2008-04-10: Frogs end, Plague: Gnats

This is the modern prophetic replay of the end of the plague of frogs and the replay of the Plague of Gnats on Egypt. The associated Bible Text and key times are given at the bottom of this page.

There are 3 aspects to the the plague that land on this date.

1. End of Frogs Which so far has been a generally financial system plague, especially Federal Reserve related currency-impacting interest rate changes and regulatory changes.
2. Stinking Piles of dead frogs originally, but anything that stinks, or piles, would fulfill this now.
3. Plague of flees/gnats/lice but really anything at all that is small and flies in the air. This is a point-event, and does not last long.

Fulfillment

About 2 weeks ahead of this date there was a grounding of MD-80s for emergency inspections. This grounding involved issues of wiring bundles in the wheel wells of commercial passenger carrying MD-80 aircraft.

Various airlines fly this model, but American Airlines has by far the most, over 300, and so was the airline most impacted.

Beginning on Tuesday, April 8, 2008, American had to again ground MD-80s because the FAA felt that some of the wiring harnesses had not been secured with string wrappers that were close enough together. The FAA wanted this work redone. On that day over 460 domestic flights were grounded, causing a pile of planes, passengers, and luggage.

The next day, April 9, 2008, over 1100 domestic flights were grounded with the bulk of them (1094) were again American Airlines flights, though some Delta and Alaska flights were also grounded.

On Thursday, April 10, 2008, another 933 flights were grounded. Though the media reports from the previous 2 days was expected to minimize the surprise nature of the flight cancellations on passengers.

On Friday, April 11, 2008, 595 additional American Airlines flights where canceled.

Over 250,000 passengers spread across most major US airports were impacted by this sudden cancellation of flights.

The Key Issue in the grounding of the MD-80s was the US FAA’s utter disregard for the traveling public. The air-worthiness directive had been issued in September of 2006, 18 months before the grounding.

If there was really a safety problem, the wiring harness problem should have been addressed long before April of 2008. If there was NOT a safety problem, then the traveling public should not have been subjected to over 3000 canceled flights. Either way, the FAA was not paying attention to details, and did not care about the average traveler. To the FAA administration, the public was simply a gnat that could be ignored.

The prophetic story involves gnats, small things that fly, and frogs, small things that hop. These aspects of this plague were seen in the fulfillment headlines with the airplanes (gnats) and the piles of people that were left on the ground.

There had been similarly sized weather related airline groundings, and there had been a total stop of airline flights at 911, but there has never been a regulation related grounding of airline flights of this magnitude before. In this case over 3100 flights were canceled.

Other Possible Fulfillment Headlines

There were minor headlines out of Israel, and a very edgy Israeli public, because of high-alert military status across the Israel-Syria border. 2 specific headlines are worth noting here which may been seen as more significant to this date in the future.

• Gas Masks Reissued in Israel This plague deals with the stink of dead frogs. Gas masks are used to protect the wearer against strong stinks too, and Israel had decided to reissue these masks to the general population, for fear of a non-conventional attack across the Syria border.
• Military Exercise in Israel ending on April 10, with a siren test on April 8, because of tensions on the Syria and Lebanon borders.
