As we begin to consider the typification of the time of the end in 1989, by the prophetic history of verse ten, it is necessary to drop back into the history of the third generation of both horns of the earth beast. In 1913, the earth beast’s horn of Republicanism began its generation of compromise with the globalist banking system, and in 1919, the horn of true Protestantism began its generation of compromise with the theologians of apostate Protestantism and also the American Medical Association as it surrendered the accreditation of its educational system to the world. Both horns began a compromised relationship with the world that would change the direction of their respective messages from that point onward.

Njengoba siqala ukucabangela ukumelwa ngokwesifaniso kwesikhathi sokuphela ngo-1989, ngomlando wesiprofetho wevesi leshumi, kuyadingeka ukuba sibuyele emuva emlandweni wesizukulwane sesithathu sezimpondo zombili zesilo somhlaba. Ngo-1913, uphondo lwesilo somhlaba lweRepublicanism lwaqala isizukulwane salo sokuyekethisa nohlelo lwamabhange omhlaba wonke, kanti ngo-1919, uphondo lobuProthestani beqiniso lwaqala isizukulwane salo sokuyekethisa nezazi zenkolo zobuProthestani obuhlubukayo kanye ne-American Medical Association, ngesikhathi lunikela emhlabeni ukugunyazwa kohlelo lwalo lwezemfundo. Zombili izimpondo zaqala ubudlelwane bokuyekethisa nezwe obabuzoguqula isiqondiso semiyalezo yazo ngayinye kusukela kulelo qophelo kuqhubeke.

In that history the starting point for the king of the north, and the king of the south of the last days also reached a turning point. The Miracle of Fatima occurred on October 13, 1917, in Fatima, Portugal. It was the culmination of a series of Marian apparitions witnessed by three young shepherd children: Lucia dos Santos and her cousins Francisco and Jacinta Marto. According to the accounts provided by the children, the Virgin Mary, identified as Our Lady of Fatima, appeared to them on the 13th day of each month from May to October 1917.

Kulo mlando indawo yokuqalisa yenkosi yasenyakatho, kanye neyenkosi yaseningizimu yezinsuku zokugcina, nayo yafinyelela esigabeni sokuguquka. Isimangaliso saseFatima senzeka ngo-13 Okthoba 1917 eFatima, ePortugal. Saba yisicongo sochungechunge lokuvela kukaMariya olwabonwa izingane ezintathu ezincane ezingabelusi: uLucia dos Santos kanye nabazala bakhe uFrancisco noJacinta Marto. Ngokwemibiko eyanikezwa yilezi zingane, iNcasakazi uMariya, eyaziwa ngokuthi iNkosikazi Yethu yaseFatima, yabonakala kuzo ngosuku lwe-13 lwenyanga ngayinye kusukela ngoMeyi kuya ku-Okthoba 1917.

During the final apparition on October 13, 1917, tens of thousands of people gathered at the Cova da Iria, near Fatima, expecting to witness a miracle as predicted by the children. According to the witnesses, the sun appeared to change colors, spin, and dance in the sky. This event came to be known as the Miracle of the Sun or the Miracle of Fatima.

Ngesikhathi sokubonakala kokugcina ngo-Okthoba 13, 1917, amashumi ezinkulungwane zabantu abuthana eCova da Iria, eduze neFatima, belindele ukufakaza isimangaliso njengoba sabikezelwa izingane. Ngokobufakazi bofakazi, ilanga labonakala lishintsha imibala, lijikeleza, futhi lidansa esibhakabhakeni. Lesi sehlakalo sabe sesaziwa ngokuthi Isimangaliso Selanga noma Isimangaliso saseFatima.

The Miracle of Fatima is a significant event in Catholic history and devotion, and it has been the subject of much study, debate, and religious interpretation over the years. The events at Fatima have had a lasting impact on popular piety, Marian devotion, and the interpretation of apocalyptic themes within the Catholic Church.

Isimangaliso saseFatima siyisigameko esibalulekile emlandweni nasekuzinikeleni kweSonto lamaKatolika, futhi eminyakeni edlule siye saba yindaba yocwaningo oluningi, impikiswano, nokuhunyushwa kwezenkolo. Izehlakalo zaseFatima zibe nomthelela oqhubekayo ekuhlonipheni okuthandwayo kwabantu, ekuzinikeleni kuMariya, nasekuhunyushweni kwezindikimba zesiprofetho sesikhathi sokuphela ngaphakathi kweSonto lamaKatolika.

The Bolshevik Revolution occurred in Russia on November 7, 1917, when Bolshevik forces, led by Vladimir Lenin and the Bolshevik Party, seized key government buildings and infrastructure in Petrograd (now Saint Petersburg). This event marked the culmination of the Russian Revolution of 1917, which had begun with the February Revolution earlier in the year that led to the abdication of Tsar Nicholas II and the establishment of a provisional government.

INguquko YamaBolshevik yenzeka eRussia ngoNovemba 7, 1917, lapho amabutho amaBolshevik, eholwa nguVladimir Lenin kanye neQembu lamaBolshevik, ethatha izakhiwo ezisemqoka zikahulumeni kanye nengqalasizinda ePetrograd (manje eyiSaint Petersburg). Lesi senzakalo saba uphawu lokuphetha kweNguquko YaseRussia ka-1917, eyayiqale ngeNguquko kaFebhuwari ekuqaleni kwalowo nyaka, eyaholela ekudilikeni esihlalweni sobukhosi kukaTsar Nicholas II nasekusungulweni kukahulumeni wesikhashana.

During the Revolution, the Bolsheviks successfully overthrew the provisional government and established Soviet control over Russia. The Bolsheviks proclaimed the establishment of a socialist state and began implementing their revolutionary program, including the nationalization of industry, land redistribution, and the withdrawal of Russia from World War I. The October Revolution ultimately led to the creation of the Soviet Union and had profound and far-reaching consequences for Russia and the world, shaping the course of 20th-century history.

Ngesikhathi seNguquko, amaBolshevik aphumelela ekuketuleni uhulumeni wesikhashana futhi amisa ukulawula kweSoviet phezu kweRussia. AmaBolshevik amemezela ukusungulwa kombuso wobusoshiyali futhi aqala ukusebenzisa uhlelo lwawo lwenguquko, okuhlanganisa ukwenziwa kwezimboni impahla yombuso, ukwabiwa kabusha komhlaba, kanye nokuhoxiswa kweRussia eMpini Yezwe I. INguquko ka-Okthoba yagcina iholele ekudalweni kweSoviet Union futhi yaba nemiphumela ejulile nebanzi kakhulu eRussia nasemhlabeni, yabumba inkambo yomlando wekhulu lama-20.

Jesus illustrates the end with the beginning, and in order to fully see the king of the north and the king of the south of the last days, it is necessary to understand their beginnings. The literal kings of the south and the north that are identified in Daniel chapter eleven are defined as the power that rules the literal area of Egypt as the king of the south, and the power that rules the literal geographical area associated with Babylon as the king of the north.

UJesu ufanekisa ukuphela ngesiqalo, futhi ukuze kubonakale ngokugcwele inkosi yasenyakatho nenkosi yaseningizimu yezinsuku zokugcina, kuyadingeka ukuqonda iziqalo zazo. Amakhosi angokoqobo aseningizimu nasenyakatho akhonjiswe esahlukweni seshumi nanye sikaDaniyeli achazwa njengamandla abusayo endaweni yangokoqobo yaseGibhithe njengenkosi yaseningizimu, kanye namandla abusayo endaweni yangokoqobo yokuma kwezwe ehlotshaniswa neBhabhiloni njengenkosi yasenyakatho.

Literal prophecy transitioned to spiritual prophecy in the time of the cross, when ancient literal Israel was transitioning to modern spiritual Israel. Literal pagan Rome trampled down literal Jerusalem for three and a half literal years from 67 AD unto 70 AD, and spiritual papal Rome trampled down spiritual Jerusalem for three and a half spiritual years.

Isiprofetho esingokoqobo sashintshela esiprofethweni esingokomoya ngesikhathi sesiphambano, lapho u-Israyeli wasendulo ongokoqobo ayesuka eguqukela ku-Israyeli wanamuhla ongokomoya. IRoma yobuqaba engokoqobo yanyathela iJerusalema engokoqobo iminyaka emithathu nengxenye engokoqobo kusukela ngonyaka ka-67 AD kwaze kwaba ngonyaka ka-70 AD, futhi iRoma yobupapa engokomoya yanyathela iJerusalema engokomoya iminyaka emithathu nengxenye engokomoya.

Spiritual Babylon is identified in Revelation chapter seventeen, as the whore who commits fornication with the kings of the earth. Spiritual Egypt is identified in Revelation chapter eleven as atheistic France. The modern manifestations of the spiritual king of the north, that received its deadly wound at the time of the end in 1798 and then retaliated against the modern manifestation of the spiritual king of the south at the time of the end in 1989, are both represented in verse forty of Daniel eleven. Both powers have their origins in their last day manifestation in the 1917 to 1918 time frame, which is the same time frame as the generation of compromise for both horns of the earth beast. Those beginnings must be recognized to rightly apply the endings. The beginnings of the last day kings of the north and south both start at the French Revolution.

IBhabhiloni elingokomoya lichazwe kusAmbulo isahluko seshumi nesikhombisa njengaleso sifebe esifeba namakhosi omhlaba. IGibhithe elingokomoya lichazwe kusAmbulo isahluko seshumi nanye njengeFransi engakholelwa ebukhoneni bukaNkulunkulu. Izibonakaliso zesimanje zenkosi yasenyakatho engokomoya, eyamukela inxeba layo elibulalayo ngesikhathi sokuphela ngo-1798, yase ibuyisela ukuhlasela esibonakalisweni sesimanje senkosi yaseningizimu engokomoya ngesikhathi sokuphela ngo-1989, zombili zimelelwe evesini lamashumi amane likaDaniyeli ishumi nanye. Womabili la mandla anomsuka ezibonakalisweni zawo zezinsuku zokugcina esikhathini sika-1917 kuya ku-1918, okuyisona kanye isikhathi sesizukulwane sokuyekethisa sezimpondo zombili zesilo somhlaba. Lezo ziqalo kumelwe ziqashelwe ukuze iziphetho zisetshenziswe ngokufanele. Iziqalo zamakhosi asenyakatho naseningizimu ezinsukwini zokugcina zombili ziqala ngeNguquko yaseFransi.

“In the sixteenth century the Reformation, presenting an open Bible to the people, had sought admission to all the countries of Europe. Some nations welcomed it with gladness, as a messenger of Heaven. In other lands the papacy succeeded to a great extent in preventing its entrance; and the light of Bible knowledge, with its elevating influences, was almost wholly excluded. In one country, though the light found entrance, it was not comprehended by the darkness. For centuries, truth and error struggled for the mastery. At last the evil triumphed, and the truth of Heaven was thrust out. ‘This is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light.’ John 3:19. The nation was left to reap the results of the course which she had chosen. The restraint of God’s Spirit was removed from a people that had despised the gift of His grace. Evil was permitted to come to maturity. And all the world saw the fruit of willful rejection of the light.

“Ngekhulu lekhulu leshumi nesithupha iNguquko yenkolo, iletha iBhayibheli elivulekile kubantu, yayifune ukwamukelwa kuwo wonke amazwe aseYurophu. Ezinye izizwe zayamukela ngentokozo, njengesithunywa saseZulwini. Kwamanye amazwe ubupapa baphumelela ngezinga elikhulu ukuvimbela ukungena kwayo; kwase kuthi ukukhanya kolwazi lweBhayibheli, kanye nemithelela yalo ephakamisayo, kwacishe kwavinjelwa ngokuphelele. Kwelinye izwe, nakuba ukukhanya kwangena, ubumnyama abuzange bukukuqonde. Kwaphela amakhulu eminyaka iqiniso nephutha kulwela ukubusa. Ekugcineni ububi banqoba, neqiniso laseZulwini laxoshwa. ‘Nansi ukulahlwa, ukuthi ukukhanya kufikile ezweni, abantu bathanda ubumnyama kunokukhanya.’ Johane 3:19. Isizwe sashiywa ukuba sivune imiphumela yendlela esasiyikhethile. Ukuvinjelwa kukaMoya kaNkulunkulu kwasuswa kubantu ababedelele isipho somusa waKhe. Ububi bavunyelwa ukuba buvuthwe ngokuphelele. Umhlaba wonke wasubona isithelo sokwenqaba ngamabomu ukukhanya.”

“The war against the Bible, carried forward for so many centuries in France, culminated in the scenes of the Revolution. That terrible outbreaking was but the legitimate result of Rome’s suppression of the Scriptures. It presented the most striking illustration which the world has ever witnessed of the working out of the papal policy—an illustration of the results to which for more than a thousand years the teaching of the Roman Church had been tending.

“Impi emelene neBhayibheli, eqhutshwe phambili amakhulu amaningi eminyaka eFrance, yafinyelela esiphethweni sayo ezigamekweni zeNguquko. Lokho kuqubuka okwesabekayo kwakungelutho ngaphandle komphumela ofanele wokucindezelwa kweMibhalo Engcwele yiRoma. Kwabonakalisa umfanekiso ogqame kakhulu izwe elake lawubona wokusebenza nokugcwaliseka kwenqubomgomo yobupapa—umfanekiso wemiphumela imfundiso yeSonto laseRoma eyayiqonde kuyo isikhathi esingaphezu kweminyaka eyinkulungwane.”

“The suppression of the Scriptures during the period of papal supremacy was foretold by the prophets; and the Revelator points also to the terrible results that were to accrue especially to France from the domination of the ‘man of sin.’” The Great Controversy, 265, 266.

“Ukucindezelwa kweMibhalo eNgcwele ngesikhathi sobukhosi bobupapa kwabikezelwa ngabaprofethi; futhi noMambuli ukhomba futhi emiphumeleni eyesabekayo eyayizovela, ikakhulukazi eFrance, ngenxa yokubusa ‘komuntu wesono.’” The Great Controversy, 265, 266.

The French Revolution was produced by the suppression of the Scriptures “during the period of papal supremacy.” The birth of atheism, which was to become the archenemy of the papacy, was brought about by the papacy itself. The French Revolution took place from 1789 to 1799, but the atheistic revolutionary spirit that began in France continued to spread across Europe and beyond. One-hundred eighteen years after the end of the revolution in France, the Russian Revolution began in Russia. The revolution of atheism that began in France, ended in Russia, and in 1917 Russia became the prophetic representative of the nation symbolized by the atheism of Egypt. The dragon power represented as the king of the south had migrated from France to Russia.

INguquko YaseFulansi yabangelwa ukucindezelwa kwemiBhalo “ngesikhathi sobukhosi bobuPapa.” Ukuzalwa kokungakholelwa ebukhoneni bukaNkulunkulu, okwakuyoba yisitha esikhulu sobuPapa, kwalethwa khona ubona ubuPapa uqobo. INguquko YaseFulansi yenzeka kusukela ngo-1789 kuya ku-1799, kodwa umoya wenguquko ongakholelwa ebukhoneni bukaNkulunkulu, owaqala eFulansi, waqhubeka ukusakazeka kulo lonke elaseYurophu nangale kwalo. Iminyaka eyikhulu neshumi nesishiyagalombili emva kokuphela kwenguquko eFulansi, iNguquko YaseRussia yaqala eRussia. Inguquko yokungakholelwa ebukhoneni bukaNkulunkulu eyaqala eFulansi, yaphelela eRussia, futhi ngo-1917 iRussia yaba ummeleli wesiprofetho wesizwe esifanekiselwa ukungakholelwa ebukhoneni bukaNkulunkulu kwaseGibhithe. Amandla kadrako amelwe njengenkosi yaseningizimu ayesesuke eFulansi aya eRussia.

The revolution in France was represented politically and prophetically by Napoleon Bonaparte, and in that sense, Napoleon represents the first leader of a nation established in a revolution brought about by the atheism of Egypt. The narcissism of Napoleon is fitly repeated by the narcissism of Putin.

Inguquko yaseFrance yamelwa kwezombusazwe nasekuprofethweni nguNapoleon Bonaparte, futhi ngalowo mqondo, uNapoleon umele umholi wokuqala wesizwe esasungulwa ngenguquko eyaletshwa ukungakholelwa kuNkulunkulu kwaseGibhithe. Ukuzithanda ngokweqile kukaNapoleon kuphindaphindwa ngokufaneleyo ukuzithanda ngokweqile kukaPutin.

Napoleon was keenly aware of the power of imagery and propaganda, as is Putin, who was a former KGB officer. The KGB specializes in propaganda. Napoleon used portraiture as a means of projecting his authority, power, and image of leadership to the public. He commissioned portraits from some of the most celebrated artists of his time, including Jacques-Louis David, Antoine-Jean Gros, and Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres, among others.

UNapoleon wayekuqonda kakhulu amandla ezithombe nenkulumo-ze, njengoba kunjalo nangoPutin, owayeyisikhulu sangaphambili se-KGB. I-KGB ikhethekile emkhakheni wenkulumo-ze. UNapoleon wasebenzisa imidwebo yezithombe njengendlela yokwethulela umphakathi igunya lakhe, amandla akhe, nomfanekiso wakhe wobuholi. Wathuma ukuba kwenziwe izithombe zakhe kwabanye babaculi ababedume kakhulu besikhathi sakhe, kuhlanganisa uJacques-Louis David, uAntoine-Jean Gros, noJean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres, nabanye.

These portraits depicted Napoleon in various poses and settings, ranging from official state portraits to more informal scenes. They served not only as personal mementos for Napoleon himself but also as tools for spreading his image and influence both domestically and internationally. Putin has accomplished the identical work for himself, with a multitude of pictures of himself in settings that rival any of the modern influencers on the Internet.

Lezi zithombe ziveza uNapoleon ezimweni nasezindaweni ezihlukahlukene, kusukela ezithombeni ezisemthethweni zombuso kuya ezigcawini ezingakahleleki kakhulu. Azizange zisebenze kuphela njengezikhumbuzo zomuntu siqu zikaNapoleon uqobo, kodwa futhi njengezindlela zokusabalalisa isithombe sakhe nomthelela wakhe ngaphakathi ezweni nakwamanye amazwe. UPutin uye wenza umsebenzi ofanayo ncamashi ngaye uqobo, enezithombe zakhe eziningi ezisezimweni ezingancintisana nanoma yimuphi wabathonya besimanje kuyi-Internet.

At the beginning of the French Revolution the king, his family and staff were overthrown and executed. At the beginning of the Russian Revolution the Czar, his family and staff were overthrown and executed. The revolution that began in France culminated in Russia. The French Revolution is the subject of the prophecy of chapter eleven of Revelation, and therefore the French Revolution is subject to the rules of prophetic interpretation. Jesus always illustrates the end of a thing with the beginning of a thing, so the Russian Revolution is the end of the French Revolution.

Ekuqaleni kweNguquko yaseFrance inkosi, umndeni wayo nabasebenzi bayo baketulwa, base bebulawa. Ekuqaleni kweNguquko yaseRussia iTsar, umndeni wayo nabasebenzi bayo baketulwa, base bebulawa. Inguquko eyaqala eFrance yaphelela eRussia. INguquko yaseFrance iyona okukhulunywa ngayo esiprofethweni sesahluko seshumi nanye seSambulo, ngakho-ke iNguquko yaseFrance ingaphansi kwemithetho yokuchazwa kwesiprofetho. UJesu uhlale ebonakalisa ukuphela kwento ngesiqalo sento, ngakho iNguquko yaseRussia iyisiphetho seNguquko yaseFrance.

Vladimir Putin represents the last leader of a nation established in a revolution brought about with the atheism of Egypt. The first leader of Russia was Vladimir Lenin. The name “Vladimir” is of Slavic origin and is composed of two elements: “vlad” and “mir.” “Vlad” is derived from the Slavic root “vladeti,” which means “to rule” or to wield power. “Mir” means “world”. The first Vladimir (Lenin) typifies the last Vladimir (Putin), who is also typified by the first leader of the revolution of atheism (Napoleon).

UVladimir Putin umelela umholi wokugcina wesizwe esasungulwa ngoguquko olwalulethwe ukungakholelwa kuNkulunkulu kweGibhithe. Umholi wokuqala waseRussia kwakunguVladimir Lenin. Igama elithi “Vladimir” livela emsukeni wamaSlav futhi lakhiwe yizakhi ezimbili: “vlad” kanye no-“mir.” “Vlad” lisuselwa empandeni yesiSlav ethi “vladeti,” esho ukuthi “ukubusa” noma ukusebenzisa amandla. “Mir” lisho “izwe”. UVladimir wokuqala (uLenin) uyisifanekiso sikaVladimir wokugcina (uPutin), naye futhi oyisifanekiso esiboniswa ngumholi wokuqala woguquko lokungakholelwa kuNkulunkulu (uNapoleon).

After Napoleon’s defeat in the War of the Sixth Coalition and the Treaty of Fontainebleau in April 1814, he abdicated the throne of France and was exiled to the Mediterranean island of Elba. He was granted sovereignty over the island and allowed to retain the title of Emperor, albeit in a much-reduced capacity. Napoleon spent around ten months on Elba, during which he made plans to return to power in France. Following his escape from Elba and his brief return to power in France during the Hundred Days, Napoleon was decisively defeated at the Battle of Waterloo in June 1815. After this defeat the Allied powers, particularly Great Britain, were determined to prevent Napoleon from causing any further trouble. Consequently, he was exiled again, this time to the remote island of Saint Helena in the South Atlantic. Napoleon spent the remainder of his life in exile on Saint Helena until his death in 1821.

Ngemva kokwehlulwa kukaNapoleon eMpini yoMbimbi lwesiThupha kanye neSivumelwano saseFontainebleau ngo-Ephreli 1814, wasula esihlalweni sobukhosi saseFrance futhi wadingiselwa esiqhingini sase-Elba oLwandle iMedithera. Wanikezwa ubukhosi phezu kwaleso siqhingi futhi wavunyelwa ukugcina isihloko sokuba nguMbusi, nakuba amandla akhe ayese ancishiswe kakhulu. UNapoleon wachitha cishe izinyanga eziyishumi e-Elba, lapho enza khona amalungiselelo okubuyela embusweni eFrance. Ngemva kokuphunyuka kwakhe e-Elba kanye nokubuyela kwakhe isikhashana emandleni eFrance phakathi neZinsuku Eziyikhulu, uNapoleon wehlulwa ngokuphelele eMpini yaseWaterloo ngoJuni 1815. Ngemva kwalokhu kwehlulwa, amazwe oMbimbi, ikakhulukazi iGreat Britain, ayezimisele ukuvimbela uNapoleon ekubangeleni noma iyiphi enye inkinga. Ngenxa yalokho, waphinde wadingiswa, kulokhu wayiswa esiqhingini esikude saseSaint Helena eNingizimu ye-Atlantic. UNapoleon wachitha yonke insalela yokuphila kwakhe ekudingisweni eSaint Helena kwaze kwaba sekufeni kwakhe ngo-1821.

Putin is a representative of the old guard KGB. The KGB was the main security agency and intelligence agency of the Soviet Union from 1954 until its dissolution in 1991. It was responsible for internal security, counterintelligence, and intelligence gathering, both domestically and internationally. The KGB was known for its extensive network of spies, surveillance operations, and its role in maintaining the Communist regime’s control over the population. Vladimir Putin was a member of the KGB (Committee for State Security), the main security and intelligence agency of the Soviet Union.

UPutin ungummeleli wesigungu esidala se-KGB. I-KGB yayiyinhlangano eyinhloko yezokuphepha kanye neyobunhloli yeSoviet Union kusukela ngo-1954 kwaze kwaba ukuhlakazwa kwayo ngo-1991. Yayinesibopho sokuphepha kwangaphakathi, sobunhloli obuphikisana nobunye ubunhloli, kanye nokuqoqwa kolwazi lobunhloli, kokubili ngaphakathi ezweni nasemazweni angaphandle. I-KGB yayaziwa ngenethiwekhi yayo ebanzi yezinhloli, imisebenzi yayo yokuqapha, kanye nendima yayo ekugcineni ukubusa kombuso wamaKhomanisi phezu kwabantu. UVladimir Putin wayeyilungu le-KGB (Committee for State Security), inhlangano eyinhloko yezokuphepha neyobunhloli yeSoviet Union.

Putin joined the KGB in 1975 after graduating from Leningrad State University. Putin worked for the KGB until the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991, after which he entered politics and eventually became the President of Russia in 2000. His background in the KGB has had a significant influence on his approach to governance and foreign policy. Napoleon’s first exile on the Island of Elba, represents the history of 1991 until the year 2000, when the philosophy of the KGB returned. When Putin is eventually defeated, as represented in verses thirteen to fifteen, that second defeat (the first being 1989), is typified by Waterloo and Napoleon’s second exile, where he died.

UPutin wajoyina i-KGB ngo-1975 ngemva kokuphothula eNyuvesi Yombuso yaseLeningrad. UPutin wasebenza ku-KGB kwaze kwaba ukuwa kweSoviet Union ngo-1991, okwalandela lapho engena kwezombusazwe futhi ekugcineni waba nguMongameli waseRussia ngo-2000. Isizinda sakhe ku-KGB sibe nomthelela omkhulu endleleni yakhe yokubusa kanye nenqubomgomo yakhe yezangaphandle. Ukudingiswa kokuqala kukaNapoleon esiQhingini sase-Elba kumele umlando osukela ku-1991 kuze kube unyaka ka-2000, lapho ifilosofi ye-KGB yabuya khona. Lapho uPutin ekugcineni ehlulwa, njengoba kumelwe amavesi ethi ishumi nantathu kuya kweleshumi nanhlanu, lokho kuhlulwa kwesibili (okokuqala kube ngo-1989), kufanekiswa yiWaterloo kanye nokudingiswa kwesibili kukaNapoleon, lapho afela khona.

Napoleon delivered the deadly wound to the papacy in 1798 and 1799. In 1799 the French Revolution ended in France, but by 1917 it had reached Russia in the Bolshevik Revolution. In 1917 the miracle of Fatima took place in Portugal, and the three children who supposedly communicated with Mary and Joseph were given three secret messages. The three messages were secret in the sense they were only to be read by the pope, the king of the north. The messages directed the pope to call a special meeting with the leaders of the Catholic Church and hold a special ceremony in order to dedicate Russia, which had just become communist Russia the year before, to the virgin Mary.

UNapoleon wanikeza ubupapa inxeba elibulalayo ngo-1798 nango-1799. Ngo-1799 iNguquko yaseFrance yaphela eFrance, kodwa ngo-1917 yayisifinyelele eRussia eNguqukweni yamaBolshevik. Ngo-1917 isimangaliso saseFatima senzeka ePortugal, futhi izingane ezintathu okwakuthiwa zaxhumana noMariya noJosefa zanikezwa imilayezo emithathu eyimfihlo. Le milayezo emithathu yayiyimfihlo ngomqondo wokuthi yayifanele ifundwe upapa kuphela, inkosi yasenyakatho. Le milayezo yayala upapa ukuba abize umhlangano okhethekile nabaholi beBandla lamaKatolika futhi enze umkhosi okhethekile ukuze anikele iRussia, eyayisanda kuba yiRussia yamaKhomanisi ngonyaka owedlule, entombini enguMariya.

The messages contained a warning that if the pope refused to follow through on the command to dedicate Russia to Mary, the world would suffer another world war (the first world war was to end the month after the miracle). The messages of Fatima became a structure for conservative Catholic prophetic interpretation. It identified a struggle within the Catholic church between conservative Catholicism, represented by pope John Paul II and the first Vatican council, and Liberal Catholicism represented by the current “woke-pope” and the second Vatican council.

Imiyalezo yayiqukethe isexwayiso sokuthi, uma upapa enqaba ukulalela umyalo wokunikela iRussia kuMariya, umhlaba wawuzobhekana nenye impi yomhlaba (impi yokuqala yomhlaba yayizophela ngenyanga eyalandela isimangaliso). Imiyalezo yaseFatima yaba yisisekelo sokuhunyushwa kwesiprofetho samaKhatholika alondolozayo. Yahlonza umzabalazo ngaphakathi kweBandla lamaKhatholika phakathi kobuKhatholika obulondolozayo, obumelwe upapa uJohn Paul II noMkhandlu Wokuqala waseVatican, nobuKhatholika obukhululekile obumelwe “upapa ovukele ukuqonda okujwayelekile” wamanje noMkhandlu Wesibili waseVatican.

In the messages of Fatima the “good pope”, was the “white pope”, and the “bad pope”, was the “black pope”. The good pope, Pope John Paul II, was the conservative pope who identified the Virgin of Fatima as his guiding idol, and the bad pope is the woke-pope, who also rejects any messages from the so-called virgin Mary. When you visit the shrine in Fatima, Portugal as you enter the premises the entrance is set between two giant statues of a black pope on one side and a white pope on the other side, thus representing the internal struggle identified in the Fatima prophecies.

Emilayezweni yaseFatima “upapa omuhle” wayengu “upapa omhlophe”, kanti “upapa omubi” wayengu “upapa omnyama”. Upapa omuhle, uPapa John Paul II, wayengupapa olandela umgomo wokugcina amasiko nowakhomba iNcasakazi yaseFatima njengesithixo sakhe esimholayo, kanti upapa omubi ungupapa we-woke, naye owalahla noma yimiphi imiyalezo evela kulowo obizwa ngokuthi yiNcasakazi uMariya. Lapho uvakashela ithempeli laseFatima, ePortugal, njengoba ungena emagcekeni alo, umnyango wokungena ubekwe phakathi kwezithombe ezinkulu ezimbili, ngakolunye uhlangothi kukhona esikapapa omnyama kanti ngakolunye kukhona esikapapa omhlophe, ngaleyo ndlela kumelwe umzabalazo wangaphakathi okhonjwe eziprofethweni zaseFatima.

The other element of the three secret messages of Fatima was its emphasis on the warfare of Catholicism (the king of the north), and atheism (the king of the south). Without recognizing that the warfare of Catholicism and atheistic Russia is a subject of the satanic prophecy, which directs a large percentage of Catholicism, it is difficult, if not impossible to understand the support which the Catholic church provided to Nazi Germany during World War Two.

Esinye isici semiyalezo emithathu eyimfihlo yaseFatima kwakuwukugcizelela kwayo impi phakathi kobuKhatholika (inkosi yasenyakatho), nokungakholelwa ebukhoneni bukaNkulunkulu (inkosi yaseningizimu). Ngaphandle kokuqaphela ukuthi impi yobuKhatholika neRussia engakholelwa kuNkulunkulu iyisihloko sesiprofetho sikaSathane, esiqondisa ingxenye enkulu yobuKhatholika, kunzima, uma kungenzeki nhlobo, ukuqonda ukweseka iBandla lamaKhatholika elakunikeza iJalimane lamaNazi phakathi neMpi Yezwe Yesibili.

The Battle of Leningrad, which lasted from September 8, 1941 to January 27, 1944 during World War Two, was one of the longest and most brutal sieges in history. The Battle of Stalingrad, which occurred from August 23, 1942 to February 2, 1943, is often regarded as the bloodiest and most significant battle of World War Two. It resulted in immense casualties on both sides, with estimates of over 2 million total casualties, including deaths, wounded, and captured soldiers. The Battle of Stalingrad also marked a turning point in the war, as it resulted in a decisive Soviet victory over the German Army and led to the eventual defeat of Nazi Germany.

Impi yaseLeningrad, eyaqhubeka kusukela ngoSepthemba 8, 1941 kuya kuJanuwari 27, 1944 phakathi neMpi Yezwe Yesibili, yayingenye yokuvinjezelwa okude kakhulu nokunonya kakhulu emlandweni. Impi yaseStalingrad, eyenzeka kusukela ngo-Agasti 23, 1942 kuya kuFebhuwari 2, 1943, ivame ukubhekwa njengempi eyachitha igazi eliningi kakhulu futhi ebaluleke kakhulu eMpi Yezwe Yesibili. Yaholela ekulahlekelweni okukhulu kakhulu ezinhlangothini zombili, lapho izilinganiso zikhomba inani elingaphezu kwezigidi ezi-2 labalahlekelwa ngokuphelele, kuhlanganisa abafileyo, abalimele, namasosha athunjwayo. Impi yaseStalingrad yaphawula futhi iphuzu lokuguquka empini, njengoba yaholela ekunqobeni okuqinile kweSoviet phezu kweButho laseJalimane futhi yaholela ekunqotshweni kokugcina kweJalimane yamaNazi.

Without recognizing that Nazi Germany’s warfare against Russia, particularly in the two battles just cited, it is difficult to understand the role of Germany as the secret ally of the Catholic Church. Without the understanding of the premises of a spiritual war between Catholicism that was motivated by the satanic prophecy of Mary of Fatima, against the atheism of Russia, and thereafter the Communist Soviet Union, the logic for Catholicism secretly hiding and then transporting Nazi war criminals around the globe post-World War Two is missed. The Nazi’s were Catholicism’s proxy army in their struggle against Russia.

Ngaphandle kokuqaphela ukuthi impi eyalwiwa iJalimane lamaNazi neRussia, ikakhulukazi ezimpini ezimbili ezisanda kucashunwa, kunzima ukuqonda indima yeJalimane njengomfelandawonye oyimfihlo weBandla lamaKatolika. Ngaphandle kokuqonda izisekelo zempi yomoya phakathi kobuKatolika—obabugqugquzelwa yisiprofetho sikaMariya waseFatima esivela kuSathane—nokungakholelwa kuNkulunkulu kweRussia, bese kamuva kweSoviet Union yamaKhomanisi, kuyaphuthelwa ukuqondakala kwesizathu sokuba ubuKatolika bufihle ngasese bese buthutha izigebengu zempi zamaNazi emhlabeni wonke emva kweMpi Yezwe Yesibili. AmaNazi ayeyibutho elimele ubuKatolika emzabalazweni wabo wokulwa neRussia.

It is in this prophetic logic that Putin, the head of atheistic Russia, is involved in a war in the Ukraine, whose leaders are openly known to be Nazi’s. The ground troops of Fatima’s war against atheism from World War Two and onward is fascism, and Nazism. Of course, even though this reality of the leaders of the Ukrainian government is well-documented, the modern manifestation of Hitler’s Reich Ministry of Public Enlightenment and Propaganda (the mainstream media), has covered these facts as best they could.

Kungaphakathi kwalo mqondo wesiprofetho lapho uPutin, inhloko yeRussia engakholelwa kuNkulunkulu, ebambe iqhaza empini yase-Ukraine, abaholi bayo abaziwa obala ukuthi bangamaNazi. Amasosha asemhlabathini empi kaFatima yokulwa nokungakholelwa kuNkulunkulu kusukela eMpini Yezwe Yesibili kuqhubeke ayifashizimu nobuNazi. Yebo-ke, nakuba leli qiniso ngabaholi bakahulumeni wase-Ukraine libhalwe kahle ngemibhalo, ukubonakaliswa kwanamuhla koMnyango kaHitler Wokukhanyiselwa Komphakathi Nenkulumo-ze (abezindaba abavamile), kufihle lawa maqiniso ngangokunokwenzeka.

The name “Ukraine” is derived from the Slavic word “ukraina,” which means “borderland” or “the edge.” The term historically referred to the border regions of the Kievan Rus’, the medieval state that preceded modern-day Ukraine, and is situated on the crossroads between Eastern Europe and Eurasia. Throughout history, it has served as a meeting point between various cultures, civilizations, and empires, including the Byzantine Empire, the Ottoman Empire, the Russian Empire, and others. Its strategic location made it a frontier region that experienced significant cultural, political, and military interactions. During the medieval period, Ukraine was the border region of the Kievan Rus’, which was a powerful state that encompassed parts of modern-day Ukraine, Russia, and Belarus. As the Kievan Rus’ expanded and contracted over time, its borders often shifted, and Ukraine remained on the periphery of the state.

Igama elithi “Ukraine” lisuselwa egameni lesiSlavic elithi “ukraina,” elisho “izwe elisemngceleni” noma “unqenqema.” Ngokomlando leli gama lalibhekisela ezifundeni ezisemingceleni zeKievan Rus’, umbuso waseNkathini Ephakathi owandulela i-Ukraine yanamuhla, futhi osezimpambanweni phakathi kweMpumalanga Yurophu ne-Eurasia. Kuwo wonke umlando, liye laba yindawo yokuhlangana phakathi kwamasiko ahlukahlukene, impucuko, nemibuso, kuhlanganise noMbuso WaseByzantium, uMbuso Wase-Ottoman, uMbuso WaseRussia, nabanye. Isikhundla sayo esibalulekile ngokwecebo senza yaba yisifunda esisemngceleni esaba nokuxhumana okukhulu ngokwamasiko, kwezombusazwe, nakwezempi. Ngesikhathi seNkathi Ephakathi, i-Ukraine yayiyisifunda esisemngceleni seKievan Rus’, owayengumbuso onamandla owawuhlanganisa izingxenye ze-Ukraine yanamuhla, iRussia, neBelarus. Njengoba iKievan Rus’ yanda futhi yehla ngokuhamba kwesikhathi, imingcele yayo yayivame ukuguquka, futhi i-Ukraine yahlala isemaphethelweni ombuso.

After the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1989, as represented in verse ten, verses eleven and twelve identify a battle where the king of the south retaliates and prevails over the king of the north. That battle was fought at Raphia, which was the borderline of the domains of the king of the south and the king of the north.

Ngemva kokuwa kweSoviet Union ngo-1989, njengoba kumelwe evesini leshumi, amavesi eshumi nanye neshumi nambili akhomba impi lapho inkosi yaseningizimu iziphindiselela khona futhi inqobe inkosi yasenyakatho. Leyo mpi yalwiwa eRaphia, eyayiyingcele yezifunda zombuso zenkosi yaseningizimu nenkosi yasenyakatho.

The Battle of Raphia, which took place in 217 BC, comes from the name of the town near which the battle occurred. Raphia was a town located in the coastal region of ancient Palestine, near the border between the Ptolemaic Kingdom of Egypt and the Seleucid Empire. At the time of the battle the border between the Ptolemaic Kingdom of Egypt, ruled by King Ptolemy IV Philopator, and the Seleucid Empire, ruled by King Antiochus III, was located in the vicinity of Raphia. The battle was fought near this border region as both sides sought to assert control over strategic territories in the Levant.

Impi YaseRaphia, eyenzeka ngo-217 BC, ithathwa egameni lomuzi eduze kwawo impi yenzeka khona. IRaphia yayingumuzi owawusemngceleni wasogwini wePalestina lasendulo, eduze komngcele phakathi koMbuso wakwaPtolemy waseGibhithe noMbuso wakwaSeleucus. Ngesikhathi sempi, umngcele phakathi koMbuso wakwaPtolemy waseGibhithe, owawubuswa yiNkosi uPtolemy IV Philopator, noMbuso wakwaSeleucus, owawubuswa yiNkosi u-Antiochus III, wawusendaweni eseduze neRaphia. Impi yalwiwa eduze kwalesi sifunda somngcele njengoba izinhlangothi zombili zazifuna ukuqinisekisa ukulawula kwezindawo ezibalulekile ngokwecebo eLevant.

The ancient town of Raphia, is located near the modern city of Rafah. Rafah is a city situated in the southern Gaza Strip, which is part of the Palestinian territories. After Ptolemy’s victory at Raphia in 217 BC, he initiated persecutions against the Jews in Jerusalem, and also in Egypt. The victory was short-lived and he met his Waterloo, so to speak, in the next three verses. In verse thirteen, the previously defeated king of the north returns and by verse fifteen he overwhelms the king of the south.

Idolobha lasendulo laseRaphia litholakala eduze nedolobha lanamuhla iRafah. IRafah idolobha eliseningizimu yeGaza Strip, eyingxenye yezindawo zasePalestina. Emva kokunqoba kukaPtolemy eRaphia ngonyaka ka-217 BC, waqala ukushushisa amaJuda eJerusalema, kanye naseGibhithe. Lokho kunqoba kwaba ngokwesikhashana, futhi wahlangabezana nokwehlulwa okukhulu, ngomqondo wokukhuluma, emavesini amathathu alandelayo. Evesini leshumi nantathu, inkosi yasenyakatho eyayikade yehluliwe iyabuya, futhi ngevesi leshumi nanhlanu iyayinqoba inkosi yaseningizimu.

The victory of Putin in the Ukraine will be used by Putin, a former KGB officer who specialized in propaganda, to most likely expose the Nazi roots of the Ukrainian leadership, and also expose those in the Western World who supported the regime for economic greed, and no doubt also expose the hidden black-sites and bio-labs employed by the globalists, which have been funded by the taxpayers of the United States.

Ukunqoba kukaPutin e-Ukraine kuzosebenziswa nguPutin, owayeyisikhulu se-KGB esagxila kakhulu emkhakheni wenkulumo-ze, cishe kakhulu ukuze adalule izimpande zobuNazi zobuholi base-Ukraine, futhi adalule nalabo eMhlabeni waseNtshonalanga ababeseka lowo mbuso ngenxa yokuhaha kwezomnotho, futhi ngokungangabazeki adalule nezikhungo eziyimfihlo nezindawo zokuhlola izifo eziphilayo ezisetshenziswa ngabambelele embusweni womhlaba, ebezixhaswe ngabakhokhintela base-United States.

Those revelations will destroy the current talking points of the world globalists, and also of the Democratic talking heads in the United States. That victory for Putin will provide the mandate for the eighth President, that is of the seven, to take his role as the prophetic despot that arrives into history just before verse sixteen; and verse sixteen is the soon coming Sunday law.

Lezo zambulo zizobhidliza izinkulumo ezivamile zamanje zabafuna umhlaba ubuswe yizinga lomhlaba wonke, kanye nezabakhulumela iDemocratic e-United States. Leyo mpumelelo kaPutin izonikeza igunya kuMongameli wesishiyagalombili, ongowabayisikhombisa, ukuba athathe indima yakhe njengombusi wobushiqela ongokwesiprofetho ongena emlandweni ngaphambi nje kwevesi leshumi nesithupha; kanti ivesi leshumi nesithupha lingumthetho weSonto osuzofika maduze.

In verse thirteen, the king of the north regroups his army, and in verse fourteen, pagan Rome is introduced into history for the first time, though it is not yet the king of the north. It is there identified as the symbol which “establishes the vision”, and as the power who exalts himself and then falls. After the victory of Putin in the war in the Ukraine, the papacy will begin to lift itself up into world politics, just in advance of the Sunday law in verse sixteen.

Evesini leshumi nantathu, inkosi yasenyakatho iphinde iqoqe ibutho layo, kanti evesini leshumi nane, iRoma yobuhedeni yethulwa emlandweni okokuqala, nakuba ingakabi yinkosi yasenyakatho. Lapho ichazwa njengophawu “olumisa umbono”, futhi njengamandla aziphakamisayo bese ewa. Ngemva kokunqoba kukaPutin empini yase-Ukraine, upapa uzoqala ukuziphakamisa ezindabeni zezombusazwe zomhlaba, ngaphambi nje komthetho weSonto osevesini leshumi nesithupha.

The French Revolution, and its connection with the Russian Revolution; Napoleon and Putin; the miracle of Fatima, and its three secrets; the secret alliance between the Vatican and Hitler, the secret alliance between the Vatican and Reagan, are all prophetic “wheels” that intersect in the history of verses eleven through fifteen, which occur during the history of September 11, 2001 until the Sunday law in the United States. It was important to provide a brief summary of these prophetic “wheels” before we take up verse ten.

Ukuvukela KwaseFrance, nokuxhumana kwako noKuqembuka KwaseRussia; uNapoleon noPutin; isimangaliso saseFatima, nezimfihlo zaso ezintathu; umfelandawonye oyimfihlo phakathi kweVatican noHitler, umfelandawonye oyimfihlo phakathi kweVatican noReagan, konke kuyizi“sondo” zesiprofetho ezihlangana emlandweni wamavesi eshumi nanye kuya kweleshumi nanhlanu, ezenzeka phakathi komlando kaSepthemba 11, 2001 kuze kube umthetho weSonto e-United States. Bekubalulekile ukunikeza isifinyezo esifushane salezi “sondo” zesiprofetho ngaphambi kokuba siqale ivesi leshumi.

The following article is taken from “NBC news,” which is as “Main Stream Media,” as it gets, and the “MSM” is the modern version of Hitler’s World War Two propaganda machine. The article is of course anti-Putin, anti-Russian, and pro-Ukraine, but that is not the point. As citizens of the heavenly kingdom, God’s people should not endorse either side of a satanic work, and all warfare is a satanic work.

Isihloko esilandelayo sithathwe ku-“NBC News,” okuyisibonelo esigcwele salokho okubizwa ngokuthi “Main Stream Media,” futhi i-“MSM” iyinguqulo yesimanje yomshini wenkulumo-ze kaHitler weMpi Yezwe Yesibili. Lesi sihloko, njengokulindelekile, simelene noPutin, simelene neRussia, futhi sisekela i-Ukraine, kodwa akusilo lelo iphuzu. Njengezakhamuzi zombuso wasezulwini, abantu bakaNkulunkulu akufanele basekele noma yiluphi uhlangothi lomsebenzi kaSathane, futhi yonke impi ingumsebenzi kaSathane.

The purpose of this article is to allow those who are unfamiliar with the prophetic warfare between Catholicism (the king of the north) and atheism (the king of the south), and the fact that in the warfare of those two prophetic powers, Naziism has been employed as Catholicism’s proxy army (just as the United States was used in 1989). Students of prophecy need to have enough evidence to see that the background history of World War Two, and of the Cold War, are represented in the current war in Ukraine, as it fulfills verses eleven and twelve, of chapter eleven of Daniel.

Inhloso yalesi sihloko ukuvumela labo abangawajwayele umlo wokuprofetha ophakathi kobuKatolika (inkosi yasenyakatho) nokungakholelwa ebukhoneni bukaNkulunkulu (inkosi yaseningizimu), kanye neqiniso lokuthi empini yalawo mandla amabili okuprofetha, ubuNazi busetshenzisiwe njengebutho elimele ubuKatolika (njengoba nje i-United States yasetshenziswa ngo-1989). Abafundi besiprofetho badinga ukuba nobufakazi obanele ukuze babone ukuthi umlando ongemuva weMpi Yezwe Yesibili, noweMpi Yomshoshaphansi, umelwe empini yamanje yase-Ukraine, njengoba ugcwalisa amavesi 11 no-12 esahlukweni 11 sikaDaniyeli.

NBC News Article: “Ukraine’s Nazi problem is real, even if Putin’s ‘denazification’ claim isn’t”

I-athikili ye-NBC News: “Inkinga yase-Ukraine yamaNazi ingokoqobo, noma ngabe isimangalo sikaPutin ‘sokususa ubuNazi’ singesona”

Of the many distortions manufactured by Russian President Vladimir Putin to justify Russia’s assault on Ukraine, perhaps the most bizarre is his claim that the action was taken to “denazify” the country and its leadership. In making his case for entering his neighbor’s territory with armored tanks and fighter jets, Putin has stated that the move was undertaken “to protect people” who have been “subjected to bullying and genocide,” and that Russia “will strive for the demilitarization and denazification of Ukraine.”

Phakathi kokuhlanekezelwa okuningi okuqanjwe nguMongameli waseRussia uVladimir Putin ukuze athethelele ukuhlasela kweRussia i-Ukraine, mhlawumbe okuyinqaba kunakho konke yisimangalo sakhe sokuthi lesi senzo sathathwa ukuze “kwenziwe i-denazification” yezwe nobuholi balo. Ekwethuleni izizathu zakhe zokungena endaweni yezwe elingumakhelwane wakhe ngamathangi ahlomile nezindiza zempi, uPutin uthe lesi sinyathelo sathathwa “ukuvikela abantu” abaye “bahlushwa ukuhlukunyezwa nokubulawa kohlanga,” nokuthi iRussia “izolwela ukwenziwa i-demilitarization ne-denazification ye-Ukraine.”

Putin’s destructive actions — among them the devastation of Jewish communities — make clear that he’s lying when he says his goal is to ensure anyone’s welfare.

Izenzo zikaPutin ezibhubhisayo — phakathi kwazo ukubhujiswa kwemiphakathi yamaJuda — zenza kucace ukuthi uqamba amanga lapho ethi inhloso yakhe ukuqinisekisa inhlalakahle yanoma ubani.

On its face, Putin’s smear is absurd, not least because Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is Jewish and has said that members of his family were killed during World War II. There is also no evidence of recent mass killings or ethnic purges taking place in Ukraine. Moreover, labeling enemies Nazis is a common political ploy in Russia, especially from a leader who favors disinformation campaigns and wants to stir up feelings of national vengeance against a WWII foe to justify conquest.

Ngokubukeka kwayo nje, ukunyundela kukaPutin kuyinhlekisa engenangqondo, ikakhulukazi ngoba uMongameli wase-Ukraine uVolodymyr Zelenskyy ungumJuda futhi usho ukuthi amalungu omndeni wakhe abulawa phakathi neMpi Yezwe II. Futhi abukho ubufakazi bokuthi kukhona ukubulawa kwabantu ngobuningi noma ukuhlanzwa kwezinhlanga okwenzekayo e-Ukraine muva nje. Ngaphezu kwalokho, ukubiza izitha ngamaNazi kuyisu lezepolitiki elivamile eRussia, ikakhulukazi livela kumholi othanda imikhankaso yokusabalalisa ulwazi olungelona iqiniso futhi ofuna ukuvusa imizwa yokuziphindiselela kwesizwe maqondana nesitha seMpi Yezwe II ukuze athethelele ukunqoba.

But even though Putin is engaging in propaganda, it’s also true that Ukraine has a genuine Nazi problemboth past and present. Putin’s destructive actions — among them the devastation of Jewish communities — make clear that he’s lying when he says his goal is to ensure anyone’s welfare. But important as it is to defend the yellow-and-blue flag against the Kremlin’s brutal aggression, it would be a dangerous oversight to deny Ukraine’s antisemitic history and collaboration with Hitler’s Nazis, as well as the latter-day embrace of neo-Nazi factions in some quarters.

Kodwa nakuba uPutin ehileleka enkulumweni-ze, kuyiqiniso futhi ukuthi i-Ukraine inenkinga yangempela yobuNazi — kokubili esikhathini esedlule nakulesi samanje. Izenzo zikaPutin ezibhubhisayo — kuhlanganise phakathi kwazo ukubhujiswa kwemiphakathi yamaJuda — zikwenza kucace ukuthi uqamba amanga lapho ethi inhloso yakhe iwukuqinisekisa inhlalakahle yanoma ubani. Kodwa noma kubaluleke kangakanani ukuvikela ifulegi eliphuzi neliluhlaza okwesibhakabhaka ekuhlaseleni okunonya kweKremlin, kungaba ukunganaki okuyingozi ukuphika umlando wase-Ukraine wokumelana namaJuda nokusebenzisana namaNazi kaHitler, kanye nokwamukelwa kwanamuhla kwezinhlaka ze-neo-Nazi kwezinye izindawo.

Why are fleeing Ukrainians being talked about with such sympathy? They are white.

Kungani kukhulunywa ngabantu base-Ukraine ababalekayo ngozwelo olungaka? Bangabamhlophe.

On the eve of World War II, Ukraine was home to one the largest Jewish communities in Europe, with estimates as high as 2.7 million, a remarkable number considering the territory’s long record of antisemitism and pogroms. By the end, more than half would perish. When German troops took control of Kyiv in 1941, they were welcomed by “Heil Hitler” banners. Soon after, nearly 34,000 Jews — along with Roma and other “undesirables” — were rounded up and marched to fields outside the city on the pretext of resettlement only to be massacred in what became known as the “Holocaust by bullets.”

Ngobusuku bangaphambi kweMpi Yezwe II, i-Ukraine yayiyikhaya lomunye wemiphakathi yamaJuda emikhulu kunayo yonke eYurophu, izibalo zayo zifinyelela phezulu ku-2.7 million, okuyinani elimangalisayo uma kubhekwa umlando omude wale ndawo wokumelana namaJuda kanye namaphogrom. Ekugcineni, ngaphezu kwengxenye yabo yayizobhujiswa. Lapho amabutho aseJalimane elawula iKyiv ngo-1941, amukelwa ngamabhanela athi “Heil Hitler.” Ngokushesha ngemva kwalokho, cishe amaJuda angu-34,000 — kanye namaRoma nabanye “abangafuneki” — aqoqwa ndawonye futhi amashwaqwa aya emasimini angaphandle kwedolobha ngaphansi kwesaba sokuthi ayesuswa ayohlaliswa kwenye indawo, kodwa ukuze abulawe ngobuningi kulokho okwase kwaziwa ngokuthi “iHolocaust yezinhlamvu.”

The Babyn Yar ravine continued to fill up as a mass grave for two years. With as many as 100,000 murdered there, it became one of the largest single killing sites of the Holocaust outside of Auschwitz and other death camps. Researchers have noted the key role locals played in fulfilling Nazi kill orders at the site.

Umhosha waseBabyn Yar waqhubeka ugcwaliseka njengengcwaba elikhulu iminyaka emibili. Njengoba kwabulawa abantu abangafinyelela ku-100,000 khona lapho, waba ngenye yezindawo ezinkulu kakhulu zokubulalela endaweni eyodwa zeHolocaust ngaphandle kwase-Auschwitz nakwezinye izinkambu zokufa. Abacwaningi baphawule indima ebalulekile eyadlalwa ngabantu bendawo ekufezeni imiyalo yokubulala yamaNazi kuleyo ndawo.

Nowadays, Ukraine counts between 56,000 to 140,000 Jews, who enjoy freedoms and protections never imagined by their grandparents. That includes an updated law passed last month criminalizing antisemitic acts. Unfortunately, the law was intended to address a pronounced uptick in public displays of bigotry, including swastika-laden vandalism of synagogues and Jewish memorials, and eerie marches in Kyiv and other cities that celebrated the Waffen SS.

Namuhla, i-Ukraine ibala phakathi kwamaJuda angu-56,000 kuya kwangu-140,000, ajabulela inkululeko nokuvikelwa okhokho bawo abangakaze bakucabange. Lokho kuhlanganisa umthetho obuyekeziwe owaphasiswa ngenyanga edlule owenza izenzo zokumelana namaJuda zibe yicala lobugebengu. Ngeshwa, lowo mthetho wawuhloselwe ukubhekana nokwanda okusobala kwemibukiso yomphakathi yenzondo nobandlululo, okuhlanganisa ukucekelwa phansi kwamasinagoge nezikhumbuzo zamaJuda okubhalwe noma okupendwe ngama-swastika, kanye nemibhikisho eyethusayo eKyiv nakwamanye amadolobha eyayigubha i-Waffen SS.

In another ominous development, Ukraine has in recent years erected a glut of statues honoring Ukrainian nationalists whose legacies are tainted by their indisputable record as Nazi proxies. The Forward newspaper cataloged some of these deplorables, including Stepan Bandera, leader of the Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists (OUN), whose followers acted as local militia members for the SS and German army. “Ukraine has several dozen monuments and scores of street names glorifying this Nazi collaborator, enough to require two separate Wikipedia pages,” the Forward wrote.

Kokunye okwethusayo okwenzekile, eminyakeni yamuva i-Ukraine imise inqwaba yezithombe ezihlonipha abashisekeli bezwe base-Ukraine, ifa labo elingcoliswe umlando wabo ongenakuphikiswa wokuba ngabameleli bamaNazi. Iphephandaba i-Forward laqoqa uhlu lwabanye balaba abasolekayo kakhulu, kuhlanganise noStepan Bandera, umholi weNhlangano Yabashisekeli Bezwe Base-Ukraine (OUN), abalandeli bakhe abasebenza njengamalungu amabutho endawo e-SS nasebuthweni laseJalimane. “I-Ukraine inezikhumbuzo eziningana eziningi kanye namagama emigwaqo amaningi adumisa lo mhlanganyeli wamaNazi, okwanele ukuthi kudingeke amakhasi amabili ahlukene e-Wikipedia,” kubhala i-Forward.

Another frequent honoree is Roman Shukhevych, revered as a Ukrainian freedom fighter but also the leader of a feared Nazi auxiliary police unit that the Forward notes was “responsible for butchering thousands of Jews and … Poles.” Statues have also been raised for Yaroslav Stetsko, a one-time chair of the OUN, who wrote “I insist on the extermination of the Jews in Ukraine.”

Omunye ovame ukuhlonishwa nguRoman Shukhevych, odunyiswa njengomlwi wenkululeko wase-Ukraine kodwa futhi engumholi weyunithi yamaphoyisa asizayo amaNazi eyayesatshwa, i-Forward ephawula ukuthi “yayinomthwalo wokubulala ngonya izinkulungwane zamaJuda kanye … nabasePoland.” Izithombe eziqoshiwe ziye futhi zamiswa ngenhlonipho kaYaroslav Stetsko, owake waba usihlalo we-OUN, owabhala wathi, “Ngigcizelela ukuqothulwa kwamaJuda e-Ukraine.”

Far-right groups have also gained political currency in the past decade, none more chilling than Svoboda (formerly the Social National Party of Ukraine), whose leader claimed the country was controlled by a “Muscovite-Jewish mafia” and whose deputy used an antisemitic slur to describe Ukrainian-born Jewish actor Mila Kunis. Svoboda has sent several members to Ukraine’s Parliament, including one who called the Holocaust a “bright period” in human history, according to Foreign Policy.

Amaqembu akude kwesokudla nawo athole amandla ezombusazwe eminyakeni eyishumi edlule, futhi akukho nelilodwa elithusayo njengelithi Svoboda (phambilini elalaziwa ngokuthi iSocial National Party of Ukraine), umholi walo owathi izwe lalilawulwa “yiMafia yamaMuscovite namaJuda,” kanti iphini lakhe lasebenzisa isihlamba esiphikisana namaJuda ukuchaza umlingisi ongumJuda owazalelwa e-Ukraine, uMila Kunis. ISvoboda ithumele amalungu amaningana ePhalamende lase-Ukraine, kuhlanganisa nelinye elabiza ukuQothulwa Kwesizwe kwamaJuda ngokuthi “inkathi ekhanyayo” emlandweni wesintu, ngokweForeign Policy.

Just as disturbing, neo-Nazis are part of some of Ukraine’s growing ranks of volunteer battalions. They are battle-hardened after waging some of the toughest street fighting against Moscow-backed separatists in eastern Ukraine following Putin’s Crimean invasion in 2014. One is the Azov Battalion, founded by an avowed white supremacist who claimed Ukraine’s national purpose was to rid the country of Jews and other inferior races. In 2018, the U.S. Congress stipulated that its aid to Ukraine couldn’t be used “to provide arms, training or other assistance to the Azov Battalion.” Even so, Azov is now an official member of the Ukraine National Guard.

Okuphazamisayo ngokufanayo, ama-neo-Nazi ayingxenye yeminye yemikhakha ekhulayo yase-Ukraine yamabutho okuzithandela. Aseqiniswe yimpi ngemva kokulwa kwezinye zezimpi zasemigwaqweni ezinzima kakhulu elwa nabahlukanisi abasekelwa yiMoscow empumalanga ye-Ukraine kulandela ukuhlasela kweCrimea kukaPutin ngo-2014. Elinye lawo yi-Azov Battalion, elasungulwa ngumuntu owayezibiza ngokusobala njengomphakamisi wobukhosi babamhlophe, owathi inhloso yesizwe yase-Ukraine kwakuwukususa amaJuda nezinye izinhlanga ezithathwa njengezingaphansi ezweni. Ngo-2018, iCongress yase-U.S. yanquma ukuthi usizo lwayo e-Ukraine lwalungeke lusetshenziswe “ukunikeza izikhali, ukuqeqeshwa noma olunye usizo ku-Azov Battalion.” Noma kunjalo, i-Azov manje isiyilungu elisemthethweni le-Ukraine National Guard.

For sure, none of this disturbing context justifies the misery that has befallen Ukrainians over the past several weeks — and it’s unlikely that Putin was motivated by any of it when he launched his invasion. Indeed, thanks to Putin, Jews living in Odessa, Kharkiv and other eastern cities are under extreme duress. While many have taken refuge in local synagogues and Jewish centers, others have fled to foreign countries, including Israel, which has urged all Jews to leave Ukraine.

Ngokuqinisekile, akukho nokukodwa kwalolu hlaka oluphazamisayo oluthethelela usizi olwehlele abantu base-Ukraine emasontweni ambalwa adlule — futhi akunakwenzeka ukuthi uPutin wayeqhutshwa yinoma ikuphi kwalokhu ngesikhathi eqala ukuhlasela kwakhe. Impela, ngenxa kaPutin, amaJuda ahlala e-Odessa, eKharkiv nakwamanye amadolobha asempumalanga angaphansi kokucindezeleka okukhulu ngokwedlulele. Ngenkathi abaningi bethole isiphephelo emasinagogeni endawo nasezikhungweni zamaJuda, abanye babalekele emazweni angaphandle, kuhlanganisa ne-Israyeli, ekhuthaze wonke amaJuda ukuba ashiye i-Ukraine.

My own grandparents themselves had to flee western Ukraine to escape persecution, and it is tragic to see this cycle continue. If the country devolves into chaos and insurgency, Jews could once again be at risk from some of their fellow citizens. Not acknowledging this threat means that little is being done to guard against it.

Ogogo nomkhulu bami uqobo kwadingeka babaleke entshonalanga ye-Ukraine ukuze baphunyuke ekuhlushweni, futhi kuyadabukisa ukubona lo mjikelezo uqhubeka. Uma izwe lehlela esiphithiphithini nasekuvukeleni kombuso, amaJuda angaphinda abe sengozini evela kwabanye bezakhamuzi zakubo. Ukungaluqapheli lolu songo kusho ukuthi kuncane okwenziwayo ukuzivikela kulo.

But even if some elements of the country have been entangled with one of history’s most loathsome movements, standing with Ukraine is without doubt the honorable posture to take in this drama. Right now, every day that Putin ratchets up his assault against the Ukrainian people with scorched-earth zeal, it’s hard not to see who truly deserves the N-word.

Kodwa noma ezinye izingxenye zalelo zwe ziye zabanjwa zaxhunywa komunye wemibhikisho enyanyeka kakhulu emlandweni, ukuma ne-Ukraine ngokungangabazeki kuyisimo esihloniphekileyo okufanele sithathwe kule drama. Njengamanje, nsuku zonke lapho uPutin eqinisa ukuhlasela kwakhe kubantu base-Ukraine ngentshiseko yokushiya umhlaba ushisiwe, kunzima ukungaboni ukuthi ngubani ngempela ofanele ukubizwa ngegama eliqala ngo-N.

Sizoqhubeka nalesi sifundo esihlokweni sethu esilandelayo.

“Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.” George Santayana.

“Labo abangakwazi ukukhumbula okwedlule bagwetshiwe ukuba bakuphinde.” George Santayana.

“All that God has in prophetic history specified to be fulfilled in the past has been, and all that is yet to come in its order will be. Daniel, God’s prophet, stands in his place. John stands in his place. In the Revelation the Lion of the tribe of Judah has opened to the students of prophecy the book of Daniel, and thus is Daniel standing in his place. He bears his testimony, that which the Lord revealed to him in vision of the great and solemn events which we must know as we stand on the very threshold of their fulfillment.

“Konke uNkulunkulu akuchazile emlandweni wesiprofetho ukuba kugcwaliseke esikhathini esedlule, sekugcwalisekile; futhi konke okusazayo, ngokulandelana kwako, kuyakuba njalo. UDaniyeli, umprofethi kaNkulunkulu, umi endaweni yakhe. UJohane umi endaweni yakhe. EsiMambulweni, iBhubesi lesizwe sakwaJuda livulele abafundi besiprofetho incwadi kaDaniyeli, ngalokho-ke uDaniyeli umi endaweni yakhe. Uthwala ubufakazi bakhe, lokho iNkosi eyakwembulela kuye embonweni mayelana nezigigaba ezinkulu nezesabekayo okumelwe sizazi njengoba simi khona kanye emnyango wokugcwaliseka kwazo.”

“In history and prophecy the Word of God portrays the long continued conflict between truth and error. That conflict is yet in progress. Those things which have been, will be repeated. Old controversies will be revived, and new theories will be continually arising. But God’s people, who in their belief and fulfillment of prophecy have acted a part in the proclamation of the first, second, and third angels’ messages, know where they stand. They have an experience that is more precious than fine gold. They are to stand firm as a rock, holding the beginning of their confidence steadfast unto the end.” Selected Messages, book 2, 109.

“Emlandweni nasekuprofetheni iZwi likaNkulunkulu liveza ukungqubuzana okuqhubeke isikhathi eside phakathi kweqiniso nephutha. Lokho kungqubuzana kuseqhubeka namanje. Lezo zinto ebezikhona ziyakuphindwa. Izingxabano zakudala ziyovuselelwa, futhi izimfundiso ezintsha ziyoqhubeka zivela. Kodwa abantu bakaNkulunkulu, okuthe ekukholweni kwabo nasekugcwalisekeni kwesiprofetho babamba iqhaza ekumenyezelweni kwemilayezo yengelosi yokuqala, yesibili, neyesithathu, bayazi lapho bemi khona. Banolwazi oluyigugu kakhulu kunegolide elicwengekileyo. Kumelwe bame baqine njengedwala, bebambelele ekuqaleni kokuthembela kwabo ngokuqinile kuze kube sekupheleni.” Selected Messages, book 2, 109.
