He does seem to see himself as Caliph rebuilding the Ottoman Empire.
This is why Globalist Leftist are drawn to this. They believe that their cause is soo goood, and their motives are beyond anyone else and their vision is so beyond anything in the past that they must destroy the entire system that has evolved over eons and rebuild their beautiful world from scratch. And anyone who opposes their vision must be killed.
Yep, same mindset.
We witness the convergence of the Godless Left, Global Fascists and Islamists against the Christians, Jews and Freedom Lovers. Each of the 1st 3 believe they will win over the other 2 and rule the world. In the end, none will, but God will prevail.
