The End of MWM

Greetings all,

Letting everyone know that after somewhere around 28 years, when our annual hosting expires on 08/24/2025, Millennium Weekend Ministries we will not be renewing. Lack of interest for the past many years makes it clear to Esther and me that it does not make any sense to continue to keep the site running.

Many thanks to the handful of folks that have stuck it out with us. Perhaps very soon we shall all meet when we hear the glorious voice of our Savior calling us home to the Father's house. Certainly any who have placed their faith in Jesus Christ alone for their salvation, repenting with a "broken and contrite heart" (Ps 34:18 and 51:17) will find mercy and will indeed be caught up together to meet our Savior in the air.

What a glorious day that will be.

In Christ alone,
Andy

        Israel Stuck Between a Trump Rock and Putin Hard Place Over Syria Cease-fire


        The dispute between Israel and the U.S. administration regarding the agreement establishing a security zone in southern Syria is based on two arguments: that the United States and Russia did not take Israel security interests into account, and that the agreement firmly establishes Iran in Syria. As a result, according to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, the agreement is bad and should be ditched.

          The U.S. decision, said one of the officials, is part of an effort by the administration to improve relations with Russia, which along with Iranian-supported groups has largely succeeded in preserving Assad government in the six-year-civil war.

              While Russia has already sent its own troops in to oversee affairs, a fully functioning monitoring center has yet to be opened as planned in Amman, Jordan. And according to Ayman Abdel Nour, founder of the pro-opposition humanitarian aid organization Syrian Christians for Peace, a lot of what has happened on the ground is smoke and mirrors.

              On the first day, there were still Hezbollah flags there. Then somebody told them simply just to change to Syrian flags rather than withdrawing to trick everybody, he said, adding that there has been a small amount of bombing in the targeted area.

                Scaramucci

                His political connections run the gamut. He supported Gov. Scott Walker, R-Wis., and former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush before throwing his support to Mr. Trump during the 2016 Republican presidential primary race.

                He also financially supported Democrats, including Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, and New York Sen. Chuck Schumer.

                CFR member
                Speaker at Davos

                He is a member of the World Economic Forum and speaks at the annual meeting in Davos, Switzerland
                http://www.cnbc.com/id/46164311

                Most recent he represented Pres Trump at Davos

                Scaramucci: Trump Represents a Hope for Globalism

                https://www.bloomberg.com/news/video...-for-globalism

                It is weird and relevant to the news today as this was early January, at the beginning of the video, the comments about the Russians.

                PS He calls it Capitalism Globalization in an article.

                His political connections run the gamut. He supported Gov. Scott Walker, R-Wis., and former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush before throwing his support to Mr. Trump during the 2016 Republican presidential primary race.

                He also financially supported Democrats, including Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, and New York Sen. Chuck Schumer.
                The reason the IMF, World Bank etc. didn't have a problem with Trump's ideas and in fact actually promoted many of them even prior to his election. Articles were posted in here at the time.

                and again I repeat see post 21

                    another side note

                    Speaking to reporters on Air Force One returning from the G20 meeting in the German city of Hamburg, Gary Cohn, director of the White House National Economic Council, said Trump and Macron enjoyed a great relationship.

                    You know, Macron and the president have somewhat different views on how to achieve the end goal, but I think the end goal is the same, Cohn said.

                    Odd personality, especially for Europe, as he is promoting many of the same policies as Pres. Trump. Corporate focused policies. What was once thought to be the odd couple turned out to be very very similar.
