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."
Well, the first thing this ex-Director of Mosad, the world's best intel outfit, should do is call little Tony Blair and little Jorge Bush and let them know that this is really a war against Islam after all. They still don't get it. And the Muslims have known it all along, so why keep WWIII a secret from just those two guys?
Many refer to the Cold War with the Soviet Union as WW III, which we won with Reagan in office.
If we hit Iran, it must come as a complete surprise
If We can only keep the Dims from spilling the beans.
A monarch is not a leader.

They are the main ones who created the problem (Carter, Clinton, Gore). Hopefully they will realize that their mess has to be cleaned up for the safety and security of the Free World. Believe it or not Senator Rhino McCain also helped Gore setup his ill fated illegal deal with the Russians regarding their support for Iran. Why does John McCain's name keep showing up in the worse places ? The main problem however may be Russia. Will they go for broke or just flat busted ?
thanks
We had almost 100,000 American KIA in III.

On the EVE of... Just where has this man been these last few years?
Because he has sojourned in a suburb of Manchuria, perhaps? I have wondered about that from time to time.
THE DRAGON'S FURY SERIES
A Techno-thriller series about America and World War III
I do not believe it will just be the fundamental Islamic nations. I believe Red China and N. Korea will join in, and probably Venezuela and Argentina for good measure. Russia will try and play both ends against the middle and several countries in Europe will try and sit it out...for a time. Ourselves, the UK, Canada (Maybe), Australia, Japan and opthers will be on the forefront from the get go.
Ya know, an actual war might be an improvement. We can clean their clocks, nuke 'em, occupy 'em, and take their oil. Don't have to put up with this PC "death by nibbling" and "Religion of Peace" and "Respect their culture" crap. Just order the guns and kill...
Our southern border is a second front in this war. It is an Islamic War and the Latinos are becoming part of it. Japan and Germany were paert of the same war in the 40s. In this war there are no formal alliances yet. Some are beginning to take shape, however. The leftist dictators of South America are thinking they would like to join this thing and do not perceive Islam as their enemy. And yes, it is a war against Islam because the radicals have become the moving force of all Islam. The peaceloving Mohammedans may even remain for now in the majority but their weight is still on the Islamic side in the war. Those that are not, however great their number are rapidly becoming peripheral to Islam. If (did I really say if?) America wins this war, those "moderates" who are on this side of the ocean will convert or apostasize as soon as it becomes apparent that we are winning because a moderate Mohammedan in the current climate has a weak attachment to his religion. Because of the coercion in Araby moderates there will follow along as cannon fodder or just try to hunker down and cover their heads. Jihadis on this side will leave, go to prison, or flame out and die.
Canada yes.
