Yes. I meant the mullahs. I suspect they are too sophisticated to actually believe that. They’ll milk it ‘til it’s dry though.

They are in the drivers seat, if they go full tilt, it will be a problem. I’m sure the US is talking to people, doing what they can.
Seemed like this weekend they had a deal to de-escalate, or at the least the beginning of a deal.

Someone found
this article about a black flag of mourning being raised there this past July. So tweet author was wrong about the

Not just a call for Jihad.
In Muslim eschatology, the Mahdi is the one who brings the final battle. In Christian terms they have declared Armageddon.
