Russian President Putin said NATO's support for Ukraine is pushing Moscow beyond the point of no return and forcing the Russian Federation to retaliate. First, however, I want to begin with a report from Africa about a strange new disease in Uganda that makes people shake like they are dancing. This is true news from Monday, December 16, 2024. Let's look at this article published by The Sun. New outbreak, hundreds sick with bizarre new dancing disease, which leaves victims shaking uncontrollably it's first time i

heard about it doc yes uh and it's called dinga dinga that's the name in africa it's also known as the dancing disease the son said a mystery illness leaving hundreds of patients shaking uncontrollably has struck Uganda. Local media reports suggest a disease locals are referring to as ding-a-ding-a, translating to shaking like dancing, has already affected about 300 people, mostly women and girls, according to this report. Yes. So the puzzling illness, first reported in Uganda's Bundabugoe district, causes fever and intense body shaking, making it difficult for those affected to walk. One patient shared her harrowing experience with the illness, describing how her body shook uncontrollably despite feeling paralyzed. She said, I felt weak and got paralyzed with my body shaking uncontrollably whenever I tried to walk, she said.

It was very disturbing. I was taken to the hospital for treatment, and thank God I'm now fine. If we're going to have a pandemic, the next one, Rick, this would be an interesting one. Strange. Let's watch this video again. Just look at the way these people, they have an inability to stand up straight and walk. So, obviously, it looks like they're dancing. Right. What it is, Doc, is just Satan has introduced a new sickness.

That's right. That's all it is. That's all it is, folks. It's just Satan has introduced a new sickness. That's right. That's all it is. That's all it is, folks. It's just Satan has introduced a new sickness to the human race. And he can be cast out. Right. Remember the young man that would throw himself in the fire in the gospel? And so this is very similar to that, it looks like. But, hey, this is another disease that we deal with,

and the power of Christ has authority over that disease, too. Satan wants people to be afraid. Oh, no, I don't want to catch ding-a-ding-a. That's what it's about, fear. We're going to put this fear out there on people. This is a strange new disease. No, all disease is from hell. And the name of Christ, the blood of Christ, will defeat every disease. You don't have to be afraid of any of it. RT reporting this headline, West pushing Russia beyond red line.

It's a statement made by Vladimir Putin today. Yes, RT is reporting that the West's support for Ukraine is pushing Russia to the point where it cannot help but retaliate, President Vladimir Putin said while warning the U.S. against deploying medium-range missiles. Speaking at a meeting of top defense ministry officials on Monday, President Putin accused the U.S. of seeking to weaken our country and to inflict a strategic defeat on Russia by continuing to pump a de facto illegitimate ruling regime in Kiev with weapons and money, sending mercenaries and military advisors, thereby encouraging further escalation of the conflict. Now, RT went on to say that Washington is putting fear in Americans by resorting to simple tactics.

President Putin stated, they push us to the red line. We begin to respond and they frighten their population, he added, suggesting that the U.S. used the very same approach during its rivalry with the Soviet Union. Now, the Russian president also slammed the West for what he described as attempts to impose its own rules on the rest of the world while waging hybrid wars against anyone who resists, including Russia. In this vein, NATO is boosting its defense spending and forming strike groups near Russia's borders, he added. The number of American service members in Europe has already exceeded 100,000 troops, he noted. Doc, it's interesting what Vladimir Putin said. Washington is putting fear in Americans by resorting to simple tactics.

They push us, the Russians, to the red line. We begin to respond, and then they frighten their population. So the Russians are seeing the pattern. They will have Zelensky and the Ukrainians strike inside Russia. They'll push the Russians to the breaking point. And then the Russians respond. The Russians respond with some type of heavy attack. Then the Americans to the breaking point. And then the Russians respond. The Russians respond with some type of heavy attack. Then the Americans and the European NATO leaders and the news media tell the American people, look what Russia is doing.

They're going to nuke us. They have to be stopped. So he said, then they frighten their own population. That's exactly what they've been doing to us, Doc. They bring us to the point that we're wondering, are we going to wake up in the morning? I mean, we've been through this over and over for the past two years. But he's saying, what he's saying is, you guys are playing a game that's very dangerous you push you're pushing us to the place that we cannot help but retaliate

so he's sending the message there'll be a day that you play this game and we're going to punch back and then the game's over. Lights are out. Remember last week, I don't know if it was Thursday or Friday, we talked about NATO Chief Mark Rutte. And he said, he gave a speech and he said, the West has got to go on a wartime mindset. Particularly Europe. Europe. Needed to go into total war. Yes. You've got to change your thinking. You've got to go into total war. You've got to change your thinking. You've got to think war.

This is a headline right here. NATO head says, wartime mindset needed. Redirect pensions, health, social security to military spending. Doc, we said this last week. They're telling the people

you've got to pay more taxes. You've got to give up things. We need money for war. And so we didn't see this part in his speech last week. We just, the only part we played was Mr. Rutka Ruta saying we have to get a wartime mentality right a wartime mindset but i want to play a video clip from that same speech that we showed you last

week and this is where he said we're going to have to redirect money from pensions health care and social security what does that mean doc when you say we're going to redirect money money from pensions, health care, and social security. What does that mean, Doc, when you say we're going to redirect money? We're going to take your pension from you. You won't be able to spend money on wine and cheese and spending six weeks on the Amalfi Coast every year.

Well, I think for a lot of these people, Doc, they're just pensioners who are just trying to buy groceries. They're not going. They're not dining in a nice cafe. They're just trying to get from one week to the next. And he's saying, we're going to take money from you.

We're going to take money from your health care. We're going to take money from Social Security. You retirees, we're going to have to take money from Social Security. You retirees, we're going to have to take some of your money. You're going to have to do with less. These are the so-called social Democrats. Yes. Who are saying, for now, we are warmongers.

We're going to war and somebody's got to pay for the war and it's going to be you people that's the way it always is folks here it is in his own words mark ruta saying we're going to take money from social security pensions and health care to pay for world war iii to crush the russians i know spending more on defence means spending less on other priorities. But it's only a little less. On average, European countries easily spend up to a quarter of their national income

on pensions, health and social security systems. We need a small fraction of that money to make our defenses much stronger and to preserve our way of life. Folks, this never ends. You know what? If you didn't have war, you wouldn't be taking money from people.

Right. You'd have more money for the care of people, for health care, for education. But the money of the West goes to war. And it's never ending. They're never satisfied with it, Doc. They need more now. And so they're starting to take the mask off. They're starting to show the people, we're just getting started. This war in Ukraine, this is just the beginning. We spent hundreds of billions of dollars. We're going to spend trillions of dollars to take down Russia. And you're going to have to pay for it. You're going to have to cut back on heat in the wintertime. You're going to have to cut back on the amount of food that you buy

because we need money for the warmongers. Well, and the ultimate end in that, Rick, if you carry that logic out to its natural end, they'll eliminate the pensioners too. Yes. Yes. They don't have to pay out that at all. So the pale horse is riding.

The pale horse and the four horsemen of the apocalypse. The one that we say is the pale horse is not pale. It's green. That's right. It's chloros. Very good. Yes. I think it's the green movement.

Oh, that would fit. Wow. I never thought about that before. Really? I've never told that to you? No, I always associate with biological agents and stuff like that. No, I think it's the Green Movement. Wow, I hadn't thought about that before.

Yes. You killed them with climate change. Yes. Wow, these guys. BBC. German Chancellor Olaf Scholz lost a confidence vote today. This is number 11. And so the German people are fed up with him.

They're going to have snap elections here. And we've got some video here. This is Mr. Schultz going to see German President Frank-Walter Steinmeier to ask him to dissolve the parliament and call for early elections. So it wasn't a good day for Mr. Schultz. Now, what could it be? What has happened, Doc, in Germany that has caused the German people to want to kick this guy out of power? Because Germans have been going full throttle for this war in Ukraine. And people are getting sick of it.

And he's saying to the German people, you're going to have to give up some of your lifestyle to pay for this war in Ukraine and people getting sick of it. And he's saying to the German people, you're going to have to give up some of your lifestyle to pay for this war. Look at the next story. This is Bloomberg. What a coincidence that this story came out on the same day he lost a confidence vote. Germany is unraveling just when Europe needs it the most. Doc, this article, I don't know if you read it. Yeah, I did. This is quite alarming about the state of the German economy.

Now, this article says that Germany is reaching a point of no return. That's Bloomberg's words today. Business leaders know it. The people in the country feel it. But politicians haven't come up with answers yet. That has set Europe's largest economy on a path of decline that threatens to become irreversible. Following five years of stagnation, Germany's economy is now 5% smaller than it would have been if the pre-pandemic growth trend had been maintained.

Now, more worryingly, according to Bloomberg, the estimates are that the bulk of the shortfall will be tough to recover due to structural blows such as the loss of cheap Russian energy. There you go. How did they lose the Russian energy? They blew up the pipeline. And the loss of Volkswagen AG and Mercedes-Benz Group struggling to keep pace with China's auto firms. If they had lower energy costs, they'd be able to sell cheaper cars. Now they can't compete with China.

The decline in national competitiveness means every household is worse off by about $2,600 a year. Okay, so stop right there. The average German household is losing $2,600 a year in purchasing power. So if this continues, Doc, year after year after year, then the middle class of Germany is going to evaporate. It's going to be decimated. And yet you have Mark Rutte saying, we're coming after your pensions. Your health care.

Your health care. Your Social Security. Because we need money for war. Well, it's your war that has caused Germany's economy to collapse. That's right. These people are, Doc, they can't be that stupid. What's wrong with these people? You're right.

They can't be that stupid. It's got with these people? You're right. They can't be that stupid. It's got to be part of their plan to do it. You weren't there, but this would have been, I think, 2020 in Davos. And our team that went to the World Economic Forum with President Trump, we were seated at a Swiss ski chalet. It's where we were staying per instructions from the White House. We didn't get to choose our lodging. The White House said, this is where you're staying, okay?

And so they had us at a ski lodge. And we were in the dining room one night after you know all day at world economic forum hearing you know yval herari and all you know all these people were talking about the future and i brought up at the table because this again 2020 right and we were talking about artificial intelligence had no idea they were going to spring AI on us so quickly. Back then, just four years ago, they were talking about it at World Economic Forum. And I brought up at the table, I said, how do we know that these world leaders haven't been using AI for 10 to 20 years? And I said...

I was there. I had that conversation with you. Were you there at that one? Yes, I was. Okay, I'm sorry. I lose track of sometimes who's in the meetings with me. And so I said, these politicians are making decisions that are so strange, so bizarre, so unreasonable that you can't think anybody who has achieved political power at that level

could be that stupid. So is an AI, you know, an AI God telling them, these are the decisions you need to make to run the world according to the plan that we are implementing. And I have to look at this, Doc, and say, why would Olaf Schultz do things that eventually get him kicked out of office? He turns the people against him. Because AI told him to. Because AI told him what to do. Remember the table next to us commented to us

afterwards? Oh, yes. We never hear things like this. The one gentleman, a Swiss gentleman came over to, as they were leaving his party, probably a party of 12. Right. And he walked over a tall Swiss guy and he said, gentlemen, thank you

for the fascinating dinner talk. I forgot. I forgot the Swiss talk three or four languages. They were listening to all of our conversations in English. But anyhow, I try to

come up with how can these people be doing the things that they do. They have destroyed the German economy. It goes against logic. Doc, it's Germany. It's German industry. Germany and industry are synonymous. I mean, can you imagine a time Volkswagen is on the verge of financial collapse?

BMW. Yeah. They're destroying the German economy. But is that the plan? Yeah. Now, Bloomberg went on to say that Germany doesn't collapse overnight. That's what makes this scenario so absolutely terrifying, gut-wrenchingly terrifying. That's come from Amy Webb, founder and chief executive officer of Future Today Institute,

which advises German companies on strategy. She said, it is a very slow, very protracted decline, not of a company, not of a city, but of an entire country. And Europe gets dragged down with it. Everyone's life, little by little, gets a little bit worse for the rest of their existence. That's what they're doing to us here. Right. We all feel it.

We feel the economic pressure. Death by a thousand cuts. Yes. Each year, we're being squeezed tighter and tighter. The only way to get out of it is through faith in God. Your faith in God. Your faith in God, God can expand your resources. He can expand your revenue

beyond anything that the world is doing. That's why it's so important to be a giver. You can out-squeeze. I mean, you need to out-give the squeezers. I like that. They're squeezing us, so you got to out-give the squeezers. I like that. They're squeezing us, so you've got to out-give them. Out-give them and let God work in your life and bring prosperity, blessing, growth into your life that exceeds the negative forces that they're putting on us through inflation and job loss and so forth.

But we're watching a slow death take down Germany, something I never thought I would see in my lifetime. I never thought I'd read a story like this in Bloomberg, that Germany will not collapse overnight. It's a very slow, protracted decline. And it's like it's a given. Yes, because... It's not like, well, we need to fight this. No, this is going to happen. It's like AI has chosen this path for Germany.

That there's some cabal of people, some ruling class over the Western world saying, we have a grand plan. And this is how we're going to implement our plan. Things that are going to bring great distress and suffering to people. It's hard to believe it's going on, but it really is. It defies logic. It defies rational thinking.

Israel hit Syria relentlessly over the weekend. Here's Times of Israel. Heavy Israeli airstrike reported on Syrian military sites in coastal Tartus region. Why this is important is that the Russian Mediterranean naval base is in Tartus. And my first thought was, did they just blow up Russia's naval base? I've not seen any evidence that they did. Right. But this was a massive explosion.

Like, some people thought it was possibly a tactical nuke. It registered on the Richter scale. That's true. So, Times of Israel reports here that heavy Israeli airstrikes were reported in Syria's coastal Tardis region overnight through Sunday and Monday, allegedly targeting military sites in the latest such raid since rebels brought down Bashar al-Assad's regime last week, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights War Monitor said early Monday that Israel Defense Forces jets had targeted a series of sites, including air defense units and surface-to-surface missile depots, calling the campaign the heaviest strikes in Syria's coastal region since the start of strikes in 2012.

And I think you've seen it. I thought we had some, do we have, yeah, we do. This is, the next one is a daily mail. Israel drops earthquake bomb. Yes. Colossal explosions so big it registered on the Richter scale. Colossal explosions filled the skies in Syria as Israeli strikes are said to have targeted military sites in the heaviest strikes in the area for more than a decade.

A war monitor group said the Israeli strikes had targeted military sites in the Tardis region. I'm going to show you some video here. This is, look at that. It's just massive. You could understand why look at that. It's just massive. You could understand why people thought that nuclear bomb. This is Israel bombing Syria. Yes. Over the weekend, folks.

What is Syria doing to Israel right now? What is Syria doing to Israel right now? Nothing. Israel is destroying Syria. Literally destroying it. Folks, we're watching the destruction of Syria. Ancient biblical Syria.

Israel is destroying Syria. And now occupying parts of Syria. And occupying it. I'm going to show you another video here. This is graphic, folks. Israel bombed a school in Gaza. A school. A school that was also housing homeless Palestinians.

Why are they homeless? Because their homes got bombed earlier this year by Israel. But Israel got those terrorists in there, Rick. Right? At least that's what we're told. This is... Israel is the most evil, destructive force on the planet right now.

Doc, I woke up very early this morning thinking about this stuff. It's all in my mind, very early this morning thinking about this stuff. It's all in my mind, very early. Doc, biblically, I believe we're witnessing the release of Lucifer from the pit. I don't have any other explanation for what's going on. The amount of evil

on the planet right now is beyond comprehension. I've gotten to the place I can't look at this stuff anymore. It troubles me so much. It grieves me so much. There is suffering going on everywhere and nobody's doing anything about it.

Israel's just bombing, killing, maiming, destroying. Nobody does anything about it. It makes me want to throw up. I see the children that have been ripped apart day after day after day after day, and there's no outcry. No. after day and there's no outcry no there's no one with authority to stop it net yahoo is on a killing rampage and if anything he's being encouraged in it yes and i don't have any other explanation other than lucifer has been turned loose from the pit. And he's now roaming the earth and he's deceiving the nations. If there's anything good out of it,

it means that we're extremely close to the second coming of Jesus Christ. That's right. Extremely close. And I don't want to talk about anything else. Where I'm at in my life, I don't want to talk about anything else, where I'm at in my life. I don't want to talk about anything else other than the return of Jesus Christ. I want people to get ready. I want people to repent, believe on the name of Jesus, be baptized in water, and be filled with

the Holy Spirit, and be prepared for the biggest event in the history of the universe, the second coming of Jesus Christ. I've spent enough time of my life showing the people what the devil is doing. I don't want to do it anymore. I want to talk about what Jesus is doing. You can only report on one God. Either you follow the God of this world or you follow the God of heaven. Which one are we reporting on? Mostly we report on the God of this world.

We say, hey, look, look, he's killed more people. He blew up more buildings. He destroyed more cities. And for some people, it's entertainment. But, Doc, it's getting worse. It's getting worse. Every single month, it's worse than it was the previous month. I mean, last weekend,

we watched Biblical Syria disappear. It was wiped out in one weekend. Christians are being persecuted. I read where Al-Qaeda, supported by the United Christians are being persecuted. I read where Al-Qaeda, supported by the United States, went into a monastery that's been there since the beginning of the church,

probably going back to the 3rd or 4th century. And Al-Qaeda went into that monastery and was persecuting the Christians and desecrating the monastery. Why? Because of Israel. Because Israel and the West paid docile and quiet and inept. I'm talking about the organized church. The real church is alive. Very much alive. The real church is, I'm telling you, the real church is going to stand up.

Because those of us who are in the real church we can't take this anymore we can't just sit here anymore and watch this stuff go on and not speak what this world needs to see is a demonstration of the power of Jesus Christ in a way that we haven't seen since he walked

this earth he told his disciples you will do greater works well I want to see it doc earth. He told his disciples, you will do greater works. Amen. Well, I want to see it, Doc. Because he did some great works. But he said, we're going to do greater works. So, let's

get it on. Let's get the show going. Because he's coming back. And if he's coming back, then we have to have that display of greater works. But with greater works, that means a greater conflict in the world, too. Of course. Yes.

But you can either sit here and look at this news, or you can make news. Oh, I like that. And that's what I've been saying to the Lord for days. I'm done reporting the news. I want to make news. That's where I'm at, Doc. How do you make news? You go out and you lead massive numbers of people to Christ. You lay hands on the sick and they recover. You cast out devils. You let signs and wonders and miracles take place in a way that the news media and the political establishment

can't explain it away. You want to report news or make news? I want to make news. I want to make news for my king. And telling people day after day after day, the devil's bad,

the devil's bad. He's badder today than he was yesterday. How does that glorify God? How does that glorify God? How does that glorify him? How does that bring people to Christ? I'm talking myself out of a job. I'm talking myself into a new job.

Okay? The devil is loose on this earth right now. He's loose. And most Christians don't know it. They're not prepared for it. And they wouldn't know what to do with him if they met him. If they had an

encounter with him, they wouldn't know what to do. Okay. So, things are not going to calm down. I know a lot of you are hopeful. President Trump's going to be in office soon, folks. I voted for him. I'm happy he won.

But I'm not delusional. He's not a god. He's not a king. He's a man. He's a man. He doesn't have a magic wand. He can't snap his fingers and make things happen.

He's a man. I'm going to pray for him. I'm going to support him all that I can. But I don't have any delusional hope that he's going to change the tide of where this world is going. This world is going to a rendezvous with Jesus Christ. That's where it's going. It has a date set ahead, a date that only the Father knows,

a date to meet the Maker. He has a controversy with the nations. He's got a controversy with every nation. A lawsuit. A lawsuit with every nation. And there's a court date. And in his court, he's the judge, the prosecutor, the jury. In fact, he is the court.

It's not that he's these things in the court. He is the court. And he has a controversy with the nations. A lawsuit. Offenses against him. You know what he did with Israel, ancient Israel? He subpoenaed the mountains. Yes. He subpoenaed the mountains.

He called them in as witnesses. Do you know this in the Bible? God called the mountains in as witnesses. Do you know this in the Bible? God called the mountains in as witnesses against Israel. Why? Because creation testified that God is good and faithful. And what did the Jews do on those mountains? They worshiped idols. The very beautiful mountains that God gave them full of water and wildlife and flowers and plants and clean springs. He made those mountains to bless them, and they used those mountains to worship their false gods or idols. Micah 6.1.

Micah 6.1. He called in Micah. Read Micahah 6.1. Micah 6.1. He called in Micah, read Micah chapter 6. He called the mountains as witnesses. Well, what if he called the mountains of America as witnesses against America? See, folks, this court trial is coming, and most people are not ready for it. They don't even know about it. And this stuff is getting worse by the day. It's because we're on a rapid acceleration right now to this rendezvous with Jesus Christ. You know, last week, I think it was Thursday, Friday,

I showed you the, I was trying to paint a picture. I was trying to show you what I'm seeing in my spirit about where we are right now. And I showed the water rapids. Right. The rafting on the river. And there was a chute. I was showing that, hey, when you're on the river, and the river is calm. And you're just moving along on the raft.

No problem. And it's calm. And then you start to hear a faint roar. And you know, up ahead are the rapids. But you're not worried right now. Not worried. Because the water's calm. You can hear it.

But as time goes by, the roar becomes louder. And then there's a moment. All of a sudden, the water starts moving quickly. And you're taken into a chute. And the chute, the water chutes, and I'm saying S-C-H-U-T-E. The chute, the water is going into the chute between the rocks. And it's moving quickly now. And you're in that chute for, you know, if you're on a river, it's a brief time.

You go through it quickly, and then suddenly you're in the rapids. I believe America and the world right now is in the chute. And this chute is probably going to last five, six years. You can't get out of the chute. Once you're in the chute, you're in the ride to the end. We're in the chute right now. President Trump can't turn this thing around.

Because the river is just too powerful. The current is too powerful. The cyclical currents are too powerful. The cyclical currents are too powerful. We have an 80-year cycle of war that's in play right now. There are other cycles that are in play. We're in the fourth turning. You can't stop this thing.

Right. And as we saw in that video the other day, saw two boats that went through it, two of them that were prepared. These people paid. Yes. They paid to prepare. One boat made it through.

The other one got flipped upside down. Capsized. Both of them were prepared. That's right. Both of them had everything they needed to get through, but one didn't make it. That's right. And the people, the occupants of that raft were tossed into the water. That's right. And every man, it was every man for himself at that point.

Right. You didn't have anybody else to help you. Everybody was struggling to survive. America and the world, we're in the chute right now. And I think it's going to be a five to six year ride through the chute. What does it mean? Things are going to speed

up. Things are going to be moving faster. It doesn't seem like that way right now. It does. It does, Doc. That's what I'm saying. Like the water is getting a little faster now. That's right.

Time is moving faster. We're headed towards the rapids. And when you get into the rapids, it's going to be extremely turbulent. But we're in the chute and you can't get out of it right now. If you jumped out of the boat, you can't swim it. You just can't do it. Right. In fact, if you try to swim out of it right now. If you jumped out of the boat, you can't swim it. You just can't do it.

Right. In fact, if you try to swim it, it probably causes more harm than good. It's just going to carry you alone all the way down into the Whitewater Rapids. So that's where we're at. I'm thinking it's going to be about five to six years. And then we're in the really violent water in the 2030s. That's where I see this going. So let's get back.

We were talking about World War III. Number 17, this is I-24 News. Prominent Iranian figure issues threat to Qatar in case of U.S. attack. Now listen to this. This is an interesting article here by I-24. Former member of the Iranian delegation for nuclear deal talks, Mohammad Morandi, issued a clear threat to Qatar and an implied threat to the U.S. military should his country's nuclear facilities be attacked. Now, writing on his X account, he later deleted the post, but he was cited by several news outlets. According to the Saudi-linked opposition Iran international website, he said there was a slight problem if the U.S. decides to launch an

attack on Iranian nuclear facilities. The article says the U.S. Al-Yudad Air Base is in tiny Qatar, he wrote. In case of aggression, the natural gas facilities and infrastructure in Qatar will be totally destroyed. Hence, there will be no natural gas from Doha. Hence, there will be no Qatar. Things won't end there either. Recent reports have suggested that Israel is eyeing an opportunity to strike Iran now that Hezbollah has committed to a ceasefire with Israel and the regime of former President Bashar al-Assad has fallen in Syria.

Any Israeli airstrike, however, is expected to come with the blessing, if not participation, of the United States. And so Iran now is threatening other Saudi states, other Middle Eastern states, because of their association with the United States and Israel. Okay, so the President-elect Trump has hinted that he's open to attacking Iran. Right. If you're in Iran, what are you thinking? You're thinking, as soon as this guy gets in office, he's going to bomb us.

I mean, what else are they supposed to think? Right. So they have to ask, do we respond now? And you've got Netanyahu who's bragging, hey, I call Trump every day. Yes. We're talking about war. We're talking about attacking Iran. And so the Iranians have two or three options, Doc. Number one is basically surrender. And I wouldn't

rule this out that they contact the Trump administration before it takes power and simply says, okay, we're out. We will shut down our nuclear research facilities. We just want to live. That would end for a while. Any chance of war. Netanyahu would really have to be creative, come up with a reason to bomb them. Number two, they could just allow the United States and Israel to pound them, blow up everything they've got. Okay. But if I were an Iranian leader, and I'm looking at Syria, and I go, wait a minute.

Assad left. Fell in a day. Fell in a day, and Assad fled. And after he fled, they had been bombing the country for two weeks. Yes. Eliminated any trace of the military. So, if Iran does not fight back, Israel will bomb Iran nonstop for weeks.

For weeks, Doc. If they don't fight back. So what's your third option? Nuclear. You use everything you got. You go, okay, this is it. So those are the three. Either a surrender before war starts.

Okay, we give up. We're not going to do anything. We're going to dismantle everything. That's highly unlikely. Number two, take the beating and know they're going to blow you to smithereens. Number three, prepare to use everything you have. but this what he said was that the US airbase in Qatar will disappear that's right so they threatened the airbase they threatened the natural gas facilities they threatened the infrastructure in Qatar there will be no

natural gas there'll be no cutter And things won't end there either. So it's like we won't stop with cutter either, Rick. So is Donald Trump willing to start his administration with a bloody war in the Middle East for the sake of Israel? Is that how we're going to start? He may have it before he takes office. That's the thing. Yes, but at least he's not blamed for it. The blame would be on Biden.

But I don't think Netanyahu will start a war while Biden's in office. Why? Because he wants the U.S. to fight the war. Yes. They don't want to fight the war. They want the U.S. to fight the war. Yes. Why use your rockets when you can use somebody else's?

And so he knows that the Jewish pressure on Donald Trump will be enormous. And Mr. Trump most likely would respond the way that they want them to respond and would initiate a bombing campaign of Iran. I'm just saying, does Mr. Trump want to start his second term with a horrific bloody war? Does he really want American airmen and Qatar to be blown up? Is that what you want, Mr.

Trump? For Israel? We're going to do this for Israel, right? Why is Iran an enemy to me? Why are they my enemy? Do you go to bed at night afraid that an Iranian is going to kill you tonight? No. Then why are we going to have a war with Iran? They're not my enemy. They're Israel's enemy. Yes, but we're a friend of Israel. We're more than a friend.

Yes. We're Siamese twin. We're a two headed Siamese twin. What Israel does, America does. What America does, Israel does. So does Mr. Trump really want

to start his administration with war? He's going to give up everything else that we could do for America and we're going to blow it all away for war for Israel. And I'm very concerned he would do it.

That's true. You know why? Because Miriam Elderson gave him $100 million for the campaign. Because Netanyahu talks to him every day. Because Lindsey Graham has his ear. All these warmongers that want death and destruction have Donald Trump's ear, even though he himself says, I don't want war. But that's talking about Ukraine.

Yes. But when it comes to Israel, he'll do war. That's right. And Mr. Trump is confident that the United States will crush Iran. I'm not so sure. I don't Iran. I'm not so sure. I don't either. I'm not so sure about it either. How many sleeper cells do they have in the USA?

Right. How many nukes do they already have? We really don't know. We've been told for 10 years they were weeks away from developing a nuclear device. What if they were right 10 years ago? Yes. What if they've been developing nuclear devices this entire time? What if they have suitcase nukes inside the USA?

And they've hinted at secret weapons, too. Now, it might just be hype, but— We don't know. We don't know. Look, our border, we all know the border has been wide open for decades. Right. Are you telling me nobody in the whole world saw it and said, I bet I could get weapons across that border? Well, if tens of thousands of Chinese can walk across the border, don't you think one or two Iranians might have made it across the border, too? Well, Doc, if tens of thousands of Chinese men are coming across the border as members of the PLA, don't you think they're bringing weapons with them?

Who's stopping them? Are they having a weapons check there at the Mexico border? They can walk in with anything. We're not going to know how many weapons are in this country until the war starts. That's when the shock happens when the war starts and you discover how many weapons have been brought into the it's a trojan horse yes it's a trojan horse so there's a very troubling article hey Lee, I hope I don't mess you up here, but I didn't realize in my notes that it's printed on both sides of the paper. And I usually only have one side of each sheet.

But I missed some really important things. Can you go back to number six? There you go. This is Novasti News. Russian Ministry of Defense spoke about preparations for a possible conflict with NATO. Says the activities of the Russian Ministry of Defense are aimed at ensuring full readiness for a possible military conflict with NATO in the next decade. Ten years again.

What's this, 2034, 2035? That's right. It's in that window once again. So it said in this article, the activities of the Ministry of Defense are based on the following key factors. This is ensuring full readiness for any development of the situation in the medium term, including a possible military conflict with NATO and Europe in the next decade, he said at an expanded meeting of the Board of the Ministry of Defense. And so basically what he's saying is that over the next 10 years, you could see a medium-sized conflict in that period of time, even before we get to the big game.

So Russia is thinking in these terms, that they are preparing for war in Europe, by Europe, and the existence of Europe will hang in the balance. And another sign is an announcement that Putin made today. The serial production of their hypersonic missile will begin shortly. They're going to mass produce these hypersonic missiles that they introduced a couple weeks ago. And I believe they're already doing that. The serial production of the Ureshnik intermediate range missile will begin shortly, according to President Putin. He said, as you know, the Ureshnik intermediate range missile will begin shortly, according to President Putin. He said, as you know, the Russian intermediate range missile system has become Russia's newest powerful weapon. It was successfully used in November in response to the strikes in our country's territory. A ballistic missile with a non-nuclear hypersonic payload was used. He said this speaking at the

Russian Defense Ministry's board meeting, in which he also said the serial production of such systems is supposed to be established in shortly in order to ensure the security of Russia and its allies. And so they are ramping up to total war. Yes. They've been in total war, but now they're going even further, Rick. British Prime Minister Keir Starmer, during a video conference of G7 leaders, called for increased pain on Russia. How's it worked out so far? You've only increased Russia's capability. He's not giving up.

As Starmer noted, with Kremlin ruler Putin showing no signs of making concessions. So these guys are saying, Putin's not backing down. We've turned the screws on him. So let's do a little bit more. Let's do some more. maybe he'll back down he said um that they need to support ukraine to be uh it needs to be stepped up to put ukraine in the best possible position for the future you've destroyed the country your policy destroyed ukraine ukraine was not destroyed three years ago yes you forced you were putting pressure on russia years ago, and they got fed up with it, and now they've destroyed Ukraine.

And you idiots are just going to keep this going? Yeah, and you've also destroyed Ukraine's future. They're drafting 18-year-olds now, Rick, in Ukraine. That means that they've eliminated all the fighting men 20 and up. Oh, yes. So where's the future of Ukraine? Well, they're now openly saying a million Ukrainian men have died. Yes.

A million. For what? For what purpose? What did they gain? Nothing. But the warmongers in America gained hundreds of billions of dollars. Yes. And Lindsey Graham is looking, as Chops,, trillions of dollars in resources in Ukraine.

It's about money and power and wealth. And we get to fight the Russians without fighting the Russians. We can pay for the war by stealing Ukraine's resources. And they're going to. Besides, there won't be anybody left in Ukraine to use those resources. They're going to move people in, Rick. Yeah. They'll repopulate the country.

Yes. Bloomberg, Donald Trump said Zelensky should prepare to make a deal to end the war. Now, this is good on the issue of Ukraine. President Trump is trying to end the war. On the issue of Iran, he's willing to start a war uh mr trump said speaking of zolinski he should be prepared to make a deal that's all um gotta be a deal too many people being killed what about in gaza mr president what about in lebanon what about in Syria? Maybe in the very near future, Qatar, Jordan.

I mean, when does it end in the Middle East? When does it stop? When Jesus Christ comes back. When Jesus Christ comes back. God the Father cuts the days short.

God the Father watches the madness of mankind and says, that's it, that's it. Cut. End of time. If we let this go on any longer, no flesh will survive. That's right. That's where it's headed, folks. Ain't no secret rapture in there.

There's no secret rapture where you get taken out and all these other suckers are stuck here dealing with the Antichrist and all this stuff. That's only in fairy tales. Not in the Bible. Now, I want to jump back. I've got six minutes. Number 18. Look here. Israel plans to expand Golan Heights settlements after the fall of Assad.

Golan Heights is Syria. What is Israel doing? Stealing land. Who's going to stop them? Donald Trump said, I recognize Golan as yours. I'm giving it to you. Like he owns it. Like he had the title to it.

Yeah, well, that's the way they're acting. The BBC is reporting that Israel's government has approved a plan to encourage the expansion of settlements in the occupied Golan Heights. Trump Heights. Netanyahu said the move was necessary because a new front had opened up on Israel's border with Syria after the fall of the Assad regime to an Islamist-led rebel alliance. Netanyahu said he wanted to, listen to this, folks, wanted to double the population of the Golan Heights, which Israel seized during the 67 Six-Day War and is considered illegally occupied under international law. Israeli forces moved into a buffer zone separating the Golan Heights from Syria in the days following

Assad's departure, saying the change of control in Damascus meant ceasefire arrangements had collapsed. Okay, now here's what it means, Doc. The word is going out to Jews, free land. Free land. We've stolen more land. Free land. We've stolen more land. Come to Israel and move out to the Golan Heights

and you stake a claim. You've got free land. The view is great. Yes, you've got free land. It used to be Syrian. Now it's Jewish. And it's free to any Jew who wants to come here

and steal some land. That's the truth and it's free to any Jew who wants to come here and steal some land. That's the truth of what's happening. I know people don't want to hear it like that, but that's the truth. What other explanation is it? They stole the land. They're now going to open it up to people, come move, immigrate to Israel, and get the free land. Russia warns Israel against annexing Golan Heights. I was surprised by this talk.

The Deputy Foreign Minister Ryabkov said that, he said, I would like to warn certain hotheads in West Jerusalem against being intoxicated by opportunities. Drunk with opportunities. Drunk with opportunities. Drunk with blood. They're drunk with blood. The Jews are drunk with blood.

So why are the Russians stepping into this? Why is Putin getting involved in the Golan Heights? I mean, obviously Syria, they just lost their primary ally. But I'm surprised that they're speaking up. Well, we did read a week ago that Israel was going to get involved in the Ukraine war. So I guess Putin is letting him know. That's right. They were providing some of their own technology.

We're going to – you want to get involved in Ukraine, we'll get involved in Syria. Blinken, this is NBC. Secretary of State Blinken confirms that the U.S. has direct contact with Al-Qaeda. I guess so. You send them paychecks.

This is just so incredible. We're told... The news is so bizarre. We've just been told Al-Qaeda is now good. Right. It's okay to like Al-Qaeda. You know, we were told the storyline back in 2001, Al-Qaeda... They did 9-11.

They did 9-11. Now Al-Qaeda is good. And you're supposed to clap for them because they took out that nasty Assad. They made him run away. Oh, and they're moderate rebels now, Rick. Yes, they're now moderate. Al-Qaeda lite. And they're open to diversity.

Right. Really, they're pushing this line, Doc. They're pushing this line that they're going to bring diversity to syria yeah sure they are they're going to chop your head three ways chop everybody's head yes they won't discriminate okay now while we're talking about uh ridiculous news let's go through the drone news really quick uh dayton daily news drone shut right patterson airspace down for four hours on Friday. Wright-Patterson Air Force Base. Closed by unidentified drones Friday night.

An Air Force base. The number of systems spotted has fluctuated, and they have ranged in sizes and configurations, said the base spaceman the the base's spokesman robert perteman doc the spokesman for wright patterson air force base said these drones flying over top the base have fluctuated the number of systems spotted have fluctuated, and they've ranged in sizes and configurations. Our team continues to monitor the airspace. We keep watching them. And we're working with local authorities to ensure the safety of our personnel. They're flying over the airspace.

The U.S. Air Force. We're watching them, though. Okay. We're watching. Now,. Okay. We're watching. Now, notice they said they're drones. They just said that they are drones. They're not airplanes. They're not aircraft.

They're not helicopters. They're drones. They admitted they're drones. Why are they flying over an Air Force base? Why are you puzzled about this? You know know the explanation is stranger than the event it is you know you're being hornswung and it's so strange that i can't even get worked up about it okay it's so bizarre it's so strange i don't want to speculate i see

i see other podcasters. They're getting millions of views because they're putting out all kinds of stories about what these things. Oh, they're all full. You know what? They're full of you know what. It's a giant distraction. Yes. It's kabuki theater. It's the clowns in the circus so you can move the elephants off stage.

I will say this, Doc. Whatever it is, it's not good. No. And it's our government that's not good. Are they going to tell us space aliens are here? Big deal. Okay. Bring out the space aliens.

Okay. Whatever. Page 84. Okay. Whatever. big deal okay bring out the space aliens okay whatever page 84 okay whatever are they are you going to tell us the aliens came in for peaceful coexistence but they have viruses we've never been exposed to and the viruses have been turned loose and you're going to have to get the alien virus vaccine. That's right. They even brought the vaccine with them. Folks, we're at the end of time. The devil is loose. There's nothing that's too ridiculous at this point.

Nothing. Just remain on the rock. Remain on the rock of Christ. Don't be flustered. Don't be frightened. Don't be moved. Don't be distracted. Stay on the rock.

The rock is Christ. Satan's going to be doing all kinds of things to frighten people, distract people, cause hysteria. Let him do it. My Christ is coming back and his appearance is going to cause hysteria in the eyes and the minds of Satan. You want to see hysteria? You just wait until Christ comes back. All right. If you're on his side you're not you're not hysterical you're joyful but if you're not on his side you're going to be hysterical so i don't know what they're up to but i will say this before i close

sunday morning Sunday morning I I got out of bed at 4 I sleep in on the weekends I don't get up super early on the weekends and let me think yes it was Sunday morning I got up

4 a.m. and I went to the bathroom and I went back to bed but I looked at my phone to see if hey did the world blow up while we were sleeping just in case just in case

and I I am certain it was the Daily Mail in London Doc I wish I would have kept the article it had a headline, something like, and I'm just, I'm trying to best, you know, to remember it to the best of my recollection,

but it was something like, national security official, unnamed, you know official said the american people are going to have two very difficult weeks we need to prepare for two very difficult weeks and i i was standing there in the dark in my house because i didn't turn on any lights. I'm looking at this going, what in the world is this about? And then I'll read it in the morning when I get up. I went back to bed. I got up in the morning. Doc is gone. That article is gone.

I have searched everywhere for it. It doesn't exist. Obviously, somebody got a call at the newspaper and said, take it down. I don't know how long it was there. I don't know if any of you have it. If you do, send it to me. All I know is the headline said that some official said that the American people are going into two very difficult weeks. So, Doc, we're going into Christmas.

You know what I'm thinking. I know. Okay. Are they about to tell us that the drones are Russian? Are they going to tell us that the Russians have been spraying biological, chemical weapons, viruses? What are they about to tell us? Folks, don't laugh at this drone stuff.

I've got people that are laughing at it going, oh, it's a big joke. No, look, something very evil. Very evil. Very devious. Very evil, very devious is underway. Okay. I don't know what it is.

And nobody else does. does nobody no podcaster i don't care who you you're listening to they don't know okay they're they're making it up to say that they know they just want hits on social media but we're going to find out soon there's going to be a hit all right okay and you need to be prepared for it.
