Three alarming predictions about the future of the world made by John Hogue, an author who calls himself “America’s Nostradamus,” have attracted international media attention. Hogue has spent the past four decades studying the writings of the renowned 16th-century French astrologer Nostradamus. He combines ancient texts, astrology, and current global political developments to make predictions about the future. According to a report by a British website, Hogue’s three major predictions are as follows.
John Hogue has claimed that the United States could lose its status as a global superpower by September 11, 2028, which will mark the 27th anniversary of the September 11 attacks in the United States. He has warned that the period from September 2026 to September 2028 could prove extremely critical for the United States and represent a major turning point. According to Hogue, factors such as rising national debt, inflation, potential fuel shortages, internal political divisions, and the leadership of President Donald Trump could significantly weaken America’s global influence. However, experts say these claims do not establish that the U.S. economy will actually decline by that date.
John Hogue’s second prediction concerns a potential nuclear confrontation between the United States and Iran. He claims that an attack on Iran’s underground nuclear facilities could trigger a major retaliatory response across the region. He has warned that Iran could retaliate by targeting American naval vessels with missiles, while North Korean drones could also pose a threat to the U.S. Navy in the Arabian Sea. Additionally, escalating tensions between Russia and European countries, along with direct European intervention in the Ukraine war, could gradually lead to the use of nuclear weapons.
John Hogue’s third and most extraordinary prediction concerns a prolonged global war that, he claims, could last as long as 27 years. According to Hogue, such a prolonged conflict could severely disrupt the oil, natural gas, and helium industries in West Asia, placing enormous pressure on global energy supplies, food systems, and water resources. Hogue says his intention is not to frighten people but to highlight the importance of peace by warning them about the potentially devastating consequences of war and violence. Meanwhile, experts point out that people have interpreted and translated the writings of Nostradamus in different ways for centuries, and there is considerable disagreement over how his ambiguous verses should be connected to subsequent events. According to historians and scientists, astrology and ancient prophecies cannot provide scientifically reliable dates for specific wars, economic disasters, or the decline of global powers.
