Glenn Beck's TV program this afternoon covered a lot of the news concerning Israel and the plight the USA is in right now. We should have been paying more attention to how the Iranians think about their religion. They want the 12th Imam to arrive and in order to do that Jerusalem must fall and then the USA is the target.
This 12th Imam is similar to a reincarnation of Mohammed, as I understand. At least the 12 are seen as the spiritual and political successors to him.. They have not only ruled over their community but keep and interpret the Divine Law and its meaning. He seems to be a one man dynamo. The Christians see him as being the Anti-Christ.
The 12th and final Imam is Muhammad al-Mahdi and is believed to be alive and hidden until he returns. Some think that Ahmadinejad will be revealed to be the Imam.
The followers of this religion see Israel as the Little Satan and the USA as the Great Satan. By 2015 Iran will have missile strength to hit the USA. In one year they will have 1,000 balistic missles ready to use. Syria is planning on having negotiations with Iran. They are all seeing the revolutions happening in their dissatisfied countries as signs that this time is happening. Turkey is also taking part and has ideas of grandeur of reviving the Ottoman Empire.
We have a problem here when Israel is again established after a hiatus of 2,000 years and has experienced an ingathering of its people from the 4 corners of the world with peace first on the agenda for its people and others only to be met with conflict and hatred because the surrounding community has been taught another agenda. Muslims, though divided in their religion between Sunni and Shiite are now counting on the 12th Imam to return, but in order to do so must see the fall of Israel. Does anyone possibly see this as the main problem in establishing peace for Israel? Whether or not Abbas buys into all this is inconsequential. He's going to be sucked up into it.
Israel is not alone. Glenn referred to her as the canary in the cage. The USA is also the target; not for being Israel's friend but for their own involvement with the Middle East countries. All along Netanyahu has been saying that Iran is his main concern, mainly because of their atomic plans. I doubt if even he has realized the zealousness that the 12th Imam is causing.
