Tehran, Iran, Mar. 02 Irans radical President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad declared on Thursday in Malaysia that Islam will be the dominant power in the near future, the official state news agency reported.
The near future will be in the hands of Islam, Ahmadinejad said after a meeting in Kuala Lumpur with the King of Malaysia. He cited the victory of the Islamist group Hamas in the recent Palestinian elections as a sign of the rise of Islamism in the world.
History has shown that when Muslims become powerful, they do not use their power to the detriment of others, but use it in the service of peace and tranquillity, Ahmadinejad said.
The Iranian presidents vision of a world dominated by Islam in the near future is bound to exacerbate concern in the West and among moderate Muslims, who are alarmed by his strong views on the imminent return of the Shiite messiah, the Mahdi.
Ahmadinejad is on record as saying that he sees his main mission as being that of preparing the stage for the return of the Mahdi, said Ali Basrawi, an Iraqi Shiite political analyst living in London. He belongs to a school of thought that believes the Mahdi would return only when the world is in deep crisis. That political philosophy, particularly if devoutly believed in, could lead to very erratic and unpredictable decisions by the president of a country on the verge of acquiring nuclear weapons.
Ahmadinejad told the Malaysian monarch that Muslims around the world bear a very heavy responsibility to introduce Islam to others.
He accused nuclear powers of bullying and threatening smaller nations.
I'd say the "near future" is the only future this guy's got.
Are we talking about the same Islam?
Bush needs to take out the Mullah's nuke program soon, or this may come to pass.
His version of Islam in another version of Naziism.
LOL, I get it...Islam will dominate and the Pres. of Iran gives as an example the election win of Hamas in the Palestinean "nation-state", the most powerless, dependent upon their enemy, ghoulish bunch of misfits on the Earth.
Yep, a domination of the world is certainly next.
" They make a desert and call it peace..."
[8.39] And fight with them until there is no more persecution and religion should be only for Allah; but if they desist, then surely Allah sees what they do.
Yeah, no kidding.
UAE might be a nice place to launch that strike.
Too much time in the sun bakes the brain!
Speak for yourself. The rest of us aren't kissing up to Muslims.
Besides, the only geographical locations on earth Muslims dominate are trash-holes of oppressed backward societies.
Not exactly models of the future.
History has shown that when Muslims become powerful, they do not use their power to the detriment of others, but use it in the service of peace and tranquillity,
You've really got to smoking or shooting something to buy this crap. Unfortunately, that's exactly what many Lefties are doing. They probably find this guy more credible than George Bush.
That must mean in between murdering each other because they belong to another sect of the "religion".
The way we are all kissing up to the Muslims, I am beginning to believe him.
Our "kissing up" to the Muslims reminds me how confident strong guys give jerks some room to mouth off, so that when they finally kick their a$$ they don't look like bullies.
