Revelation Six - When The Four Horsemen Ride
 |
The October 7th massacre by Hamas created a domino effect that is still being felt around the world. It left Hezbollah destroyed, an Islamist government in Damascus, and Iran in crisis. Turkey sees an opportunity to bring back the glory days of the Ottoman Empire, and Russia teeters on the brink of collapse.
All of these 'dominoes' already had other pressures that they were dealing with, but their fall seemed to need Israel's response to the largest massacre since the Holocaust. And it has allowed Europe and America to see the deep fractures that threaten our civilization.
What comes next will be... interesting.

When Will The Madness Stop?
Let's start with a lie.
Starting With Lies
This one:
 |
This graph is accurate until December 2025. The rest of that graph is a complete lie. All they did was plug in fake data that produced a graph that is impossible. And I don't know whether this was sheer incompetence or baldfaced lying.
Here's the graph that I showed you in April:
 |
Do you notice a difference?
Yeah. This one is telling the truth. It's still a little optimistic, but it spells disaster all the same.
As a reminder, this is what the world looks like:
 |
Even this graph tries to put a positive spin on catastrophic news. But notice where these last two graphs come from - analysts who know the industry and are paid to tell the truth.
Banks? Banks are paid to lie. And yes, I know this personally because I was on the inside for a couple of years. This is why people with real money pay handsomely for expert advice from people like RystadEnergy, who can't afford to lie.
Oh, and what was one of the unspoken reasons why Russia invaded Ukraine?
Ukraine has oil.
So yeah, politicians lie too. In fact, if they didn't, we wouldn't vote for them. Think about that for a moment.
The Druze
One of the people our politicians selected to be ambassador to Turkey is this guy, Tom Barrack:
 |
He is a devil with deep ties to Qatar and Turkey, and he has consistently lied about what is happening to the Druze and other minorities in southern Syria. And his lies are responsible for the US blocking Israel from helping the Druze.
However, Israel has found ways around that block and has been quietly doing their best to keep the Druze alive. But Donald Trump needs to understand that his friend, Tom Barrack is an enemy. Just after Tom Barrack left Damascus for talks in Lebanon, the Syrian government announced that they would not be buying natural gas from Azerbaijan, but from Qatar - and everyone knows that Tom was responsible for that.
I wonder how much the Qataris paid him for that deal.
There's a bad smell about Barrack, and the US government needs to investigate where it's coming from. Notice how Barrack looks in this article about the plight of the Druze in Syria:
Israel’s Druze leader meets U.S. envoy to discuss Sweida massacre and aid
https://www.i24news.tv/en/news/international/americas/artc-israel-s-druze-leader-meets-u-s-envoy-to-discuss-sweida-massacre-and-aid
He looks like he got caught with his hand in the cookie jar. And the leader of the Israeli Druze knows that Barrack is a devil, and he isn't going to let Barrack get away with his lies. And I think that this devil knows it.
 |
And yes, that deadpan look on the face of the guy on the right is normal for him. He literally doesn't give anything away, and his interviews are intelligent and very well worded. Sheikh Muwaffaq Tarif is very smart and knows what he's doing. He was the one to convince Netanyahu to defend the Druze of Syria.
Now, think for a moment what an alliance between Israel, the Druze and the Kurds will mean for the Middle East. It will block Turkey's attempt to push into the soft underbelly of Jordan, Iraq and Saudi Arabia. And it will allow the al-Qaeda regime in Damascus to self-destruct.
And Iran?
Iran is toast. We talked about Iran's water troubles last time, and they haven't gotten better. If anything, the situation has gotten worse, with explosions at key facilities and demonstrations in the streets. But let's get back to the Druze in Syria, in Suwayda (aka, Sweida).
The Druze are still suffering and dying, cut off from all medical aid, electricity, food and water. The dogs of Damascus have laid siege to Suwayda, to try and kill all of the Druze. And they need help, now.
Israel has special forces units in Syria, calling in air strikes when Syrian forces rear their heads. Israel has also been able to get in some aid to the Druze, but it's not enough. Our hope is that Israel can do enough to keep the Druze alive, while (I hope) they make plans to ram through a protected corridor that the Bedouins of Daraa cannot break.
These kinds of military operations take time to prepare. And we won't know if they are preparing one, until it launches. Israel was caught flat-footed by the massacres of the Druze in July, but they responded quickly enough that air strikes took out Syrian tanks and vehicles, scaring the Syrians away. But the Druze paid a heavy price with thousands dead, hundreds kidnapped and a horrifying medical crisis - with people dying every day from preventable conditions. Israel has airlifted many of the worst cases back to Israel, but caring for a four hundred thousand person community by helicopter isn't a good solution.
Here is a man who was once a Syrian patriot, until the Dogs of Damascus came to his village:
A former Syrian citizen and eyewitness in Sweida survived a massacre when General Security stormed in, asking, “Are you all Druze?”
He once chanted with others, “One, one, one; the Syrian people are one.” Now he no longer believes it. Islamists came from all across Syria to kill… pic.twitter.com/JFKegX5IWJ— Mira ⛥ (@MiraMedusa) August 23, 2025
Unfortunately, those words aren't enough. You need to see what the demonic forces of Damascus did in July. And what they continue to do.
WARNING: Do not watch this if you have a weak stomach or children in the room.
As a result of this massacre and the weak response from the international community, the Druze have decided to combine their militias into one unified military unit called the National Guard and have placed themselves under the direction of Sheikh Hikmat al-Hijri.
Their symbol is this:
 |
That is going to make life for the Jihadis even harder. A unified and well coordinated military with air support from Israel is going to turn Syria, south of Damascus, into a no-go zone for Islamist militias.
And if Israel can get an Israeli Druze battalion to guard the corridor between Israel and Suwayda, then the Middle East will get really interesting, really fast.
Here's a more professional view from my favorite Israeli Druze ex-special forces officer, on a show that many of you might already watch:
Forgotten by the World: The Druze Are Being Erased in Syria
This video confirmed for me that Mansur Ashkar is a real brother in Christ. And no, I'm not going to tell you why, other than we have friends in common who are also great Christians. And I like Amir Tsarfati, even though we disagree on when the Rapture happens.
Oh, and please share that video. The word needs to get out about what is happening to the Druze in Syria.
Rumbles From Moscow
Did you know that when Putin went to meet Trump, his planes had to pay for refueling in cash?
As in $250 thousand dollars in cash, to refuel the three planes that he brought with him. And then, Trump threw him out before the completion of the diplomatic visit. That's right, no luncheon. No post-summit declaration. Trump wasn't happy, and has gotten progressively less happy with Putin.
But it gets worse.
There’s BIG Chatter of a Coup in Moscow
Apparently, Putin has gotten more than a little paranoid about those close to him. And some of them have been tossed out of windows. There's actually a word for that in English - defenestration. It's the act of tossing someone out of a window, and it has a rich, centuries long tradition. However, Putin's usage means that things aren't going well in Moscow. And someone might decide to defenestrate Putin.
An After Action Report About A Hamas Ambush
Then something a bit more interesting. Fifteen Hamas fighters decided to stalk, and then ambush a fortified outpost of the IDF Kfir brigade in Gaza. Ten Hamas fighters died and three Israeli soldiers were injured. The initial fighting was only about ten minutes long, and that tells you how important good training is.
15 Hamas Fighters ambushed IDF Soldiers — Who Survived?
Again, it's from my favorite Israeli Druze ex-special forces officer and brother in Christ.
Okay, it's after 4 a.m. here on the Dark Side of the planet, so way past my bedtime. Whatever I left out will be in the next post. But tell me this, if you can:
