Equinox increases chances of geomagnetic storm from solar eruption this week
Earth could experience a geomagnetic storm on Wednesday (Sept. 25) after the sun lashed out with a huge spout of plasma.

Solar scientists weren’t expecting this eruption …

Rabbi predicted current flooding in Europe due to Democrats’ sin of Noah’s generation
While some areas recover, the storm is heading unabated to Italy. In Italy, the country’s National Civil Protection Service has also issued yellow alerts for nearly 50 regions. Estimated losses from flooding across central Europe are in the billions. It could be that this flooding was predicted by Rabbi Yoel Schwartz, the head of the Sanhedrin’s Noahide Court. On the day after Joe Biden was elected in November 2020, Rabbi Schwartz produced a video in which he commented on the dire results of the Biden victory. “The elections were held on the 17th of Cheshvan,” Rabbi Schwartz said. He noted that according to Jewish tradition, rains that caused the flood in the time of Noah began falling on the 17th of Cheshvan. “The Democrats are spreading the very same sins that forced Noah into the ark,”

Gallant: ‘Hezbollah today is not the same Hezbollah of a week ago’
“A few words about the enemy we face – Hezbollah today is not the same Hezbollah we knew a week ago. [Hezbollah] has suffered a sequence of blows to its command and control, its fighters, and the means to fight. These are all severe blows,” he said. “I trust the IDF and everything it does and we have more strikes ready – we know what to do and how to operate.” He cautioned, “At the same time, remember that Hezbollah is not Hamas – there are similarities but also differences.

Operation Northern Arrows, Elisha the Prophet and Absolute Victory
Operation Northen Arrows could not have had a better name. It reminds us of the story in the Book of Kings about the arrows of Elisha the Prophet, which conveys a crystal-clear message: Not to stop until absolute victory. Why was Elisha so angry with Jehoash? What difference does it make how many times he hit with the arrows? The answer is that there was a basic mistake in the attitude of Jehoash. He believed that it is sufficient to conduct a defensive war against Aram. He thought that it is enough to strike them with a hard blow in order to deter them. He stopped in the middle, and did not continue to defeat the enemy totally.

The Middle East Braces For A Nightmare Scenario As Israel And Hezbollah Head Toward “A Full-Fledged War”
Months of negotiations have proved fruitless, and it appears that we really are about to get a “full-fledged war” in the Middle East.  Sadly, I don’t think that any of the parties involved have really thought this through.  Both sides have been arming themselves to the teeth since the last war ended in 2006, and both sides are willing to literally do whatever it takes to win.  Of course Israel will not just be fighting Hezbollah this time around.  The IDF will be facing an entire alliance of enemies, and in order to win such a conflict the Israelis will be forced to do things that they would rather not do.

What Do They Know? China Instructs Citizens To Leave Israel, The U.S. Sends Troops, And Israel Imposes A “Special Situation On The Home Front”
The situation in the Middle East has started to spiral completely out of control, and it appears that just about everyone is bracing for a major escalation.  The Chinese are telling their citizens to leave Israel, the Biden administration is sending more troops to the region, and the Israeli government has suddenly decided that now is the time to declare a “special situation on the home front” which grants the IDF extensive authority to issue orders to the general public.  Obviously all three have become convinced that something really big is coming.  What do they know that the rest of us do not?
