And now for a World Government?

This one showed up on the Drudge Report today (and caught my attention for no acutely apparent reason): And now for a World Government (Financial Times) by Gideon Rachman.

I have never believed that there is a secret United Nations plot to take over the US. I have never seen black helicopters hovering in the sky above Montana. But, for the first time in my life, I think the formation of some sort of world government is plausible.

A “world government” would involve much more than co-operation between nations. It would be an entity with state-like characteristics, backed by a body of laws. The European Union has already set up a continental government for 27 countries, which could be a model. The EU has a supreme court, a currency, thousands of pages of law, a large civil service and the ability to deploy military force.

So could the European model go global? There are three reasons for thinking that it might. READ MORE….

Crash course in Phariseeism / Rabbinic Orthodoxy

In the following video, Nehemia Gordon (a Karaite Hakham) gives his perspective on Phariseeism in conjunction with a few teachings of Yeshua (Jesus). Gordon holds a Master’s degree in Biblical Studies from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. He translated texts contained in the “Dead Sea Scrolls Reader”, was an assistant on the Dead Sea Scrolls Publication project coordinated by Emanuel Tov, and worked as a researcher on the Hebrew University Bible Project under the auspices of Shemaryahu Talmon. He has unique credibility in this area because of his rabbinic upbringing, a lifestyle he rejected later in life.

If the video freezes at any point, you can drag the slider forward and backward to cause Google to reinitialize the video. There may be a buffering problem for some watchers.

Study Shows 20 Percent of Spaniards Have Jewish Ancestors

(IsraelNN.com) Twenty percent of the population of the Iberian Peninsula has Sephardic Jewish ancestry and 11 percent have Arab or Berber ancestors, geneticists have found. The genetic signatures of people in Spain and Portugal provide “new and explicit evidence of the mass conversions of Sephardic Jews and Muslims to Catholicism in the 15th and 16th centuries,” following the expulsion of the Jews and Muslims from that country.

The research was carried out by a team of geneticists and published in a report by the American Journal of Human Genetics and the International Herald Tribune (IHT).

The Alhambra Decree
The findings have a bearing on the question of how many Jews converted to Christianity and how many chose to remain Jewish and be expelled, when King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella signed the Alhambra Decree ordering Jews out of Spain. READ MORE…

I have not read any of the finer details of the actual study, but I suspect the Y-Chromosomal markers they are pin-pointing are directly related to the House of Judah (the Jews) and not reflecting the House of Joseph (Ephraim) which has a much larger representation in the Spanish population than just 20 percent.

Modern-day financial prophet or just common sense warnings?

Watch how the peers of Peter Schiff (president of Euro Pacific Capital) laugh and mock him in the following video cuts as he warns America about what is coming (warnings made in 2006/2007).

In the current financial/economic climate, the warnings of Schiff seem much more laudable and graspable. Notice how the mockery has been reduced significantly in the following more recent broadcasts.

One of the main traits of End-Time Babylon is her consumerism. What is the main thing Schiff is encouraging American citizens to stop doing? Start saving and STOP CONSUMING!!

Neo-Nazism on the rise in Germany?

German Police Arrest More Than 40 At Neo-Nazi March - Several hundred mainly left-wing sympathisers, some chanting `Nazis out` and `Get Lost`, tried to confront some 700 neo-Nazis. … German police arrested more than 40 demonstrators who were trying to block a march organised by far-right activists in eastern Berlin on Saturday, a police spokesman said.
Several hundred mainly left-wing sympathisers, some chanting “Nazis out” and “Get Lost”, tried to confront some 700 neo-Nazis. The neo-Nazis were clad in black and carried black and red banners with the slogans “Young people need a future”.

This is what surprises me. It wasn’t the Neo-Nazi marchers who were arrested. It was those protesting and blocking the Neo-Nazis who were actually put in jail. This is a nation that triggered a war that ended up claiming 70 million lives because of Nazism, but somehow Nazism is given activist freedom and protection in a march (see article: WWII Casualties). That is truly perplexing and disconcerting!
