Richard and Veronica Toussaint Lehmann - Tracking, prophecies, 2011 ... Nostradamus restores (his) truth

Imagine that one day the spirit of Nostradamus asks you to send messages to your peers ...

The human adventure is just ordinary young woman arrived in a medium, in 90 years.

V?ronique Lehmann who has developed a sixth sense obviously has a habit of communicating with guides, master of the invisible.

One day it Nostradamus who rang his conscious. He had something to say, to restore the truths about his life, his soul, his heart. He asked her to work in tandem with a man gifted in the letters, to write the book "Masters of Nostradamus."

Richard Toussaint, brother of the medium, and vibrant human spirituality, has endorsed this important responsibility. The book, which was published in 2003, does not intend to make further predictions of the visionary.

In this collection, the great Michel de Nostradamus, is just his mea culpa and talks about his personal life, frankly. He shares his mistakes and weaknesses. He runs down a weight to move forward on the path to eternity, the soul lighter.

Need to Know met Richard Toussaint, author of "Masters of Nostradamus."

Under what conditions Nostradamus issued its first mail to V?ronique Lehmann?

Richard Toussaint: In the 80s, I read several books, including "The Oracles of Michel de Nostradamus." This is to tell you that I became interested in Nostradamus, before we met "official".

V?ronique Lehmann medium since his teens. In 1986, she began to receive messages from entities beyond, which announced that Nostradamus was trying to talk to him. Veronica is my sister and she told me about this, because even if I am not at all medium or light, I am always interested in spirituality. She knows she can tackle these difficult issues with me.

Veronica has been selected by Nostradamus. There is no chance. The family of Veronica named "Lehmann" would root the same as that of Michel de Nostradamus. Also, Nostradamus, in one of its portents No. V of March 1555, was in black and white with the initials of that which would be his channel.

Nostradamus: "My heart was sad but my soul knew that one day the messages will not go out and someone I would like my donation LV, then begins."

She agreed.

The spirit of Nostradamus is in the parallel world and energy touched the aura of Veronica. The first messages arrived as well. Nostradamus wanted to rewrite his biography is to be seen to be as it was.

What were the messages of Nostradamus?

Richard Toussaint: He wanted, through his messages, show the weakness of his heart and the harm it could do to people who loved him. We talked about what makes her evil spirit and his personal life.

I recall that Michel de Nostradamus was a great man - doctor astrophile, visionary, clairvoyant, numerologist, he saved many lives ... The Queen Catherine de Medici took him under his wing and assured him full protection.

Under this heroic image and mysterious, there is a man, unfaithful, who showed cowardice in his private life. Nostradamus would restore its truth, to wash their sins. To do this, he asked us to talk about his first wife and two children.

There are dozens of books on Nostradamus. We can say without any claim that Veronica and I have written the only book on this staff truly colorful character.

His predictions and interpretations? All this was not important to him, he just wanted to free himself by speaking of his personal tragedies, his mistakes.
V?ronique Lehmann and Richard Toussaint authors of the book''The Masters of Nostradamus''published by Publibook

What has he passed on his wife Henriette and her first two children?

Richard Toussaint: In 28 years, Nostradamus has been one that would become his wife, Henriette. They had a son, Michael, and daughter, Veronica. Nostradamus was a womanizer. His wife became known and she has suffered.

It was the sixteenth century, the plague carried off things at lightning speed. Nostradamus had gone to Montpellier, where he received his MD and his wife was home alone with the children. Within days, the Plague won her two children. Henriette, mad with grief and desperately alone, then committed suicide.

Nostradamus was unable to manage his pain, he fled. But the memory of his wife and children was in him at all times. Of course, he remade his life, he remarried in 1547, he had six other children. But he never forgot ... And he never forgave his absence, his cowardice.

After the death of his first wife and two children, he embarked on spiritualism, with the assistance of the sect of Montemor. He has continued to mend the relationship with Henriette and small, across the border of the invisible.

Nostradamus Henriette asked me to write was "being the most deserving." He explained that it was "a man the day and at night a cockroach." Through our writings, he asked "Excuse me." Today Veronica is the first to know: Nostradamus is very happy because we have restored the truth. He is at peace.

Nostradamus did he talk about his famous prophecies?

Richard Toussaint: The purpose of our communication through V?ronique, concerned his private life. Yes, throughout our relationship between earth and sky, the soul of Nostradamus told us about his predictions.

We found several things.

First of all, his prophecies, according to the various and varied interpretations, would stop in 3797. Nostradamus himself acknowledged that this date was incorrect. It seems he stopped his prophecies to the 2000s. Then we confessed that much of "The letter to Caesar" was wrong ....

2011: Nostradamus announces break

Nostradamus seems to confirm some of these against predictions that concern us: advances in research on diseases of cancer and AIDS, a war that would move Muslim deep and long the global warming, natural disasters increase, and ultimately the end of life caused by a nuclear explosion ...

The year 2011 has always stood out in his remarks.

It will mark a priori a rupture, a profound change, a transformation. In 1992, he said "2011, wind, many deaths, the end of the world." It should be noted that for the beings of the afterlife, the world is full of "small worlds": political, medical, artistic, Christian, Muslim, Asian ... .. etc.. So the end of the world does not mean the end of life but the loss of a way of life, a certain serenity to one of its components.

In general, what we must remember, these are "the advice of friends" of Nostradamus and souls of the afterlife: they want to help us in our spiritual evolution. V?ronique has been in contact with superior souls, like angels, M?diteurs, communications.

All we ask God to place, very high, on earth as in heaven. Meditation is they believe essential to our progress. We must reconnect to the current communication divine.La understanding between people will be improved. They say "you deserve what you meditate."

These souls told us that we humans are in the world over. All that we live, they have already seen. They know the future of humanity. On the other hand, they therefore try to help us, put us on track, but they are terribly afraid of humans and its ability to self-destruct, and to pollute the earth.

Entities that relate to their world, they wash the earth, literally as figuratively. They want to finally we learn to live on earth, because life has meaning, it is sacred.

Whether Nostradamus, making his mea culpa, or superior souls that speak of the visible and the invisible, all invite us to take the path of love and understanding.

Man must evolve up the ranks to regain its divine essence. Finally, our guides will repeat the same thing, but we are able to hear it?

Excerpt: "Men do not respect their environment, you breathe an air bad. Password again they do not respect nature given to them, but between them, creatures of the same blood, they clash constantly, here God does not take it anymore. More than ever we must love one another "

Turkey Predicts Alliance With Egypt as Regional Anchors

ANKARA, Turkey ? A newly assertive Turkey offered on Sunday a vision of a starkly realigned Middle East, where the country?s former allies in Syria and Israel fall into deeper isolation, and a burgeoning alliance with Egypt underpins a new order in a region roiled by revolt and revolution.
Burhan Ozbilici/Associated Press

Turkey's foreign minister, Ahmet Davutoglu, predicted an ?axis of democracy? in his region.

The portrait was described by Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu of Turkey in an hourlong interview before he was to leave for the United Nations, where a contentious debate was expected this week over a Palestinian bid for recognition as a state. Viewed by many as the architect of a foreign policy that has made Turkey one of the most relevant players in the Muslim world, Mr. Davutoglu pointed to that issue and others to describe a region in the midst of a transformation. Turkey, he said, was ?right at the center of everything.?

He declared that Israel was solely responsible for the near collapse in relations with Turkey, once an ally, and he accused Syria?s president of lying to him after Turkish officials offered the government there a ?last chance? to salvage power by halting its brutal crackdown on dissent.

Strikingly, he predicted a partnership between Turkey and Egypt, two of the region?s militarily strongest and most populous and influential countries, which he said could create a new axis of power at a time when American influence in the Middle East seems to be diminishing.

?This is what we want,? Mr. Davutoglu said.

?This will not be an axis against any other country ? not Israel, not Iran, not any other country, but this will be an axis of democracy, real democracy,? he added. ?That will be an axis of democracy of the two biggest nations in our region, from the north to the south, from the Black Sea down to the Nile Valley in Sudan.?

His comments came after a tour last week by Turkish leaders ? Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan and Mr. Davutoglu among them ? of Tunisia, Egypt and Libya, the three Arab countries that have undergone revolutions this year. His criticism of old allies and embrace of new ones underscored the confidence of Turkey these days, as it tries to position itself on the winning side in a region unrecognizable from a year ago.

Unlike an anxious Israel, a skeptical Iran and a United States whose regional policy has been criticized as seeming muddled and even contradictory at times, Turkey has recovered from early missteps to offer itself as a model for democratic transition and economic growth at a time when the Middle East and northern Africa have been seized by radical change. The remarkably warm reception of Turkey in the Arab world ? a region Turks once viewed with disdain ? is a development almost as seismic as the Arab revolts and revolutions themselves.

Mr. Davutoglu credited a ?psychological affinity? between Turkey and much of the Arab world, which was ruled by the Ottoman Empire for four centuries from Istanbul.

The foreign minister, 52, remains more scholar than politician, though he has a diplomat?s knack for bridging divides. Cerebral and soft-spoken, he offered a speech this summer to Libyan rebels in Benghazi ? in Arabic. Soon after the revolution in Tunisia, he hailed the people there as the ?sons of Ibn Khaldoun,? one of the Arab world?s greatest philosophers, born in Tunis in the 14th century. ?We?re not here to teach you,? he said. ?You know what to do. Ibn Khaldoun?s grandsons deserve the best political system.?

That sense of cultural affinity has facilitated Turkey?s entry into the region, as has the successful model of Mr. Davutoglu?s Justice and Development Party, whose deeply pious leaders have won three consecutive elections, presided over a booming economy and inaugurated reform that has made Turkey a more liberal, modern and confident place. Mr. Erdogan?s defense of Palestinian rights and criticism of Israel ? relations between Turkey and Israel collapsed after Israeli troops killed nine people on board a Turkish flotilla trying to break the blockade of Gaza in 2010 ? has bolstered his popularity.

Last week, Mr. Erdogan was afforded a rapturous welcome in Egypt, where thoroughfares were adorned with his billboard-size portraits. (?Lend us Erdogan for a month!? wrote a columnist in Al Wafd, an Egyptian newspaper.)

Mr. Davutolglu, who accompanied him there, said Egypt would become the focus of Turkish efforts, as an older American-backed order, buttressed by Israel, Saudi Arabia and, to a lesser extent, prerevolutionary Egypt, begins to crumble. On the vote over a Palestinian state, the United States, in particular, finds itself almost completely isolated.

He also predicted that Turkey?s $1.5 billion investment in Egypt would grow to $5 billion within two years and that total trade would increase to $5 billion, from $3.5 billion now, by the end of 2012, then $10 billion by 2015. As if to underscore the importance Turkey saw in economic cooperation, 280 businessmen accompanied the Turkish delegation, and Mr. Davutoglu said they signed about $1 billion in contracts in a single day.

?For democracy, we need a strong economy,? he said.

Other countries ? Iran, Saudi Arabia and Israel ? would undoubtedly look upon an Egyptian-Turkish axis with alarm. Just a year ago, Egypt?s own president, Hosni Mubarak, viewed Turkey, and Mr. Erdogan in particular, with skepticism and suspicion. But in the view of Mr. Davutoglu, such an alliance was a force for stability.

?For the regional balance of power, we want to have a strong, very strong Egypt,? said Mr. Davutoglu, who has visited the Egyptian capital five times since Mr. Mubarak was overthrown in February. ?Some people may think Egypt and Turkey are competing. No. This is our strategic decision. We want a strong Egypt now.?

The phrase ?zero problems? is a famous dictum written by Mr. Davutoglu, who served as Mr. Erdogan?s chief foreign policy adviser before becoming foreign minister. By it, he meant that Turkey would strive to end conflicts with its neighbors. Successes have been few. Problems remain with Armenia, and Turkey was unable to resolve the conflict in Cyprus, still divided into Greek and Turkish zones. Turkey?s agreement to host a radar installation as part of a NATO missile defense system has rankled neighboring Iran.

Most spectacularly, its relations with Israel collapsed after the Israeli government refused a series of Turkish demands that followed the attack on the boat: an apology, compensation for the victims and a lifting of Israel?s blockade on the Gaza Strip.

?Nobody can blame Turkey or any other country in the region for its isolation,? he said of Israel. ?It was Israel and the government?s decision to isolate themselves. And they will be isolated even more if they continue this policy of rejecting any proposal.?

Caught by surprise by the Arab revolts ? as pretty much everyone was ? Turkey staggered. At least $15 billion in investments were lost in the civil war in Libya, and Turkish diplomats initially opposed NATO?s intervention. For years, Turkey cultivated ties with Syria?s president, Bashar al-Assad, seeing Syria as its fulcrum for integrating the region?s economies. Mr. Erdogan and Mr. Assad counted themselves as friends.

Syria?s failure to ? as Mr. Davutoglu put it ? heed Turkey?s advice has wrecked relations, and Turkey is now hosting Syrian opposition conferences and groups.

Last month, in meetings that lasted more than six hours, Mr. Davutoglu said Mr. Assad agreed on a Turkish road map ? announcing a specific date for parliamentary elections by year?s end, repealing a constitutional provision that enshrined power in the ruling Baath Party, drafting a constitution by the newly elected Parliament and then holding another election once the constitution decided between a presidential or a parliamentary system. Despite face-to-face assurances, Mr. Assad did not follow through.

?For us, that was the last chance,? Mr. Davutoglu said.

Asked if he felt betrayed, he replied, ?Yes, of course.?

Mr. Davutoglu accused Mr. Assad of ?not fulfilling promises and not telling the truth.?

?This is the illusion of autocratic regimes,? he said. ?They think that in a few days they will control the situation. Not today, but tomorrow, next week, next month. They don?t see. And this is a vicious circle.?

France: Iran faces high risk of military strike. Russia practices Iranian reprisal

France's UN Ambassador Gerard Araud warned Wednesday, Sept. 28 that Iran runs a high risk of a military strike if it continues on the path to nuclear proliferation. "Some countries won't accept the prospect of Tehran reaching the threshold of nuclear armament," he said. "Personally I am convinced that it would be a very complicated operation …with disastrous consequences in the region."
Ambassador Araud's comment confirmed reports from debkafile's military sources in recent months that US and European sanctions against Iran had been ineffectual and the ayatollahs had no intention of slowing down on their drive for a nuclear weapon.
The French diplomat was not the only one to raise the alarm this week about regional war clouds circling over Iran.
Sept. 9-26, the Russian army, joined by Kazakhstan, Tajikistan and Kyrgyzstan, deployed 12,000 troops in a huge combined military exercise code-named Center-2011 which simulated an Iranian attack on Caspian oil fields operated by American firms in reprisal for a US strike against Iranian nuclear sites.

Russian intelligence postulated an instantaneous Iranian reprisal for this strike and based the war game staged by Russian-led Collective Rapid Force and the Collective Rapid Deployment Forces of the Central Asian Region –CSTO – on this assumption.
Our military sources disclose that the forces taking part in the exercise were briefed for a two-stage scenario:
Stage One: An naval attack on the Caspian Sea coast coming from the south (Iran).
Stage Two: A large-scale air and ground attack from the south by 70 F-4 and F-5 fighter-bombers, namely, the bulk of Iran's air force, along with armored divisions, marine battalions and infantry brigades landing on the northern and eastern shores of the Caspian Sea.
The Russian briefing conjectured that the Iranian offensive would single out the Kazakh oil field at Mangustan on the Caspian coast, a field which debkafile reports Exxon Mobile is operating.

Moscow clearly attached the highest importance to the exercise and extreme credibility to the hypothetical scenario. Russian chief of staff Gen. Nikolai Makarov personally commanded the drills and on Monday, Sept. 26, President Dmitry Medvedev toured the field commands and units.

Tehran was not idle: Tuesday, the day before the war game ended, Adm. Habibollah Sayyari, commander of the Iranian Navy, stated that Iranian warships would be deployed "close to US territorial waters," since the Islamic Republic of Iran considers the US presence in the Persian Gulf "illegitimate and makes no sense."

After Tehran rejected a recent US request to establish a "red phone" link between the countries to avoid unwanted confrontation between their armed forces in the Gulf region, Ali Fadavi, Revolutionary Guards (IRGC) Navy chief, commented enigmatically: "When we are in the Gulf of Mexico, we will establish direct contact with the United States."

A significant remark on the intentions of another nuclear rogue government came from Peter Hughes, the British Ambassador to North Korea, when he stopped over in Seoul on his way home from a three-year tenure in Pyongyang.
"I have had discussions with high-level officials, who have made clear to me their view that if Colonel Qaddafi had not given up his nuclear weapons, then NATO would not have attacked his country," he said.

The ambassador therefore held out little hope of the long-stalled US-South Korea talks with the North resumed lately getting anywhere on Pyongyang's denuclearization.

All these ominous events – pointed comments by French and British diplomats and the large-scale Russian-Central Asian war game – add up to widespread skepticism about any chance of halting Iran's race for a nuclear weapon or disarming North Korea.

Turkish warships harass Israeli freighters. Israeli missile boats off Cyprus

Increasingly assertive Turkey is setting the scene for clashes in the eastern Mediterranean. Since Thursday, Sept. 29, Turkish warships have been harassing Israeli merchant vessels in waters off Cyprus, debkafile's military sources report. They come close enough to establish wireless communication and caution the Israeli vessels they are in contravention of international law and ordering them to change course. The Israeli crews mostly ignore these "orders", treating them as Ankara's latest bid to assert Turkish naval mastery of the Eastern Mediterranean. But the situation is getting explosive enough to spark a major incident.
Over the weekend, Israeli Air Force planes circled near the sites of the incidents but not directly over the Turkish vessels. At the same time Israeli missile ships sailed close to Cyprus's Exclusive Economic Zone waters, where the Houston-based Noble Energy began drilling for natural gas on Sept. 19 in the face of Turkish threats. The rig is situated 160 kilometers south of Cyprus adjacent to Israel's Leviathan gas field.

Western naval sources tracking the new Turkish and Israeli deployments reported Saturday, Oct. 1: "Turkey and Israel are in a constant muscle-flexing contest in the eastern Mediterranean. They are metaphorically shaking fists in each other's faces and raising the risk of a confrontation that could quickly veer out of control."

Last week, Ankara retaliated for Cypriot and Israeli deep sea gas explorations by sending an exploration ship of its own escorted by a frigate and a submarine to Cyprus. Ankara sources also disclosed that Turkish F-16 fighters had been deployed in the northern part of the island.
Voicing concern over Turkey's assertiveness, NATO secretary-general, Anders Fogh Rasmussen, Friday, Sept. 30, said: "Obviously, the tensions between Turkey and Israel are a matter of concern. It's a bilateral issue – NATO is not going to interfere with that. But it is the interest of the alliance to see these tensions eased, because Turkey is a key ally and Israel is a valuable partner for the alliance."

The NATO Secretary contradicted Ankara's claim that Israel would not be allowed to open an office at alliance headquarters in Brussels. "NATO defense ministers agreed during the meeting in April that NATO partners can have offices… This includes all partners," he said.

Referring to concern about the tensions over natural gas exploration "between Turkey and Cyprus as well as Israel," Rasmussen said: "I urge all parties to find peaceful solutions to disputes through constructive dialogue." He said he did not expect armed clashes in the region. However, he suggested that Turkey has to be managed carefully as it asserts a growing role on the global stage.

Also Saturday, Cyprus President Dimitris Christofias had this message for Ankara: "I wish to underline to all those who attempt to question this right of the Republic of Cyprus: our sovereign rights are non-negotiable."
Five days ago, the prime ministers of Greece and Turkey, George Papandreou and Tayyip Erdogan talked by phone. And four days ago, Adm. James Stavridis, Commander of NATO forces in Europe, flew to Ankara directly from Israel for talks with Turkish leaders.

Turkish harassment of Israeli cargo vessels began after those interchanges, indicating that the Erdogan government has no intention of meeting exasperated US and NATO efforts to cool rising tensions in the eastern Mediterranean.

Greece: Purchase of 400 M1A1 Abrams tanks for ten million dollars

According to information of the “Hellenic Defence & Technology” magazine, the U.S. authorities approved to grant 400 M1A1 Abrams tanks to the Greek Army, which will include options between simple refurbishment – worth tens of millions dollars for all the tanks- and upgrading to a higher level of operational capability, with a higher corresponding cost. The relative Letter of Offer and Acceptance (LOA) is expected soon.

Also according to exclusive information of the 'Hellenic Defence & Technology' magazine, a Price and Availability letter was sent to U.S. authorities regarding 20 AAV7A1 and a low cost upgrade program for them. This is the first step to cover an operational requirement for 75-100 vehicles.

Iran reactor disaster warning from whistleblower

IRAN'S first nuclear power station is unsafe and will probably cause a "tragic disaster" according to a document apparently written by an Iranian whistleblower.

The Bushehr reactor is likely to cause the next nuclear catastrophe after Chernobyl and Fukushima, says the document, passed to The Times by a reputable source and attributed to a former member of the Atomic Energy Organisation of Iran's legal department.

It claims Bushehr, which began operating last month after 35 years of intermittent construction, was built by "second-class engineers" who bolted together Russian and German technology from different eras; that it sits in one of the world's most seismically active areas but could not withstand a major earthquake; and that it has "no serious training program" or a contingency plan for accidents.

The document's authenticity cannot be confirmed, but nuclear experts see no reason to doubt it. It also echoes fears in the nuclear industry about the safety of a secretive project to which few outsiders have had access. Iran is the only country with a nuclear plant that has not joined the Convention on Nuclear Safety, which obliges signatories to observe international safety standards.

Sami Alfaraj, head of the Kuwait Centre for Strategic Studies and an adviser to the Kuwaiti government, said an accident at Bushehr would be a "total calamity for the world", in which nuclear contamination would spew across a wide region.

He could not assess Bushehr's safety because Iran's co-operation with its neighbours had been "nil".

"They say trust us, but there's no such thing as trust us in nuclear politics. They are playing Russian roulette not just with us but with the world."

Bushehr began in 1975 when the shah of Iran awarded the contract to Kraftwerk Union of Germany.

When the German company pulled out after the 1979 Islamic revolution the two reactors were far from finished, and they were damaged during the Iran-Iraq war of 1980-88.

Airstrikes left the containment vessel with 1700 holes, letting in hundreds of tonnes of rainwater.

The regime revived the project in the 1990s, but with one reactor only. It wanted a prestige project to show that the Islamic Republic could match the scientific achievements of the West.

It may also have wanted cover for its nuclear weapons program - and the opportunities for personal enrichment the project gave Iran's elite. This time, Iran used Russian engineers, who had not built a foreign reactor since the Soviet Union collapsed in 1989. Russia's experts wanted to start from scratch. The Iranians, having already spent more than $US1 billion, insisted they built on the German foundations.

This involved adapting a structure built for a vertical German reactor to take a horizontal Russian reactor - an unprecedented operation. Of the 80,000 pieces of German equipment, many were corroded or lacked manuals.

Moscow's Centre for Energy and Security Studies, an independent think tank, identified a "shortage of skilled Russian engineering and construction specialists with suitable experience". It spoke of "frequent problems with quality and deadlines" as "every (Russian) subcontractor tried to milk the Bushehr project for all it's worth". In February a 30-year-old German cooling pump broke, sending metal debris into the system.
