In ancient times watchman would mount the city walls in times of stress to survey the scene outside the fortifications. He was situated on a spot from which he could monitor the approaches to the town. If a threat appeared, he would sound a warning and the town would shut its gates and prepare for battle.

Iran's President Believes Chavez Will Rise From the Dead, Like Jesus
End Of Days News
And as if returning to Earth alone was not enough, President Mahmud Ahmadinejad says Chavez will do so alongside some esteemed company.
"I have no doubt that he [Chavez] will return alongside Jesus Christ and the Mahdi [the Hidden Imam] to establish peace and justice in the world," Ahmadinejad wrote in an emotional condolence message posted on his personal website. The Mahdi is a revered figure among Shi'ite Muslims, many of whom believe he will return to save humanity.
Ahmadinejad, who had forged a close public friendship with Chavez, hailed his close ally for "serving the people of Venezuela and defending human and revolutionary values."
Iran has declared a national day of mourning in honor of Chavez's death, and Iranian media has said it was a "possibility" that Ahmadinejad would attend the funeral scheduled for March 8.
'Martyr'
Ahmadinejad also supported allegations made by Venezuelan Vice President Nicolas Maduro, who said shortly before Chavez's death that he had "no doubt" the country's enemies had somehow given the leftist leader the cancer from which he eventually died.
The death of Venezuelan leader Hugo Chavez has prompted eulogies from around the world, but few of the messages have been as eccentric as the second-coming predicted by Iran's president.

Obama will stand by Israeli security and pursuit of lasting peace
End Of Days News
On the US economy, Obama stressed “our first priority is making America a magnet for new jobs and manufacturing.”
Provocations will only further isolate North Korea, said US President Barack
Obama early Wednesday in his State of the Union speech, which was devoted mainly
to domestic US affairs.
Likewise, he added, Iran must recognize that “now is the
time for a diplomatic solution and we will do what is necessary to prevent them
getting a nuclear weapon.”
In a radio interview Wednesday, US Ambassador Dan Shapiro, asked if the US
president would urge Israel not to attack Iran in his coming visit, replied,
”Our full coordination on the military, intelligence and government levels will
continue as before for the purpose of preventing a nuclear Iran – if possible by
diplomacy, if not by any means on the table.”
Regarding that visit, the US president said the messages he would deliver
were: “We’ll keep the pressure on a Syrian regime that has murdered its own
people and support opposition leaders that respect the rights of every Syria.
And we will stand steadfast with Israel in pursuit of security and a lasting
peace.” In Egypt, he said, “we can and will insist on respect for the
fundamental rights of all people.”
