Nostradamus missed it by 8 years. WWWIII started in Nov 2001 and is well underway.
Has Nostradamus ever predicted anything correctly, before the fact?
Make that Oct 2001.
Nostradamus has never predicted anything incorrectly because he deliberately left enough ambiguities in his predictions so scholars could interpret them in a manner that conformed with actual events.
Did he really use the phrase “nuclear bombs” or is this a loose translation.

I’m not sure if Nostra is a true prophet since I have not followed all of his predictions. But, even a false prophet can be 99.9% correct. That said, I believe once Iran is capable, they will not hesitate to try and take out Israel. They will not be successful, but they will do a lot of damage that can bring the nations to their knees. It is closer now than ever before.
That’s all well and good, but who did he pick to win the Super Bowl?
It better be the Cards....Otherwise they should stay in Tampa...
I don’t believe any of this conspiracy crap.
But Iran might have a nuke next year.
If so, are we really approaching Armageddon?
Oh, you don’t need Nostradamus to tell you that. Just ask your next door neighbor and he is right if he agrees with you.

Wait, I thought Nostradomus, or whatever his name was, predicted Armagedon to be July 4, 1999.
His original text reads nothing like this.
His words and phrasing are much more circumspect.
You are absolutely correct. It is impossible to assess the Iranian threat without understanding the little nutjob's theology. Such understanding is easy to come by since he has proclaimed it openly for years. Unfortunately, no world leaders appear interested in this aspect, save Israel.
This whack job believes with every fiber of his being that it is his holy mission to pave the way for the 12th Imam by launching a massive attack against Jews and Christians. He's not posturing. Once he has a nuke and a delivery platform, he'll use it. Definitely against Israel and quite possibly against us, as well, if he has multiple nukes.
