Today’s Massive Earthquake In Utah Is Latest Event In A Series Of Events That Began On January 1st And Is Starting To Look Like Matthew 24 Birth Pangs

The fig tree in Matthew 24 is obviously the nation of Israel , and Jesus urges us to look for it to bloom in the end of time when the ‘ beginning of sorrows ’ takes place .
It bloomed .
I was having lunch with my good friend , Christian brother and fellow bible ‘ sword sharpener ’ Andy yesterday , and like always , our lunchtime conversation was a bible study .
In the course of what is probably our last lunch for the next few weeks due to the coronavirus , we got to talking about what @ @ @ @ @ @ @ been from the very first day .
Regular listeners of our NTEB weekly radio bible study know that all through 2019 , I called for 2020 to be a ‘ year of incredible change ’ , and it is been that in spades .
“ And as he sat upon the mount of Olives , the disciples came unto him privately , saying , Tell us , when shall these things be ?
and what shall be the sign of thy coming , and of the end of the world ?
And Jesus @ @ @ @ @ @ @ heed that no man deceive you .
For many shall come in my name , saying , I am Christ ; and shall deceive many .
And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars : see that ye be not troubled : for all these things must come to pass , but the end is not yet .
For nation shall rise against nation , and kingdom against kingdom : and there shall be famines , and pestilences , and earthquakes , in divers places .
All these are the beginning @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ) But as we started to recollect the myriad wild events that began on January 1st , which we will lay out here for you in detail , Andy and I noticed how similar what is happening right now is to the ‘ beginning of sorrows ’ Jesus tells us to watch for in Matthew 24 .
Incredible , actually , as you will see below .
As you read our list , please remember that the majority of Matthew 24 is addressed to the Jews living in the time of Jacob ’ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Tribulation .
When we rightly divide the scriptures , as Paul tells us to do , we can see what applies to us in the Church Age and what does not .
The Pretribulation Rapture of the Church is the main and primary event that will kick everything off , but since Matthew 24 is geared to Jews in the Tribulation it is not mentioned .
What is mentioned is a ‘ beginning of sorrows ’ that precedes everything , and rightly dividing can certainly place that in the tail end of the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is happening right now ?
Read on and see .
Here now is our timeline of events that have taken place since the beginning of 2020 , placed in context with scripture , and we ask you to study it through and let us know your thoughts in the comment section below .
The 2020 Timeline Of End Time Events And The Matthew 24 ‘ Beginning Of Sorrows ’ • WARS AND RUMOURS OF WARS : On January 1st , we told you about the joint war games between Russia , China and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ before in world history .
During those games , they declared that the dominance of America in the Middle East was coming to an end .
The very next day , President Trump ordered the death by drone of Iranian general Qassem Solemani , which led to an intense face-off between the United States and Iran with all the world wondering if WWIII was beginning .
Britain sent warships to the Gulf as tensions soared right up to the brink .
Iran then intentionally shot down a Ukrainian jet liner with 176 souls @ @ @ @ @ @ @ first 13 days of January .
“ And ye shall hear of : …For nation shall rise against nation , and : “ Matthew 24:6,7 ( KJB ) • SPIRITUAL DECEPTION : While WWIII was potentially waiting to break out , spiritual deception on a mass scale broke out as well .
We told you all about the Kanye West Sunday Service end times false revival , and on January 13 it was announced that he would join the false teachers and heretics of the New Apostolic Reformation at the Sun Devil Stadium @ @ @ @ @ @ @ miracles and wonders ‘ .
“ And Jesus answered and said unto them , Take heed that no man deceive you .
For many shall come in my name , saying , I am Christ ; and .
” Matthew 24:4,5 ( KJB ) • FAMINE : ON January 16th , we brought you the story of how researchers are predicting that over 40 % of the globe will experience civil unrest in 2020 .
Then the locusts started to swarm , and they haven ’ t stopped yet .
The UN warned @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in a part of the world where millions face hunger , and the FAO estimated that 70,000 hectares of crops in Kenya and around 30,000 hectares in Ethiopia had been infested .
It added that locusts had attacked coffee and tea crops that account for approximately 30 % of Ethiopia ’ s exports .
As of this writing today , a ‘ biblical-sized ’ swarm of locusts are preparing to descend on the Middle East just in time for Passover .
The Times of Israel reported that “ A plague of locusts the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ over 30 years is about to hit Africa and the Middle East .
Adding to the perfect biblical storm , the current coronavirus pandemic is affecting travel of international experts and in-country gatherings for training to combat the locust threat , said Rome-based Senior Locust Forecasting Officer Keith Cressman on Monday.
” “ …and there shall be famines , and pestilences , and earthquakes , in divers places.
” Matthew 24:7 ( KJB ) • PESTILENCE : The entire world , right now , is on some degree of lockdown as the coronavirus @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I have not witnessed in my 59 years upon this earth .
Say what you will about how it started , where it started and why it started , the fact of the matter is that is the # 1 , all-consuming headline anywhere and everywhere you look .
Nothing in the past 100 years has caused this level of consternation , so why ?
Why is the coronavirus so different from all the others ?
“ …and there shall be famines , , and earthquakes , in divers places.
” Matthew 24:7 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ morning in Utah , a magnitude 5.7 earthquake struck the Wasatch Front at 7:09 a.m. , shaking homes from Logan down to Utah County .
It was the state ’ s largest earthquake since 1992 .
It has caused damage to the Salt Lake City International Airport , downtown buildings and even the Salt Lake Temple , where the Angel Moroni statute has lost its trumpet .
So far , there have been no reports of serious injuries .
Dozens of aftershocks followed , with the strongest being a magnitude 4.6 .
It @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of aftershocks in the days to come , Keith Koper , director of the University of Utah Seismograph Stations told FOX 13 , and they could last for weeks .
This earthquake is only one of dozens and dozens of ‘ significant earthquakes ’ to be recorded by the USGS since 2020 began .
“ …and there shall be famines , and pestilences , , in divers places .
All these are the beginning of sorrows.
” Matthew 24:7,8 ( KJB ) • THE FIG TREE : The fig tree in Matthew 24 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and Jesus urges us to look for it to bloom in the end of time when the ‘ beginning of sorrows ’ takes place .
The ‘ beginning of sorrows ’ at the start of all these prophetical events needs to have the fig tree blooming , and it is .
When we rightly divide , we see the following .
Israel needs to become a nation again , the ‘ beginning of sorrows ’ starts , the Church is raptured out , the time of Jacob ’ s trouble begins when Antichrist @ @ @ @ @ @ @ peace and safety followed by 3.5 years of the Great Tribulation .
At the end of all that , we return with Jesus on white horses , Revelation 19 , to fight the battle of Armageddon after which King Jesus sets up His literal , visible , physical Kingdom of Heaven on the Throne of David in Jerusalem .
And it all starts with the fig tree .
“ Now ; When his branch is yet tender , and putteth forth leaves , ye know that summer is nigh : So likewise ye @ @ @ @ @ @ @ things , know that it is near , even at the doors.
” Matthew 24:32,33 ( KJB ) On the one hand , you could easily dismiss any or all of these things as nothing special because none of them are new either to America or the world at large .
But what is new , however , and what shocked Andy and I yesterday as we reviewed all these things , is how they are all starting firing simultaneous , one after the other , since day one of 2020 .
At @ @ @ @ @ @ @ odd coincidence , so much so that the Lord put it on my heart to bring these things to your attention for your prayerful review and consideration .
The Pretribulation Rapture Is Scheduled For A Springtime Launch But before we go , let me throw in an added ‘ bonus feature ’ to this list that while it does not appear in Matthew 24 , it does take place in the springtime which is right around the corner .
My very first article to start the NTEB 2020 season was one where I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ would be raptured in 2020 .
Did you know that the Bible tells us that the Pretribulation Rapture of the Church takes place…in the Spring ?
!
?
I am not saying it will be this Spring , but it certainly looks like it will be in a Spring , either 2020 or another year .
Song of Solomon chapter 2 , verses 8-14 , is an amazing picture , in type , of Jesus Christ coming to snatch His Bride up and away from off the Earth in the Rapture .
For @ @ @ @ @ @ @ bride ’ s beloved is pictured as being above her , as if He was coming down to get her : “ The voice of my beloved !
behold , he cometh leaping upon the mountains , skipping upon the hills .
My beloved is like a roe or a young hart : behold , he standeth behind our wall , he looketh forth at the windows , shewing himself through the lattice .
My beloved spake , and said unto me , Rise up , my love , my fair one , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 2:8-10 ( KJB ) Secondly , He is looking at her “ through the lattice ” located “ behind our wall ” , which is exactly where Jesus is when He comes to get us .
He is veiled to the rest of the world , mocking referred to as “ the secret Rapture ” , but He is clearly visible to us .
“ For , lo , the winter is past , the rain is over and gone ; The flowers appear on the earth ; the time of the singing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ voice of the turtle is heard in our land ; The fig tree putteth forth her green figs , and the vines with the tender grape give a good smell .
Arise , my love , my fair one , and come away.
” Song of Solomon 2:11-13 ( KJV ) Solomon clearly puts the timing of when the Beloved comes for the Bride as being at a time of year , right after winter , when everything is blooming and the birds are singing .
Birds sing in springtime , I noticed @ @ @ @ @ @ @ time all year .
Also , please note that it is not just any Spring to which he refers , but to one that also has the “ fig tree ” in leaf .
That would mean that Israel would be back in the land , which they are .
The Conclusion Of The Matter We are living in exciting times if you ’ re a bible believer , watching a world where the fig tree has already bloomed and the where the beginning of sorrows could right now be taking place .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ the Jews in the Tribulation , but there certainly seems to be a snippet or three that might apply to us in the Church Age , rightly divided of course .
If you haven ’ t looked at Matthew 24 and the beginning of sorrows , now while you ’ re home on lockdown due to the coronavirus pestilence might be an excellent time to get acquainted or reacquainted with the prophecy of truth that must shortly come to pass .

My very first article to start the NTEB 2020 season was one where I spoke about my fond hope that we would be raptured in 2020.

Arise, my love, my fair one, and come away.” Song of Solomon 2:11-13 (KJV)
Solomon clearly puts the timing of when the Beloved comes for the Bride as being at a time of year, right after winter, when everything is blooming and the birds are singing. Birds sing in springtime, I noticed their song this morning for the first time all year. Also, please note that it is not just any Spring to which he refers, but to one that also has the “fig tree” in leaf. That would mean that Israel would be back in the land, which they are.

NTEB Calls On All Americans To Follow Coronavirus Safety Recommendations Of Trump Administration And Stay Home For ’15-Day Window’

The president acknowledged that the crisis — which has already killed thousands around the world and set off a plunge of world markets — could last until July or August and even plunge the nation into a recession .
No country , including the United States , has it under control , he said , though he also suggested America could limit its death toll “ if we do a really good job ” responding now .
“ Each and every one of us has a critical role to play in stopping the spread and transmission of the virus , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ makes this change or these critical changes and sacrifices now , we will rally together as one nation , and we will defeat the virus , and we ’ re going to have a big celebration altogether .
With several weeks of focused action , we can turn the corner and turn it quickly.
” Anthony Fauci , director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases , said that while some people may perceive the guidelines as inconvenient or going too far , they reflect a deteriorating assessment of the containment @ @ @ @ @ @ @ “ When you ’ re dealing with an emerging infectious diseases outbreak , you are always behind where you think you are if you think that today reflects where you really are .
That ’ s not word speak .
It means if you think you ’ re here , ” Fauci said , gesturing to illustrate his point , “ you ’ re really here because you ’ re only getting the results .
Therefore , it will always seem that the best way to address it would be to be doing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ an overreaction .
It isn ’ t an overreaction.
” The White House gave the country a 15-day window to flatten the soaring curve of infection , but some disease modelers see a trajectory that could create a crisis , similar to Italy , that would start to overwhelm the U.S. health care system in about 10 days .
Fauci called the 15 days “ a trial ” period for the guidelines to be reconsidered .
“ It isn ’ t that these guidelines are now gon na be in effect until July @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the president was saying is the trajectory of the outbreak may go until then.
” The new guidelines come on the heels of Centers for Disease Control and Prevention guidance Sunday night that recommended the cancellation and postponement of gatherings of 50 people or more for the next eight weeks .
It also comes after the Office of Personnel Management declared federal offices in the Washington , D.C. , area open but with maximum flexibility for telework .

The only comparison you can make between Donald Trump and Jesus is that Jesus came to save sinners, and Trump qualifies for that. Anything else is blasphemy.
As far as I know, there is not the slightest shred of evidence, from a Biblical perspective, that 2024 Republican candidate for president Donald Trump is a Christian. By his own testimony, Trump has never sought God’s forgiveness through the shed blood of Jesus Christ on the cross at Calvary. That means he remains unsaved at this moment. Yet, his millions of fans cannot stop making comparisons between him and Jesus Christ, two people that could not be more unalike or further apart from each other if you tried.
“The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.” John 1:29 (KJB)
I cringe when I see photos of Jesus wearing a Make America Great Again hat, the Bible says He thinks of the USA as less than the drop of a bucket, if Isaiah 40:15 (KJB) is correct. If Jesus was running for president, He would shut all the bars, all the theaters, He would cancel every program that exalts the LGBTQIA+ Movement. He would cancel transgenderism. He would shut down all pornography, all tobacco, all recreational drugs, all music that glorifies sin like rap, rock and country. In short, Jesus of Nazareth could not win an election in America in 2024 if He was on the ballot. If you’re a born again Christian who’s voting for Donald Trump in 2024, why don’t you pray for him to get saved first? And while you’re at it, stop posting memes comparing him to Jesus Christ, because it’s blasphemy.
Why Trump as Jesus Christ makes perfect sense to US evangelists
FROM MIDDLE EAST EYE: “Jesus was arrested and murdered by the Roman government. There have been many people throughout history that have been arrested and persecuted by radical corrupt governments and it’s beginning today in New York City.”
So said Republican Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene, sharing her heartfelt theological concerns over the arraignment of former US President Donald Trump earlier this month in New York.
Episcopal Bishop Reginald T Jackson, who oversees more than 500 churches in Greene’s home state of Georgia, did not care for the analogy and considered it “blasphemous and disgusting”, but Greene had countless other Americans supporting her sentiments.
Trump was arraigned in Manhattan because of allegations of corruption based on hush money he reportedly paid a porn star to keep her relationship with him secret so as not to damage his reputation as he was running for office.
Those allegations do not seem to bother his evangelical base, devoted as it is to the former US president’s image as a devout Christian, to the extent that the sanctity of the figure of Christ is affixed to him. The roots and manifestations of this peculiar version of evangelical theology are extremely important for any understanding of American politics.
The iconography is complete with the figure of the former speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi, piercing Trump’s side with a spear while, Mary-like, Melania Trump sits at his feet, crying.
Trump has a history of comparing himself to Jesus Christ. “Someone said to me the other day,” he said back in 2020, “‘You’re the most famous person in the world by far’. I said, ‘No, I’m not’… they said, ‘Who’s more famous?’ I said: ‘Jesus Christ.’”
Connecting with his evangelical base and abusing their faith, while fulfilling his insatiable thirst for fame and fortune, are the common staples of Trump’s political parlance. READ MORE

nowtheendbegins--2020-03-18--Fearing End Of The World From Coronavirus, Man Returns Stolen 2,000 Year Old Catapult Ballista Stone

Fearing End Of The World From Coronavirus, Man Returns Stolen 2,000 Year Old Catapult Ballista Stone Likely Used In 70 AD Roman Seige Of Jerusalem

While cleaning for Passover , together with the apocalyptic feeling that the coronavirus has generated , he felt it was time to clear his conscience , and he asked me to help him return the ballista stone to the Israel Antiquities Authority Out of all of the stories that we have done thus far on the subject of biblical archaeology , this perhaps is one of the most unique and original we have come across .
The stolen object that man returned for Passover is called a ballista stone , and it was used in a catapult in war time @ @ @ @ @ @ @ title photo in this article .
What makes this particular ballista stone so unique is that biblical archaeologists say it was likely used in the seige of Jerusalem by the Romans way back in 70 AD .
Wow , that ’ s very cool .
“ And Jesus went out , and departed from the temple : and his disciples came to him for to shew him the buildings of the temple .
And Jesus said unto them , See ye not all these things ?
verily I say unto you , There @ @ @ @ @ @ @ upon another , that shall not be thrown down.
” Matthew 24:1,2 ( KJB ) The verses in Matthew and Luke that describe the fall of Jerusalem at the hands of an invading army were fulfilling in type when the Romans laid seige to Jerusalem in 70 AD , and it will be fulfilled completely when the armies of Antichrist take it during the time of the great Tribulation .
The man who had stolen it said he was returning it now because the Passover is coming up , and with the coronavirus @ @ @ @ @ @ @ t want it on his conscience if the world was ending .

While cleaning for Passover, together with the apocalyptic feeling that the coronavirus has generated, he felt it was time to clear his conscience, and he asked me to help him return the ballista stone to the Israel Antiquities Authority
Out of all of the stories that we have done thus far on the subject of biblical archaeology, this perhaps is one of the most unique and original we have come across. The stolen object that man returned for Passover is called a ballista stone, and it was used in a catapult in war time, as I have illustrated in the title photo in this article. What makes this particular ballista stone so unique is that biblical archaeologists say it was likely used in the seige of Jerusalem by the Romans way back in 70 AD. Wow, that’s very cool.
“And Jesus went out, and departed from the temple: and his disciples came to him for to shew him the buildings of the temple. And Jesus said unto them, See ye not all these things? verily I say unto you, There shall not be left here one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down.” Matthew 24:1,2 (KJB)
The verses in Matthew and Luke that describe the fall of Jerusalem at the hands of an invading army were fulfilling in type when the Romans laid seige to Jerusalem in 70 AD, and it will be fulfilled completely when the armies of Antichrist take it during the time of the great Tribulation.
The man who had stolen it said he was returning it now because the Passover is coming up, and with the coronavirus spreading so fast, he didn’t want it on his conscience if the world was ending.
“And when ye shall see Jerusalem compassed with armies, then know that the desolation thereof is nigh. Then let them which are in Judaea flee to the mountains; and let them which are in the midst of it depart out; and let not them that are in the countries enter thereinto.” Luke 21:20,21 (KJB)
I don’t know about you, but the timing of this fascinating Passover story is suspiciously heaven-sent, and perhaps a prophetic harbinger of what is to come in 2020? You will read about it first here at Now The End Begins.
Fearing End of World From Coronavirus, 70 AD Ballista Thief Returns 2,000-Year-Old Artifact After 15 Years
FROM BREITBART NEWS: An Israeli man returned a 2,000-year-old catapult bolt to the Israel Antiquities Authority some 15 years after he took off with it while visiting the archaeological site of the Jerusalem Walls National Park in the City of David, saying he wanted to clear his conscience before the end of the world.
“The time has come to clear my conscience. It feels that the end of the world is near,” the remorseful man said, according to an Israel Antiquities Authority press release on Monday. The anonymous man didn’t return the artifact, also known as a ballista stone, directly but used a go-between, Moshe Manies, who agreed to keep his identity a secret.
The original theft occurred when two rebellious youths touring City of David site close to the Old City of Jerusalem came across the ballistae, which had been catapulted at fortifications, Manies said.
“One of the boys took one of the stones home. Meanwhile, he married and raised a family, and told me that for the past 15 years the stone has been weighing heavily on his heart,” Manies wrote in a Facebook post.
“And now, when he came across it while cleaning for Passover, together with the apocalyptic feeling that the coronavirus has generated, he felt it was time to clear his conscience, and he asked me to help him return it to the Israel Antiquities Authority,” Manies added.

nowtheendbegins--2020-03-17--The Coronavirus Outbreak Shows Clearly That President Trump Was Right All Along About Borders, Trade

The Coronavirus Outbreak Shows Clearly That President Trump Was Right All Along About Borders, Trade And Most Of All, He Was Right About China

Donald Trump has been insisting for years that our country has been too economically dependent on China , so it is sad that it took a global public health crisis like coronavirus to prove he was right all this time .
Even when he was only a candidate for president , Donald Trump hammered home the fact that the United States was too dependent on China in deals that were good for the Chinese and bad for America .
He warned against being overly-dependent on the Communist regime for our medicines , as well as other goods and services .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ that waited for a United States who had no control over their borders .
In one fell swoop , the COVID-19 coronavirus proved Donald Trump to be right on all of it , and then some .
As I write this , there are roughly 5,359 cases of coronavirus in the United States , or 0.001 % of the population infected .
Compared to the vast majority of other countries that is a very low rate of infection .
One reason for this is President Trump ’ s border policies for restricting travel @ @ @ @ @ @ @ verify as safe to enter our borders .
The Liberals have pilloried him mercilessly for doing it , but they should instead be thanking him as it has kept much of the current pandemic away from us .
It turns my stomach every time I see Liberal anarchists like Rob Reiner and Mark Ruffalo , people who pretend to be someone they ’ re not in order to get you to believe they are someone they ’ re not , spewing lie after lie against the president .
Donald Trump was right about @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is leading us forward strongly and confidently through the coronavirus outbreak .
What are the Liberals doing ?
Trying to create as much fear and panic as possible to cause a recession to prevent his re-election .
They hate Trump that much , and it would seem , they hate the everyday working man and woman just as much also .
Coronavirus outbreak shows Donald Trump was right all this time about the multi-tiered threat that is China FROM THE HILL : When he began imposing strategic tariffs on China in response to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , the liberals all of a sudden became free trade fundamentalists , predicting that this new “ trade war ” would harm the American economy because we have relied so heavily on cheap Chinese imports for so many years .
Instead , it was the Chinese economy that took a hard hit , while our economy at home surged to its strongest performance in half a century .
What happened ?
The answer is simple .
Just as manufacturers had once moved their factories to China to take advantage of cheap labor , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ exports to developed economies , these companies are now fleeing China for other countries that offer similar business advantages without all of the political baggage from Beijing .
The coronavirus outbreak around the world could dramatically accelerate the manufacturing exodus from China , as companies begin to recognize the perils of giving the authoritarian country so much power over their supply chains .
After Beijing placed hundreds of millions of its citizens under an oppressive quarantine , effectively shutting down most of its economy for weeks , the need to diversify production locations @ @ @ @ @ @ @ leaders around the world .
Businesses that followed the lead of the president , however , were already ahead of the curve .
The executives understood those artificial advantages that China always utilized to prop up its economy were going to disappear under the pressure of his tariffs , and the steps they took in anticipation of that , such as relocating production to other countries , ultimately reduced their exposure to the coronavirus crisis and its damaging consequences .
The reason for disengaging from China in the first place was to protect @ @ @ @ @ @ @ coronavirus could not have been predicted , there is always a significant risk from overdependence on any single country , especially an authoritarian one that will routinely break the rules in its quest to get ahead .
The coronavirus merely happened to be the crisis that demonstrated once and for all why the “ free trade ” status quo that was rooted in past decades was so dangerous to our country .
Incidentally , the coronavirus also validates the border security agenda of the president .
Closing the country off to travelers from @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of the most effective steps that we can take to limit its spread within our country , and Trump wasted no time in implementing that safeguard .
He was roundly criticized by the left , which was primarily concerned about the possibility that restricting travel from China could promote bias against Asians , but at this point pretty much everyone can agree on the importance of knowing whether people entering the United States from overseas might pose a security threat to American citizens .
That sounds an awful lot like the argument that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ our borders against rampant illegal immigration .
We need to know who is coming into our country so we can keep dangerous people out of our communities .
The president of course had no idea or advance knowledge of the coronavirus .
Trump just has a well crafted policy agenda that is equally well suited to protecting our country from the coronavirus as it is to creating a strong and growing economy that generates lasting and broad prosperity that reaches all American individuals and families .

What happened? The answer is simple. Just as manufacturers had once moved their factories to China to take advantage of cheap labor, weak regulations, and lower tariffs on exports to developed economies, these companies are now fleeing China for other countries that offer similar business advantages without all of the political baggage from Beijing.
The coronavirus outbreak around the world could dramatically accelerate the manufacturing exodus from China, as companies begin to recognize the perils of giving the authoritarian country so much power over their supply chains. After Beijing placed hundreds of millions of its citizens under an oppressive quarantine, effectively shutting down most of its economy for weeks, the need to diversify production locations should have become abundantly clear to business leaders around the world.
Businesses that followed the lead of the president, however, were already ahead of the curve. The executives understood those artificial advantages that China always utilized to prop up its economy were going to disappear under the pressure of his tariffs, and the steps they took in anticipation of that, such as relocating production to other countries, ultimately reduced their exposure to the coronavirus crisis and its damaging consequences.
The reason for disengaging from China in the first place was to protect American workers and businesses.
While the coronavirus could not have been predicted, there is always a significant risk from overdependence on any single country, especially an authoritarian one that will routinely break the rules in its quest to get ahead. The coronavirus merely happened to be the crisis that demonstrated once and for all why the “free trade” status quo that was rooted in past decades was so dangerous to our country.
Incidentally, the coronavirus also validates the border security agenda of the president. Closing the country off to travelers from areas affected by the outbreak is one of the most effective steps that we can take to limit its spread within our country, and Trump wasted no time in implementing that safeguard. He was roundly criticized by the left, which was primarily concerned about the possibility that restricting travel from China could promote bias against Asians, but at this point pretty much everyone can agree on the importance of knowing whether people entering the United States from overseas might pose a security threat to American citizens.
That sounds an awful lot like the argument that Trump makes about the need to secure our borders against rampant illegal immigration. We need to know who is coming into our country so we can keep dangerous people out of our communities. The president of course had no idea or advance knowledge of the coronavirus.

In Dead Of Night, Israel Approves Mass Surveillance Of Its Citizens Through Cellphone Tracking To Slow Spread Of COVID-19 Coronavirus

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said cabinet ministers approved the use of advanced digital monitoring tools to track carriers of the coronavirus in Israel through their cellphones for the next 30 days .
As of right now , Israel currently has 304 confirmed cases of COVID-19 coronavirus , with none dead and 4 already recovered from it out of a population of 8.7 million people .
So why , one wonders , is Israel taking such strong measures when they are not very hard hit ?
One such measure is attracting attention this morning , a vote by the Israeli government @ @ @ @ @ @ @ tracking their cellphones .
Normally this would requite a court order on a case by case basis , now it does not .
Historically , governments are very bad at rescinding ‘ temporary measures ’ passed to deal with crises .
Take for example the telephone tax passed by the American government in 1898 to deal with the Spanish American War .
When was that rescinded ?
Never , it is still a tax on the books in Washington today that Americans in one form or another are still paying .
Now apply @ @ @ @ @ @ @ on its citizens .
Will it help in stopping spread of the coronavirus ?
Yes , probably it will .
But all that juicy other information they will also be getting I predict will be far too tempting to pass up .
I say that when this COVID-19 crisis is over , the mass surveillance of cellphones in Israel to stop the outbreak will simply transmogrify into a ‘ tool to stop terrorism ’ .
Never let a good crisis go to waste , right ?
Netanyahu : Ministers in Israel have approved @ @ @ @ @ @ @ halt COVID-19 spread FROM TIMES OF ISRAEL : Such tracking technologies , which in large part rely on data from cellphones , have principally been used by the Shin Bet security service in counter-terrorism operations , and have raised major privacy concerns .
“ These tools will help us very much in locating the virus , locating those sick and stopping the spread of the virus , ” Netanyahu said in a live statement to the press in Jerusalem , as the number of infections in the country hit 298 .
Saying ministers @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Sunday , and stressing that it would only be in effect for a month , he said : “ We asked for strict oversight on this so that it isn ’ t abused.
” “ Israel is a democracy — we must uphold the balance between the rights of the individuals and the public needs .
And we are doing this , ” he added .
By designating the move an “ emergency measure , ” Netanyahu was able to bypass the Knesset ’ s subcommittee on clandestine services , which on Monday @ @ @ @ @ @ @ approve the surveillance .
The measure has faced criticism from human rights and privacy experts as effectively it means any person in Israel could come under surveillance by the Shin Bet , an organization with no public transparency requirements .
The proposal also goes far beyond the monitoring efforts used by other countries in their fights against the coronavirus .
The Shin Bet agency said it would not be used to crack down violators of quarantine .

Netanyahu: Ministers in Israel have approved mass surveillance of citizens through cellphones to halt COVID-19 spread
FROM TIMES OF ISRAEL: Such tracking technologies, which in large part rely on data from cellphones, have principally been used by the Shin Bet security service in counter-terrorism operations, and have raised major privacy concerns.
“These tools will help us very much in locating the virus, locating those sick and stopping the spread of the virus,” Netanyahu said in a live statement to the press in Jerusalem, as the number of infections in the country hit 298.
Shin Bet Director Nadav Argaman issued a statement on Tuesday saying that his agency would start delivering information about those citizens infected with the coronavirus to the Health Ministry after the government unanimously passed the request by the Health Ministry to use digital counter-terrorism tools to track the movements of coronavirus patients. source
Saying ministers debated the issue for six hours on Sunday, and stressing that it would only be in effect for a month, he said: “We asked for strict oversight on this so that it isn’t abused.”
“Israel is a democracy — we must uphold the balance between the rights of the individuals and the public needs. And we are doing this,” he added.
By designating the move an “emergency measure,” Netanyahu was able to bypass the Knesset’s subcommittee on clandestine services, which on Monday refrained from approving a government request to approve the surveillance.
The measure has faced criticism from human rights and privacy experts as effectively it means any person in Israel could come under surveillance by the Shin Bet, an organization with no public transparency requirements. The proposal also goes far beyond the monitoring efforts used by other countries in their fights against the coronavirus.

EVENT 201: COVID-19 Was Launched One Month After The Johns Hopkins Center And Bill Gates Hosted An ‘Invitation Only’ Global Pandemic Exercise

Bill Gates hosted a closed-door meeting for global elites and the invitation came with a COVID-19 coronavirus plush toy , a few months later thousands would be dead .
Welcome to the New World Order .
What I am about to show you is so unbelievable , so infused with conspiracy theory , that your mind will immediately reject it .
Yet , the information is 100 % true and taken from Johns Hopkins own website .
Let me take you back to the evening of October 18 , 2019 , to a gathering entitled ‘ Event 201 ’ , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ pandemic exercise ’ .
Of course , it was invitation only , and held behind closed doors .
The financing for this event came from none other than the Bill Gates Foundation .
To everyone who attended , they were given a cute and cuddly COVID-19 plush toy , the very one you see in the photo at the top of this article .
Can you imagine what kind of sick-minded marketing people could conceive of a coronavirus stuffed animal ?
Wake up , people , the New World Order is not playing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ no qualms of any kind about creating a plush toy out of a killer virus that to date has infected 181,377 people , and has killed 7,118 people , and they best part ?

Bill Gates hosted a closed-door meeting for global elites and the invitation came with a COVID-19 coronavirus plush toy, a few months later thousands would be dead. Welcome to the New World Order.
What I am about to show you is so unbelievable, so infused with conspiracy theory , that your mind will immediately reject it. Yet, the information is 100% true and taken from Johns Hopkins own website. Let me take you back to the evening of October 18, 2019, to a gathering entitled ‘Event 201’, something Johns Hopkins calls a ‘global pandemic exercise’. Of course, it was invitation only, and held behind closed doors. The financing for this event came from none other than the Bill Gates Foundation.
To everyone who attended, they were given a cute and cuddly COVID-19 plush toy, the very one you see in the photo at the top of this article. Can you imagine what kind of sick-minded marketing people could conceive of a coronavirus stuffed animal? Wake up, people, the New World Order is not playing around, and yes, they have no qualms of any kind about creating a plush toy out of a killer virus that to date has infected 181,377 people, and has killed 7,118 people, and they best part? They proudly display these statistics on the official Johns Hopkins website, click here to see it for yourself. I wonder if they have any of those cute and cuddly coronavirus plushies left?
The fact that Bill Gates was a host of this event surprises no one who is a regular reader of NTEB, no sir. Take a look:
In 1999, Gates gave over 20 million dollars to Johns Hopkins to establish a wing of the hospital where the Foundation was born. This foundation has always hidden behind the mantra of “Health and help” for women in third world countries. The thrust of the foundation has been working with the big Pharma companies, to create vaccines for the masses in these impoverished countries.
For years we’ve been watching as Microsoft founder Bill Gates, now retired from the company he founded, use his billions to give ‘free vaccinations‘ to people in third world countries. Now Bill has become a founding partner in another company, this one is called the ID2020 Alliance, and its goal is to give every human being on Earth a digital id. How do they plan on accomplishing this feat? By combining mandatory vaccinations with implantable microchips. Genius, isn’t it? And coming soon to a theater near you, as the saying goes.
The participants of Event 201, invited there by the rich and powerful elites that rule the world, sat and war-gamed how an outbreak of COVID-19 coronavirus might go. Looks like the meeting was a success because just one month to the day later, the first case of COVID-19 was reported in China, and well, you know the rest.

Bill Gates on Population Control
Why have Bill Gates and friends raised $4.3 BILLION to vaccinate 80 MILLION children in Third World Countries? Shouldn’t sufficient food supply and clean drinking water be the first priority. What good is a healthy immune system if you’re going to die of starvation or be poisoned by your water? WATCH and LISTEN to this video very carefully and you will understand the TRUE agenda behind their efforts. THERE ARE STERILIZATION AGENTS IN THE VACCINES, which will prevent these children from having children in the future. It’s really not about protecting their health at all.

This thing keeps getting weirder and weirder, and from and end times perspective, Pope Francis yesterday just kicked the current COVID-19 coronavirus New World Order panic into hyper mode. First we have the Revelation 17 scary imagery of Pope Francis going on walkabout through the deserted streets of Rome, with his 5-man security detail covering his every move, casting his gaze as if to say “I own this land, and I own you”. The pope was on a mission to make contact with his true source of strength and guidance, a person the bible calls the Queen of Heaven, and who the Roman Catholic church calls the Virgin Mary.
“But since we left off to burn incense to the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings unto her, we have wanted all things, and have been consumed by the sword and by the famine. So that the LORD could no longer bear, because of the evil of your doings, and because of the abominations which ye have committed; therefore is your land a desolation, and an astonishment, and a curse, without an inhabitant, as at this day.” Jeremiah 44:18,22 (KJB)
Italy is on lockdown right now, almost no one is allowed to walk the streets, no one except Pope Francis of course.

FROM THE ASSOCIATED PRESS: Pope Francis who recently had a cold, headed first to a Rome basilica, St. Mary Major, where he often stops to give thanks after returning from trips abroad. There he prayed before an icon of the Virgin Mary dedicated to the “salvation of the Roman people.”
“With his prayer, the Holy Father has invoked the end of the pandemic that is striking Italy and the world, implored for healing for the many sick, recalled the so many victims of these days and asked that their family members and friends find consolation and comfort,”′ Vatican spokesman Matteo Bruni said in a statement.
The Director of the Holy See Press Office, Matteo Bruni, announced the Pope’s visits in a communique on Sunday.
“This afternoon, just after 4 PM, Pope Francis left the Vatican and made a private visit to the Basilica of St. Mary Major, to offer a prayer to the Virgin Mary, Salus Populi Romani, where her icon is kept and venerated. Then, after taking a walk along the Via del Corso – as if making a pilgrimage – he visited the church of San Marcello on the Corso, where a miraculous crucifix is housed.

After that, the 83-year-old pope left the basilica, near Rome’s central train station, and headed toward central Piazza Venezia, strolling along a brief stretch of Via del Corso, a noted shopping street for Romans. He then ducked into a church that most tourists pass by, St. Marcel on the Corso.
The church keeps a “miraculous crucifix that in 1522 was carried in procession through the neighborhoods of the city so that the Great Plague of Rome ended,″ Bruni said.
Some 90 minutes after he left Vatican City, Francis was back.
In ordinary times, the Via del Corso would be thronged with Sunday strollers and window-shoppers, but very few Romans are on the streets these days. A national lock-down allows people to go out to work, to purchase essentials like food or medicine or to take care of those in need.
A sole cyclist was pedaling down the street when Francis, in his white robes and with a security detail walking behind, approached the St. Marcel church.
The pope’s prayerful foray across town came just hours after the Holy See announced that the Vatican’s Holy Week ceremonies will go ahead without the public Italy tries to contain its coronavirus outbreak. Bruni said “as far as Holy Week liturgical celebrations are concerned, I can specify that all are confirmed.”
But Bruni added: “As things stand, understudy are the ways they would be carried out and who would participate while respecting the security measures put in place to avoid spread of the coronavirus.” He added that in any case, faithful will be able to follow the ceremonies on TV, radio and through online media.
