Luke 21:7 “Teacher,” they asked, “when will all this happen? What sign will show us that these things are about to take place?” Luke 21:11 "There will be great earthquakes, and there will be famines and epidemics in many lands, and there will be terrifying things (that which strikes terror), and great miraculous signs in the heavens."

Despite our best efforts at making and keeping the peace, political, economic, and religious tensions often lead to unrest, violence, and riots.” Jim Bakker in “Prosperity and the Coming Apocalypse”</p>
A source working closely with US intelligence has identified a group within Al Qaeda Yemen whose entire purpose is designing attacks against the United States according to CNN.
The unit is working to help develop explosives that are designed to get back the X-Ray screening at major airports. The unit, based in southern Yemen, has yet to pull off a successful attack against American troops or civilians.
Gregory Johnsen, a Near East Studies scholar, told CNN that the organization is improving their quality of work.
“It seems the talent of the organization is getting better,” Johnsen said, “They are much more capable of carrying out attacks.”
Al Qaeda master bomb maker Ibrahim al-Asiri is now reportedly moving from making bombs himself to training bomb makers and suicide bombers.
Johnsen also said that in the last three years, Al Qaeda in Yemen has tripled in membership.
