This Week In The News
Current Events
By Norbert Link
We begin with frightening developments and occurrences in Germany, especially regarding AfD’s convoluted plans and Germany’s most dangerous school; and we continue with Putin’s sinister scheme against NATO. Please view in this regard our StandingWatch program, titled, “Will Putin Attack NATO?” We also speak on Ukraine’s attacks on Russia with alleged British weapons and support and Russia’s response in pulling its ambassador out of Britain.
We address National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir’s terrible demands; the position of Israel pertaining to a Palestinian state; and Israel’s volatile and deteriorating relationship with Turkey.
Focusing on the United States, we address America’s unprecedented horrendous national debt; Trump’s attempt to court North Korea about which South Korea is extremity unhappy; the US Pentagon’s firing of the Stars and Stripes Editor in Chief; the beginning of a new trade war between Canada and the USA; the Supreme Court’s controversial decision to give green light for Trump’s ballroom; and a thought-provoking article about the downfall of the United States.
We conclude with another example of Catholic idolatry and blasphemy.
Please view our new StandingWatch program, titled, “America’s Foolish Trade War With Canada.”

There are a number of stark reminders in the Bible of those who ignored God’s specific instructions when they were given to certain individuals and the consequences were very serious. All of these should be handy lessons for those of us who have been called in this age that disobedience to God consistently results in serious consequences, ranging from immediate personal struggles and broken relationships to spiritual separation and ultimate judgment.
Obedience is often viewed today as a “bad” or outdated concept in modern society. It can often be equated with forced submission, authoritarianism, and a lack of free will. Obedience can be viewed negatively because it may limit freedom or be used manipulatively, plus the fact that so many don’t like any restrictions in their lives.
