Gas pipeline to connect Israel and Europe

Gas pipeline to connect Israel and Europe

An agreement has been reached to lay a gas pipeline connecting Israel and European countries, Hadashot TV reported on Saturday night.

The agreement has been signed by Israel, Greece, Italy and Cyprus, with the backing of the European Union, according to the report.

The pipeline would be the world's longest and deepest underground gas pipeline, 2,000 kilometers long and 3.5 kilometers deep, and will connect these four countries and allow Israel to export gas to the Balkans and Central Europe.

Hadashot TV reported that the EU agreed to invest $100 million in a feasibility study before the agreement was reached. Now, after two years of intensive contacts, the parties have reached an agreement that will be submitted this week for consideration by the member states. It is estimated that work on the gas pipeline will begin within a few months.

Within five years, the gas is supposed to flow through the pipeline and bring huge sums of money into Israel. Among the significant clauses in the agreement is priority for Israel and Cyprus in exporting gas to the European market, which is considered the largest and most significant market in which gas prices are double than what they are in Israel.

Police fire tear gas and water cannons to disperse protesters in Paris

Police fire tear gas and water cannons to disperse protesters in Paris

PARIS -- French police fired tear gas and water cannons to disperse demonstrators in Paris on Saturday as thousands gathered in the capital and staged road blockades across the nation to vent anger against rising fuel taxes and Emmanuel Macron's presidency.

Thousands of police were deployed nationwide to contain the deadly demonstrations that started as protests against tax but morphed into a rebuke of Macron and the perceived elitism of France's ruling class. Two people have been killed since November 17 in protest-related tragedies.

Tense clashes on the Champs-Elysees on Saturday saw police face off with demonstrators who burned plywood, wielded placards reading "Death to Taxes" and upturned a large vehicle. Authorities said that 5,000 protesters flooded the Champs-Elysees at the demonstration's peak. There were nearly 81,000 protesters in total nationwide.

The famed avenue was speckled from the early morning in neon, owing to the color of the vests the myriad self-styled "yellow jacket" protesters don. French drivers are required to keep neon security vests in their vehicles, and now, the vests have become a sort of uniform for the movement against higher fuel costs, BBC News reported.

Over the past 12 months, the cost of diesel, which is the most common type of fuel used in vehicles in France, has spiked by around 23 percent to an average of €1.51 -- the equivalent of $1.71 a liter, according to the BBC.

This year, Macron's government raised its hydrocarbon tax on diesel by 7.6 cents per liter, while the tax on petrol climbed 3.9 cents. An additional increase set to go into effect on January 1 would see an increase of 6.5 cents for diesel and 2.9 cents for petrol.

Macron has insisted that the fuel tax rises are a necessary pain to reduce France's dependence on fossil fuels and fund renewable energy investments, which is a cornerstone of his reforms of the nation.

The unrest, however, is proving a major challenge for embattled Macron, who's suffering in the polls and is the focus of rage for the demonstrators, who accuse the pro-business centrist of indifference to the struggles of ordinary French.

Authorities are struggling because the movement has no clear leader and has attracted a motley group of people with broadly varying demands.

At least eight people, including two police officers, were injured in the day of unrest Saturday across France, according to authorities. Police said that dozens of protesters were arrested or detained in Paris for "throwing projectiles," among other acts.

"It's going to trigger a civil war and me, like most other citizens, we're all ready," said Benjamin Vrignaud, a 21-year-old protester from Chartres.

Demonstrators in Paris faced metal barriers and a perimeter enforced by police that sought to stop them from getting to buildings such as the prime minister's official residence, according to the BBC.

Last weekend, about 280,000 people took part in demonstrations at over 2,000 locations across France. Two people died, more than 600 were injured and at least 50 were arrested, the BBC reported.

Rapture Ready - Pre-tribulation rapture resource for the end times
End Time News, Events, Prophecy & Doctrine of the Pre-Tribulation Rapture of the Church

The Pre-Tribulation Rapture of the Church will occur when Jesus returns to earth right before the seven-year Tribulation. All those who are not ready will be left behind. This website is the most complete resource for understanding end times prophecies and news relating to the last days.

You will find current news reports, articles, and biblically-based information with the emphasis on prophecy. For those who remain and must endure the Tribulation, we have information on how to become Tribulation saints. RaptureReady.com features articles from prophetic end times writers that explain what will happen during the Tribulation, as well as articles on a variety of topics related to the books in the Bible. Our ultimate goal is to teach visitors about the saving grace that comes when you allow Jesus Christ to become your personal Savior.


Rapture Index - Latest activity indicators of when the Rapture might occur.

Rapture Ready Index

Rapture Index: 180

Change from last update:unch
Updated: Nov 26, 2018


100 and Below: Slow prophetic activity
100 to 130: Moderate prophetic activity
130 to 160: Heavy prophetic activity
Above 160: Fasten your seat belts

The Purpose For This Index
The Rapture Index has two functions: one is to factor together a number of related end time components into a cohesive indicator, and the other is to standardize those components to eliminate the wide variance that currently exists with prophecy reporting
You could say the Rapture index is a Dow Jones Industrial Average of end time activity, but I think it would be better if you viewed it as prophetic speedometer. The higher the number, the faster we're moving towards the occurrence of pre-tribulation rapture.

Ezekiel 38:19
“For in My jealousy and in the fire of My wrath I have spoken: ‘Surely in that day there shall be a great earthquake in the land of Israel,

Luke 21:
11 “And there will be great earthquakes in various places, and famines and pestilences; and there will be fearful sights and great signs from heaven.
21 “Then those in Judea must flee to the mountains...........

Powerful Indonesia Earthquake Kills at Least 82

JAKARTA, Indonesia — The popular Indonesian resort island of Lombok, already under a weeklong state of emergency, was struck once again on Sunday by a powerful earthquake.
At least 82 people were killed in the quake, which was also felt on Bali, just to the west, the country’s National Disaster Management Board said.

Most of the people killed in the magnitude-7.0 quake, which was first announced as a magnitude 6.8 and then revised upward, were from the northern and western regions of Lombok.

The quake occurred in the early evening. Minutes later, a magnitude-5.6 aftershock jolted the region again. It was the first of a wave of about a dozen aftershocks. Thousands fled from their homes to gather in emergency shelters in open spaces, the disaster agency said.

Libya interested in Russia’s military training

Libya interested in Russia’s military training

MOSCOW - The Libyan parliament is interested in utilising Russian expertise in training military personnel to ensure the country’s security and stability, President of the House of Representatives of Libya Aguila Saleh said Thursday. “We are interested in Russia to offer its expertise in military training, in other words, everything that would provide security to our country. I will be honest, we need Russia. We need Russia to be involved in rebuilding our country, including in such sectors as oil, railroads and all the essential projects,” Saleh said during his meeting with speaker of the Russian parliament’s lower chamber Vyacheslav Volodin.

Saleh also noted the Libyan interest in developing bilateral relations with Moscow, as well as increasing Russia’s role in the region.

Libya has been gripped by conflict since 2011, when the country’s longtime leader, Muammar Gaddafi, was overthrown and killed. The eastern part of the crisis-torn state is governed by its parliament, with headquarters in the city of Tobruk. The parliament is backed by the Libyan National Army. At the same time, the UN-backed Government of National Accord (GNA), headed by Prime Minister Fayez Sarraj, operates in the country’s west and is headquartered in Tripoli.

Russia’s role in Libya more nuanced than it seems

Russia’s role in Libya more nuanced than it seems

Dubai: In October this year, British intelligence services reportedly warned Prime Minister Theresa May that Russia was moving troops and missiles into Libya, saying President Vladimir Putin wanted to make Libya “his new Syria”.

It was also claimed that by having a military foothold in the North African country, Putin wants to impose a stranglehold on the Western powers.

The UK’s mass selling tabloid, The Sun, claimed “dozens” of officers from Russia’s GRU military intelligence service as well as its Spetznaz special forces were operating on the ground in eastern Libya, initially carrying out training and liaison roles.

There are reported to be two Russian military bases in Tobruk and Benghazi, both key coastal cities in the east, where military strongman Khalifa Haftar’s Libyan National Army holds sway.

The Western media and politicians are seeing the alleged Russian military presence in Libya mainly from the perspective of the apparent threat it poses to shipping in the western Mediterranean. But observers have cautioned against jumping to such conclusions.

“The notion that Russia wants to exploit Libya solely as a bulwark against the ‘West’ remains unsubstantiated,” said Iliasse Sdiqui, an analyst at Whispering Bell, a risk management consultancy. “Naturally, the deeper Western involvement — especially from Washington — is in Libya, the more entrenched Russian interests will be. Moscow, however, has other priorities for now, including economic and security interests. Moscow would be more interested in reviving its arms sales and combating terrorism, a shared goal with Cairo, than simply taking control of smuggling routes to exert pressure on Europe, as it has been claimed by some media outlets.”

It is no secret that Russia has shown a willingness to play a greater role in post-Gaddafi Libya. Moscow’s political and economic links with Tripoli are historical; until the 2011 revolution that toppled Muammar Gaddafi’s regime, Russia sold arms worth billions to Libya and its state oil companies were deeply involved with their Libyan counterparts.

Also, Russia has not been coy about its support for Haftar; Moscow has hosted him as almost a head of state. Haftar has held meetings with key Russian officials, including Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov and Defence Minister Sergei Shoigu.

However, unlike its single-minded military backing for the regime of Bashar Al Assad in Syria, Moscow has adopted a more nuanced approach in Libya. It has been conciliatory towards the UN-backed government in Tripoli, and has expressed support to UN-supported talks in Libya.

“Moscow is indeed on a balancing act when it comes to Libya. On the defence side, it appears to be closer to the LNA in the East. However, Moscow is also careful to avoid an excessive shift towards the East and therefore some influential Russian stakeholders are reported to maintain close ties to factions in the West, and Tripoli in particular,” said Sdiqui.

Arguably, if Moscow wants to ensure its long-term interests in Libya (as seems to be the case), it will gain more by backing a coalition government that includes both the GNA and the LNA, rather than exclusively supporting an LNA (Haftar) takeover. The US is uneasy about growing Russian involvement in Libya. But, just like in Syria, Washington has shown it is not willing to invest enough in ensuring Libya’s long-term stability.

I believe that just shows how impatient the Jews are concerning their Messiah coming, since the Malachi prophecy made over 2000yrs ago....

According to Malachi 4. Elijah is supposed to come to the Jews first, then the Messiah?.

WEB)
Malachi 4:
1"For behold! the day comes, it burns as a furnace; and all the proud, and all who work wickedness, will be stubble; and the day that comes will burn them up," says Yahweh of Armies, "that it shall leave them neither root nor branch. 2But to you who fear my name shall the sun of righteousness arise with healing in its wings. You will go out, and leap like calves of the stall. 3You shall tread down the wicked; for they will be ashes under the soles of your feet in the day that I make," says Yahweh of Armies.
4"Remember the law of Moses my servant, which I commanded to him in Horeb for all Israel, even statutes and ordinances.

5Behold! I will send you Elijah the prophet before the great and terrible day of Yahweh comes. 6He will turn the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the hearts of the children to their fathers, lest I come and strike the earth with a curse."

The End Times Forecaster: The “Messiah” Will Arrive Before April 9, 2019!


The “Messiah” will arrive before April 9, 2019! That is the claim being made by a famous Jewish rabbi.

Rabbi Fish related a story that is just now being told within Haredi circles in Israel. A young Torah scholar from outside of Israel was hosted for the Sabbath a few weeks ago at the house of a follower of Rabbi Kanievsky. The young man visited Kanievsky during the Sabbath. He asked the rabbi if he should apply for Israeli citizenship in order to vote for the Haredi party in the Israeli elections being held on April 9.

“There is no need,” Rabbi Kanievsky answered. “The Messiah will already be here before the elections.”
