For a man who had aspired to rule like the Roman god Jupiter, the pandemic has left Emmanuel Macron and his vision of a multilateral world order in tatters and his own leadership back in France in question.

This is exciting, now we get to see just what Emmanuel Macron is really made up of, and how he does or does not rebound from this current setback will show us if our previous assessment of his astonishing similarities to the biblical Antichrist were well founded or misplaced. Remember one thing, though, Adolf Hitler was looking like the Antichrist right up to the moment they put him in jail where everyone said his days were over. But they were just getting started. Quo vadis, Emmanuel Macron, quo vadis?

“Then shall stand up in his estate a raiser of taxes in the glory of the kingdom: but within few days he shall be destroyed, neither in anger, nor in battle. And in his estate shall stand up a vile person, to whom they shall not give the honour of the kingdom: but he shall come in peaceably, and obtain the kingdom by flatteries.” Daniel 11:20,21 (KJB)

Emmanuel Macron has repeatedly likened himself to the Roman god Jupiter, which is a very telling comparison if one is aware of ancient Rome and their oppression of the Jews in Israel. In 132 AD, the Bar-Kochba revolt against Rome took place because the Romans had erected a statue of their god Jupiter right on the Temple Mount. If Macron sees himself as Jupiter then that only further cements his standing as leader in the end times Antichrist sweepstakes.

“That he may take part of this ministry and apostleship, from which Judas by transgression fell, that he might go to his own place.” Acts 1:25 (KJB)

I will be watching with an extremely high interest level as Emmanuel Macron attempts to dig himself out of this hole, and restore his former glory. I am rooting for him to do just that. He’s come all the way out of his own place for such a time as this, and failure is not an option.

The Humbling of Emmanuel Macron

FROM BLOOMBERG: Just four months ago, with the gardens of his Elysee Palace in the background, the youngest French head of state since Napoleon boasted that the country “hasn’t known such energy in years.” With re-election two years away, he vowed his plans to cut taxes and reduce red tape would put France at the heart of a reinvigorated European Union.

Today, such confidence seems a world away after his struggle to get a grip on the coronavirus epidemic left Macron damaged at home and abroad.

The EU’s second-biggest economy registered its first case of Covid-19 in January but for weeks the government insisted that wearing a facemask was useless for the public, even as the disease coursed through French society. Macron didn’t impose a lockdown until March, when Italy and Spain had already shuttered most businesses. In a dramatic U-turn, the government is now encouraging people to wear masks when venturing outdoors.

One official in his office, speaking on condition of anonymity, acknowledged the government fumbled its response in the early stages, but insisted it has the situation under control now. Government spokeswoman Sibeth Ndiaye told Europe 1 radio Friday that the policy on masks had evolved along with the scientific advice.  A press officer at the Elysee declined to comment.

As the death toll in France climbed past 25,000, the president’s dithering was in stark contrast to Angela Merkel’s sober, methodical approach next door in Germany.

Macron had seemed to eclipse the German chancellor when he burst onto the stage in 2017, with Beethoven’s Ode to Joy, the European anthem, at his election-night rally. But as France tries to return to a new kind of normality with the tentative reopening of its economy on Monday, it’s piling up debt while Merkel has fiscal reserves to spare. Put simply, France will struggle to spend its way out the recession in the same way as its neighbor.

CLICK TO SEE WHAT EMMANUEL MACRON HAS BEEN UP TO

For a politician who’s gone toe-to-toe with Donald Trump and urged the EU to stand up to China, the scale of the crisis and his own role in it has forced a degree of introspection. As he said in one of several televised statements in April, “it’s a moment to start again from scratch.”

A government official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said it was too early to say who had handled the crisis better and pointed to France’s successes, such as treating its gravest cases in hospitals and coordinating with international allies on a vaccine conference.

With his approval ratings slipping, Macron himself has also recognized that his administration fell short. “Were we prepared for this crisis? Obviously, not enough,’’ he said last month. “This moment, let’s be honest, has revealed cracks.’’

For Philippe Maniere, president of crisis management consultancy Vae Solis, Macron’s making a political calculation. “He needs to change course to get back on his feet — he’s being tactical,” he said. Even before the crisis there were signs that Macron might have to adjust his approach, with his lectures on everything from Iran to climate change at global summits failing to produce results, despite the personal chemistry he seemed to enjoy with the U.S. president.

Macron couldn’t persuade Trump to stick with the Paris Climate Agreement, failed to keep the U.S. in the Iran nuclear deal or indeed stop it undermining the World Trade Organization. When Macron pursued a coordinated international push for a coronavirus vaccine, it became clear the U.S. was out for itself. White House tariff threats meanwhile forced the French president to suspend his plans to tax internet giants like Google and Amazon.com Inc. on their revenue from France.

At home, his first wobble came after the Yellow Vest protests – a movement sparked by a hike in gasoline taxes but fundamentally driven by anger at economic injustice and perceptions of the president’s at times arrogant manner. The seeds were sown as far back as 2018, when he ruffled feathers with a video that went viral of him scolding a teenager for not addressing him as “Mr. President” and spoke to the nation about inequality from a gold desk.

Outside France, his demand for EU reform had become increasingly shrill as opponents like the Dutch and the Austrians stonewalled his calls for tighter integration or, when he did win support for a euro-area budget, diluted his original proposals to the point of irrelevance.

All this meant that when disaster struck, his political capital was running low. With his handling of the virus coming under fire in France, his credibility with EU partners was further weakened and calls for joint euro-area bond issuance to fund the economic recovery were easily brushed off. His fall-back proposal of grants from an EU fund has fared little better so far.

Macron’s warnings that the EU risks collapse if the Dutch don’t accept his demands grow more hollow with each repetition.

Perhaps expectations were too great when he came to power in the aftermath of Trump’s shocking election victory and the Brexit referendum, promising a progressive renewal for France and Europe. Perhaps he was guilty of fueling those expectations with his pre-election talk of how France wanted its president to be god-like. But the impression among some European officials now is, ‘who is he to tell us what to do’?

If Macron is realizing that he may never strike the grand bargain he wants for Europe, disenchantment with the political prodigy set in even sooner back home.

Like most world leaders, Macron initially failed to grasp the dangers of Covid-19 and as March’s municipal elections approached with Italy and then Spain in lockdown, calls mounted for the ballot to be delayed.

But Macron feared that would expose him to political attacks, so the vote went ahead, potentially exposing thousands of people to infection. A day later, the president who had vowed to rein in the state, announced 300 billion euros of government loan guarantees and halted his economic reforms. The government made clear it wouldn’t hesitate to take equity stakes in companies if necessary and the state is paying more than half the private sector workforce to stay home.

Far-left leader Jean-Luc Melenchon attacked Macron for stealing his policy ideas. It’s an ironic political journey for Macron, the son of a doctor from northern France who studied at one of most prestigious institutions in Paris and worked as Rothschild & Co. investment banker. He’s spent more than a decade honing his world view among the educated, Parisian elites before he came to power promising to make France a “start-up nation” by paring back the role of the state and courting foreign investors.

But the truth is that Macron is grasping for a new identity. The Jupiter-like stance he’d envisaged before his election just an embarrassing memory. READ MORE

Emmanuel Macron Says That France Will Recognize A Palestinian State To Exist In June In Joint Partnership With Mohammed Bin Salman Of Saudi Arabia

Published

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

France is making plans to recognize a Palestinian state and could do so as early as June, French President Emmanuel Macron said in an interview with a French broadcaster on Wednesday.

Emmanuel Macron has been quiet lately, allowing President Trump to garner all the headlines, but he certainly has not been idle. Yesterday, Macron announced  that, in partnership with Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman of Saudi Arabia, France plans to recognize a state of Palestine to exist at an upcoming Two State Solution Summit in June to be held in Saudi Arabia. Emmanuel Macron and Mohammed bin Salman are the perfect end times Antichrist dream team. That’s the memo.

“And he said, Draw not nigh hither: put off thy shoes from off thy feet, for the place whereon thou standest is holy ground.” Exodus 3:5 (KJB)

Do you know the first that in the Bible that God called holy? It was a piece of dirt that Moses was standing on, God called it holy ground. Do you know what the land of Israel is? It’s God holy land. Do you know what Jerusalem is? It’s God’s holy city. This is exactly why it is the most fought-over parcel of real estate in human history, Satan wants it and God is going to let him have it for exactly 7 years. Do you know who will be the poster boy for that land grab, the human face so to speak? Emmanuel Macron, as we have always told you. Having Mohammed bin Salman along for the ride is the cherry on top of the sundae. Keep in mind that this Palestinian Two State Solution Conference takes place in June where it will still be springtime. TO THE FLIGHT!!!

France could recognize a Palestinian state in June, says Macron

FROM POLITICO EU: Macron said he hoped that by recognizing Palestinian statehood at a conference in June that France is co-hosting with Saudi Arabia pushing for a two-state solution, attendees who do not formally recognize Israel would in turn do so.

“We must move toward recognition, and we will do so in the coming months,” said the French president. “I’m not doing it for unity, or to please this or that person. I’m doing it because at some point it will be fair,” he said.

Macron’s comments come after Israel resumed its bombardment of the Gaza Strip last month when a two-month-long truce came to an end and ceasefire talks broke down between Israel and the militant group Hamas. Israel has since halted the delivery of humanitarian aid to the Palestinian enclave.

Israel’s war in Gaza was triggered by Hamas’s Oct. 7, 2023, assault against southern Israel during which 1,200 people were killed and 250 were taken hostage. The Hamas-run Gazan Health Ministry says more than 50,000 people in Gaza have died in the ensuing conflict. That figure includes both civilian and combatant fatalities. The Israeli-Palestinian conflict resonates deeply in France, which is home to Europe’s largest Jewish and Muslim communities. Israel is also home to a large French-speaking community that has kept strong ties to France.

France has always been in favor of a two-state solution but has resisted calls to recognize a Palestinian state, often arguing that Paris would only do so if it served the peace process.

Macron’s comments came at the end of a three-day trip to Egypt, during which he visited a hospital treating Palestinians in the city of El Arish, near the border with Gaza.

“I want to believe in peace; today the conflict has intensified and it’s terrible … Since March 2, there’s nothing going in [to the Gaza Strip] — no water, no food, no medication, and none of the injured are coming out,” Macron said.

Macron’s decision is likely to antagonize Israel and draw a backlash from Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who says that recognizing Palestinian statehood now is effectively rewarding terrorism.

“A ‘unilateral recognition’ of a fictional Palestinian state, by any country, in the reality that we all know, will be a prize for terror and a boost for Hamas. These kind of actions will not bring peace, security and stability in our region closer — but the opposite: they only push them further away,” Israeli Foreign Affairs Minister Gideon Sa’ar said on X. The French Jewish umbrella group Crif on Thursday slammed Macron’s decision to recognize a Palestinian state, calling it “an unacceptable political victory” for Hamas while dozens of Israeli hostages are still being held in Gaza.

Emmanuel Macron of France is planning to recognise a Palestinian state within months and could make the move at a UN conference in New York in June on settling the conflict between Israel and the Palestinians, President Emmanuel Macron said Wednesday. He will be joined by Mohammed bin Salman of Saudi Arabia.

France Issuing A Draconian ‘Invasion Guide’ To Citizens As President Emmanuel Macron Warns Europe Must Begin Preparing For Imminent Global War

Published

France issuing its citizens an invasion guide – including how to survive a nuclear attack – after Emmanuel Macron warned Europe must begin preparing for war

France is called the City of Lights for its romantic beauty, we all have seen the pictures of beautiful sidewalk cafes in Paris where croissant and espresso are elegantly consumed in leisurely fashion. But we have all also seen the haunting, gut-wrenching images of the Nazi tanks rolling down the Champs Elysée, the French forces and people cowering in utter terror. Perhaps this is what went through the mind of Emmanuel Macron as France released its 20-page ‘Invasion Guide’ to World War 3.

“The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun. Is there any thing whereof it may be said, See, this is new? it hath been already of old time, which was before us.” Ecclesiastes 1:9,10 (KJB)

Macron’s ‘Invasion Guide’ is broken up into three different parts:

  • ‘Protecting yourself’ – a section intended to raise solidarity when it comes to protecting oneself and neighbours. This first part also lists the survival kit to have at home in the event of a serious crisis. The kit includes at least six litres of bottled water, ten canned goods, batteries and a flashlight in case of a power cut.
  • ‘What to do in the event of an alert’ – a part detailing the actions one must take in the event of an imminent threat. This chapter lists emergency numbers, radio frequencies, as well as tips like closing all doors in the event of a nuclear accident.
  • ‘Get involved’ – this final section explains how to sign up to a reserve force, whether military or communal. source

You don’t have to be a YouTube prophet to this war coming, your King James Bible tells you that this period of time is all about wars and rumours of wars, and so it is. WWI prepared the land for the Jews, WWII prepared the Jews for the land, and WWIII will prepare the Jews for the time of Jacob’s trouble. When war happens, you sure won’t be able to say we didn’t warn you. That’s the memo.

France issues ‘Invasion Guide’ as Macron says prepare for war

FROM THE DAILY MAIL UK: France is set to issue a survival manual to households across the country, warning citizens how to respond to an invasion or any other ‘imminent threat’. The dramatic move comes as tensions rise in Europe and fears grow over Russia’s aggressive tactics.

The new 20-page booklet, reportedly packed with 63 measures, will advise the French on how to protect themselves and their families in the event of armed conflict, natural disasters, industrial accidents or even a nuclear leak. It will include tips on how to create a ‘survival kit’ with essentials including six litres of water, canned food, batteries, a torch and basic medical supplies such as paracetamol and bandages.

Crucially, it will offer advice on what to do if an attack is imminent, including how to join local defence efforts, such as signing up for reserve units or firefighting groups. Citizens will also be told to ‘lock their doors’ in the event of a nuclear incident  –  advice that has already drawn ridicule from commentators. Despite the alarming content, the French government insists the booklet is not a direct response to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

President Emmanuel Macron has previously warned that Europe must be prepared to confront the ‘Russian threat’ and adapt to the possibility that America could scale back its military support.

Earlier this week, Macron revealed that French fighter jets equipped with new generation hypersonic nuclear missiles will be sent to the German border as part of his bid to renew France’s airborne nuclear deterrent.

Officials from the General Secretariat for Defence and National Security (SGDSN), which oversaw the booklet’s creation, claim the aim of the survival guide is simply to bolster France’s resilience in the face of ‘all types of crises’.

The decision to draft the booklet reportedly dates back to 2022, in the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic, as part of a national strategy to improve public preparedness. But the timing of its release – expected before summer if approved by Prime Minister François Bayrou – has raised eyebrows. French newspaper Le Figaro noted that the kit’s rollout ‘could easily suggest that the state is reacting to the unstable international situation’. Macron has recently called for Europe to rearm in the face of Russia’s aggression in Ukraine and America’s wavering commitment to upholding European security under Donald Trump. READ MORE

The French government is preparing a survival guide for French households to prepare them for an emergency such as an armed conflict. We take a look at what’s in the pamphlet and what other European nations are doing to prepare their citizens for worst-case scenarios. Finally, we explain how this guidebook is far from the only one that’s part of French life.  

Hitler’s merciless bombing of Warsaw, Poland, strikes fear into the hearts of citizens around the world. On June 16, 1940 a radio announcement conveys news of France’s capitulation.

French President Emmanuel Macron And King Abdullah II Of Jordan Join Forces Today In France To Demand ‘Immediate End’ To Israel Defending Itself In Gaza

Published

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

King Abdullah II of Jordan arrived at the Élysée Palace in Paris on Wednesday, where he was received by French President Emmanuel Macron to discuss Israel.

Today over in France, Emmanuel Macron welcomed King Abdullah II of Jordan into the Palace, and top of their list of ‘action items’ to discuss was how to stop Israel from continuing to neutralize the existential threat posed by Palestinian terror group Hamas. Both Macron and King Abdullah demanded an ‘immediate end’ to the recently-renewed attacks by Israel on Hamas. Macron was seen in the main photo for this article grinning like Nicolae Carpathia, shaking hands in agreement with the Jordanian king.

And a mighty king shall stand up, that shall rule with great dominion, and do according to his will.” Daniel 11:3 (KJB)

With Donald Trump back in the White House, bombing Yemen and threatening Iran, the temperature in the Middle East continues to push toward the boiling point. We told you last week about the war games exercises between Russia, China and Iran, leading one to speculate that Russia and China would back Iran up in the case of attack. The Jerusalem Post today is reporting on the IDF entering into the Netzarim Corridor with tanks as Hamas calls for a global siege on US and Israel embassies. Yes sir, all the elements are, once again, firmly in place for end times escalation. That’s the memo.

King Abdullah II calls for immediate end to violations in Jerusalem in meeting with Macron

FROM ROYA NEWS: During joint statements with Macron, King Abdullah condemned the ongoing violations against Islamic and Christian holy sites in Jerusalem, stating that such actions escalate tensions and must stop immediately.

He also warned that the forced displacement of Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza threatens to expand the conflict and further destabilize the region. Addressing Israeli Occupation’s renewed attacks on Gaza, the King described them as a highly dangerous step that worsens an already dire humanitarian crisis.

“We call for a permanent ceasefire and the release of all hostages held by Hamas in Gaza,” Macron added.

For his part, President Macron called Israeli Occupation’s resumed strikes in Gaza a “major setback” and stressed that a military solution is not viable. Speaking alongside King Abdullah at the Élysée Palace, Macron urged for an immediate halt to hostilities and a resumption of negotiations under US mediation. READ MORE
