As I understand your statement, there is a sect of Jews who believe they must do evil to make the Messiah come or at least to hasten His return. This sort of belief is similar to apocalyptic Islamists like Ahmahdinejad who believe that by spreading chaos they will hasten the return of the 12th Imam. Do you have names of any presently-living influential Jews who actually believe a Messiah is coming and that they can hasten His return by doing evil?

Correct. It's just as evil too.

Haven't read that far; Antelman's books are organized historically. As I understand it, that list is in Volume 2, although I don't doubt for a minute that it includes the House of Rothschild. Do check out the interview at the link above.
