Israel Nuclear Weapon
 
Iran hit Israel’s Dimona Nuclear Site. This is a massive development in this war. Iran just showed Iran and the United States that they have the ability to reach out and touch the most protected area in Israel. Donald Trump threatened Iran to knock out their entire power grid. So, in return Iran said to kiss goodbye all power in the Middle East. The Stanley Kubrick movie Doctor Strange Love was a story that focused on imbeciles controlling the deadliest power on earth. The Atomic bomb. We are no longer dealing with “an” atomic bomb, but a plethora of nuclear weapons. If Israel, and I do mean just Israel takes their Samson option, to fire a nuclear weapon towards Iran. It’s game over. The satellites which blanket the earth watching for nuclear middle launches will alert. It will notify that a missile has launched. Therefore everyone else will be poised to launch their nuclear weapons. Now, all that will take seconds, you and I will not know anything has happened until we see a mushroom cloud and are vaporized to meet the Lord in the air. Ted Cruz, Mike Huckabee, Lindsay Graham, Benjamin Netanyahu, and John Hagee will finally get their wish. It will be all very interesting to see how this will effect us, and the teaching on eschatologies. Pre Tribbers mostly?

I didn't / don't want this war.

But now that we are in it, we should use overwhelming force to take control of the Straight of Hormuz and get out before we tank the economy.

Well, the straits of Hormuz was open prior to this war. Now that the Trump administration has dropped the watermelon, we are in a tight spot. The Trump Administration was led by Benjamin Netanyahu into believing that this war was only going to be a couple of days. Those are Trump’s words not mine. Sadly, this country has idiots running the show. Therefore if you got your wish and we sent young men and young women into that region they would die. Iran isn’t Afghanistan or Iraq. The Trump administration got some stupid idea that they could make B. Netanyahu’s dreams come true. No president before Trump was dumb enough to take the bait. So, here we are. If everything stopped today, and I mean all bombing and fighting we are still looking at a Summer of a smoked economy. All we could do is pray that we get through this situation. I hope I’m wrong, and the wars impact. But throwing gasoline on a grease fire never seems to be a good fix. We need to accept that we aren’t going to be able to shoot our way out of this one. We as Americans have never seen the likes of this before. We aren’t prepared. You can be the King of Bug Out prepping, you are still gonna to have to deal with something precarious. Again, you or I have never seen anything like this. Oil tankers move at about 22 knots. That is about 26 mph, if you did that in your car it would take some time to travel. So, oil tankers need to leave the Strait and go down the coast of west Africa down around the cape. Then head across the Atlantic to the Gulf of America to Deepwater, Louisiana. By that time Asia is going to have their lights flickering, and cars running dry. Not to mention all the diesel it takes to keep any country moving. I hope I’m dead wrong, I hope by Summer we are paying 1974 prices for gas $.48, and running barefoot through all the money the Donald made for this country. But, alas, he yoked himself to a leader who has his own people wanting to put he and his wife in jail. Sadly we might end up paying for it big time.

I was thinking we need a quick resolution to prevent a forever war which would cost more lives in the long run.

But, your analysis is sound.

When you walk far into the woods, if you turn around, it will take you twice as long to get out. What I mean, is that you have a president who really has no solution as far as an off-ramp. Pete Hegseth has shown himself to be incompetent, just an actor a Fox & Friends Weekend co-host. Alas in the United States, television/Hollywood and reality too often blend together. Hegseth fired four Army generals? Why, you may ask? Maybe because they could clearly see, that sending in grounds troops would be suicidal for those American young men and women being sent to fight. When you are in the middle of an engagement, it seems that firing men and women who obviously have far more experience than you, a bad thing? But, this is what we have, a total collapse. The Trump Administration had some good ideas, made us all kinds of promises. But I guess when your son in law grows up around an Israeli prime minister, all bets are off for the people of the United States.

Kier Starmer, and Anthony Albanese addressed their countries concerning the war in the Middle East. While Anthony Albanese addressed Australians telling them that the months ahead will be hard. Kier Starmer, told his people this war will affect their country for years to come. This is what I'm seeing the amount of damage maybe unprecedented in our time. I mean, the Donald just didn't drop the watermelon, he went and stepped in it. Watching all of this in real time, while considering the lasting effects is sad. Jesus will get us through this, and only by His power alone can we make it.

I remember the gas lines back in 1979. The last time we had an issue with the Iranians. It wasn't even close to this scale. We had Jimmy Peanut Carter at the helm. President Peanut Carter banned Iranian oil imports. This, combined with the 444-day hostage crisis, severely impacted his presidency. So, let's see how the Donald handles this spill on aisle 4.

Average gas price in the US hits record high of $4.589 as JPMorgan says to expect national average to hit $6 by the end of summer.

Gas prices in the US reached a new record high Thursday, recording a national average of $4.589 per gallon, according to AAA's gas price calculator

Analysts at JPMorgan now warning that that number could surpass the $6 mark by the end of the summer

The concerning forecast comes as US gas prices have surged to previously unseen highs during Joe Biden's presidency

The nation's current average gasoline price, $4.58-a-gallon, stands as nearly double the $2.41 seen during former president Trump's last month in office

The number topped Wednesday's previous record of $4.567, which eclipsed Tuesday's record of $4.523, which beat out Monday's record of $4.470

Ok, the next escalation has Trump saying he is prepared to “blow everything up.” That is exactly what he will do. If he attacks the civilian population (which is a war crime) the war will be on the edge to be a forever war. That’s if we have the money to bleed out for this escalation. Loyds of London insuring the tankers moving through the strait will become a higher risk to insure, which obviously cost more. With Iran charging each tanker (excluding ours, we aren’t allowed) will make costs higher. Also bullets, bombs, and money. War and ammunition isn’t cheap. While politicians beat their tin drums for all these years to attack Iran for Israel, they all have finally got their wish to “blow everything up” yet, not for a minute did they count the cost. Trump sounds like the Queen of Hearts in Lewis Carroll's 1865 novel, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. “Off with their heads!” This isn’t a child’s novel, or a movie concerning the Marvel Universe. The Donald told us that during the 12 day war, that we took out their nuclear ability to make nuclear missiles. Then the Donald parroted Benjamin Netanyahu’s words that the Iranians were just minutes away from building a nuclear weapon which would wipe out America. Tulsi Gabbard said Iran wasn’t, the Donald said he didn’t care what she said, and Joe Bent quits. Generals fired, buy a television show host. Now we are told the Donald wants to blow EVERYTHING up?

Yep, NATO is useless. But, we pretty much drove the Chinese into the arms of the Russians. The big problem is that our politicians still think we are living in 1953.

this is a really simple video which explains a whole lot concerning what we can expect in the near future. :thumbsup

I wonder why prophecy teachers can’t figure out a way to find this issue in the Bible? Seems since it is such a huge factor globally, that at least one of the major prophets or Apostle would of seen all this? Maybe the Bible prophecy is targeting it's audience instead of a terminal generation somewhere off in the future? But, I digress, watch the video in its entirety, and see why it is so needful to keep the black gold following out the Straits of Hormuz. :)

Trump threatens Iran as dispute over Israel's war in Lebanon casts doubt on ceasefire? Is this what everyone is calling the Donald playing 3D chess? :lol

Doesn’t look like the Donald can bring Israel to heal. Or, he isn’t supposed to have them cooperate with his plans of ceasefire? As far as “threaten” goes, when is the Donald going to pull the trigger? He’s threatened these guys over and over again, but has done nothing. Yet, I’m told he is playing 3D chess? Ok, so let’s see how this 3D chess works out this Summer. I hope we are paying $.50 a gallon, and buying a carton of 18 eggs for a dollar.

You know what happens when a snowball rolls down a snow filled mountain? It gets bigger, and bigger. All the presidents prior to the Donald had the insight, and yes, the wisdom to not start a hot war with Iran. Anyone taking advice from Benjamin Netanyahu isn’t smart. Now, we can plainly see why.

Nope, no agreement. That’s because what the Iranians had to agree with was penned out by the United States’ problem child “Israel.” The Donald doesn’t know what to do at this point. He sent JD Vance and the two real estate agents over to Islamabad, only to return empty handed. Sadly, we are going to enter into a major issue this summer. It’s going to get harder for everyone everywhere. All we can do is pray that the Donald has himself a visitation from the Lord instructing him in a dream a way out off all this. Send him a Daniel.

Re: Israel Nuclear Weapon
 
Google AI: As of April 13, 2026, the United States has more than 50,000 troops deployed across the Middle East.

This presence has grown significantly following a massive military buildup earlier this year—the largest since the 2003 Iraq invasion—as tensions with Iran escalated into active conflict.

Troop Distribution and Key Locations. The majority of these forces are stationed in several key partner nations:

* Kuwait
Host to the largest U.S. presence, with approximately 13,500 personnel stationed at bases like Ali Al-Salem Air Base and Camp Arifjan.

* Qatar
Houses roughly 10,000 troops at Al Udeid Air Base, which serves as the forward headquarters for U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM).

* Bahrain
Home to over 8,300 service members and the headquarters of the U.S. 5th Fleet.

* Jordan
Approximately 4,000 personnel are currently stationed here, supporting major air power hubs.

* UAE & Saudi Arabia
Roughly 3,500 and 2,700 service members, respectively, provide air and missile defense support.

Recent Reinforcements:
Since the conflict began on February 28, 2026, several elite units have been dispatched to bolster these numbers:

* 82nd Airborne Division: Approximately 2,000 to 3,000 paratroopers from the Immediate Response Force were ordered to the region in late March to provide rapid-response options.

* Marine Expeditionary Units (MEUs): Two MEUs, totaling about 4,500 to 5,000 Marines and sailors, have been deployed to the region to support amphibious operations and potentially secure strategic sites like Kharg Island.

* Naval Surge: Roughly 20 U.S. Navy ships (nearly 41% of the Navy's operationally ready vessels) are currently in or around the Middle East, including the USS Abraham Lincoln and USS Gerald R. Ford carrier strike groups.

Air Power
Total air assets in the region include over 300 military aircraft. This includes squadrons of F-35C Lightning IIs, F-22 Raptors, and F-15E Strike Eagles providing continuous air cover for the naval blockade that officially began today, April 13.

Now, all they have to do is rebuild the temple and have him sit in the temple, proclaiming himself as God.
