George Washington is said to have had a prophetic dream of the invasion of the United States. There have been a lot of other people who have said the
same.
Now, consider the millions and millions of chinese men who have no hope of ever having a wife, and have no access to sex. That would be a pretty good
inducement to invade, wouldn't it? That they get to keep the spoils of war?
Dmitri Dudaman (sp?) claimed he was a prophet, and that the visions he had shows the Chinese invading from the west coast, and basically slaughtering,
pillaging, and raping (both literal and figurative) their way all the way to the Rocky Mountains. That Russia invades from the North (through
Canada), and Cuba, and some others invade through the Gulf of Mexico.
Do a web search on "invasion of america prophecy", and you'll find lots of it.
On a more practical level....
A west coast invasion would be easy. The chinese could pre-position all kinds of items, because they have control of some of the deep water ports
that were leased to them. Thus, once all the materials were in position, they could send troops on cargo ships, which we would never think would
contain people in that quantity. Imagine a 1,000 foot long "tanker", only it doesn't have oil in it, it has space for troops.
They could slaughter the men on the west coast, and take the women for prizes. What would stop them? Most people have no guns on the west coast any
more, and the same can be said for the east coast.
It's not until they start reaching inside the Rockies or the Appalachians that they have large numbers of civilians that are heavily armed. People,
as a general mindset (not any individual person), on the east and west coasts are pacifists, and don't like doing violence. People in the middle of
the country are more used to things like shooting and hunting.
If they did invade, the easiest way to take them out would be nukes, but it will be the exact thing that the armed forces WILL NOT be allowed to use,
even though it would end it very quickly.
More than likely, an armed invasion will be preceeded by an EMP attack and/or the nuking of several large cities, DC, Los Angeles, New York, etc.
If I were an enemy country intent on doing this, I would make it look like a "terrorist group" did the nuking, and slip in the troops while the
attention is focused internally.
10,000 troops would only take 20 747s (or the equivalent). 20 planes wouldn't even be a blip on the radar (so to speak) at LAX. That would be
another way they could slip in a bunch of soldiers, disguised as "students".
The trick is not in getting the troops here. That is actually much easier than people think it would be. The trick is getting the weapons here.
When you think of it in this scenario, it makes you wonder about why the Chinese were so quick to lease deep-water ports (and wonder why our
government was so quick to lease it to them).
Some people say that the following bible verses actually talk about America
Ezekiel 38:10-13 (KJV) (emphasis mine)
10Thus saith the Lord GOD; It shall also come to pass, that at the same time shall things come into thy mind, and thou shalt think an evil
thought:
11And thou shalt say, I will go up to the land of unwalled villages; I will go to them that are at rest, that dwell safely, all of them dwelling
without walls, and having neither bars nor gates,
12To take a spoil, and to take a prey; to turn thine hand upon the desolate places that are now inhabited, and upon the people that are gathered
out of the nations, which have gotten cattle and goods, that dwell in the midst of the land.
13Sheba, and Dedan, and the merchants of Tarshish, with all the young lions thereof, shall say unto thee, Art thou come to take a spoil? hast thou
gathered thy company to take a prey? to carry away silver and gold, to take away cattle and goods, to take a great spoil?
Those two underlined parts are an accurate description of the U.S. Although admittedly, the rest of that chapter talks about the State of Israel,
it's interesting that the prophecy says that "at that same time..." (meaning the invasion of Israel) before going into this prophecy.
How could anyone take a "great spoil" from Israel? They most certainly could take a "great spoil" (just in food, if nothing else) from the United
States.
But all this has just been speculation and free-thinking on my part. Believe what you want.
