Iran army chief threatens to ‘teach Israel a good lesson’ EndTimesHeadlines By Ricky Scaparo April 25, 2021 The chief of Iran’s Armed Forces, Mohammad Bagheri just threatened to “teach Israel a very good lesson,” in what appears to be a threat of retaliation after Iran has accused Israel of being behind a reported attack on an Iranian tanker off Syria’s Coast. Bagheri told reporters: “We don’t announce anything about the incidents that happened recently, nor do we know who did it, but the Resistance Front will teach Israel a very good lesson,” according to several Iranian journalists. Israelis think they can keep hitting Syria and making mischievous moves elsewhere and in the seas and not receive any response,” said Bagheri, according to tweets by Iranian journalists Reza Khaasteh and Abas Aslani. “The moves made in the past few days and future moves against their interests will bring them to their senses,” Bagheri added. “It is not clear how Iran will respond, but the Zionist regime will not remain peaceful.” The threat also follows a recent attack by Syria who launched a missile at Israel, triggering a response by the IDF with airstrikes. - Fair Use - Sharing the Cracker Jacks :popcorn :popcorn :popcorn :popcorn I think we are all going to need it after reading this ... NTEB prophecy news podcast: Elon Musk’s SpaceX Dragon Falcon 9 Rocket reaches outer space only to be greeted by UFO, says NASA On this episode of the NTEB Prophecy News Podcast, we are coming back to one of our favorite subjects, fallen angels and the Genesis 6 giants, and why do we like that topic so much? Because Jesus tells us that that will herald the start of the time of Jacob's trouble, and that means the Pretribulation Rapture is even that much closer! Any day now, prepare yourself to see with your eyes the creatures lost people refer to 'space aliens', because they have arrived and seem to be raring to get started. Ironically, or perhaps intentionally, Elon Musk has named his space capsule the Dragon, the same name given to Satan in Revelation 12. Any day now, prepare yourself to see with your eyes the creatures lost people refer to ‘space aliens’, because they have arrived and seem to be raring to get started. Since the last half of 2019, we’ve been telling you to prepare yourselves for the return of the fallen angels and the Genesis 6 Giants, their time on the prophetic stage is about to begin and for many months now we’ve been watching them “warm up” for their big appearance. Elon Musk and his Dragon space capsule got a taste of that over the weekend. Ready or not, here they come. “But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.” Matthew 24:37 On this episode of the NTEB Prophecy News Podcast, we are coming back to one of our favorite subjects, fallen angels and the Genesis 6 giants, and why do we like that topic so much?

Scientists Create Meat from Human Cells "It’s not cannibalism if the ‘steaks’ are grown from the consumer’s own cells at home." Could this be it? The world has finally reached the point of no return?

And perhaps trick many to buy an electric car. Which is part of the Biden go green agenda. Coming this summer: Gas stations running out of gas By Chris Isidore, CNN Business New York (CNN Business)Millions of people stuck at home for more than a year are expected to hit the road for much-needed post-pandemic vacations this summer. Good luck finding gas. Not that there's a looming shortage of crude oil or gasoline. Rather, it's the tanker truck drivers needed to deliver the gas to stations who are in short supply. "We've been dealing with a driver shortage for a while, but the pandemic took that issue and metastasized it," said Ryan Streblow, the executive vice president of the NTTC. "It certainly has grown exponentially." Indeed, drivers left the business a year ago when gasoline demand ground to a near halt during the early pandemic-related shutdowns. We were even hauling boxes for Amazon just to keep our drivers busy," said Holly McCormick, vice president in charge of driver recruitment and retention at Groendyke Transport, an Oklahoma tanker company. "A lot of drivers didn't want to do the safety protocols. We're also working with an aging work force. Many said 'I might as well take it as a cue to retire.'" Not just any truck driver is allowed to drive a tanker truck. It requires special certification, including a commercial driver's license, and weeks of training after being hired. And while the jobs are more attractive than some long-haul trucking jobs that can keep drivers away from home for days or weeks at a time, it is strenuous, difficult work. McCormick, who runs the workforce committee for NTTC, said another problem was the shutdown of many driver schools early in the pandemic. The pipeline of new drivers those schools would have produced has yet to be filled, she said. And then there's a new federal clearinghouse that went online in January 2020 to identify truck drivers with prior drug or alcohol violations or failed drug tests, which knocked about 40,000 to 60,000 total drivers out of the national employment pool. :mdrmdr: Well this says it all. :prayer-hands: Please Lord, take us away from this mess. - Fair Use - Getting hammered at the pump up here in Canada, as it is. I used to be able to slip across the border and buy gas in Blaine, Washington. Not now with the scamdemic. Even though Blaine has the highest gas prices in the Continental US, it is still at least 25% cheaper than what we pay in Canada. Oh and did you hear about this ... any day now ... they are going to release in the Florida Keys ... 144,000 😉 GMO Frankenstein bugs ... what could possibly go wrong when they start biting humans and animals B-) RT.com A plan to release thousands of genetically modified mosquitoes in an effort to combat disease in the Florida Keys has triggered dire concerns among locals, some saying the “criminal” experiment will turn them into guinea pigs. Spearheaded by the Florida Keys Mosquito Control District (FKMCD) and Oxitec, a British biotech firm that’s received backing from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, the project aims to turn the first swarms of gene-edited bugs loose into the Keys starting sometime this week, the two bodies announced in a joint statement. For the first leg of the plan, set to be expanded later, mosquito boxes will be placed at six locations, which over 12 weeks will release around 144,000 Aedes aegypti mosquitoes, a species most closely linked with transmitting illnesses such as dengue, Zika and yellow fever. If all goes according to plan, the male, non-biting bugs will mate with local biting females, whose female offspring are programmed to die off, helping to control the Aedes aegypti population and reduce the spread of disease. While the particular species makes up only about 4% of the overall population in the Keys, it is behind “virtually all” mosquito-borne diseases passed to humans, as well as some that are transmitted to animals, such as heartworm, according to Oxitec. Approved by the Environmental Protection Agency last May under an Experimental Use Permit, the project also seeks to cut down on the use of chemical pesticides, which can be harmful to local wildlife. However, while Oxitec presented that as a major perk in selling the plan to local leaders, the mosquito control board has so far given no indication of any plans to reduce pesticide usage. The UK-based firm, founded in 2002 at Oxford University, also claims that public support for the plan “remains high,” even as locals voice extreme skepticism, some directly to community leaders. “We may not be scientists, but we read. And what Oxitec says and what we’re reading from other sources are two completely different things,” one concerned resident, Meagan Hull, said at a March village council meeting, adding “I beg you, I implore you to take immediate action [and] consider a resolution against this technology.” I find it criminal that we are being bullied into this experiment – criminal that we are being subjected to this terrorism by our own Florida Keys Mosquito Control Board. Another local similarly said she was “incredibly concerned” that the plan is moving ahead, pointing to risk that biting gene-hacked female mosquitoes would emerge in the community. “Everybody says that’s not going to happen, but I don’t trust that,” she said, also suggesting a “lack of transparency” from Oxitec and the government agencies involved. Even some elected officials expressed trepidation, with Councilman Mark Gregg calling the GMO mosquitoes “Frankenstein bugs.” “I hear other people say we’re being made into guinea pigs. Maybe we are... I just don’t know that it’s ready for prime time yet,” he said. The mosquito control board, however, insists on the need to improve its control methods due to pesticide resistance developing in disease-carrying bugs, saying the Oxitec project could provide new tools that are “safe, environmentally friendly, and targeted.” Oxitec is no stranger to genetically modified blood-suckers, having already released more than a billion bugs across South America and the Caribbean, such as a 27-month-long experiment in Brazil in 2013 that sought to cut the local mosquito population by 90%. Like the initiative in the Keys, offspring from the GM mosquitoes were meant to die off in Brazil, however Oxitec came under fire in 2019 after researchers published a study alleging that the bugs were reproducing, finding that up to 60% of mosquitoes analyzed contained traces of modified genes. While the company later disputed those findings, insisting the experiment went as planned, other Oxitec efforts have also been subject to criticism. A like project in the Cayman Islands was terminatedin 2018 after local officials concluded it had failed, with Health Minister Dwayne Seymour saying the plan “wasn’t getting the results that we thought we could get.” Months before its Cayman Islands contract fell through, the company announced a partnership with the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation to produce similar “friendly” and “self-limiting” mosquitoes, this time for the Anopheles species, which spread malaria. Since then, Oxitec has raked in just shy of $8.5 million from Gates, according to the foundation’s financial records, receiving more than $1.2 million so far in 2021 alone. It is unclear whether any of those funds were devoted to the Florida Keys plan. - Fair Use -
According to the National Tank Truck Carriers, the industry's trade group, somewhere between 20% to 25% of tank trucks in the fleet are parked heading into this summer due to a paucity of qualified drivers. At this point in 2019, only 10% of trucks were sitting idle for that reason.
