It would be interesting to know the origin of the Tarot cards in use in the Middle East.
Were they of moslem origin, or were they reintroduced by the Venetians who occupied Cyprus for many years? I don't know; it's an interesting question. Nor do I know how prominently Tarot, and the occult in general, figure in the Islamic world today.
Alot of serial killers are interested in the occult. Son of Sam said that "SAM" the dog told him to kill. He also was involved with sacrificial rites. He would go to the park with some other people and practice their black magic. Also the Zodiac killer was interested in the occult. It's not uncommon for serial killers to be swayed by some wierd cult. It hasn't happened in a long time but who is to say it can't happen now.
Nor do I know how prominently Tarot, and the occult in general, figure in the Islamic world today. That famous film of Bin Laden rambling on about dreams, etc. impressed me greatly.
These people (OBL, Atta, etc.) I am sure are deeply 'into' the occult
and no doubt have messianic visions of themselves.
The history of Islam is replete with examples of this type.
