"The WAR on error"
B16 in Turkey
li Bardakoglu, 54, is Turkey's highest Muslim dignitary. Der Spiegel spoke to him about Pope Benedict XVI's visit to Turkey next week and the reactions to the pontiff's Regensburg speech, widely noted for its criticism of Islam.

Although the CDU campaigned on a platform of radical reforms in last year's election, at its annual conference in Dresden next week it is likely to call for the repeal of a central element of labour-market reform. The CDU and (even more) its Bavarian sister party, the Christian Social Union (CSU), have never been like, say, Britain's Conservatives. Both favour the market economy, but both are also rooted in Catholic doctrine that emphasises social justice. They also stand for cultural conservatism and stability, constituting a “power to protect slowness."
Some suggest that it is even harder to run the CDU/CSU than to run the grand coalition—and are floating the radical idea of ditching the CSU, which is both sceptical over reform and a fierce defender of parochial Bavarian interests (one of its leaders recently accused the SPD of having “neoliberal tendencies”).
[WAR: If the CSU is ditched - then I bet they'll expand their party outside of Bavaria. Then what HWA mentioned in 1948 would almost be prophetic: "And soon after the San Francisco Conference there sprang up in Europe a new political party - the Christian Socialist movement. It is injecting the religious issue into politics. And there can be no doubt, in the minds of those who know the true conditions...that the movement was secretly started by Catholics. At the psychological time, the pope will step in and officially lead it. Thru this political movement, he will unify 10 nations in Europe!"
Now, while I disagree with the 10 "nations" (and the infamous "nations, or groups of nations" repeated ad naseum throughout the COG), it could very well be 10 "regions" or "states" within what used to be the Holy Roman Empire. For example, here is what is stated in The London Times "Complete History of the World": "The Holy Roman Empire was a decentralized confederal system. ... The Empire's division into 10 'Circles' improved its administration..." ("The Holy Roman Empire", p.212-3). See also "Imperial Circle", "Prince-elector", "States of Germany".
After I read HWA's '48 article back in '94, and realizing the importance of the Christian Social Union of Bavaria, is when I just knew that Ratzinger had to be the next (and last) pope. A Bavarian pope! You couldn't find a more perfect pope to support the "Christian Socialist movement" - which is based on Catholic Social Doctrines!]
"Germany - a giant in chains"
[WAR: In last Sunday's WAR, was the article "Merkel as a world star" that stated: "For most of the six decades since the second world war, it has been a giant in chains. The desire to tie it down was one of the chief motives of the German and French politicians who founded what has become the European Union." A few days later, I remembered one of the few confrontations (didn't have actual "fights") I had growing up - and ironically it was with a big/tall German kid (Mueller).
It happened during soccer practice one day when I was in the 8th grade. I was a very aggressive soccer player, so I ended up tripping him (forgot if it was on accident or purpose) and he went flying. So this big ol' Assyrian jumped-up and started running straight for this scrawny little Israelite. I wasn't sure what to do, so I lunged toward him and bear-hugged him with all my might, and hung on until the coach broke us up. I guess I instinctively knew that as long as I had him restrained, he couldn't do any damage to me.
And in the same way, this is what happened to Germany after WW2. It was restrained from doing any future "damage" by being chained and tied-down through various European and international organizations, treaties and obligations (such as being forced to give up the d-mark for the euro). And because of this current reality, and in order for Germany to fulfill its prophetic destiny, it has to be set free from its bondage - which ipso facto means that the European Union and euro must collapse (along with NATO, the UN, and other NWO structures - which are just the House of Israel's means of control)!!
So all the speculation and assumptions about the EU being the Beast, the revived Holy Roman Empire, and the King of the North are just that - speculation and assumptions, which are not based on current geopolitical reality, or even a correct reading of history. Our thinking must not be limited/restrained by speculation and assumptions made during a different era of geopolitical reality and on Allied-only versions of history. We've got to think outside-the-box and have the spirit lead us to the truth of the matter - become like little children that are willing to learn, and don't have everything all figured-out already.]
Chancellor Angela Merkel said Saturday that Germany is committed to making NATO's mission in Afghanistan a success, stressing the significance of Berlin's deployment in the country's north and of civilian rebuilding.
Southern Afghanistan is far from having been pacified. German troops have picked a relatively comfortable spot for themselves in the north of the country. Because they have avoided deadly fighting, they have been labeled "cowards" by the Americans and Brits. But are they?
Vice President Dick Cheney arrived Saturday in Saudi Arabia for talks with King Abdullah. The vice president's visit one day visit to the kingdom comes at a time of upheaval across the region and as regional diplomatic efforts to calm several potentially explosive situations have foundered.
Iran's Ambassador to Russia denied that Tehran seeks the physical destruction of the Israeli regime. "When we speak about Zionism, we do not mean the physical elimination of this regime." The physical elimination of this regime would entail "very unfavorable consequences for the whole region," he said. The Iranian government and people "are not in any way against Judaism or Jewish rights," these rights can be implemented all over the world.
This extensive study of the Christian mythology that animated medieval Europe shows that this mythology is primarily of pagan inspiration and that very little of it comes from the Bible.
Paranoid Protestant Prophecy Propaganda...
I know that I will go to heaven one day, either by the Rapture or by death. These are just two different forms of transportation, like taking a taxi or a bus.
A boy has been born in Chile with a foetus in his stomach in what doctors said was a rare case of "foetus in fetu" in which one twin becomes trapped inside another during pregnancy and continues to grow inside it. It had limbs and a partially developed spinal cord but no head and stood no chance of survival, doctors said.
[WAR: Just one more proof that we are not individually created by God, but are just randomly begotten and born - subjected to the laws 'n flaws of nature.]
