This is a repost of a dream from 2017. It also features the visions of Romanian preacher, Dumitru Duduman, who envisioned a successful, pre- emeptive strike on the USA. We are now at the beginning of this reality.

BY GRADY MEANS, OPINION CONTRIBUTOR
December has arrived and it’s time to forecast 2022. I’ll start the ball rolling by framing the most gloomy scenario: 2022 could mark the end of the world, via global war and nuclear exchanges.
Most Americans will find that forecast surprising and offensive. We tend to be optimistic Bayesians: If the sun rose today, certainly it will rise the same way tomorrow. But unfortunately, there are “Black Swan” events — unexpected shocks to the system that totally change the future.
And today we confront two Black Swans — Vladimir Putin and Xi Jinping. Both are brilliant, experienced leaders. Putin has written extensively on his vision for Russia — for example, his Millennium Papers and his “PhD” dissertation on energy economics. Xi is similar. Both have consolidated power within brutal systems. Both are committed nationalists who see themselves as major historical figures. Both are men of action, willing to take large, calculated risks. And both likely understand that 2022 is the year they must act.
Putin is dedicated to the defense and rise of Russia. He seeks strategic territorial expansion, the destruction of NATO, and eventual political hegemony over Europe. The coming year could be the key stepping stone for his dreams. A first step would be invading Ukraine, giving Russia an economic boost and consolidating Black Sea strategic access. Russian troops are already massing on the border.
Xi envisions political hegemony over East Asia (and beyond). The next step would be the invasion and conquest of Taiwan, where he is upping military pressure. At the same time, Iran and its leaders dream of destroying Israel and gaining Middle East hegemony.
All of them recently have engaged in joint war games and all may be coming to believe that 2022 is their once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. The reason: President Biden.
New U.S. presidential administrations are always tested by global adversaries in the first year. The Biden administration failed miserably with the Chinese in Anchorage, with the Russians in Geneva, with Hamas after bribing them to cease their rocket attacks on Israel, with the world in Glasgow, and with Xi Jinping on a recent video-call.
The U.S. military displayed an astounding lack of leadership and judgment in the withdrawal from Afghanistan. Everyone has seen Secretary of State Antony Blinken, Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin, Gen. Mark Milley, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and national security adviser Jake Sullivan in action.
Biden has destroyed American energy independence and endangered national security by making America dependent on foreign oil. He has failed miserably to deal with COVID and has been afraid to aggressively pursue the political dynamite of its origin, or whether it or its variants were released intentionally. The American media have ignored or excused these failures.
U.S. defense, intelligence and justice systems have been politicized. Congressional Intelligence and Armed Services committees have been corrupted, manufacturing now-exposed fictions such as the Trump-Russia hoax. Politics has been polarized by woke-ism, racial tension, climate change and Donald Trump.
America is at its weakest politically in decades. Our enemies have seen all they need to see. They will act before the American political equation changes next November. Winter is coming and that often is the time to attack.
Americans are always shocked when our enemies act. But Russia’s Putin and China’s Xi know that, to become true historical figures, they must act when the time is right. The problem for America is that our enemies may well act together.
Russia may launch an attack and invasion of Ukraine simultaneous with a coup attempt. To keep NATO off balance, Russia would reduce winter gas and oil shipments to Europe, which gets 30 percent of its oil and 40 percent of its gas from Russia. The U.S. cannot help Europe through emergency liquified natural gas or oil shipments, thanks to Biden.
China could simultaneously launch an invasion of Taiwan. Iran, through its Hezbollah and Hamas proxies, could launch an all-out assault on Israel and slow oil flowing through the Straits of Hormuz. Saudi Arabia could reduce or fully cut oil supplies to the U.S. and Europe — the Saudis made it clear during the start of the COVID pandemic, and more recently during America’s oil price spike, that they are not a true ally.
When the dust clears, Russia would control Ukraine, China would control Taiwan, Israel would be weakened, NATO would be staggered, and America’s military and world leadership status would be permanently diminished.
Except for the wild cards.
First among the wild cards is Biden. After globally advertising their advanced nuclear strategic delivery capability over the past year, our enemies may miscalculate that Biden would hesitate to respond. But, caught off guard and strategically weakened, Biden and his defense team might overreact to “prove” themselves. That would involve some direct action against China or Russia, or both. That is potentially a straight line to nuclear exchange.
From the Cold War to a hard freeze
Sunday shows preview: Officials, experts respond to omicron; Biden…
North Korea might decide, with America distracted, to launch a conventional, chemical or nuclear attack on South Korea. Israel, under an existential threat, might launch an all-out attack on Iran. Pakistan and India might decide that a distracted world is the time to settle their differences. An attack on Taiwan might bring in Japan. Boom.
The one thing that could stand in the way of these catastrophes is a brilliant, strong, capable and decisive White House — which, in 2022, will not be the case. Holiday greetings: DEFCON 2.

William Barnham was a charasmatic revival preacher who predicted the events of the Second World War and the conditions of the end times when he had a vision in 1933. The following are excerpts from Prophecies of the End Time by Pietro D’Aloisio. (SOURCE: http://www.branham.it/joomla/documenti/lingue/prophecies.html )
And remember, this is… America will… A–a woman… I–I better leave it alone. But just remember this. I predict that a woman will be president before we’re annihilated. That’s right. I said that in 1933 by a vision. ( GOD’S COVENANT WITH ABRAHAM – Charlotte NC 56-0428)
Then I said, “I seen a woman stand in the United States like a great queen or something. And she was beautiful to look at, but wicked in her heart. And she made the nation step–go to her step”. (BROKEN CISTERNS – Jeffersonville IN 64-0726E)
And I seen a woman lying, vulgar as she was, and dominated the country. And I predict that a woman will either be President, or do, or come into great power of some sort in the United States before the total annihilation of the world. Keep that in mind, and I have said it. (GOD KEEPS HIS WORD – Jeffersonville IN 57-0120E)
2. Cars will be designed to have an egg shape.
And I said it in ’33 when I saw the coming of the Lord. And how the automobiles would continually shape up like an egg, until finally they would come into a perfect egg shape. (GOD KEEPS HIS WORD – Jeffersonville IN 57-0120E)
3. Cars will be able to be driverless.
Just the two things left, and one of those great prophecies; that is, for cars to be on the road with remote control, looking like a egg, only you don’t drive it; it controls itself. And then, there’ll be a great woman rise up, ’cause America is a woman’s nation. And it’ll… A great woman will rise up and be president, or something like that in the nation, and then there will come a total annihilation, the entire nation will be wiped out. (BY FAITH, MOSES – Jeffersonville IN 58-0720M)
4. Perversity and communism (socialism) will reign.
Now, look. Sodom was sinners. They were perverted, just like the world is today. Great portions of this nation is completely gone. And as I said, “We’re just being honeycombed with communism and everything”. Every ism, it’s… Many of you, if you’d put a righteous President in every county in the whole United States, it’s still gone. She’ll never rise again, THUS SAITH THE LORD. 1956 she made her fatal move. Now, and she took well on her way about three months ago.Now, she’s gone. Write it in your Bible; see if it’s right. (FAITHFUL ABRAHAM – Richmond VA 61-0312)
That’s awful, but that’s the American. Canada, you precious people from Canada, if America keeps going on, Canada will be as lowdown as America after while. Get around the borders of Canada anywhere, and you got that American atmosphere. This America is the prostitute of the nations. That’s exactly what she is, and she’s going to be worse than ever now. She’s coming to her end. The Bible speaks of her doom, tells how she’s going to be: America: lowdown, rotten, filthy, no good. That’s exactly right. She’s been a great nation. She’s carried the Gospel message. What makes her the way she is? Because she’s turned down the Gospel message and rejected the truth. She’s horrible. She’s got it coming; don’t worry. I seen it in the vision as THUS SAITH THE LORD. It’s coming. She’s going to pay for her sins. (REVELATION CHAPTER FOUR #3(THRONE OF MERCY AND JUDGEMENT) – Jeffersonville IN 61-0108)
I said, “There’s three isms has rose up: Nazism, fascism, and communism”. I said, “Them isms will revolve and come around into one; it’ll he communism. Watch. Communism will burn Rome”. See? You watch it. Uh-huh. It’s a tool in God’s hands. They think they’re against God; they’re working right into it all the time, don’t know it. He’s just using them as a puppet, some tool in His hand like He did Nebuchadnezzar and many of the others. (THE ABSOLUTE – Jeffersonville IN 62-1230M)
5. Speaking in tongues is not a sign of revival.
Then there is all this talk about the glossalalia–it is supposed to be the evidence of the Baptism of the Holy Ghost, and people are thinking that we are in the midst of a great revival. The revival is over. America had her last chance in 1957. Now the tongues are God’s sign of impending disaster, even as they were when they appeared upon the wall at Belshazzar’s feast (AN EXPOSITION OF THE SEVEN CHURCH AGES – Laodicean Ages)
6. Nuclear destruction.
So I didn’t know then that they had something that could annihilate it, like they got now, but I seen the nation in total annihilation–just stumps of trees and things like that left. So it’s on it’s road.
(BY FAITH, MOSES – Jeffersonville IN 58-0720M)
Now, another thing it said, that… Then immediately after that, I saw this nation become as a smelter, just blowed to bits. Now, if them things has happened, so will this other. (THE EPHESIAN CHURCH AGE – Jeffersonville IN 60-1205)
I said, “Then I looked again, and I saw the United States just blowed to pieces. There wasn’t nothing left on it”.228. And I predicted then. “Now, this, that was THUS SAITH THE LORD”.231. And I said, “I seen, looked like just stumps a-burning, rocks blowed out, and the whole United States just looked bare, laying like that, as far as I could see where I was standing”. (THE THYATIREAN CHURCH AGE – Jeffersonville IN 60-1208)
