Oil Rebounds As Iran Nuclear Deal Talks Hit A Snag
Zero Hedge: Oil prices rebounded from last week’s Iran deal optimism-inspired rout, as a new potential “snag” emerged in reviving the 2015 Iran nuclear deal that could add more oil supply, even as Goldman Sachs said last night that the case for higher prices remains intact even with increased Iran exports.
Oil prices rebounded from last week’s Iran deal optimism-inspired rout, as a new potential “snag” emerged in reviving the 2015 Iran nuclear deal that could add more oil supply, even as Goldman Sachs said last night that the case for higher prices remains intact even with increased Iran exports.
Oil prices fell almost 3% last week after Iran’s president, Hassan Rouhani, said the United States was ready to lift sanctions on his country’s oil, banking and shipping sectors. However, as we reported over the weekend, the speaker of Iran’s parliament said on Sunday a three-month monitoring deal between Iran and the U.N. nuclear watchdog had expired and that the country would block inspectors from accessing nuclear site images.
However, offsetting some of the tension, on Monday morning – and as expected – a one-month extension to the monitoring agreement has been announced.
And yet, the mood soured further after Secretary of State Blinken said that there was no sign yet that Iran is willing to comply with nuclear commitments needed to lift sanctions, when asked if a decision was made to lift sanctions on Iran. Read More
60 Minutes Runs Explosive Segment Featuring Young Transgender Individuals Who Decided To Reverse Course
Zero Hedge: On Sunday, CBS News’ “60 Minutes” ran a segment about transgender issues facing today’s young people in America, which featured, in part, transgender individuals who decided to reverse course after taking hormones and undergoing surgery.
The segment featured how transgender activists have pushed back on legislation across the U.S. that aims to protect children from undergoing potentially life-altering medical procedures before they are old enough to understand the ramifications of their decisions. One of the transgender advocates said the fact that so many transgender individuals had decided to de-transition was proof that more resources were needed for trans individuals, not fewer.

“The Fed Has Lost Control” – John Williams Warns Of Hyperinflation In 2022
Zero Hedge: Economist John Williams, founder of ShadowStats.com, says the Federal Reserve has painted itself into such a tight corner with the economy it really has only two choices. Williams says it comes down to “Inflation or Implosion.”
“ And I heard a voice in the midst of the four living creatures saying, “A [b]quart of wheat for a [c]denarius, and three quarts of barley for a denarius; and do not harm the oil and the wine.”” Revelation 6:6
What would happen to the financial system if the Fed stopped printing massive amounts of money for stimulus and debt service? Williams explains,
“You could see financial implosion by preventing liquidity being put into the system. The system needs liquidity (freshly created dollars) to function. Without that liquidity, you would see more of an economic implosion than you have already seen. In fact, I will contend that the headline pandemic numbers have actually been a lot worse than they have been reporting. It also means we are not recovering quite as quickly. The Fed needs to keep the banking system afloat. They want to keep the economy afloat. All that requires a tremendous influx of liquidity in these difficult times.”
So, is the choice inflation or implosion? Williams says, “That’s the choice, and I think we are going to have a combination of both of them...”
“ I think we are eventually headed into a hyperinflationary economic collapse.

An Antisemitic Hate Wave Grows in Los Angeles
In 2019, hate crimes in LA County against black people fell 13%, hate crimes against gays fell 22%, and hate crimes against Mexicans fell 9%, while hate crimes against Jews rose 18%.
89% of anti-religious hate crimes targeted Jews, only 7% affected Muslims.
“Then they will deliver you up to tribulation and kill you, and you will be hated by all nations for My name’s sake” Matthew 24:9
If you listened to the media, you would get the opposite impression with coverage that ignored antisemitism to focus on racism, homophobia and Islamophobia. A typical example of what they were ignoring was a Jewish Community Center getting a message “from a man with a Middle Eastern accent that said, ‘I will kill every single Jew.”
Instead, California Democrats moved to impose the ethnic studies curriculum which would embed the teaching of BDS and antisemitic tropes into the educational system. Read More
Bernie Sanders Claims ‘The Israeli Government’ Contains ‘Overt Racists’
Daily Wire: On Sunday, Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT), who has a long history of antagonism toward Israel, claimed on “Face The Nation” that the United States should “develop an even-handed approach to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. He insisted at that “over the years the [Benjamin] Netanyahu government has become extremely right-wing and that there are people in the Israeli government now who are overt racists.”
“Because the Lord has sworn: the Lord will have war with Amalek from generation to generation.” Exodus 17:16
If Sanders was referring in that “eviction” comment to Sheikh Jarrah, not only did he get his geography wrong, as it lies in East Jerusalem, but the often claimed notion that Palestinians have been unfairly evicted from their homes there does not take into account the complete
Sanders also snapped that the United States has been “simply supplying weapons to kill children in Gaza,” and “Our job is not simply to put more and more military support for Israel,” and claimed “in West Jerusalem people are being evicted from their homes.”

Arab Riot Erupts at Jerusalem’s Temple Mount
Jewish Press: Israel may have ended its Operation Guardian of the Walls against Hamas in Gaza, but the terror group’s reach remains long and vicious.
Immediately following the noon prayer on Friday at the Al Aqsa Mosque on Jerusalem’s Temple Mount, young Arabs began rioting, hurling rocks and throwing at least one Molotov cocktail (firebomb) at Jerusalem police, police said.
“… They shall be called the Territory of Wickedness, And the people against whom the Lord will have indignation forever.” Malachi 1:4
It is believed the violence came in response to calls by the Hamas terrorist organization for a “Day of Rage” in Jerusalem.
Rioters were cursing, spitting and throwing things at police officers who exercised restraint in their response, according to one local source.
The police commander of the Jerusalem district ordered supplementary forces to enter the Temple Mount and quell the rioters who were near the local police station.
Texas governor signs law: sue abortionists for killing babies with heartbeats
LifeSite News: Texas Gov. Greg Abbott signed a law Wednesday attempting to ban the abortion of babies with detectable heartbeats through an unusual enforcement mechanism supporters hope will get around the legal obstacles pro-life laws normally face.
“Behold, children are a heritage from the Lord, the fruit of the womb a reward.” Psalm 127:3 ESV
House Bill 1515, titled the Texas Heartbeat Act, requires abortionists to screen for a preborn baby’s heartbeat and prohibits abortion if a heartbeat can be heard (generally as early as six months), with exceptions only for medical emergencies.
Notably, however, the state would not be prosecuting violators of the new law, which actually forbids any enforcement action “by this state, a political subdivision, a district or county attorney, or an executive or administrative officer or employee of this state or a political subdivision.”
Instead, it “exclusively” empowers private citizens to bring civil suits against the abortionists, punishable by a minimum of $10,000 in statutory relief per abortion plus whatever additional injunctive relief is deemed “sufficient to prevent the defendant from violating this chapter or engaging in acts that aid or abet violations of this chapter.” Read More
White House makes $1.7 trillion infrastructure counteroffer — but Republicans say sides now seem further apart
CNBC: White House aides working on a bipartisan infrastructure deal made a counteroffer on Friday to Republican senators, reducing the Biden administration’s initial proposal by $600 billion.
“They shall cast their silver in the streets, and their gold shall be removed: their silver and their gold shall not be able to deliver them in the day of the wrath of the LORD.” Ezekiel 7:19 KJV
Within hours, those Republicans threw cold water on the new proposal and said the sides now seemed “further apart” after what had appeared to be progress in negotiations.
The latest offer would cost $1.7 trillion over a decade, according to a memo from the White House to Republican Sen. Shelley Moore Capito, of West Virginia, who is spearheading negotiations for the GOP. Read More

‘We Need Accountability’: Omar And Tlaib Say Ceasefire Isn’t Enough, Accuse Israel Of ‘War Crimes’
Daily Wire: Early on Friday morning, an unconditional ceasefire was reached between the Israeli government and Hamas terrorists after days of violence in the region.
“For violence against your brother Jacob,
Shame shall cover you,
And you shall be cut off forever.” Obadiah 1:10
As Reuters reported, “Israel and Hamas will cease fire across the Gaza Strip border as of Friday, the Palestinian Islamist faction and Egyptian state TV.” The Associated Press reported, “Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s office said Israel accepted the Egyptian proposal after a late-night meeting of his Security Cabinet. Hamas quickly followed suit and said it would honor the deal.”
The ceasefire wasn’t enough for outspoken pro-Palestinian activist, Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN), however, who implied that Israel was guilty of crimes against humanity, and that the U.S. is failing to “end the occupation.”
“We should all be grateful that a ceasefire will prevent more civilians and children from being killed,” Omar tweeted. “But now what? Read More
