Fourth of July: Is China about to start WWIII with the USA?

A reader sent me the following today:

4th of July fireworks: World War III with China dead ahead

Admit it, we love war. Marine Corps posters grabbed me as a kid. Trained me in aviation weapons systems. Five years ago I couldn’t resist Erik Sofge’s edgy fast-paced thriller, “China’s Secret War Plan,” … Sofge’s WWIII fast-paced thriller begins on Aug. 9, 2015, 0400, a moment predicted years ago, yet ironically right about the upcoming GOP presidential primary debates. China’s war against “Taiwan starts in the early morning … 1,200 cruise and ballistic missiles rise from heavy vehicles on the Chinese mainland … Taiwan’s modest missile defense network, a scattered deployment of I-Hawk and Patriot interceptors … slams into dozens of incoming warheads … a futile gesture … The mass raid overwhelms the defenses as hundreds of Chinese warheads blast the island’s military bases and airports.”

“Taiwan’s air force is grounded … Taiwanese troops mobilize in downtown Taipei, take up positions on the beaches facing China, just 100 miles to the west. But they know what the world knows: This is no longer Taiwan’s fight. This is a battle between an old superpower and a new one.”

Warrior mind-set sabotages our superpower status and economy

Yes, this is how WWIII starts, between an aging war-lovng America, versus the world’s rapidly emerging superpower, China, with a population that’s one billion larger than America by 2050. …

Powerful new war strategies: Cyberattacks on the 4th of July

Future warriors: New “army” of hackers, tech geeks, game players, search-engine geniuses. Today Chinese compete, using Google, Facebook, X-Box technology, cyberwarriors, trained by war-loving generals. The Pentagon knows: They’ll add trillions to our budgets, taxes and deficits, preparing for future cyberwars, before combat .

Read Sofge’s 2010 “China’s Secret War Plan” thriller, read Singer’s “Ghost Fleet” … see how America could lose WWIII to China … in less than a day. Leaders on both sides have macho egos, love war, make irrational plan, disregard long-term costs.

America’s ego was losing Pentagon war games to China five years ago, says Sofge … Singer now reinforces that threat of a China triggered WWIII. http://www.marketwatch.com/story/4th-of-july-fireworks-world-war-iii-with-china-dead-ahead-2015-07-03?page=2

Of course, despite the fact that Erik Sofge’s book “China’s Secret War Plan” is fiction, many are concerned about China. Many fear that World War III might be a war between the USA and China.

The USA is concerned about the possibility of China being a major military power and enemy (see, for example, US putting more weapons in Europe because of Russia, while also concerned about China’s militarization). Years back, Hillary Clinton as part of the Obama Administration promoted what has been called the Asian ‘pivot’ strategy to shift USA military focus to Asia and away from Europe.

Of course, since USA officials are overlooking key prophecies, they do not realize that the actual power that will defeat the USA militarily will be European (cf. Daniel 11:39) (though there could be some assistance from China and others, like Russia).

China is not the major threat (watch also the video Is China THE Threat to the United States of America?). Yet, because of the perceived threat from China, the USA is setting itself up to being taken over by a rising power in Europe.

Back in the Summer of 2009, I warned:

Barack Obama has pledged increased cooperation with the Europeans. And while cooperation is normally a good thing, this particular cooperation is likely to lead to the rise of the prophesied King of the North, who is to be the final leader of the Beast of Revelation (Revelation 13:1). Unlike previous U.S. administrations, President Obama’s administration has declared that it will encourage and support increases in Europe’s own military, far beyond what Presidents Bush or Clinton were willing to consider. (Thiel B. 2012 and the Rise of the Secret Sect. Nazarene Books, 2009, pp. 131-132, 147)

Has that been happening?

Here is a list of ten steps that the Obama Administration has taken that is leading to the rise of the Beast of the sea, the final King of the North of Bible prophecy that will lead to WWIII:

Encouraged the Final Approval of the Lisbon Treaty. On October 15, 2009 it was reported that Czech President Vaclav Klaus was the lone EU leader still opposed to the Lisbon Treaty (Waterfield B. Czech President Vaclav Klaus ‘to continue’ lone resistance to Lisbon Treaty. Telegraph, October 15, 2009. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/europe/czechrepublic/6329690/Czech-President-Vaclav-Klaus-to-continue-lone-resistance-to-Lisbon-Treaty.html).The Obama administration worked to get the Lisbon Treaty approved as President Obama “wants a strong and united Europe” (Source: Baldwin T, Reid T., Coates S. Obama Administration worried about Cameron effect in Europe. The Times, October 21, 2009. http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/politics/article6883075.ece#cid=OTC-RSS&attr=797093).On October 23, 2009, the USA sent Vice President Joseph Biden to the Czech Republic in order to apply provide secutiry assurances as well as to apply pressure to the Czech government to sign the agreement for a European empire to form (U.S. foreign policy aware of threats – Havel after meeting Biden. CTK, October 23, 2009. http://www.ceskenoviny.cz/news/zpravy/u-s-foreign-policy-aware-of-threats-havel-after-meeting-biden/404375). This could have had some limited influence on some of the Czech leadership.Once its then President Klaus signed it, he announced with disappointment that he had just signed away the sovereignty of the Czech Republic. The Czech Republic was the only hold-out for the agreement and if the Czech Republic had not then signed it, the agreement would have expired. Instead the USA applied pressure to form a more complete European government that will ultimately change and become the Beast power of Revelation 13:1-10 and will take over the USA as prophesied in Daniel 11:39.On November 3, 2009, Agence France Presse (AFP) reported that USA President Barack Obama publicly expressed his support for the Czech President’s signing of the Lisbon Treaty and for now having a ’strengthened’ EU (Obama welcomes ‘strengthened’ EU. AFP, November 3, 2009. http://www.google.com/hostednews/afp/article/ALeqM5hJ8OzJSh0xfKow8z47RGCYQu1nsg).
The European nations became part of the new empire called for the European Union on December 1, 2009 with Herman Von Rompuy as its “first permanent president” (EU Constitution Comes into Force. Voice of America, December 1, 2009. http://www1.voanews.com/english/news/europe/EU-Constitution-78224062-01DEC09-.html).
Encouraged German Funding of Greece. When the new agreement was a risk of falling apart because of problems with Greece. The New York Times reported that on May 10, 2010, President Obama called German Chancellor Merkel and told her that Europe needed an overwhelming financial rescue for the sake of its unity, and she apparently heeded that suggestion. (Erlanger S, Benhold K, Sanger D. Debt Aid Package for Europe Took Nudge From Washington. The New York Times, May 10, 2010. (http://www.nytimes.com/2010/05/11/business/global/11reconstruct.html). This kept the union of Europeans, dominated by Germany, together.On November 10, 2010, EU President Herman van Rompuy declared that in Europe the “time of the homogeneous nation state is over” (Johnson D. The end of Britain as a nation state? Not on your life, Mr Van Rompuy. Daily Mail, November 11, 2010. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/debate/article-1328579/Herman-Van-Rompuy-The-end-Britain-nation-state.html). Full political union is expected in the next decade by many leaders (Willis A. Germany predicts EU ‘political union’ in 10 years. EU Observer, December 13, 2010. http://euobserver.com/9/31485) and some want it much sooner (Czuczka T. Parker B. Merkel Risks EU Clash Over Political Union Push. Blommberg, November 14, 2011. http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2011-11-14/merkel-risks-eu-clash-over-political-union-push-to-end-europe-debt-crisis.html). It has been reported that the “EU is an empire” (Baudet T. The EU is an empire, and empires mean war. NRC Handelsblad, Press Europ, July 9, 2012. http://www.presseurop.eu/en/content/article/2300601-eu-empire-and-empires-mean-war).This is an empire the Barack Obama has been supporting.In December 2010, it was announced USA made “an extra commitment of money” to support the EU and it was also reported that the “United States, has committed 250 billion euros to the EFSF” (European Financial Stability Facility) to support the euro and economic structure of the European Union (US Ready to Back Bigger EU Stability Fund: Official. Reuters, December 1, 2010. http://www.reuters.com/article/2010/12/01/eu-us-efsf-idUSLDE6B023Z20101201). “US believes it’s time Germany stepped up and started acting like a regional and even a global leader” and Barack Obama publicly stated, “The world today does not fear a strong Germany” (DJW. Media roundup: Barack gives Angie a push. The Local, June 8, 2011 http://www.thelocal.de/opinion/20110608-35537.html).
To Rely on Europe’s GPS for Defense. Back in 2009, I warned that the USA was having problems with its GPS system and may decide it needed to rely on Europe’s upcoming Galileo system for its own military defense:

“the Europeans are planning on having their own global positioning system (GPS), called Galileo, available for military applications. This will allow the Europeans to track the world and attack others without relying on the U.S.A.’s GPS. This will be the first time in the 21st century that Europeans will be able to have that type of independent military capability. Furthermore, according to a 2009 report from the U.S. government, the U.S. Air Force may have to start relying on the European Galileo system (at least to a degree) beginning in 2013, as the U.S. GPS capabilities are expected to deteriorate by then (other problems are also appearing in the newer U.S. satellites). Because the Europeans will be able to control Galileo, they will also likely be capable of derailing certain sophisticated U.S. military applications. This will give the Europeans a unique defensive (as well as offensive) capability that no others on the planet will have. (Thiel B. 2012 and the Rise of the Secret Sect. Nazarene Books, 2009, p. 85)

Because of concerns about China, Reuters reported on February 4, 2010, “The U.S. Defense Department is linking its Global Positioning System with Europe’s Galileo, another space-based global navigation satellite system. GPS will feature a new military signal called M-code to boost anti-jamming, facilitate secure access and increase the local signal strength.” (Wolf J. US, wary of China, mulls satellite substitutes. Reuters, February 4, 2010. http://www.reuters.com/article/idUSN0411054720100205).

This linking will essentially guarantee that the USA will have a portion of their military response ability controlled by the Europeans. Galileo initially had critics as there were “early objections from the Americans who thought a rival system to GPS might be used to attack its armed forces” (Amos J. EU awards Galileo satellite-navigation contracts. BBC, Jan 7, 2010. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi /science/nature/8442090.stm).

The “brain” of the Galileo satellite system was shipped to Rome on April 26, 2010 (First EU Navigation Satellite Payload Shipped. Red Orbit, 26 April 2010. http://www.redorbit.com/news/space/1855166/first_eu_ navigation_satellite_payload_shipped/ /science/nature/8442090.stm). On July 31, 2010, it was announced that the USA would, indeed, do this (see USA GPS and EU Galileo linking was expected ). This is all the more astounding because the USA was initially opposed to Europe developing Galileo because it felt this could be used against the USA. Now, the USA is partially-dependent upon it, and in the event of war with Europe, the USA will not be able to effectively communicate or counter-strike because of this.
Pivoting Away from Defending Europe. The ‘pivot’ that the USA and its ally Canada have been doing towards defending Asia as it has been called since at least 2012 (see Canadian and USA Shifting Military Power to Asia), has resulted in a pivot away from Europe. The Germans and others in Europe are realizing that the USA is not intending to defend them as before, hence the USA is pushing them to arm themselves.
Pushing the Europeans to Develop Their Military. In 2012, US Defense Secretary Panetta made public calls for the Europeans to increase their military strength and spending (Carmichael L. Europe Needs To Invest In Defense, Too: U.S.. Defense News, February 4, 2012. http://www.defensenews.com/article/20120204/DEFREG02/302040001/Europe-Needs-Invest-Defense-Too-U-S-?odyssey=mod|newswell|text|FRONTPAGE|p). In the Spring of 2014, the Obama Administration again called for Europe (meaning to a great degree Germany) to increase their military spending (see Obama tries to provide assurances to Europe while pushing for increased European military spending). Increasing military spending will turn out to be the destructive to the USA (cf. Daniel 11:39). This is very dangerous.
Removal of Tanks from Germany. In 2013, the USA removed the last of its tanks from Germany (see There are no longer USA tanks in Germany: Do Americans understand this is a serious risk?). By having no tanks on the ground, this means that the USA will not have the ground-force power to fight against Germany in the event of a war against the USA, should some elements of the US Army attempt to do that.
Agreement to Share Espionage and Techniques. Because of the Snowden leaks in 2013, US President Barack Obama promised to turn over to Germany all of its espionage techiques etc., as well as to reduce espionage against Germany (see Germany most upset by USA espionage). This will give the Germans a major advantage over the USA. If you know how your enemy spies and what it spies on, you can take steps to protect secrets.
Cessation of Chancellor Merkel’s Cellular Telephone Conversations. Barack Obama agreed to no longer allow listening in on the cell phone of German Chancellor Angela Merkel after she complained (Merkel angered by USA allegedly listening in on her cell phone and EU summit to discuss USA spying), and presumably will not do this for her replacement (s). This will reduce the ability of the USA to understand what is going on when Germany is coordinating an attack in the future. While this may not seem to be important, it could prove disastrous.
Allowing the Loss of Crimea. While Barack Obama did make stronger statements than some European leaders related to Crimea (e.g. Russia controls Crimea; Obama talks to Putin–Putin defiant; Obama dissed by many), the reality is that they did not stop Russia. Although Barack Obama and Germany’s Angela Merkel called the annexation “unacceptable” (Merkel, Obama call Crimea grab ‘unacceptable’ Agence France-Presse, March 18, 2014. http://www.globalpost.com/dispatch/news/afp/140318/merkel-obama-call-crimea-grab-unacceptable) it is clear to the Germans that the USA has accepted it (Germany still wants Crimea back). Europe and the Germans are concluding that they will need their own military deterrents to Russia to stop further incursions into territories that they want to be part of the European Union. The Europeans are moving ahead with military technology (see European Technology and the Beast of Revelation ), and this will give them further motivation.
Giving Europeans Control Over More of the USA Military. As far as control of the military, the first non-American, French General Stéphane Abrial became the “Commander of the Allied Command Transformation” of NATO in Europe in September, 2009 (French General Takes Over Key NATO Command In U.S. RTT News, September 10, 2009.http://www.rttnews.com/ArticleView. aspx?Id=1062869; http://www.nato.int/cps/
en/natolive/topics_50114.htm). He was replaced by another French General, Jean-Paul Paloméros. So, this is another part of the military no longer under USA control.In the Summer of 2014, the Obama Administration placed a German general over the entire US Army in Europe (see German general now commands the US Army in Europe).In August 2014, the Obama Administration placed a German general, Brig. Gen. Markus Laubenthal (formerly commander of the 12th Armored Brigade in Amberg and chief of staff for the international security assistance force regional command north in Afghanistan), the chief of staff for U.S. Army Europe. This means that the Europeans will have much more control over the military over the USA than most have imagined.

And the above are steps that are publicly known; watch also the video 10 Steps Obama Has Taken Leading to the Rise of the Beast. These steps will help Europe when it finally decides to start WWIII. There may also be other steps that have not been publicly revealed.

So, while China is not about to start WWIII with the USA, steps have taken place to get the USA closer to the time when WWIII will begin.

This will not end well for the USA. It will LOSE its prized independence. Something to carefully consider on this ‘Independence Day.’
