William Branham told about a series of eight prophetic visions he experienced in June 1933, before the U.S.A. and U.S.S.R. established diplomatic ties on November 16, 1933.  In the fourth vision, William Branham witnessed Fascism and Nazism being swallowed up into Communism.  A voice in the vision instructed William Branham to "watch Russia".  As part of this vision, William Branham said that Communism would destroy the Vatican.  The U.S.S.R. disolved into 15 independent nations in December, 1991.  As a result, unless Communism comes back to power in Russia, this vision can be classed as having '''failed.'''

=The problem with the prophecy=
In the Laodicean Church Age book, William Branham says, “Now let me say this. Can anyone prove any of those visions wrong? Were they not all fulfilled?”  Almost 80 years after 1933, we now have the benefit of hindsight in our ability to confirm the accuracy of these prophecies and we find a number of problems:
#Facism, Nazisim and Communism did not unite into Communism
#Communism in Russia has fallen from power and is unlikely to regain its former status.
#Communism did not destroy the Roman Catholic church.  in fact, it could be argued that the Roman Catholic church was instrumental in the toppling of Communism from power in Eastern Europe.
