| What it means to us that Iran's Top Leaders Believe That the End of Days Has Come Thanks to Larry Taylor, From the Edge Alerts, for this heads up. Excerpts: Ayatollah Ibrahim Amini, a professor at the Religious Learning Centre in Qom, wrote a noteworthy book entitled, Al-Imam al-Mahdi, the Just Leader of Humanity, describing the connection between Shia eschatology and Iranian foreign policy. "Those who persist in their disbelief and wickedness shall be killed by the soldiers of the Mahdi," wrote Amini. "The only victorious government in the entire world will be that of Islam, and people will devotedly endeavor to protect it. Islam will be the religion of everyone, and will enter all the nations of the world. . . .The Mahdi will offer the religion of Islam to the Jews and the Christians; if they accept it they will be spared, otherwise they will be killed. . . . It seems unlikely that this catastrophe can be avoided. . . . Warfare and bloodshed [are] inevitable. . . The Imam of the Age and his supporters will overcome the forces of disbelief and godless materialism by undertaking jihad." In light of such End Times theology, we shouldn't be surprised that the Iranian regime is taking a more aggressive posture towards the U.S. and Israel. Instead, we should be taking decisive measures to prevent Iran from blind-siding us in the not-too-distant future with a nuclear terrorist attack or even an electromagnetic pulse (EMP) attack Unfortunately, most of Washington and the world's leadership is asleep to the prospect of this gathering storm. It is time to wake up, before it's too late. Joel C. Rosenberg is the author of eight New York Times best-selling books about the Middle East. His most recent political thriller is "The Tehran Initiative."
