The organization says "Britain and America make up the Anglo-American world power which make up the League of Nations
and the League of Nations fails and comes back as the "United Nations" which is the "Wild Beast."
Any Encyclopedia will tell you "America was never a member of the League of Nations."
So this proves them to be what they are. LIERS!

When Armageddon comes all powers will cease to exist very fast ( in a short time ).
But to know when Armageddon will come we must know how God Yahweh works His plans in time . We must know how God acted in the past in what specific times . This requieres the usage of biblical calendar of history .
But doing calculations on numbers in the Bible we must create a timeline in a logical fashion that shows God's perfect actions .
That is why now knowing that the date September 29,2011 AD came out as the best prediction for Jesus' return I can assure anyone Armageddon will not come tomorrow , neither on March 29 or April 10 ,2011 AD, it will not come in 2013 AD. 2039 AD, 3045 AD but it may come on Septemeber 29,2011 AD . It will not come on September 12 ,2011 AD .It will not comeon November 24 ,2011 AD.
It will not come unless a specific date is announced to the world by someone who is God's servant and the proclamation must be based on the Bible.

The Anglo-American World Power still holds its position. “But it will be without hand that he will be broken,” said the angel Gabriel. (Daniel 8:25) Very soon, this seventh world power of Bible prophecy—this “king fierce in countenance”—will be broken, not by human hands, but by superhuman power at Armageddon. (Daniel 2:44; Revelation 16:14, 16) How thrilling it is to know that the sovereignty of Jehovah God, the Prince of princes, will then be vindicated!***

The angel further explains to John: “Andthewildbeastthatwasbutisnot,itisalsoitselfaneighthking,butspringsfromtheseven,anditgoesoffintodestruction.”(Revelation17:11) The symbolic scarlet-colored wild beast “springs from” the seven heads; that is, it is born from, or owes its existence to, those heads of the original “wild beast . . . out of the sea,” of which the scarlet-colored wild beast is an image. In what way? Well, in 1919 the Anglo-American power was the ascendant head. The previous six heads had fallen, and the position of dominant world power had passed to this dual head and was now centered in it. This seventh head, as the current representative of the line of world powers, was the moving force in establishing the League of Nations and is still the major promoter and financial support of the United Nations. Thus, in symbol, the scarlet-colored wild beast—the eighth king—“springs from” the original seven heads. Viewed in this way, the statement that it sprang from the seven harmonizes well with the earlier revelation that the wild beast with two horns like a lamb (the Anglo-American World Power, the seventh head of that original wild beast) urged the making of the image and gave it life.—Revelation 13:1, 11, 14, 15.9
Additionally, original members of the League of Nations included, along with Great Britain, governments that ruled in the seats of some of the previous heads, namely Greece, Iran (Persia), and Italy (Rome). Eventually, governments ruling the territory controlled by the previous six world powers came to be supportive members of the image of the wild beast. In this sense, too, it could be said that this scarlet-colored wild beast sprang from the seven world powers.10
Notice that the scarlet-colored wild beast “is also itself an eighth king.” Thus, the United Nations today is designed to look like a world government. At times it has even acted like one, sending armies into the field to resolve international disputes, as in Korea, the Sinai Peninsula, some African countries, and Lebanon. But it is only the image of a king. Like a religious image, it has no real influence or power apart from what is invested in it by those who brought it into existence and worship it. On occasion, this symbolic wild beast looks weak; but it has never experienced the kind of wholesale abandonment by dictator-oriented members that sent the League of Nations reeling into the abyss. (Revelation 17:8) Though holding radically different opinions in other areas, a prominent leader of the former Soviet Union in 1987 joined the popes of Rome in expressing support for the UN. He even called for “a comprehensive system of international security” based on the UN. As John soon learns, the time will come when the UN will act with considerable authority. Then it, in its turn, “goes off into destruction.”As the UN is mentioned as the 8th king... that will (also) be destroyed... it seems there will be not a real 8th worldpower... it is only look like a 8th power... so the seventh power will be destroyed just like the king of the North (Dan 11:45)
(Daniel
11:45) And he will plant his palatial tents between [the] grand sea and the holy mountain of Decoration; and he will have to come all the way to his end, and there will be no helper for him.
So NO new worldpower will come if JW tell the true thing...***

The view is that the One World Totalitarian Government (Agenda 21--you can type "Agenda 21" into your favorite search engine) is going to be in force for a very short time before the Great Tribulation comes. Which I think is bullsxxx, because just as the beginning of the First Dark Ages didn't result in Armageddon, the Second Dark Ages won't either. The earth can be full of human cattle all working for the Rothschilds, where everyone is given the crappiest "education(??)" they possibly can and worked into the ground doing what they hate most with the Rothschilds getting 100% of the benefit, and Jehovah doesn't give a fxxx.
Hell, Jehovah's objective is full enslavement of the human race. And, whether he is the one doing it directly or through the Rothschilds, he doesn't care. What he does object to is for humans to be free, with the poorest of the poor being richer than the Rothschilds through their own value creation (and the richest being rich beyond their imaginations, again through honest value creation). Jehovah cannot stand for problems to be solved through human ingenuity--he would rather see the Rothschilds enslave us all than let us be free. Hence, I don't think we are going to see Armageddon any time soon, even if one small group of people enslaves the whole population forever.

The funny thing is, is that the United States is on the verge of collapsing, monetary and millitary. The enourmous goverment spending, trade deficit and debt will crush the states. In March Congress will have to approve the debt ceiling to be raised, otherwise default will happen. Ofcourse the Debt Ceiling will be raised and Helicopter Ben will drop more money with his Helicopter so that the Wall Street zombie banks will not go under with their derivatives bubble. The currency will fail, and its will no longer be used as the Reserve Currency. The western economy is already on the tour to the new World Depression, in wich we already share.
The US is no longer a superpower, China and the Fed hold most of the US debt and therefore have more to say about its policies then the people do. Thats why you see all these Wallstreet Zombie bankers influencing Obama. Obama should instead of focussing of letting the fed destroy the currency and with policies that unwind heavy industry subsidize great project like the Apollo project was in the 60s. The US needs a better infrastructure, better railroads, and more industry. The close of GM and other car producers was one of the biggest failures of the Obamanomics. The economy is not dependent on zombie bankers who trade as parasites on speculative derivatives, these hyenas dont care about currency devaluation because they have enough anyway.
Pure production will save the US. A new currency is not needed. Start financing with 0% railroad projects, infrastructure, nucleair power and so on, this will create great modern jobs, and industrialize the US as it was before. Unemployment will drop and prosperity will resume. A new ''The New Deal'' like FDR is needed. And Obama is failing on all the aspects as the demagogue he is.
The US can still save itself, this does not mean vote for Ron Paul, because he is a pure deflationist that will kill alot of people in the progress through hunger. R. Pauls mission is to cut spending, and cut the money supply, leaving the top notches able to buy up everything in pennies for the dollar.
The USA stands on some very important crossroads wich will determine the Western Economy and the Military power of the EU(SSR).
A small comment on the part of the WT prediction that the Anglo American power is the last?! Its is absolute BS. England failed already in the 20th centuries with the Sterling Pound and is on the verge of default. USA doesnt fare any better, while Russia and China are strong hands, holding both currencies and commodities. War isnt fought with guns and bombs, but with economics. The Wattchtower is a big fraud, and we will be LAUGHING OUR ASSES OFF!!!! In a few years when this book, called the Revelations Book. will be deemed as pure fiction... Its going to be fun to show it to JW. And yeah, hell is already on Earth.
