Here’s a short version of the Islamic Prophetic picture as they see it...Their particular brands of Shia and Sunni eschatology are driving them towards genocide. Why? Because they believe:
...that the End of Days have arrived.
...that the Islamic messiah known as the “Mahdi” will appear at any moment
...that when the Mahdi appears, he will rule the entire Earth
...that Jesus will also return to Earth, but not as the Messiah, or Savior, or Son of God, but as the deputy to the Mahdi
...that Jesus will force all Jews, Christians and other so-called “infidels” to convert to Islam or be executed
...that the way to hasten the arrival and full establishment of the global Islamic kingdom or “caliphate” is to annihilate Jews and Christians, and specifically to annihilate Israel (which they call the “Little Satan” in their eschatology), and the United States (which they call the “Great Satan.”)
...that time is very short, and they must move decisively because soon each Muslim will face the Mahdi face to face and be brought into judgment if they have not faithfully followed the Mahdi’s orders
They discuss such matters often — not in the shadows, but in public. Yet, Western leaders are not paying attention, much less carefully analyzing the implications of such beliefs.
If this is as true as I think it is, there is no earthly chance the leaders of Iran — or ISIS — will change course. Rather, they are Hell-bent on committing genocide of historic proportions and totally destroying Judeo-Christian civilization as we have known it.
What a pity you are right. May the Japanese never suffer the historic consequences of allowing Muslims to settle, consequences which befell all other cultures making that error.
Thanks for the data, in any case.
