 Just Like Japan In WWII, Communist China Is Furiously Rehearsing For All-Out War With Taiwan And The United States

Host And Founder Of ‘Now The End Begins’ Geoffrey Grider:
China Rehearses For All-Out War As Satellite Images Reveal Mock US Warships, Fighter Jets, Naval Bases And Taiwanese Government Buildings Built For Target Practice

In 1941, Imperial Japan did not attack Pearl Harbor on a whim. Its pilots trained, its engineers modified torpedoes to operate in the harbor’s shallow water, and its commanders studied how to cripple the United States Pacific Fleet in one overwhelming blow. The strategic objective was simple: knock America backward long enough for Japan to seize territory, establish a defensive perimeter and present Washington with a completed conquest. Pearl Harbor was not intended to conquer America – it was intended to remove America from the battlefield at the decisive opening moment. Here in 2026, China appears to be quite busy doing the exact same thing.

“Thus saith the LORD of hosts, Behold, evil shall go forth from nation to nation, and a great whirlwind shall be raised up from the coasts of the earth.” Jeremiah 25:32 (KJV)

On this episode of the Prophecy News Podcast, satellite imagery reveals today that Beijing is building replicas of American aircraft carriers, Arleigh Burke-class destroyers, fighter aircraft, airfields and critical Taiwanese government buildings. These are not monuments to military history. They are targets. China is constructing physical representations of the enemy it expects to face, then using them to refine missile accuracy, surveillance systems, autonomous weapons and the ability to recognize and destroy specific American and Taiwanese assets.

The modern Chinese equivalent of Pearl Harbor would not necessarily begin with Japanese-style aircraft appearing over Hawaii. It could begin with coordinated missile strikes against American bases in Guam, Japan and the western Pacific; cyberattacks against communications, satellites and infrastructure; strikes against U.S. carriers and destroyers; and a blockade or massive assault around Taiwan. The objective would be to blind, stun and paralyze the United States while Chinese forces move against the island. Just as Japan sought to remove the Pacific Fleet before advancing through Southeast Asia, China must remove—or intimidate—the American military presence that could prevent it from taking Taiwan.

China is building American ships to destroy, American aircraft to target and Taiwanese buildings to assault. The rehearsal area is a warning written in steel, concrete and sand. Beijing is studying how to fight the United States because conquering Taiwan may require defeating America first. Don’t think that’s possible? Today’s Podcast is here to awaken you.

 America’s Greatest Need Has Never Rested In Politics Alone—It Has Always Been Spiritual

 By David Bowen: As America passed the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence, many were asking an important question: What has become of the American Dream?

To mark this historic milestone, Elon University in North Carolina conducted a nationwide survey examining how Americans view their nation, its government, and its future. Polls can fluctuate with current events and political climates, but they often reveal something deeper: the hopes, fears, and convictions of ordinary citizens.

This survey paints a sobering picture. Nearly 69% of Americans believe the signers of the Declaration of Independence would feel more disappointment than pride in modern American democracy. Likewise, 68% believe today’s elected officials compare unfavorably with the leaders of earlier generations. Those are striking numbers, not surprising but still eye-opening.

The Declaration’s signers established a constitutional republic grounded in the conviction that government exists to protect God-given rights. Whether one agrees with every aspect of America’s history or not, it is difficult to ignore the growing dissatisfaction many Americans feel toward their institutions.

 Thirty Thousand People Just Proved The Gospel Still Draws A Crowd

 By PNW Staff: In an age dominated by streaming services, social media algorithms, and endless digital distractions, many have assumed that the era of stadium evangelism has come and gone. Why gather tens of thousands of people in one place when a sermon can be watched on a smartphone?

Yet this past weekend, approximately 30,000 people packed Angel Stadium in Anaheim, California, for the annual Harvest Crusade led by Pastor Greg Laurie. It was a powerful reminder that despite the constant claims that Christianity is fading, people remain deeply hungry for hope, truth, and the transforming message of Jesus Christ.

They weren't there for a political rally, a championship game, or a superstar concert. They came to hear the Gospel.

That matters.

 Saudi Arabia Tells Washington: No Accords Without Netanyahu’s Exit

 By Tamar Stein: Saudi Arabia has quietly delivered a message to Washington that goes far beyond anything Riyadh (shorthand for the Saudi government) has said in public. According to a report in Israel Hayom, representatives of Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman told the White House, the State Department, and members of Congress that Saudi Arabia is prepared to reopen talks on joining the Abraham Accords, but only on two conditions: Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu must no longer serve as prime minister after Israel’s October election, and policies advanced by Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich in Judea and Samaria over the past three years must be reversed.

Two Conditions, One Connected Demand

American officials who received the Saudi message reportedly concluded that Riyadh views the two demands as linked. Saudi officials are said to believe Netanyahu will keep backing Smotrich’s approach in Judea and Samaria for as long as he remains in office, making a deal unworkable while he is prime minister. Smotrich, who holds authority over parts of Israel’s Civil Administration there, has pushed the establishment and recognition of new communities, faster housing approvals, and measures aimed at strengthening long-term Israeli control of the land. After an Israeli planning committee approved more than 2,100 housing units across three communities in June, Smotrich said plainly, “We are continuing to build the Land of Israel in practice.”

 Speaker Johnson Issues Chilling Warning:

 By Pamela Geller: Speaker Johnson just dropped this chilling line to every American to block the rise of communism.

It’s later than you think, dear readers.

“This is not a GAME! Everybody needs to understand these crazy little Mamdanis who are popping up all around the country — they are a DANGER to you and your family. This is not a GAME!”

“If they promise you free stuff, there is far more beneath those promises that even some of these people do not understand themselves.”

 James Talarico: Christians Are ‘Christofascists,’ Islam Is A “Path To Truth”
“My religion has done more damage.

 By Daniel Greenfield: Senate candidate James Talarico has very different ways of talking about Christianity and Islam.

Christians, according to Talarico, are ‘Christofascists’ who are practicing “Christofascism”.

Christianity is far more violent than Islam, according to him, and has caused far more damage to Islam than the other way around.
James Talarico admits that he believes most Texans are ‘Christofascists’ explaining that protecting children from transgender mutilation surgeries is "Christofascism."

 Supreme Court To Hear Case Over Orthodox Jewish Prayer Gatherings In A Private Home

 By Dion J. Pierre: The US Supreme Court has agreed to hear a case arising from an Ohio city’s attempt to enforce its zoning laws against an Orthodox Jewish man who planned to host regular prayer services in his home.

The case does not yet ask the justices to decide whether University Heights violated Daniel Grand’s religious-liberty rights, or whether cities may generally require permits for home prayer gatherings. Instead, the Court will address a threshold question: When officials order someone to stop a religious activity, may he immediately challenge that action in federal court, or must he first complete the government’s permitting and appeals process?
