Iran Still Claiming the Return of Twelfth Imam to Show Soon

April 18, 2011 by Daniel

Robert Spencer at Jihad Watch put out a great read on Iran and their continuing claim of the twelfth imam that will soon make its presence known. – Take the time to read the entire post.

JihadWatch | Rep of Iran’s Supremo says: “The situation in Bahrain alone could be a catalyst for the United States to strike out on their own and cause the downfall of that straw empire”

The Twelfth Imam disappeared over 1100 years ago, and hasn’t been heard from in over 1,050 years. After his disappearance in 874, the Twelfth Imam communicated through three messengers. In his last communiqué to the world, via one of these messengers in the year 941, this mysterious figure consoled his followers with prophesies regarding his eventual reappearance. The circumstances of that reappearance could, in the hands of Iran’s mad mullahs, visit upon the world calamities of a scale never before seen. And Israel and America will bear the brunt.

“Hearts,” warned Mohammad al-Mahdi, the Twelfth Imam, in his last message, “will become inaccessible to compassion. The earth will be filled with tyranny and violence.” He was speaking of the time of his reappearance, explaining that he would only come back to the world when the evil that Muslims were suffering was at its absolute apex. In this he echoed a Shi’ite tradition of the words of the prophet of Islam himself, Muhammad, who prophesied that the Twelfth Imam would be “the Resurrector” and explained: “He will fill the world with peace and justice as today it is filled with violence and tyranny.”

That violence and tyranny is not incidental to the theology of the Twelfth Imam, which has revenge as its core and essence. The dispute between the majority Sunnis and the Shiat Ali (Party of Ali) began upon the death of Muhammad in 632. The Sunnis contended that the prophet of Islam had made no provision for a successor as political, military, and spiritual leader of the Muslim community, and that therefore the Muslims should choose the best man among them as their leader. The nascent Party of Ali, on the contrary, claimed that Muhammad had designated his son-in-law Ali ibn Abi Talib as his successor, and that the successor of Muhammad had to be a member of the prophet’s household.

Iranian Video Warns of Coming Mahdi

March 28, 2011 by Daniel

It is no secret that Iran wants to wipe Israel of the face of the Earth. And, if you want to point to the Bible as your guide, or just want to listen to that sick feeling in your stomach, the idea of erasing a whole nation of people should leave you questioning someones rationale. However, that is what Iran wants. They want Israel gone!

So, what is a ‘Mahdi?’ Some say it is a mythical person. Others, including those who follow Islam, refer to it as an Islamic messiah. Why is this important? It is somewhat of a revelation to followers of Islam. And, with so much turmoil going on in the Middle Eastern area, it offers them even more to look to.

Whether you want to look at this video as pure propoganda, it should still shine a disturbing light your way.

Israel, US behind Stuxnet Virus

January 16, 2011 by Daniel

Reports are now out about the Stuxnet virus, and it points to Israel and the United States. Tested in an Israeli nuclear facility for effectiveness, it was targeted toward Iran and slowing down their nuclear ambitions.

New York Times:

The Dimona complex in the Negev desert is famous as the heavily guarded heart of Israel’s never-acknowledged nuclear arms program, where neat rows of factories make atomic fuel for the arsenal.

Over the past two years, according to intelligence and military experts familiar with its operations, Dimona has taken on a new, equally secret role — as a critical testing ground in a joint American and Israeli effort to undermine Iran’s efforts to make a bomb of its own.

Behind Dimona’s barbed wire, the experts say, Israel has spun nuclear centrifuges virtually identical to Iran’s at Natanz, where Iranian scientists are struggling to enrich uranium. They say Dimona tested the effectiveness of the Stuxnet computer worm, a destructive program that appears to have wiped out roughly a fifth of Iran’s nuclear centrifuges and helped delay, though not destroy, Tehran’s ability to make its first nuclear arms.

“To check out the worm, you have to know the machines,” said an American expert on nuclear intelligence. “The reason the worm has been effective is that the Israelis tried it out.”
