    Since my exodus is yet incomplete.....I was there. And it was indeed awful.

    According to the talk.....the iron and clay feet of the immense image is the Anglo-American world power. This is what I was taught as a child. but I could swear (I cannot find my old "Daniel's Prophecy" book) that when the Daniel's Prophecy book came out....the book depicted the bottom part of the legs as the Anglo American world power (since Britain "sprung" from the Roman empire) and the feet of iron and clay were depicted as the politically fragmented world that exists "at the end". Am I smoking dope?

    When I first started reading WTS literature some 45 years ago, much was being expounded from the two Bible books - Daniel and Revelation. And yes, in those years, we were always being told that the feet made from a clay / iron mix represented the polically fragmented world of these "Last Days."

    This is not "new light". It is a return to what was believed from1978 - 1985. The flip flopping continues.

    The interpretation changed (or was interpreted depending on the context of the literature) a couple of times. Trust me, the next new light will be that the feet are Iron = America and Clay = China. This would allow for the strong world power that was shattered by a soft economic element but both world powers would need each other to exist.

    After that, when the US fails (within a few decades when we all speak Chinese) the Greek world power will not be a significant world power anymore since they never really had a strong impact on Jehovah's people and thus the legs of iron were America and China the feet of clay and iron as they are strong as iron but the communistic aspects of this power make them open for widespread corruption and thus these are the 'soft' elements. We will still be living in the time period of the feet and the rock is about to hit the feet so Armageddon should be really close now. Sorry for the last 300 years of speculation where the Holy Spirit was wrong but the light keeps on getting brighter like a strobe at the disco.

    Within 5 world powers the statue would've come into existence at 1914 and thus the head of Gold is America as foreshadowed by the king of Babylon.
