July 26: The Dreams of Ahmadinejad, Hamas, and Nasrallah "Bring Nothing but Massacres and Unbalanced Wars"

"In southern Libya, there was a dervish by the name of 'Adallah bin Mas'ud, who had disciples and students. One morning Sheikh bin Mas'ud gathered together his disciples and said to them: "I dreamt that the infedels' weapons have "gone cold" --meaning they are no longer deadly-- and thus I have decided that we will attack the French Army's fortress with cold arms." Many of the dervishes who were his students went after him, armed with knives, scythes, and swords, and attacked the French fortress in Sabha, the capital of the south. The French destroyed them all, to the last man.

"The latest dream (of this kind ) was that of the president of Iran, Ahmadinejad, who said in a speech that was broadcast on Iranian television in Mashad that Iran's joining the group of nations with nuclear technology derives from the Iranian nation's struggle, which is making a step forward towards the coming of the awaited MAHDI ( Al-Watan magazine. May 5, 2006 ). So Iran needs to manufacture a nuclear bomb before that time, in order to help the mahdi eliminate the infidels and the polytheists. .."

He goes on to say that Ahmadinejad doesn't see any need to enter into negotiations since the mahdi is coming and "He will wipe out Israel and the Sunnis, the Christians, and the Druze of Lebanon, and he ( i.e. Nasrallah ) will be the Imam's viceroy in all of Greater Syria."
