As a former chief of Secret Intelligence, with my colleague Lord Guthrie, who served as chief of the Defence Staff shortly before I was in charge of MI6, we are taking the unprecedented step of writing to advise and to warn you that this agreement, if not defeated, will threaten the national security of the country. Please ensure that your MP does not vote for this bad agreement.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"element element-paragraph\">Citing a letter Sir Richard and Maj Gen Julian Thompson, a Falklands war veteran, wrote to May on November 29, the pair claim the agreement &#8220;threatens to change our national security policy by binding us into new sets of EU-controlled relationships&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p class=\"element element-paragraph\">They add: &#8220;Buried in the agreement is the offer of a &#8216;new, deep and special relationship&#8217; with the EU in defence, security and intelligence, which cuts across the three fundamentals of our national security policy: membership of Nato, our close bilateral defence and intelligence relationship with the US and the Five Eyes intelligence alliance.<\/p>\n<p class=\"element element-paragraph\">&#8220;The first duty of the state, above trade, is the security of its citizens.<\/p>\n<p class=\"element element-paragraph\">&#8220;The agreement abrogates this fundamental contract and would place control of aspects of our national security in foreign hands. Please ensure that your MP votes against this bad agreement and supports a sovereign Brexit on WTO rules, without payment of ransom.&#8221; <a

And some UK Leaders are now concerned about what they will have to share with the EU.<\/p>\n<p>The ramifications of this are staggering. Appeasement does not have a great track record in preventing wars as those who followed Nevil Chamberlain will remember. But appeasement is part of what the USA appears to be trying to do.<\/p>\n<p>The statements from US Secretary of State Kerry, as well as the Reuters\u2019 report, provide further support of my assessment that the USA will help Europe by giving it strategic advantages against the USA and UK when someone there decides war against them needs to happen (Isaiah 10:5-11). This will not bode well for the USA in the long run\u2013this sharing of intelligence will help the coming European Beast power takeover the land that had the strongest military\/fortresses in the world (cf. Daniel 11:39). These &#8216;intelligence&#8217; matters are that important.<\/p>\n<p>Yet few Americans consider that any real threat will come from Germany and Europe.

So when Galileo was first proposed, American leaders opposed it as they felt it could be used militarily against the USA.<\/p>\n<p>Notice also a letter from the then <a>U.S. Deputy Secretary of Defense Paul Wolfowitz in which he was part of a campaign against Europe developing Galileo:<\/a><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/www.cogwriter.com\/Galileo_Letter.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"450\" height=\"689\" \/><\/p>\n<p>But this opposition was reversed by the Obama Administration.<\/p>\n<p>This, as I reported at the time (see <a title=\"Permanent Link to USA GPS and EU Galileo linking was expected\" href=\"http:\/\/www.cogwriter.com\/news\/prophecy\/usa-gps-and-eu-galileo-linking-was-expected\/\" rel=\"bookmark\">USA GPS and EU Galileo linking was expected<\/a>), was dangerous, and remains so. But I expected it, and so warned about it in a book I wrote in 2009. Notice that page 85 of that book <em><strong>2012 and the Rise of the Secret Sect<\/strong><\/em> states the following:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>In 2013, the Europeans are planning on having their own global positioning system (GPS), called Galileo, available for military applications. This will allow the Europeans to track the world and attack others without relying on the U.S.A.\u2019s GPS. This will be the first time in the 21<sup>st<\/sup> century that Europeans will be able to have that type of independent military capability.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, according to a 2009 report from the U.S. government, the U.S. Air Force may have to start relying on the European Galileo system (at least to a degree) beginning in 2013, as the U.S. GPS capabilities are expected to deteriorate by then (other problems are also appearing in the newer U.S. satellites). Because the Europeans will be able to control Galileo, they will also likely be capable of derailing certain sophisticated U.S. military applications. This will give the Europeans a unique defensive (as well as offensive) capability that no others on the planet will have.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>When I wrote that in May of 2009, the U.S. Air Force denied that there was such a problem. Yet, in late July 2010, the USA did announce it would rely on Galileo for part of its military defense (see <a title=\"Permanent Link to USA GPS and EU Galileo linking was expected\" href=\"http:\/\/www.cogwriter.com\/news\/prophecy\/usa-gps-and-eu-galileo-linking-was-expected\/\" rel=\"bookmark\">USA GPS and EU Galileo linking was expected<\/a>). Galileo was partially operational in 2013 and is getting more operational as it moves forward.<\/p>\n<p>A 2017 report showed problems related to the USA and Galileo:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>November 16, 2017<\/p>\n<p>Though lawmakers have made clear their interest in having U.S. military receivers incorporate European navigation signals, an agreement to use the encrypted Galileo signal remains elusive and the normal military requirements process could substantially delay implementation. <a href=\"http:\/\/insidegnss.com\/delay-continues-for-effort-to-add-galileo-signal-to-u-s-military-receivers\/\">http:\/\/insidegnss.com\/delay-continues-for-effort-to-add-galileo-signal-to-u-s-military-receivers\/<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>It will only be a few years before the USA will not have the lead in this type of technology. And while some believe that the USA will overcome this, the reality is that the Europeans may decide to take advantage of their lead once they have it.<\/p>\n<p>The Galileo and PESCO projects are absolute proof that Europe wants to function independently of the USA and UK and wants to be ahead of it technologically. Steps for this continue to take place.<\/p>\n<p>The two major world leaders, who were not in the UK, that backed the Brexit vote were the USA&#8217;s Donald Trump (then a candidate for the President of the United States) and Marine Le Pen (currently a political figure in France).<\/p>\n<p>The time of Jacob\u2019s trouble (Jeremiah 30:7), also known as the Great Tribulation, is coming.
