tax havens. Because, I have no problem. I like tax havens. because I have no problem. I like tax havens. I wish I had enough money to hide in a tax haven, but I don't. But if I did, I know the places I would go, okay?

And Jersey is one of them up until now. So they're actually hurting their brand. Jersey is. I'm not talking about New Jersey. We're talking about the- Old Jersey. We're talking about Jersey and the Channel Islands off of Great Britain. Jersey is part of Great Britain, but it has its own governing.

It's not governed by the parliament. Self-governing. Yes yes it's self-governing yet it's part of britain right but they're not governed by the parliament they have their own uh own laws um so the the brand of the channel islands uh it has been it's safe to park your money here. Right. We'll give you privacy. You can bring your wealth here. You can incorporate your companies here. Now that you see... They can take anybody's money.

They can just take it. Not keep you from putting your money there, but if you've got money there, to take it from you. With no due process of law. Right, just because you're Russian. So I don't know if you caught this story on Abramovich today, but for history buffs, if you remember Prince Edward and Wallace Simpson,

you remember that story where he refused the throne of England and everything, and he and Wallace Simpson, they ended up living on the French Riviera for most of their life. They had a mansion on the French Riviera, very nice place. Roman Abramovich recently bought that. Well, French authorities seized that mansion today.

Is that right? Yeah, the $120 million mansion that Prince Edward, the old Prince Edward, not the current Prince Edward, but they seized that property from Abramovich today too. So you're going to see this pattern only because he's Russian. While we're on this topic, for guys in control, I'm going to mix up the sequence here, but we're on this topic of governments just seizing wealth and just doing whatever they want to do.

I want to jump down to number 22. Not 22, excuse me. Number 20. This is Professor Jonathan Turley, his blog. Freedom is tyranny. Let's think about that. Freedom is tyranny. Let's think about that. Freedom is tyranny. That's not, Jonathan Turley is quoting former Obama cabinet official Robert Reich. He says he went full Orwellian in an anti-free speech,

and where he literally laid out that anybody who wants freedom really wants tyranny right he was basically doing this in response to the possibility of elon musk buying twitter buying all of twitter elon mus Musk has put in a bid of $54 billion to purchase Twitter and take it private. Reich is responding to that and says, well, we can't allow that. Why? That would be real free speech.

Anybody could say anything they wanted to. And real free speech is tyranny. Yes. So that's the mindset of the left. But I want to show you what's happening up in Canada. Remember the truckers? Remember the truckers who defied Trudeau's vaccine mandate? Well, the leader of the trucker convoy is still in jail with no bail

he's just sitting there all right i said this is this is in canada where trudeau gives these speeches about how he is fighting for democracy around the world. And Canada stands against Russia and Canada stands for this and that. And Canada is for democracy. And yet, if you are a Canadian trucker and you oppose Trudeau's policies, you're going to rot in jail with no bail and no court case. You're just going to sit there and nobody's going to...

Kind of like the January 6th defendants in Washington that are still locked up without a trial, without bail. I mean, it is the end of democracy. It is the end of the Bill of Rights. So I've got this report from Canadian television. Let's see, it's CTV. So I've got this report from Canadian television. Let's see, it's CTV.

This is on the organizer, Pat King, who is still in jail in Canada. Yeah, during the three weeks that the trucker protest occupied Ottawa, Pat King was one of the most visible faces of that. He was very active on social media, imploring people to do different things. And he was eventually charged by Ottawa police, arrested back in February and sent to jail awaiting a bail hearing. And when his case did come up for a bail application, it was denied. So he has been in jail ever since, 55 days now, or 55 nights anyway, by my count that he has spent in detention here in Ottawa. Now, he hired new lawyers and brought a bail review application, basically an appeal of the decision about releasing him on bail.

And that hearing has been going on over the past two days. And because of a publication ban that the judge placed on this case, which is very routine in bail review hearings, you don't want to taint the pool of potential jurors in a community that might ultimately be deciding the case by having them hear evidence that's presented at the bail hearing. It's fairly standard. So we can't report exactly most of what happened at the bail review hearing. But I can tell you, Angie, it has been twice adjourned. Yesterday, it was adjourned for a very strange reason. Mr. King's lawyer was connected to the proceedings via Zoom video chat. And halfway through the hearing yesterday morning,

his computer was hacked, taken over by malware. And through the courtroom, we could hear this robotic voice, female voice, instructing him, the lawyer, that his computer had been frozen and seized. And he told the court that a message had popped up on screen basically saying that he was locked out of the computer. Now, we've heard a lot about these kind of these malware attacks or ransomware attacks where a piece of viral code gets into your computer and locks it up. And sometimes that demands a ransom payment to release your files. So the judge yesterday immediately adjourned the hearing because the lawyer wasn't able to participate and of course couldn't access possibly some of the records he would need during that hearing.

So very strange development. There's no indication necessarily that this was related to Mr. King's case specifically. We don't know why the person, the people who were doing this did it. However, it brought the thing to a halt yesterday. So we came back this morning and the lawyer reported quite happily that the technical issue had been resolved and none of his files had been compromised. But then another development today and the Crown announced that Mr. King will be charged with new charges. He's already facing a long list of criminal charges including intimidation, mischief, counseling to commit mischief, obstruction. The crown's today saying that the new charges will be another obstruction

charge and also a charge of perjury. That means lying in court or in a court document under oath. It's a very serious charge. Penalties can be quite serious. So that caused the judge to again adjourn the hearing so that Mr. King could speak to his lawyer and prepare a defense for that. He's going to appear in court next week on these new charges. But, Angie, it's just kind of another in this long list of criminal justice action involving many of the organizers that we've seen. We've already heard names of Tamara Leach and

Chris Barber, other people who are front and center in this convoy. But this is continuing apace through the Ottawa court system. Yeah. It was kind of weird how that happened to his lawyer. Zoom call. But it wasn't related to the court hearing. Just coincidence. Once again, a quinky dink. And so it did, however, give the crown an extra day to come up with a whole set of new charges though, didn't it? Well, hey, mischief, that's pretty serious. How long are you locked up without bail or trial for mischief? Well, we know it's quite a while now. It's been, what, two months, three months since the trucker protest? And so he's still there.

But then again, the January 6th folks, they've been in jail for more than a year. So some of them have been. Some of them, we may never know. How do we know if they're dead or alive? How do we know? We don't know. We don't know. We have no idea. And do we know if they're dead or alive? How do we know? We don't know. We don't know. We have no idea.

And nobody really cares, do they? No senators, no congressmen. Nobody's asking any questions. It's just, oh well. In fact, months ago you had some congressmen who tried to go into the jail to see them. And the jail warden blocked them, closed down the jail,

wouldn't even allow them to come in the lobby. And that's so strange because, you know, you had politicians that could go to Guantanamo and see the so-called terrorists that they had locked up

down there. Yeah. But you can't go in to see the January 6th so-called terrorists, which aren't terrorists at all. That's right. Well, hey,

we're at a very important time for religion, Passover and Resurrection Day. And so we want to show you two stories that have to do with Passover, both of them out of Israel, times of Israel. Six extremist Jews arrested for planning animal sacrifice atop temple mount right so it this story earlier today had four of them being arrested but it was updated here late in the afternoon to six so the story is that the you had a group of individuals the media is calling them far right individuals, that attempted to access the Temple Mount to offer an animal sacrifice.

And according to the news sources and everything, there was actually kind of a bounty being put out there, or a reward of like 10,000 shekels, if you could get to the Temple Mount and actually do this and prove that you did it. And do what? And sacrifice a lamb, sacrifice an animal to the Temple Mount and actually do this and prove that you did it. And do what? And sacrifice a lamb, sacrifice an animal on the Temple Mount. And, of course, that would be a great offense to Muslims if that were to occur. So there's this continued prodding, this continued poking of the Muslim community on the Temple Mount for access by various Jewish groups.

Doc, how were these six Jews going to get a goat or lamb to the top of the Temple Mount and kill it? Well, they'd have to be in disguise. And so there's another story that I just happened to catch this as we were looking at this story. This is actually a month old, this story. Israeli Jews dress as Muslims to defy Al-Asqa prayer ban. And so if you've ever been to Israel or anything like that, you can identify some Muslims by the way they dress, some Jews by the way they dress.

They wouldn't dress as ISIS terrorists, would they? Oh, certainly not, Rick. That would be the furthest thing from their mind that anyone would dress up as an ISIS terrorist. But the story here from Al Jazeera says, right-wing Israeli Jews dress as Muslims to enter the al-Asqa compound in efforts to change the status quo

at Islam's third holiest site. And so for those of you who are behind the times here on True News, there are many people who want to see the temple restored on the Temple Mount. It's not going to be restored. If it is, it's a fake temple. But there are those who want a temple there for the purpose of sacrificing animals again. And God tore down that temple in 70 AD, had the whole city plowed under. Jesus had prophesied about it and prophesied not only that would be taken down, but it would not be built back up. He was the new temple. And so anyway, so that continued effort is still there they keep prodding and uh pushing the muslims and

it's going to end in a conflict at some point here so but that's what's happening there as we approach passover resurrection sunday ramadan is also yes underway too. So those are all three coinciding. And that only happens once every century that those three events occur. And so Doc and I are, God willing, we're leaving a week from this Sunday to fly to Jordan. Right.

And we'll be there for two weeks to meet with True News supporters in Jordan, to meet with some Jordanian officials. And we want to see various biblical sites. I plan to baptize a True News fan who gave his life to the Lord Jesus Christ and looking forward to baptizing him in the Jordan River. But, you know, Doc, I was planning, I was hoping that we would have two or three days to go over to Israel. I wanted to return back to Bethlehem and I'd like to visit Nazareth, both in the West Bank.

But weeks ago, as I was praying, I felt like the Holy Spirit's telling me, don't do it. He didn't give me a reason. Just don't do it. Just stay in Jordan. And now as I'm watching the Israeli news and I'm seeing there's a lot of violence going on in Israel. And so this latest thing of trying to, you know, the radical Jews trying to get to the top of the Temple Mount. I mean, I think in the next week or two, you know, I know the Israelis are bracing for a confrontation with

Muslims in the coming two weeks. Ramadan goes until I think early May, late April, early May. So, we will be in Jordan as Ramadan is ending. Right.

Okay. The next story, it's got some connections to all this. This is from the Insurance Journal. Dutch bank ABN Amro apologizes for historical role in slave trade. Now, Bank ABN is one of the biggest banks in the Netherlands. It's very old, centuries old. apologized that their bank financed the slave trade of bringing Africans to North America as slaves. Well, that's a good thing that the bank apologized. But I don't think the bank went far enough in their statement of apology. Right. Because what you had were some white European Gentiles apologizing for what somebody else did

hundreds of years ago. Yes. So let's just take a little deeper look at the history of ABN in Netherlands. I think it's really interesting, Rick, that you just look at all sorts of different information. Normally, I would never think to look in the insurance journal to find a story like this,

but you just keep finding these things. The branch of Amsterdamse Bank, a predecessor of the current ABN Amro Bank, was established especially for the diamond trading sector in 1911. After all, the diamond exchange was just around the corner. The German occupier established the notorious Leroy Lute Bank in 1941, misleadingly named after the Jewish bank Lippmann Rosenthal & Company. The Amsterdam Bank was established in 1871. The first bank director was the Jewish lawyer Frederick Solomon van Nierop. He occupied this position for nearly 50 years.

Van Nierop was politically active for the liberal union. He was also very important to the Jewish community. So the Netherlands Trading Society. And this is Wikipedia. Right. So was a Dutch trading company established in 1824 by King William I of the Netherlands to promote and develop trade, shipping, and agriculture.

And for the next 140 years, the NHM developed a large international branch network and increasingly engaged in banking operations and subsequently would become one of the primary ancestors of ABM Amro. So founded in 1602, this is from jewish currents and granted a 21 year monopoly of dutch trade with asia the dutch east india company had its markets extended on the state in 1621 when it was granted a charter for new netherlands which would eventually become new amsterdam where jews would settle for the first time in North America in 1654. Now, the company can be considered the world's first multinational corporation.

It had tremendous power, not only monopolized trade, but to build forts, wage war, negotiate treaties, mint coins, establish colonies, and imprison or execute convicts. A corporation. A company. A bank. Yes. So also from Jewish currents, going a little bit deeper in this, at first the Jews, mostly

Portuguese, did not invest in the company, writes Lazarus Morris Goldman in The History of the Jews in New Zealand, 1958, as they had no desire to pour money into a company which was in direct competition with them and which showed prejudice against Jews by prohibiting them from becoming directors. However, as the influence and power of the Dutch East India Company grew, Jews gradually brought up its shares

and by the end of the 17th century became the principal stockholders in Holland, controlling a quarter of its stock. And so these companies, the Dutch East India Company, was one of the major companies that worked in the slave trade. And it was principally controlled by Jewish money. So I would like, Doc, for today's Jewish bankers to publicly, and also the ADL, and all of the Jewish organizations, the national and international Zionist organizations, I would like to see the Jewish and Zionist organizations and the international banks first confess to their sins, the sins of their ancestors, and then publicly apologize

to black Americans for what the Jewish ancestors did to their ancestors. Jewish bankers financed the slave trade. It's just that simple. So what you have today is ABN Bank in Netherlands issuing an apology. They're apologizing for for what white Europeans didn't do. White Europeans did not finance the slave trade. We have this political correctness going on in America right now. You're white. You need to renounce your whiteness. Yes. You need to recognize...

Even in churches. It's in churches. It's in schools. It's everywhere. You're white and you're guilty of systemic racism. The very fact that you're white is wrong. This is what you did to the black people. Now, the black people aren't saying it.

You know who's saying this stuff? Guilty white folks. I'll take it even further. Leftist Jews. Doc, the whole wokeism is run by leftist Jews in America. Okay? All this, the critical race theory. Right.

Who's behind critical race theory? It's not black people. No. It's leftist Jews. Yes. You have the attorney general of the United States. His daughter and son-in-law are selling the textbooks to go into the schools to teach critical race theory. Leftist Jews are the ones promoting, telling white American citizens, you ought to be ashamed of being white. You should be ashamed of being white. But it was Jews who financed the trade industry. That's right, the slave trade. It's time for the Jews to confess their sins and ask black Americans to forgive them.

I'll stand by what I just said because I can prove it. I just showed you proof. Who owned the Dutch bank? They were bought out by Jews in the 17th century. Jews in Europe and in America. Yes. Because when they said New Amsterdam, they're talking about the current New York City.

That's right. So if the bank apologized for slave trade, then who controlled the bank when they were financing slave trade? Who did it? I mean, if Jews ran the bank in the 17th century and the slave trade was in the 17th century and the 18th century, then who was running the bank? You can't separate the two. You can't say, well, the Jews owned it, but they didn't have anything to do with the slave trade. They did. And it's easy to prove.

I have books in my library that prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that the slave trade was financed by Jews. Okay. Just confess it. Just confess it it get it out and say it instead of trying to shift the blame yeah you're trying to make white european americans guilty we're not guilty of it your jewish ancestors did it i didn't my ancestors didn't do it your jewish ancestors that owned the banks did it. You're the ones who ought to confess the sin and repent for it. I'm not trying to bash anybody, but all this wokeism, all this guilt complex that's being put on the American people. Well, now that you brought the subject up, let's take a deep look at it. and let's let's just see who did what i'd like to get all of it i slavery racial discrimination segregation it was all disgusting

all wrong all sin in the eyes of the lord politically in america who was in charge of it? The Democratic Party. Yes. So the Democratic Party ought to be repenting and admitting their guilt of what they did. Instead, the leaders of the Democrats are telling white Americans, you did this. No, we didn't. No, we did not. Okay. Let's get it straight and let's get it out on the table. And I think there's a lot of black Americans watching me right now, and you're saying you're absolutely right, Rick. Let's get the truth out on the table, and let's just take a look at who ran the slave trades. It's important to talk about because it could directly impact the way you live and your livelihood.

In California right now, they are actively, actively debating about giving reparations to black Californians. And they're trying to figure out who do they give it to? Do they give it to all black Californians or only those that can prove that they're descendants of slaves? And how do you do that? How do you prove that you're a descendant of a slave that was in captivity or you didn't arrive 20 years later or something like that? The motive is in social justice. The motive is to bankrupt the state of California.

Right. Okay. Let's put some claims on the banks. All right. And, and then let's find out who were the stockholders of those banks during the slave trading years. And let's find out what families are still around today and they have money. You want to play that game? Because they're wanting to take it from you right now. Let's take it from the bankers who financed the slave ships. I mean, why should I have to pay for reparations? I know where my ancestors came from. I can trace it back to Germany. You know, they had to leave because the potatoes weren't growing right. Okay.

And so they came to the U.S. They had nothing to do with the slave trade. But I'm gonna have to pay for the slave trade? Why not make those that paid for the slave trade, I mean benefited from the slave trade, pay the bill? Why not? Doc, all this wokeism and this hatred against white people, it is to deflect the guilt, it is to deflect the responsibility, okay? It's all being financed by jewish political activists they know what they did right they know and so they're they're deflecting responsibility

and guilt and trying to make average white people have their ancestors had nothing to do with the slave trade at all right okay my ancestors weren't bankers financing ships picking up africans and your family didn't have slaves either no so but but this is this is the country that we live in i mean an asian person can stand up and say i'm proud to be asian a hispanic person can stand up and say i'm proud to be hispanic a black person can stand up and say i'm proud to be black but a white person cannot stand up and say, I'm proud to be Hispanic. A black person can stand up and say, I'm proud to be black. But a white person cannot stand up and say, I'm proud to be white. Can they? No, you're not allowed to. You cannot say that. But I think everybody should just be proud of who and what they are. God made you. And just be proud of who you are. I love the differences in people.

That's right. I can't wait to get to Jordan. I love traveling. I love being around different cultures. And, you know, people are awesome everywhere you go. But there are certain leaders in the world that want to differentiate between class and wealth status and everything in order to divide people and benefit that, benefit politically, economically, I think in some ways spiritually.

And so, but that's how they control people is through division. That's right. You got it. Hey, we have a few, we're looking at the time here. I got a few minutes. I'm going to do something I did the other day, which was just read from final day. Wow, did we get an awesome back from Jordan, we are launching a new website. It's going to be rickwiles.com, and it's where I'm going to be teaching the Bible. There's going to be more Bible teaching and less news. Not abolishing news, just bringing it down, okay?

Bible teaching is going to go up. News reporting is going to go down. News reporting is going to go down. Some of you don't like it. Some of you are really excited about it. So I'm just going to talk to the people who are really excited about it. And we'll be giving you more details in the weeks to come.

But I've got to do it. I love teaching the Word of God. And it's where I'm going to go. Whether you want to join me there or not. I might be there by myself, but I'm going to be teaching the Word of God because that's what I want to do. So this one I'm taking from,

let's see, Doc, what page? Two. I think this is a... I'm taking from, let's see, Dockwood page two. I think this is a, yeah, this is from the chapter His Second Coming Shall Be Fiery. Yes. And this section I'm going to be reading from is subtitled Prophecy in Parables.

There's a lot in the Bible about the second coming of Jesus Christ, and it's in the parables. Yes. I don't understand why Bible prophecy teachers don't teach the parables. Well, I do know if they taught the parables, it would contradict what they're teaching about the second coming. It would contradict the rapture, the millennial kingdom, and all that kind of stuff. Jesus gave us a lot of teaching in the parables about the second coming. It would contradict the rapture, the millennial kingdom and all that kind of stuff.

Jesus gave us a lot of teaching in the parables about the second coming. So if you had a copy of Final Day, 10 Characteristics of the Lord's Second Coming, you would be able to read this beginning on page 259. So it says, one of the best places in the Bible to find scriptures about the end of the world are the parables of Jesus. His parables contain valuable insights into what will happen on the final day of humankind. For some unknown reason, many Bible scholars and Bible prophecy teachers ignore the parables when teaching about his second coming and the punishment of the wicked. Could the reason be that their doctrines contradict the parables? The 13th chapter of the gospel, according to St. Matthew, contains seven parables and two explanations. Jesus came out of a house and sat beside the sea, and a great crowd gathered around him to hear his wisdom. He entered a boat, and he made the boat his platform upon which he would stand to teach many things to the people who were standing on the shore.

His first lesson was the parable of the sower. Now, according to St. Mark, Jesus said the parable of the sower is the master key to understanding all other parables. Yes, listen to this scripture here. This is from Mark chapter 4, verse 13. And he said unto them, Know ye not this parable? And how then will ye know all parables? It's the master key, Doc.

Yes. You have to understand the parable of the sower to understand all the other parables. So what do we have in that parable? The sower is Jesus who proclaims the gospel of the kingdom of heaven. Now, contrary to popular evangelical beliefs in America, the seed is not the word of God. Folks, this is going to blow you away. And there's some people who just will argue about me and with me about this, but just be patient with me. It's only in the past couple years when I wrote this book that the Lord opened my eyes to understand this parable. The seed in the parable of the sower are people who hear the gospel.

The field is the world that Jesus sows into the world, people who hear the gospel. Therefore, he expects a harvest from the people he plants in the world. Where did he plant you in his field? Is your life producing the crop desired by Jesus Christ? The condition of your soul's soil determines your willingness and ability to receive, believe, and act on the word of God. Now, after teaching his disciples the parable of the sower without skipping a beat, Jesus immediately taught them

the next parable, the parable of the tares. This parable, however, has noticeable differences from the parable of the sower. In the parable of the tares, there are two people who sow two different types of seed.

The first sower is Jesus. The second sower is Satan. The first group of seed represents the saints of God. The second group of seed represents Christian lookalikes. Jesus identified the first group as wheat and the second group as tares, a noxious weed that mimics wheat. And we have this passage from Matthew chapter 13. It says, good seed in his field. But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat and went his way. But when the blade was sprung up and brought forth fruit, then appeared the tares also.

So the servants of the householder came and said unto him, Sir, didst not thou sow good seed in thy field? From whence then hath it tares? He said unto them, An enemy hath done this. The servants said unto him, Wilt thou then that we go and gather them up? But he said, Nay, lest while ye gather up the tares, ye root up also the wheat with them. Let both grow together until the harvest. And in the time of harvest, I will say to the reapers, Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them. But gather the wheat into my barn. After the crowd departed, Jesus and his disciples entered the nearby house. The puzzled disciples asked Jesus to explain the parable of the tares.

Jesus gave them the explanation. Now, my friends, there are no mysteries about the parable of the tares. Jesus gave them the explanation. Now, my friends, there are no mysteries about the parable's meaning. There can be no differences of opinion in interpreting it without contradicting the Lord's words. Jesus gave us the key to unlocking the code. Using his key, we know these things. We know that the sower of the good seed is Jesus Christ. We know that the field is the world. We know the good seed are the children of the kingdom of heaven. We know the tares are the children of the wicked one, Satan. We also know that the enemy who sowed the tares is Satan. We know that the harvest is the end of the world. We know the reapers are the angels.

We know that Jesus shall be the one who will dispatch his reapers. And we know that the reapers shall gather out of his kingdom all things that offend him and those who do iniquity. And so this list includes the wicked, rebellious, disobedient enemies of the Christian faith and people who place stumbling blocks in the path of souls desiring salvation. We also know the reaper shall toss the tares into a furnace of fire. There shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth among the tares in that furnace of fire. And that's after that,

the righteous shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their father. Doc, who gets taken up first? The tares. The tares are the lookalikes. Yes. The non-Christians. Tares, this is important to understand.

Tares are those who mimic Christianity, mimic Christians. Tares are, in Palestine, there's a weed called Darnell. Darnell looks like wheat, and it grows alongside, right next to the wheat, and it wraps itself around the wheat stalk and the roots and tries to choke out the life of the wheat. If you're not an experienced farmer, you can't distinguish which one is the tare and which one is wheat because they look the same. It's only until you reach the harvest time that an experienced farmer is able to know which one is wheat. And Doc,

you gave us today in Bible study a very interesting point about how the farmer knows it's wheat. And it was the color. Right. As wheat matures, especially certain brands of wheat in the Middle East, as it comes to full maturity, it actually changes color. It takes on a purple hue. Purple, you know, for many cultures, especially in the Middle East, purple is a symbol for royalty. It's as if when the wheat matures, it becomes royal, if you will. Darnell doesn't do that. Darnell still remains the same color as it matures. And that's how you know between the two at the end when they come both to full maturity. It also allows for a different weight to wheat and darnel, so that when they're cut and they're threshed and it's thrown up, the darnel falls one place,

but the royal wheat lands somewhere else. But the idea is that the darnel is taken first. That's right. And bundled and burned. Yes. So the whole thing about left behind, you don't want to be left behind. Actually, you do.

The darnel is picked up first, bundled and burned. Something else about Darnell. The Darnell weed, the actual weed in Palestine, it is, it can be, people will eat it, smoke it, drink it. They'll make brew out of it. It's intoxicating. It will make you drunk. In fact, the word Darnell

is where the English word drunk comes from. Right. So Darnell, fake Christians will make real Christians drunk. How? An enemy, so Darnell. So listen to me. Every church, in every church, in every ministry, in every Christian TV station,

Christian radio station, in every Bible college and every seminary, there are wheat and there are Darnell growing side by side. And you look at them and you go, I don't know which one's which. They all look Christian. They all talk Christian, but the Lord knows. And he says, let them grow. Don you pull them up doc don't you pull up the darnell rick keep your hands off the darnell he said when the harvest time comes the reapers the angels will separate the darnell from the wheat the tares from the wheat The angels know who are the phonies and who are real. The phonies are the ones who cry, Lord, Lord, we prophesied in your name. And he goes, I don't know you. Do I know you? I don't recognize you. Okay. This is, he's talking about the tares. He's talking about the Darnell, but they were growing inside the church the whole time. So when somebody says to you, I don't go to church because it's full of hypocrites and liars and fornicators.

You're absolutely right. They're Darnell. They're tares. And Jesus said, an enemy sowed them in his field. The field is the world and Satan has sown Darnell next to the wheat. The field belongs to Jesus Christ. The harvest is his. He is coming for his wheat. He's coming for his church. But why did the enemy do it? Satan sowed tares for one reason. It was a malicious act of revenge.

Yes. Satan wanted to get revenge against God, our Heavenly Father. Why? Because Lucifer was kicked out of heaven. The first sin was in heaven. And God evicted Lucifer from heaven. He was cast down to earth. And at that point, Lucifer said to himself, what can I do to get revenge on God?

And then he looked at Adam and Eve, and he saw how God loved to walk in the Garden of Eden and fellowship with these two human beings that he made. And Lucifer reasoned in his mind, if I can get Adam and Eve to sin, God will have to evict them from the garden like he evicted me from heaven. And that's how he tempted Eve. And Adam and Eve were evicted from the garden. Ever since, man has been outside of the Garden of Eden, but God desires to bring humanity back to the Garden of Eden. That's new Jerusalem, the new earth that is coming someday. But for right now in this world, there's wheat and there are tares, and they're growing side by side. And the Lord is telling us, don't try to rip up the tares.

Just let them grow. My angels, my reapers will take care of it on judgment day. For now, you bloom, you blossom where I planted you. If you and I, grasp this, if you and I are the seed, I was always taught that the word of God was the seed. But the Lord showed me, Rick, the saints who believe me are the seed and my word is in them. And I cast them into my field. He's casting his seed. His seed is you and me.

His seed is every believer, every saint. He's casting you and me into his field. He owns the field. Where does he cast his seed? Where he needs a harvest. Where does he need a harvest? Where there is darkness, where there is pain, where there is lack, where there is suffering, where there's great need for light. He cast his seed into those places of the world. And he says

to the seed, bloom, grow, produce a harvest 30 fold, 60 fold, a hundred fold. So once you get this concept in your mind, that it's not about us handing out Bibles, all right, speaking the word to people. Hey, here's a Bible. I'm sowing seed. Okay. That's what I was taught. And that, that word's going to produce a harvest. No, he is sowing you and me into his field and saying, if my word is in you, my word will produce a harvest. Yes. But I expect you, your life to be abundant, fruitful. And if it isn't, it will be cut down and tossed into the fire. That's what a farmer does.

That's what an orchardist does with a tree or a plant that doesn't produce fruit. It's good for nothing. So you and I are obligated. Look at the other parables. The parable of the talents. All through the parables, Jesus is teaching us that we are responsible to produce for his kingdom. And so this is the beauty that's in this parable of the sower and the parable of the tares is the wisdom, the understanding that that he has planted us in his field.

He desires you and me to grow and prosper and produce a harvest and he's telling us look the enemy has placed tares there don't don't be upset by it just keep on growing just keep on harvesting i mean just keep on just keep being seen just being seen just produce a harvest for the kingdom i'll the lord, I'll take care of the tares. Don't worry. I'll take care of the Darnell. See, we get a lot of church people that they all get upset about the Darnell. And it's like, we got to pull it.

Well, that's how you get church splits. And that's how you get division and strife. Just let the Darnell grow. The Lord knows who they are and what they are. What he is concerned about is whether you are producing a harvest for his kingdom. And the way you produce a harvest is to let the soil of your heart, the soil of your life needs to be rich so that the word of God is deep into the soil and produces a harvest in you that then overflows into the world where he planted you,

and you bring the blessings of heaven to those who are around you. That's it for today.
