6/20/225 Iranian Update: As Israel continues pounding Tehran, while USA maneuvers epic, bunker busting bombs: Let’s ask, Why does Iran continue its intransigent menace of war machinery to Israel’s demise? The answer is elucidated below. It emerges as an affect of radical, theologically ancient, Islamic reverence for savior Mahdi of all times. For if the Mahdi can be loosened from his occulted lair, the Muslim Apocalypse is commenced. Then, the globe can be hustled and hastened into an early end-of-ages paradise.(this is an update of a 2023 essay on the same topic)
Second Coming? Using author WB Yeats’ unparalleled poetic denouement regarding the Messiah, consider an Islamic take on his spectacular Second Coming:
Turning and turning in the widening gyre
The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity.
Surely some revelation is at hand;
Surely the Second Coming is at hand.
The Second Coming! Hardly are those words out
When a vast image out of Spiritus Mundi
Troubles my sight: somewhere in sands of the desert
A shape with lion body and the head of a man,
A gaze blank and pitiless as the sun,
Is moving its slow thighs, while all about it
Reel shadows of the indignant desert birds.
The darkness drops again; but now I know
That twenty centuries of stony sleep
Were vexed to nightmare by a rocking cradle,
And what rough beast, its hour come round at last,
Slouches towards Bethlehem to be born?
Muslim 2nd Coming: So, there is a “2nd Coming” of the Mahdi, who will appear in Jerusalem, not Bethlehem, to meet Jesus. The Shia belief is that the Mahdi was first conceived and birthed to Muhammad’s clan and then hidden at age 6, to save his life. He was secreted away in cosmic slumber in the mystical gate named “Bab-al Ghayba.” Now, in midst of a menaced total destruction of the Ayatollah’s Iran, the following text describe why the Mullahs of Iran built a religious terror state. Which DJ Trump and Israel argue must be sacrificed to deliver peace to our troubled world.
Not Ambition, But Religious Fealty Drives Iran: It's entirely understandable that most Westerners believe the recent attack by Hamas on Israel is simply lust for revenge and anger over Gaza’s conditions. But, wait! Instead, it's astounding to know the ultimate impulse in Iran funding Hamas is to usher in the age of the Mahdi, as their mighty savior. This war, designed to utterly destroy Israel was led by Iran’s Shia Islam to bring the End of Days. So, when Biden’s gave $6 billion to Iran, this guaranteed war would result, given their theology. See below…
Shia Muslims Believe Massive War Saves World: that unless a massive war comes to engage Israel, then their savior, the Mahdi, cannot reappear to bring the peace and blessings promised for 14 centuries.. The Iranians behind these attacks feel uniquely placed to render the end times, achieved by the return of the Mahdi from deep sleep. Iranians are almost wholly Shia Muslim, who believe in a mystical character named the Mahdi:
The Fervid Desire of Iran to release the curative of the pseudo-Christ Mahdi, to heal the world and bring peace by, ironically, destroying all non Muslims, as often explained by past Iranian President Ahmadinejad:
Peace by Death: It’s important to accept that the Islamic path to peace is achieved by killing every person who is not Muslim. Consider, in 1,400 AD, Muslim Warlord Tamerlane killed 90,000 non-Muslim men in one day, taking similar numbers of women into sexual slavery. See: “The Apocalypse & Islam”
Muslims Borrowed ideas and facts from other religions. For instance, The Mahdi himself is never mentioned in the Quran, yet the Mahdi is an epic figure in both Shia and Sunni Muslim religion.
See The Coming Final Battle, regarding Muslim end times views:
The Quran “Is not an apocalyptic book,” so Muslims are “forced to turn to supplementary materials—including the words attributed to Muhammad, the Bible, global conspiracy theories about Judaism, stories of UFO abductions, and theories about the Bermuda Triangle—when discussing “the confused period” that comes before these final events.”
See The Mahdi: The History of the Prophesized Figure”:
The Mahdi is Not From the Quran, or in earliest literature, yet evolved into becoming the equivalent to Christ. The above source states,
Islam’s Confusingly Distorted Bible Characters: who are re-written to fit a Muslim Mahdi narrative, presented at the End Times, strangely described below:
When Will the Mahdi Appear? According to Iranian Twelver eschatology, when the Dajji, or Anti-Christ appears. “There’s also an anti-Christ – Ad-Dajjal in Arabic. He’ll claim to be the Messiah, but is a liar. He’s a charismatic leader of the Jews, followed by them, but will finally be slaughtered by the Muslim Jesus.”
Dajji is Devil: The Dajji is described as follows: “The Prophet said (about the Dajjal) that he is one eyed, his right eye is as if a protruding out grape. The Dajjal will be blind from the left eye and upon his eye would be a thick mark (or covering); on his forehead would be written (the three letters) ka fa ra or kafir -- or ‘Infidel’.” And “He will be a young man with a ruddy complexion, with thick curly hair, blind or defective in the right eye, his left eye will be covered with a thick piece of flesh growing at the edge of his eye.”
Dajjal’s character:
One Teaching Claims Syria as the final place of the Muslim Apocalypse War of the Mahdi: “Dabiq is the name of a small town in northern Syria. According to Muslim eschatological tradition it will be the site of a major battle that will be fought between Muslims and Christian invaders, a battle that will be one of the signs that the end-times have begun.”
Now, 670 million Muslims, including an overwhelming majority in the Middle East and western Asia, expect to see the Mahdi in their lifetimes—sometime during the first half of the 21st century. See Bad Moon Rising: Islam, Armageddon…
Are you religious, do you believe God is behind all these events? And how about treachery and religious support for war? And why does Joe Biden & Co. gather the very elements needed for war against Israel, including funding, official betrayal, nuclear programs and western propagandization? We need intervention by patriots and clear headed leaders, and the mercy of God to stave off this attempt top kick-start Islamic WWIII.
