Is Trump Planning To Withdraw US From NATO<\/h2>\n

According to a Rolling Stone magazine article, Trump is planning to withdraw the US from NATO once he wins the 2024 election, but he might not follow through on that desire.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

If he wins the 2024 election, former US President Donald Trump has talked of leaving NATO or drastically reducing the US\u2019s commitment to the organization, according to a Rolling Stone magazine article published on Monday. Rolling Stone said that Trump had stated that he would be willing to leave NATO entirely or stay if its European members increased their defense spending and removed Article 5 of the North Atlantic Treaty, which treats an attack on one member state as an attack on all 31. The publication cited two sources who allegedly heard Trump make the remarks. In mid-2018, Trump angrily told his advisers, \u201cStarting World War III over some of the bloc\u2019s smaller members makes no sense,\u201d claiming that most Americans were unaware of some of these nations. … rump has issued repeated warnings about the possibility that \u201cWorld War III\u201d would break out in Europe. Should Trump win, he has pledged to stop providing military support to Ukraine and compel Vladimir Zelensky, the country\u2019s president, to engage in peace negotiations with Russia. …\u201cHe still wants out,\u201d<\/em> one Trump adviser told Rolling Stone. The aide acknowledged that Trump might not actually follow through on this desire, but \u201cwants a policy team around him nowadays that is much, much tougher on NATO than anything he\u2019s done in the past.\u201d<\/em> 10\/27\/23 https:\/\/greatgameindia.com\/trump-withdraw-us-nato\/<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Donald Trump has long objected to the relative lack of European military spending in the past and threatened to have the USA pull out of NATO , so it is no surprise he may make withdrawal threats in the future.<\/p>\n

Yet, such talk not only upsets the Europeans, it has gotten them to take action.<\/p>\n

Since Donald Trump’s election in 2016, many leaders in Europe publicly stated that Europe must defend itself. And Europe has taken steps.<\/p>\n

Within a year of his election the EU formed PESCO {which can be considered as} the EU\u2019s alternative to NATO.<\/a><\/p>\n

Partially because of Donald Trump, various ones in Europe have taken some steps and agreed to take more responsibility for defense (e.g.\u00a0PESCO: EU\u2019s alternative to NATO?<\/a> and Europe moving towards its own army \u2018Europe may soon produce its own Trumps\u2019<\/a> and With PESCO, EU entering a \u2018New Era\u2019: An era that will NOT end well for the USA, Canada, or the UK<\/a>).<\/p>\n

Many see this as reasonable and logical–particularly in the light of real and alleged comments from US President Donald Trump.<\/p>\n

Furthermore, since Russia’s “special military operation’ into Ukraine, the Europeans have pledged to greatly increase their military spending. Related to that, the Continuing<\/em>\u00a0Church of God<\/a> (CCOG) put together the following video on our Bible News Prophecy<\/a> YouTube channel:<\/p>\n

Is the European Beast Growing Horns?<\/a><\/h3>\n

Does the conflict between Russia and Ukraine have prophetic ramifications? What about Ezekiel 38? Are we seeing a \u2018historic shift\u2019 in Europe to move towards more unity? What about non-EU nations like Sweden and Switzerland? Is Germany\u2019s announcement to double its military spending to 100 million euros a big deal? Does the Bible tell of changes coming to Europe for it to rise up as a Babylonian unity successful military power? What about the United States of America and its British-descended allies? Could USA sanctions against Russia, including SWIFT restrictions, decrease international demand for USA dollars and cause inflation? Dr. Thiel addresses these issues and more in this video.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Here is a link to our video: Is the European Beast Growing Horns?<\/a><\/p>\n

Yet for now, while Europe may appear to be supportive of NATO, in the end Europe will betray the NATO members of the USA, Canada, and UK.<\/p>\n

Consider the following prophecies:<\/p>\n

21 And in his place shall arise a vile person, to whom they will not give the honor of royalty; but he shall come in peaceably, and seize the kingdom by intrigue. (Daniel 11:21)<\/p>\n

39 Thus he shall act against the strongest fortresses with a foreign god, which he shall acknowledge, and advance its glory; and he shall cause them to rule over many, and divide the land for gain. … the king of the North (Daniel 11:39, 40)<\/p>\n

23 “And in the latter time of their kingdom,
\nWhen the transgressors have reached their fullness,
\nA king shall arise,
\nHaving fierce features,
\nWho understands sinister schemes.
\n24 His power shall be mighty, but not by his own power;
\nHe shall destroy fearfully,
\nAnd shall prosper and thrive;
\nHe shall destroy the mighty, and also the holy people.<\/p>\n

25 “Through his cunning
\nHe shall cause deceit to prosper under his rule;
\nAnd he shall exalt himself in his heart.
\nHe shall destroy many in their prosperity. (Daniel 8:23-25)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The above leader is the final European<\/a> King of the North Beast<\/a> power. He will eliminate the USA and the UK. As I have written for many years, it is likely that he may attack under the guise of a NATO exercise and\/or otherwise feign military support for the USA and the UK. Regular readers of this page realize I have been warning about this for many years.<\/p>\n

The Bible shows that Europe will end up with “a great army” (Daniel 11:25) with “many ships” (Daniel 11:40).<\/p>\n

By pushing the Europeans to spend more on their militaries and also increasing their separations from the EU, the USA and UK have been ‘sowing wind,’ but will reap the whirlwind:<\/p>\n

6 … But the calf of Samaria shall be broken to pieces.<\/p>\n

7 “They sow the wind,
\nAnd reap the whirlwind.
\nThe stalk has no bud;
\nIt shall never produce meal.
\nIf it should produce,
\nAliens would swallow it up.
\n8 Israel is swallowed up;
\nNow they are among the Gentiles
\nLike a vessel in which is no pleasure.
\n9 For they have gone up to Assyria,
\nLike a wild donkey alone by itself;
\nEphraim has hired lovers. (Hosea 8:6-9)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The reference to ‘Samaria’ above refers to the USA (see Spiritual Samaritans: Old and New<\/a>) and the reference to Ephraim above refers to the UK, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand (for biblically-related details, check out the article Anglo – America in Prophecy & the Lost Tribes of Israel<\/a>). Assyria is a reference to a European power based out of central Europe (for biblically-related details, check out the article Germany in Biblical Prophecy<\/a>).<\/p>\n

Europe<\/a> will need to reorganize, but the Bible tells of at least two more reorganizations to come in Europe in Revelation 17:2-13 (see also Must the Ten Kings of Revelation 17:12 Rule over Ten Currently Existing Nations?<\/a>).<\/p>\n

Europe is moving in a military direction and Donald Trump is encouraging it. While Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton also encouraged this, their presence and rhetoric simply did not resonate with the Europeans as much as Donald Trump’s has. The Europeans do NOT want Donald Trump back in office. That does NOT mean that things will be better for the USA if Joe Biden or Robert Kennedy, Jr. were to win in 2024. But there will be many unintended consequences of Donald Trump’s statements if he wins in 2024.<\/p>\n

While some do not believe that Europe wants to destroy the USA or is capable of rising up to take over the USA, Canada, and the UK, consider the following two portions of scripture:<\/p>\n

5 “Woe to Assyria, the rod of My anger
\nAnd the staff in whose hand is My indignation.
\n6 I will send him against an ungodly nation,
\nAnd against the people of My wrath
\nI will give him charge,
\nTo seize the spoil, to take the prey,
\nAnd to tread them down like the mire of the streets.
\n7 Yet he does not mean so,
\nNor does his heart think so;
\nBut it is in his heart to destroy,
\nAnd cut off not a few nations.
\n8 For he says,
\n‘Are not my princes altogether kings?
\n9 Is not Calno like Carchemish?
\nIs not Hamath like Arpad?
\nIs not Samaria like Damascus?
\n10 As my hand has found the kingdoms of the idols,
\nWhose carved images excelled those of Jerusalem and Samaria,
\n11 As I have done to Samaria and her idols,
\nShall I not do also to Jerusalem and her idols?'” (Isaiah 10:5-11)<\/p>\n

2 Now the beast which I saw was like a leopard, his feet were like the feet of a bear, and his mouth like the mouth of a lion. The dragon gave him his power, his throne, and great authority. 3 And I saw one of his heads as if it had been mortally wounded, and his deadly wound was healed. And all the world marveled and followed the beast. 4 So they worshiped the dragon who gave authority to the beast; and they worshiped the beast, saying, “Who is like the beast? Who is able to make war with him? (Revelation 13:2-4)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The Bible shows that the European power (called Assyria in Isaiah 10; see also Germany in Biblical Prophecy<\/a>) does not think it intends to be militaristic, but that it will and will conquer. The Bible shows that the world will marvel that Europe was able to be such a military power as Europe basically had been dismissed as irrelevant.<\/p>\n

It is quite likely that some version of NATO will survive, but that Europe will use NATO as a shield from Russia, and eventually turn against the USA and its Anglo-Saxon descended allies. That will essentially be a fulfillment of the following:<\/p>\n

\n
1<\/span> How lonely sits the city That was full of people! How like a widow is she, Who was great among the nations! The princess among the provinces Has become a slave! <\/span><\/div>\n
2<\/span> She weeps bitterly in the night, Her tears are on her cheeks; Among all her lovers She has none to comfort her. All her friends have dealt treacherously with her; They have become her enemies. (Lamentations 1:1-2)
\n<\/span><\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n

That will be the end of NATO and the USA.<\/p>\n

For those that think this could not happen to the USA, recall that Daniel 11:39 shows that a European power will destroy the ‘strongest fortresses’–which in the 21st century belong to the USA, this shows that the USA will be defeated, despite its military strength (see also USA in Prophecy: The Strongest Fortresses<\/a>).<\/p>\n

PESCO and a Great European Army<\/a><\/h3>\n

In November 2018, French President Macron called for a \u201ctrue European army\u201d because of China, Russia, and the USA. Some others in Europe have echoed that sentiment. On November 9, 2018, US President Donald Trump called that an insult, but the next day said that the USA wanted \u201ca very strong Europe.\u201d Emmanuel Macron referred to Donald Trump as \u201cmy friend\u201d and indicated a desire to strengthen Europe\u2019s military spending. In December 2017, 25 European nations agreed to be part of a military alliance called PESCO. Europe also has NATO and IEI. Will Europe end up with \u201ca great army\u201d? Has Donald Trump\u2019s announcement to withdraw from the 1987 Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty gotten some to say that Europe must rebel against the USA? Is the idea of a United States of Europe and a European army a \u201cparanoid fantasy\u201d or a biblical reality? Will the USA regret Europe becoming a stronger military power? Will the USA be betrayed by \u201cfriends\u201d such as its continental European allies? Does the Bible teach any or all of this? Are there connections to the Beast of Revelation or the King of the North of Daniel 11? Dr. Thiel addresses these matters in this video.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Here is a link to the sermonette video: PESCO and a Great European Army.<\/a><\/p>\n

Europe is taking military steps and the USA is encouraging them.<\/p>\n

This will not end well for the USA, many Muslim countries, nor even Europe (cf. Daniel 11:39-45; Revelation 17:14).<\/p>\n

Russia is another matter (see Russia and Ukraine: Their Origins and Prophesied Future<\/a>).<\/p>\n
