Trump Administration Slams Russia and Warns Israel

By Julio Severo

In her first appearance as U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations on Thursday, Nikki Haley blamed Russia for the recent surge of violence in eastern Ukraine and warned sanctions against Russia will not be lifted until Moscow returns Crimea to Kiev.

Her remarks came amid speculation that U.S. President Donald Trump is changing his intentions towards Russia. Throughout his campaign, Trump had praised Russian President Vladimir Putin and expressed a wish for improved relations between the two countries.

On Thursday Putin accused Ukraine of starting the latest escalation to get from the Trump administration the same support it got from the Obama administration.

Ukraine is concerned that Trump could revoke the sanctions Obama had imposed on Russia. Allegedly, the sanctions were over Crimea, but Dr. Scott Lively has exposed that Obama’s real reason was the Russian law banning homosexual propaganda to children.

The Russian annexation of Crimea was a direct answer to the neocon coup in Ukraine funded by the left-wing billionaire George Soros.

“The Ukrainian leadership needs money, and the best way to get the EU, the U.S. and international organizations to pay is by posing as a victim of aggression,” Putin said.

Yet, Russia was not the only nation warned by the Trump administration. On Thursday, while Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was reiterating his support for the settlements, the Trump administration was condemning them. According to the Jerusalem Post,

“The White House warned Israel on Thursday — in a surprising statement — to cease settlement announcements that are ‘unilateral’ and ‘undermining’ of President Donald Trump’s effort to forge Middle East peace.”

The Jerusalem Post explained that the Thursday statement is a change from recent actions by Trump, saying,

“Under Trump’s leadership, reference to a two-state solution was removed from the Republican Party platform over the summer, and the president’s envoy to Israel has publicly supported the settlement enterprise.”

Now, for the first time, the Trump administration declared that its intention is an Israeli State and Palestinian State in the land of Israel. The White House said,

“The United States remains committed to advancing a comprehensive final-status agreement between Israel and the Palestinians that results in two states living side-by-side in peace and security.”

The only explanation for such dramatic changes in Trump’s actions and words is pressure from neocons. Even though Trump has spoken against neocons throughout his campaign, his change in foreign affairs is a sign that he is under pressure to follow the same neocon agenda of Obama and Bush.

His domestic policies are rallying fabulous support among conservatives within the United States, especially on pro-life issues, even though Trump said that he will keep in place Obama’s homosexualist laws.

Perhaps his foreign policy may prevail against neocons and be different from Obama and Bush, if he listens to his charismatic advisers.

Trump praying with evangelicals, including charismatics

While his administration was criticizing Russia and Israel, Trump was attending the National Prayer Breakfast, with televangelist Paula White at his right hand.

Trump and White have been friends for 15 years.

Highly acclaimed evangelist Rick Warren spoke at the National Prayer Breakfast. 

Trump posted a picture of himself and his inner circle praying and he wrote alongside the image: “Moment of prayer last night after my nomination of Judge Neil Gorsuch.”

Trump received an estimated 80 per cent of the evangelical vote. He was heavily supported by televangelists, and he pledged them to defund Planned Parenthood, the largest network of abortion clinics in the world.

Trump supporter Rev. Jerry Falwell Jr, president of the Virginia-based Liberty University, a non-profit Christian institute, told the Washington Post: “I think Trump is more one of us. He’s not an elitist. He doesn’t look down his nose at evangelicals and Christians and conservatives. I’m very shocked by how accessible he is to so many. He answers his cellphone any time of the day or night.”

The only hope now is that evangelicals who are close to Trump use their opportunities to encourage him to follow his own speech on neocons and avoid the same pitfalls in the foreign policy that Obama and Bush fell into.

The Trump administration should not warn Israel for occupying the land God gave to Jews, not to Palestinians. This is an Israeli, not an American, business.

And he should not keep the unnecessary meddling that Obama made in the relationship Russia has with Crimea. This is a Russian, not an American, business.

If evangelicals cannot help Trump, neocons will keep him in the disastrous orbit of Obama’s and Bush’s foreign policy.

Trump and Prophecies, and a New Model of National and World Leader

What Is Neoconservatism (Neocon)?

Trump and Prophecies, and a New Model of National and World Leader

By Julio Severo

There are some prophecies about President Donald Trump, and they are fascinating. “Trump shall become a trumpet, says the Lord,” the South African “singing prophet” Kim Clement bellowed in a recording reportedly made April 4, 2007, in Redding, California.

“Trump shall become a trumpet. I will raise up the Trump to become a trumpet. I will raise up the Trump to become a trumpet and Bill Gates to open up the gate of a financial realm for the church, says the Lord.”

Clement went on to say, or sing: “It shall come to pass that the man I place in the highest office shall go in whispering my name. But God said, when he enters into office, he will be shouting out by the power of the Spirit. For I shall fill him with my Spirit when he goes into office and there will be a praying man in the highest seat in your land.”

He said something similar, according to the recording, on Feb. 10, 2007: “There will be a praying president, not a religious one, for I will fool the people, says the Lord. I will fool the people, yes I will, God says, the one that is chosen shall go in and they shall say, ‘He has hot blood.’ For the Spirit of God says, yes, he may have hot blood, but he will bring the walls of protection on this country in a greater way and the economy of this country shall change rapidly, says the Lord of hosts.”

“Listen to the word of the Lord, God says, I will put at your helm for two terms a president that will pray, but he will not be a praying president when he starts,” Clement continued. “I will put him in office and then I will baptize him with the Holy Spirit and my power, says the Lord of hosts.”

Clement also prophesied about several other prominent people, but these prophecies have never been fulfilled. Can his prophecy about Trump come true? I do not know, but if his prophecy is real, my interpretation is that God is giving Trump a chance, as he gave Saul a chance. There is no harm in praying that Trump may use his God-given opportunity to do God’s will.

There are also other interesting prophecies about Trump. Stephen Powell, in a recent article in Charisma magazine, said he heard God’s voice saying:

I have chosen you Mr. Trump, and you will be a leader to many, not just of your people, but of the world. You will not just be seen, Mr. Trump, but you will be heard, for I have released a sound in you, and that sound shall be heard around the world. It will ring true and loud, and be like a shock wave in many countries.

As you honor Israel, I will honor you.

I have chosen Donald Trump to forerun a new model of national leader; yea, even a new form of world leader.

Actually, Trump’s speech against neocons was a breakthrough, a new model of leadership. No other American president has ever spoken so forcefully against neocons as Trump did in his political campaign. Will he fulfill the war he promised to wage against neocons? I do not know.

Are these prophecies about Trump trustworthy? I do not know. But there is no harm in praying that Trump may use his God-given opportunity to do God’s will.

I was ecstatic that the first action of President Donald Trump was to defund the International Planned Parenthood Federation, this vast machine of family planning, abortion and sex education. This is one of the evilest organizations in the world.

Christians, including me, rejoiced in the first big pro-life action by Trump.

Yet, George W. Bush took the exact same action in the first day of his administration. He defunded the International Planned Parenthood Federation.

Christians, including me, rejoiced in the first big pro-life action by Bush.

And, yes, there were wonderful prophecies about Bush.

Many years ago, Hank Kunneman said:

“After Clinton, I will raise up a man like David,” the Lord said. “A chosen man after My heart who will lead this nation in righteousness.”

I had a vision just before the 2000 election in which I saw the Lord remove Al Gore and place Bush in the White House. I prophesied about this publicly, so you can imagine my concern when newscasters initially announced that Gore had won. I wanted to hide!

“America will enter a season of war, but restoration has begun. I want this man seated for eight years, for as righteousness is seated, all things will be exposed.”

Prophets and their prophecies are never perfect. Even though we know now that Saudi Arabia is the main sponsor of international Islamic terrorism and that the ten terrorists who attacked the World Trade Center were Saudi Muslims, Kunneman said,

Like many churches, my congregation met to pray on September 11, 2001. While praying, I asked the Lord who was responsible for the attack. I then had a vision of a heart with the word “Afghanistan” written in the center. The words “Syria” and “Iraq” appeared around it.

Because Bush and Obama intervened in these nations, but did not help Christians persecuted in the aftermath of their bad decisions, the U.S. interventions resulted in total chaos for Christians.

The Iraq War was a humanitarian disaster for Christians. During his campaign, Donald Trump said that the Bush administration lied about his reasons to invade Iraq. Trump said that he opposed such invasion. Christians in Iraq took a very heavy toll for Bush’s bad decision. The Iraqi Christian community, which was over 2 million before the U.S. invasion, is now less than 400,000.

Bush had a very strong interest in the Iraq oil, but no interest in the Christian blood of Iraqis.

Neocons wanted the Iraq War, and they got it. They want the Syrian War, and under Obama they almost got it. And, of course, they want war with Russia.

Neocons represent war and disaster and even when an evangelical follows them, the result is always war and disaster.

The biggest mistake of evangelical Bush was to follow neocons. It was a disastrous mistake.

Evangelical Trump, praised by new prophecies, has condemned the Iraq War. And he has condemned neocons, who dominated in the Bush and Obama administrations.

The Trump chosen by prophecies condemned the Bush chosen by prophecies. In fact, Bush said that he did not vote for Trump.

People chosen by God through prophecies are imperfect. Prophets and their prophecies are imperfect.

Even though people and their ideologies (including theological ideologies) always change, God never changes. He was, He is and He will always be a prophetic God.

God chose Saul as king of Israel. But He needed to replace His own choice. Is He imperfect too? Very early in his kingship, or administration, Saul violated God’s will several times, and he was rejected. The chosen was rejected.

Does God know how to choose? Of course, He does! But free will is for everyone, including those chosen by God.

God replaced the loser Saul with David, who behaved rightly and wisely in the early years of his kingship. But the David administration was plagued, after his adultery, by several calamities, including a violent uprising led by one of his own sons.

God chose Saul, who by his own free will chose to be a loser by violating God’s will.

God replaced the chosen Saul with David, who did not lose his kingship, but lost much of his peace of mind and his people also lost much of their peace of mind by his adultery. His personal sin severely affected his administration and ability to rule in peace.

Just because a man is chosen by God does not mean that he will do everything right. Saul did not and was rejected. David also committed many mistakes, but he repented, and God chose to give him more chances.

If evangelical leaders who prophesied about Bush and Trump are false prophets, is God also a false god because He chose the loser and imperfect Saul?

If prophecies are correct, God wants Trump to be baptized in the Holy Spirit and become a praying president. There is no harm in praying that Trump may get these blessings.

There is no harm in praying that he may not imitate the calamitous mistakes of Bush.

And there is no harm in praying that God may protect him from the wicked influence and pressures from neocons, who inspired Bush to launch the Iraq War, which destroyed thousands of Christians in Iraq.

God can use Trump against neocons. And in this war, he will be a new model of national and world leader.

Pro-Family Warmongers, Pro-Sodomy Neocons and Pro-Sodomy Non-Neocons: What Is Worse for Christians?

By Julio Severo

I was watching Franklin Graham, son of the evangelist Billy Graham, on the left-wing CNN (https://youtu.be/_2-ycehCnuM) wisely answering questions as the host pressed him to condemn Russian intervention in Syria. For her, this intervention was responsible for massacres, but she never mentioned that Russia was fighting Muslim rebels funded, trained and armed by the Obama administration. She never mentioned that before the Russian intervention, these rebels were torturing, raping and slaughtering Christians. She never mentioned that the real objective of the Obama intervention in Syria, especially through the U.S. State Secretary Hillary Clinton, was never to fight ISIS, but help rebels to overthrow the Syrian President Assad, who is supported by Russia.

Despite the psychological pressure, Graham did not condemn Russia.

The fact is, with Hillary, the U.S. State Department was a war machine making wars against Christians in Syria, Iraq, Libya, Afghanistan, etc. There is evidence that the State Secretary Clinton created and armed ISIS, which slaughtered thousands of Christians. The U.S. created a terrible mess in Iraq, in Libya, in Afghanistan and in Syria.

Also, while Muslims have represented a clear majority of immigrants being welcome and relocated in the U.S. by the State Department, Christians victims account for less than 5 per cent.

Other war fomented by the Obama State Department was the culture war on behalf of the homosexual agenda. It funded and trained homosexual activists around the world. It actively and peremptorily promoted their interests, including by naming the first global envoy for the homosexual agenda.

Hillary was a pro-sodomy neocon at the State Department.

What to expect from a Trump State Secretary? Firstly, consistency with his discourse in the campaign confronting neocons, known for their partnerships with Islamic terror against Russia, and for their openness to Islamic, not Christian, immigrants.

When Trump was considering Mitt Romney for State Secretary, it was hard not to think that the spirit of Hillary would not be continuing her mission through him, because under former Governor Romney Massachusetts was the first U.S. state to legalize homosexual “marriage.” Besides, he wanted to confront Russia in Syria and Ukraine, just as Obama was doing and just as Hillary wanted to do in her dream of a presidency.

Then Trump chose Rex Tillerson, CEO of Exxon Mobil, for State Secretary. Tillerson has a history of good relations with Putin and Russia, but not with ISIS. And he does not seem to want wars, but good relations. This is very good sign.

Different from Hillary, who was killing Christians in Syria through Muslim rebels and ISIS and in Iraq through ISIS, Tillerson seems to understand that there is no point in supporting such unfair war and chastise Russia for its pro-Christian involvement.

Different from Hillary and Obama, hopefully Tillerson may understand that persecuted Christians, not Muslims, should be given priority for immigration.

Yet, there is a concern. Tillerson was a board member of Boy Scouts and approved its infamous decision to allow gay scout leaders. This equals him to Hillary.

However, what if Trump chose Ted Cruz? Cruz’s pro-family and pro-Israel stances are excellent. In foreign policy, he would not use the State Department to promote the homosexual agenda. But regarding Russia, he and neocons like Marco Rubio equal to Hillary: Cruz wanted a confrontation with Russia in Syria and Ukraine over Crimea, a region traditionally Russian for hundreds of years and which Russia has repossessed in 2014. His policy would be a continuation of the Hillary policy.

So, all the choices are hard. Yet, while Hillary and the Obama administration mocked and antagonized the Russian law banning homosexual propaganda to children and eventually imposed sanctions against Russia by using as an excuse the Crimea repossession, Tillerson has spoken out against such sanctions.

If he were so fixated on the gay agenda as Obama and Hillary are, he would probably speak out on behalf of such sanctions.

How to assess the differences? Christians like Ted Cruz are very good in defending life and family. They deserve to be commended for their pro-family efforts. But their neocon efforts to fight Russia while Russia fights ISIS and helps Christians in the Middle East put them on par with Hillary, whose anti-Russian policies were anti-Christian and pro-ISIS and pro-Islamic rebels.

Ted Cruz, Marco Rubio and others are pro-family warmongers. Christians persecuted by Muslims in Syria and other nations would barely have some hope of being helped by their policies, and their pro-family views would be helpful only to pro-family Christians outside of zones of Islamic wars.

Romney would be a continuation of Hillary, with no benefit to pro-family Christians in the U.S. and Christians persecuted by Muslims in other nations.

Tillerson does not seem to be a warmonger. He has no history of wars, but of friendships and deals. This is real change, because the State Department has had too many warmongers for too long.

Tillerson would be perfect if he were a pro-family Christian against the gay agenda — as Ted Cruz would prefect if he were not warmonger and confrontational in a time Russia is looking for peace and partnership against the Islamic terror. Russia has the exact wish Trump showed in his campaign.

In fact, Trump said last week that only stupid people fools would see good ties with Russia as bad. This is in consistency with his campaign and with the history of Tillerson.

If Tillerson were a homosexualist militant, there would be a confrontation between him and Putin, because while he approved gay scout masters to teach homosexual propaganda to children, Putin has approved a ban against such propaganda.

As Trump, Tillerson is open to the gay agenda, but both, different from Hillary and Obama, are open to dialogue.

Yet, when assessing between pro-family warmongers, pro-sodomy neocons and pro-sodomy non-neocons, what is important? The lives of Christians persecuted by Muslims in Syria are as important as the lives of unborn babies defended by good pro-family Christians.

Any State Secretary willing to support the Russian efforts, or at least not interfere negatively as Obama and Hillary did, in Syria is helping save lives, especially Christians victimized by ISIS. In this respect, Tillerson seems to be the only hope for the State Department to stop its pro-Islamic meddling against Christians in Syria.

I hope to be right: Tillerson does not seem a neocon.

Trump Picks Exxon Mobil’s Tillerson as Secretary of State and Faces Fierce Opposition from Neocons from Left and Right

By Julio Severo

President-elect Donald Trump announced Tuesday he has picked Exxon Mobil CEO Rex Tillerson to be secretary of state, calling the oil executive with close to ties to Russia one of the most accomplished international dealmakers in the world.

Rex Tillerson

Tillerson’s business relations with Russian President Vladimir Putin are drawing opposition from Democratic and Republican neocons and will likely pose the toughest challenge for Trump. Republican Senator John McCain said, “I have concerns. It’s very well known that he has a very close relationship with Vladimir Putin,” who is “a KGB agent who is bent on restoring the Russian Empire.”

McCain was praisedby the Islamic State in 2014 for helping them invade Iraq. Just as Obama, he has supported the Syrian rebels, who has been torturing, raping and slaughtering Christians. The only international leader helping Christians in Syria is Putin. McCain prefers partnership with Islamic terrorists against Russia. This is the neocon pattern.

In his campaign, Trump faced fierce opposition from Democratic and Republican neocons. And now he is facing the same opposition from the same people.

One of the main concerns among conservative evangelicals, who were the main group supporting Trump, was: After elected, will Trump he fulfil his promise of confronting neocons, who focus on Russia, not Islamic terror, as the biggest threat?

Neocons have been for decades partnering with Islam and Islamic terror against Russia. In contrast, in his campaign Trump promised a breakthrough: partnership with Russia against Islamic terror.

Apparently, Trump is honoring his promise, because he said that Tillerson’s choice would “help reverse years of misguided foreign policies.” This is a powerful blow on neocons.

Trump called Tillerson’s career “the embodiment of the American dream.”

“His tenacity, broad experience and deep understanding of geopolitics make him an excellent choice for Secretary of State. He will promote regional stability and focus on the core national security interests of the United States,” Trump said.

Trump said that he “knows how to manage a global organization and successfully navigate the complex architecture of world affairs and diverse foreign leaders.”

Yet, the senior Democrat on foreign relations, Bob Menendez, said naming Tillerson secretary of state would be “alarming and absurd … guaranteeing Russia has a willing accomplice in the (Trump) Cabinet guiding our nation’s foreign policy.”

Neocon Republican senator Marco Rubio chimed in: “Being a ‘friend of Vladimir’ is not an attribute I am hoping for from a secretary of state.”

Trump was aware that Tillerson’s announcement would face opposition, but he chose to push through it quickly.

Actually, Tillerson has had multiple contacts with Putin as he negotiated energy deals in Russia, got awarded a medal of friendship by the Russian president, and is captured on video toasting champagne glasses with Putin. 

Rex Tillerson and Vladimir Putin

In 2011, ExxonMobil under Tillerson signed a deal with Rosneft, Russia’s largest state-owned oil company, for joint oil exploration and production. Since then, the companies have formed 10 joint ventures for projects in Russia.

In 2013, Russian President Vladimir Putin awarded Tillerson his nation’s Order of Friendship. 

But the energy deal was put on hold when the Obama administration and its European allies imposed sanctions against Russia allegedly for annexing Crimea, a region traditionally Russian for hundreds of years. Relations between Obama and Putin had in fact begun to turn sour after Russia passed a law banning homosexual propaganda for children. The law was antagonized and mocked by Obama and all the U.S. mainstream media.

ExxonMobil reportedly vowed to resume the agreement after the end of the Obama sanctions – and Tillerson has already spoken out against such sanctions and the economic hardships they impose on Russia.

Normalization of relations between the U.S. and Russia was one of the most prominent promises of Trump during his campaign.

Russian President Vladimir Putin said he was ready to meet with Trump “at any moment."

In the transcript of his interview with journalists which was released Tuesday in Moscow, Putin said, “it’s widely known that the elected president of the United States has publicly called for the normalization of the Russian-American relationship. We cannot but support this.”

Who is Tillerson? A corporate titan, he has traveled the world and represented Exxon in 60 countries. As Trump, he is also soft on the gay agenda. But he never went to war against Putin over the Russian ban against the homosexual propaganda. Obama wanted a war.

Why as a businessman is he ideal as a secretary of state? Most businessmen are interested in doing deals, making money and, if the terms are not met, walking away, not starting a war.

And here is the heart of the objection to Tillerson. He wants to end the Obama sanctions and partner with Putin’s Russia, as does Trump. But among many in the mainstream media, think tanks, websites and especially Republican and Democratic neocons, this is craven appeasement. For neocons, the Cold War is never over.

The attacks on Tillerson coincide with new attacks on Russia, based on CIA sources, alleging that not only did Moscow hackinto the Democratic Party and Hillary campaign, and leak what it found to hurt Hillary Clinton, but Russia was trying to help elect Trump, and succeeded.

Mainstream newspapers, which are rightly seen as left-wing and in such capacity would defend only a socialist Russia, speak of a “darkening cloud” already over the Trump presidency and warn that a failure to investigate and discover the full truth of Russia’s hacking could only “feed suspicion among millions of Americans that the election was indeed rigged.”

Behind the effort to smear Tillerson and delegitimize Trump lies a larger motive. Trump has antagonists in both parties who are alarmed at his triumph because it imperils the foreign-policy agenda that is their raison d’etre, their reason for being.

These people do not want to lift the Obama sanctions on Russia. They do not want an end to the confrontation with Russia. They do not want to force Saudi Arabia from funding ISIS. They want to enlarge NATO to encompass Sweden, Finland, Ukraine, Georgia and Moldova.

They have in mind the permanent U.S. encirclement of Russia.

They want to provide offensive weapons to Kiev to reignite the civil war in the Donbass and enable Ukraine to move on Crimea. This would mean a war with Russia that Ukraine would lose and the U.S. and its NATO allies would be called upon to intervene in and fight.

Their goal is to bring down Putin and bring about “regime change” in Moscow.

In the campaign, Trump said he wanted to get along with Russia, to support all the forces inside Syria and Iraq fighting to wipe out ISIS and al-Qaida, and to stay out of any new Middle East wars – like the disaster in Iraq – that have cost the U.S.  “6 trillion dollars.”

This is what America voted for when it voted for Trump – to put America First and “make America great again.” But neocon agitators are already beating the drums for military confrontation.

Early in his presidency, if not before, Trump is going to have to impose his foreign policy upon his own party and, indeed, upon his own government. Or his presidency will be broken. Or he will govern for neocons or for his voters, according to his promises that got him elected.

He is having a good beginning. By nominating Rex Tillerson for secretary of state, he is directly confronting neocons.

Shifting U.S. policy to right, Trump chooses a pro-lifer and an anti-Islam, pro-Russian adviser

Shifting U.S. policy to right, Trump chooses a pro-lifer and an anti-Islam, pro-Russian adviser

By Julio Severo

President-elect Donald Trump signaled a sharp rightward shift in U.S. national security policy Friday by choosing Alabama Sen. Jeff Sessions as attorney general and retired Lt. Gen Michael Flynn as his national security adviser.

Jeff Sessions and Michael Flynn

A former military intelligence chief, Flynn has accused the Obama administration of being too soft on terrorism and has said that Islam is a “political ideology” and driver of extremism. He sees Russia as a partner against the Islamic terrorism.

Trump’s initial decisions suggest a more aggressive military involvement in strategies against the Islamic terror and a greater emphasis on Islam’s role in stoking extremism.

Under left-wing President Barack Obama, U.S. foreign policy officials, including Hillary Clinton, focused on demonizing Russia by portraying Russia as the biggest threat and on fighting demonization of Islam by portraying Islam as a religion of peace. ISIS has made havoc among Christians and in the Russian borders. Trump has recognized that ISIS was created by Hillary. But Obama has antagonized Russia since Putin passed a law banning homosexual propaganda to children. This law eventually led the Obama administration to launch sanctions against Russia, even though Obama said that the sanctions were motivated by the Russian “invasion” of Crimea, a region traditionally Russian for 1,000 years.

Jeff Sessions is best known for his solid pro-life views. He has a 100% pro-life voting record according to the National Right to Life Committee and has consistently voted for pro-life legislation and in opposition to taxpayer funding of abortions.

Sessions, who will be the first pro-life attorney general since President George W Bush, said, “Our policies in this country as a nation should focus on life, should focus on decency, and focus on love for even the least of these.” He will bring to the Justice Department a consistently conservative voice.

Under pro-abortion Obama, pro-abortion Attorneys General have labeled pro-life advocates terrorists, went after pro-life people who peacefully protest outside abortion clinics, and refused to properly investigate and prosecute the Planned Parenthood abortion business for engaging in the sales of aborted baby body parts.

Of Trump’s new personnel picks, Michael Flynn will have the most direct access to the president. His role as a national security adviser will center on coordinating the policy positions of the secretaries of state, defense, justice and other members of a president’s national security team.

He is known in the military intelligence community as a smart professional and unconventional thinker. He was forced out of the Defense Intelligence Agency in 2014 because he disagreed with Obama’s approach, which was to focus on Russia, not on the Islamic terrorism.

In Flynn’s book, “The Field of Fight: How We Can Win the Global War Against Radical Islam and its Allies,” he condemned U.S. leaders who have called Islam a religion of peace. “This insistence on denying the existence of jihad led President Obama to the absurd claim that the Islamic State has nothing to do with Islam,” Flynn wrote.

In August, he called Islam a “cancer,” which is in line with Trump, who said in a CNN interview last March that “Islam hates us.”

In advising Trump’s campaign, Flynn has emphasized that the Islamic State poses an existential threat on a global scale. He shares Trump’s belief that Washington should work more closely with Moscow.

Flynn traveled last year to Moscow, where he joined Russian President Vladimir Putin and other Russian officials. His warmth toward Russia worries left-wing and neocon experts.

Trump’s warmth toward Russia also worries them. During his campaign, Trump was accused by neocons of being a “Russian agent.” The Trevor Loudon blog said,

“If Trump is elected, you will have the Russians… in the White House. Trump’s advisers are very connected to Vladimir Putin and Russia. Trump himself has many ties as well and is friends with Putin.”

Trump’s choices are definitely shifting U.S. policy to right. But while left-wingers are worried about Trump’s pro-life choices and both Republican and Democratic neocons are worried about Trump making Russia a partner against Islamic terrorism, conservative Christians are worried about his soft treatment of the gay ideology, especially his appointment of homosexualists, including Peter Thiel.

Trump’s two appointments — Sessions and Flynn — are a blow to two powerful industries in the United States: the abortion industry and the main neocon industry, the military-industrial complex. If Trump wants to be successful, he should not let the gay agenda industry untouched.

It Is Official: White Evangelicals Gave Victory to Trump

What Is Neoconservatism (Neocon)?

Trump Defeats Pro-Abortion Warmongering Hillary and Is the New President of the United States

By Julio Severo

Trump has won, not only an election. He has defeated Hillary Clinton, one of the most powerful abortion advocates in the world. He has defeated powerful media outlets and pundits, who clearly wanted him to lose. He has defeated several establishments, especially neocons, who have controlled both the Republican Party and the Democratic Party. Now he is officially U.S. President Donald Trump.

WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange saidthat Trump “had every establishment off his side. Trump does not have one establishment, maybe with the exception of the Evangelicals, if you can call them an establishment. Banks, intelligence, arms companies, foreign money, etc. are all united behind Hillary Clinton. And the media as well. Media owners, and the journalists themselves.”

According to Assange, evangelicals were the only “establishment” supporting Trump. I am an evangelical. I am not an American, but what do I expect from Trump, especially from his foreign policy?

Hillary created ISIS, which has been torturing, raping and slaughtering Christians in the Middle East. Besides, she was at war with Christian values, with the pro-life and pro-family movement and with Russia, which is more conservative today.

She would keep dialogue just with pro-abortion, Islamic and homosexual activists. How do I know? Obama always kept this kind of unilateral dialogue and used the U.S. government as a bestial machine to spread and impose abortion and the homosexual agenda around the world. Hillary would certainly do the same.

With Trump, we expect better.

We expect him to stop the U.S. government from being used as a machine to spread and impose abortion and the homosexual agenda around the world.

We expect Trump to be able to fulfil his promises and continue his confrontation with neocons, who have Christian blood on their hands through their warmongering meddling in Iraq, Libya, Syria and Ukraine. Neocons should be stopped.

In his campaign, Trump kept close contacts with evangelicals and with the pro-life and pro-family movement. In his presidency, we expect him to increase these channels of communication.

In his campaign, Trump confronted neocons over Iraq, Libya, Syria and Ukraine. In his presidency, we expect him to reinforce this necessary confrontation.

In his campaign, Trump stood against Hillary and neocons demonizing Russia and praising Islam. In his presidency, we expect him to fulfill his promises about partnership with Russia and pass measures banning the flood of Islamic immigration to the U.S. We also expect him to fulfil his promise of giving preference to oppressed Christian refugees, who are the main victims of Islamic violence.

Trump’s idea of partnership with Russia against Islamic terror was the most politically incorrect proposal in the modern U.S. history, because neocons’ and Hillary’s intent was exactly opposite: a partnership with Islamic terror against Russia.

May the evangelical “establishment,” which stood with Trump for his electoral victory, keep standing with him for victories against neocons and their warmongering expansionism that spills Christian blood around the world.
