Ray Mabus' Navy faces uncertain future, global challenge from China

It seems Navy Secretary/Possible Third Antichrist Ray Mabus could be presiding over the Navy at a great turning point:


Mabus said much of what happens next will depend on findings from the Quadrennial Defense Review due next February. The review outlines the military's mission and needs. "If we want to keep a global presence we're going to have to make sure that we have enough of the equipment, of the ships to be where we need to be," he said.

. . .

"I have serious concerns about the Navy's ability to cost effectively build and sustain a modern fleet," said Rep. John Fleming, R-La. "This is a formidable challenge, especially at a time when China is advancing its ability to project naval power globally."

Secretary Mabus and the Littoral Combat Ship program

As near as I can tell, Navy Secretary Ray Mabus (who shares the name predicted by Nostradamus to be the "third antichrist") participated in his first Senate testimony the other day since taking his office. It involved a Pentagon program called the littoral combat ship (LCS).

From the scant coverage of the hearing, it sounds like Mabus defended the program (to some extent) from accusations of cost overruns.

Wikipedia has a page about the LCS, and there is a more detailed and technical page on the program at this site.

Wikipedia says:

. . .relatively small surface vessels intended for operations in the littoral zone (close to shore). Two ship classes are the first examples of the LCS in the U.S. Navy: the Freedom-class and the Independence-class. LCS designs are slightly smaller than the Navy's guided missile frigates, and have been compared to the corvette of international usage. However, the LCS designs add the capabilities of a small assault transport with a flight deck and hangar large enough to base two SH-60 Seahawk helicopters, the capability to recover and launch small boats from a stern ramp, and enough cargo volume and payload to deliver a small assault force with armored vehicles to a roll-on/roll-off port facility. The standard armament for the LCS are Mk 110 57 mm guns, while modules containing Non-Line-of-Sight Launch Systems or Mark 54 MAKO Lightweight Torpedoes . . . are available. It will also be able to launch autonomous air, surface, and underwater vehicles . . . Although the LCS designs offer less air defense and surface-to-surface capabilities than comparable destroyers, the LCS concept emphasizes speed, flexible mission module space and a shallow draft.


It sounds like a good ship to go pirate-hunting in! On the other hand, it could be part of an overall Pentagon mindset to fund weapons programs that can be used in smaller scale or urban areas - in this case the ship could be used to seal off a port city. Many people say this mindset will serve us well as the US confronts smaller scale conflicts in urbanized areas, while critics (like me) wonder if the US military will use these systems in urban areas like Houston, Miami, San Diego, etc. to institute a military police state, whether driven by the antichrist or just a domestic totalitarian.

Obama's pro-Islam speech

This is the text of the speech where Obama offers a lukewarm mush of platitudes designed to make the world think he is reaching out to America's enemies in the Muslim world. And perhaps he is.

I think Obama would firebomb Tehran and use bunker buster nukes on Iran the moment his international money master overlords order him to - all pretty speeches aside.

I think Obama will continue to prop up or tear down Israel again at the whim of the international financiers who clearly control his administration.

What everyone must remember is that this speech was primarily given for the consumption of an American audience. This is the group Obama addresses when he gives a speech in English in Europe primarily to a room full of American and Western media.

And there is a fascinating group of lines near the end of the speech:

The holy Quran tells us: "Mankind, we have created you male and a female. And we have made you into nations and tribes so that you may know one another."

The Talmud tells us: "The whole of the Torah is for the purpose of promoting peace."

The holy Bible tells us: "Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God."


These types of efforts to me are clearly an attempt, whether it was Obama or anyone else who employs the rhetorical tactic, to glom all the great monotheistic religions together into one pile. It is worth noting - this type of "universalization" of religion is a popularly assumed tactic of the one who will be antichrist.

And since the speech was made for domestic consumption - it may signify an effort by Obama to attempt to unite all the monotheistic faiths existing now in America into some sort of new cult.

It's also disturbing to note that the major speech Obama gave about Christianity was so blatantly anti-Christian.

Again note - I am not saying Obama is definitely the antichrist. I am saying he engages in very public behaviors that should be of concern to all believing Christians.

Ray Mabus - pawn of the Antichrist? Or just a bad businessman?

Here's some news about Ray Mabus, Obama's Navy Secretary, former Mississippi Governor and possible subject of a Nostradamus endtime/apocalypse prediction about the "third Antichrist:"

Mabus led Foamex International Inc. out of its first Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceeding as the company’s president and chief executive.

Mabus . . . presided over Foamex’s exit from February 2007 exit from bankruptcy protection. Mabus was appointed interim president and chief executive of the company in June 2006, well into its Chapter 11 case. He left the company in April 2007 . . .

Of course, we know the ending to this story: Foamex crashed back into bankruptcy this February, burdened by its $379.7 million debt load and a restructuring plan from the first go-round that was “overly optimistic” in its goal to pay all creditors in full. The bankruptcy court just this week approved the sale of Foamex’s assets to affiliates of investment firms MatlinPatterson and Black Diamond Capital Management.

Mabus, however, can’t close the book on his time at Foamex just yet. On June 9, the U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Wilmington, Del., is slated to consider another former CEO’s request to continue with a lawsuit against Mabus and another former company official . . . accusing Mabus and then-Chief Restructuring Officer Gregory J. Christian of giving him the boot so they could take on his duties and his $718,000 annual salary.


So let's break this down - Mabus has self-promoted himself as some sort of great business man, but the Foamex bankruptcy "recovery" was a sham. In addition, Mabus is accused of the same sort of self serving and short term financial advantage shenanigans that brought us the Housing Bubble, the collapse of the America auto industry and very possibly, a new Depression.

How do these revelations against Mabus support the idea he is "the third Antichrist?" Short answer - they don't.

If Mabus was really this big threat to the world and an architect of Apocalypse, then I think he could have successfully brought Foamex out of bankruptcy. He would have used it as an agent of Satanism. If Ray Mabus was all that - Foamex would be the company that patented the technology to stamp the Mark of the Beast on everyone's foreheads.

Now I suppose you could make some sort of argument that Mabus or Obama is the Antichrist and use this Foamex thing and this petty lawsuit (the second one Mabus has been involved in, the first involved his ex-wife) as evidence of demonic intent - but I don't see it.

I tend to think these days that Obama is merely a mediocre president and Ray Mabus is just another unqualified political insider who received his post based on patronage, not merit.

But . . . time will tell. It's a long way to 2012 - - and beyond.

Obama in hour of crisis

The obvious implication from headlines on this grim Memorial Day is that some of the world's most unstable dictators are acting in concert to advance their dark designs and destabilize world harmony.

We wake this morning and find that North Korea has tested another nuclear device, and that Iranian warships have been dispatched to the strategically sensitive Gulf of Aden.

What is Obama's reaction?


US President Barack Obama said the international community must act after North Korea's "reckless" nuclear and missile tests on Monday.

"The United States and the international community must take action in response," he said ahead of a Memorial Day ceremony to honor war dead.

. . .

United Nations Security Council members are expected to meet in an emergency session later Monday as countries ponder how to respond.


It is clear that Obama will defer to the "international community" - many of whom number totalitarians, allies of Iran and North Korea and communists, to determine America's response to these grave threats.

Why should an American president ask the rest of the world what is best for America? What does this mean? How does it parallel with Biblical prophecy about the Antichrist?

I will explore these issues in upcoming posts.

BONUS: Check out the Wikipedia article on Juche, the horrific, anti-human ideology that motivates and inspires the soulless and evil North Korean regime. This is the ideology that our witless and naive President Obama thinks that the "international community" can oppose.

BONUS BONUS: Check out this article about North Koreans oppression of believing Christians. I guess these martyrs won't be getting any help from the Obama regime! With their hatred of Christians, North Korea is obviously Obama's kind of people!

!!! MABUS CONFIRMED AS NAVY SECRETARY !!! MABUS SWORN IN AS NAVY SECRETARY !!!

Those of us who fear that President Obama could be the Antichrist are troubled to learn that Ray Mabus has been sworn in as Navy Secretary. Nostradamus predicted that a person named "Mabus" would be the "third Antichrist."

This blog tracks this issue and keeps an open mind about these matters. While there is no hard evidence of demonic intent from Ray Mabus, a prudent believing Christian keeps an open mind and monitors the activities of individuals like Obama, who uncannily rose from nothing to become the most powerful man in the world, and Ray Mabus, a longtime supporter of Obama who just so happens to share the name of in Nostradamus' endtime predictions about the "third Antichrist."

I do not know if Obama or Mabus are Antichrist figures - but I will continue to monitor the activities of both men closely!

From the Navy Times:

A Navy announcement gave no details about Mabus’ swearing-in, although it is common for service secretaries to hold a small ceremony with family to formally take over, then have a larger public event to mark the beginning of their tenure. It wasn’t clear yet whether that would be the case with Mabus.

REPORT: Obama skips National Day of Prayer

The Washington Times reports that Obama is "distancing himself" from observations of the National Prayer Day on May 7:

President Obama is distancing himself from the National Day of Prayer by nixing a formal early morning service and not attending a large Catholic prayer breakfast the next morning.

All Mr. Obama will do for the National Day of Prayer, which is Thursday, is sign a proclamation honoring the day, which originated in 1952 when Congress set aside the first Thursday in May for the observance.


There's different ways to take this. On the one hand, Obama obviously has no use for religion/spirituality other than as a political tool, which is cynical and shallow, and might suggest to some people that Obama is the antichrist.

On the other hand, one might also expect the antichrist to embrace religion and spirituality, and make a great show of public worship. In this way the antichrist could gather believing Christians to his/her cause and then begin to subtly erode/replace their beliefs with belief in the Antichrist's path. (Under this mindset, there were definitely things that George W. Bush did that made me worry he might be the antichrist too.)

In the end, the safest thing that can be said about Obama is this - he obviously has no use for Christ other than on the campaign trail.
