Iran attacks US targets in Middle East after four reportedly killed at wedding celebration

Iran has launched missile and drone attacks at US targets across the Middle East, after American forces resumed strikes against Iran (early today).

• Kuwait and Jordan said they were responding to Iranian attacks early on Wednesday, while Iranian state media reported strikes on Iraq and Bahrain

• It comes after the Iranian Red Crescent said four people - including a child - were killed at a wedding celebration when shrapnel from a US missile hit a house in southern Iran. Iranian media initially said five people had been killed

  

• In response, Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf - Iran's chief negotiator in talks with the US earlier this year - says: "If a power acts like Satan, picks targets like Satan, and kills like Satan, it's Satan"

• The US military says it is aware of the reports but that it never targets civilians, and was striking Iranian targets in response to "recent attempted attacks" on American forces and commercial shipping in the Strait of Hormuz

JD Vance Says The Antichrist May Be Walking Among Us - Could He Be Right?

 Prophecy News Watch 2nd September 

JD Vance Says The Antichrist May Be Walking Among Us - Could He Be Right? JD Vance says he wouldn’t be shocked if the Antichrist were already walking among us. Could he be right? Scripture provides a surprisingly detailed profile of this coming world leader - and he may not initially appear as a terrifying dictator at all. In a world exhausted by war and desperate for stability, the Antichrist’s greatest initial appeal may be something everyone is longing for: peace. Continue Reading

Israel threatens to retaliate against Britain as Ed Miliband vows 'comprehensive reset' of relations

Israel has warned it will retaliate against Britain if the Government imposes sanctions over its plans to expand settlements in the West Bank.

Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Saar issued the warning after Foreign Secretary Ed Miliband pledged a "comprehensive reset" of Britain's policy towards Israel.

Mr Saar said: "If Britain acts against Israel, Israel will act against Britain." "If they act, I think they will be making a big mistake," the Israeli Foreign Minister told a Hebrew language news site.

The warning came as ministers indicated the Government could ban trade in goods from Israeli settlements in the West Bank.

Mr Miliband told MPs that Britain was examining how to stop British companies "financing, constructing or advertising new settlements". He accused Israel of "the crossing of a red line" over its plans for the controversial E1 settlement, which the UK Government considers illegal under international law.

Jerusalem Is A Burdensome Stone Blocking Pernicious Peace

 

“Burdensome Stone” Blocking Pernicious Peace

Terry James - https://terryjamesprophecyline.com/2026/08/30/burdensome-stone-blocking-pernicious-peace/

Israel has long been at the center of observation as we watch issues and events unfold in Bible prophecy. God’s Word tells us that Israel, His chosen nation and people, will be at the center of hatred by the entire world at the climax of history leading to Christ’s return.

We’ve looked numerous times at the key Scripture that provides this truth for the wrap-up of the age:

The burden of the word of the LORD for Israel, saith the LORD, which stretcheth forth the heavens, and layeth the foundation of the earth, and formeth the spirit of man within him. Behold, I will make Jerusalem a cup of trembling unto all the people round about, when they shall be in the siege both against Judah and against Jerusalem. And in that day will I make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all people: all that burden themselves with it shall be cut in pieces, though all the people of the earth be gathered together against it. (Zechariah 12:1–3)

After Trump - Middle East Nations Already Plotting Next Moves

By PNW Staff - https://www.prophecynewswatch.com/article.cfm?recent_news_id=10430#google_vignette

Donald Trump may be the most powerful player on the Middle Eastern chessboard today, but virtually every government in the region understands something that could ultimately prove more important: Trump has an expiration date.

January 20, 2029.

Israel knows it. Turkey knows it. Saudi Arabia knows it. Qatar knows it. Iran knows it. Hamas certainly knows it.

That reality may help explain some of the seemingly contradictory maneuvering now taking place across the Middle East. Governments are negotiating with Trump, accommodating Trump and attempting to extract concessions from Trump. At the same time, they are positioning themselves for the possibility that America’s next president could dramatically change the rules of the game. They don’t necessarily have to defeat Trump’s policies. Some may simply have to survive them.

The Stage Is Set, The Fuse Is Lit, and 3 Global Conflicts Are on the Brink of Detonation

by Michael Snyder - https://theeconomiccollapseblog.com/the-stage-is-set-the-fuse-is-lit-and-3-global-conflicts-are-on-the-brink-of-detonation/

We are facing one of the most dangerous chapters in human history. For years, I have been warning about 3 global conflicts which would collectively make up World War III. Unfortunately, the stage has now been set for a polycrisis of epic proportions. The war with Iran threatens to greatly escalate, the continuous bombardment of Kyiv has NATO on high alert, and China has decided to literally surround Taiwan with large numbers of ships. Tensions are running sky high, and events in Europe, the Middle East and Asia could all spiral out of control at any moment.

Last night, fighting in the Middle East erupted once again.

The U.S. conducted airstrikes on Iranian military targets on Larak Island, and in response the Iranians fired off at least 8 ballistic missiles…

On Sunday, the United States struck Iran’s Larak Island after the U.S. observed military personnel preparing to deploy rockets loaded with sea mines into the Strait of Hormuz.

The Chinese Dragon Lurks Beneath the Pacific - China’s Atomic-Powered Submarines, With Nuclear-Tipped Missiles, Can Reach US Cities, Pacific Rim

by Lawrence Kadish - https://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/22816/china-nuclear-submarines

In an era when artificial intelligence is guiding drones in deadly attacks in Ukraine, it would be understandable to focus exclusively on what that now means on the battlefield.

This would be a grave mistake.

Few in the West have noticed that China just test-launched an intercontinental ballistic missile from a nuclear-powered submarine, using the waters of the South Pacific as their testing site.

The Chinese were quick to announce that the missile carried a dummy warhead, but the implications were clear for everyone who appreciates the enormous strategic threat implied from this underwater weapons test. The timing was also instructive: naval authorities reported that the Chinese had not conducted a similar test in decades.

FUTURE SHOCK: AI Was Trained To Think Like Humans, But New Research Shows Humans Are Now Beginning To Think And Speak Like Artificial Intelligence

Artificial Intelligence was trained to think and act human, but in an incredible irony, it is the humans who are now acting like AI

For years, we were told that artificial intelligence was being trained on us. It consumed our books, our websites, our conversations, our photographs, our articles and our collective human experience, learning how we speak, how we think and how we respond. The machine was built to imitate the man. But now something far stranger is beginning to emerge: the man is beginning to imitate the machine. Researchers are finding measurable evidence that words, sentence structures and linguistic habits favored by AI systems are beginning to appear in human speech and writing. The creation is no longer merely reflecting its creator; the reflection is beginning to reshape the one standing in front of the mirror.

Think about the feedback loop now being constructed in real time. Human beings produce the language that trains artificial intelligence. Artificial intelligence processes that language, reorganizes it and develops recognizable patterns of its own. Millions of people then spend hours every day talking to those systems, writing with them, learning from them and increasingly allowing them to compose their emails, articles, schoolwork, business communications and even personal conversations. Those AI-shaped words are then poured back onto the Internet, where tomorrow’s AI will consume them as training material.

Israel says Hamas security chief captured as strikes kill four during Gaza raid

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has said Israeli special forces captured the head of Hamas's internal security service in a ground operation in Gaza.

Netanyahu said the man, whom he did not name, was "engaged in attempts to restore Hamas's governance in Gaza and in deception concerning the demilitarisation of the Strip".

Israel's military and Shin Bet security service said a special forces unit arrested him in Gaza City on Tuesday and then took him to Israel for questioning.

Israeli air strikes carried out during the raid killed at least four Palestinians, including two children and a woman, medics said. Hamas condemned Israel's actions as a "grave crime" and violation of their ceasefire.

On Tuesday morning, Palestinians in the crowded Katiba area of western Gaza City reported heavy Israeli bombardment, with two vehicles hit and turned to wreckage.

Videos captured chaotic scenes, with the sound of gunfire and the aftermath of strikes.

"A jeep stopped in the middle of the street and started firing indiscriminately left and right. It carried on firing at us like rain for more than 15 minutes," Wafika al-Helou, who lives in a tent in the area, told AFP news agency. "It was terrifying."

Another witness, Mutaz Abu Asr, said there were five or six strikes in less than three minutes.

Iran retaliates after US strikes kill four at wedding party, state media reports

Iran has launched attacks at US military bases in Iraq and Jordan, according to local state media and the Jordanian Armed Forces, after American forces resumed strikes against Iran on Tuesday.

The Iranian Red Crescent said a US missile attack had killed four people, including a child, when shrapnel hit a home where a wedding celebration was taking place in Sirik in southern Iran. More than 50 people were injured, it added. 

US Central Command (Centcom) said US strikes on Iran followed "recent attempted attacks" by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) against commercial shipping in the Strait of Hormuz.

The IRGC said the US would "regret" the strikes. By early Wednesday, it had launched a barrage of ballistic missiles at a US Marine base in Jordan's Aqaba in retaliation for the Sirik attack, according to Iran's semi-official Tasnim news agency.

The Jordanian Armed Forces said it had intercepted 13 ballistic missiles, 10 of which were destroyed, while three fell in remote areas. There were no deaths or injuries as a result of the attack from Iran.
