Visions of 1933: President Roosevelt Helped Lead The World To War?

President Roosevelt:  Innocent Bystander Or Deliberately Helping to Bring the Entire World into World War II

“I seen it, thirty–1931. Seven things happened. I got it right on paper here with me, wrote it in 1931. How that I said, “This President, Franklin D. Roosevelt, he will cause all the world, help do it, send the world to war.” Hadn’t come to war yet, during times of depression. I said, “Another thing…” And my mother, a square-back Democrat, if she didn’t look at me hard when I said that. I said, “I don’t care if there’s a Republican or if he was a Socialist or whatever he is, this is THUS SAITH THE LORD.” ~Jezebel Religion 61-0319″

The goal of this article is to show that the prophecy given to William Marrion Branham as one of the 7 great prophecies to occur before the Lord’s return, was perfectly fulfilled in EVERY word. Franklin Delano Roosevelt did in fact HELP to bring the ENTIRE World into War culminating in the Formation of the United Nation to “defeat the powers of Hitlerism.”

Bringing America Into WWII, and helping to bring the ENTIRE world into War with Germany.

American Isolation

To set up the political context that President Roosevelt had to deal with in bringing American interests to fight against the Axis, one must understand that the sentiment of the American people since WW1,  was one of Isolation, that being, international isolation from getting involved in foreign conflicts.  In fact,  Americans were polled and 90% were recorded as not wanting to be a part of another war.  Congress was so set against involvement in international matters that it passed the Neutrality pact.

   In 1933, President Roosevelt proposed a Congressional measure that would have granted him the right to consult with other nations and place pressure on aggressors in international conflicts.  The bill ran into strong opposition from the leading isolationists in Congress…http://history.state.gov/milestones/1937-1945/AmericanIsolationism

·         The isolationists then succeeded in passing the Neutrality Pact

• • On August 31, 1935, Congress passed the first Neutrality Act prohibiting the export of “arms, ammunition, and implements of war” from the United States to foreign nations at war and requiring arms manufacturers in the United States to apply for an export license.  American citizens traveling in war zones were also advised that they did so at their own risk.  President Franklin D. Roosevelt originally opposed the legislation but relented in the face of strong Congressional and public opinion.  On February 29, 1936, Congress renewed the Act until May of 1937 and prohibited Americans from extending any loans to belligerent nations.

Roosevelt’s Policies leading America into WW 2

Roosevelt’s policies helping to lead the United States and the rest of the world into war are historic fact.

Due to the Isolationism and Neutrality acts, Roosevelt resorted to methods which involved deceiving the American public with declarations that he had no intention of leading the United States into war, while at the same time doing everything possible to provoke Germany and Japan into attacking.  He also formed agreements with Britain, and Moscow, that eventually culminated in the Declaration of the United Nations January 1, 1942 supplied England with arms(1940), and Russia with millions of tons of supplies, which in doing, he broke the Neutrality Act. That being said, America still didn’t enter the war until Dec 8, 1941.

The following timeline of events show Roosevelt’s determined plan that included political agreements with the UK(which include European alliances,) Agreements to  supply Russia with materiale’ supplies, coordinated military planning, deterioration of diplomatic relations with Japan, and finally the formation of the United Nations as a result of all these previous actions clearly demonstrating President Roosevelt’s HELPING to lead the entire world into war.  No other world leader had the resources to accomplish what President Roosevelt was able to coordinate, using a wide spectrum of political devices, coordinating an international representation of nations, and all at a time when the United States declared position was neutrality and isolationism..  This is by no means a comprehensive list, but it is certainly evidence of clear fullfillment of exactly the Vision given to bro. Branham. 

1. June 11, 1939 President Roosevelt meets with the King of England and discusses the likely oncoming aggression with Germany.  The handwritten transcript of the Kings notes contain information on how FDR will try to sell the war to American farmers, protection of the Canadian coastline, Aeroplane assembly plants in Canada, Financial assistance for Roumania, and various naval patrols.
   1. https://fdrlibrary.org/documents/356632/390886/royal_kingnotestranscript.pdf/a35f77c8-7354-4284-a33b-98ca1725aa6
   2. This was a clear departure from the requirements of neutrality and was also a violation of some specific American laws.  Indeed, a conference of top government lawyers at the time concluded that the destroyer deal put this country into the war, legally and morally.
2. The exchange of American destroyers for British bases in the Caribbean and in Newfoundland in September 1940.
3. The enactment of the Lend-Lease Act in March, 1941.
4. The secret American-British staff talks in Washington in January-March, 1941.
   1. Extraordinary care was taken to conceal not only the contents of these talks, but the very fact that they were taking place from the knowledge of Congress. At the time when the administration’s spokesmen were offering assurances that there were no warlike implications in the Lend-Lease Act, this staff conference used the revealing phrase, “when the United States becomes involved in war with Germany.”
5. The inauguration of naval patrols, the purpose of which was to report the presence of German submarines to British warships, in the Atlantic in April, 1941.
   1. Later formalized as American 10th fleet activated in 1943
   2. Ladislaw Farrago – Fleet historian
6. The dispatch of American laborers to Northern Ireland to build a naval base, obviously with the needs of an American expeditionary force in mind.
7. The occupation of Iceland by American troops in July, 1941. This was going rather far afield for a government which professed as its main concern the keeping of the United States out of foreign wars.
8. August 9-12, 1941 –The Atlantic Conference of Roosevelt (United States of America)  and Churchill (United Kingdom,) .
   1. Besides committing America as a partner in a virtual declaration of war aims, this conference considered the presentation of an ultimatum to Japan and the occupation of the Cape Verde Islands, a Portuguese possession, by United States troops.
9. September 11, 1941 – The formal orders to American warships to shoot on sight at German submarines.
   1. The beginning of actual hostilities may be dated from this time rather than from the German Declaration of War, which followed Pearl Harbor.
10. September 29 – October 1,  1941- First Moscow Conference – Discussion of Allied Aid to the Soviet Union.
11. The authorization for the arming of merchant ships and the sending of these ships into war zones in November, 1941.

Japanese Theater of War

1. The freezing of Japanese assets in the United States on July 25, 1941.
   1. This step, which was followed by similar action on the part of Great Britain and the Netherlands East Indies, amounted to a commercial blockade of Japan. The war-making potentialities of this decision had been recognized by Roosevelt himself shortly before it was taken. Addressing a delegation and explaining why oil exports to Japan had not been stopped previously, he said:
   2. It was very essential, from our own selfish point of view of defense, to prevent a war from starting in the South Pacific. So our foreign policy was trying to stop a war from breaking out down there…. Now, if we cut the oil off, they [the Japanese] probably would have gone down to the Netherland’s East Indies a year ago, and we would have had war.
2. When the Japanese Prime Minister, Prince Fumimaro Konoye, appealed for a personal meeting with Roosevelt to discuss an amicable settlement in the Pacific, this appeal was rejected, despite the strong favorable recommendations of the American ambassador to Japan, Joseph C. Grew.
   1. Final step on the road to war in the Pacific was Secretary of State Hull’s note to the Japanese government of November 26. Before sending this communication Hull had considered proposing a compromise formula which would have relaxed the blockade of Japan in return for Japanese withdrawal from southern Indochina and a limitation of Japanese forces in northern Indochina.
   2. However, Hull dropped this idea under pressure from British and Chinese sources. He dispatched a veritable ultimatum on November 26, which demanded unconditional Japanese withdrawal from China and from Indochina and insisted that there should be “no support of any government in China other than the National government [Chiang Kai-shek].” Hull admitted that this note took Japanese-American relations out of the realm of diplomacy and placed them in the hands of the military authorities.
   3. The negative Japanese reply to this note was delivered almost simultaneously with the attack on Pearl Harbor. There was a strange and as yet unexplained failure to prepare for this attack by giving General Short and Admiral Kimmel, commanders on the spot, a clear picture of the imminent danger. As Secretary of War Stimson explained the American policy, it was to maneuver the Japanese into firing the first shot, and it may have been feared that openly precautionary and defensive moves on the part of Kimmel and Short would scare off the impending attack by the Japanese task force which was known to be on its way to some American outpost.
3. December 7,1941- Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor
4. December 8, 1941, President Roosevelt’s speech “The Day of Infamy,” in which America declares war on Japan.
5. January 1-2, 1942 Declaration of the United Nations, In a culmination of the allied agreements, this declaration brings all the prior work together and, In effect, helps lead the ENTIRE world into War.
   1. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Declaration_by_United_Nations

“Declare:

(1) Each Government pledges itself to employ its full resources, military or economic, against those members of the Tripartite Pact and its adherents with which such government is at war.

(2) Each Government pledges itself to cooperate with the Governments signatory hereto and not to make a separate armistice or peace with the enemies.

The foregoing declaration may be adhered to by other nations which are, or which may be, rendering material assistance and contributions in the struggle for victory over Hitlerism.[15]

~Declaration of the United Nations

The effects of this Declaration are still in force today and the makeup of the UN such as the Security Council are a direct reflection of the WW2 alliances.

The Scope of WWII:

World War II (WWII or WW2), also known as the Second World War, was a global war that was underway by 1939 and ended in 1945. It involved the vast majority of the world’s nations—including all of the great powers—eventually forming two opposing military alliances: the Allies and the Axis. It was the most widespread war in history, with more than 100 million people serving in military units. In a state of “total war“, the major participants placed their entire economic, industrial, and scientific capabilities at the service of the war effort, erasing the distinction between civilian and military resources. Marked by mass deaths of civilians, including the Holocaust and the only use of nuclear weapons in warfare, it resulted in 50 million to over 75 million fatalities. These deaths make World War II by far the deadliest conflict in human history.[1] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_War_II

Military Historian  Major-General JFC Fuller http://www.ihr.org/news/weber_ww2_may08.html

In the view of British historian J.F.C. Fuller, President Roosevelt “left no stone unturned to provoke Hitler to declare war on the very people to whom FDR so ardently promised peace. He provided Great Britain with American destroyers, he landed American troops in Iceland, and he set out to patrol the Atlantic seaways in order to safeguard British convoys; all of which were acts of war … In spite of his manifold enunciations to keep the United States out of the war, he was bent on provoking some incident which would bring them into it.” / 26

Admiral Harold R. Stark: http://www.ihr.org/news/weber_ww2_may08.html

So belligerent and unlawful were the Roosevelt administration’s policies that Admiral Harold R. Stark, chief of US naval operations, acknowledged in a confidential September 1941 memorandum for the President: “He [Hitler] has every excuse in the world to declare war on us now, if he were of a mind to.” / 27

The Prophecy:

It was 1960 and President Kennedy was elected.  Bro. Branham was looking back at some visions the Lord had given him long ago.

1. 1932: (Listen to this.) As I was on my way… Or as I was getting ready to go on my way to church this morning, it came to pass that I fell into a vision. Our services is being held on Meigs Avenue at the old orphans’ home, where Charlie Kern lives in part of the building.” (He lives just across the street now, you know.) And it came to pass that while I was in this vision I seen some dreadful things take place. I speak this in the Name of the Lord.

The president which now is, President Franklin D. Roosevelt… (Now remember, this is twenty-eight years ago.) will cause the whole world to go to war; and the new dictator of Italy, Mussolini, shall make his first invasion towards Ethiopia, and he will take Ethiopia; but that’ll be his last. He shall come to his end.

(…)Now, look what happened now. In… President Franklin D. Roosevelt took America to England’s tea party. That’s right. Germany never picked on us; we picked on them, throwed the whole world into a war, to cause a world war.~Condemnation By Representation, 1960

*England was attempting to free up the western European states to allow Europe to withstand the Russian advances. At the Locarno treaty.

2. “ (…) At that time I was just a boy: 1933, on June. (…) Said, “We now have a president (Dwi… Mr. Roosevelt), and this Mr. Roosevelt will cause the world to go into a world war through his–in his time of his administration, his–his–as president,”” ~Conference 1960

I said, “The President that now is (I copied this off of the old Scripture–old thing yesterday)–that the President that we now have, which was (how many remembers whose it was?) Franklin D. Roosevelt…” I said, “The President we have in now will run even in the fourth term (He’s on his first then.)–will run into the fourth term, and we will be taken to a second world  war.” ~The Seventieth Week of Daniel 1961

*Roosevelt is the only president in American History to date elected to four terms.

“How many remembers that vision, here in the church? Sure. Said that, how that even Kennedy would be elected in this last election. How that women would be permitted to vote. How that Roosevelt would take the world to war.” ~Ephesian Church Age

Now, she’s gone. Write it in your Bible; see if it’s right. 1933, one morning going to the Baptist tabernacle, I went into a trance, saw a vision. I saw President Roosevelt was going to help lead the world to a world war, told it that morning. They was going to lock me up for it. And I said, “They’ll go to war with Germany.” Eleven years before the Maginot Line was built, I said, “There…” in that same vision I saw Germany fortified in concrete. And America took a terrible beating there, and many of you boys know what happened, was there.  ~Jehovah Jireh 1961

3. I seen it, thirty–1931. Seven things happened. I got it right on paper here with me, wrote it in 1931. How that I said, “This President, Franklin D. Roosevelt, he will cause all the world, help do it, send the world to war.” Hadn’t come to war yet, during times of depression. I said, “Another thing…” And my mother, a square-back Democrat, if she didn’t look at me hard when I said that. I said, “I don’t care if there’s a Republican or if he was a Socialist or whatever he is, this is THUS SAITH THE LORD.” ~Jezebel Religion 61-0319

*Many people today still refuse to believe Roosevelt led the world into war. The day I was writing this article (after much research over a period of weeks,) a lady got very perturbed that some of these articles were saying such things about President Roosevelt.~BJW

Conclusions:

History records exactly what God’s Prophet William Marrion Branham saw as vision.

The Vision is fulfilled: In well-known treaties and alliances, Military provocations, and most tellingly the formation of the United Nations – the body that brings together the Nations of the World.
