Israel May Be Trapped by Red
Armies When War Breaks in '52

NEW YORK, (AJP)—The sage
who foresaw the re-creation of
Israel as early as 400 years ago
warned the Jewish State against
overconfidence in 1952 and cau-
tioned that she might find her-
self trapped in a net of circum-
stances soon after Russian troops
march through Iran and Turkey
toward the Mediterranean late
in the new year.
Too, warned the French schol-
ar and prophesizer Nostradamus,
Palestine in 1952 will again
be the scene of intense conflict.
Israel, he warned, may be dan-
gerously threatened.
Nostradamus' modern inter-
preter, Jewish book expert Henry
C. Rogers, made available the
somewhat gloomy prophecy to
the American Jewish Press.
Rogers, who said that Nostrada-
mus was of Jewish origin, con-
tended the Frenchman of the
1500S had foretold the coming
of World War II, the Allied vic-
tory and other highpoints in
history.

On a larger scope, Nostrada-
mus' predictions for '52 include
the dismal prospect of Russian
attack in the Middle East.
In case you're interested, Nos-
tradamus predicts that long-
awaited day of final peace on
earth—no more wars—will come
in 1999.
