UN sanctioned a no fly zone over Libya, how about saving the Libyan people from an insane leader?
edit- just clicked a link from twitter not realising what it was...ended up being a video from a morgue with dismembered bodies :( had to stop it half way through |
I've been deliberately avoiding vids etc because of this: ing atrocious to see :(
Its interesting from a censorship angle though-- the US hasn't had many problems with anti-war movements since they censored media relays of carnage-- |

"For the day is near, even the day of the LORD is near, a cloudy day; it shall be the time of the heathen.And the sword shall come upon Egypt, and great pain shall be in Ethiopia, when the slain shall fall in Egypt, and they shall take away her multitude, and her foundations shall be broken down. Ethiopia, and Libya, and Lydia, and all the mingled people, and Chub, and the men of the land that is in league, shall fall with them by the sword. (Ezekiel 30:3-5)
unfortunately i don't think it's going to get any better from here... |

And absolutely nothing remarkable happened in Ethiopia ;)
I was wondering how long it would take until someone imagined this revolution is some sort of ominous event telling us that the end is nigh. Thanks, 6th! |

Bunch of americans were claiming that the earthquake in christchurch was the result of its gay-friendly status... said the last earthquake was a warning, and this one was because they didn't heed said warning... :wtf: :stongue: :sadgreen: |

Normally I would also be making fun of all these doomsayers and Revelation echoing fanatics. But with all the crazy that's been going on in the world lately, I'm starting to think that there may be some truth in this. Although I seriously doubt the world will end, but I think for the rest of this decade, this is going to be one turbulent ride. |

Is it really that much of a gay friendly city? I just looked it up on the internet and it's got one gay bar for 150 thousand inhabitants! Even Brasilia, which is far from being the gay-friendlist city on Earth, has more gay bars :p |

i think many people who previously might have mocked end-times prophecy are seriously reconsidering.
it'd be wise to do. what do you have to lose?
"Condemnation without investigation is the highest form of ignorance." -Albert Einstein
"There will be signs in the sun, moon and stars. On the earth, nations will be in anguish and perplexity at the roaring and tossing of the sea. Men will faint from terror, apprehensive of what is coming on the world, for the heavenly bodies will be shaken. At that time they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and great glory." -Jesus in the book of Luke
the bible refers to "sea" not as a body of water, but rather it's consistently used throughout the scriptures as symbolic of a large amount of people.
so, apparently, one of the signs that time is truly short, is that there will be uprisings, attempted reformations, and just a general upheaval and unrest of large amounts of people. |

I investigated: Nothing major is going on in Ethiopia. All other claims about the end of days have been nothing but delusional. Therefore, it's safe to say that should anything happen, it's not related to the current events in the Middle East/North Africa.

Wow, uprisings and attempted reformations are a sign that the apocalypse is near!? Blimey, it must be long overdue! |

all it is is people uprising about their own gov't. and it's not to get a new gov't so they can take over the world. hardly a sign of "end of days" lol.
besides present day etheopia/libya are much differnt geographically wise than 2000+ years ago. where it may have been years ago is not where the country's boundary's are now. for all you know libya could have been canada :o:eek: |
