Listen to Today's Program
JD: Talk to me about the Cold War foes, the United States and Russia. They have sparked the biggest military spending jump in a decade. Are they getting ready to go to war?
KT: Well I don't think they're getting ready to go to war per say but you are absolutely right. This is a extremely important story that's gotten very little play in the national media. We've talked about it here on this program from time to time. The Russian government under Vladimir Putin over the past 10 years has dramatically increased military spending.
The current estimate is it's about 10% of what we spend in the United States. This is not accurate. That's in actual dollars translated from rubles. They're probably half of what we spend which is a huge increase after the Cold War. What the Putin regime has done is to spend most of that money on new generations of strategic nuclear weaponry. In other words weapons of mass destruction capable of wiping out the United States.
They have spent money also on developing on what's called a super EMP or electrical magnetic pulse bomb which could take out our entire electrical grid. They only need 2 of those weapons exploded in the atmosphere above the United States which they have the capability of doing to take down the entire national electronic grid in the United States. We do not have the capability even now under the Trump administration where awareness has been growing of the EMP threat. We do not have the ability to jump back quickly from an EMP attack. So Russia has been developing weapons that could take us out strategically. This is a recent development. It's something the people have not been paying attention to and I think it's extremely important.
JD: Ken Timmerman at the broadcast table with the details on how Russia's weapons of mass destruction could actually take out the United States.
We report this information because it is setting the stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.
Ken's report should get your attention as to the potential war between the United Sates and Russia. Although its a war that may not happen in the next few days it for sure could happen in the near future. I say that based on my knowledge of Bible prophecy. Ezekiel 38 reveals that Russia will be the leader of a coalition of Islamic nations which will endeavor to destroy the Jewish State of Israel. America is actually the only nation that could stop that war since the United States is not mention in Bible prophecy and Russia is, Ezekiel 38:2 mentioned as Magog. Remove America and that prophetic scenario will unfold.
