The result would be to endanger the AAA sovereign debt ratings of other  member states. It makes no sense.&#8221; Mr. Sch\u00e4uble basically told Washington to  &#8220;mind its own business&#8221; following Mr. Obama&#8217;s comments. &#8220;It&#8217;s always much easier  to give advice to others than to decide for yourself. I am well prepared to give  advice to the U.S. government.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p>Some are concerned that Mr. Sh\u00e4uble&#8217;s comments could anger the U.S., which is  currently &#8220;propping up&#8221; EU debt with U.S. dollars (<em>The Telegraph<\/em>,  September 27, 2011). The once-strong relationship between Germany and the U.S.  was hit hard at the start of the Gulf War. It took another &#8220;hit&#8221; this week.<\/p>\n<p>Bible prophecy reveals that in the future, the German-led European Beast  power will become a powerful adversary of many Israelite-descended nations  (Isaiah 10:5-6; Hosea 11) during a time God refers to as the &#8220;time of Jacob&#8217;s  trouble&#8221; (Jeremiah 30:7). As world events move forward, look for further  alienation of the U.S., Britain, and other western European and  British-descended nations.

But he said he understands  the backlash against that bailout now being voiced in the protests.\u00a0 &#8220;I  think people are frustrated, and the protesters are giving voice to a  more broad-based frustration about how our financial system works,&#8221; he  said.\u00a0 <a href=\"http:\/\/money.cnn.com\/2011\/10\/07\/news\/economy\/occupy_wall_street\/\">http:\/\/money.cnn.com\/2011\/10\/07\/news\/economy\/occupy_wall_street\/<\/a><\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"http:\/\/www.usatoday.com\/news\/nation\/story\/2011-10-06\/dc-wall-street-protest\/50683204\/1\"><em>Protesting<\/em> &#8216;occupiers&#8217; spread message beyond <em>Wall Street<\/em><\/a><\/h3>\n<p>\u200eUSA Today &#8211; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.google.com\/search?hl=en&amp;gl=us&amp;biw=1280&amp;bih=860&amp;tbm=nws&amp;q=author:%22Donna+Leinwand+Leger%22&amp;sa=X&amp;ei=DmKQTpTzBIWvsQKy_6jDAQ&amp;sqi=2&amp;ved=0CFsQ1AcoADAF\">Donna Leinwand Leger<\/a> &#8211; 7 October 2011<br \/>\n<em>Protests<\/em> against <em>Wall Street<\/em> spread across USA&#8230; At a news conference, President Obama said he understands the public&#8217;s frustration with economic inequality and the regulatory failures that  led to problems in the U.S. financial industry.

The carnal \u201csolutions\u201d offered and  agreed to by both political parties in the USA will not get it back on  track economically.  Its economy may appear to do better for a while,  but in the long run, the USA does not have real solutions to its  economic woes.  There are carnal solutions that the USA could do now  (mainly related to energy production and tariffs) that could help extend the  situation, but too many of its leaders have rejected God and have the  type of \u201creprobate mind\u201d that prevents them from seeing even those  \u201cconvenient\u201d options (cf. Romans 1:18-32, KJV).   The debate I have  heard from some politicians and pundits on the USA economy  strongly suggests to me, at least, that many do not understand  production, economics, job-creation, nor the Bible.<\/p>\n<p>Few seem to tie the national legalization of <a href=\"\/abortion.htm\">abortions<\/a> in the U.S.A. in 1973, the increased legalizations of homosexual marriages (e.g. <a title=\"Permanent Link to NY Approves \u2018Homosexual Marriage\u2019 Law, but Does Not See the Handwriting on the Wall\" rel=\"bookmark\" href=\"\/news\/prophecy\/ny-approves-homosexual-marriage-law-but-does-not-see-the-handwriting-on-the-wall\/\">NY Approves \u2018Homosexual Marriage\u2019 Law, but Does Not See the Handwriting on the Wall<\/a>), and the Obama Administration\u2019s decision to want to repeal the Defense of Marriage Act (see <a title=\"Permanent Link to Obama Announces He Wants to Repeal Defense of Marriage Act and Increase Debt\" rel=\"bookmark\" href=\"\/news\/prophecy\/obama-announces-he-wants-to-repeal-defense-of-marriage-act-and-increase-debt\/\">Obama Announces He Wants to Repeal Defense of Marriage Act and Increase Debt<\/a>)  as important factors in what is happening.  But all of those, as well  as the promotion of violence in the U.S.A. (including certain sports),  as well as other sins, are factors behind what is happening.<\/p>\n<p>Chapter 8 of my book <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thesecretsect.com\">2012 and the Rise of the Secret Sect<\/a> is titled <em>Barack Obama, Islam, and the End of America.<\/em> In that chapter I wrote that Barack Obama would cause people to err per Isaiah 3:12 &amp; 9:16, not encourage people to repent of sins,  but instead have policies that are focused on not relying on God.  Sadly, he is doing so.<\/p>\n<p><em>Some items of possibly related interest may include:<\/em><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"\/britishisrael.htm\">Anglo \u2013 America in Prophecy &amp; the  Lost Tribes of Israel<\/a> Are the Americans, Canadians, British, Scottish, Welsh, Australians,    Anglo-Southern Africans, and New Zealanders descendants of Joseph?
