Rhys-Davies revealed that as far back as 1955 his father had predicted that “the next World War will be between Islam and the West.” The actor recalled his response: “I said to him, ’Dad, you’re nuts! The Crusades have been over for hundreds of years!’ And he said, ’Well, I know, but militant Islam is on the rise again. And you will see it in your lifetime.’ He’s been dead some years now. But there’s not a day that goes by that I don’t think of him and think, ’God, I wish you were here, just so I could tell you that you were right.’”

(Major Snippage) What he said was beautiful! Well done and I applaud him. Looks like i'll have to bump John Rhys-Davies to the head of the class and put him in my 5 top actor's list. I know myself, I've felt that we were headed into a war with militant Moslems as early as 1979 when our hostages were seized in Iran. I have the august 13th, 1951 issue of Time Magazine with an article written about the Moslem world also.

A lady I know said the opening shot of the present war with Islam was the taking of the American hostages in 1979.
