DK CIRCUIT RIDE VII – DAYS 15-20: “WAR!”

Having traversed the entire expanse of the Southern States (Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Florida, Georgia, South & North Carolina, Virginia all the way up to New York, I then moved across the  Midwestern States of Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana, Michigan, to the Northwestern states of Nebraska, Wyoming, Montana, Idaho, Washington, and Oregon. I am now drafting this from my old hometown of Stockton, California and plan to deliver this from my beloved North Coast near Big Sur on Sunday, June 22, 2025 (marking years are become important to me lately!).

WAR DRUMS. As of today (Saturday, June 21, 2025), we learned that President Trump violated his pledge to give two more weeks for negotiations with Iran to take place. I don’t yet have the military intel details on the scale of the attack, but as my rather still-secular minded daughter Christina’s fiancé, Marcin, said it to his many pro-Trump friends: “Thanks all you stupid Trumpers for igniting World War III!”

I told him he was dead on.

“When He (the Lamb) broke the second seal, I heard the second living creature call out, ‘Come.’ And another, a fiery red horse [of bloodshed], came out; and its rider was empowered to take peace from the earth, so that men would slaughter one another; and a great sword [of war and violent death] was given to him.” – THE SECOND SEAL, REV. 6:3-4, AMP

THE VISITS. Now to happier things, I highlight the wonderful members of our little Remnant Clan from my time with them spent in the Northwestern States enumerated earlier.

• SHALOM & JESS M. Hiding one of the rather distinctive names here, plus their two small children (Adeline and Theodore), to protect the innocent once again.

• SOPHIA W. Though I spaced on this promised visit, I make up for it somewhat to profile one of the most precious young ladies my wife and I have ever met.

• AMY H. Well now, many of you know “Miss Amy” who is a little fireball on her own social media channels (TikTok, YouTube, Instagram), so this was a special visit for me indeed.

• JULIAN & NORA C. These are my wife’s Filipino relatives and some of the most gracious (and savvy) people I have ever known.

• “JEWISH FRIEND.” Asking to not be named given his sensitive position as a conservative against Trump in his Jewish community, one from whom I learn much.

• ROAD FOLKS. Again, one of the great joys of the Circuit Ride is to meet complete strangers along the way who work in Starbucks, motels, gas stations, stores and other places where I have an opportunity to chat with them a bit. This time it was “Molly,” “Ben,” and a Black “Basketball Coach,” “Andres,” and “Lea.” All who blessed me so greatly.

TRUMP & IRAN. The U.S. military has joined with Israel to launch military strikes against Iran, a dramatic escalation in the years-long effort by both nations to prevent Tehran from acquiring a nuclear weapon.

“We have completed our very successful attack on the three Nuclear sites in Iran, including Fordow, Natanz, and Esfahan,” President Trump wrote on Truth Social on Saturday.

“All planes are now outside of Iran air space. A full payload of BOMBS was dropped on the primary site, Fordow. All planes are safely on their way home. Congratulations to our great American Warriors. There is not another military in the World that could have done this. NOW IS THE TIME FOR PEACE! Thank you for your attention to this matter.”

Trump said in a subsequent post that he would address the nation at 10 p.m. ET. Saturday’s attack marks the first act of direct military involvement by the U.S. in the rapidly escalating conflict between Iran and Israel.Pool Report, “US Completes Strikes on Iran’s Nuclear sites, Trump Says,” NPR, June 21, 2025, 8:05 pm, EDT; edited

CONSEQUENCES. The Israel – Iran conflict is quickly escalating and the U.S. and Donald Trump appear to be getting involved in the Middle East conflict. On the evening of Saturday, June 21, the President confirmed that the United States had carried out an airstrike on Iran, specifically targeting three nuclear facilities: Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan.

And beyond this open conflict, an escalation between the U.S. and either China or Russia could lead to military conflict either with China trying to retake Taiwan by force or a direct clash between NATO and Russia. 65% and 69%, respectively, of respondents to the Atlantic Council’s Scowcroft Center for Strategy and Security 2025 Global Foresight survey somewhat or strongly agreed that these scenarios could come to pass within the next decade.

More than 40 percent of those surveyed expected there to be a global conflict on multiple fronts among the great powers. Of those predicting World War III, nearly two thirds expected nuclear weapons to be used. Two out three of them foresee such a conflict playing out in space as well.

Those who the United States would draft first if there were a war. Nearly all male U.S. citizens and male immigrants, regardless of immigration status, are required under federal law to register for Select Service within 30 days of turning age 18. Late registrations are allowed until a man reaches his 26th birthday, but failure to do so is considered a felony and can result in penalties.

In the event of a national emergency, the nation could call upon those registered to fill the ranks of the U.S. Armed Forces through conscription, normally called a draft. In order for that to happen the first step would be a “draft authorization.” This would require “Congress to amend the Military Selective Service Act to authorize the President to induct personnel into the Armed Forces.”

Next the Selective Service system would be activated and all service personnel would be ordered to report for duty. “Reserve Force Officers, along with selected military retirees, begin to open Area Offices to accept registrant claims.”

Step three would be “the lottery” which is “a random drawing of birthdays and numbers, establishes the sequence in which individuals receive orders to report for induction.” The lottery would be “publicly attended, nationally televised and live-streamed.”

“The first to receive induction orders are those whose 20th birthday falls during the year of the lottery,” states the sequence of events for the Selective Service. If additional lotteries were needed the sequence would begin with those who during that year turn 21 and then go progressively higher in age until 25. Then a lottery for those turning 19 would be conducted and finally 18.5 year-olds.

Those called up would either provide personnel to the Department of Defense or, if authorized by the President and Congress, alternative service for conscientious objectors.

After each lottery, induction notices are issued with orders to report to a local Military Entrance Processing Station (MEPS). Once a notice has been received, “registrants may now make claims if desired for a postponement, deferment or exemption.” At the MEPS, inductees will be given a physical, mental, and moral evaluation to determine whether they are fit for military service. Those that are will go into military service and those that aren’t will be sent home.

The first inductees must be delivered to the military within 193 days from the draft authorization due to the national emergency. You can check out the different classifications that would be put into effect if a draft were authorized on the Selective Service website. – “If World War III Erupts, These Are the First US Citizens to Get Drafted,” AS, June 21, 2025, 9:46 pm, EDT; edited

DK’S TAKE. To cut to the chase once again, I refer to my book’s summary of the FIVE WARS that Scripture prophecies that will occur in the Last Days: a Second Civil War, the Psalm 83 War, the Damascus War, the Ezekiel War, and the Final War of Armageddon.

In short: The Fuse is now lit in the rapid runup to SEALS 3-6: Economic Collapse, Pestilence, Martyrdom, and finally, God’s Wrath. To this severest of two points that can no longer be ignored, except at our own perils:

Wake up! And second, Make Ready!

BLESSED ASSURANCE. “But keep alert at all times [be attentive and ready], praying that you may have the strength and ability [to be found worthy and] to escape all these things that are going to take place, and to have kept the word of My endurance [My command to persevere], I will keep you [safe] from the hour of trial, that hour which is about to come on the whole [inhabited] world, to test those who live on the earth.” – LUKE 21:36; REVELATION 3:10 AMP

These last two passages are the “Words in Red,” the very Commands from the lips of Yeshua ben David. Can they be doubted with impunity, beloved? Of course not! Therefore, be deeply encouraged that our Finest Hour is just ahead, so long as we are Prepared for Him by our obedient service and our sacred honor, unto Life, or unto Death – whichever He chooses.

Selah. Selah.
