I like people like you.
Thank you again

Actually I did read it and as I stated, it is a valid counter argument, id have posted it myself had I known it to exist prior to my post so that people could form their own opinions.
However, you are wrong... Just because you say it's fact doesn't make it so.
Your link is no more a fact on this subject than mine.
Dude, on this subject... There are no facts!!!
I can't even prove God exists or that there will be an antichrist. But I believe there will be one. And I think both my video and your link are interesting and have valid points.
I've done a lot if bible studies using Greek and aromatic translations to try to get to the root of a biblical scripture.
90% of the time when translating you have to make an educated guess, lots of words hold many meanings and lack direct translation.
So I agree with the author of my video that if those words were used to translate, it would in fact be his name.
But I agree with your link that alternative words could ave been used. (summing it up)
What I don't agree with is your authors and your personal arrogance that your opinion is fact and mine is stupid... They are both opinions and hold an equil amount of validity!!!

Btw... You do realize lucifer is the arch angel of light right? So the video holds validity with or without the word fallen or falling

Luke 10:18 - "And He said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning falling from the heavens". Jesus spoke these words in Aramaic, the most ancient form of Hebrew. In Strong's Hebrew dictionary, word number 1299 - a primitive root word meaning to lightnen or (lightning) or to cast forth is baraq (baw-rak'). As in Isaiah 14:16-19. the word for heights or heavens, according to Strong's Hebrew dictionary - word number 1116 - (meaning to be high); an elevation - height, high place, wave is bamah (bam-maw') In Hebrew, the letter wau or vau is translated as the letter u. Some scholars use the letter o for this transliteration. It is primarily used as a conjunction to join two concepts together. So Baraq O Bamah or Baraq U Bamah, in Hebrew poetry would translate literally as "lightning from the heights". The word satan is a direct translation in Hebrew. So, Jesus' prophecy in Luke 10:18, if spoken by a Jewish Rabbi today, influenced by the poetry of Isaiah..he would say...AND I SAW SATAN AS BARAQ O BAMAH

The words Baraq Obama have secret meaning, a warning from God?

I don't take any one thing too seriously or put too much validity on it, but when things start to add up time and time again like this. It does get my attention.
