   Richard, I think you owe your readers an explanation about the speaker change. I am curious to know why Trita Parsi will not participate. I don’t know any of the others, and i thought you were to be the moderator. What’s up?

     I have explained the change to all the event sponsors. NIAC is suing Hassan Daioeslam, a follower of the Mujahadeen al Khalq who I’ve written about here. A legal matter came up related to the lawsuit which forces Trita to be in DC on the 16th. We were left w. the option of changing the date to accommodate Trita’s change of schedule or maintaining the date. The speaker taking Trita’s place is national chair of NIAC & quite capable in his own right.

   Iran should not arouse concern. Georgia is the most dangerous flashpoint. The Bible says: “At the appointed time [the king of the north = Russia] will return back [will regain the influence, which it lost after the break-up of the Soviet Union] and come into the south [many indicate that this might be Georgia], but it will not be as the former [1921] or as the latter [2008]. For the dwellers of coastlands of Kittim [the West] will come against him, and he will be humbled, and will return.” (Daniel 11:29,30a) Then Iran will be humbled also. “But ships will come from the direction of Kittim, troubling Asshur [Russia] and troubling Eber [inhabiting on the other side the Euphrates].” (Numbers 24:24a, BBE)

   At that time, peace will be taken from the earth and the “great sword” – nuclear sword – will be used. (Revelation 6:4) However, it will be neither the great tribulation nor “the end of the world” (Armageddon). As Jesus foretold, that will be “the beginning of birth pains”. (Mathew 24:7,8)

   If the Heavens planned a full return of Russia (and much suggests this) the present economic crisis will deepen. Then also the European Union and NATO will not stands.

   Sounds very interesting, despite the loss of opportunity with regard to Trita Parsi. May his good work prevail.

   Thank you for your persistence and your many efforts, Richard. Many, many thanks.
