Iran is once again showing the world that it does not need to defeat the United States in a conventional war to inflict tremendous damage upon it. According to CENTCOM, IRGC forces on Larak Island were preparing rocket launchers capable of firing naval mines directly into the Strait of Hormuz, replenishing the very minefields American forces had only just finished clearing. That is not ordinary coastal defense, it is calculated economic warfare. Tehran is weaponizing one of the most important maritime chokepoints on Earth, transforming a narrow stretch of water into a pressure valve on global oil supplies, shipping insurance, commercial traffic and inflation. Iran understands perfectly that it can shake markets, frighten tanker operators and drive oil above $90 without sinking an American aircraft carrier or winning a single conventional battle.“There is no peace, saith my God, to the wicked.” Isaiah 57:21 (KJB)On this episode of the Prophecy News Podcast, when the United States destroyed those launchers, Iran did not limit its response to the Strait or strike only at the forces responsible. The IRGC fired ballistic missiles toward bases housing American forces in Jordan and launched drones into UAE airspace, immediately expanding the battlefield into neighboring countries. Jordan says it intercepted eight missiles, while the UAE says it intercepted Iranian drones over its territorial waters. Iran is demonstrating that every Gulf nation hosting American forces can be made to pay a price for Washington's decisions. Tehran is turning the entire region into a field of retaliatory targets while presenting its aggression as “self-defense.”The most disturbing part is that Iran appears determined to establish itself as the gatekeeper of Hormuz. Tehran says vessels must obey Iranian navigation restrictions, has reportedly threatened ships attempting to pass without its authorization, and claims a tanker struck two mines after trying to transit “illegally.” That amounts to an effort to impose Iranian control over an international waterway by force. America may destroy two launchers today and clear several mines tomorrow, but Iran can deploy more rockets, drones, missiles and mines from a long and heavily fortified coastline. The IRGC is betting that it can bleed America's munitions, frighten its Gulf allies, strangle international commerce and force the world to negotiate on Tehran's terms. This is not Iran backing down, it is Iran tightening its grip around the throat of the global economy. Today on the Podcast, nothing is at is seems in the Middle East as we rapidly approach the prophecy tipping point!

America is fighting Iran, Ukraine is setting Russia's war machine on fire, Putin is being pushed higher up the escalation ladder, and the Patriot missiles standing between Europe and Russian ballistic weapons are disappearing faster than America can replace them. That is not merely a weapons shortage. That is a geopolitical chain reaction — and every link in the chain is getting hotter.“For God hath put in their hearts to fulfil his will, and to agree, and give their kingdom unto the beast, until the words of God shall be fulfilled.” Revelation 17:17 (KJB)On this episode of the Prophecy News Podcast, America is fighting Iran and burning through the sophisticated interceptors that were supposed to protect U.S. forces and NATO from other adversaries. At the same moment, Ukraine has carried its war deep inside Russia, repeatedly hammering refineries, fuel facilities, ports, weapons plants and other infrastructure that Moscow depends upon to finance and sustain its campaign. Those strikes are now causing measurable pain: Russian refining capacity has been disrupted, fuel restrictions have expanded, and Moscow has been forced to seek additional supplies and processing arrangements abroad. Meanwhile diplomacy has stalled and Russian rhetoric is becoming increasingly belligerent. AP reports that American Patriot interceptor inventories in Europe have fallen to what one U.S. defense official called “beyond critical,” largely because weapons have been diverted and expended during Trump's war with Iran. These are precisely the interceptors NATO depends upon to destroy the high-speed Russian ballistic missiles that become increasingly important if Moscow climbs the escalation ladder. Washington therefore finds itself caught in a nightmare equation: Iran is forcing America to expend its missile defenses, Ukraine is forcing Russia deeper into a corner, Russia is contemplating greater military escalation, and America's ability to defend Europe against that escalation is simultaneously being depleted. And while Washington debates whether Putin will escalate, Russia is already firing waves of ballistic missiles and drones into Ukraine, Ukraine has just set a monthly record for attacks on Russian refineries, Moscow is threatening Western military targets, and Trump says he isn't worried about Russia attacking NATO — even as America's premier defense against Russian ballistic missiles remains “beyond critical.” Today we find ourselves at the 6 month anniversary of Trump's “6 Week War”, with no end or resolution in sight. Welcome to The Golden Age that never was.

Nearly two thousand years before electricity, computers, smartphones, cryptocurrency or biometric identification existed, the apostle John stood on the Isle of Patmos and saw a coming world system in which every person would receive a mark in their right hand or in their forehead, and without that mark no one would be permitted to buy or sell; its number would be Six hundred threescore and six. 666 staring you right in your face. John saw a human implantable, biometric device that would contol all buying and selling on a global basis. People have it backwards, it's not technology driving to prophectic fulfillment, it's prophecy driving the technology toward the Mark. Just look at what is rising before our very eyes.“But I will shew thee that which is noted in the scripture of truth: and there is none that holdeth with me in these things, but Michael your prince.” Daniel 10:21 (KJB)“And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.” Revelation 13:16-18 (KJB)On this episode of the Prophecy News Podcast, Gates-funded researchers at MIT created a dissolving microneedle patch capable of delivering a vaccine while leaving an invisible, smartphone-readable quantum-dot record beneath human skin. Microsoft then produced patent number WO/2020/060606, a cryptocurrency system using bodily activity—pulse, heat, blood flow and brainwaves—as verified data within a digital-currency network. Emerging tech company CipherX has now brought dissolving microneedle tattoo technology out of the laboratory and into the marketplace, permanently placing pixel-like marks into human skin while simultaneously developing its S.M.A.R.T. vaccine patch that confirms successful vaccination with a tattoo. These are not random inventions wandering in unrelated directions; they are complementary pieces moving relentlessly toward the same destination—the body becoming the identity, the mark becoming the record, the biometric becoming the key, and the key determining access to the marketplace. No single institution has yet unveiled the completed Mark of the Beast because no single institution needs to. The system appears to be assembling itself, one vaccine patch, one digital identifier, one biometric sensor and one cryptocurrency transaction at a time. When the man of sin finally steps onto the world stage, he will not need to invent the machinery of Revelation 13; he will simply inherit it, unite it and demand worship through it. The Bible gave us the finished blueprint two thousand years ago, and now fallen man is manufacturing every component with breathtaking precision and rapidity. We are not waiting for prophecy to catch up with technology, technology is racing with all its might to catch up with King James Bible prophecy.

The headlines coming out of the Iran war today confirm that Donald Trump's promised victory has become a strategic defeat unfolding before the entire world. What began in hubris as Operation Epic Fury has sadly morphed into Economic D-Day as Trump's dreams of an easy victory has turned to dust. After nearly six months of American bombing, Iran is now threatening 46 commercial ships with detention or confiscation, traffic through the Strait of Hormuz has collapsed from more than 130 daily passages to approximately 16, and Tehran is negotiating with Oman over shipping lanes and the collection of transit fees. Trump entered this war promising to obliterate Iran's nuclear program, dismantle its missile forces, reopen Hormuz and bring the Islamic Republic to its knees. Instead, the regime remains standing, its missiles remain operational, its nuclear ambitions remain unresolved and its control over the world's most important energy chokepoint is stronger than it was before the first American bomb fell. Iran did not need to defeat the United States on the battlefield; it only needed to survive long enough to expose the limits of American power. Donald Trump has made this war all about him, and that's exactly how history will remember it. They will say “Trump did this”, and they'll be right.“Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall.” Proverbs 16:18 (KJB)On this episode of the Prophecy News Podcast, Donald Trump has abandoned the language of imminent military victory and replaced it with Scott Bessent's ridiculous promise of an “Economic D-Day,” an admission that the bombs never produced the surrender Washington demanded. Iran's currency is collapsing and its people are suffering terribly, but economic misery is not the decisive American triumph Trump promised. Meanwhile, the Pentagon is diverting so many forces into this expanding Middle East quagmire that a major military exercise with South Korea has reportedly been canceled, weakening American readiness against China and North Korea. The self-proclaimed “president of peace” has spent tens of billions of dollars, wounded hundreds of American service members and killing 18, disrupted the global economy and reduced American military flexibility—only to leave Iran standing defiantly at the gates of Hormuz. Trump may call it maximum pressure, economic warfare or “D-Day,” but the world sees exactly what it is: a desperate attempt to manufacture victory after his war failed to deliver one.

Isaiah's warning is not merely some distant prophetic curiosity — we are watching the pattern unfold right now. The prophet Isaiah speaks of “scornful men, that rule this people which is in Jerusalem”, and today Israel is being led by men whose rhetoric, policies and public displays are helping turn the nations against the Jewish state. Ben-Gvir standing before newly constructed gallows, boasting about executions and viewing booths, is not simply another controversial political moment; it is exactly the kind of spectacle that hardens global opinion, isolates Jerusalem and gives Israel's enemies fresh ammunition. The world is already increasingly hostile toward Israel, and instead of slowing that momentum, some of Israel's own rulers are actively pouring gasoline on the fire. The “scornful men” are ruling Jerusalem, and they are helping create the very conditions the prophets said would exist in the last days.“Wherefore hear the word of the LORD, ye scornful men, that rule this people which is in Jerusalem.” Isaiah 28:14 (KJB)“And in that day will I make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all people: all that burden themselves with it shall be cut in pieces, though all the people of the earth be gathered together against it.” Zechariah 12:3 (KJB)On this episode of the Prophecy News Podcast, Zechariah said Jerusalem would become “a burdensome stone for all people” and that eventually “all the people of the earth” would be gathered against it (Zechariah 12:3 KJB). That prophecy does not require Israel to be innocent of every wrong action; in fact, Scripture repeatedly shows Israel in rebellion and under corrupt leadership immediately before divine intervention. What we are witnessing now is the process taking shape: outrage, condemnation, diplomatic isolation, growing hostility, and leaders in Jerusalem whose own actions are accelerating the collapse of international sympathy. Ben-Gvir's gallows are not happening in a vacuum — they are part of a larger prophetic trajectory in which Jerusalem becomes increasingly unbearable to the nations. The road to Zechariah 12 is being built in real time, and astonishingly, some of the men ruling Jerusalem are helping pave it themselves. Today we do a Bible Study ripped from the headlines to show you just how close the Jews and Israel are to the time of Jacob's trouble!

This month, on Laura Flanders & Friends, we turn to the state of journalism—at a moment of deep disruption, consolidation, and consequence.  But journalists aren't simply standing by—they're pushing back, reimagining their work, and, in many cases, taking matters into their own hands. This show is made possible by you! To become a sustaining member go to LauraFlanders.org/donate Description:  Journalism is at an inflection point. Under a hail of lawsuits, firings, new hires, and mercenary mergers, the business of media is in shambles even as the need for reliable, truthful information to reach voters is greater than ever. Where does that leave journalists? In this episode, Laura and her guests discuss the money media's dangerous denials and obfuscations, the problem with bothsidesism in a time of fascism, and the coverage of Renee Good's killing in Minneapolis. Dean Obeidallah is a lawyer, writer, award-winning comedian and host of SiriusXM radio's national daily program “The Dean Obeidallah Show”. Joy Reid, formerly host of the award-winning ReidOut on MSNBC, is a best-selling author, and host of the Joy Reid Show on YouTube. The decline of legacy media isn't all bad news — especially for those, like Palestinians and others, who were always shut out of it — and the rise of independent platforms, savvy media consumers and new mechanisms for collaboration just might usher in a new age of great journalism, just when we need it. Join Dean, Joy and Laura for this rich conversation on resistance, reporting, and survival.  [This conversation was recorded on January 14, 2026] “What I would like corporate media to understand, their job is not to make money for shareholders and executives to get bonuses, but serve the people, make them smarter, even if it means losing access. I know that's a lot to ask, but that's what I would like because an educated, informed electorate is the key to saving this republic.” - Dean Obeidallah “It is a crime against journalism for the editorial director of a news network to say our job is not to deliver the news, but to go viral. That's crazy.”- Joy Reid Guests: •  Dean Obeidallah: Host of SiriusXM radio's The Dean Obeidallah Show • Joy Reid: Host of The Joy Reid Show Watch the episode released on YouTube; PBS World Channel 11:30am ET Sundays and on over 300 public stations across the country (check your listings, or search here via zipcode).
