Obama's Not The Messiah, But The Mahdi

|
Iranian President Mahmoud Abombnjihad, to foreign leaders gathered to remember the late Ayatollah Khomeini:

I must announce that the Zionist regime (Israel), with a 60-year record of genocide, plunder, invasion and betrayal is about to die and will soon be erased from the geographical scene," he said.

"Today, the time for the fall of the satanic power of the United States has come and the countdown to the annihilation of the emperor of power and wealth has started."

He seems to know the precise time the Mahdi will appear.

Ahmadinejad also again expressed his apocalyptic vision that tyranny in the world be abolished by the return to earth of the Mahdi, the 12th imam of Shiite Islam, alongside great religious figures including Jesus Christ. "With the appearance of the promised saviour... and his companions such as Jesus Christ, tyranny will be soon be eradicated in the world."
Wouldn't be 3rd week of January, 2008, would it?
