"The oil ministers of Iraq, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Qatar and the UAE met in the Saudi city of Jeddah on July 10–11 1990 and an agreement was reached on curbing over-production. Kuwait and the UAE agreed to reduce their output to 1,500,000 bpd each until the reference price was restored. This represented a cut in actual output for Kuwait of some 300,000 bpd and for the UAE of 400,000 bpd.
"Less than a week after the Jeddah agreement on over-production had been reached, Iraq launched a concerted, public attack on the policies of Kuwait and the UAE. The offensive was begun on July 17 by Saddam Hussein during a speech to mark the 22nd anniversary of the "July 17–30 Revolution". Saddam threatened that "if words fail to protect Iraqis, something effective must be done to return things to their natural course and return usurped rights to their owners". He accused some (unnamed) Arab states of undermining Arab interests and security on behalf of the USA and warned that Iraq "will not forget the saying that cutting necks is better than cutting the means of living".

The next day, after Saddam Hussein's speech threatening war, the Dow closed neither up nor down, remaining at 2999.75 and thereafter declining, it didn't close above 3000 until April 1991.

Thursday night October 11, 2018, China surreptitiously "announced" it has the means to fly nuclear bombers into the United States at the speed of 7,000 miles an hour and precision-strike whatever target it pleases:

The test of the hypersonic bomber took place at around 5:45 a.m. CDT October 11 which was eighty times 260 days after Russia detonated the most powerful nuclear explosion ever, at 3:32 a.m. CDT Monday October 30, 1961.

On Friday afternoon October 12, 2018 the Dow closed up 287.16 points to 25339.99 points, there's that 999 again, it evidently indicates an end an end an end has come upon a status quo.

An end has come upon the way most of the Western world regards Saudi Arabia, no longer will the West turn a blind eye as Saudi leaders imprison or behead rights activists:

Also prominently displayed in Wall Street's closing numbers is the sequence "7.16" an anagram for "6.71" and the date in the ancient Lunar Calendar of the Fall of Babylon to surprise attack by the Persians and Medes on the 16th day of Tishri the 7th month, corresponding to Friday September 25, 538 B.C. in the Gregorian Calendar and corresponding to Friday October 1, 538 B.C. in the Julian Calendar.

Sunday October 14, 2018 is Sunday October 1, 2018 in the Julian Calendar, it is 2555 years (7 times 365 years of 365.25 days each) since the Fall of Babylon on October 1, 538 B.C. (Julian).

39 times 260 days before October 14, 2018 is Wednesday January 9, 1991 and on that morning I had a dream in which I told a relative that Russia and China would eventually be at war with the United States...and in the dream a rainbow hovered over the street outside the window.

Bizarrely, about five hours after I had the dream, in real life a rainbow appeared in the sky outside my window, not a big rainbow, just a multicolored swatch of mist hovering over the Midwestern city I lived in at the time...I had never seen a rainbow in the cold of January and stared at it with some awe.

The rainbow is said in the Bible to be a sign of God's covenant with Noah to never again destroy mankind with a global flood of water, and also that the New Jerusalem would eventually be established (in the New World).

Twice seven times 360 days ago tonight, a cataclysmic earthquake and tsunami occurred, the earthquake off Northern Sumatra at 7:59 p.m. CDT Saturday night December 25-26, 2004, that Sunday December 26 was the 111th birthday of Mao Zedong, founder of Communist China.

On the afternoon of Monday October 14, 1996 I had a dream that the sky to the West was reddish and there were strange-shaped aircraft on the horizon, like UFOs. Then it was announced over a radio broadcast that Saddam Hussein had filed a "Thod" which in the dream meant a sort of lawsuit in international court. Then it became clear that the U.S. was about to be missile-attacked, and I began running through a town's street,
hollering at the top of my lungs an ancient war-cry in the Hebrew or Aramaic language. I saw a Native American boy asleep with his head in the sand like an ostrich, I smacked him to wake him up. Then I saw huge steel structures "unfurl" from government buildings, they were secret missile defense devices, the dream said. Then I awakened, and it was 3:30 p.m. CDT.

I called it the "Thod Dream" and about 10 days later I learned about THAAD for the first time:

I believe the Cuban Missile Crisis began on October 14, 1962, I will check...Yes:
"The US first obtained U-2 photographic evidence of the missiles on October 14, when a U-2 flight piloted by Major Richard Heyser took 928 pictures on a path selected by DIA analysts, capturing images of what turned out to be an SS-4 construction site at San Cristóbal, Pinar del Río Province (now in Artemisa Province), in western Cuba."

Sunday October 14, 2018 at 9:40 p.m. CDT is 169.5 times 260 days since the USS Maine exploded in Havana Harbor Tuesday February 15, 1898, prompting U.S entry into the Spanish-American war. The Madrid Spain Train bombings of circa 12:40 a.m. CDT March 11, 2004 were 20.5 times 260 days ago....in other words March 11, 2004 and February 15, 1898 are the same 149th day of the 260-day count, and are 149 times 260 days apart.

Today Sunday October 14, 2018 is the 19th day of the 260-day count, "Two Storm".

Sunday night November 3, 2002 was 1995 times 364 days after Caesar Augustus died Sunday August 17, 14 A.D. (Gregorian Calendar)....So, tonight is 2011 times 364 days since the death of Augustus. I have pointed out elsewhere that major global developments take place on cycles relating to the birth and death dates of Caesar Augustus.

Have A Great Day!
