    Our Lady said that Russia would be converted, just as she said that in Portugal the Dogma of the Faith would always be preserved. If that is to be taken as a parameter for not criticizing a country that persecutes the Church, then we would also have to refrain from criticizing one of the most secular countries in Europe.

    As for Iran, formerly Persia, if we are to consider a country’s glorious past and apply it to its current government, then we could not criticize France for being considered the Eldest Daughter of the Church, even though its current government seeks to include abortion in the European Union's charter.

    Just this March, thousands marched against Netanyahu’s policies in Israel. I’m not going to judge the Iranian people, as their civil liberties are being suppressed. However, when it comes to a government that openly declares Israel to be a malignant cancer to be removed and sees Christian proselytism as Western propaganda, it is only reasonable to distinguish the current Ayatollah regime from the government of Cyrus the Great, who indeed granted religious freedom to the people of God—even though he himself was a pagan.

    I feel for the Israeli people because they are the most propagandized on the planet and have been for decades. What happened there with vaccinations during covid was horrible. Not that this takes away from my support for the suffering of everyone in the region. I am on the side of Life. It doesn't surprise me at all that there were forces installed to prevent aid in getting to Assad controlled Syria too. Just like how isis never attacked Israel.

    There is an Orthodox prophecy that once the nuclear sites of Iran are attacked by Israel everything kicks off for WWIII. Which kind of dove tails with a lot of Catholic prophecy.

    I think you misunderstood what I meant. I don’t consider Putin’s regime or the Iranian government to be good or desirable, and certainly not Christian in many respects. However, I don’t believe these nations will disappear from the map, as many of today’s leaders would wish for selfish political, military, and imperialistic reasons. I believe that God has held the Russians and Iranians in His heart since ancient times—not always with righteous governments; in fact, often with bad ones. But I don’t think God will allow Russia to be broken up into a thousand small states or Iran to be divided into little countries absorbed by their neighbors like Iraq or Azerbaijan.

    At this moment, the American Jewish lobby is pressuring Trump to drop a nuclear bomb on Iran and their nuclear facilities according to media reports from Fox which is very close to the Trump administration. I believe that Iran and the Persians will remain whole and survive as a people and at some point in future history return to the Catholic faith, and not be destroyed as the Western and current Israeli media want, not only politically by fall of regime but also ethnically and nationally.

    I believe so. God loves both the Russian and Iranian people. However, it's important to point out that these nations have governments that speak a lot about morality, yet at the same time, they lump us together with the broader Western culture as if we were part of the same garbage heap. If at least they tolerated our missionary activity and united in the defense of truly Christian values—such as the traditional family, the sanctity of life, and the rejection of blasphemous art (at any level)—that would certainly change my opinion of them.

    I say this because, in Brazil, what prevents Lula’s Communist Party from legalizing abortion in all cases is the strong presence of a Protestant Christian caucus in Congress, which many Catholics vote for in order to see values they consider truly Christian defended in a common cause. We are fighting just to have minimal relevance among those who truly believe in God.

    I also believe that God loves the Jewish people and will bring about their conversion at the right time—not through the total destruction of Israel, as the Iranian dictatorship preaches. However, they will come close to perishing, as in 1973. I believe the Jewish people are the prophetic clock of the End Times, and Satan seeks to destroy them because if that were to happen, it would collapse belief in Christ’s return, since the conversion of the people of the Old Covenant is a direct sign that precedes the Second Coming of Christ.

    Poor Tulsi. She didn't sign on for this. She joined Trump because he wanted to keep us out of such conflicts. Shaking my head.

    I'm sick of hearing excuses for those despicable people. Propaganda only covers so much. They have committed atrocities against those Palestinians that would disgust savages. They're a disgrace to the human race. And they can't claim ignorance because their own soldiers posted videos on the internet boasting about it. Very many of them are dual nationals whose first language is not Hebrew. That means they have contacts outside Israel and access to information other than their Government's propaganda. They knew and know what they have become. If people would stop making excuses for them and let them know in no uncertain terms that their game is up and that arrest, trial and punishment await them, they might actually feel a need to start behaving like civilised human beings. Don't be fooled by the tripe about demonstrations against Netanyahu. Polls show that the vast majority of the demonstrators either agree with the treatment of the Palestinians or don't believe it has been harsh enough. Sanctimonious hypocrites outside Israel opposition to Netanyahu as an excuse for vocal or silent assent to genocide are every bit as guilty.

    Bad as the Israelis are, the world powers using them as a proxy are worse. Here's the discussion I referred to earlier. Laurence Wilkerson says that there is a group of about 100 billionaires advising Trump, about a third of them American/Israeli dual citizens. What the world needs to know is the identity of the other two-thirds. The Arctic region is next on the war list. I fear that's what the European elites mean with their 2030 deadline for being ready for war.



    If you back far enough, you'll find a prophecy that can be tweaked to fit any stance you choose to take in the current time. We've seen that with the consecration of Russia. Russia will be converted in God's time. It is already well on the path to conversion. Conversion doesn't mean Russia joining NATO although that seems to be the requirement for some Catholics.

    No one here said that Russia needs to convert to NATO. You should be ashamed of posting something like that. What was pointed out is that Russia is still an entity that upholds the persecution of Catholics.

    By the way, in a small country like Israel, the protest of thousands against the government is significant, especially considering that the enemy country's government compares Israel to a cancer that must be eradicated.

    As for Russia’s future conversion, there is no indication that it is currently taking place. The Russian government has even expressed willingness to stop recognizing the Taliban as a terrorist group—granting legitimacy to a group that treats women worse than animals.

    Moreover, in 2023, Putin opposed the Russian Orthodox Church’s request to ban abortion throughout the country, parroting the same Western propaganda nonsense that abortion restrictions would increase female mortality, as if having it performed in a legalized clinic with sanitized equipment makes it any less grave.

    Russia will convert—because Our Lady of Fatima promised us so, just as she said that this nation would be the instrument of punishment for the world.

    It seems almost impossible for you to understand that acknowledging this does not mean hating the country, but rather recognizing that it plays two specific roles in Catholic prophecy—one good and one bad—just like France. And the good one hasn’t come yet.

    In fact, I’ve posted several times on this forum about St. John Bosco’s prophecy regarding Paris being a sort of Babylon for our times. I’m sure no Catholic believes I hate the French nation because of that or that I fail to see a hopeful prophetic future for it.

    It’s quite simple to understand: if God raised up Russia as an instrument of punishment, it’s because the West had already made itself deserving of it. In the end, if you highlight Russia’s prophetic role in the end times, you are indirectly condemning the Western nations that led to this prophetic scenario. The prophecy of Saint John Bosco says that those who plunged Italy into desolation were its own friends—a clear reference to the European Union, many years before it became what it is today.

    If the Jews get the war they want with Iran (which looks likely now), a country of 90 million people.... there will be millions upon millions of refugees heading west. It seems, for some very strange and unknown reason, this is exactly what the Jews want.
    Europe will be completely overrun
    Apparently they invaded southern Syria again this morning, they hit Hezbollah again and they're hitting the Houtis.

    Apparently, Trump's attack on Iran's nuclear sites has caused minimal damage.

    Has Trump declared 'victory' and will this be the end of US involvement? It seems Iran were informed of the attack and there are reports of preparations for impact. Also, there was time for all Iranian personnel to leave for safety. The flight path of the B2's indicates an intent to not involve any other Middle Eastern or Mediterranean countries.

    Let us hope that things will de-escalate from now on.
