Five explosions were reported heard across Tehran and the nearby city of Karaj early on Saturday morning, according to Iranian media, in what is alleged to be the beginning of an Israeli retaliatory attack on Iran.

Earlier today, we told you about the shipment of US F-16s that arrived in the Middle East to be put in place to defend against an attack from Iran after Israel began retaliatory air strikes against the terror regime. About 45 minutes ago Israel time, those strikes began and they are precise and deadly. Early reports coming in are saying some of the strikes are occurring near Iranian nuclear facilities.

“The ram which thou sawest having two horns are the kings of Media and Persia.” Daniel 8:20 (KJB)

It appears as of this writing, that the attacks are currently ongoing, and are meant to be a very strong deterrent to Iran. The Biden administration for their part is trying, as usual, to prevent any real damage to Tehran by Israel. Hopefully, Netanyahu will see past that and go and do what he knows must be done. Wiping out Hamas and Hezbollah only works if the head of the snake, Iran, is neutralized as well. Now the long-awaited reprisal has begun, the only question is will Iran respond, and if so, how hard? This is a breaking news story and this article will be updated as new information comes in.

Israel confirms it has struck Iran, as explosions rock Tehran

FROM THE JERUSALEM POST: Israeli officials confirmed to Army Radio that Israel had started striking targets across Iran. “The IDF is currently attacking precise targets in Iran,” IDF Spokesperson Daniel Hagari said in a statement. “This is in response to persisting attacks by the Iranian regime on the State of Israel.”The IDF is completely prepared in attack and in defense. We are following the developments from Iran and its proxies in the region.”

IDF says airstrikes – 4 weeks after Iran fired 200 ballistic missiles at Israel – are response to regime’s attacks; US backs Israeli ‘self-defense’; no change to home front guidelines

Reports of explosions at the Imam Khomeini International Airport in the Iranian capital were also received. Arab media reported that Israel attacked the location of the headquarters of the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps in Iran.

Looks like Israel’s attack was a “preparation”:

Destroyed air defense en route to Iran in Syria & Iraq

Destroyed radars of S-300 & S-400 air defense in Iran

Now that Iran’s air defense is fully blinded, Israel can freely attack its nuclear facilities.

There were no planes flying over Syria or northern Iraq during the time of the suspected attack. Iran closed its airspace following the attack, according to Maariv. The White House was notified shortly before the strikes on Tehran began, according to Fox News. Israel’s Security Cabinet also convened in order to approve the strikes. Karaj one of the cities where explosions were heard contains one of Iran’s nuclear power plants.

On Friday, a fire was reported at an Iranian Defense Ministry site in Tehran, although the Tehran Fire Department denied any connection. Explosions were also heard in Syria and Iraq, and air defense systems were reportedly activated, according to Maariv. Syrian media confirmed that Syrian air defense confronted aerial “hostile targets” around Damascus early Saturday morning. READ MORE

US Central Command announced on Friday that F-16 fighter jets have arrived in the Middle East from Germany ahead of an impending Israeli strike on Iran.

For the past few weeks, the entire Middle East region has been on edge, waiting for Israel to answer Iran back for, not one, but two military strikes against them. It looks like the moment of decision has arrived, borne witness to by the arrival of a squadron of F-16 fighter jets in the Middle East, courtesy of the United States. I think we can safely say that it’s about to go down.

“Every purpose is established by counsel: and with good advice make war.” Proverbs 20:18 (KJB)

It has been exciting to see Israel come roaring to life and taking the fight to their enemies instead of simply responding, but know this. Without taking out the nuclear weapons capabilities of Iran, beating Hamas and Hezbollah doesn’t amount to a hill of beans. Hamas is funded by Iran and so is Hezbollah, so that means the funding of terrorism will only stop when Iran is neutered. Iran has to go. Now.

US F-16s arrive in Middle East as Israel prepares for Iran strike

FROM AL-MONITOR: “US Air Force F-16s from the 480th Fighter Squadron based at Spangdahlem Air Base, Germany arrive in the US Central Command area of responsibility,” CENTCOM wrote on X Friday. CENTCOM did not specify the exact Middle East base or bases the F-16s had reached. The nearest base to Israel is the Muwaffaq Salti Air Base in Jordan’s Azraq that has served as a main hub for US air force operations in the region.

Earlier this month, a squadron of US F-15s arrived at an undisclosed base, joining F-16s, advanced stealth F-22 Raptors and a number of US Navy ships already in the region. The reinforcements have arrived as Israel prepares for its promised retaliatory attack in response to Iran’s Oct. 1 ballistic missile attack on Israel, which came after the Israeli military’s killing of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah and Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps commander Abbas Nilforoushan.

Israel’s plans were thrown off balance over the past week by a Hezbollah drone strike on Netanyahu’s private residence in Caesarea on Oct. 19 as well as a Pentagon leak that revealed alleged Israeli military preparations to attack Iran. The United States hopes, that despite the turbulence, Israel will keep its word on an informal agreement between the two nations in which Washington promised to reward Israel for not striking Iranian nuclear and oil facilities.

Meanwhile, the Pentagon said on Thursday that the US State Department has approved a potential $440 million sale of TOW missiles to Saudi Arabia.

“The proposed sale will improve the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia’s capability to meet current and future threats by enhancing the strength of its homeland defense,” the Pentagon’s statement read.

The Pentagon added that the sale “will support the foreign policy goals and national security objectives of the United States by improving the security of a partner country that is a force for political stability and economic progress in the Gulf Region.” READ MORE

The signs are everywhere that America’s next civil war has already started, we tell you how it all will end according to your King James Bible

As a new poll shows that more than a quarter of Americans believe civil war could break out after this year’s presidential election – the signs that the next one has already started are everywhere, says Stephen Marche, whose book charts what could happen next. Yet in that book, Marche completely ignores things like Barack Obama’s dystopian movie ‘Leave The World Behind’ which is a literal depiction of the US government declaring war on its own people, and instead holds up Donald Trump as the problem. Well, that’s a problem, and that’s the memo.

“When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice: but when the wicked beareth rule, the people mourn.” Proverbs 29:2 (KJB)

On this episode of the NTEB Prophecy News Podcast, we live in a world that is upside down and underwater, and growing worse by the day. Black Lives Matter and ANTIFA were praised for 6 months worth of murder, mayhem, looting and rioting, while the events that took place on one day for 6 hours on January 6th are held up as the ‘greatest attack on America’ since Pearl Harbor. Something is very wrong with that picture, but it indeed is as The Outer Limits warned us back in the 1960’s, “don’t adjust your set, we are in control of the transmission.” The Deep State that runs America, the B613 lurking in the shadows, is very much in control of the incessant and unceasing transmission of information we are bombarded with on a daily basis. Their handpicked candidate is Kamala Harris, but her campaign is floundering at the moment as Trump’s star is on the rise. Barack Obama has a ‘nuclear option’ to save it, but will he use it? That’s the question we ask on this edition of the Prophecy News Podcast.

These programs would not be possible without your generous support. Listen to just a few of the recent comments we have gotten:

• I  thanked God for sending to your website in 2015 , I  live in the South of France near Nice and let me tell you here there isn’t any Bible Believing church at all, the sad reality of France is that is full of Freemasons and Muslims. You came to me at the time I  was going to take my own life because of my job. You’re anointed person and I pray for you, family  and  ministry because you’re a blessing to all of us. May God bless you always. I know I’ll meet you in heaven one day. Lots of Love from your sister in Christ, Paula.
• “Hi Geoffrey and staff, Today is my one year anniversary that I got saved on your podcast!  I am now a KJB only, I threw away my other two versions I had.  I was shocked to learn of the differences and how the new versions twist the words of God, and dilute the message at best. Thank you for the fabulous bible  education and fire for the Lord.  I donate on your website throughout the year.  Thanks for all that you do.” Donna

• “The sole purpose of this email to you is to let you know how much we have been blessed by your amazing ministry/website. ‘We’ is my wife and I, in our early forties, 3 kids, professing, churchgoing, bible believing Christians in The Netherlands.  Since two months, I listen to your bible studies on Sunday evening, and since this week also to your prophecy podcast. I listen to them in the archives, because of the 6 hour time difference. The shofar and the blessing at 0:30 into the study never fails to make tears in my eyes. We are praying for you, we are praying for your voice, that it lasts in these incredible busy times for you. Listening to your podcasts, you seem to do it effortlessly, talking, scanning the chatbox for questions, diving into the texts, from Genesis to Revelation and everything in between, I love it when you realize after 1:30h into the study, actually a lot more subjects need to be addressed! Thank you for all your work and effort, you are doing an amazing job. Although it all seems effortlessly, I know it is not…Our faith is strengthened by your work and we are able to testify in a better way to the people around us!” Wouter D. van der Wiel
• “Wanted to send you encouragement and thank you for all you are doing!! I’ve been reading from this website for about 5 years and I’ve been on this at least 10 times a day. It’s the most honest prophecy website in history. And you have ministered to me greatly. This lockdown has been amazing as God gets us unto himself and smooths out the paths for us. I was reading devotional from Kenneth Copeland and during that time you had really hit That ministries hard. I was not Word Faith but I was feeding off his teaching. During this time I have removed Kenneth Copeland I wanted to thank you for your exposure of his ministry. Holy Spirit is truly the leader of all truths. The bible study on Bill Gates was tremendous. And I had the same check in my spirit as you did. He’s the guy that gonna lead this one world revolution Amazing times we live in. I’m super excited and living in total victory and peace. Once again thank you for the time you put in your reward in heaven will truly be great. Looking forward to this coming week. My prayer tonight is this …Father send Your Son!! DG
• “Thank you oh so much for sound teaching. I am so thankful and blessed for clicking on your channel. I have been on your Facebook page since 2011 and never subscribed to you-tube channel until today. I loved the live recording of singing, what a delight to hear the joy of the Lord in the voices of the congregation. So wonderful to hear the part about Luke 12:36, that has made my eyebrows furrow when I read and therefore I have always steadfast to not leaning on my own understanding. May God continue to bless you, your family friends and loved ones. All Glory be to Jesus, my Saviour Redeemer and King, Amen.” Susan Anderson
• “Loved this teaching! Presented in a clear contextual manner that was easy to follow along. You connected the dots for me that had previously brought so much confusion, namely the 4th seal covenant, the 5th seal tribulation saints, and the 6th seal 2nd Coming of Christ AFTER the wedding of the Body/Bride of Christ IN HEAVEN. Wow, after 41 years since my being born again by the Holy Spirit in to the Body of Christ, I finally have the answers to end the confusion. What joy and peace has flooded my heart! Thank you for this encouraging teaching of the Word.” SB
• “I am from Sri Lanka and listen to the radio Bible study every week.” Nihal Perera

Nothing thrills my soul like teaching the word of God, it is what the Lord called me to do 29 years ago, and Now The End Begins is the vehicle in which I am able to do it. How exciting it is to be able to teach the Bible to tens of thousands of people per year. Like I told you with the first post of 2020, I have dedicated myself now full-time to NTEB, and it is only through your generous support that such a thing is possible.
