- NAIROBI, KENYA (ANS) -- Eritrean Christians
from all over the world are gathering in Nairobi, Kenya on Sunday, May

ISLAM:
Islamic
Rule Good for Christians, Jews, Hamas 'Mickey Mouse' Creator Says - Comment
by John Terry of Revelation Files: This
is a disturbing (but eye-opening look) at the future plans of world domination
being planned by Islam. Their children are being indoctrinated to
take control of the earth and to establish a global Islamic Caliphate (rule).
If the people in Washington DC have any lingering doubts as to the future
plans of the so-called “peaceful” Islamic nations like Iran and Syria,
then this article should serve as a wake-up call. Hitler used similar
tactics with the youth of Germany and in a very short season, raised up
an army that very nearly conquered the world. This time, their army
is global in scope and their zeal and commitment to their cause is even
greater, as it is an integral part of their religion (not just an allegiance
to a charismatic figure like Hitler). And should a mystical figure soon
rise to power, like the Mahdi (the Islamic counterpart to the antichrist),
Muslims around the globe will rally by the millions to the cause of having
Islam rule the world, and opposing all who stand in the way of Islamic
global domination without hesitation. Why? When your religion teaches
that your own death (while perpetuating acts of violence against your enemy)
guarantees you a special place in “heaven”, then followers are eager and
willing to respond in great numbers.
