A number of American soldiers actively serving in Israel and other bases in the Middle East have been injured or purportedly been killed in the line of duty, after recent drone strikes were launched against U.S. forces in Syria and Iraq, and allegedly the death of some soldiers during a failed mission.
Earlier this week it was reported that U.S. bases in Syria and Iraq, with reports that there will minimal injuries to one and the other was fine.
Escalation: Iran Blamed For Drone Strikes Against Several US Bases In Syria
But now some of the details have reportedly been detained by NBC in an exclusive report, with U.S. Central Command confirming that 24 soldiers were injured.
NBC wrote:
Twenty American personnel sustained minor injuries on Oct. 18 when at least two one-way attack drones targeted al-Tanf military base in southern Syria, CENTCOM said.
One of the drones was shot down. All of the wounded personnel were returned to duty, CENTCOM said, and there was no damage to any military installations.
On that same day, another four American personnel suffered minor injuries during two separate drone attacks against U.S. and coalition forces stationed at al-Asad base in western Iraq, CENTCOM said.
But there is speculation that some U.S. soldiers have already been killed and the Department of Defense (DoD) is unwilling to disclose that information.
Retired Colonel Douglas MacGregor sat down for a recent interview with Tucker Carlson, where he revealed that according to what he’s been told from his contacts in Israel, a number of U.S. Special Operations troops were killed in a failed raid.
MacGregor told Carlson:
We don’t have the means to rapidly ship a large force of 80 to 100,000 troops on the ground into the region, which means that we’re reliant on special forces and right now 2000 marines and perhaps 2000 special forces and special operations forces. That’s not going to make much of a dent.
And as we’ve seen quite recently, within the last 24 hours or so, some of our Special Ops forces and Israeli Special Ops forces went into Gaza to reconnoiter to plan for where they might want to go to free hostages and make an impact. And they were shot to pieces and took heavy losses as I understand it.
I think that’s where we’re headed and I don’t see that as a win for Israel in any way, shape or form.
He went on to emphatically warn that the United States is headed towards complete collapse, and heading into yet another war that the country will not only win, but suffer a great deal of casualties and expense to fight it; and highlighting how the U.S. is facing some catastrophic economics problems through a collapsing bond market and treasury yields – something The WinePress has warned would be a devasting problem coming in the future, a future that appears to be happening now.

AUTHOR COMMENTARY
I have no idea if we sent those troops into their deaths or not, but it would not surprise me in the slightest if we did and the Pentagon is covering that up. Hopefully this revelation can come out to more light soon so we can get perhaps some inkling of truth.
At any rate, assuming this war expands, and all signs would seem to indicate that it will, the loss of life this will create will be massive for all sides involved, none more so than the U.S. and Israel. Again, as I have said before, do not be shocked in the slightest if Israel sees a colossal number of deaths soon and within the next couple of years.
A sword is upon the liars; and they shall dote: a sword is upon her mighty men; and they shall be dismayed.
Jeremiah 50:36
[7] Who goeth a warfare any time at his own charges? who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? or who feedeth a flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock? [8] Say I these things as a man? or saith not the law the same also? [9] For it is written in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen? [10] Or saith he it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope. (1 Corinthians 9:7-10).

World War III is becoming inevitable.
Israel is being judged as well if I’m not mistaken and America is going to be encased in war.
I forgot who said this quote and I don’t quite remember it verbatim but it was spot on:
War is God’s judgement on sin in this life and Hell is God’s judgement on life hereafter.
Jacob, I was so compelled to send you an email. Hopefully if you have time, you’ll check it out.
Jeremiah 51:19-20
“The Portion of Jacob is not like them, for He is the maker of all things; And Israel is the tribe of His inheritance. The LORD of hosts is His name. You are My battle-ax and weapons of war: for with you I will break the nation in pieces; with you I will destroy kingdoms.”
umm Lee what bible are you using because it does not line up with the true and only word of God the KJV Bible?

When the economy crashes; war is next on the list. History always repeats it self
Ecc_1:9 The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun.
When some of the highly productive, responsible and reliable citizens are suddenly snatched away, America will fall into total disarray. It will be the last nail in the coffin for a once great nation.
I’ve begun reading Jeremiah lately & as these things escalate. The Lord knows what he is doing, and those tempted to pride, self-righteousness & blame-shifting (especially amongst the young, inexperienced & immature having need of humility & much time in the word & proving, studying to shew themselves approved, gaining understanding & wisdom there, cautious with the world’s deceitful propaganda)……need beware as judgment comes, that they not be found on the side of the Accuser rather than the Savior. Antichrist deception has many facets & is subtil.
–
The Lord is turning back to Israel, even in her dead & dry bone state. The spirit of antichrist through his godman popes & deceived little god craft work to have that temple & Babylon built for them to reign, pretending & usurping in their vain, but cunning & bloody idolatrous deceived imaginations. The Branch will have his glorious temple & reign….but that usurping bramble, & degenerate vine of the antichrist idolators will have his counterfeit, too….and the so-called Temple Mount Faithful & Rome & all craft stand ready to build the set for those final acts of the presuming & self-deceived.
–
Those believers of America need to realize how America & her people were wooed, seduced & distracted with the Romish wolf’s typical endarkening Inquisitional & diabolical dumbing down & demoralization, even to the perversions & drawing souls away from the true word of God & source of salvation power, cleansing, guidance, light, strength, etc…..to fakes & counterfeits that can hardly, if at all, save with what little noncorrupted lowest common denominator pieces of truth remain in them, let alone nourish strong souls for the fight.
–
It is a time to return to the word & the Lord revealed there, & to point anyone who will listen there.
–
America was used to their ends & is now to suffer the blameshifting scapegoating slander & ‘collateral damage’ excuse-making while any Naboth’s remaining, & their capital, are purposely targeted for the Jezebel co-opt & take down game…..the seductions of treacherous Absalom at the gate…..while nicolaitan hirelings & cronies, along with many assorted sons& daughters of Belial are held up as ‘Christian heroes’, ‘last generation Joel’s children’, ‘prophets(profits)’ making promises to the covetous, devil-possessed ‘casting out devils’…. and such things. Nothing new under the sun….just waxing worse and worse, and more and more subtil.
–
Consider the ‘many called, few chosen’ warning of Jesus….how few the Daniel, and faithful Hebrew children were…..yet the promises & provisions through the trials were there for them, different then than in our age & yet with application for us today, & the lying signs of their fake antichrist revival are real, but will be put down by the greater power of God even as the serpent rods of Moses & Aaron swallowed up those of the Egyptian magicians working by their serpent power & knowledge enchantments…in his time.
–
The fulness of the sin of the Gentile nations approaches even as their power seems to increase & their bravado & wickedness & presumption knows no end. And God will work through the Jews yet again, but even, and as he does with chastening & judgment….we are not immune. Romans 11 KJB.
–
I was struck by the parallels. So few heed the true prophet, the word of God, the King James Bible & attending quickening Holy Spirit… Jeremiah 3:14 Turn, O backsliding children, saith the LORD; for I am married unto you: and I will take you one of a city, and two of a family, and I will bring you to Zion:
–
They love another spirit. An impure, seducing one having many smooth words.
–
He speaks further in Jeremiah 3 of how the open shame of Israel: her rebellion, fornications & idolatries was not worse than the feigned religiosity of Judah & her treachery. There’s a message in that going forward. So much for pragmatism. So much for peace, peace…..and the ‘Fifth Generation Warfare’ craft of the self-righteous & idolatrous humanist wizards pretending to Bible faith while not even believing such a thing exists & making it up as they go along.
–
‘Only the originals’ my foot. CALL THEM ON IT. Publicly.
–
Those preening & accusing so often not having not the righteousness of Christ, but only self-righteousness, & given to persecuting. Even the saved often confused & drawn in by those things & shows of righteousness, as the builders & Rome have been busily, cunningly & craftily setting morality in the place of godliness, teaching & promoting social justice etc….preaching unity while working division, teaching that men have innate divinity puffing pride & seducing during a real & growing (and yes, consequential & unnecessary) famine of the word: even as Judah & Israel when Christ came the first time…. He still had compassion on the sheep who were as those without a shepherd, & with so many false ones.
–
Today the lack of spiritual nutrition & outright poison of the pushed perver$ion$ are all that many know…., even as the junkfood & worse that is being endlessly promoted, set before people in order to enrich a nicolaitan, ‘superior’ few & to weaken & destroy the many while squeezing out a few more shekels or denarii. The sheep are unruly & tending to go astray as always, but the false shepherds must be taken into account, too…..and the Lord is merciful. It’s easy to forget what & where we were when the Lord condescended to save us.
–
It is a time for repentance, & much preaching pointing the people back to the word & only true salvation…..a time of shaking & sifting, and actual opportunity as the false shows itself cruel & false, dark… and the light shines brighter, God’s merciful & faithful salvation including chastening & judgment sorting souls by their own conscientious choices regarding truth & conviction. Do we know, and are we sure, what spirit we are of?
–
Many are about to find out: and not just in America…but during the collapse & fall, & afterwards also in Europe & all the nations as the proclamation goes out that ‘antichrist’ America has been taken down, & now the new false savior antichrists (that aren’t new, but the same old, same old) march forward in vainglorious, self-righteous triumph: united in lies & deceit, working their lying signs & wonders drawing & deceiving more & ever more …. until the deceived Jews are shaken, given sight & turn to fight with the Lord.
–
Read Jeremiah for these days so like his & many looking vainly to Assyria and Egypt, to alliances with the wicked & fighting by their means. But read, too, those final chapters of Isaiah and Ezekiel. The minor prophets and Zechariah, with those final general epistles of the New Testament & the Revelation of the Lord Jesus Christ.
–
How amazing is God’s word? Mature & proven Bible believing men (yet but men…the authority the word) have pointed out that Jeremiah divides naturally at chapter 39, as do Isaiah & Ezekiel.
–
Isaiah is the easiest of those books in which to see the correlation: it having 66 chapters as the King James Bible fulfillment of Psalm 12 for the latter days.
–
Ezekiel has 260 verses in its remaining 9 chapters corelating to the 260 chapters of the New Testament.
–
In Jeremiah there is a gap of confusion in the five chapters following chapter 39 (five being reminiscent of the Gospels & Acts transition…also calling to mind the gap between Daniel’s 69th & 70th week, and the gap we live in with the setting aside of the Jews for a time as they wander through the nations, & before they finally return to the Land & reconcile with the New Testament& the Lord in truth to be restored to their former position: but better as everything the Lord does).
–
And then come 9 chapters of 260 verses corelating to the 260 chapters of the New Testament & Israel in those times, today & future. Don’t take their, or my, or anyone else’s but the Lord’s word for it. The word he gave & preserves, quickens and sorts terribly by. Go to the word. Check it out for yourselves.

Jeremiah 3:12-25 KJB ¶ Go and proclaim these words toward the north, and say, Return, thou backsliding Israel, saith the LORD; and I will not cause mine anger to fall upon you: for I am merciful, saith the LORD, and I will not keep anger for ever. :13 Only acknowledge thine iniquity, that thou hast transgressed against the LORD thy God, and hast scattered thy ways to the strangers under every green tree, and ye have not obeyed my voice, saith the LORD. :14 Turn, O backsliding children, saith the LORD; for I am married unto you: and I will take you one of a city, and two of a family, and I will bring you to Zion: :15 And I will give you pastors according to mine heart, which shall feed you with knowledge and understanding. :16 And it shall come to pass, when ye be multiplied and increased in the land, in those days, saith the LORD, they shall say no more, The ark of the covenant of the LORD: neither shall it come to mind: neither shall they remember it; neither shall they visit it; neither shall that be done any more. :17 At that time they shall call Jerusalem the throne of the LORD; and all the nations shall be gathered unto it, to the name of the LORD, to Jerusalem: neither shall they walk any more after the imagination of their evil heart. :18 In those days the house of Judah shall walk with the house of Israel, and they shall come together out of the land of the north to the land that I have given for an inheritance unto your fathers. :19 But I said, How shall I put thee among the children, and give thee a pleasant land, a goodly heritage of the hosts of nations? and I said, Thou shalt call me, My father; and shalt not turn away from me.

Jeremiah 3:20 ¶ Surely as a wife treacherously departeth from her husband, so have ye dealt treacherously with me, O house of Israel, saith the LORD. :21 A voice was heard upon the high places, weeping and supplications of the children of Israel: for they have perverted their way, and they have forgotten the LORD their God. :22 Return, ye backsliding children, and I will heal your backslidings. Behold, we come unto thee; for thou art the LORD our God. :23 Truly in vain is salvation hoped for from the hills, and from the multitude of mountains: truly in the LORD our God is the salvation of Israel. :24 For shame hath devoured the labour of our fathers from our youth; their flocks and their herds, their sons and their daughters. :25 We lie down in our shame, and our confusion covereth us: for we have sinned against the LORD our God, we and our fathers, from our youth even unto this day, and have not obeyed the voice of the LORD our God.
–
As this dispensation comes to its end in failure, as they all do apart from the Lord’s perfection & holiness….we Gentiles would do well to consider those verses of Jeremiah 3:12-25 KJB. The solution to the confusion found beginning appropriately at verse 22.
–
There is no Book on this earth like the King James Bible which goes beyond even the incredible content to the very numbering & division of books, chapters and verses….even words…. to show the way to those not turned from truth & seeking it, God being faithful to call if men will but heed & follow to the word, & then actually read & believe, obey it as God quickens, ‘hastens and chastens his will to make known’ as the old hymn puts it.
–
To shine the light, to bolster faith, to strengthen those weak knees & to lift up the hands that hang down (remember Aaron & Hur of Exodus 17?…that’s 17! lol! and see Revelation 17-19 with Amalek back, yet to be put down, the war still on…) ….to encourage us in these days of confusion & wickedness with such temptations to doubt, to grow weary of the good works we are called to (and those works, of course, distinct from the ‘social justice’, any-Bible, idolatrous humanist, flesh-coddling antichrist ways), to fear and to despair….to see & do things the way the world and its spirit do.
–
He is faithful. The Comforter is with us if we but open those pages & really read & study, trust and obey ….even now. And even in America, or anywhere else.
