Obama and Iran

Many of you know that the Shiite muslims believe that in the Last Days, the 12th Imam will come to usher in Islamic law for the entire world. This is incredible because it may explain why they will fall for the anti-christ who may be masquarading as the 12th Imam. Also, the president of Iran tells people that he has discussions with the 12th Imam who is appearing to him visually. Apparently he is telling Ahmadinejad that the Last Days are close and that he will come when the world is in total chaos. What's even more scary is that Ahmadinejad believes that he is the man to help usher in the chaos necessary to bring back the 12th Imam.

So what does Obama have to do with all this?

According to the tradition, Imam Ali Ibn Abi-Talib (the prophet's cousin and son-in-law) prophesied that at the End of Times and just before the return of the Mahdi, the Ultimate Saviour, a "tall black man will assume the reins of government in the West."

In a curious coincidence Obama's first and second names--Barack Hussein--mean "the blessing of Hussein" in Arabic and Persian. His family name, Obama, written in the Persian alphabet, reads O Ba Ma, which means "he is with us," the magic formula in Majlisi's tradition.

I sure hope Obama understands what many in Iran believe before he goes over there to shake hands and have tea with President Ahmadinejad.
