World Religions Summit 2010
Religious Leaders Summit Interfaith Leaders in the G8 Nations
In June, Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper announced that from June
21st to the 23rd 2010, the G8 Summit would gather in Hunstville, Ontario. Days
prior to the Summit, up to a hundred global religious leaders from diverse faiths
including Christianity, Judaism, Hindu, Sikh, Buddhist, Islam, Indigenous
Spirituality and Shinto traditions will gather for the 5th G8 Religious Leaders
Summit in Winnipeg, Manitoba. The event is being organized by the 2010
Interfaith Partnership, and will bring together leaders from the G8 countries
(France, Germany, Italy, Canada, Japan, Russia, the United Kingdom, and the
United States) and Africa. The Religious Leaders Summit was organized to
compliment the G8 political leaders Summit.
...The G8 Religious Leaders Summitbegan as an idea fromJim Walliswith a
virtual meeting in Scotland in 2005. The first actual meeting took place in Russia
in 2006, followed by Germany in 2007, Japan in 2008, and Italy in 2009. Since
1975, political leaders from the G8 countries have met annually to discuss the
worlds toughest issues. 2010 will mark the fifth G8 Summit hosted by Canada
since the country joined the international organization in 1976.

Vatican Set To Criticize Israel
Israeli attack on Gaza flotilla provokes more violence, says Pope From The
Hindu
Pope Benedict was speaking ahead of his visit on Friday to Cyprus, the
Mediterranean island nation from which the ill-fated flotilla carrying aid for the
blockaded Gaza Strip had set sail.
A working document which is expected to criticise the ongoing Israeli occupation
of the Palestinian territories, will be presented by the pontiff in Cyprus in
preparation for a synod assembly of bishops from the Middle East region slated
for October.
The Vatican has repeatedly denounced worsening economic conditions in the
Palestinian territories, saying they are also contributing to an exodus of
Christians from the area.

Turkey and Israel close to brink
From Debka File
The war projected between Israel and the Iran-led bloc of Syria, Hizballah and
Hamas is suddenly overshadowed by Turkish-Israeli hostilities over a deadly
Israeli commando raid on an aid flotilla from Istanbul. Against the US president
Barack Obama's bid to bridge the rift, Turkish generals are drawing up plans to
break Israel's Gaza blockade and avenge 9 deaths, while Israel is bound by its
war on terror to thwart them - bringing both to the brink of overt hostilities.

Giant Sinkhole Open Up In Guatemala City
Tropical Storm Agatha swept across
Central America yesterday, bringing
torrential rain that killed more than 100
people and opened a 60m-deep
sinkhole in Guatemala City which
reportedly swallowed up a three-storey
building.The first named storm of the
2010 Pacific season dumped more than a metre of rain in parts of Guatemala,
also hitting El Salvador and Honduras.
At least 113 people were reported killed, with around 50 missing in Guatemala
alone as rescue workers searched through the rubble.The 30m-diameter
sinkhole opened up in a northern district of Guatemala City, with residents
blaming the rains and substandard drainage systems. Local reports said one
man was killed when the building was swallowed. In 2007, three people died
when a similar sinkhole appeared in the same area.

Israel stations nuclear missile subs off Iran
From Times Online
Three German-built Israeli submarines equipped with nuclear cruise missiles are
to be deployed in the Gulf near the Iranian coastline.
The first has been sent in response to Israeli fears that ballistic missiles
developed by Iran, Syria and Hezbollah, a political and military organisation in
Lebanon, could hit sites in Israel, including air bases and missile launchers.
The submarines of Flotilla 7 Dolphin, Tekuma and Leviathan have visited
the Gulf before. But the decision has now been taken to ensure a permanent
presence of at least one of the vessels.
The flotillas commander, identified only as Colonel O, told an Israeli
newspaper: We are an underwater assault force. Were operating deep and far,
very far, from our borders.

US Calls For Global Carbon Transparency, EU Suffers Carbon Fraud
Despite the fact that the UN professor behind the global warming "hockey-stick"
graph now suggests global warming may not be a man-made phenomenon, the
US is driving on with a call for worldwide transparency on measures for
combating climate change.
The US climate change representative said Wednesday that all countries must
adopt transparency and accept external reviews of their greenhouse emissions,
leaving note that global cooperation is very important to ensure that the
worldwide campaign for carbon intensity reduction is heading to the right
direction.
Speaking before an audience in Beijing's Tsinghua University, US envoy Todd
Stern said that the United States treats the issue of transparency with so much
importance, stressing that "countries need to be able to see what track the world
is on generally, where we are going."
Editor's note:
The Fourth Annual International Conference On Climate Change on May 16
resulted in a less than convincing verdict on man made climate change:
Among the nearly three dozen scientists speaking at the event were Dr. Craig
Idso, Center for the Study of Carbon Dioxide and Global Change, on the real
impacts of ocean acidification; Dr. Gary Sharp, marine biologist, on ecological
responses to climate change; Dr. Nils-Axel Morner, Stockholm University, on his
8/9/2019 Watcher's Lamp June 2
7/14
theory that there is no imminent threat of alarming rising of sea levels; and Dr.
Howard Maccabee, Doctors for Disaster Preparedness, on health data refuting
the urgency for Environmental Protection Agency regulation ofcarbon dioxide.
...Dr. Ian Plimer, University of Adelaide, Australia, reminded his audience that
most of the carbon on Earth is solid - in other words, rocks. He also spoke on the
importance of deep sea volcanoes and other earth mantle sources of carbon
dioxide and other carbon compounds, and proposed that we should be careful
before we claim to know the cycling of carbon on a complex system like planet
earth.
Editor's note: Don't look now, but carbon fraud is now worth millions in the EU:
The EU's climate chief is facing pressure to explain her failure to crack down on a
loophole that allowed alleged fraudsters a large number of them based in
Britain to make millions of euros throughEurope's emissions trading scheme.
Confidential documents seen by the Guardian show that Connie Hedegaard, the
European commissioner for climate action, had been informed about fraudsters
targeting the Danish carbon registry to enable them to trade in credits last
summer, as the UK and the Netherlands were clamping down on the fraud by
scrapping VAT on carbon trading.
An MEP last week lodged an official question asking what happened to the
Danish registry while Hedegaard was climate minister, and what is being done
acrossEuropeto combat carbon fraud.
Ed. note 2: Oh, and by the way, Wall Street and the financial industry is
preparing to help save the planet:
...Banks intend to become the intermediaries in this fledgling market. Although
U.S. carbon legislation may not pass for a year or more, Wall Street has already
spent hundreds of millions of dollars hiring lobbyists and making deals with
companies that can supply them with carbon offsets to sell to clients.
8/9/2019 Watcher's Lamp June 2

...The banks are preparing to do with carbon what theyve done before: design
and market derivatives contracts that will help client companies hedge their price
risk over the long term. Theyre also ready to sell carbon-related financial
products to outside investors.
Masters says banks must be allowed to lead the way if a mandatory carbon-
trading system is going to help save the planet at the lowest possible cost. And
derivatives related to carbon must be part of the mix, she says. Derivatives are
securities whose value is derived from the value of an underlying commodity -- in
this case, CO2 and other greenhouse gases.
This requires a massive redirection of capital, Masters says. You cant have a
successful climate policy without the heavy, heavy involvement of financial
institutions.

Obama Calls For US To Lead New World Order
Obama redefines national security strategy, looks beyond military might
By Karen DeYoung
Washington Post Staff Writer
Thursday, May 27, 2010; 6:07 AM
In a broad redefinition of U.S. strategic priorities, President Obama has said that
the United States must revitalize its own economic, moral and innovative strength
if it is to continue to lead the world.
Just as it did following World War II, the United States today must also shape a
8/9/2019 Watcher's Lamp June 2
9/14
new international order and system of global institutions that reflect a 21st
century reality in which "America's greatness is not assured," Obama says in a
52-page "National Security Strategy" released Thursday morning.
"As we fight the wars in front of us, we must see the horizon beyond them," he
writes in an introduction to the document. "To get there, we must pursue a
strategy of national renewal and global leadership -- a strategy that rebuilds the
foundation of American strength and influence."

Will Pope Declare The Lady of Nations Coredemptrix on May 31?
While the Roman Catholic Church is still reeling from the
global sex abuse scandal, will the Pope throw the proverbial
"Hail Mary" by declaring Mary Co-Redemptrix, Mediatrix of
all Graces and Advocate, otherwise known as the 5th Marian
Dogma?
Such an announcement, if made on May 31, would
coincide with the prophecies issued by the apparition of
Mary concerning the 5th Marian Dogma on the date of
May 31. The apparition also identified itself as The Lady
of Nations:
"This day [May 31] will in due time, be the 'Coronation Day' of His Mother, 'the
Lady of All Nations,' who once was Mary" (May 31, 1954). "Hold yourself in
readiness for May 31st" (May 23, 1963). "The Holy Father will proclaim Her Co-
Redemptrix, Mediatrix, and Advocate" (May 31, 1979). "He has but to command
and it will happen" (December 3, 1949). "First, however, let the Church and the
8/9/2019 Watcher's Lamp June 2
10/14
nations invoke Mary under the new title and say Her prayer" (October 11, 1953).
"...You will have to help him to achieve this [by signing the petition and saying the
prayer]. Make no mistake about it" (May 31, 1954).
"I have chosen this day: on this day (May 31) the Lady will be crowned!" ("The
Lady of All Nations: Coredemptrix, Mediatrix and Advocate" on May 31, 1954.)
"The Lady of All Nations' most fervent desire is to save souls, bring the peace of
the Holy Spirit to the nations, and make Our Lord's Cross the center of this world.
Thus, "Her mission is to gather all nations into One Community" (cf May 31,
1955).
"On May 31, 1952, She said: "The Church is the Community of Nations...TheChurch is and remains!" This is underscored in a vision of September 21, 1951 in
which a crown is placed on the head of the Vicar of Christ, the Pope, who is the
spiritual leader of the Church. The Pope, the visible head of the One and Only
Church, the Catholic Church, represents Christ the King, Lord of All Nations,
Who has dominion over all nations. "
Editor's note: During his visit to Fatima this month Benedict XVI referred to Mary
as mediatrix of grace.

ISRAEL HAS 122 TRILLION CUBIC FEET OF NATURAL GAS OFFSHORE
From Joel Rosenberg:
A recently-released report by the U.S.
Department of Interior indicates that Israel
has massive reserves of natural gas and oil
supplies just offshore, lying under the
Mediterranean.
The U.S. Geological Survey estimated a
mean 1.7 billion barrels of recoverable oil anda mean of 122 trillion cubic feet of natural gas
in the Levant Basin Province using a geology based assessment methodology,
stated the reports executive summary.
Israelis for years have lamented that if God wanted to bless them with a
promised land He could have given them the oil-rich Arabian peninsula. Thus
the report has become big news in the Israeli media and the energy industry.
Several oil and gas companies are already at work there and have made more
modest discoveries in recent years. But this is by far the biggest development to
date and some reports indicate Israel could begin using the natural gas and
possibly exporting it within two years.
A U.S. energy company announced [in March] that a project it is developing off
the Israeli coast could soon end the countrys longtime dependence on natural
gas imports, reported Ynet News, a major Israeli daily. Noble Energy Chief
Executive Charles D. Davidson said the Tamar gas field set to become
operational in 2012 will allow Israel to meet its own energy needs, and
potentially even become an exporter of fuel.Tamars five wells are each
expected to pump 150 million cubic feet of natural gas per day a pace on par
with the Houston companys other wells operating in places like the Gulf of
Mexico, he said. The company hopes to open operations in a second Israeli field,
called Dalit, at a later time. The possibility of exporting fuel would mark a
8/9/2019 Watcher's Lamp June 2
12/14
dramatic turnaround for Israel, a country in an oil-rich region that is notoriously
empty of natural resources and has always relied heavily on fuel imports. The
late Prime Minister Golda Meir famously lamented that Moses could have picked
somewhere other than the one spot in the Middle East that has no oil as a
Jewish homeland. A national supply of natural gas could mean major energy
savings for Israeli citizens, as well as revenue for the government from corporate
taxes and profit royalties, Davidson said.

THE FEAST OF PENTECOST
50 days counted out from Firstfruits is Shavuot or Pentecost. God comes down to
His covenant people in an earthshaking day of visitation. It is a betrothal leading
into magnificent future glories.
By Gavin Finley at End Time Pilgrim:
8/9/2019 Watcher's Lamp June 2
14/14
50 days from the day the firstfruits of the barley harvest was waved before the
Lord, (50 days from the morrow after the sabbath after Passover), is Shavuot or
the Day of Pentecost. Rabbinic scholars believe that it was on this day that God
visited His people after their exodus from Egypt and through Moses, brought the
Law down from Mount Sinai. This earthshaking day of visitation, trembling, and
betrothal is the birthday of the nation of Israel...
...50 days from the day theFirstfruitsof the barley harvest was waved before the
Lord, (that is 50 days from the morrow after the weekly (Saturday) sabbath after
Passover), in the summer of the year of Yeshua's passion, YHVH-God visits His
people by His Holy Spirit. This is another earthshaking day of visitation and
betrothal. But on this occasion God's Presence is not as unapproachable as on
the former visitation back at Sinai. Moses had ordered 12 boundary markers
placed around the foot of the mountain to hold back the people lest the fire of
God flash out upon them. Amidst the thunderings and lightnings God came down
as a consuming fire andblackened the entire summit. Only Moses could stand in
God's Presence.
