1 TRANSCRIPT (16-30) SECRET WHIRLWIND DESTROYS IRAN AUGUST 30, 2016 VOICEOVER: The Key of David with Gerald Flurry. GERALD FLURRY: Greetings, everyone. A United States warship was cruising through the Strait of Hormuz and was, well, harassed pretty violently by four Iranian high-speed gunboats, and two of them came within about 300 yards of this U.S. warship. And one of the Iranian ministers said, Well, if America VIOLATES our waters, we will confront them. Now, the problem is, the ship was in international waters and we violated NOTHING, but they re acting like, well, this belongs to US, whether you like it or not, and they re going to keep harassing, and yet the U.S. seems to do nothing about it. The Strait of Hormuz is a VITAL sea gate, and Iran has threatened several times to just cut off our oil, and they could certainly do that in this narrow little sea gate. That could easily be done and they know it, and they have threatened to do it a number of times. They just HUMILIATE us, it seems like almost every week, and why is that? Here we have given them, well, removed all of the sanctions where it just resurrected their very poor economy, and we ve given them $150 billion, which is an ENORMOUS amount of money that they can use to expand their terrorism. After all, they are the number-one sponsoring terrorist nation in the world BY FAR. By far! Also we made a nuclear deal with them, and they said they just loved it. They loved everything about it and they got all they wanted. And we give and give and give, and the more we give to them, the more they hate us. Why is that? Well, because they have nothing but just utter CONTEMPT and HATRED for a weak military and a weak will. That is the way they think! And that s the way it is. And we keep trying to BUY the Iranians love, and they hate us more and more. Now, the Bible has a lot to say about what is going on right now in the Middle East. Let s take a quick look at Daniel 11 and verse 40, a very basic prophecy ABOUT the Middle East. Verse 40: And at the time of the end shall the king of the south push at him: and the king of the north shall come against him like a whirlwind, so the King of 1

2 the South IS Iran leading the radical Islam and it has a very PUSHY foreign policy, and it s PUSHING at America and checking out just how far they can PUSH us, and it seems like they can push us a long, long distance, because we don t seem to respond to their aggressive, pushy foreign policy. Very pushy, indeed! But in the process there is a secret whirlwind discussed here, a secret whirlwind that is going to destroy Iran. Now, how could that happen? How DOES it happen? And can that really be true? Well, it certainly is because it s prophesied in your Bible. It has two kings clashing! The Iranians and their radical terrorist system is pushing America out of the Middle East. The U.S. used to be the king of the Middle East, but they re not any longer, and it is the King of the South, it is IRAN that the Bible says is going to be the KING of the Middle East at this point, and not the U.S. any more. What is happening to America? Why is America taken out of the equation? What is going on in America, and our foreign policy, and especially that in the Middle East? First let s look at the pushy King of the South, and then we ll get into the other king and talk about THAT king. I want to just give you a quick quote here that we wrote on this article, Securing the Horn, the Philadelphia Trumpet, October 2006, and it said: Since the National Islamic Front seized power in Sudan in 1989, the United States has eyed the Horn of Africa... We have to see what that is. And, with increasing concern. Sudan intent on building a radical Islamic state. right in sync with Iran in many ways, and just the core of their terrorist effort really flows from Sudan in many ways. This article goes on to say, [Sudan] has operated as a gateway for the free movement of Islamic terror organizations throughout the Horn a region that embraces Africa s central north-eastern coastlands including Kenya, Somalia, Ethiopia, Djibouti, Eritrea, as well as Sudan. Now, if Somalia continues to fall in line with the Iranian camp, then there will only really be the little area of Ethiopia and Eritrea, and even Eritrea is very much in the Iranian camp ALREADY. So it s looking very BLEAK in what is called the Horn of Africa. That is an area where terrorism is really thriving and just going up and down, north and south, and giving Iran all kinds of power, and scaring the daylights out of the other Arab nations in that area of the world. So that Horn of Africa has become kind of like a crossroads for all this terrorism that s going on. And notice this: [T]he whole of the region bordering the eastern and western perimeters of the Red Sea could fall into extremist Islamic hands. Such a phenomenon would give the Islamic nations, please get this, it would give the Islamic nations total control not only of the geography within which Middle Eastern oil deposits reside, but also of the vital two sea links through which much of this oil is shipped: the Persian Gulf and the Red Sea. Now, you can see the strategy of Iran if you look at this, and they will even reveal a lot of that 2

3 themselves. But this is, I mean there s just no bastion of resistance to them, it seems, there in the Horn of Africa and in most places in the Middle East. From Sudan they ve sent missiles, all kinds of powerful missiles to Gaza and rockets to them that can, even from Sudan can hit Tel Aviv and Jerusalem. Now, how important is THAT to the little nation called Israel? And they have a weapons factory there. Notice. In Eritrea, an Israeli source said: We believe that Iranian warships based in Eritrea will escort the cargo ship once it has entered the Red Sea. So they re already prepared to escort the ships through the Red Sea and the Suez Canal out into the Mediterranean. Now, you have to begin to see the kind of strategy that Iran has, and how they re really just getting CONTROL of the Middle East and TOTALLY pushing America out of the equation. What is going on, and what does mean for this world? America has helped control some peace movements, major peace movements in the Middle East for a long time, but they re not doing that anymore and look what is happening! Look what is happening! See, Iran wants to use this vital trade-link. Many people think it s the most important trade route in the world. Now, the big mistake that America is making is they feel like that, well, Iran just feels like they have no reason to FEAR America. But there IS a movement that they don t see and they don t understand, and it s FAR different than the U.S., and that is a movement that s flowing and being motivated by Germany, and they ALSO have great ambitions and especially for the Middle East. And something is building that we need to be aware of, and Iran is about to get the biggest shock of its life because they don t understand what s REALLY happening in Germany and their plan for the Middle East. Let me quote just a little bit from another article here where it talks about Yemen being one of the most strategically important countries in the world. Well, I ll just read this. In January the Houthis, a rebel group sponsored and directed by Iran, overthrew the pro-american Yemeni government. Now, that was, well, a country that America was depending on, and NOW Iran has the upper hand THERE, and the Saudi-Arabians have fought them because they know how CRITICAL this is, and they re really BOTHERED and WORRIED by what Iran is doing. So then if you look at a map of Yemen, just 18 miles across a little gate there, Bab el Mandeb Strait, you have Djibouti. Just a little 18 mile stretch of waterway there, across the waterway there, and that is ANOTHER gate that Iran now looks like they have control of. So it s getting very DANGEROUS in the Middle East, and look, we STILL depend on the oil from that part of the world, and Iran is in a position now on two different gates right there in the Middle East where they could cut it off! Cut off the oil coming to the U.S. and essentially just wreck our economy! Now, this is a serious problem for each ONE of us because we have a fragile economy anyhow with a debt that s unknown to any other nation in this world, of almost $20 trillion, and nobody s even HEARD of a debt like that 3

4 0before. So where is all of this leading? Iran controls Yemen, and Europe is taking notice, and America ought to be taking notice, as well. The Houthis, after they overthrew the American-supported government and got most of the control themselves, the very first chant they made was DEATH TO AMERICA! And then secondly, DEATH TO ISRAEL! Now, their number-one ENEMY in the world is America! That is Iran and their radical followers and radical terrorists that support them. Do you think they would just relish cutting off the oil to Europe and America? Well, of COURSE they would! They would do it in a FLASH if they thought they needed that to get control, more control of the Middle East, and yet we keep assuming that everything will work out fine, but it isn t going to work out fine. They hate America most of all! And they have the power to, well, you COULD say, to wreck our economy! And what are we doing about it? What is happening? They call us, The Great Satan! And they call our number-one ally in the Middle East, The Little Satan. Are they a danger to us? Notice what Yemeni Colonel Hussain al Yadumi wrote for the U.S.A. War College in 1991: One of the primary duties of the international community is to act as an alert guardian to ensure that the Bab el Mandeb Strait is available to ALL navigation at all times. That s one of the primary DUTIES of the west! And America is just letting it all slip away, but Germany? Well, they have another plan and that s what the world doesn t see YET, but they re soon going to see it when they come on the scene with AWESOME power! Because they already have it and most of the world doesn t really know it and they re getting stronger all the time. But here you have Iran there now, here s the world s greatest state-sponsor of terrorism, and they re going to be the gate-keeper of all the trade flowing through the Red Sea and the Suez Canal out into the Mediterranean? What is that going to do for this world if that happens, if that really transpires? Well, it isn t going to happen that way, and you need to understand why. We all do. Bible prophecy talks about something very DIFFERENT happening that IS going to change the course of world history and PLUNGE this world into the greatest violence it has EVER, EVER known! Let me give you one more quote here. Notice what Michael Seigle wrote for The Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs: If the shia rebels gain control of the Bab el Mandeb Strait, Iran can again attain a foothold in this sensitive region, giving access to the Red Sea and the Suez Canal, a cause of concern not only for its sworn rivals Saudi Arabia, Egypt, and the Gulf states but also for Israel and European countries along the Mediterranean. Arab commentators in the Gulf have warned in recent years about this Iranian push. They even label it the same thing that the Bible does! It s a push! They re always pushing! But there s one big push coming that is going to lead to their destruction. That is in your Bible and it will happen. 4

5 So we have just looking at the map, you can see how essential all this is to America. And of course, the other Arab nations are seeing what s happening and we re supposed to be their protectors we have been in the past but they see now that the U.S. is not going to do anything and they see what Iran is doing, and as other commentators have said, they re scared to death! And they re beginning to make some strong alliances with Germany. That s where it s all leading! So we need to understand Bible prophecy, and we need to realize that Iran is about to get nuclear weapons, and one of the ex-u.s., a General King, said that, well, Are they really going to wait ten years to have a bomb, according to that agreement? And he said, Why, no! They CHEAT! They could have a bomb in two years, and I would go even further and say they could have it within a year. They may ALREADY have it, some people speculate. But if you look at Daniel 12, it talks about a time of trouble, such as never was on this Earth. That s right AFTER Daniel 11 and verse 40, and it goes on to talk about Daniel 12 and verse 11 and 12 about the time that we can count the 1290 days, that it s going to be 1290 days, getting close to that period, before the Messiah comes and brings us the peace and joy that we all want. In the remaining time, let me talk now about the whirlwind that s going to destroy Iran, a military whirlpool. Let s look at, I ll just see if I ve got that verse here again. I want to just read that. Yes, I ve got it here. I just want to read that verse to you again. Daniel 11 and verse 40. It describes how the King of the South will be violently invaded by the King of the North. At the same time of the end that is the time immediately before us, shall the King of the South push at him, and the King of the North shall come against him like a whirlwind, with chariots and with horseman and with many ships, and he shall enter into the countries, and shall overflow and pass over. So you can see. We ll send you literature that will explain all this about the whirlwind and how it s defined. It s just like a whirlwind that circles round and round, and does a lot of destruction. Only this is a MILITARY whirlwind, and it just whirls all around you. Now, if you notice, it says here that this whirlwind I ll just read it to you again: and the king of the north shall come against him like a whirlwind, with chariots, and with horsemen, and with many ships; so you re going to have a whirlwind, you re going to have like it s destruction coming from the air, coming from the land warfare, and even from the sea! Germany and this German-led Europe is going to attack them from EVERY direction, and they ve CIRCLED Iran and their allies, and they re going to throw everything they have at them, and they re going to TOTALLY destroy them. And their allies will certainly be surrendering to Germany or willing to change courses very radically if they want to survive. But look, when you talk about an all-out war like that, that includes so much power, that doesn t happen by accident! That is being planned at this very moment and expanded, and yet most people don t even see it happening! Germany has some POWERFUL interests throughout Africa. They re recolonizing African states and states within Africa. Now, they have ambitions that 5

6 are even greater than the King of the South in many ways! They have a strategy, and none of this is coincident. Germany was involved in the operation to take care of the piracy coming out of Somalia. Remember that? Well, that was more than a decade ago that they first went in there, and they re still there, watching, observing, and seeing what is going on in that part of the world. Let me just read to you, and we ll send you a booklet that will explain all this to you about Germany s Secret Strategy to Destroy Iran. And we have a huge list of countries with German military deployments, outsourced arms, manufacturing and arms trading partners. And I could go down to that list, I think we have about 15 countries where they re just SURROUNDING all of Iran and their allies. I mean, this is carefully crafted, and this is German thoroughness. This is the way they prepare for war. But here we have one of the globe s most vital sea gates, really, two or three of them all together in a way, right there in the Middle East coming up into the Red Sea and the Suez Canal and the Mediterranean Sea, and already the radical Islamic movement has a lot of power within those African nations along the Mediterranean Sea, like Libya and Egypt. So what is going to happen here? And how is all this going to be solved? See, this whirlwind strategy is a strategy of a German Holy Roman Empire, German-led Holy Roman Empire. I want to just quickly read something to you here that is CRITICAL to understand about Germany. Germany and its vassal federation, the European Union, can ill afford to permit the spread of Islam in Africa to interrupt their present process of re-colonizing, RE-COLONIZING! by trade, aid, and peacekeeping operations, the politically weak but resource-strong nations of that continent... Yeah, they re weak militarily, but they have strong resources! And Germany is REALLY taking advantage of all of that. an especially oil-rich Gulf region and its crucial seaways, access to which they need for their spreading global hegemony. Now you see, that s the plan of Germany. And that s why you re going to see that great push, one final push by Iran, and Germany is going to respond to that. There ll be ten kings coming out of Europe to administer all of this warfare, and it is going to be an explosion in this world like nothing they ve ever seen in the Middle East. and it s going to really, probably, even involve nuclear bombs. One of the German Federal Armed Forces Association, Lieutenant Colonel Andre Wussner, said in December that Terror in Africa makes it clear once again that a ring of fire extends from Afghanistan via Yemen, Syria and Iraq to Africa. Do you think Germany s going to do nothing about this? No! They see this all happening, that ring of fire, and they re building their OWN ring of fire, which is called a WHIRLWIND in the Bible. And they re going to be prepared to go all out and hit Iran, who doesn t really even know what s going on because they re so focused on the United States and Israel and other nations in the Middle East that they re overlooking what Germany is doing, and that s the greatest mistake they re ever 6

7 going to make because it s going to lead to their own DEFEAT. And it s going to usher in the coming of the Messiah to bring us joy and peace and happiness. Until next week, this is Gerald Flurry, goodbye, friends. # 7
