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.

Peaceful Islam speaks again: Ayatollah Tells Air Force: We Enriched Uranium 20%; Commanders: ‘Death to America, 'Death to England,' 'Death to Israel’
End Of Days News
In a speech delivered last month to commanders and other personnel in the Iranian Air Force, whom he described as “officials who have very sensitive occupations,” Grand Ayatollah Ali Khamenei—Iran’s Supreme Leader and commander in chief—boasted that Iran had enriched uranium to the 20-percent level.
At the same time, the Supreme Leader noted that his government had agreed to shut down its production of 20-percent enriched uranium “for a while” in its effort to reach a deal with United States and other foreign powers that would include lifting the sanctions now imposed on his country.
“It was a very great achievement to produce 20-percent uranium,” the ayatollah told a Feb. 8 Iranian Air Force gathering, according to a transcript posted on his website. MORE
Franklin Graham: Unlike Allah, 'God Does Not Need To Be Defended' "He needs no man to protect His honor."
End Of Days News
Evangelist Franklin Graham continues to use Facebook to send out messages in opposition to the threat of radical Islam on the world. This time, he used the opportunity to post the reason why he believes Christians and Muslims react differently to ridicule and insults.
"Our God does not need to be defended," Graham wrote on Saturday.
All of the ridicule and lampooning done against Jesus Christ was essentially absorbed as He was beaten and hung on a cross, Graham reasoned. Therefore, he adds, "He needs no man to protect His honor."
Graham said that on the Day of Judgment, God will have the last word as "all men bow before Him." MORE
College conservatives branded 'hate group' for refusing LGBT sensitivity training
End Of Days News
A conservative student group at a Washington, DC, college has been branded a “hate group” and fears it could lose its funding for refusing to take part in gay, lesbian and transgender-oriented sensitivity training.
Members of the Young America’s Foundation student organization at The George Washington University believe the traditional values they espouse merit a religious exemption from taking part in the training. They are asking the student government to allow them to sit out the LGBT sensitivity training, and a requirement that they use the “preferred pronouns” of the people they address or refer to.
“We are hoping that by voicing our opinion, other groups may follow our lead, resulting in the [student government] taking our request to heart,” Amanda Robbins, the group’s co-president, told The College Fix.
For now, there are no exemptions from the mandatory training for all sanctioned student groups, which Robbins believes represents intolerance toward conservative viewpoints.
Allied in Pride, a campus LGBT group, told The College Fix Young America’s Foundation is guilty of “intolerance and a pattern of hate” for inviting former Sen. Rick Santorum, a conservative Republican, to speak. The group also stated the conservative club’s funding should be revoked.
“The Young America’s Foundation is a political organization, not a religious one, so they cannot seek a religious exemption, and their refusal to use preferred gender pronouns should be considered an act of violence and a violation of the non-discrimination clause required in all GW student organizations’ Constitutions,” the group wrote on its Facebook page.
Young America’s Foundation Vice President Patrick Coyle said on the group’s Facebook page the school must exclude students who disagree with “prevailing leftist ideas that are pushed by the administration, faculty, and other liberal student groups.“ MORE

‘A SLAP IN THE FACE’: SHERIFF ORDERED TO REMOVE AMERICAN FLAG FROM COURTHOUSE
End Of Days News
A sheriff in Virginia is angered after being ordered to remove an American flag display from his local courthouse, in a move he is labeling “a slap in the face.”
The Portsmouth Fire Department recently gifted Sheriff Bill Watson’s office with a flag display crafted out of recycled fire hoses, complete with a sign that reads, “A Tribute to Public Safety.”
When Sheriff Watson attempted to have the display mounted in the lobby of the Portsmouth courthouse, however, judges blocked the effort claiming it would set the wrong precedent.
Sheriff Watson says the judges told him “Not only do we not want it on the wall, we don’t want it in the courthouse.”
“I just can’t believe that they don’t want to display the American flag in a courthouse, I mean that’s the most asinine thing I’ve ever heard in my life,” Sheriff Watson lamented to CBS affiliate NewsChannel3.
One of the judges, who preferred to remain anonymous, explained their position to reporters, saying the lobby was an inappropriate location for the display and was unnecessary. MORE
