Iran War started. Pray for Peace. And for Victory.

Today, March 18, 2026, Our Lady appeared to Mirjana at her home in Medjugorje. Our Lady appeared at 1:22 PM and the apparition lasted 4 minutes. Following is Our Lady’s March 18, 2026, message:



“Dear children, never forget how great is the love of God. Through that love I am with you. Do not forget how great is His mercy. Through that mercy I am showing you the way to true happiness and perfect peace. That is the way to my Son. Therefore, my children, with complete trust, abandon yourselves to my Son and do not be afraid. Do not be afraid of the future because it belongs entirely to the will of my Son. Therefore, my children, renounce everything that distances you from my Son: false happiness, false hope, false splendor. Trust my Son. Tell Him about your pains, sufferings, desires and hopes. You will feel His love and His blessing. Thank you!”

Individual clerics are probably compromised but I think that many are afraid of being called a Nazi. The zionist strategy is to denounce as a Nazi anyone who doesn't support the Greater Israel project and Israel's crimes against humanity. I still strongly suspect that Israel is a proxy.

The Americans inherited Israel from the British. Wealthy Jews convinced the prevailing powers, first in Britain and then in the US, that Israel would be their loyal servant in the oil rich region. Zionism was anathema to faithful Jews but over time many were brainwashed using the usual method of fear, especially after the holocaust.. Jews must have realised by now that the more they threaten their neighbours and the more they support barbarism, the more the rest of the world will be suspicious of them. They are being used. The real question to be answered is who is using them.

The Lobby is also very influential in Britain. I watched an interview with Andrew Neil. During the interview, he spoke about a survey in Britain showing that a majority of University students would prefer not to have a Jewish room mate. Neil was shocked and blamed the universities. (If he was shocked at his own country's participation in the Gaza genocide, he didn't mention it in the part of the interview I watched.) Why would anyone be surprised that young people would be afraid to share accommodation with someone from a protected group if a member of that group only has to shout "anti-semite" if they have a disagreement and the room mate's future prospects will be destroyed? Those Jewish supremacists must be aware of the dangerous situation they are creating for all young Jews. Andrew Neil is not a Jew but he must know how young people will respond to having beliefs forced on them, yet he goes with the flow of the elitists. It's weird and it's very unfair to young Jews, especially those who don't support Israel's wars.

 

If you look at the theological and philosophical level of what is happening, I would say that these are the greatest events in history, perhaps since the time of Jesus. It’s as if everything is culminating, a convergence and clash of the entire history of monotheistic religions (Islam, Christianity, Judaism), as well as conflicts among various Christian denominations (Catholics, Protestants, Orthodox) and the ideologies that have emerged from them.

If you look at the 20th century, it was a time of conflict between national-economic ideologies, primarily capitalism and communism, which were often infused with strong national tensions. What we are seeing now goes beyond that human, ethnic, or tribal dimension, something supernatural that separates good from evil on a spiritual level, and it feels as though something ominous is approaching, causing such division.

I’ll go briefly in order. Among Muslims, the name Fatima is commonly given to women. For us Catholics, that name carries a completely different connotation, which we often forget, but Fatima is a Muslim name, and it was the name of the daughter of the Prophet Muhammad.

Portugal was under Moorish (North African Muslim) rule for centuries, and that is how the place got its name. There is also a legend that a Portuguese knight kidnapped a Muslim princess named Fatima in 12 century, who fell in love with him, converted to Christianity, and changed her name, though people remembered her by her Arabic name.

In any case, the apparition of the Virgin Mary, and without hesitation the most important apparition in the history of the Catholic Church, did not occur by chance in a place named after a Muslim woman and the daughter of the Prophet Muhammad. Bishop Sheen spoke about this back in the 1950s and 1960s, when it was not at all clear to most people. Fatima is the holiest woman after Mary in Islam, and she is the one who will lead Muslims toward Christianity.

And not only that, but what I didn’t know is that the 1917 apparition was not the first, Our Lady appeared in Fatima several centuries earlier to a deaf-mute girl. As we know, four other key aspects of the Fatima apparitions that unfold in parallel are Russia and its major role. As we all know, there has been a long-standing war, not only involving Ukraine, but the entire West and Russia, which is primarily an Orthodox country, and this reflects the unresolved conflict stemming from the schism between Catholicism and Orthodoxy in 1054.

There is also the prophecy about communism, which today has mutated and seems stronger than ever through cultural Marxism. Finally, there is the battle for the family, which is more pronounced than ever in gender ideology, the LGBT movement, divorce, radical feminism, the collapse in birth rates to historically low fertility levels, a childless society, hedonism, and so on.

In the end, there remains the message concerning the Vatican and why the Third Secret had to be revealed no later than 1960, and everything happening with the great apostasy in the Church.

When you look at the apparitions in Fatima, do you see how much they actually testify to, and how everything is currently relevant and interconnected( Russia, communism, islam, Vatican II, family battle?

Since it’s half past one at night here, I’ll write the continuation tomorrow

 

Trump stated this week that it would be an honor to carry out the takeover of Cuba in order to “do whatever he wants.” In light of this, I assume that, if the war turns into a quagmire for his country—similar to Russia’s special operation in Ukraine—the “honorable exit” will be to shift the focus of the intervention, declaring that its objectives have been achieved: weakening the terrorist regime and eliminating its nuclear capabilities.

Even if this means the perpetuation of the Khamenei dynasty, which has historically viewed conversions to Christianity and its proselytizing activities as threats to national security, punishable by imprisonment.

A regime change will likely not occur; in fact, what will change is the very geopolitics of the West, due to a possible split within NATO. Trump will likely act as someone free from the constraints and obligations toward Europe. He may even accept Putin’s generous proposal, made last year, for the joint exploitation of Ukraine’s mineral resources, leading to a “tripolar” world in which Europe oscillates between internal fragmentation and full unity, including the formation of a single army.

 

My thoughts today were: The Catechism says in the End Times, the Church will follow her Savior in His Passion and Resurrection. Jesus was put to death by secular powers at the demand of the Jews. It makes a lot of sense that once again the Jews seem to be calling the shots and the secular powers are carrying them out. The stage seems to be set.

But in the end, whatever persecution of the Church they achieve, the martyrs' blood will purchase the Jews' conversion. What a glorious time that will be!

 

Blessed Alexandrina da Costa, who I first read about over 40 years ago, has been on my mind recently. She is sometimes referred to as the Fourth Seer of Fatima and known to have lived on the Eucharist alone for thirteen years.
Perhaps she is to become more well known in the near future as a 'living miracle' and testimony to the truth of the Catholic understanding of the Eucharist as the Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity of Our Lord and not just a symbol of Him, as many fear is part of the agenda of the emerging counterfeit church.

"After 10 long years of paralysis which she had offered as Eucharistic reparation for the conversion of sinners, on July 30, 1935, Jesus appeared to her saying:
“I have put you in the world so that you may draw life only from Me, to bear witness to the world how precious the Eucharist is. [...]"

(Earlier this evening I posted a link to the full article containing the quote above on the thread Alexandrina Maria da Costa)

Blessed Alexandrina, pray for us.

 

What a beautiful and very apt message from Our Blessed Mother this is! Mary when she speaks comes to us from a place of perfect peace and love. The more we pray the more we are in a place of perfect peace and love too.

Her call on us not to be afraid reminds me so much of Pope St John Paul.

I am very interested in her calling on us to renounce false happiness, hope and splendor. I take it from this she means all worldly things. But in the context of the message I think she is especially talking about false Patriotisms. Or at least I guess so.


'To one who loves his fatherland, for instance, our boasted indifference to the ethics of a national war is mere mysterious gibberism. It is like telling a man that a boy has committed murder, but that he need not mind because it is only his son. Here clearly the word ‘love’ is used unmeaningly. It is the essence of love to be sensitive, it is a part of its doom; and anyone who objects to the one must certainly get rid of the other. This sensitiveness, rising sometimes to an almost morbid sensitiveness, was the mark of all great lovers like Dante and all great patriots like Chatham. ‘My country, right or wrong,’ is a thing that no patriot would think of saying except in a desperate case. It is like saying, ‘My mother, drunk or sober.’ No doubt if a decent man’s mother took to drink he would share her troubles to the last; but to talk as if he would be in a state of gay indifference as to whether his mother took to drink or not is certainly not the language of men who know the great mystery.

From Orthodoxy (Chapter V. The Flag of the World): GK Chesterton'

 

Given that this is very likely to lead to a world war, given the Chinese ambitions for Taiwan, is it possible that the Apparition in Akita will become more prominent, perhaps leading to increasing conversions in the Far East? Did I read that the tears that came from the statue of Our Lady shared the same DNA as that taken from the Turin Shroud?

 

This is a spiritually anointed post. Thank you!

 

More shall be revealed

 

There are increasing reports, and hints of information, that indicate that Israel is in a desperate situation. A confirmed one is that Hezbollah have destroyed 6 Israeli tanks in a village in Lebanon. What seems most striking is that the village is only 2km from the Israeli border, after 8 days of their offensive. This indicates that progress is not what was expected. There is also a report that Egypt is massing her forces in Sinai, it being said not to attack, but to keep the Israelis from running into Egypt. There is also a report that Israel has reached out to a reporter in the Washington Post to proclaim their dire situation-readers of this newspaper might be able to clarify. It is definitely confirmed that Iran has greatly increased its rate of missile strikes since the 16th, including on Israel and with newer, more destructive missiles. Israel's defensive capacity seems to be critically weakened. While Iran has been quite open to acknowledging strikes against it, apart from the attack on its gas-field that it shares with Qatar (Israel bombed its 'ally' too), there seem to be fewer reports of other attacks upon it.

We now await Trump's marines...

 

More rosaries

 

Being St Joseph Feast Day today, it reminds me that he too was present at last apparition of Fatima on October 13th. He appeared in silence with the Child Jesus and blessed the world. I know he also was at Knock again not speaking but silently blessing. I cannot help but think on His Feast Day, He is blessing us. Protector of the Church. I believe he will play a bigger role in these coming years along with his beloved spouse. St. Joseph, pray for us!

Beautiful.

 

Thank y ou for this. Saint Joseph in his holy silence says more than all the great orators of the world.

 

Agree.

 

VERY enlightening!

 

Xavier,

It has been said that God writes with crooked lines. I both agree and disagree with your assessment. All war is hateful, a crime against God Who is Love Personified. Yet in our fallen world, it is unfortunately inevitable. Islam is both false and cruel, especially since it directly opposes the True Faith. The Israeli regime is a political reality, not a spiritual one. And unfortunately with the intense Zionist lobby in my country, America is beholden to them.

Yes, Israel will accept Jesus Christ via His Baptism and be saved one day, but though the Lord may be using President Trump in some hidden way to help bring about this eventual MIRACLE, very, very little is currently pleasing in His eyes.

May Persia once again arise, may the yoke of Islam be shattered in her midst via a Christian revival, and may our Prince of Peace soon return as He promised!

 

From Totus Tuus Fb page today:

"Cardinal Pietro Parolin, Vatican Secretary of State, made a strong and direct appeal to U.S. President Donald Trump and Israeli leaders to bring the ongoing conflict to an immediate end.

Speaking on the sidelines of a book presentation in Rome, he warned that the situation risks rapid escalation, with serious consequences for peace and stability.

He emphasized that dialogue and diplomacy are the only ways to prevent further suffering, urging leaders to prioritize human life and pursue solutions through negotiation rather than violence. Cardinal Parolin’s message is a sobering reminder of the Church’s commitment to peace and its call for responsible leadership in times of conflict."
