The Petrodollar is Officially Collapsing as the Strait of Hormuz Remains Closed to U.S. and Israel in Spite of Alleged “Ceasefire”

The U.S. corporate news headlines for the past 24 hours has stated that there is a 2-week ceasefire agreement in place between Iran and the U.S. But as of the time of my writing this as the U.S. Stock Market closes on Wednesday, April 8th, the only ones who appear to be benefiting from this alleged "ceasefire" appear to be investors on Wall Street, as this "news" triggered a huge rally on Wall Street today. Prior to this, BOTH Iran and the U.S. were claiming to have "won" the war by gaining concessions for the "ceasefire." But this "news" quickly changed as things unfolded today, as Israel reportedly carried out their largest attacks on Hezbollah in Lebanon since the Iran War started, which Iran claims violated the ceasefire agreement, while the Trump administration claimed that Lebanon was not part of the agreement. And while there was reportedly some kind of agreement in place to keep the Strait of Hormuz open, at the time of this writing, it is officially closed by Iran due to reporting by many sources, some of which track ships passing through the strait. However, in what may be in my opinion the most significant piece of news to be published in the past 24 hours, the U.S. corporate news is reporting, for the first time, that Saudi Arabia did, indeed, cancel the U.S. petrodollar agreement 2 years ago, as we published here on Health Impact News at the time, as well as a few other sources in the alternative media. I knew this was very significant back then, because several "trolls" tried to comment on that article to debunk it, and some tried to contact me directly, stating that this was "false news", as all the "fact-checking" sites also tried to debunk it. Fast forward to today, as we are over 1 month now into the Iran War and the Strait of Hormuz remains closed, and now all of a sudden permission has apparently been granted to the corporate media to cover this event from 2024. An article that Fortune published last night had this headline: "2 years ago, Saudi Arabia quietly canceled the ‘petrodollar’ deal with America that wired the world economy for 50 years. Then war broke out in Iran." This admission by the corporate media in the U.S. that the petrodollar is collapsing in favor of the petroyuan, speaks volumes about what the billionaires who run this country now believe in regards to the collapse of the dollar, far more than the political rhetoric about the Iran War. They seem to be admitting defeat, and that the U.S. can no longer control the flow of the world's oil.

Trials and Persecution of Believers: “We were Destined for Them”

In Acts chapter 17 in the New Testament portion of the Bible, we have the story of Paul and Silas's visit to the Greek city of Thessalonica, where they preached the Gospel of Jesus Christ. These people in Thessalonica paid a high price for believing that Jesus was the prophesied Jewish Messiah. Some of them were arrested. It was a mixed congregation of both believing Jews, and Gentile believers. They were attacked by the Satanic Jews who rejected Jesus, the equivalent of the "Zionists" in today's culture. As in many of Paul's journeys recorded in the book of Acts, the Satanic Jews probably tried to kill him, which forced the believers to quickly get him out of Thessalonica. Being cut off from these new believers, Paul grew concerned about them, especially because they were being persecuted by the Satanic Jews. So he wrote a letter to them, and this is recorded in the New Testament, in 1 Thessalonians. He reminded them that all believers are "destined" for these kinds of trials and persecutions.

How Christians Celebrate a Fertility Demon Called “Easter” Instead of Obeying the Teachings of Jesus Christ

The Council of Nicaea in 325 AD under the Roman emperor Constantine approved the official "doctrine" of Christianity as a State religion. One of the things Constantine did at the Council of Nicaea, was to separate the Jewish "Passover" holiday from the pagan spring festival of "Easter", which is based on a female fertility goddess. To separate the "Jews" from the "Christians", "Easter" was declared to be a "Christian" holiday centered around the resurrection of Jesus Christ, because it occurred about the same time as the Jewish Passover. The Roman emperor Constantine (who would be labeled "antisemitic" by the Zionists today) reportedly declared: “Let us then have nothing in common with the detestable Jewish crowd; for we have received from our Saviour a different way.” (Eusebius’ Life of Constantine, Book III chapter 18) A female goddess of Spring who represents "fertility" is common in many ancient cultures, with the female rabbit and her eggs being a symbol of fertility. The goddess of Spring that Easter was based on is commonly believed to be Eostre, part of the Anglo Saxon traditions handed down through the Germanic people. Jesus Christ, who was a Jew, not a Christian, celebrated the Passover. In fact, it was one of the last things he did just before he was executed. So what did Jesus teach when he celebrated his last Passover? Did he change its name to something else like "Easter"?

The State of American Christianity in 2026: Protect their Pedophile Leaders in Churches and Rejoice in the Massacre of Iranian Women and Children

Robert Preston Morris, the disgraced founder and former pastor of Texas megachurch Gateway Church, was just released from prison yesterday (March 31, 2026) after only serving 6 months of a 10-year prison term after he pleaded guilty to five counts of lewd or indecent acts with a child for a four-year pattern of abusing a 12-year-old child in his congregation. Morris formerly served on President Trump’s evangelical advisory board. I am happy to hear that Cindy Clemishire, the victim in this case, is not stopping now, but is pursuing other members of the churches and Christian organizations that protected this pedophile, because seldom does a pastor, priest, or other Christian leader commit these horrible crimes alone, without the collusion of others to cover up their sex abuses. When Pastors or Priests or other Christian leaders are caught, they are usually just transferred to another church somewhere, as we have been documenting for over a decade now here at Health Impact News. This is the sad state of Christianity in America today, where American Christians will hide and protect their pedophile leaders, while cheering the mass killing of women and children in Iran, and even praying for their destruction in their churches. As I have reported for so many years now, these pedophiles in Christian churches are so common now, that any American Christian church that does NOT have pedophiles in their ranks, would be extremely rare. I just did an Internet search on "pastor arrest sex abuse", and limited the search to just the past month, and there were more results than I could possibly reference to in this article, as it would take me many hours. Here are a few of them from the past few weeks, as you can see, they cover all varieties of American Christians, from Evangelicals to Catholics to home-school-home-churches (including a famous homeschool family with their own TV show) to Amish and Mennonites.

Defying Death Threats, Permanent Representative of UN Quits to Leak Information about Plans to Bomb Iran with Nukes

The strongest evidence yet that the Iran war may be ended by launching nuclear weapons into the country by Israel and the United States was produced by a permanent member of the UN and Executive Director of the Patriotic Vision Organization for the past 12 years, Mohamad Safa, who resigned from his position on Friday, so that he could leak information about an alleged UN plan to launch nuclear weapons into Iran. Mohamad is continuing to speak out on social media, and has stated that he and his family have received death threats, and that he gave up his career to leak this information.

Update on Attacks Against Brian Shilhavy: Judge Issues Hearing for Protective Orders Against Former Business Colleagues

I want to thank everyone who has been praying for me and all the kind words of encouragement sent my way. I apologize for not being able to respond back to everyone during these very traumatic times for me. I am still alive, still in my home, still publishing articles on the Health Impact News network, and still at the helm running Healthy Traditions. Here is an update written by Neal Sutz, and published on Elder Abuse Media: "Elder Abuse Case in Springville, CA, Involving Threats of Eviction, Financial Exploitation, Grand Theft and Intimidation, Becomes A More Complex, In-Depth Story, With A Forthcoming Court Hearing"

“Most Powerful Energy Crisis in Human History is Looming” – Russian Oil Exports Halting After Ukraine Attacks

Iran has halted passage to all ships trying to pass through the Strait of Hormuz as they prepare for a possible ground assault from U.S. troops that have been deployed to the region this week. In this interview with independent journalist Pepe Escobar, he reveals how Iran's Parliament is now passing laws requiring any ships who pass through the Strait of Hormuz to now pay a toll of up to $2 million, but payable in Chinese Yuan. President Trump has allegedly delayed any attacks on Iran's energy and infrastructure, but Israel has reportedly just bombed an Iranian steel manufacturer, and as a result, Iran has issued urgent evacuation warnings for major steel facilities across the region, declaring them imminent military targets. Iran has also promised to target energy producing facilities in the UAE if they join the war. Meanwhile, Ukraine has bombed key Russian ports and refineries in the Baltic Sea, taking out nearly 40% of Russia's oil export capacity, as Russia is now halting all oil exports until they can be brought back online. This has led Kremlin envoy Kirill Dmitriev to state that "the most powerful energy crisis in human history is looming". Some Wall Street investors appear to be finally starting to wake up and realize Trump has been lying to them, as one analyst contradicted Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent's statements that fuel shortages were not coming to the U.S.

The Worldwide Energy Crisis Expands as The Philippines Declares a State of Emergency

As the war in Iran rages on with no signs of stopping anytime soon, the worldwide energy crisis is expanding. The Philippines appears to be the first country to declare a State of Emergency, as their fuel supplies have dwindled to only 45 days' worth. The International Energy Agency (IEA) is warning that the ongoing US-Israel-Iran conflict has already removed around 11 million barrels per day from global oil supply, an impact larger than past oil crises combined. IEA Executive Director Fatih Birol told the National Press Club in Canberra, Australia, on Monday that the current disruption exceeds the combined supply losses of the 1973 and 1979 energy shocks. This is leading to supply chain disruptions, and also consumer panic in stores in some countries. Remember how toilet paper was the first thing to run out in American grocery stores in 2020 when COVID began? It's starting again, in Japan.

The Gospel of Jesus Christ Condemns American Christians

As the Iran War with the U.S. and Israel is now entering it's 4th week, the reasons why the U.S. and Israel started this war, and what the goals are with this war, are topics still fiercely debated among politicians. However, as I have previously reported, we know now why this war was started, as revealed by the actual people being forced to fight this war, the U.S. Military Officers. These officers have come forward to report that they were directed to tell their troops that Trump was “anointed by Jesus” and that war with Iran was “all part of God’s divine plan” to bring about Armageddon. U.S. Christians, mainly Evangelical Zionist Christians, have started this war, as almost every single member of Trump's Administration is a Christian Zionist. This is their war. They wanted it, Trump promised it to them in his campaign to become President, and now he is fulfilling his promises to them. These Christians are part of the Church of Satan, and are denying the Gospel of Jesus Christ. They will reap what they have sown, and the rest of us will all suffer as well. One of the clearest explanations that describes what the Gospel of Jesus Christ is, and who the "chosen people" are, is contained in Paul's letter to the believers in the city of Colosse, in the New Testament portion of the Bible.

It’s Officially an “Energy Crisis” – Food Rationing, Panic-buying, Planes Grounded, Stay-at-home Orders and Other COVID-like Restrictions Just Ahead?

The world is now officially in the midst of an "energy crisis" due to the Iran war and the inability of the U.S. to open back up the Strait of Hormuz, as governments in many nations in Europe and Asia are now are calling for "COVID-like" measures to be put in place to keep people at home like they did during the COVID Scamdemic. This urgency and fear has not reached most in the U.S. yet, however, as most Americans go about their daily business not fully realizing what is happening in the outside world due to the coordinated work of the U.S. media to attempt to shield this, so far. The International Energy Agency (IEA) is calling for people to cut oil demand by working from home more, flying less and driving slower. The IEA’s members include the US, UK and Japan. So this is officially an "energy crisis" now, and the last time this happened in the U.S. was in the 1970s under President Jimmy Carter. Most Americans alive today did not experience that, it was so long ago.
