Apparently the Mahdi is going to reveal himself then and purge the unbeliever.
No word on who he may be, except he is definitely not Abdullah Hamid Mohammed Al-Qahtani.
Wouldn't that just piss the Christians off if Islam got it right? :lulz:
I'm cheering for them. I haven't had a decent purging since my last colonoscopy.
Oh my. :lulz:
Now I can accuse 2012 believers of hating our freedoms. :lulz:
I'll dig out a quote from AQ's chief strategist tomorrow, just for extra lulz.
But yeah. At this rate, it's gonna turn out Sarah Palin is the Quetzocoatl-Mahdi-Archangel Michael and we wont need to have an Apocalypse because everyone will kill each other off or put their own eyes out once they know this.
Please do, there are Christian 'friends' on my fb page. About twice a month I needle them, no idea why they stick around.
This is Major Haroon, former Pakistani Special Forces officer, architect of the 2006 AQ/Taliban offensive, mastermind of several major assassinations of Pakistani officers and tribal area warlords, one of the founders of Lashkar-al-Zil (the "Army of Shadows", Al-Qaeda's strategic special forces unit tasked with the most difficult and dangerous attacks), talking in 2008:
QuoteThis is the time the Mahdi will make his presence felt. By all the estimates and reckonings of Muslim scholars he has already been born. By 2012, he will come forward to command the Muslim forces in the Middle East and defeat the Western forces led by the Dajjal (Antichrist).

The translation of 'Dajjal' as 'anti-christ' seems like an odd choice of words.

I think it was done that way to express the concept rather than the word. No on calls Jesus the Anointed.
An end-time deciever who pretends to be a messiah? Sounds like an Antichrist to me.
Also, the interviewer is from Pakistan, despite writing in English, so I am putting a fair level of trust in his translation.

I looked it up. The Dajjal is an 'equivalent' figure to the anti-christ in Christian tradition. For ease of translation and making a comparison, it works well, but from a pedantic, theological p.o.v. it seemed kind of weird (to me anyway.)
No matter how you slice it, it sounds stupid. Anti-christs in anyone's religion are stupid and even more so when they get tagged onto 2012.
Well, Al-Qaeda aren't that big on theology anyway.

Well, yes. But also, they think it's not their concern because they're not the Shariah Enforcement Police (their activities in Iraq nonwithstanding), they're the military core of a global resistance movement against American hegemony. Theology is only useful as a weapon against the apostate rulers of Muslim states, to throw their legitimacy into question.
The Western forces lead by the Dajjal will arise, but our guy will stop them!

Maybe Quetzacoatl will tag team with Jesus?
:lulz: :lulz: YES
So Mahdi is the Christian Antichrist, and Jesus is the Muslim Dajjal, and the two of them are going to duke it out soon? Fuck yeah!
Is anyone else as stoked as I am about the fact that a Google search for '2012 mayan nibiru rapture dajjal jesus antichrist (http://www.google.com/search?q=2012+mayan+nibiru+rapture+dajjal+jesus+antichrist)' returns 14,000 results?
This century is shaping up to be the funniest one yet.
