De aquí a no mucho tiempo 
sufrirán bajo sus juicios".-
Ms 30, 1903.

"El terrible terremoto que azotó a San Francisco* será seguido por 
otras manifestaciones del poder de Dios. Su ley ha sido transgredida. 
Las ciudades se han contaminado con el pecado. Estudiad la 
historia de Nínive. Mediante Jonás, Dios le envió un mensaje a 
esa ciudad perversa... Muchos mensajes semejantes se darían 
en nuestro tiempo, si las ciudades impías se arrepintiesen como lo hizo Nínive".
-Ms 61a, Junio 3, 1906.

"Aun en las ciudades donde han caído los juicios de Dios como consecuencia de la transgresión, 
no hay señal de arrepentimiento. Los bares [de bebidas y bailes] todavía están abiertos y 
se mantienen muchas tentaciones ante la gente".-
Carta 268, Agosto 20, 1906.


"¡Ojalá que el pueblo de Dios tuviera una noción de
destrucción 
inminente de
millares de ciudades, ahora casi [totalmente] 
entregadas a la idolatría!"

buildings rising story after story toward heaven. These buildings were warranted to be 
fireproof, and they were erected to glorify their owners and builders. . . .The scene that 
next passed before me was an alarm of fire. Men looked at the lofty and supposedly fireproof 
buildings and said: "They are perfectly safe." But these buildings were consumed as if made 
of pitch.
The fire engines could do nothing to stay the destruction. The firemen were unable 
to operate the engines.

piso tras piso, se elevaban hacia el cielo.
Esos inmuebles que eran la gloria de sus propietarios

fue una alarma de incendio. Los hombres miraban a esos altos edificios, reputados

"Las Palabras de Benjamin Franklin: "Aquellos que puedan ceder libertad
esencial para obtener un poco de seguridad temporera, no se merecen ni libertad ni seguridad"
 Historical Review of Pennsylvania. This sentence was much used in the Revolutionary period. It occurs even so early 
as November, 1755, in an answer by the Assembly of Pennsylvania to the Governor, and forms the motto 
of Franklin’s “Historical Review,” 1759, appearing also in the body of the work.—Frothingham:
 Rise of the Republic of the United States, p. 413. .

"In times like these, there is likely to be a clamor to crack down on the freedoms Americans
historically have enjoyed.
Chaos always gives government an opportunity to expand,
inevitably, at the expense of freedom.  In such times, we would do well to heed the words 
of Ben Franklin:
"They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary
safety deserve neither liberty nor safety." 
And, we must know, we will get neither

Washington -- After attacks from the air and the mail, officials worry the nation's food s

urging the government to protect the nation's food supply. Tennessee Republican Bill 
Frist, the Senate's only doctor, tells The Associated Press he's turning his attention

for combating bioterrorism, upgrading computers, training workers and improving health 
laboratories. The government considers the most likely targets to be fruits and vegetables 
that people eat raw, and cattle that could be infected with fast-spreading foot-and-mouth 
disease....To deter potential terrorists, Congress is considering hiring hundreds of new 
food inspectors and lab technicians, and empowering the government to seize or recall 
tainted products and inspect food makers' records. The Agriculture Department has put

Bush signs antiterrorism Bill

WASHINGTON (AP) - President Bush (news - web sites) on Friday signed a 
sweeping anti-terrorism bill into law, giving police and intelligence agencies 
vast new powers to ``counter a threat like no other our nation has ever faced.''..
...
``This government will enforce this law with all the urgency of a nation at war,'' 
Bush said.
The legislation, while somewhat weakened from the administration's 
original proposal, expands the FBI (news - web sites)'s wiretapping and electronic 
surveillance authority and imposes stronger penalties for harboring or financing 
terrorists. It increases the number of crimes considered terrorist acts and toughens 
the punishment for committing them.
The bill also gives police wide-ranging new 
anti-terrorism powers to secretly search people's homes and business records 
and to eavesdrop on telephone and computer conversations
.....Lawmakers, 
worried about possible abuse of the new wiretapping and surveillance powers, 
placed a four-year cap on that part of the legislation.
``It gives us the time to 
investigate whether there were any outrageous abuses,'' Sen. Dianne Feinstein 
(news - bio - voting record), D-Calif., said.....The House inserted an expiration 
date for the new wiretapping and electronic surveillance powers. Under the bill, 
Congress has to renew the anti-terrorism legislation before Dec. 31, 2005
, or the 
eavesdropping sections expire.
Ashcroft and Bush fought strongly against that 
provision, but Republican leaders in the House told them the bill could not muster 
a majority without it.
The bill is H.R. 3162.

US Warns Citizens Abroad of Possible Retaliation

WASHINGTON (LifeLine News) - The U.S. government warned Americans abroad Sunday that 
its attacks on Afghanistan may lead to strong anti-American feelings and retaliation against U.S. 

citizens and interests.
In a public announcement issued after the attacks began, the State 
Department advised Americans to leave Afghanistan. Few are thought to remain, except in 
parts of the country under the control of the Northern Alliance.
The announcement said: `
]`The U.S. Government initiated military action today pursuant to its inherent right of self-defense... 
This action may result in strong anti-American sentiment and retaliatory actions against U.S. 
citizens and interests throughout the world by terrorists and those who are sympathetic 
to or otherwise support terrorism.....''

New Terror to Freedom

"At first it was called "Operation Infinite Justice." Just our luck: The codename teed off 
Muslim clerics more fluent in theology than our Christian president. Apparently missing 
a few Sunday School classes, Bush failed to realize that – Uncle Sam's ambitions aside – 
only God can mete out infinite justice. So, to appease the Islamic scholars, Bush and Co. 
decided to tee off the civil libertarians instead.
The antiterrorist terror campaign was 
re-christened "Operation Enduring Freedom."
To be fair, while lacking the retributive 
ferocity of the first, the new moniker still sounds patriotic enough to fit somewhere in a 
Bruce Springsteen lyric. If only it weren't a bucket of bunk.....As America laces up its 
combat boots and starts taking inventory of its munitions and supplies, those of us leaving
the cammies in the closet for now should take a quick inventory of our liberties."

Civil Liberties and Hill

"ASHCROFT INITIALLY WANTED Congress to pass his anti-terrorism package by week’s 
end, but it wasn’t only liberal Democrats who had objections. House Republican leader 
Dick Armey emerged from a midweek meeting with Ashcroft and other congressional 
leaders openly cool to the rushed timetable. When reporters asked how long it would 
take to reach consensus for passage, Armey said several weeks. Ashcroft will appear 
before the Senate Judiciary Committee on Tuesday to lobby for his proposals. The notion 
that the Senate would pass his package without debate, or even holding a hearing, is not 
the way Congress does business.
Ashcroft can be forgiven for thinking he could skip the 
normal legislative process given the enormity of the events he is dealing with as the nation’s 
chief law-enforcement officer. But the coalition of groups and lawmakers who see themselves 
as protectors of civil liberties also got a wake-up call on that fateful Tuesday,
and that is that 
they must maintain their vigilance in the face of almost overwhelming pressure to do otherwise 
in the name of national security....Ashcroft would like authority for the government to indefinitely 
detain and possibly deport immigrants if there’s any suspicion they are linked to terrorist 
activity.....One provision favored by Ashcroft would give the Immigration and Naturalization 
Service (INS) rather than a judge, as under current law, the power to declare someone a 
terrorist. That is one of several areas that unite right and left, and where Ashcroft will almost 
certainly not get what he wants...."

trying to "ensure our safety and security." But how can this be done if we lose everything 
for which our founding fathers fought?...

The United Nations says attacks prove need for Global Court

NEW YORK — Legal experts converging on the United Nations this week to hammer 
out details of a global criminal court said yesterday that the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks 
demonstrate the need for a tribunal to prosecute the worst humanitarian crimes...T
The United States opposes the court, fearing it would be used to target American soldiers 
who participate in international peacekeeping missions and other operations.
Prospects of U.S. military strikes in the war on terrorism, sparked by the attacks 
on New York and the Pentagon, appear likely to stiffen U.S. opposition to the court...."

President Bush: The Tools for the FBI against Terrorism

"....First, what we've seen is these terrorists are very sophisticated, and so are their 
communications.  They must -- their calls must be penetrated when we feel there's a 
threat to America. 
 We've got to know what's on their mind.  And so, therefore, we 
must give the FBI the ability to track calls when they make calls from different phones, 
for example. We're asking Congress for the authority to hold suspected terrorists who 
are in the process of being deported, until they're deported. 
 That seems to make sense 
-- (laughter) -- that if a suspected terrorist is detained, and our nation has decided to 
deport the person, then they ought to be held in custody until the action actually takes 
place.  We believe it's a necessary tool to make America a safe place....I want you 
to know that every one of the proposals we've made on Capitol Hill, carried by the 
Attorney General, has been carefully reviewed.
They are measured requests, they 
are responsible requests, they are constitutional requests.  Ours is a land that 
values the constitutional rights of every citizen.  And we will honor those rights, 
of course....

US still can't pinpoint Bin Laden

Action against Osama bin Laden by American-led special forces remains on hold 
today because US intelligence still cannot locate him....
no direct attack on Bin Laden 
can be scheduled. With President George Bush having prepared America and the 
world for early military retaliation, persistent delay could become politically embarrassing.
But government sources in London applaud Washington's caution, in being unwilling 
to move until it is sure it knows what it is attacking. The coalition recognizes that it would 
be a bitter blow to move against Bin Laden and fail...."

NICOSIA — Lebanon has ruled out helping the United States in the fight 
against terrorism.

Lebanese officials said the government in Beirut has agreed that it will not relay 
information on those living in the country. In addition, the officials said, Beirut will

in terrorism.
The United States has asked the Lebanese government to hand 
over at least 40 suspected terrorists, many of them from the Iranian-sponsored 
Hizbullah group, Lebanese sources said..."Why should we be asked to support 
the United States, which extends unlimited support for Israel's war of annihilation

MOGADISHU, Somalia (AP) - Thousands of Somalis carried images of Osama bin 
Laden (news - web sites) and placards criticizing American policy toward the Muslim 
world during a demonstration Sunday that the government tried to discourage.
Hundreds of members of the new police force stood by as Sheikh Ahmed Dhisow,

Telegraph has learnt that the Iraqi leader had been providing al-Qaeda, Osama bin 
Laden's terrorist network, with funding, logistical back-up and advanced weapons 
training. His operations reached a "frantic pace" in the past few months, according 
to Western intelligence officials...." News.Telegraph.co.uk/Sept. 24, 2001.

Iran would join the Coalition if coordinated by United Nations

"Iranian Foreign Minister Kamal Kharrazi said yesterday Tehran would join an 
international coalition to fight terrorism if it was coordinated by the United Nations. 
"Iran will cooperate in the fight against terrorism as part of an international effort and 
under the auspices of the United Nations," state television quoted Kharrazi as saying
 in remarks made during a visit to parliament.
The television gave no further details but Kharrazi normally visits parliament to hold 
closed-door meetings with deputies on important international developments. Analysts, 
noting Iran did not join the UN-backed multinational force which drove Iraqi troops from 
Kuwait in 1991,
said Kharrazi's comments raised prospects of closer links between 
Iran and Washington on international security issues. Iran, which has strongly condemned 
the suicide attacks in New York and Washington, has been under Western pressure to 
play an active role in the drive to fight world terrorism.
But Tehran has opposed any 
military attack on its eastern neighbour for fear of a new flood of refugees to add to the 
more than two million Afghans it already hosts.....Despite its dislike of Afghanistan's 
Taliban rulers, Tehran has made it clear it would not allow its airspace to be used to 
launch attacks on its neighbor...
The agency said Kharrazi and Prince Saud, speaking 
by telephone, condemned the attacks on the United States and expressed "great 
concern over the possibility a human calamity could engulf the world".....
The visits 
to Iran and Syria are being watched especially closely because the United States 
has long accused the countries of sponsoring terrorism." The Gulf News/Sept. 24, 2001.

Taliban dig in against looming US attack

Afghanistan's ruling Taliban have been building bunkers, installing anti-aircraft batteries and 
arming men in key border areas to defend against possible attack by the United States, 

witnesses and officials said on Sunday.
They said workers are reinforcing defences along 
the border with Pakistan from Nangahar province near the Khyber pass to Kandahar province, 
the main stronghold of the movement, which has vowed a jihad (holy war) if it is attacked.
 
Travellers from the region said the Taliban also have Stinger missiles -- the sophisticated 
US-built surface-to-air missiles that Washington originally supplied in the mid-1980s to the 
mujahideen (holy warriors) fighting the Soviet Union.

Ist Shots fired on Afghan Soil

OPENING SALVO
BRITISH SAS troops have fought a gun battle in Afghanistan with Taliban fighters, marking the 
first confrontation in the war against terrorism.
A four-man SAS reconnaissance and intelligence 
team, known as a brick, exchanged automatic gunfire with a group of Taliban fighters when 
they unexpectedly encountered each other in the foothills of Kabul.
The gunfight is believed 
to have taken place on Friday but it is understood the SAS infiltrated Afghanistan five days 
earlier, the first deployment in the increasing military build-up in the region.
The SAS team 
entered Afghanistan from Tajikistan.
The men's immediate task was to set up a communications 
link with their UK headquarters and to make an assessment of conditions on the ground in 
areas known to be dominated by those protecting Osama bin Laden....
Reports also 
emerged that the British intelligence arm MI6 had pinpointed bin Laden's location, 
still in Afghanistan.
UK papers said the spy group traced bin Laden – leader of the 
terrorist organization al-Qaeda – to a desolate region close to the town of Jalalabad on the 
country's north-east border with Pakistan.
Prime Minister Tony Blair's spokesman said:
 "We know he is there, put it that way." When asked if bin Laden's exact whereabouts had 
been identified, he insisted: "We know where he is."....
Of the more than 200 warplanes 
flowing to the
Gulf region, 75 are on the aircraft carrier USS Theodore Roosevelt, which

Unholy trinity in chemical weapons pact
"AS intelligence services try to prove who was behind the New York and Washington attacks,

US closes net round Afghanistan [The coalition gets ready for war]

The United States Army began moving troops to within striking distance of Afghanistan 
as a massive deployment of warplanes, ships, equipment and personnel entered its second day.
 
Army Secretary Mr Thomas White, the US army's top civilian official, said the Army was "ready to 
conduct sustained land combat operations" in the Persian Gulf region.
He said the deployment 
of special operations forces, light infantry and other troops was the first step in a broader military 
campaign that would unfold in coming weeks, adding that American casualties were likely.
 
"This is not a police activity. We have treated [combating terrorism] as a police activity 
in the past," said Mr White, the army's top civilian official. "This is war....
.He said the campaign 
would eventually involve other countries known to harbour or shelter terrorists. Analysts 
speculated these might include Iraq, Sudan and Libya....The Special Power Commando or 
KSK, which Germany considers among NATO's best troops, were due to leave their base in 
south-western Germany "any minute now", according to Die Welt newspaper.
Russia, meanwhile, 
is pouring troops, tanks, and military equipment onto the border with Afghanistan. In addition to 
10,000 border guards under Russian command on the ex-Soviet state of Tajikistan's border 
with Afghanistan,

Defining 'homeland defense'

- Two years ago this week, the U.S. Commission on National Security issued an ominous
warning.
"We should expect conflicts in which adversaries, because of cultural affinities 
different from our own, will resort to forms and levels of violence shocking to our sensitivities,
" the commission said in its report, "New World Coming."
The report was looking ahead 
25 years. Few people imagined it would happen this soon.
It took the Sept. 11 attacks on 
the World Trade Center and Pentagon to make the commission's focus, "homeland defense,"
a national catch phrase. Now, underneath public statements about bipartisan unity, there is
 disagreement about how to interpret it into a meaningful counter terrorism strategy on the 
home front.
On Thursday, President Bush announced he will appoint Pennsylvania Gov. 
Tom Ridge, a Republican, to a new Cabinet-level position overseeing the Office of 
Homeland Security.
Ridge's job, White House officials explained Friday, is to develop 
a comprehensive national strategy to strengthen "homeland preparedness and security." 
That means coordinating existing efforts now scattered among federal, state and local 
agencies.
It would mean taking information about terrorists supplied by the FBI or others, 
piecing it together with other information, and turning it into defensive actions, such as 
increased airport security, or beefed-up protection of everything from computer 
networks to water supplies....
Former Sens. Gary Hart and Warren Rudman, who 
co-chaired the Commission on National Security, said they want to go a step further
than Bush, folding the U.S. Customs Service, Border Patrol, Coast Guard and Federal 
Emergency Management Agency into a new department headed by Ridge....."

Bush: Justice will be done

WASHINGTON -- Declaring his intention to marshal all of America's resources to fight 
terrorism, President Bush on Thursday warned foreign leaders not to stand in the way of 
military or diplomatic efforts to root out those responsible for last week's attack....
He warned 
the Taliban to turn over bin Laden and his followers and shut down all terrorist operations 
or face the wrath of the United States.
While the Taliban leaders have asked bin Laden to 
voluntarily leave, Bush said that was not sufficient. "The Taliban must act and act immediately. 
They will hand over the terrorists, or they will share their fate,"
he said...."

Civilians and a Biothreat

For ‘safety’ reasons, the federal government has decided 
not to bring the general public into the loop about how to 
prepare for a likely biological- or chemical-weapon attack
.

"Orson Welles’ 1938 Halloween radio broadcast of H.G. Wells’ fantasy novel The 
War of the Worlds sent thousands of men, women and children throughout the nation 
into a panic. The cause of the hysteria: Martians had landed in Grover’s Mill, N.J., and 
death and destruction lay in their wake. Although announcements periodically were made 
throughout the program that the broadcast was a fictional drama, many missed the 
disclaimers. People flooded police, newspaper and radio switchboards to find out what 
protective measures could be taken against the Martian invasion. The New York Times, 
for example, received nearly a thousand calls. One caller wondered, “At what time will it 
be the end of the world?” A caller to a police station in New York City demanded to 
know if “the wave of poison gas will reach as far as Queens.” In Harlem, dozens of men 
and women rushed into the West 123rd Street Police Station, having packed their 
belongings, and demanded information about how to evacuate the city.
This well-produced 
radio broadcast of an imaginary Martian invasion caused a national panic, as literally 
thousands of ordinary Americans were ready to flee hearth and home for safety, turning 
to government and the media for guidance. Fast-forward 63 years. While destruction of 
the planet by men from Mars no longer makes the list of doomsday scenarios, new 
“invaders” have muscled their way onto that list, including terrorist attacks using biological 
or chemical weapons. As with Welles’ Halloween broadcast of 1938, today’s perceived 
destroyer of populations is invisible but not imaginary. Without warning, civilians won’t 
have a clue until days or weeks later that an attack even has occurred, let alone whether 
they have been subjected to the deadly agents. And those tasked with coordinating a 
response to such an invasion tell Insight they fear the panicked reaction will be so 
great as to be unmanageable.
Experts agree that the threat of attack by bioterrorists — 
whether state-sponsored or carried out by independent radicals with weapons of mass 
destruction (WMDs) such as biological or chemical agents — no longer is a matter of if, 
but when.
Indeed, “low-tech” attacks already have occurred, and the threat of such 
terrorism is simply a grim reality of the new millennium. In March 1995, for instance, 
lethal nerve gas was released in a Tokyo subway by a Japanese cult, Aum Shinrikyo, 
killing 12 and hospitalizing 5,000...."

U.S. flags, guns sell briskly

By Henry Pierson Curtis and Doris Bloodsworth | Sentinel Staff Writers
Posted September 12, 2001

Gun and flag sales peaked across Central Florida as defiant, fearful residents rushed to arm 
themselves Tuesday and display their patriotism. Many were first-time buyers, some not even 
knowing how to load their weapons. By 4 p.m., Buck's Gun Rack in Daytona Beach had sold 
9,000 bullets -- at least 400 percent above an average day -- and more than 10 rifles and 
shotguns. "It's like a hurricane. You may have four cans of tuna fish at home, and you still 
go out and buy more," said Forrest Buckwald, co-owner of the store. "Today, everybody 
bought." The same sense of urgency spurred sales at M&M Flags and Banners in Longwood. 
"By Friday there won't be no flags left in the country," said owner James Knapton, who 
ordered $20,000 of U.S. flags by late afternoon. "When this stuff happens, they just sell, 
bare out to the walls." Still, ammunition outsold the Stars and Stripes.

Hal Lindsey Says America in not in Bible Prophecy

"Last night I inaugurated my new radio talk show in Los Angeles. When we opened the phones

my country, and I'd love to find references to it in the last days. But it isn't there. And that

on earth, by every conceivable measure.
There are some who try and find America in Scripture...."

Religious leaders respond to attacks, Falwell, Graham, Colson, others urge prayer, 
condemn terror

"Religious leaders across America are responding to yesterday's terrorist attacks in New 
York and Washington....
While Hagee [John Hagee, author of "The Battle for Jerusalem,"] 
hopes to steer enmity away from those sharing the religion and ethnicity of the supposed 
terrorists in absence of the actual perpetrators, Colson warned about overreaction on the 
part of government...."[T]he purpose of terrorism is to destabilize free societies and to 
take away our liberties," he said. "We cannot succumb to this assault on our deepest 
beliefs by restricting the civil liberties that make this nation great."....
Seeing no scriptural 
evidence of the U.S. as major player in the end times, Lindsey predicted in a 
May 2 WorldNetDaily column
and his video, "Where is America in Prophecy," that 
something catastrophic will happen to United States to take the nation from the position
of a world power. In Lindsey's view, "The power must shift to Western Europe."

"I believe radical Islam declared war on the United States Sept. 11, and that this is only 
the beginning.
I also believe that this will focus even more attention on the Arab-Israeli 
conflict and make it the No 1 priority for the world,"
said Lindsey. "As prophecy 
indicates, this is exactly the condition into which the Antichrist steps and solves with 
a pseudo-peace.....

....Gary DeMar, author of "Last Day's Madness" and president of 
American Vision
is one prophecy pundit who differs greatly from preceding end-times 
scenarios. While dissuading believers from seeing the attacks as "Armageddon now!" "
portents of unfolding last-days terror, DeMar does see this assault as a wakeup call 
from God.
"It's interesting how many journalists are talking about God," he told WND. 
"We never hear about God unless something like this happens." "America has 
strayed a long way, and maybe God is calling us to account....."
