Carefully studying the geopolitical situation in the world today in the world, one can often hear the opinion that the Third World War will begin in 2017. Some people make a bold assumption that the war is already being waged and it is invisible, but effective. And it is not conducted at all by the special services, but by the media, since the war is informational. Which statement is correct?
Will World War III start in 2017?
Political scientists all over the world agree that at the current stage of development of statehood, many countries will not go to a deliberate armed conflict on a global scale, as this will entail large human losses. Instead, a return to the Cold War model, which was observed almost immediately after the end of World War II, is possible. Then the confrontation was between two superpowers: the United States and the USSR, which had a huge nuclear potential capable of destroying half of the planet. Today the threat of a nuclear strike is not so great, and the public opinion on this matter is unambiguous. However, the current adversaries - Russia and NATO - have something to shock each other.
It is argued that the constant escalation of the situation, which will occur with the help of a variety of media, minor clashes and major clashes in the territory of the Third World countries, can lead to a declaration of war and its beginning.
However, along with this, there is an opinion that World War 3 of 2017 is already being waged, and it is the media that are waging it, providing citizens of different countries with a diverse version of some events, presenting them in a favorable light for one or another political force. This theory is supported by the coverage of world news, the economic and political situation in the world.
Possible causes of the war
If the opinion about the possibility of starting a new world war is more or less unambiguous: it will either be or not, then the reasons for its beginning are not so clear. So, there are several possible reasons for the Third World War:
- War on religious grounds: a constant clash between the Christian and Muslim worlds, which today, thanks to the capabilities of weapons, has reached new level, can develop into a real military conflict and then Europe will be swept up not only by a wave of terrorist attacks, but also by real - military - attacks. If this scenario is realized, Europe will be destroyed, and the "center of the world" will be transferred to one of the Muslim countries, which will be the leader in this confrontation and will lead the holy war against the infidels.
- War of two super-states for the right of world influence and domination. Many people still believe that “ Cold war”Was never completed and the successors of the old political regimes only disguised the existing confrontation as imaginary friendship and now the real state of affairs is being revealed: there is no peacetime. Thus, the United States will enlist the support of the EU and Israel to oppose Russia's alliance with China and India. With such an alignment of forces, many countries will enter into a "neighboring conflict," such as South and North Korea.
- War for resources. Researchers have been saying for several years that the natural resources of our planet have been significantly depleted, and therefore the one who possesses them will have a strong influence on the economies of countries. The most valuable resource today is oil, since it is not only a source of income for entire states and the basis of economies, but also an important component everyday life citizens. It is believed that it will be the United States that will unleash the war, since its oil fields are almost depleted, the country will face bankruptcy in the coming years. And then Russia will be in a defensive position and act as a defender of the peoples and countries that the States will attack.
- War is a Masonic conspiracy. The existence of Freemasons who rule the world like puppeteers have been debated for a long time. And many copies have already been broken in the discussions, whether they really have such a huge impact as they are credited with. Nevertheless, one of the reasons for the Third World War in 2017 is the conspiracy of the brotherhood of masons, according to which they intend to reduce the population of the Earth in this way. The reason for this was the same lack of resources for so many people. That is, what less people remains alive, the longer the necessary wealth of the planet will last. In addition, such a war is associated with the apocalypse, necessary to cleanse the earth from humanity, mired in vices. After cleansing, the survivors will build a new, enlightened society. Naturally, under the guidance of the Freemasons.
Of course, today it is too early to say which of the reasons will become the trigger that triggered the global cataclysm. However, one should not forget that geopolitical preconditions have existed for quite some time.
Possible scenario and outcome of World War 3 in 2017
Today, the world is transparent thanks to new technologies: satellites that allow you to take pictures of the planet's surface from space, unmanned aircraft, surveillance cameras installed everywhere. All this, and even a photo of a fighter against the background of equipment, posted on a social network, allows one to assess the approximate firepower of a potential enemy. And if you add intelligence to this, you can get a more complete picture. In addition, some countries keep such information in the public domain: both for intimidation and for bragging.
It is on the basis of the number of equipment and soldiers that predictions are made of how the third world war could develop in 2017.
Based on the available data, the NATO bloc significantly exceeds the Russian Federation in the number of weapons and soldiers. But the main feature of the bloc's troops is their location: they are scattered all over the world, while Russia's military forces are concentrated on its territory.
It is also worth taking into account the technological progress that has improved weapons since their last use, and now the distance between armies can be several tens of kilometers, and the destruction is hundreds of times greater, since, for example, long-range missiles are capable of flying entire continents to their target. In this case, it will not be possible to avoid casualties among the civilian population. And this is the main reason why such a war scenario is denied by most politicians. The use of biological and chemical weapons of mass destruction is also considered unlikely.
Supporters of the theory of the Masonic conspiracy, who are betting on 2017 and the Third World War, will not agree with them. In their opinion, this is how events will develop, and if not at the beginning of the war, then quite soon the leadership of one of the parties in this war will come to this.
There are also several theories about where exactly the war will start. So, one of the main scenarios for today: Russia will attack the Baltic countries, and NATO will respond to this attack with an armed conflict. It is believed that after this, Russia’s hands will be untied and it will be able, hiding behind a version of defense and response to aggressive actions of the enemy, to launch a full-scale offensive against European countries. According to the supporters of this theory, Russia will win the war by establishing its dominance in the world for a long time. Not only will it be destroyed old worldbut the USA, Canada, China, Korea and some countries in Africa and South America.
Another version says that the war will begin inside Europe with Muslims against the governments, and Russia will enter into this confrontation much later, when the aggressor needs to be contained. According to this scenario, the Russian Federation will be defeated, but the Muslim countries will become stronger and will gradually spread their influence over the entire territory of the planet.
One way or another, most researchers of this issue agree that war will be tantamount, and this is its main danger to humanity.
Prophecies of the Third World War
The theory that the Third World War will nevertheless begin in 2017 is supported not only by military-political forecasts and observations of the situation, but also by the predictions of authoritative clairvoyants of the past and present. And, although this is not the most reliable source of information and predictions do not always come true, one cannot discount the words of Vanga or Nostradamus, whose warnings have been repeatedly confirmed by events in history.
Wanga's prediction
At the end of the last century, Vanga predicted a terrible war between peoples, in which everyone would participate. She spoke of large and massive destruction that would entail many deaths, hunger and devastation for many years. Religion was to be the cause of the war, and the starting point was the moment when people would stop compassion. Since the seer spoke in images, it is rather difficult to interpret her words, but researchers believe that she could speak about the east and the terrorist organization ISIS, which in recent times intensified.
However, Vanga never called exact dates, and about this event she mentioned that the children of the listeners, that is, presumably today's youth, will be witnesses.
Matrona of Moscow about the war in 2017
The blind seer saint also did not name the exact dates, but they tend to believe that her last prophecy refers precisely to 2017. It said that everyone would die without war, and that war was going on without war. At one point, everyone will fall to the ground, and at dawn they will rise. And salvation awaits those who have repented and managed to cleanse themselves before the Lord. Since Matrona was deeply religious, it is believed that this is how she predicted the Apocalypse.
There are also several other versions of the interpretation. “War without war is going on” - refers to the concept of information war, when there is no destruction, and the clash of minds and opinions is already taking place. They also believe that death without war can mean a collision with a space body, or a global ecological catastrophe, or even the spread of a deadly disease.
The prediction of Nostradamus
Nostradamus encrypted his predictions in quatrains - quatrains, to find out the secret meaning of which, they have been striving for several hundred years. However, the interpretation is not always successful or has one meaning. So, there are cases when more than one event is assumed under one quatrain. Skeptics argue that this is because the researchers simply “let down” the event that happened.
And meanwhile, Nostradamus predicts the beginning of the conflict in France on the Rhone River in 2017, which can serve as a starting point for a global conflict. And for 2018, he makes an equally gloomy prediction, which is interpreted as a warning: threats should be expected from Iran, and the United Nations will be the first to suffer, as the main one who can fight back and prevent further war.
Pavel Globa's predictions about world war
The well-known astrologer claims that the war will not cross the border of cold confrontation and the matter will never reach real armed clashes, since the countries will be too busy trying to maintain their economic well-being at the proper level. However, he predicts financial losses and periods of need for the United States and Russia. True, Russia will soon recover from the crisis thanks to energy resources and will be able to unite with several former republics of the USSR.
Also, the world will be shaken by natural disasters, which will cause great losses among the population of different countries, and this will rather rally humanity around another, more important problem - survival in the face of changing terrain, climate and depletion of natural resources.
The prediction of Malakhat Nazarova
Another modern prophetess believes that an armed conflict will never happen for several reasons at once. According to her, 2017 is a turning point not only in the history of human existence, but also in the universe as a whole. Despite the fact that the leap year is the previous one, in 2017 another period of chaos caused by the change of the millennium should end. And how it will end depends entirely on those in power, since the chance to reach consensus and resolve all conflicts through compromise is still quite large.
Also, like Globa, she predicts earthquakes, floods, volcanic eruptions and hurricanes, which will cause the largest disasters on earth. This should unite enemies and distract from international political problems, as more pressing issues will come to the fore that require immediate solutions and jointly.
September 21 is the International Day of Peace and the day of a general ceasefire and non-violence. But today there are almost four dozen hot spots in the world. Where and for what humanity is fighting today - in the material TUT.BY.
Gradation of conflicts:
Low intensity armed conflict - confrontation for religious, ethnic, political and other reasons. It is characterized by a low level of attacks and casualties - less than 50 per year.
Armed conflict of medium intensity - episodic terrorist attacks and military actions with the use of weapons. It is characterized by an average death rate of up to 500 per year.
High intensity armed conflict - constant hostilities using conventional weapons and weapons of mass destruction (with the exception of nuclear weapons); attraction of foreign states and coalitions. Such conflicts are often accompanied by massive and numerous terrorist attacks. It is characterized by a high level of casualties - from 500 per year or more.
Europe, Russia and Transcaucasia
Conflict in Donbass
Debaltsevo city, Donbass, Ukraine. February 20, 2015. Photo: ReutersStatus: regular clashes between separatists and the Ukrainian military, despite the ceasefire
Start: year 2014
The death toll: from April 2014 to August 2017 - more than 10 thousand people
The armed conflict in Donbass began in the spring of 2014. Pro-Russian activists, inspired by the annexation of Crimea by Russia and dissatisfied with the new government in Kiev, proclaimed the creation of Donetsk and Lugansk people's republics... After an attempt by the new Ukrainian authorities to forcefully suppress demonstrations in Donetsk and Luhansk regions, a full-scale armed conflict began, which has been dragging on for three years.
The situation in Donbas is on the global agenda, since Kiev accuses Moscow of helping the self-proclaimed republics, including through direct military intervention. The West supports these accusations, Moscow has consistently denied them.
The conflict moved from the active phase to the moderate intensity phase after the start of "" and the beginning.
But in the east of Ukraine, shooting continues, and people are dying from both sides.
Caucasus and Nagorno-Karabakh
There are two more hotbeds of instability in the region that are classified as armed conflicts.
The war in the early 1990s between Azerbaijan and Armenia led to the formation of the unrecognized Nagorno-Karabakh Republic (). Large-scale hostilities were last recorded here, then about 200 people were killed on both sides. But local armed clashes, in which Azerbaijanis and Armenians die,.
Despite all the efforts of Russia, the situation in the Caucasus remains extremely difficult: counter-terrorist operations are constantly being conducted in Dagestan, Chechnya and Ingushetia, the Russian special services report on the elimination of bandit formations and terrorist cells, but the flow of messages does not decrease.
Middle East and North Africa
The whole region in 2011 was shocked by "". From then until now, Syria, Libya, Yemen and Egypt are the hot spots of the region. In addition, the armed confrontation in Iraq and Turkey has been going on for many years.
War in Syria
Status: constant fighting
Start: 2011
The death toll: from March 2011 to August 2017 - from 330,000 to

Photo: Reuters After the US invasion in 2003 and the collapse of Saddam Hussein's regime, a civil war and revolt against the coalition government began in Iraq. And in 2014, part of the country's territory was seized by militants of the "Islamic State". Now a motley company is fighting the terrorists: the Iraqi army with the support of US troops, the Kurds, local Sunni tribes and Shiite formations. This summer, the most big City of those that were under the control of "IS", currently there is a struggle for control over the province of Anbar.
Radical Islamist groups are fighting Baghdad not only on the battlefield - in Iraq they are constantly with numerous victims.
Libya
Status: regular clashes between different factions
Start: 2011
Aggravation: year 2014
The death toll: from February 2011 to August 2017 - t 15,000 to 30,000
The conflict in Libya also began with the Arab Spring. In 2011, protesters against the Gaddafi regime were supported by the United States and NATO with airstrikes. The revolution won, Muammar Gaddafi was killed by the mob, but the conflict did not die out. In 2014, a new civil war broke out in Libya, and since then a diarchy has reigned in the country - in the east of the country in the city of Tobruk the parliament elected by the people sits, and in the west in the capital of Tripoli, the government of national accord formed with the support of the UN and Europe, headed by Faez Sarraj. In addition, there is a third force - the Libyan national army, which is fighting Islamic State militants and other radical groups. The situation is complicated by the civil strife of local tribes.
Yemen
Status: regular missile and air strikes, clashes between different groups
Start: year 2014
The death toll: from February 2011 to September 2017 - more than 10 thousand people
Yemen is another country with a conflict that dates back to the 2011 Arab Spring. President Ali Abdullah Saleh, who ruled Yemen for 33 years, handed over his powers to the country's vice-president, Abd Rabbo Mansour al-Hadi, who won early elections a year later. However, he failed to retain power in the country: in 2014, a civil war broke out between Shiite rebels (Houthis) and the Sunni government. Al-Hadi is supported by Saudi Arabia, which, together with other Sunni monarchies and with the consent of the United States, helps both ground operations and air strikes. Former President Saleh, who is supported by some of the Shiite rebels and Al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula, also joined the fight.

In the past two years, the conflict has escalated: the Turkish authorities blamed several Kurds, after which they carried out a sweep.
The Knife Intifada and Lebanon
There are several other hot spots in the region, which military experts refer to as “armed conflicts” of low intensity.
First of all, this is the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, the next aggravation of which was called "". Between 2015 and 2016, there have been more than 250 attacks by Islamic radicals armed with melee weapons on Israelis. As a result, 36 Israelis, 5 foreigners and 246 Palestinians were killed. Knife and screwdriver attacks have subsided this year, but armed attacks continue: in July, three Arabs of one Israeli police officer on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem.
Another smoldering hotspot is Lebanon. The smoldering conflict in Lebanon is at a low degree of intensity only due to the emphasized neutrality of the authorities regarding the civil war in Syria and the related conflict in Lebanon between Sunnis and Shiites. Lebanese Shiites and Hezbollah support the pro-Assad coalition, Sunnis oppose, and radical Islamist groups oppose the Lebanese authorities. Armed clashes and terrorist attacks occur periodically: the largest of them in recent years was the double terrorist attack in Beirut in 2015, as a result of which.
Asia and Pacific
Afghanistan
Status: constant terrorist attacks and armed clashes
The beginning of the conflict: 1978 year
Aggravation of the conflict: year 2001
The death toll: from 2001 to August 2017 - more than 150,000 people
Doctors at a hospital in Kabul examine a boy injured in a terrorist attack on September 15, 2017. On this day in Kabul, a mined tanker truck was blown up at a checkpoint leading to the diplomatic quarter. After the 9/11 attacks, the military contingent of NATO and the United States entered Afghanistan. The Taliban regime was overthrown, but a military conflict began in the country: the Afghan government, with the support of NATO and US forces, is fighting the Taliban and Islamist groups associated with Al-Qaeda and IS.
Despite the fact that there are still 13,000 NATO and US military personnel in Afghanistan, and there are discussions about whether it should be, the activity of terrorists in the country remains high: dozens of people die in the republic every month.
The smoldering Kashmir conflict and the internal problems of India and Pakistan
In 1947, two states were formed on the territory of former British India - India and Pakistan. The section happened by religious principle: Provinces with a predominantly Muslim population went to Pakistan, and with a Hindu majority to India. But not everywhere: despite the fact that the majority of the population of Kashmir was Muslim, the region was annexed to India.
Residents of Kashmir province stand on the rubble of three houses destroyed by a Pakistani military artillery strike. This blow was delivered in response to the shelling of Pakistani territories by Indian troops, which, in turn, reacted to the attack of militants, in their opinion, arrived from Pakistan. Photo: Reuters Since Kashmir - a disputed territory between the two countries and the cause of three Indo-Pakistani wars and several smaller military conflicts. According to various sources, over the past 70 years, he claimed about 50 thousand lives. In April 2017, the UN Institute for Disarmament Research published an annual report, where the Kashmir conflict was mentioned as one of those that could provoke a military conflict with the use of nuclear weapons. Both India and Pakistan are members of the "club of nuclear powers" with an arsenal of several dozen nuclear warheads.
Besides general conflictEach country has several hotspots with varying degrees of intensity, and all of them are recognized by the international community as military conflicts.
Pakistan has three: separatist movements in the western province Baluchistan, the fight against the Tehreek-e Taliban Pakistan in the unrecognized state Waziristan and clashes between Pakistani security officials and various militant groups in the semi-autonomous region " Federally Administered Tribal Areas"(FATA). Radicals from these regions attack government buildings, law enforcement officers and organize terrorist attacks.
There are four hotspots in India. In three Indian states - Assam, Nagaland and Manipur because of religious-ethnic clashes, nationalist and separatist movements are strong, which do not disdain terrorist attacks and hostage-taking.
And in 20 of the 28 Indian states there are Naxalites - Maoist militant groups that demand the creation of free self-governing zones, where they (of course!) Will build the most real and correct communism. Naxalites practice attacks on officials and government troops and organize more than half of the attacks in India. The country's authorities have officially declared the Naxalites terrorists and call them the main internal threat to the country's security.
Myanmar
Not so long ago, the media, which usually do not pay attention to the third world countries, has focused attention.
In this country, in August, the religious and ethnic conflict between the residents of the state of Rakhine - Arakanese Buddhists and Muslim Rohingya - escalated. Hundreds of separatists from the Arakan Rohingya Salvation Army (ASRA) attacked 30 police strongholds, killing 15 police and military personnel. After that, the troops launched an anti-terrorist operation: in just one week, the military killed 370 Rohingya separatists, and 17 casualties were reported. local residents... How many people died in Myanmar in September is still unknown. Hundreds of thousands of Rohingya fled to Bangladesh, leading to a humanitarian crisis.
Southern thailand
A number of radical Islamic organizations advocate the independence of the southern provinces of Yala, Pattani and Narathiwat from Thailand and demand either the creation of an independent Islamic state or the incorporation of the provinces into Malaysia.

For 13 years of aggravation of the conflict, more than 6,000 people have died in it.
Uyghur conflict
Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region (XUAR, the abbreviated Chinese name for Xinjiang) is located in northwest China. It occupies one-sixth of the entire territory of China, and the majority of its inhabitants are Uyghurs, a Muslim people whose representatives are not always delighted with the national policy of the country's communist leadership. In Beijing, however, Xinjiang is perceived as a region of "three hostile forces" - terrorism, religious extremism and separatism.
The Chinese authorities have reason for that - the operating terrorist group "Islamic Movement of East Turkestan", whose goal is to create an Islamic state in China, is responsible for the unrest and terrorist attacks in Xinjiang: over 1000 people have died in the region over the past 10 years.

In addition, Uyghurs were urged to sell alcohol and tobacco in stores and not to publicly celebrate religious holidays.
Armed conflict in the Philippines
For more than four decades in the Philippines, the conflict has continued between Manila and armed groups of Muslim separatists in the south of the country, which traditionally advocate the creation of an independent Islamic state. The situation worsened after the positions of the "Islamic State" in the Middle East were significantly shaken: many Islamists rushed to Southeast Asia. Two large groups, Abu Sayyaf and Maute, swore allegiance to IS and in May captured the city of Marawi on the Philippine island of Mindanao. Government forces still cannot drive the militants out of the city. Also, radical Islamists arrange armed attacks not only in the south, but also.
According to the latest figures, from May to September this year in the Philippines, as a result of terrorist attacks, a total of 45 civilians and 136 soldiers and police officers were killed.
North and South America
Mexico
In 2016, Mexico ranked second in death toll on the list of states where armed clashes continue, second only to Syria. The nuance is that there is officially no war on the territory of Mexico, but for more than ten years there has been a battle between the country's authorities and drug cartels. The latter are still at war with each other, and there is something for that - the income from the sale of drugs in the United States alone is up to 64 billion dollars a year. And about $ 30 billion more a year drug cartels receive from the sale of drugs to Europe.

"Northern Triangle"
In Mexico, drugs come from South America. All transit routes pass through the three countries of the Northern Triangle in Central America: Honduras, El Salvador and Guatemala.
The Northern Triangle is one of the most violent regions in the world, where powerful transnational criminal organizations have flourished, many of which are linked to Mexican drug traffickers; local organized crime groups; gangs like the 18th Street Gang (M-18) and Pandillas street gangs. All these groups and clans are constantly at war among themselves for the redistribution of spheres of influence.

This decision was warmly supported in the United States, where for last years due to the high level of violence and corruption, 8.5% of the population of the Northern Triangle immigrated.
The countries of the Northern Triangle are also recognized as parties to the armed conflict with a high degree of intensity.
Colombia
The confrontation between the Colombian authorities and the left-wing extremist Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC) lasted for more than 50 years. Over the years, about 220 thousand people have died, about 7 million have lost their homes. In 2016, it was signed between the Colombian authorities and the FARC. Rebels from the Colombian National Liberation Army (ELN) refused to join the agreement, which, together with the problem of large-scale drug trafficking, leaves the military conflict in the country in the status of "medium intensity".
Africa: Sub-Saharan Africa
IN Somalia For more than 20 years, lawlessness has reigned: neither the government, nor the UN peacekeepers, nor the military intervention of neighboring countries can stop the anarchy. The radical Islamist group "Al-Shabaab" is actively operating on the territory of Somalia, and the coastal areas began to earn money by piracy.

Boko Haram militants control about 20% of the territory in the north of the country. The army of Nigeria is fighting with them, which is assisted by the military from neighboring Cameroon, Chad and Niger.
In addition to jihadists, the country has another conflict zone in the Niger Delta... For more than 20 years, the government forces of Nigeria and mercenaries of oil companies, on the one hand, and the ethnic groups of Ogoni, Igbo and Ijo, on the other, have been trying to establish control over the oil-bearing regions with varying success.
In another country, the youngest recognized state in the world - South Sudan, - the civil war began two years after gaining independence, in 2013, and despite the presence of a 12,000-strong UN peacekeeping contingent. Formally, it goes between government forces and the rebels, but in fact - between representatives of the dominant Dinka people (including President Salwa Kiir) and the Nuer tribe, from which Vice President Riek Mashar comes.
Restless and in Sudan... In the Darfur region in the west of the country, inter-ethnic conflict has lasted since 2003, resulting in an armed confrontation between the central government, the informal pro-government Arab armed groups "Janjaweed" and local rebel groups. According to various estimates, as a result of the Darfur conflict, from 200 to 400 thousand people died, 2.5 million people became refugees.
Armed conflict in Mali between government forces, Tuaregs, various separatist groups and radical Islamists flared up in early 2012. The starting point of events was a military coup, as a result of which the current head of state, Amadou Toure, was overthrown. To maintain order in the country, there are UN peacekeepers and a French contingent, but, despite this, hostage-taking is constantly in Mali.
In the eastern provinces Democratic Republic of the CongoDespite all the efforts of the authorities and peacekeepers, the situation has remained tense for many years. Various Islamist and Christian groups, armed formations of local tribes and gangs from neighboring states operate in the country. All of them are attracted by the colossal reserves of rich minerals: gold, diamonds, copper, tin, tantalum, tungsten, more than half of the world's proven uranium reserves. According to the UN DRC Panel of Experts, illegal gold mining "clearly remains the main source of funding for armed groups."
IN Central African Republic (CAR) in 2013, Muslim rebels overthrew the Christian president, after which sectarian strife erupted in the country. Since 2014, a UN peacekeeping mission has been in the country.
Most of the well-known in the past and modern forecasters predict hard and terrible times for the coming year. But at the same time, their prophecies say that the opportunity to avoid all the horrors of this terrible time is associated with the arrival of the Russian Tsar. It all depends on which path the Russian people choose. Will he accept a new worldview or will he adhere to an old vicious system that is leading humanity to inevitable death?
PROPHECY OF PROTOJOY NIKOLAY GURYANOV:
Father Nikolai, who will be after Yeltsin? What can we expect?
After there will be a military man.
How soon?
- ... His power will be linear. But his age is small, and so is he. There will be persecutions against the monks and the Church. Power will be like under the Communists and the Politburo.
And after that there will be an Orthodox Tsar.
Will we live, father?
You - yes.
PREDICTIONS BY SCHIARCHIMANDRIT CHRISTOPHOR THE ELDER OF TULA (1996):
Father said that the world is not going to salvation, but to its soon destruction. When Boris Yeltsin was still in power, Father said: “He hasn't done anything good, but he doesn't touch the Church either, and this is the main thing. And after him he will be young, he will generally confuse everything ... Everything will be done cunningly and cunningly ... And then things will start that God alone will figure it out. ... You will all return to manual labor ”.
Note. Apparently the entire civilization with its technical progress will be destroyed, since instead of machines people will work manually.
VASILY NEMCHIN:
“After the reign of Mishka the Marked (Mikhail Gorbachev), the second titan“ Giant ”(Boris Yeltsin) will appear in Russia. In the last years of his rule, the Giant (Boris Yeltsin) will wander through the labyrinth, and a dwarf with a black face (Vladimir Putin) will sit on his shoulders. Titan (Boris Yeltsin) will leave in such a way that no one will expect this (the sudden and unexpected departure at the end of 1999 of Boris Yeltsin from the post of President of Russia). A dwarf with a black face (Vladimir Putin) will be like a man with a helmet and a visor, half bald, half hairy, his eyes are green and swampy, long-nosed. He will be in power when he has two fives and will sit on two tables (two positions - President and Prime Minister). He will not be loved by the people, but he will be able to rally a great power around him. And there will be blood associated with the fall of the green-eyed helmet-bearer. Then he (Vladimir Putin) will be thrown into the abyss. "
Note. A dwarf with a black face means a person who has black and bad thoughts displayed on his face, but he will pretend to be a bright and good person.
A man with a helmet and visor means a person with hidden thoughts, who has plans that he hides from everyone, who is prone to deceiving people.
Long-nosed means a person who directs all his forces so that no one speaks or does anything against him, and for this he pokes his long nose into all spheres of people's lives.
Prophets talk about the return of communism under Putin (in the sense that its methods will be similar to those of the communists) at its worst, with surveillance, planting innocents and protesters. The only difference is that the communists justified their methods by national interests Soviet Unionand Putin and his entourage act in the interests of transnational corporations and outright enemies of Russia. The national interests of Russia are alien to the Kremlin liberal leadership. Putin's dictatorship is still relatively mild, but it will be much worse in the future (for example, the so-called repressive package of Yarovaya laws, released in The State Duma from the table of the Presidential Administration of the Russian Federation). The prophets directly said about Putin that "the beast will wake up in him." And this is logical, because when the economy comes to its complete collapse, as a result of which the people are impoverished (freezing of pensions and salaries, curtailment of social programs), in order to stay in power, the ruler turns into a dictator. The indignation of the people by the mediocrity of the ruler can only be suppressed by force. Moreover, the use of force against the people is justified by the use of force for the good of the people and for the sake of saving the country. In fact, it is necessary to save the country from the dictator himself, because nothing can harm the country more than the mediocrity of the dictator.
THE ELDER MONK JOSEPH (THE YOUNGER) (2002):
“The Lord will blind their minds so that they will destroy each other with gluttony. The Lord will allow this on purpose in order to carry out a great cleansing. As for the one who runs the country, he will not be long, and what is happening now will not be long, and then immediately the war. ... There will be a big carnage. Only the dead will be about 600 million people ... ".
PREDICTIONS BY SCHIMONACHE JOHN FROM THE VILLAGE OF NIKOLSKOE:
“There will be a great famine. There will be no electricity, no water, no gas. Only those who grow their own food will have a chance to survive. China will go to war against us and occupy all of Siberia to the Urals. The Japanese will dominate the Far East. Russia will begin to tear apart. A terrible war will begin ... Russia will remain within the borders of Tsar Ivan the Terrible. ... The authorities will literally go berserk. There will be such a hunger that those who have accepted the "seal" will eat the dead. And most importantly - pray and hurry up to change your life so as not to live in sin, as there is no time left at all ... ”.
THE LAST PROPHECY OF MOTHER OF MOSCOW:
“In 2017, humanity will die. Pray, the bad time is coming, pray. The end is near. Do less mundane affairs. Turn to God, save your soul. You don't know what to expect. Such sorrows await you, which you do not know what awaits you ... There will be many victims, all the dead on the ground will lie ... ".
PROPHECIES OF SCHIARCHIMANDRIT SERAPHIM:
“... The collapse of Russia, despite the apparent strength and toughness of the government, will happen very quickly. First, the Slavic peoples will be divided ... After that, the central power in Russia will begin to weaken even more, so that the autonomous republics and regions will separate. Further, there will be an even greater collapse: the authorities of the Center will cease in practice to recognize individual regions that will try to live independently, and will no longer pay attention to the decrees from Moscow. ... The country will lose the main deposits of raw materials ... The Lord will allow the loss of huge lands given to Russia, because we ourselves could not use them adequately, but only dirtied them, spoiled them ... The Slavic peoples have a common destiny ... ".
PELAGIA RYAZAN (1966):
“There will be great sorrow when the servants of the Antichrist will deprive believers of food, work, pensions ... There will be groans, crying and much more ... Many will die ... There will be a terrible hunger ... There will be no food, no water, unspeakable heat, remorse by beasts, at every step will be strangled to hang ... The Russian people will be strangled by all means. There will be so many suicides in our country. Still to come. Hunger, and when hunger - cannibalism! War ... Terrible misfortunes will befall Russia, many cities will be destroyed by the Lord Himself, although all churches will be opened. This power will change ... So these communists will be back! .. That the capitalist, that the communist, everyone cares about himself ... Only the Tsar cares about the people. God will choose him! And almost all the people, the people now corrupted, will choose the Antichrist for themselves! .. There is no need to save money, it will be lost ... Many people will not stand this, because of the loss of their money they will hang themselves and lay hands on themselves ... There will be even greater persecutions on our Faith ... Even the tax will be taken from the icons! .. All evil spirits will take up arms against Russia, against true Orthodoxy. ... The Antichrist in Russia will come to power and start persecuting Orthodoxy. And then the Lord will reveal his Tsar in Russia. He will be the royal family and will be a strong defender of our Faith! .. Many people from all over the earth will gather to serve this King. "
PROPHECIES OF THE OLD MOTHER MACARIA (1993):
“... The Lord does not promise anything good, we will not get anything ... War, everyone will be in the war ... many people will be killed ... The dead are properly laid, and we will have to somersault. There will be no one to bury, so they will dump it in a hole and bury it ... Bad life will come ... Great hunger, there will be no bread - we will divide the crust in half ... A crop failure will begin ... A great uprising will take place. It's bad that we lived to see the end of the world. Now a little bit remains ... They will begin to persecute, take away ... First they will take away the books, and then the icons. The icons will be taken away ... no one will give a piece of bread ”.
ST.LAVRENTIUS CHERNIGOVSKY:
"... Such will be a world war that no one will remain anywhere, except in the gorge ... Christians will be killed or exiled to desert places ... This disaster will last three and a half years."
REVIEW CUKSHA OF ODESSA (1964):
“Terrible calamities are coming to earth: fire, hunger, death and destruction, and who can turn them away! And this time is very close, do not listen to anyone if they say that there will be peace, no, there will be no peace, there will be war. And then a terrible famine will begin. And where will everything go at once! There will be nothing to eat, and death awaits people from gladness. The people will be sent to the east, but not a single soul will return, they will all die there. From the gladness there will be a terrible death, and whoever survives will die from a pestilence. This contagious disease does not respond to treatment. It was not in vain that the holy prophet Ezra said: woe, woe for you, our land, one grief will pass, the second will come, the third, etc.
ST.THEODOSIUS (KASHIN), ELDER OF JERUSALEM (1948):
“Was that a war (World War II). There will be a war. It will start from the east. And then from all sides, like the locust, the enemies will crawl to Russia. This will be a war! .. ".
BLESSED OLD KIEV MONAKHINA ALIPIA:
“This will not be a war, but the execution of peoples for their rotten state. Dead bodies will lie in mountains, no one will undertake to bury them ... People will run from place to place ”.
ELDER ANTHONY:
“… The cities will be a terrifying sight. Even those who avoid total destruction, deprived of water and electricity, heat and food supplies, they will resemble huge stone coffins, so many people will die. Gangs will endlessly commit their atrocities, it will be dangerous to move around the city even during the day. At night, people will gather in large groups in order to try to survive until the morning. The sunrise, alas, will herald not the joy of a new day, but the grief of having to live that day. Do not think that peace and prosperity will reign in the countryside. Poisoned, disfigured, drought-incinerated or flooded fields will not yield the required harvest. There will be an unprecedented death of livestock and people, unable to bury animals, will leave them to decompose, poisoning the air. The peasants will suffer from the attacks of the townspeople, who, in search of food, will disperse to the villages, ready to kill a man for a piece of bread. Yes, for this piece, which now does not go down their throats without seasonings and sauces, blood will flow. Cannibalism will become commonplace. By accepting the seal of antichrist, humanity will erase all boundaries of morality. For the villagers, night is also a period of special fear, for this time will be with the most cruel robberies. And you need not only to survive, but also to save property for work, otherwise starvation also threatens. The people themselves, as in the city, will also be hunted. From the outside it will seem that the antediluvian times have returned. Every major city is an outrage against nature, and it will become a source of disaster for people. First, a source of misfortune, and then a common coffin for those who lived in it. China will overwhelm most of Russia. All lands beyond the mountains and after them will be yellow. The yellow plague is not the only one. There will be a black invasion - hungry Africans stricken with incurable diseases will fill our cities and towns ... Lately, everyone and everyone will be in evil. Banks will burst to bring people to their knees. And they will burst overnight ... And during the day it will be dangerous to be on the street because of the gangs of robbers. They will die akin to urban stray animals - without confession, without Communion, without funeral service, even without coffins. It will not be so easy even to bury the bodies in a cemetery, corpses in houses will lie for days, while relatives and friends can Prophecies for 2017.
Deal with the bandits who control the resting places. Therefore, as always in difficult times, graves will begin to appear in courtyards, squares, wherever possible. They will be buried there secretly, trying to hide the grave, because at night crowds of the most fallen cannibals - scavengers will wander in the city, hoping to profit from carrion ... Rivers will either dry up or turn into gutters exuding deadly miasms. It will be the same with lakes, ponds ... Inland seas will also die, and it will be impossible to live near them. Rotting surfaced fish, sea animals, hydrogen sulfide rising from the bottom will bring unexpected death to the inhabitants of the coast. So much for your hunger. He is always terrible, but like this the earth has not yet seen - there will be no bread, no water, no Gospel love and compassion. This will be the sad result of human excesses, following their passions. The hunger of the last time will be even worse - hope for the best will disappear. Previously, people knew that it was worth somehow holding out with the grace of God, you see, with a new harvest, you will leave, you will regain your strength. Now this will not happen, faith in God will disappear, and faith in the best will also disappear. They will rely only on their own strength, on surviving at the expense of their neighbor. Just as in besieged Leningrad, bandits took out bread cards from people, or took them by force, dooming a person, and sometimes a whole family to starvation, so now they will steal and take away food. And kill. Siberia will be yellow completely. Far East Japanese. And for Siberia, for its oil and gas, gold, everything else, all battles will not even be with ours, but with the Americans ... The whole south will burn, Slavic blood will be spilled! Everyone, you hear Father, everyone will have to endure moral, spiritual and physical torment during these years. "
PROPHECY OF SAINT MALACHI:
This Irish priest made a list of all future Popes from 1143 onwards. Under Benedict XVI (he is now the current Pope - 111th on the list), whom the soothsayer calls by name, the world is facing a catastrophe. After which the throne will be taken by the next 112th Peter of Rome or Peter II, under which the end of the world will come. That is, under the current Pope, the world will face a gigantic catastrophe, and under the next Pope, the world will end.
Note. What can save Russia and the world from these terrible prophecies? Almost all prophets claim that only the Tsar in Russia can change these prophecies. Only the King will God give such an opportunity.
SAINT THEOPHAN POLTAVSKY (1930):
“Monarchy and autocratic power will be restored in Russia. The Lord has chosen the future King ... God Himself will put a strong King on the throne. "
PROTOPER NIKOLAY GURYANOV (2002):
"After the war ... there will be an Orthodox Tsar."
BASIL THE BLESSED:
"Russia will live a whole century without a Tsar."
Note. In 2017, it will be one hundred years since the overthrow of the Tsar, which means that this year there will be a Tsar in Russia.
PROPHECY OF THE SEER BASIL NEMCHIN:
"The king in Russia ... will be a sage and esoteric who possesses secret knowledge."
Michelle Nostradamus (see the article "The Message of Nostradamus to the Russian people"), Ragno Nero, Monk Abel, Lawrence of Chernigov and many others also prophesied about the Tsar's return to Russia.
The meaning of all the prophecies boils down to the fact that in 2016-2017 Russia will be on the verge of revolution, since due to the mediocre politics russian leadership the Russian economy will collapse, and the people will be sharply impoverished. The first symptoms can be seen right now. There will be mass rallies associated with demands for Putin's departure from the presidency. The people will have a choice: either a revolution with the inevitable horrors of a long civil war, or the Tsar. If Putin peacefully hands over power to the Tsar, then there will be no civil war. And this will save Russia.
But there is another problem. It is unlikely that the world government will put up with the arrival of the Russian Tsar. Putin, who faithfully served the interests of oligarchic (i.e., Western) capital and was a fanatical champion of Western liberal ideology, fully suited the West, despite external criticism directed at him. It is quite logical that, taking advantage of the difficult internal situation in Russia, in the fall of 2017 the West will unleash a third world war, which, as indicated in the prophecies, will last three and a half years and will end in February-March 2021. If by the spring of 2017 there is a Tsar in Russia, then we will survive. If there is no Tsar, there will be a revolution and a civil war, and then a third world war (after all, the West does not need any Russia, neither communist nor liberal). Almost no one will be able to survive in this massacre.
Both the prophets of the past and modern forecasters warn that Russia and the World have a chance to survive only if there is a Tsar in Russia in 2017 !!! Any other outcome means death, both for Russia and for the rest of the World. In 2016 - 2017, it will be decided whether there will be a Tsar in Russia, and whether Russia will exist at all. The choice will have to be made by each of us.
Endless terrorist attacks, incessant armed conflicts, continuing disagreements between Russia, the United States and the European Union indicate that peace on our planet literally hangs in the balance. This situation is alarming for both politicians and ordinary people... It is no coincidence that the issue of the outbreak of the Third World War is being seriously discussed by the entire world community.
Expert opinion
Some political analysts believe that the mechanism of war was already launched several years ago. It all started in Ukraine, when a corrupt president was ousted and new government in the country they called it illegitimate, but simply the junta. Then they announced to the whole world that it was fascist and they began to frighten her one-sixth of the land. First, mistrust was sown in the heads of the people of the two fraternal peoples, and then open enmity. A full-scale information war began, in which everything was subordinated to inciting hatred between people.
This confrontation was painful for families, relatives, friends of the two fraternal peoples. It got to the point that the politicians of the two countries are ready to push brother against brother. The situation on the Internet also speaks of the danger of the situation. Various discussion platforms and forums have turned into real battlefields where everything is allowed.
If someone else doubts the likelihood of war, then they can simply go to any social network and see what intensity the discussion of hot topics is reaching, starting with information about oil quotes and ending with the upcoming Eurovision Song Contest.
If it is possible to quarrel two fraternal peoples who have shared grief and victories for over 360 years, then what can we say about other countries. Any nation can be called an enemy overnight, having prepared timely information support in the media and the Internet. So, for example, it was with Turkey.
At present, Russia is testing new methods of war on the example of Crimea, Donbass, Ukraine, Syria. Why deploy multimillion-dollar armies, transfer troops, if you can carry out a "successful information attack", and to top it off, send a small contingent of "little green men". Fortunately, positive experience already exists in Georgia, Crimea, Syria and the Donbass.
Some political observers believe that it all began in Iraq, when the United States decided to remove the allegedly undemocratic president and carried out Operation Desert Storm. As a result, the country's natural resources came under US control.
Having gained a little "fat" in the two thousandth and after conducting a number of military operations, Russia decided not to yield and prove to the whole world that it "got up from its knees." Hence such "decisive" actions in Syria, Crimea and Donbass. In Syria, we protect the whole world from ISIS, in Crimea, Russians from Bandera, in Donbass, the Russian-speaking population from Ukrainian punishers.
In fact, an invisible confrontation between the United States and Russia has already begun. America does not want to share its dominance in the world with Russia. Direct proof of this is today's Syria.
The tension in different parts of the world, where the interests of the two countries meet, will only grow.
There are experts who believe that the tension with America is caused by the fact that the latter is aware of the loss of its leading position against the backdrop of a strengthening China and wants to destroy Russia in order to seize its natural resources. Various methods of weakening the Russian Federation are used:
- eU sanctions;
- decline in oil prices;
- involving the Russian Federation in the arms race;
- support of protest sentiments in Russia.
America is doing everything to repeat the situation in 1991, when the Soviet Union collapsed.
War in Russia is inevitable in 2020
This point of view is shared by the American political analyst I. Hagopian. He posted his thoughts on this on the GlobalResears website. He noted that there are all signs of the preparation of the United States and Russia for war. The author notes that America will be supported by:
- nATO countries;
- Israel;
- Australia;
- all US satellites around the world.
China and India are among Russia's allies. The expert believes that the United States is facing bankruptcy and therefore it will attempt to seize the wealth of the Russian Federation. He also stressed that as a result of this conflict, some states may disappear.
Former NATO leader A. Shirreff gives similar forecasts. For this, he even wrote a book about the war with Russia. In it, he notes the inevitability of a military confrontation with America. According to the plot of the book, Russia is taking over the Baltic states. NATO countries are defending it. As a result, the Third World War begins. On the one hand, the plot looks frivolous and implausible, but on the other hand, given that the work was written by a retired general, the script looks quite plausible.
Who will win America or Russia
To answer this question, it is necessary to compare the military power of the two powers:
| Armament | Russia | USA |
| Active army | 1.4 million people | 1.1million people |
| Reserve | 1.3 million people | 2.4 million people |
| Airports and runways | 1218 | 13513 |
| Aircraft | 3082 | 13683 |
| Helicopters | 1431 | 6225 |
| Tanks | 15500 | 8325 |
| Armored vehicles | 27607 | 25782 |
| Self-propelled guns | 5990 | 1934 |
| Towed artillery | 4625 | 1791 |
| MLRS | 4026 | 830 |
| Ports and terminals | 7 | 23 |
| Warships | 352 | 473 |
| Aircraft carriers | 1 | 10 |
| Submarines | 63 | 72 |
| Strike ships | 77 | 17 |
| Budget | 76 trillion | 612 trillion |
Success in war does not depend solely on superiority in weapons. According to the military expert J. Shields, the Third World War will not be similar to the two previous wars. Fighting will be carried out using computer technology. They will become more short-lived, but the number of victims will be in the thousands. Nuclear weapon unlikely to be used, but chemical and bacteriological weapons, as an auxiliary means, are not excluded.
Attacks will be launched not only on the battlefield, but also in:
- the field of communications;
- the Internet;
- television;
- economy;
- finance;
- politics;
- outer space.
Something similar is happening in Ukraine now. The offensive is on all fronts. Blatant misinformation, hacker attacks on financial servers, sabotage in the economic field, discrediting politicians, diplomats, terrorist attacks, disconnecting broadcasting satellites and much more can cause irreparable damage to the enemy along with hostilities at the front.
Psychic predictions
Throughout history, there have been many prophets who predicted the end of humanity. One of them is Nostradamus. As for the world wars, he accurately predicted the first two. Regarding the Third World War, he said that it would happen through the fault of the Antichrist, who will stop at nothing and will be terribly merciless.
The next psychic, whose prophecies have come true, is Wanga. She informed future generations that World War III would start from a small state in Asia. The fastest is Syria. The military action will be triggered by an attack on four heads of state. The consequences of the war will be dire.
The famous psychic P. Globa also said his words about the Third World War. His forecasts can be called optimistic. He said that humanity will end World War III if it prevents hostilities in Iran.
The psychics listed above are not the only ones who predicted World War III. Similar predictions were made:
- A. Ilmeier;
- Mulchiazl;
- Edgar Cayce;
- G. Rasputin;
- bishop Anthony;
- Saint Hilarion and others
