 Revelation 13 says those who refuse to worship the image of the Beast will be identified and punished. For centuries, readers could understand the prophecy while wondering how such surveillance could ever work globally. Emerging 6G, AI and through-wall sensing technologies are making that kind of behavioral detection increasingly conceivable.

Because Leftist Reprobates Take Over America? The eastern world, it is exploding
Violence flarin’, bullets loadin’ You’re old enough to kill but not for votin’
You don’t believe in war, but what’s that gun you’re totin’? And even the Jordan River has bodies floatin’
Eve of Destruction, 1965
People of a certain age, boomers mostly, will remember this 1965 tune sung by a gravel-voiced Barry McGuire. It got lots of airplay back in the day. It was dark, catchy; DJs loved it. Maybe some believed the central message; most didn’t, not really. For most, it was just another song on the radio, mixed in with Beatles, Stones, Doors, Janis, Jimi, et al.
Israeli security forces have seized and closed a training college run by the UN agency for Palestinian refugees (Unrwa), the last of its facilities that was still operating in occupied East Jerusalem.
UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres has condemned the incursion of the Qalandia Training Centre, the latest move to threaten Unrwa after Israel passed laws against it.
His spokesman, Stephane Dujarric, said that under international law, all UN premises "are inviolable and immune from any form of interference."
Israel's far-right National Security Minister, Itamar Ben-Gvir, joined the large raid on Tuesday and released a video of himself in the chair of the director of the Unrwa institute.
The office of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said he had given the directive for the evacuation of the Unrwa compound, accusing the agency of involvement in the deadly Hamas-led attack on southern Israel on 7 October 2023, which it strongly denies.
The Qalandia Training Centre, which was set up in 1952, trained some 340 Palestinians a year in valuable vocational skills including carpentry, car mechanics and plumbing.

A far-right member of the Israeli parliament has badly damaged a Palestinian memorial with a sledgehammer in the occupied West Bank while under military escort.
The incident has drawn strong criticism from Palestinians and across the political spectrum in Israel.
Video footage showed Zvi Sukkot, a member of the far-right Religious Zionism party, and several others striking the stone memorial in the Palestinian village of Madama.
In the video, Sukkot - who has a history of provocative anti-Palestinian acts - says: "This is something we cannot leave standing here, because any place that glorifies terrorism, we must remove it."
Rami Nasar, the head of the village council in Madama, said that the monument was erected in 2008 to remember Palestinians killed in the battle of Karameh - a day-long military confrontation between Israeli forces and those of both the PLO and Jordan in 1968.
It also memorialises Palestinians killed in the first and second intifada.
Nasar said it was intended to honour those who had been killed in conflict with Israel, whatever their political affiliation.
The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said its soldiers had been present during the incident. The Israeli military said it had approved a tour of monuments in the area for Sukkot and was providing security.
But the IDF said he and the others involved had acted deceptively and without authorisation.

 On August 26, 1071, one of the most decisive battles in all world history took place—that of Manzikert. It paved the way for the First Crusade, the subsequent Ottoman invasions of Europe, and creation of the modern state of Turkey atop formerly Christian Asia Minor. It all began half a century earlier, in 1019, when “the first appearance of the bloodthirsty beasts … the savage nation of infidels called Turks entered Armenia … and mercilessly slaughtered the Christian faithful with the sword,” writes the chronicler, Mathew of Edessa. In the ensuing years and decades, virtually the whole of Armenia was decimated: hundreds of thousands were slaughtered or enslaved, and thousands of churches torched or desecrated, including by being turned into mosques:
Nor was there much doubt concerning what fueled the Turks’ animus: “This nation of infidels,” a military leader explained, “comes against us because of our Christian faith and they are intent on destroying the ordinances of the worshippers of the cross and on exterminating the Christian faithful.” Therefore, “it is fitting and right for all the faithful to go forth with their swords and to die for the Christian faith.” Many were of the same mind; records tell of monks and priests, fathers, wives, and children, all shabbily armed but zealous to protect their way of life, coming out to face the invaders—only to be butchered or enslaved. |

 Fertilizer disruptions, sharply reduced Black Sea grain exports, disappointing U.S. wheat acreage and extreme weather are converging at the worst possible time. With a powerful El Niño still intensifying, experts warn the coming harvest could mark a turning point for global food supplies—and consumers may feel the consequences in both higher prices and worsening shortages.

 Nearly half of the chatbot conversations examined by a new research project had little or nothing to do with work. People are increasingly turning to AI for health questions, relationship advice and deeply personal counsel. The bigger AI revolution may not be whether machines replace our jobs—but whether they become our confidants, counselors and eventually our conscience.
