JERUSALEM Global civilization is on the verge of "World War III," a massive conflict in which the Islamic world will attempt to impose its ideology on Western nations, according to Meir Amit, a former director of Israel's Mossad intelligence agency.
Amit, one of the most esteemed figures in the international defense establishment, warned Islamic nations and global Islamist groups will continue launching "all kinds of attacks" against Western states. He urged the international community to immediately unite and coordinate a strategy to fight against the "Islamic war."
We are on the eve of war with the Islamic world, which will wage a war and all kinds of actions and attacks against the Western world. We already noticed the terrorists in the world hit Spain, England, France. I call it World War III. You must look at it from this angle and treat it wider, not as a problem of terrorism here and there," said Amit, speaking during an exclusive interview with WND's Aaron Klein and ABC Radio's John Batchelor broadcast on Batchelor's national program, for which Klein serves as a co-host. (Listen to the Amit interview.)
Amit served as Mossad chief from 1963 to 1968. He directed some of the most notorious Mossad operations during that time and pioneered many of the tactics currently used by intelligence agencies worldwide. The subject of multiple books and movies, Amit is routinely described as a "living legend." Now in his mid-80s, Amit serves as chairman of Israel's Center for Special Studies.
The former intelligence chief referenced recent terror attacks against Israel, Europe and the United States; Iran's alleged nuclear ambitions; the insurgency in Iraq and Afghanistan; and worldwide Muslim riots.
"It looks to me like it is a kind of coordinated or contemplated problem to somehow impose the Islamic idea all over the world," Amit said.
Israel is routinely attacked by Palestinian terror groups. Since December 2000, 993 Israelis have been killed. Spain in March 2004 was struck by a series of coordinated bombings on its commuter train system, killing 192 people. London was rocked last July by bombings on its transportation system. France has been the scene of violent Muslim riots and attacks. And on Sept. 11, 2001, 2,986 people were killed when the U.S. was hit with coordinated terror attacks.
Violent Muslim riots erupted last month in the West Bank, Syria and Lebanon after cartoon images of Muhammad were printed in a Danish newspaper. The riots spread across the Middle East and throughout Europe.
At least 40 people were killed yesterday in a blast north of Mosul in Iraq. Iran and Syria have been accused of aiding the insurgency there and in Afghanistan against U.S. and European troops.
Amit urged Western nations to "unite and work together. Unfortunately, the world is not uniting. China and Russia are problems. This should be taken into consideration."
Both China and Russia have been aiding Iran's nuclear program, which Tehran claims is intended for peaceful purposes only. Russia last month received a delegation of Hamas leaders, and pledged to maintain diplomatic relations with the terror group in spite of efforts by the U.S. and Israel to isolate the newly elected Hamas-led Palestinian government.
Amit said Iran currently poses the most serious threat to the international community.
"The Iranians [are] financing terrorists in Israel and sending money," Amit said. "This is [my country's] immediate problem. But I think the most serious problem is Iran developing nuclear power."
AntiChrist=Islam
Correction: WWIV...and it's already started.
The total absense of any moderate leadership in the muslim world is a real problem. And a growing one. Indeed any leadership whatsoever other than crazed incitement to rage.
IMO Bush should make a speech to the entire muslim world from time to time.
Just heard Senator Bill Frist say it on NBC.
Well if we do unite with at least what is left of the powerful western nations, (France is a goner, rest of mainland Europe currently neutralized), lets not telegraph our moves to them. No more UN sanctions. No more counting moon phases. No more media coverage of the battles. If we hit Iran, it must come as a complete surprise.
Wasn't there something aobut a 'blue turbaned leader' from the middle east who led the world into war from which it never recovered in Nostradamus?
"Both China and Russia have been aiding Iran's nuclear program, which Tehran claims is intended for peaceful purposes only.

PUTIN OF RUSSIA AND HU OF CHINA CANNOT BE TRUSTED, PERIOD. BUSH'S NEW STRATEGIC PARTNERSHIP WITH INDIA IS DESIGNED TO COUNTER BOTH OF THEIR DEVIOUS AMBITIONS. VIVA BUSH!
I agree, the only thing left is the "official" declarations.
People, countries and factions have been blatantly picking sides for the last couple years.
We are already in WW IV. WW III was won.
People, countries and factions have been blatantly picking sides for the last couple years.
Just check any system admins security logs and it becomes clearer and clearer who is on what side.
Ya think?
The simple facts are that there were way too many of them. They have foolishly demonstrated the problem. But that is the left for you, a ship of fools.
"The total absense of any moderate leadership in the muslim world is a real problem."
The King of Jordan seems pretty sensible on most topics.....
Near impossible in this day and age waaay to many Sats in orbit to try and hide from when masking large scale troop movements.
The Leavenworth Documents show that Saddam did not like him at all. Could not understand why he sided with the west on so many issues.
While Nosty refers to the middle east and Libya in a few of his prophetic verses, nothing is ever specific enough to point to a recognizable coming event..
Actually, it is even unclear whether MALUS is the actual anti-christ, or is the final precursor to the anti-christ..
As for whether MALUS or the anti-christ actually comes out of the middle east, far east, or even America, is left unclear, vague, and confusing..
That "Blue Turban" guy comes out of a wildly inaccurate TV documentary hosted / narrated by one of those Star Trek TNG guys.. ( one of the 10 worst Nostradamus documentaries ever done.. )
Let me finish by explaining why...
Nostradamus was actually unconcerned with world events and their future outcome..
His only true concern in making his prophecies was...
France..
Yeah, all those prophecies are made in relation with France, and the future of France, how it will affect France, will France approve, etc...
Likewise, the few actual times, ( day, month, year ) that Nosty uses are questionable as well..
The adoption of the Gregorian calendar was made about this time, and depending on which calendric system he used, there may be a variation of several years between his date for a prophecy and ours..
So take it all with a grain of salt, and anything you hear about the prophecies of Nostradamus should be appreciated for it's entertainment value only..
what happened to ww3?
