Galvanized by the Occupy Wall Street movement, the protests began in New Zealand, rippled round the world to Europe and were expected to return to their starting point in New York.<\/p>\n

Most rallies were however small and barely held up traffic. The biggest anticipated was in Rome, where organizers said they believed 100,000 would take part…New Zealand and Australia<\/a> got the ball rolling on Saturday…<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Obama<\/em> plans to turn anti-Wall Street anger on Mitt Romney, Republicans<\/a><\/h3>\n

\u200e
\nWashington Post – Peter Wallsten<\/a> – 14 October 2011<\/p>\n

President Obama<\/a> and his team have decided to turn public anger at Wall Street into a central tenet of their reelection strategy...<\/strong><\/div>\n
In recent days, Obama has ramped up his rhetoric. He took the unusual step of targeting an individual company when he attacked Bank of America for its new $5 monthly debit-card fee<\/a>, calling it \u201cexactly the sort of stuff that folks are frustrated by.\u201d And his campaign and the White House have distributed messages blasting GOP candidates and lawmakers for wanting to repeal Wall Street regulations pushed by Obama and opposing the confirmation of a leader for the consumer protection bureau created as part of the overhaul…Obama has tried this line of attack before, railing in 2009 against \u201cfat-cat bankers\u201d who he accused of taking excessive bonuses in the wake of the financial meltdown.<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n

While I do not agree with all the political shenanigans involving banks and banking bailouts, I believe that the main point of the protesters is class warfare.\u00a0 Many of the protesters apparently believe that they are entitled to assets that other people have accumulated. US President Barack Obama, in my view, has repeatedly encouraged class warfare through his rhetoric and so the \u201cOccupy\u201d movement is no surprise (I believe that if he is re-elected, that there is a good chance that Barack Obama will see protests turning increasingly violent in the future).<\/p>\n

US President Barack Obama, presuming that he is re-elected, will likely live to regret the fact that he seems to be encouraging protests or at least parts of their message. Back in February 2011, he also encouraged the protesters in Wisconsin (see ICG: Is Barack Obama Encouraging Protests?<\/a>). Back on February 19, 2011, I wrote that encouraging protesters could come back to haunt Barack Obama later down the road. And not only do I believe that, I believe that ultimately protesters will become increasingly violent as protests will at some point turn to riots and civil unrest.<\/p>\n

While I am not trying to say that protesters do not have any point, the reality is that producing more goods and services, from a carnal perspective, is economically what the USA needs (Europe could benefit from that as well, but has structural issues that it needs to address).<\/p>\n

National repentance is the only real long-term hope for the USA (and it seems to be too late for that), the political leadership in the USA has largely ignored that approach. 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

Jesus foretold troubles as part of the beginning of sorrows:<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

8 For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be earthquakes in various places, and there will be famines and troubles. These are the beginnings of sorrows. (Mark 13:8)<\/p>\n

3 When He opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature saying, “Come and see.” 4 Another horse, fiery red, went out. And it was granted to the one who sat on it to take peace from the earth, and that people should kill one another; and there was given to him a great sword. (Revelation 6:3-4)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

But an even worse hour of trial is coming first (Revelation 3:10; Jeremiah 30:7).<\/p>\n

As Jesus said:<\/p>\n

37 And what I say to you, I say to all: Watch! (Mark 13:36-37)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Tougher times are coming. And for some parts of the world these tougher time may be here now. People who can prepare, should: both spiritually and physically. Westerners need to realize that this will not only affect people in places like Africa, Asia, and the Middle East–the Anglo-descended nations of the West will themselves suffer hunger, civil unrest, famine, and worse. Of course, between the recent London riots in the UK (Ephraim) and earlier “flashmobs” in the USA (Manasseh), and even these “Occupy” protests (even in Canada, Ephraim), to a degree, this unrest has began.<\/p>\n

And speaking of the Anglo-descended nations, in a recent co-worker letter, Dr. Roderick C. Meredith of the Living Church of God<\/a> wrote:<\/p>\n

\n

So it seems that the “beginning of sorrows” has certainly been escalating in Ephraim and Manasseh! Maybe it will help some few people to actually “wake up”! (Meredith RC. LCG Co-worker letter, August 15, 2011)<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The sorrows and troubles are just beginning and will get much worse. Hopefully, people will wake up.<\/p>\n
