During World War I, the German treasury was low in gold, its budget was unbalanced, and inflation went sky high. In 1919, the German mark was worth twenty US cents, or four marks to the dollar.

(See the author's September 25th article, "Two Coming Invasions of Israel: Ezekiel 38 and 39.") However, it seems that Iran will still have a key role, leadi...

At the height of his career, Napoleon is reported to have boldly declared, "God is on the side that has the heaviest artillery." It was a cynical answer to someone who asked if God was on the side of France. But then came the Battle of Waterloo, where he lost both the battle and his empire. Years later, while in exile on the isle of St. Helena, the...

The evidence shows that Iran was behind the Washington assassination plot in which an Iranian American was hired to kill the Saudi ambassador to the U.S. But why would Iran attempt such brazen action? After all, if Iranian leadership wanted to kill a Saudi official, the plot could have been carried out anywhere else. But to carry it out in a crowde...

There is the story of a man who encountered a boy, carrying a rusty cage imprisoning several birds. As the man looked at the birds which seemed to flutter nervously, he asked the boy, "Son, where did you get those birds?" "I trapped them out in a field," replied the youngster. "So what do you plan to do with them?" asked the concerned man. "I think...

Grover Cleveland experienced a meteoric rise to power when he went from being a moderately successful Buffalo lawyer in 1881 to being elected president of the United States in just three years!

In a Peanuts cartoon, Peppermint Patty reminds Charlie Brown, "You heard what that speaker said, Chuck. He said we're in the last days!" Charlie Brown responds with: "I know. I heard him say the world is coming to an end." In the third frame, Peppermint Patty continues with: "Marcie said the world can't end today because it's already tomorrow in Au...
President Obama’s “New” War on Israel

October 04th, 201106:44 PM ET

By John Claeys

After more than two and a half years of pushing and condemning Israeli leadership, the president, who has been "openly antagonistic to Israel's leadership," sided with Israel in a U.N. speech on September 21. At first glance, the purpose of the speech was, seemingly, to persuade the U.N. General Assembly not to vote for a resolution on a Palestinia...

By John Claeys

Last week, President Obama sided with Israel in a speech to the U.N. General Assembly.
