send their massive forces into the Middle East. The
objective in the Middle East, he said, must be an enduring
PEACE. He well knew that was NOT the U.S.S.R. motive --
except a peace with Russia in power and all else surrendered
to Russia.

FRIDAY, October 26, 1973
A few hours after Mr. Kissinger's Press Conference gave
Russia the warning, the Kremlin backed down. President Nixon's
emergency alert of all U.S. forces worldwide, issued at
3:00 a.m., put all U.S. military forces on such stand-by alert,
that America's warplanes could have taken off on one second's
notice, with nuclear weapons that could destroy Moscow and all
Russian cities. It was this alerted show of FORCE that caused
the Russians to back down.
But the prospect of a direct military confrontation
between the U.S. and the U.S.S.R. is not yet over. No one can
know what a single day -- or hour -- may bring forth.
The IMPORTANT fact now, is that the nations of Europe
are going to realize how DANGEROUS TO THEM is the situation,
with the U.S.S.R. planning, in the very first opportunity, to
take over all the Middle East. Given the opportunity, Russia
would take over the Mediterranean, all the Arab oil sources,
the Suez Canal -- everything in the Middle East. All Europe
would be at Russia's mercy.
This situation MAY BE the event that could trigger a
CRASH PROGRAM to UNITE the nations of Europe into one super-
power possibly stronger than either the U.S. or Russia.
In the current issue of The PLAIN TRUTH (November
issue) is a most significant article on "The Continuing Crisis
in the CATHOLIC CHURCH." This crisis could lead the Vatican
to offer its services to UNITING the nations of Europe. The
nations of Europe are HUNGRY for full political union. But
they do not know how to bring it about.
Biblical prophecy says IT WILL HAPPEN. No one
political leader in Europe could bring it about. Only a
STRONG AUTHORITY, one all European nations could look to, can
achieve it. The Pope could be that authority.
It would become a Roman Catholic union of nations,
combining Church and State. This would solve the problems of
the Church. It would give the European nations a military and
economic POWER probably greater than the U.S. or Russia.
European nations feel they NEED THIS SECURITY!
The events of yesterday and today could be the events
that finally trigger this gigantic prophecy fulfillment.
