'We're on the eve of World War III'

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.

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."

Amit said Israel should not lead a military attack against Iran's suspected nuclear facilities, instead urging support for the course of diplomacy and sanctions.

"The problem of [Iranian] nuclear armaments is not an Israeli problem; it is a worldwide problem. Your question refers to what Israel can do. It shouldn't do anything by itself. It should maybe throw the idea that this is a world problem and all the Western world should unite, join hands and work together," said Amit.

"I am not sure whether a military operation would be the best solution. At least not the first solution. But you can put sanctions on Iran."

With regard to his warnings of a new world war, Amit clarified he was not advocating the international community take measures against all Arab countries:

"I know very well the Arab world. I have many friends in Arab world leaders. Not all of them think the same. They are also split in different groups. ... Although I think they will wage an Islamic war against the Western world, we must take into account they are not one piece. Somehow we must learn the differences between different sections and parts of the Arab world."

Only on the verge?????

Wow.

I knew this about 3 nano-seconds after the Towers got whacked.

[cll]

"did I miss a World War?"

The Roman Empire vs. Carthage?

[dakine]

No, no, no...it is the GWOT. I know, the military gave out pretty little ribbons...

[wmileo]

I fear a civil war in this country before WWIII. There are so many people living inside our borders who do not identify with the principles this country was founded on. There are millions, legal or otherwise who do not respect our sovereignty. If this civil war erupts, count on the Hollywood idiots to betray us as they have already done in the past. If I could live just long enough to see the Hollywood Left get what they have been asking for for decades, I will die a happy man. I will leave it to the living to show these Apostles of Peace the quickest way to Allah.

As the Leader of the Free World Bush cannot pop off and say any damned fool thing he wishes. Tact and diplomacy must be used to bring over to our side Moslems not wishing to kill us. This is how we gain allies in Iraq, the UAE, Afganistan, Saudi Arabia and Jordan. These allies are not only of great assistance in this war but in the case of Iraqis demonstrate incredible courage in taking on the Killers. They are willing to risk their lives just standing in line to join the police and military and endanger their families as well

Those foolish enough to think that the President should attack those allying with us probably though FDR should have called Stalin a "tyrant" and "murderer" all the time Soviet troops were dying by the millions fighting our common enemy.

There is a time for every season under the sun. Too bad some have not figured out such simple things.

[napscoordinator]

They have been saying this nonsense for years. World War III was supposed to happen 25 years ago or so. Why do people believe these stupid lies?

>Global civilization is on the verge of "World War III"

Manic depression
Is touching my soul
I know what I want
But I just don’t know
How to go about gettin’ it
Feeling sweet feeling,
Drops from my fingers
Fingers
Manic depression
Is catchin’ my soul

Woman so weary
The sweet cause in vain
You make love, you break love
It’s all the same
When it’s, when it’s over, Mama,
Music, sweet music,
I wish I could caress
Caress
Manic depression
Is a frustrating mess

Well, I think I’ll go
Turn myself off,
And go on down
All the way down
Really ain’t no use
In me hanging around
In your kinda scene

Music, sweet music,
I wish I could caress
With a kiss
Manic depression
Is a frustrating mess

I hate to think our leaders are afraid of the truth but that is apparently the case. Anyone who calls Islam a peaceful religion is either a liar or delusional.

[FBD]

Yes, Islam is capable of imposing it's ideology on the Western world.
Consider what Winston Churchill said about Islam, a hundred years ago:

---

"No stronger retrograde force exists in the world....
Far from being moribund, Mohammedanism is a militant and proselytizing faith."

"It has already spread throughout Central Africa, raising fearless warriors at every step; and were it not that Christianity is sheltered in the strong arms of science -- the science against which it had vainly struggled -- the civilisation of modern Europe might fall, as fell the civilisation of ancient Rome." -Winston Churchill on Islam

---

-Consider what this primitive culture did on 9/11 with box cutters, and some hijacked planes...
...consider what has happened in Denmark, France, etc, etc.

Yes, through death and destruction, Islam is capable of imposing it's will on others, but only if western scholars and politicians continue to call it a "religion of peace".

Ibn Warraq, author of "Leaving Islam" maintains that:

"Muslims do not need patronizing liberals to meet them halfway; Muslims need to write an honest biography of the prophet that does not shun the truth, least of all cover it up with the dishonest subterfuge of condescending western scholars"

-Ibn Warraq is the author of; "Why I Am Not A Muslim", "Studies on Muhammad", "Rise of Islam", and "Leaving Islam"

[pointsal]

Of course, I remember shortly after 9/11 when Franklin Graham said Islam was wicked and evil and people were up in arms that he would say something like that. Upon reflection, who was right?

It certainly appears that Mr. Graham was right on the money.

EVE OF DESTRUCTION

The eastern world, it is explodin’.
Violence flarin’, bullets loadin’
You’re old enough to kill, but not for votin’
You don’t believe in war, but what’s that gun you’re totin’
And even the Jordan River has bodies floatin’

Don’t you understand what I’m tryin’ to say
Can’t you feel the fears I’m feelin’ today?
If the button is pushed, there’s no runnin’ away
There’ll be no one to save, with the world in a grave
[Take a look around ya boy, it's bound to scare ya boy]

Yeah, my blood’s so mad feels like coagulatin’
I’m sitting here just contemplatin’
I can’t twist the truth, it knows no regulation.
Handful of senators don’t pass legislation
And marches alone can’t bring integration
When human respect is disintegratin’
This whole crazy world is just too frustratin’

But you tell me
Over and over and over again, my friend
Ah, you don’t believe
We’re on the eve
of destruction.

Ronald Reagan boldly called the USSR an "evil empire".
It was an honest confrontation of a political ideology...

We need to be just as bold, with Islam, as it is also a political ideology, more then a religion. (Read what Iranian Amer Taheri says about this, in "Islam is incompatible with democracy")

-Ibn Warraq, author of "Why I Am Not A Muslim", writes:

"Muslims do not need patronizing liberals to meet them halfway; Muslims need to write an honest biography of the prophet that does not shun the truth, least of all cover it up with the dishonest subterfuge of condescending western scholars"
-Ibn Warraq is the author of; "Why I Am Not A Muslim", "Studies on Muhammad", "Rise of Islam", and "Leaving Islam"

It's coming and we are sitting on our hands, letting the UN and democrats draft our reactions and actions. If the dems get in charge of this country, start getting your knees in shape to drop 6 times a day and face the east, cause it's coming if we do not stand up, recognize the dangers, and defend western civilization NOW.

[Rummyfan]

I thought that as of September 11th 2001, we were in World War IV!

[Rummyfan]

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

We have to be patient. We didn't actually have to have the nuclear exchange with the Soviets and eventually prevailed. With the Islama-whackos however.....

[wagglebee]

I think we are actually already in WW4. But the author is right, the jihadists want to impose Islamofascism on the world the same way the communists and the Nazis did in the 20th Century. It's time Americans started admitting what we're dealing with and do something about it. The only reason this does seem like an all-out war on the level of WW2 is because the jihadists don't have much in the way of modern weaponry, but they are working on it -- we need to destroy them before it's too late.

[xarmydog]

Warren Zevon wrote a song 20-25 years ago called The Envoy.The song was so far ahead of its time its unreal.It would seem like he wrote it yesterday.You would be surprised.

[Rummyfan]

Somehow we must learn the differences between different sections and parts of the Arab world.

And just what are the differences? Push any Arab Muslim and pretty soon they start screaming it's all the JEWS fault!

[antaresequity]

I think the target Osama wants to destroy is the oil in Saudi Arabia...

If he had a nuke and could take SA offline as a producer...the world would melt into chaos...
