WND.com reports: “With the U.S. and Israeli delegations absent in boycott, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad addressed the General Assembly on the Jewish holiday of Yom Kippur in a rambling, apocalyptic speech in which he declared his confidence that the table already is being set for a ‘new world order.’

What Ahmadinejad means by ‘new world order,’ however, has nothing to do with the globalist economic and political integration envisioned by President George H. W. Bush.

Known internationally as ‘Twelvers,’ radical Shiite Muslims like Ahmadinejad believe the new order will come with the return of their messiah, the Mahdi – the child imam who supposedly went into seclusion at the bottom of a well more than 1,000 years ago.

Indeed, after a long diatribe in which he blamed Western civilization for most of the world’s major problems, Ahmadinejad concluded his speech today with an extensive description of his belief that the Mahdi will soon usher the world into a new era of peace and prosperity…” (Is it not sad that Islam looks for the return of their messiah, Mahdi, while America’s pastors ignore the message of Christ’s imminent return mentioned in 10,350 verses of God’s Holy Word. Paul tells the Christian ministers to “preach the Word” in II Timothy 4:2 – 4 and the message they are to proclaim is found in verse 8: “Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that love his appearing.” See the next report.)

WND.com reports: “For the first time, Iran’s highest-ranking military official has tied the reappearance of the last Islamic messiah to the regime being prepared to go to a war based on ideology.

‘With having the treasure of the Holy Defense, Valayat (Guardianship of the Jurist) and martyrs, we are ready for a big war,’ Defense Minister Ahmad Vahidi said, according to Mashregh news, which is run by the Revolutionary Guards.

‘Of course this confrontation has always continued; however, since we are in the era of The Coming, this war will be a significant war.’

Shi’ites believe that at the end of time great wars will take place, and Imam Mahdi, the Shi’ites’ 12th imam, will reappear and kill all the infidels, raising the flag of Islam in all corners of the world…”
