A longtime prophecy writer dubbed “America’s Nostradamus” is forecasting nuclear attacks, a U.S. economic collapse, and a 27-year global war that could take shape by 2028, warnings he calls a wake-up call for peace.
John Hogue shared his latest forecast exclusively with The Sun, laying out a grim timeline built from his reading of Nostradamus and modern flashpoints from Iran to Europe.
Hogue, an American mystic who has spent four decades studying ancient predictions, argues the danger is drawing closer each year. He ties the risk to exhausted conventional arsenals, Middle East tensions, and a figure he links to the old “Mabus” riddle.
None of it is presented as completed history. It is a string of forward-looking claims. Still, the specifics he offers are concrete enough to grab attention.
Hogue’s sharpest near-term claim lands on Iran’s underground nuclear sites, including a location he calls Mount Pickaxe. He says earth-penetrating warheads could enter the picture if the standoff hardens.
He put the odds in blunt terms.
"[Trump] is 50-50 about going ahead with a nuclear strike on [Iran]."
That line is Hogue’s assessment alone. The Sun piece offers no White House statement and no military order to match it. It is the seer’s read of the moment, not a confirmed plan.
He frames the larger pattern as one he has tracked for years.
"It is a new pattern of danger I’ve been warning about for a long time now."
His mechanism is straightforward, if bleak. Once Western, and especially American, conventional stockpiles run dry, he argues, only tactical and then strategic nuclear weapons remain on the shelf.
"When all stockpiles of Western, and particularly [American], conventional weapons, are exhausted, that will leave only bountiful tactical and then strategic intercontinental nuclear weapon stocks left to fight wars with."
Hogue also sketches strikes on American naval forces in the Arabian Sea. In his telling, Iranian missiles and North Korean attack drones could hit carriers hard enough to put thousands of sailors and Marines at risk.
In Europe, he warns that deeper NATO involvement around Ukraine could invite Russian hypersonic hits on weapons factories. He packages the whole stretch of risk as a “Sword of Nuclear Damocles” hanging over the late 2020s.
The calendar he favors runs through a 24-month stretch he calls the “Shofar Silence,” from September 2026 to September 2028. Inside that window, he says, the United States could face a decisive collapse of superpower standing, with September 11, 2028, marked as the symbolic end date for “imperial America.”
He even folds in a half-millennium claim: the start of the downfall of a 500-year era of Western dominance led by the American empire. Again, that is prophecy language, not an economic report.
The long war in Hogue’s account turns on a single death. He decodes Nostradamus’s “Mabus”, the Third Antichrist in that tradition, as an anagram for MBS, Saudi Crown Prince Muhammad bin Salman.
Hogue predicts Mabus will “very soon” die by assassination, palace coup, or an explosive jet crash. After that, he says, a 27-year conflict follows, wrecking oil, helium, and natural gas networks across the Middle East and Western Asia and spreading famine, thirst, and disorder.
He leans on a translated Nostradamus passage to lock the duration in place:
"The Third Antichrist will very soon be annihilated, twenty-seven years of blood his war will last. The heretics dead, captives, exiled."
Another line he cites runs: "Blood[-soaked] human bodies, water reddened, hail ravaging [despoiling] the Earth." Hogue then ties the energy shock to the same death.
"Throwing the world into an energy catastrophe that unravels the world of people and animals not abating for 27 years after MBS or Mabus was blown to bits."
He insists the point of publishing the forecast is not panic theater. He wants it read as an “urgent wake-up call” so people “choose peace over violence.”
What The Sun published is Hogue’s exclusive report: interpretations, odds, and date markers, not battlefield results or filed government orders. No agency statement in the piece confirms a nuclear go-order, a carrier sinking, or a completed collapse.
Readers can weigh a mystic’s chart against the harder work that actually keeps wars limited, deterrence, energy security, border and alliance discipline, and leaders who prefer strength that prevents a fight over sermons after one starts.
Doom dates come and go. The duty to keep the country strong, the arsenal credible, and the peace worth keeping does not.
