Iran remains the key focal country for tensions right now;
- Saudi ex-spy chief says 'all options' are open on Iran.
- Pressure Israel, not Iran.
- NATO drilling for nuclear attack on Iran and Syria?
Syria is still developing, though our troops are in position;
- U.S. preparing to shut down embassy in Syria.
In other tensions;
- Bomb attacks leave 2 dead in Pakistan.
- Somalia and African Union troops strike rebel posts in Mogadishu.

In earthquakes of 4.5+ magnitude; 1/19 saw 15, with a 5.9 off the west coast of New Zealand's South Island. 1/20 saw 10, with a 5.5 in the Flores region, Indonesia (Indonesia has some 13,000 islands!). Though there has been an increase in quakes of greater magnitude, I am still seeing that most of these are happening along the "ring of fire" faultline, where they would be expected.
It would be a wonderful thing for this potential war with Iran not to occur. Indeed, a significant number of people seem to think that it is all hype. Yet in praying for wisdom on this, I know that only the Lord's direct intervention could stop it. How we will come to that place of war is most concerning...
This war has been planned for many, many years. It is a conflict, however, that makes no sense. The danger of war escalation with Russia & China, the harm economically due to oil disruption, etc. So what can you do to start such a war? You have to begin it in a way that the world, and the populace of your own nation unconditionally support your decision. In short, you need a Pearl Harbor type of event...
It should be obvious that Israel and the U.S. have been trying to provoke Iran into making some type of blatant first aggression. When that fails, a false-flag terror event will have to be staged as a justification to launch this war, with minimal risk of public and international backlash. This is what happened in WWII. Japan DID NOT strike Pearl Harbor without our provocation! The sanctions being imposed, a shipping blockade and other sanction measures coerced the Japanese into attacking us; yet it was made to seem as if it was all their fault. At least at that time, it was plain that Japan was a heavy-handed, conquering empire. Not at all the case with Iran, in our present day. The sanctions are really not working, so what is next?
