When the fate of all civilization now hangs in the balance, everyone wishes he knew what the future holds. You can’t find the answer in any modern publication. Even today’s newspapers can give you only yesterday’s news. For tomorrow’s news and next year’s news, you must read the Bible, most of this information is in the Old Testament.
Yahweh speaks many prophecies through the prophets who wrote between 1,800 and 3,300 years ago. Some of these concerned their own times and were fulfilled then. However, the greatest of these, and probably the most numerous, concern our own day. As the apostle Paul said in I Corinthians 10:11, “They are written for our admonition, upon whom the end of the age is come.”
Many other prophets remind us of this, especially Daniel. Repeatedly, Yahweh emphasized that His word to Daniel was for the last days. Daniel 8:17,19 states, “Understand, O ,son of man: for at the time of the end shall be the vision. Behold I will make thee know what shall be in the last end of the indignation: for at the time appointed the end shall be.” Daniel 10:14 goes on to say, “Now I am come to make thee understand what shall befall thy people in the latter days.”
Daniel 12:9-10 continues, “Go thy way Daniel: for the words are closed up and sealed till the time of the end. Many shall be purified and tried; but the wicked shall do wickedly: and none of the wicked shall understand; but the wise shall understand.” Besides the internal evidence of the dating of prophecies, Yahweh told Jeremiah twice, recorded in Jeremiah 23:20; 30:24, “In the latter days ye shall consider it.”
The prophets are speaking to us today, they warn us of the great events now shaking the world. They told us how we could avoid the terrible dangers of these days. Since Yahweh knows our mulish stubbornness and dense stupidity, they warn us of the consequences of our national disobedience.
The Bible clearly shows the rise and fall of empires is no mere accident, they play a part in Yahweh’s plans. When cruel and wicked nations threaten us with slavery or destruction, it is for judgment of our disloyalty to Yahweh and His laws. Had we obeyed Him, we would never have allowed wickedness to rise to power. In this end of the age, Yahweh’s judgments are to begin through the activities of other races and nations. Therefore, no warning could be of any use if merely in the abstract, it must tell us not only what, but who.
You who are trying to keep and perfect a civilization designed according to your national and racial ideals, you are the descendants of a hundred generations like yourselves, who began the work you are now trying to complete. The civilization you have could not have been made by your efforts alone, you would not have known what to build, without the work of your ancestors. They taught you the ideals you are trying to make into concrete realities, you and your world are the product of your race.
A large part of the world is inhabited by people who hold the bitterest hatred for you, your civilization and ideals. They hate everything you recognize as good, it is not geography that does this. There is nothing about Asia or Africa, as mere land areas, which is hostile to you, it is only the people who hate you. A few short years ago they were more or less friendly, what changed them into enemies? Not our own actions, for we have done nothing harmful to them, in fact we have burdened ourselves down with ruinous taxation. We have a public debt greater than that of all the rest of the world combined, mostly to help them. Yet, they have changed from lukewarm friends into enthusiastically bitter enemies. Since our own actions did not cause this change, who did it? For the answer, we must go far back into ancient history, all that exists today has its roots deep in the past. The saying, you can’t follow the game without a program, is doubly true here because most people don’t know who is playing on which team!!!
Everyone alive today, had ancestors who lived in Yahshua’s time. There were others who lived in the days of Moses and others long before that. These ancestors founded cohesive races and nations, they created customs, organizations and institutions which still exist today. That is why Bible prophets continue to prophesy future activities of Assyria and Babylon, centuries after those ancient empires had been destroyed. The cities were burned, but the people who built them lived, their customs and institutions still functioned, although transferred to other places.
Today, they still affect our daily lives and we are ruled by the descendants of the people who created them. You are actually governed by the Babylonian system, economic, political and religious, as effectively as if you lived in the days of king Nebuchadnezzar. You are in the same peril of Assyrian military conquest as in the days of King Sennacherib, an empire built upon the masses who furnish its armies and its labor force. It is not created by them, they are only the tools in the hands of the ruling leaders. Many empires have been ruled by alien kings. We must look to history to show us the directing forces, the ruling people who have shaped and still shape the course of history.
We find the beginning of today’s death struggle of races and religions in Genesis 3:15. It is here that Yahweh tells Satan, “I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed.” The same Hebrew word for seed or descendant, was used in both instances. This showed that Satan was to have just as literal seed, or born descendants, as Eve. Here is the lineup of the two opposing sides, the rest of the Bible is the history of this conflict. The prophecies of its end are in the earth shaking climax of the age, in our days. The Bible and history show us that Satan’s children became the rulers of empires, century after century, always seeking our destruction.
The first such empire they ruled seems to be the Assyrian. In the days when Adam and Eve were still in the garden of Eden, the Assyrians were already a mighty empire. Ezekiel 31:3-9 tell us about it. “Behold, the Assyrian was a cedar in Lebanon, with fair branches and with forest shade; its stature was exalted above all the trees of the field; and under its shadow dwelt all great nations. The cedars in the garden of Yahweh could not hide him: nor any tree in the garden of Yahweh was like unto him in his beauty: so that all the trees of Eden that were in the garden of God envied him.” Obviously, no mere wooden trees could envy anybody. These trees were the racial and national family trees of the various people existing then.
Like Babylon, Assyria went through alternate periods of greatness and decline. There is much evidence that Cain was a ruler of this first great empire. It extended from the Persian Gulf, across all western Asia and into the islands of the eastern Mediterranean Sea. It was a magnificent, highly civilized, but also cruel and evil empire. By 3500 B.C. it had collapsed but its civilization made possible the subsequent rise of Babylon among the Chaldeans to the south. Isaiah 23:13 records, “Behold the land of the Chaldeans; this people was not, till the Assyrians founded for them that dwell in the wilderness: they set the towers thereof, they raised the palaces thereof.”
Now don’t yawn and ask, what has this long dead stuff got to do with me? The descendants of the men who ruled this ancient empire are your masters today, they control the economic system under which you earn your living. They set your wages and the prices you pay for just about everything. They are the real but hidden rulers of the nation, guiding us into the approaching war which you dread. Hadn’t we better find out how they are handling your destiny?
After a gap of about 2,200 years, Assyria again became supreme for seven centuries of continuous war, plunder and cruelty. The distinguishing characteristics of the empire were as follows. (1) An insatiable lust for conquest and plunder. (2) Horrible cruelty to their victims. (3) Holding their victims in permanent slavery, often deporting them to other lands.
While kindness was not characteristic of those days, no other ancient people stained its record as horribly as Assyria did. Their cruelty was clearly a racial characteristic. Here is a mild sample from king Ashurnatsir pal’s official records of one of his wars. “With battle and slaughter I attacked the city and captured it. Many captives I burned with fire. I captured many of their soldiers alive. I cut off the hands and feet of some. I cut off the ears and noses of others. I put out the eyes of many soldiers. Their young men and maidens I burned with fire. I overthrew the city, dug it up and burned it with fire. I annihilated it.” Just primitive savagery you say? Is it any different from what Russia now threatens to do to any free people who resist communism? The Assyrian characteristics are still here, let’s see if the Assyrian people are still here.
Ancient Assyria fell between 612 B.C. and 606 B.C., when its capital city Nineveh was destroyed exactly as the prophet Nahum prophesied. We know that the survivors of its ruling class fled into what is today southwest Russia. This is the same area Stalin and Kruschev came from. They dared not remain where they would be subject to the vengeance of the nations they had ruled with such horrible cruelty, so they became refugees and displaced persons. Who were these people, these cruel and bloody tyrants?
In the northern part of the drainage basins of the Tigris and Euphrates rivers, they were known as Assyrians. Those of them who lived west and northwest of Assyria, were known as Hittites and Canaanites. Their own statues and monuments prove them to be racially identical.
In the ruins of ancient Hittite cities, we have found sculptured palace walls and statues portraying their own people. On the walls of palaces, in the ruins of Ninevah and Nimrod, we have found magnificent mural decorations in painted and glazed tile and beautifully carved alabaster friezes. These show the Assyrians as portrayed by their own artists. Among both nations, these carvings and paintings show these people characterized by prominent hooked noses, somewhat thick lips and usually curly hair. This same race walks the streets of our cities today, they have the same characteristics as the Assyrians but we call them Jews!
Their typical conduct is the same today as it was in ancient Assyria. By violent revolution, as the leaders of the Bolsheviks, they conquered Russia in 1917 and 1918. Between 1917 and 1939, they murdered at least 32 million Russians! First they murdered millions of peaceful Russians because these Russians would not give up their Christian religion. They also murdered other millions of Russian peasants because they wanted to be free men, they wanted to own their little farms instead of becoming slaves on the government’s collective farms. Everywhere in the city or country, they murdered everyone whom they suspected of wanting their freedom. Thus they gained a modern Assyria, organized for conquest just like the ancient one.
Then they conquered and enslaved their neighbors by military violence. They conquered the little Baltic states of Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia, then they conquered half of heroic Finland, then Romania, Bulgaria, Poland, East Germany, Albania and Hungary. Wherever their bestial armies went, they plundered the land bare, as if a plague of locusts had passed. They stole everything from fountain pens to factory machinery. They raped the women and treated the conquered populations with horrible barbarity, it was truly an Assyrian conquest.
Next we will talk about their characteristic cruelty. They promptly organized the captured nations into a typical communist society. This is where everyone must spy upon everyone else. The only recognized virtues were treachery and betrayal. Even the little children were compelled to report what their parents talked about.
Anyone who is suspected of opposing the ruling race or who has been denounced by some anonymous informer, is dragged off to prison and tortured to force him to confess and involve others in his so called treason. Any wistful hope of freedom is called treason in their empire. It is notorious that they have used all the resources of modern science to develop new methods of torture, more horrible than any known in the past. Again we see the characteristics of this hook nosed Assyrian Jew race in action.
Finally, their ancient evil trait, revived now that they have regained power, of holding their captives in permanent slavery. They often deported them to slave camps in other lands. If you know anything of what has gone on in the world these last decades, surely I don’t need to go over the melancholy list of their evil works in detail.
Every conquered nation is just one huge slave camp, thousands of Germans, Hungarians, Czechs and Poles have been deported to a slow death in Siberia. Most of the adult male population of Lithuania has been deported to Siberia. Mongol men have been brought in to breed the Lithuanian women, to make a more docile slave race. The race which, with force and treachery, rules Russia and her satellite slave states, is unchanged from ancient times, it is still our deadly enemy. They have sought our destruction since its first appearance in history. They are the children of Satan, as Yahshua says in John 8:44. The enmity between us is that prophesied by Yahweh in Genesis 3:15, therefore even the slightest trace of common sense would have told us not to strengthen them.
We have allowed these Assyrian Jews among us, to corrupt our leaders until they used our national strength and wealth to build up our enemies, against Yahweh’s warning. We found communist Russia tottering to her fall from internal weakness and we let president Roosevelt build her into the monster she is now. Then we betrayed the world into her hands. To compound our sin in keeping these Assyrian Jews in command of Russia, we have also created the United Nations. We seek to make it the master of all the world. This is an organization in which the pagan and wicked nations hopelessly out number and out vote the civilized world. This is just as it was prophesied.
Since the tribe of Ephraim was the dominant tribe in the northern kingdom of Israel, Yahweh often speaks of Israel as Ephraim. In Hosea 7 Yahweh says, “Ephraim mixes himself among the nations; strangers have devoured his strength, and he does not know it.” Instead of relying upon Yahweh, we seek the approval and assistance of pagan nations. Hosea says, “Ephraim has become like a silly, witless dove: they call to Egypt, they run off to Assyria.” Indeed we do!!
We wonder why the pagan, dark skinned nations are turning against us. We were not satisfied to leave in power over them any government friendly to us. We betrayed Chiang Kai Shek in order to drive him out of China and put the Reds in control. We forced Holland to leave Indonesia so Sukarno could make it pro Red and a submarine refueling base for Russia.
We used economic pressure on France, Belgium and Britain to force them out of Africa. Now the savage negro nations blackmail us with the threat of voting in the United Nations on Russia’s side, unless we give them countless billions of dollars. We conspired to overthrow Batista in Cuba, not because he was a dictator, because our state department loves Red dictators, like the murderous Tito in Yugoslavia and Gomulka in Poland.
We treacherously helped Castro to power when our state department positively knew he was a communist. Now he sets up rocket bases, bomber airfields and submarine bases, for Russia, just 90 miles off our shores. These Red governments are really of our own making! Yahweh speaks about us through Hosea 8:4, 7. “They have set up kings, but not from Me; they have made rulers, but I have not acknowledged them. They have sown the wind, and they shall reap the whirlwind.”
The nations, for whom we bankrupted ourselves, now despise us. Those we paid bribes to, won’t stay bought. Again, Yahweh speaks about us through Hosea. “Soon shall they be among the nations like a worthless thing. For they have gone to Assyria, like a wild ass wandering by itself. Ephraim gives love gifts; but though they hire among the heathen, I will soon gather them up; and they shall sigh, depressed by the load of the ruler of kings.”
Do we learn from this? No, we still try to make deals with the devil. We whined to Kruschev that we want to make agreements with him, when the only real trouble is he won’t keep the agreements he has already made. Again, Yahweh prophesied this through Hosea. “When Ephraim saw his sickness ... then went Ephraim to the Assyrian, and sent to King Jareb: yet he could not heal nor cure you of your wound.”
What lesson must we still learn from this? The inevitable results of our own wrongdoing. As Hosea tells us, “Ye have plowed wickedness, ye have reaped iniquity: ye have eaten the fruit of lies.” We allowed our own corrupt politicians to build up this evil power until it now imperils the whole world. We kept these corrupt politicians in office, when they did this in an evil bargain to win the support of a Jewish minority group, which we all knew to be wicked.
Since we did this in hypocritical self righteousness, saying that we supported the most horrible dictatorship of all time against Hitler and Mussolini, because they were dictators. We must now face the work of our own hands. Yahweh explains it in Isaiah chapter 10. “O Assyrian, the rod of mine anger; the staff in their hand is Mine indignation. I will send him against an hypocritical nation, and against the people of My wrath will I give him a charge, to take the spoil, and to take the prey, and to tread them down like the mire in the streets.”
The hypocritical nation, well describes our own international policy and we are eating the bitter fruit of it. The people of My wrath, can be clearly identified as another nation, as we shall soon see.
Atomic war with Russia is the inevitable result of our own corrupt politics, which built up Red Russia and Red China to world powers. To punish us, Russia, under the control of the Assyrian Jews, is the rod of Yahweh’s anger.
In Isaiah 14:16-17 we find a pretty good description of their leader. “Is this the man that made the earth to tremble, that did shake kingdoms: that made the world as a desert, and destroyed the cities thereof; that opened not the house of his prisoners?” They now threaten to make the world a desert and destroy the cities therein. Surely he opened not the house of his prisoners. Isaiah 14:24-26 clearly connects this up with Assyria.
Their military attack upon us is prophesied, including the actual invasion of our land. Micah 5:5-6 speaks of the time when, “The Assyrian shall come into our land, and when he shall tread in our palaces.” This does not refer to the invasion of Palestine by ancient Assyria, for that was already past when Micah wrote this prophecy of the future. It has not happened since then, therefore it is still ahead.
Isaiah 14:24-26 also covers this same invasion, and shows it is part of a tremendous world wide conflict. “Yahweh hath sworn saying, Surely as I have thought, so shall it come to pass; and as I have purposed, so shall it stand. That I will break the Assyrian in My land and upon My mountains tread him underfoot: then shall his yoke depart from off them and his burden depart from off their shoulders. This is the purpose that is purposed upon the whole earth: and this is the hand that is stretched out upon all nations.”
This is far greater than any ancient war, it must be the great invasion by Russia and her satellite slave states prophesied in Ezekiel chapters 38 & 39. The long and detailed prophesies of those two chapters show that Russia’s Red hordes will make a double invasion. One invasion will be through the near East, driving down east and south of Turkey, then they will go through Iran, Iraq and Jordan. Then they will proceed through the Jewish state in Palestine, to seize Egypt and the Suez Canal. The other invasion will be principally by air, across the North Pole. They will also come through eastern Siberia, down through Canada into the United States.
In the Palestinian invasion the United States will be involved, for only this can fulfill the prophecy of Zechariah 12:3 & 14:2. “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 against it. For I will gather all nations against Jerusalem to battle.”
This can only happen if all nations are represented there by the United Nations. This Palestinian invasion will be defeated by the return of Yahshua as Zachariah 14:3-4 states. “Then shall Yahweh go forth and fight against these nations, as when he fought in the day of battle. And His feet shall stand in that day upon the Mount of Olives which is before Jerusalem on the east; and the Mount of Olives shall cleave in the midst thereof toward the east and toward the west, and there shall be a very great valley; and half of the mountain shall remove toward the north and half of it toward the south.”
It will be a world wide judgment, for neutrality is not possible between good and evil. All nations will be forced to choose one side or the other. As the Assyrian Jewish communists rise to conquer and enslave the world, everyone must either oppose them or become part of their satanic system. Zephaniah 3:8 tells us, “Therefore wait ye upon Me, saith Yahweh, until the day that I rise up to the prey: for My determination is to gather the nations, that I may assemble the kingdoms, to pour upon them Mine indignation, even all My fierce anger; for all the earth shall be devoured with the fire of My zeal.”
Another confirmation of the double invasion prophesied in Ezekiel 38 & 39 is found in Isaiah 10:6, where Yahweh says of the Assyrians, “I will send him against an hypocritical nation, and against the people of My wrath will I give him a charge, to take the spoil and to take the prey, and to tread them down like the mire of the streets.”
Our hypocrisy in strengthening evil nations under the pretext of doing good, identifies us as the hypocritical nation. The people of Yahweh’s wrath are identified in Malachi 1:3-4, there Yahweh calls the Edomites, “The people against whom Yahweh hath indignation forever.”
The article on Edom in the Jewish encyclopedia concludes with the words, “The Edomites today are found in modem Jewry.” We know they now occupy much of Palestine, right in the path of Russia’s invasion from the east, where fighting will cause terrible devastation. They think they are so completely the masters of the Russians so they can, with impunity, bring Russian armies through Palestine to attack the western world.
The enslaved Russians know who their oppressors are. When the fighting breaks out in that land, the Russians will decide that since they must do the fighting and the dying for Jewish communism, they might as well seize the spoils for themselves.
What of the other Russian/Assyrian invasion out of the north into the United States? Ezekiel chapters 38 & 39 go into greatest detail, telling how it will be made partly by air and many communist troops will enter our land. However, Yahweh will fight for us with His terrible powers. Great storms will wreck the Russian air fleets, the armies will be beaten down with huge hail stones and will be hopelessly bogged down in bottomless mud and flooding streams. These streams will block both the advance and the retreat, while the troops starve for lack of supplies. Soldiers drafted from unwilling slave states will mutiny, so the Red army will destroy itself. Earthquakes and volcanic eruptions will add to the carnage. Through this scene of horror rages pestilence, which strikes down those who escape bullet wounds.
We can only be saved through the fire. We must harvest the bitter fruit of our wicked folly in electing politicians we know to be disloyal, just because they run on our party’s ticket. We allow them to bankrupt us, to strengthen our openly admitted enemies, meanwhile neglecting our own defenses. We allow the politicians to make treaties and agreements to put us under the power of nations which envy and hate us. These nations want to enslave us so they can steal our wealth instead of having to work for their own.
The penalty of putting blind loyalty to the mere name of a political party, above loyalty to Yahweh and country, is no longer only that the spoils of office go to the rascals of one party, instead of the rascals of the other party. The penalty now is a war which will devastate our great cities. Yahweh alone can provide the answer.
In Hosea 13:9-10 Yahweh says, “O Israel, thou hast destroyed thyself; but in Me is thine help. I will be thy king: where is any other that may save thee in all thy cities?” In Isaiah 41:10 He says, “Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee: yea I will help thee; and they that strive against thee shall perish.” Yahweh’s punishment of us will come, however it has always been for our good, not our destruction.
The prophet Isaiah pictures the Assyrian/Jewish attack in terms which leave no doubt it is the same Red Russian/Jewish attack prophesied in Ezekiel chapters 38 & 39. In Isaiah chapters 10, 14, 30 & 31 Isaiah states, “O Assyrian, the rod of Mine anger, the staff in their hand is Mine indignation. I will send him against an hypocritical nation; and against the people of My wrath will I give him charge, to take the spoil and to take the prey, and to tread them down like the mire of the streets. Howbeit, he means not so, neither does his heart think so; but it is in his heart to destroy and cut off nations not a few. For he says, By the strength of my hand have I done it, and by my wisdom, for I am prudent: and I have removed the boundaries of the people, and have robbed their treasures, and have put down the inhabitants like a valiant man. Shall the axe boast itself against him that heweth with it? Therefore shall Yahweh send among His fat ones leanness; and under His glory He shall kindle a burning like the burning of a fire: and it shall burn and devour His thorns and His briars in one day. Therefore thus saith Yahweh: O My people that dwell in Zion, be not afraid of the Assyrian: he shall smite thee with a rod, and shall lift up his staff against thee, after the manner of Egypt. For yet a little while and the indignation shall cease, and Mine anger, in their destruction. See! Yahweh comes from afar, in His blazing anger, amid rising banks of clouds, His lips filled with fury, and his breath like a devouring fire; breathing fury like a sweeping torrent that reaches to the neck, to sift the nations in the sieve of destruction, and to place in the jaws of the pagans a bridle that leads them to ruin.
But for you there will be a song, as in the night when a sacred festival is held, and gladness of heart, as when one sets out with music to go to the mount of Yahweh, to the rock of Israel. For Yahweh will cause his glorious voice to be heard, and the descent of his arm to be seen, in furious anger and flame of devouring fire, amid cloudburst and rain storm and hail. Assyria will be stricken with terror at the voice of Yahweh, when He smites with the rod. Yahweh hath sworn saying, That I will break the Assyrian in My land, and upon My mountains tread him underfoot: then shall his yoke depart from off them, and his burden depart from off their shoulders. This is the purpose which is purposed upon the whole earth. Then falls Assyria, destroyed by no hero’s sword, nor destroyed by no mortal blade. Assyrians fly before the sword, their very god flies in panic, their princes scatter in sheer terror, their soldiers are made serfs.”
Isaiah 17:13-14 adds, “They shall flee far off, and shall be chased as the chaff of the mountains before the wind, and like a tumbleweed before the whirlwind.” It is interesting to note that the tumbleweed, with which we are all familiar here in the west, is the Russian thistle!
This is not the end. So they cannot continue to rule in their modern Assyria and regain their strength, we carry the war to them. Micah 5:5-6 promises us, “When the Assyrian shall come into our land, and when he shall tread in our palaces, then shall we raise against him seven shepherds and eight princes of men. And they shall waste the land of Assyria with the sword, and the land of Nimrod within her gates.”
Remember the leaders of this Assyrian/Jewish race, are the same race as Satan, identified as such in Genesis 3:15John 8:44. Their actions have been consistently evil since the dawn of history. In Isaiah 14:16-21 Yahweh prophesies the end of them, the leaders and people alike. “Is this the man that caused the earth to tremble, who made kingdoms quake? Who turned the world into a desert and overthrew its cities; who would not set his prisoners free to return to their homes? All the kings of the nations lie in glory, each in his own tomb; but you are cast forth from your tomb like a hateful abortion, clothed like the slain, pierced by the sword, who go down to the stones in the pit, as a carcass trodden under foot. You will not join your fathers in burial, because you have ruined your country, you have slaughtered your people. May the race of evil doers not be mentioned forever! Prepare for his sons a place of slaughter because of their father’s guilt, lest they rise and take possession of the earth and fill the face of the world with their cities.” and
Like nearly everything in the Bible, this began in the book of Genesis. It began with Satan’s rebellion, and his treacherous betrayal of Adam and Eve. This led to thousands of years of misery for all the world, however Satan’s triumph was not to be permanent. In Genesis 3:15 Yahweh told Satan, “I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed.”
In John 8:31-44 Yahshua identifies these children of Satan as the Jews. Scores of generations of our ancestors spent all their lives defending themselves against the attacks, infiltration and the corruption of these people. Today this final conflict is reaching its climax. The war which they plan for the enslavement of the world, will end instead with their destruction. As you watch the last act of this great drama of the ages, be glad and proud that it is our God Yahweh, who rules the universe and who will save us as promised.
Critical note by Clifton A. Emahiser: While some of what Comparet presents here is very, very excellent, the rest of it is very, very unsatisfactory. While I usually have a very high regard for Bertrand L. Comparet’s teachings, I must only give him a grade of about 50% on this composition. While Comparet usually does quite well on history and prophecy, he botches things up with this presentation! First, he connects all Assyrians with the Cain-Satanic-seedline, which is not true. There may have been a few of Cain’s descendants in Assyria causing a lot of trouble, but as a whole, Assyria was a White nation in its origin as was Babylon. Assyria should not be confused with the Hittites, a people definitely satanic in nature. The Hittites were a near neighbor to the Assyrians, and as borders expanded and shrunk from time to time by various invasions and wars, Assyria would have completely brought the Hittites within the confines of the Assyrian borders. A.T. Olmstead in his History Of Assyria describes the Hittites thusly on page 35: “Judged by their portraits, the Hittites were a very mixed people. Some appear decidedly Mongolian, with slant eyes, snub noses, and sloping foreheads, and wearing a veritable pigtail ...”
From the Concise Bible Commentary by Rev. W.K. Lowther Clarke. I will quote a segment about the Hittites on pages 24-25. Although Clarke didn’t get it entirely correct, nevertheless this material is noteworthy: “Hittites.— A people which by 1600 [B.C.] formed a powerful State centered in eastern Asia Minor. Representations on the monuments show them to have been of a strongly ‘Armenoid’ type; the Jew of today resembles the ancient Hittites more than the pure Semites (Arabs). Khatti, as the Hittite kingdom was called, penetrated as far as Babylon c. 1550; also into N. Syria. In 1370 it conquered Mitanni, the N. Mesopotamian kingdom, and for a long period faced the Egyptian empire in central and southern Syria. In the 14th and 13th centuries Khatti probably profited by the weakness of Egypt and pushed into Palestine. About 1200 the Hittite empire collapsed before the attacks of invaders from the north, though Hittite States seem to have continued in the Carchemish district. Hittites occur regularly among the lists of nations to be driven out from Palestine ...” [Note: Arabs are not pure Semites, White people are.]
Now it might be possible that a few of the Hittites infiltrated (possibly by marriage or other means) into the royal families of the Assyrians, and that would account for the harsh treatment given to the Israelites at a later date. Egypt had gotten into a conflict with the Hittite empire, and after a long protracted war which neither side was able to win, they declared a truce, and showing a token of goodwill, they traded women for which Hittite women entered the Egyptian royal harem and polluted the pharaonic line. Thus, Comparet established a flawed premise that the Assyrians, generally as a people, were of the satanic-seedline of Cain.
Secondly, Comparet in this presentation quoted several passages of Scripture to support his flawed premise at Micah 5:5-6; Isaiah 14:24-26 & Zachariah 14:3-4 which are prophecies already fulfilled and are in the past! So when Comparet expresses “Assyrian Jewish communist”, he has no underpinning for such a statement. Had he dropped the “Assyrian” element from his various statements, everything he said about “Jewish communists” would be very appropriate. I also disagree with Comparet that the attack of Gog and Magog on America at Ezek. chs. 38-39 will be a two pronged attack on America and Palestine. Why would the Russian Hittite-jews attack the Palestinian Hittite-jews?
In support of Comparet’s assertions on the communist atrocities Louis Zoul’s Thugs and Communists states on page 89: “As fantastic as are the numbers of the crimes perpetrated by the Chinese Communist criminals, the criminals in Moscow undoubtedly surpass them. As recently as last September (1957), during the World Youth Festival, a courageous young Russian contrived to have a message recorded, on a tape recorder in the possession of one of the visitors to Russia, in which he endeavored to expose the festival as a sham to deceive foreigners about the true state of affairs in the Soviet inferno. He also mentioned, among other things, that ten percent of the population, or some 20,000,000 people, are in slave labor camps. I recollect that this was also the estimated population some thirty years ago. To anyone familiar with the atrocious conditions prevailing in these infernos, it is difficult to imagine anyone surviving more than five years in them; thus they must constantly be replenished with about 4,000,000 people each year, which, in thirty years, gives us a grand total of well over 100,000,000 people who were killed by slow torture. This, too, is a selective slaughter, lack of survility being the principal cause for incarceration.”
