It was reported that earlier this month Israel took part in a military excercise that included a rehersal of more than 100 F-16’s and F-15 fighters in a mock bombing raid over several days. This has been labled a preparation for the inevitable attack on Iran that will ensue and that it is not a matter of “if” Iran will be attacked, but when.

 U.S. Says Israeli Exercise Seemed Directed at Iran

Published: June 20, 2008

WASHINGTON — “Israel carried out a major military exercise earlier this month that American officials say appeared to be a rehearsal for a potential bombing attack on Iran’s nuclear facilities.

Several American officials said the Israeli exercise appeared to be an effort to develop the military’s capacity to carry out long-range strikes and to demonstrate the seriousness with which Israel views Iran’s nuclear program.

More than 100 Israeli F-16 and F-15 fighters participated in the maneuvers, which were carried out over the eastern Mediterranean and over Greece during the first week of June, American officials said.

The exercise also included Israeli helicopters that could be used to rescue downed pilots. The helicopters and refueling tankers flew more than 900 miles, which is about the same distance between Israel and Iran’s uranium enrichment plant at Natanz, American officials said.

Israeli officials declined to discuss the details of the exercise. A spokesman for the Israeli military would say only that the country’s air force “regularly trains for various missions in order to confront and meet the challenges posed by the threats facing Israel.”

But the scope of the Israeli exercise virtually guaranteed that it would be noticed by American and other foreign intelligence agencies. A senior Pentagon official who has been briefed on the exercise, and who spoke on condition of anonymity because of the political delicacy of the matter, said the exercise appeared to serve multiple purposes.

One Israeli goal, the Pentagon official said, was to practice flight tactics, aerial refueling and all other details of a possible strike against Iran’s nuclear installations and its long-range conventional missiles.”

It was also reported that when this attack comes, Iran will no doubt retaliate and for the U.S. this means an immediate response in defense of Israel, which, in all the planning and preparation from the Bush Administration and their continuous visits to Israel and the Israeli Prime Minister’s visits to Washington, this is all part of the big plan for the expansion of the war in middle-east to include Iran, which as has been pointed out in the Book “The King of Terror” this is part of taking the “Middle Zone” which is the all important task of securing this part of the world while “following in the footsteps of the Mongols.”

After this soon to come attack on Iran the price of oil will go through the roof and gasoline will spike, as was reported on the NBC news, to between 8 and 12 dollars a gallon. Imagine what this will do to the American economy now as it teeters percariously as it is. All this leading to the nuclear destruction of New York City in this scenario and timeline of the age Nostradamus foresaw and the bible prophets warned.

Yesterday the former chief weapons inspector in Iraq, Scott Ritter, announced that, as  described in our book, the United States is preparing for an attack on Iran following in the footsteps of the Mongols. This also, as described in the book, will give Bush the unprecedented authority to stay in power foregoing the election and transfer of power to another president as he will assume executive control through the Shadow Government and reign as a true King of Terror.

Ritter says White House preparing for war in Iran April 4, 2008 By ED BARNA Herald Correspondent

MIDDLEBURY — Scott Ritter, former head of weapons inspection in Iraq who protested there were no weapons of mass destruction to justify an invasion, believes the same is true for Iran. But there is an 80 percent chance of war with Iran, he told about 200 people Wednesday at Middlebury College as part of a series of talks facilitated by the Vermont Peace and Justice Center. The pattern of preparations for such a conflict has been steadily developing and involves Congress as well as the Bush-Cheney administration, he said. People ask him if he feels vindicated by the absence of WMDs in Iraq, he said, but “there isn’t any vindication in being right about this one.” A war with Iran would hasten the ongoing decline of American standing in the world, and afterward Russia and China would be ready to take advantage of the resulting power vacuum, he said. Among the war clouds Ritter cited were: Preemptive strikes against the two groups most likely to erupt if the United States invaded Iran, Hezbollah (unsuccessfully attacked by Israel) and Moqtada al-Sadr’s Mahdi Army (unsuccessfully attacked in Basra by Iraq’s central government). Ritter predicted a similarly disappointing showing if the American forces attacked Iran, a country 2-1/2 times as large and populous as Iraq that is much more unified culturally and did not have its army destroyed in a previous war with the United States. Recent visits to Middle Eastern allies by high officials, ostensibly for other purposes, but really to prepare them for the effects of such a war. The appearance of the “miracle laptop,” as Ritter called it, a thousand pages of technical documents supposedly from a stolen Iranian computer, which dubiously had just the sort of information the administration needed to support a hard-line stand on Iran. Congressional supplementary funding for more “bunker-busting” bombs, with a contract completion deadline of April. Congressional supplementary funding for the extra bombers to carry those bombs, with a contract completion date of April. Cheney’s order to send a third aircraft carrier battle group close to the Persian Gulf, a necessary bolstering of forces for a war with Iran. Admiral William Fallon, the first admiral to be head of Central Command, said that level of naval forces was unnecessary and blocked the move. Ritter said that was “a heroic thing.” The main target of Ritter’s criticisms was an American public that couldn’t pass a test on the Constitution and understands little of international history and politics, and refuses to believe the life of an Iraqi is worth as much as the life of an American. He began his talk, not by trumpeting the danger of war, but by talking about spring, and the birds that will soon have babies in their nests. Mother birds will forage, come to the nests, see open mouths begging for food, and puke into each one, he said. Just so, Ritter said, people sit in front of their televisions every night and wait to be stuffed with mushy phrases like “The surge has been successful” and “Baghdad is 70 percent secure” and “We have apparently won the war.” “The reality of Iraq is that it is a broken nation,” Ritter said. Groups like the Kurds and Shia are not unified groups, there is already a civil war, and most of the opposition to our presence comes from our being the invaders, he said. “It is far too easy to look for people to blame,” he said. For instance, “we blame the media, but the media simply give us what we’re asking for.” Everyone needs to start understanding and caring about their Constitutional rights, and everyone needs to start finding the facts for themselves and taking strong individual stands, Ritter said. If you do nothing but take in what the TV and newspapers tell you, “all you’re going to get in return is puke.”

In the scenario that is described in the book “King of Terror” as prophesied by Nostradamus, it is the “great new city” i.e. New York City that is attacked again, this time with a nuclear weapon as the prophecy in century 6 quatrain 97 describes:

“At forty-five degrees the sky will burn,
Fire to approach the great new city:

In an instant a great scattered flame will leap up,
When one will want to demand proof of the Normans.”

In the original French Nostradamus words this as “five and forty degrees”:

“Cinq et quarante degrés ciel brûlera,
Feu approcher de la grand cité neuve,”

New York City sits at 40 degrees and roughly 5′ north latitude. But if you were to take this as just “45″ the UN complex is located on the 45th st. block of the city as New York is laid out with streets and Avenues running north and south and east and west just like the latitude and longitude of the globe.

 It has been the UN that has been the target in the past and has been specifically warned by Osama Bin Laden as it has exported a double standard against Muslims throughout the world.

The King of Terror, George W. Bush, will seize upon the opportunity when it arrives to implement his administrations plans for the “shadow government” to come out of the shadows. This, as explained in the book, is the “militarization” of the U.S. with the government being controlled by the executive branch to “protect” the country. This will be accomplished with this next attack against the UN and New York City in fulfillment of the prophecies of Nostradamus.

In the section of the book entitled “Shadow Government” it is referenced through a report from the BBC on March 1 2002, that the Bush Administration set up what they called a “Shadow Government” after the 9/11 attacks.

Washington sets up shadow government
BBC Friday, 1 March, 2002, 12:13 GMT
Contingency plan was originated by Bush’s predecessors 

“An emergency parallel government has been set up in the United States to try to ensure that federal rule could continue in the event of a catastrophic attack… 

.. only the executive branch is represented in the full-time shadow administration. Other branches - such as Congress and the judiciary - have separate continuity plans but do not maintain a 24-hour presence in fortified facilities.” 

This report was included in the first edition of “The King of Terror” in 2003 and subsequent editions and was shown as the foundation for Bush to implement Executive control and rein as a dictator King, foregoing any transfer of power through an election period and  fulfilling Nostradamus’ precise vision. Last year the plan for the implementation of the Shadow Government has been updated and revised to include more Executive powers of control as it had been mainly through the Department of Homeland Security.

 Bush Changes Continuity Plan

Administration, Not DHS, Would Run Shadow Government 

By  Spencer S. Hsu

Washington Post Staff Writer
Thursday, May 10, 2007; Page A12

“Bush administration officials said the directive formalizes a shift of authority away from the  Department of Homeland Security to the White House.

Under an executive order dating to the  Reagan Administration, responsibility for coordinating, implementing and exercising such plans was originally charged to the  Federal Emergency Management Agency and later DHS, the Congressional Research Service noted in a 2005 report on a pending DHS reorganization.

The new directive gives the job of coordinating policy to the president’s assistant for homeland security and counterterrorism — Frances Fragos Townsend, who will assume the title of national continuity coordinator — in consultation with Bush’s national security adviser, Stephen J. Hadley, with the support of the White House’s Homeland Security Council staff.”

This plan is for the President and his immediate staff to have complete control of the shadow government in the event of a “national catastrophe” which, in the Directive, is, “any incident, regardless of location, that results in extraordinary levels of mass casualties, damage, or disruption severely affecting the U.S. population, infrastructure, environment, economy, or government functions.” 

The recognition and declaration of such a catastrophe is accomplished through the executive office of the President. Meaning, the President can declare and put into operation the shadow government at his own discretion whenever he deems it appropriate.

The scenario as we have always given it, is that the U.S. would be hit with another attack, this time in the form of a nuclear weapon, and Bush would declare a national emergency and take complete control and rule as a dictator and a king. Now with the implementation of this Directive giving Bush even more Executive control from the White House down through all governmental agencies right down to the local police of every city and township and tribal government, this is all done in the guise of “protecting” the nation, just as it had been used as an excuse by the Chancellor of Germany in the 1930’s after the Reichstag had been burned to the ground.

And why would these types of provisions be put into operation now? As it is very easy for anyone with any foresight to see, this is all being orchestrated for the last push towards militarizing this nation, going forward with the plan for a takeover of the “middle zone” via the middle east and locking down the American civil liberties so the King of Terror can continue to terrorize the world and its people. Bush is at this moment, in the middle east visiting Israel for the very first time in both terms as president, to encourage the middle east peace process? No, to meet with Israeli military planners for their planned strike against Iran with U.S. military equipment. If the U.S. were to strike Iran and its nuclear facilities, Russia would defend Iran. But if Israel attacks, they are just trying to defend themselves in their own region by a perceived threat. After this, an attack on American soil would be viewed as a reason to defend ourselves, Bush to implement the shadow government, suspend the elections and attack Iran going forward down through the valley of the Shadow of Death.

The beginning of the year 2008 with the focus on the political pundits shadowing the reality of the events that are transpiring everyday is another example of the American system of popular diversion. January is the Month named after the Roman god Janus, the two-faced god of doorways. This will be the month of the reality of the two-faced policy of the King of Terror  coming to the surface as Bush heads to the Middle-East opening the door to a new aggressive stance towards Iran.

President Bush prepared for his first major trip to the Middle East. While scheduled to meet the leaders of Israel, Egypt, Saudi Arabia and other regional nations Jan. 9-16, Bush is expected to try to bolster the troubled peace process between Israel and the Palestinians but is also likely to seek backing for U.S. concerns about Iran. (A.P. 1/7/08) 

The “Peace Process” that Bush is supposedly trying to bolster is in reality a push for American allies in the Middle-East to support the coming aggression against Iran.

As was explained before in the posts of last month, Nostradamus focuses on the planet Mars in conjunction with his prophecy for the coming of the King of Terror as Mars is the Roman god of War. Since November, Mars has been in what is referred to as an “apparent retrograde”, meaning the planet appears to be going backwards in relation to its normal east to west direction in the night sky. This represents the apparent back peddling that has been done since the report came out last November that Iran had shut down its nuclear weapons program. But this retrograde of Mars ends this month as the report now has just come out that there has been a military confrontation in the Strait of Hormuz between three U.S. Navy ships and Iranian gunboats.

WASHINGTON - Iranian boats harassed and provoked three American Navy ships in the strategic Strait of Hormuz, threatening to explode the vessels, U.S. officials said Monday, calling it the most serious such incident in years. 

The incident raised new tensions between Washington and Tehran as President Bush prepared for his first major trip to the Middle East. (ibid.) 

As is explained in our book, George Bush is the King of Terror and will continue to reign supreme as a king because of the upcoming planned attack against Iran and the third attack against New York City. March is the month named after Mars and was said to be named  because the Romans would begin their yearly military campaigns at this time in the spring, so this period was named after the god of War. As this incident will be used as another excuse to “pick a fight” so to speak, the month of March was used as the time to begin the invasion and war with Iraq in 2003. Now watch the double standards as the doors open to more and continuing war.

Since the 1^st Gulf War of 1991 and the U.S. invasion of 2003, the United States has continued with a policy of rampant and unrestrained pummeling of the country of Iraq with bombs, rockets, artillery, mortars, bullets and missiles that are case hardened with Depleted Uranium that have created a ecological and human crisis of unparalleled levels.

DIRTY BOMBS
“The U.S. began dropping two-and-a-half-ton GBU-28 “dense metal” penetrators from B-52s and B-1 Stealth bombers. Exploding deep underground, the bomb’s explosive energy “coupled” with bedrock under immense pressure from the weight bearing down on it. The resulting seismic shock wave could crush an underground bunker - or the internal organs of anyone caught in the “overpressure” from a blast wave 20-times stronger than the bomb blast itself. [ucsusa.org May/05]

In order to penetrate rock and concrete, each “Great Big Uranium” bomb is shaped like a spear tipped with tons of radioactive Uranium-238 nearly twice as dense as lead. Using nuclear waste left over from making atomic bombs and reactor fuel, the amount of radioactive Depleted Uranium (DU) particles spread by each GBU “dirty bomb” eclipsed any terrorist’s fantasy - one-and-a-half metric tons of aerosolized particles capable of causing genetic mutations and death for the next four billion years! [Le Monde March 2002]

The similarities of BLU and GBU detonations to nuclear blasts was not lost on U.S. war planners, who realized that the blast effects and resulting radioactive fallout from conventional bunker-busters could mask the detonation of so-called “low-yield” B61-11 tactical nuclear bombs.”

In reality, the U.S. has used more nuclear material and has dumped Depleted Uranium in the thousands of tons on Iraq resulting in a range of destruction that far outweighs the nuclear disaster of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

DIRTY WAR
“In the heart of Baghdad, Christian Science Monitor reporter Scott Peterson waved a radiation-detecting wand over a small pile of jet-black dirt near a group of playing children - only to jump back in alarm when the instrument registered 1,900 times the normal background radiation. [Christian Science Monitor May 15/03; The Daily Star (Beirut) Sept 14/04; WSWS May 10/05]

More than 200 uranium-tipped Tomahawk cruise missiles were fired from U.S. ships and submarines during the first bombardment on Iraq. Hundreds more would follow. In addition, more than 3,000 bombs were dropped on metropolitan Baghdad - and the homes of six million people.

Nearly a quarter-million bombs were dropped by allied forces during Desert Storm. With DU dust blowing everywhere, and U.S. airstrikes continuing at least weekly for another 16 years, the legacy of permanent low-level radioactivity spread throughout Iraq can only be called genocide. [deoxy.org]

Dr. Asaf Durakovic, a Colonel in the U.S. Army Medical Corps, was put in charge of Nuclear Medicine Service at the Department of Veterans Affairs Medical Center. After finding unusually high radiation levels in American veterans, as well as birth defects in the offspring of their spouses, he had became convinced that not only that was DU slowly killing them, but also that it was causing changes in the human gene pool that would ravage future generations in the USA and Iraq. Asked to stop his research by the U.S. government, he refused.

In 2006, soil samples in Iraq showed radiation levels 17-times higher than any readings that might be remotely acceptable - threatening, in , Dr. Durakovic’s words, environmental “catastrophe.” This DU doctor believes that radioactive dust contamination from the 1991 war may have exposed the entire Gulf population.” [Depleted Uranium Radioactive Contamination In Iraq Aug/06]

The radioactive contamination through the use of these weapons throughout Iraq and Afghanistan can be viewed truly as an act of indiscriminate genocide that effect not only humans but animals as well.  Through scientific studies it was found that the environmental toll is  even more dramatic than first thought as it now continues to effect the animal populations throughout these areas as well, just as it does the human. The U.S. aggressions using the excuse of deposing Saddam Hussein (Mabus) and regime change has fulfilled this particular prophecy of Nostradamus to a tee. The U.S. has nuked Iraq and contaminated this country and its people for generations to come.

“Mabus will soon die, after provoking a horrible destruction of men and animals. Then suddenly vengeance will come. Because of endless speeches force will rule; they will know thirst, hunger, when the comet crosses the sky.”

                                (Century II Q62)

It has now been the one year anniversary for the death of Mabus who we have been proclaiming as Saddam Hussein since 1991, and as my other post points out, we have been saying that “Mabus” is Saddam and NO ONE ELSE. Saddam’s execution/assassination coincided perfectly with the run of Comet McNaught just days after Saddam was killed and even as John Hogue, the acclaimed Nostradamus expert himself testifies to:

” Many of you already know that for 20 years in counting I have declared Saddam Hussein to be my personal choice as the man who would be Nostradamus’ Mabus. In brief, for the uninitiated, the reason being that the law of anagram allows one to reverse in lower case the name “mabus” into “subam.” You can reverse again any letters, such as getting “d” out of “b” and get “sudam.” Phonetics play in the rules. If a similar vowel can be derived, for instance changing “u” to the long, Arabic “a”–sounding like “uhh” or “awh”= (Suh’dam, Sawh’dam) you get “Sadam.” In anagramming, you can add or subtract redundant letters. In this case, add a “d” and you get: “Saddam.”

Saddam Hussein was executed by hanging at dawn of 30 December (Iraqi Time) 2006. Roughly a week later, Comet McNaught passing close to the sun, suddenly and unexpectedly began bursting into a brightness that by the middle of January 2007 competed with the sunset’s afterglow. The comet core and tail rivaled the brightness of the planet Venus. I bear personal witness to its brightness, as I had the opportunity to see it, on 11 January, on a rare clear winter evening in the Pacific Northwest floating above a stand of pine trees. It rivaled the afterglow of sunset behind my house. A few days later it appeared over evening skies of the Southern Hemisphere stretching an arched, hoary rooster comet tail millions of miles into space that drew a line in the sky of comet gas and dust reminiscent of a ghostly ribbon of aurora lights.

The synchronicity of Saddam’s death and the emerging comet engendered an avalanche of letters from all over the world asking if this comet augured Saddam Hussein as “Mabus.” Moreover, did his death and the comet’s transit mean we were about the endure a widening war in the Middle East, if not the onset of the 25 or 27 year conflict of the Third Antichrist in just a few short days or months.

I can say this. Never in over three decades of prophecy watching have I seen a better heavenly portend match the death of a key figure–a prime candidate for the Third Antichrist–as catalyst for the next world war.”

We had written to Mr. Hogue throughout the years hammering on the fact that Mabus is Saddam and no other, but not only this fact, but that the idea of the “Third Antichrist” really has nothing to do with the person of Saddam Hussein as “Mabus”. Everyone gets hung up on the whole “Antichrist” issue seeing the antichrist as a single individual who appears as the antithesis of Jesus Christ.

In our book we are able to identify who the antichrist is without any doubt or speculation. This is because we go by what the bible actually tells us, as it is the bible where we get the phrase “antichrist”. The bible tells us in the 1^st Letter of John (the 1^st, 2^nd & 3^rd Letters of John are the only places in the bible that use the phrase “antichrist”) that the antichrist is not a person who is to appear in the future and be the antithesis of Christ, but that the antichrist is MANY people and that they were around at the time the apostle John was writing his Epistles warning the early Christian churches in Asia Minor of the coming of these groups of people who were “Anti-Christ”.

John defines who the antichrist is:

“Children, it is the last hour and as you have heard that antichrist is coming, so NOW many antichrists have come…

Who is the liar but he who denies that Jesus is the Christ? This is the

antichrist, he who denies the Father and the Son.”

I John 2:18-22

There are many places in our book that explains in very great detail what this means, but for this post I shall address it briefly. The word “Christ” was not Jesus’ last name. It wasn’t Joseph, Mary and Jesus Christ of 628 Bethlehem Lane…the word “Christ” is a title pertaining to the lineage of David the bible proclaims Jesus is from. “Christ” means “anointed” or specifically, “The Anointed Son of David”. For Jesus to be a “Christ” he must be descended from David according to the flesh. (Romans 1:3) Jesus’ mother Mary was a kinswoman of Elizabeth of the tribe of Levi, not of Judah and was not a descendant of David and God is not a descendant of David as God is not a descendant of anyone for that matter.  So the only other person in the New Testament that accredits to being a descendant of David other than Jesus is Joseph:

“And Joseph also went up from Galilee, from the city of Nazareth, to Judea, to the City of David, which is called Bethlehem, because he was of the house and lineage of David.”

Luke 2:4

So the antichrists are those who deny the physical flesh lineage of David. In this case, the antichrists were those who denied (and still deny to this day) that Jesus was born of the physical line of David through his biological father Joseph, but attribute his lineage to that of God Himself! The “Christians” of today say Joseph had nothing to do with the birth of Jesus and that God was the physical father of Jesus. If this is so, than Jesus cannot be the Christ as God is not a descendant of David. The antichrist are they who deny the physical lineage of David and there were many around at the time the apostles were still alive as ancient paganism crept into the early Christian churches and these ones began to deify Jesus as a god, making Jesus another in their pantheon of pagan gods.

Today the antichrist is again identified and in our book we are able to show who Nostradamus sees as the Third Antichrist…or the third “manifestation” of the spirit of antichrist. The antichrist has again appeared according to the Second Coming of Christ and those that stand waiting to again deny this lineage of David and those who come in support of this Divine Plan.

Now that the one year anniversary of the death of Mabus has arrived and the one year anniversary of the comet Mcnaught that was the second brightest comet in over 70 years is this the time that will coincide with the revenge of Saddam? It has just been reported that the year 2007 was the deadliest for the American Troops since the beginning of the war. Will there be another event in the next week or so that will define this one year anniversary of the death of Mabus and the run of the comet as Nostradamus foresaw?

As Mars is now making its closest approach since 2003 and will not be this close again until 2017, at the same time the earth is passing through the Geminid meteor debris trail producing a spectacular meteor shower. Tonight, the 14^th of December, 2007 is supposed to be the peak night of viewing of this meteor shower. In the chapter of the book entitled “500 Years Hence” it is explained that the birth date of Nostradamus is December 14^th according to the Julian Calendar, and is December 24-26 according to the Gregorian Calendar as 10 days were added and subsequently 1 day every 128 years. In the book the conclusion is drawn that because of the tremendous earthquake that occurred in Bam, Iran on December 26^th, 2003 that claimed over 50,000 people and then the Asian Tsunami that occurred on the very same day exactly one year later with over 100,000 dead, there was a connection all of which occurred during the year ending the 500 year anniversary of Nostradamus’ birthday. There are pages of scientific evidence that conclude that both the Asian Tsunami and the earthquake in Iran were both caused by meteor strikes occurring during the same time period of the year exactly one year apart. This would lend to the idea that the earth is going through a debris trail that could possibly be the remnant of the Geminid trail which was formed by what is now known to be the asteroid 3200 Phaethon. Interestingly, the first recorded sighting of this particular meteor shower was at the same time as the proclamation of Baha’u'llah…

Origin Of Geminid

“The appearance of this meteor shower seems to have been fairly sudden during the 1860s. It was first noted in 1862, when R. P. Greg (Manchester, England) found a radiant in the constellation Gemini for the period of December 10-12. B. V. Marsh and A. C. Twining (United States) independently discovered the activity around the same time. A. S. Herschel noted meteors emanating from Gemini during December 12/13, 1863, as well as three fireballs from near the same radiant in 1863 and 1864. During the 1870s, observations of the Geminids became more numerous as astronomers realized a new annual shower was active.”

Sky & Telescope

Another interesting point is that Mars is at this same time also moving through the constellation of Gemini and as Gemini is known as the “twin” in the book in the chapter already referred to we say that the meteor strikes causing the Iran and Asian disasters were the “Twin” catastrophes that occurred at the beginning and end of the 500^th anniversary of the year of Nostradamus’ birthday.

Are we about to see another such great catastrophe in the coming days as this meteor shower started with the proclamation of the Second Coming of Christ Baha’u'llah and now is peaking on the birthday of the one who made it his goal to promote this one’s identity? Read this book to find out the details and make your conclusions yourself.

As Saddam Hussein was walking up the gallows to his death, the great prophecy of Nostradamus was being fulfilled as the brightest comet in over 40 years filled the sky, Comet McNaught, which flared out of obscurity immediately after Saddam was killed at the end of December 2006.

Mabus will soon die, then will come,
A horrible destruction of people and animals,
At once one will see vengeance,
One hundred powers, thirst, famine, when the comet shall run.

(Century II 62)

“Comet McNaught, also known as the “Great Comet of 2007″ and given the designation C/2006 P1, is a non-periodic comet discovered on August 7, 2006 [The 10^th anniversary of the passing of the Establisher of the Baha’i Faith, Dr. Leland Jensen] by British-Australian astronomer Robert H. McNaught. It was the brightest comet in over 40 years, and was easily visible to the naked eye for observers in January and February 2007.With an estimated peak magnitude of -6.0, the comet was the second brightest since 1935. Around perihelion on January 12, it was visible worldwide in broad daylight”.

This astronomical event coupled at the same time with the death of Saddam shows that Saddam Hussein is unquestionably “Mabus” whom Nostradamus sees in his vision.

Since 1991, Neal Chase and the Baha’is Under the Provisions of the Covenant have been harping on the fact that one person and one person only could fulfill the prophecy of Nostradamus for the coming of “Mabus.” Unlike other Nostradamus interpreters such as John Hogue who leave all bets open guessing that it “might” be Saddam Hussein but also might be others who are also in the running, so to speak, for over fifteen years Mr. Chase has been hammering and harping and warning that Mabus is and can only be Saddam Hussein and that because of this fact and the stark warnings of Nostradamus and the bible that it would be a great scenario of Saddam Hussein, another war with Iraq and New York City that would be continually attacked. It was Mr. Chase who alone made these connections, who wrote press releases for years warning the world of these upcoming catastrophes who was on television year after year and who gave the exact date of September 11 for an attack on New York City by Muslim terrorists years before it happened in press releases that were distributed to the national media.
