Libya Got New Nukes 'In March'
Vienna - Turkey is now seen as a source of centrifuge parts shipped to Libya's nuclear weapons programme, diplomats said on Saturday, after revelations that Tripoli had received new clandestine shipments of equipment as late as this March.

Libya agreed in December 2003 to dismantle its weapons of mass destruction programmes but last March a container of components for sophisticated L-2 centrifuges capable of enriching uranium to bomb-grade levels arrived by boat in Libya, the Vienna-based International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) said in a confidential report.

Mining Of Raw Uranium Continues In Congo
SHINKOLOBWE, Congo - Business is booming in the mining zone that supplied uranium for the atomic bombs unleashed on Hiroshima and Nagasaki — despite a decree by Congo's president banning all mining activity here.

President Joseph Kabila ordered the zone closed three months ago amid growing concerns that unregulated nuclear materials could get into the hands of so-called rogue nations or terrorist groups. Yet 1,000 miles away from the capital, Kinshasa, thousands of diggers are still hacking away at a dark cavity of open earth in this southeastern village, filling thousands of burlap sacks a day with black soil rich in cobalt, copper — and radioactive uranium.

Lieberman's "Disengagement" Plan Calls For Exiling "Disloyal" Israeli Arabs
Transportation Minister Avigdor Lieberman (National Union) presented visiting Russian officials over the weekend with his "Plan for the Separation of Nations." The plan is based on the principle of separating Jews from Arabs, and includes the exiling of Israeli Arabs deemed disloyal to the state. At Sunday's cabinet meeting, Prime Minister Ariel Sharon condemned Lieberman's plan, saying, "We regard [Israeli Arabs] as part of the State of Israel."

"It would be right if the Quartet, including Russia, were to support my plan out of a deep understanding that only this way - and not via baseless plans - can it actually be possible to reach an end to the conflict and cancel the reasons leading up to it," Lieberman said after his meeting with Alexander Galkin, Russian President Vladimir Putin's personal representative in the Quartet for Mideast peace, and Russian Ambassador to Israel Gennady Tarasov.

Sharon Buys Another Week
Ariel Sharon continues to insist that his unilateral withdrawal plan be passed in its entirety. Despite efforts to find a compromise, he appears prepared even to fire ministers to procure a majority for his full withdrawal plan.

Egypt Tells Arafat: Reform Or Be Removed - Report
Egyptian Intelligence Chief Omar Suleiman has reportedly warned Palestinian Authority Chairman Yasser Arafat to relax his grip on the reins of Palestinian power or face the possibility that Egypt and the US will cease to block Prime Minister Ariel Sharon from carrying out his threat to "remove" the chairman.

According to a report Monday in the pan-Arab Al-Quds-al-Arabi, Suleiman handed Arafat three demands:

First, to unite all the Palestinian security forces under one command authority, and into three components. These include the police, the Preventative Security Service (equivalent of Israel's General Security Service), and the Palestinian foreign security service (equivalent of Israel's Mossad).

Comments
Apparently, Egyptian Intelligence Chief Omar Suleiman has put Palestinian Authority Chairman Yasser Arafat on notice.  He told Arafat that he must take a more symbolic role and yield more power to PA Prime Minister Ahmed Qurei or the shield of protection he enjoys will be removed.  

I do see Arafat giving way to Egypt's demands.  They do play a very big leadership role in the Arab community.  This could be the break that negotiators have been looking for to propel this peace agreement in the right direction.

Despite calls by Congo President Joseph Kabila, the mining of uranium is still said to be going strong.  The real concern is that a portion of the black market uranium will get into the hands of rogue third world countries.  It's inevitable and my fear is that we will live to see terrorists explode a nuclear device on American soil.  

For months Libya has been calling for Israel to lay down their nuclear arsenal and subject themselves to international inspectors.  Well, it's a good thing they did not yield to international pressure.  But it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out that Libya has never intended on disclosing their real nuclear capabilities.  Hiding weapons from the naive international inspectors is an art the Arab world has perfected and the world just seems to buy right into. 

I'm sorry, but I still believe Iraq had nuclear weapons and our attack against them was justified.  But as I've said many times, we didn't need a reason to take out what we perceived to be a hostile administration.  The truth of the matter is we better take out a few more before it's too late.  It’s believed that a dozen or more countries are on the verge of becoming nuclear capable.  That will prove to be a major problem in the future.

Israeli Transportation Minister Avigdor Lieberman has proposed an alternative plan to Ariel Sharon's disengagement plan.  The plan basically addresses the problem of the disloyal Israeli-Arab population and calls for them to be exiled. He feels that they are cooperating with enemies of Israel and will one day rise up fight to overthrow the state.

This would certainly be in Israel's best interest, but world opinion would never allow them to do such a thing.

The information I am bringing you doesn't necessarily mean that the Lord is coming at any moment (but He could).  The fact that Israel is a nation again is the real sign of His eminent return.  But the real tragedy is that many are living a life outside of Christ.  Some of you who are reading this article may not even live another day, month or year let alone go through the tribulation period.  Then where would you be?

Where will you spend eternity?
