This was hatched.

Yes, but a thousand and a half years ago...

I am very disturbed that no one seems to be calling out a critical tipping point that has taken place.

For the first time in the modern age, an Islamic State has been created - not through simmering revolution, but by bloody frontal conquest of land - and there are legions of disciplined, skilled fanatics with heavy weapons, boots on the ground and overwhelming initiative. The Islamic State of Iraq and al-Sham has effectively become reality, and I expect them to capture the imagination of both Sunni and Shia. They are tearing up passports and wearing allegiance to a State, not merely celebrating sectarian butchery.

The moment Islam reunites, the West is in the deathgrip of the beheader.

I believe ISIS will capture the imagination of the umma - and its allegiance.

So... the Sunni/Shia schism will melt away under this long-awaited Caliphate? Did the 12th Imam/well prediction happen when we weren’t looking?
