Iran and the End Times
Iranian President Mahmoud's Ahmadinejad's mystical pre-occupation with the coming of a Shiite Islamic messiah figure – the Mahdi – is raising concerns that a nuclear-armed Islamic Republic could trigger the kind of global conflagration he envisions will set the stage for the end of the world.
While Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has been making headlines lately by questioning whether the Holocaust actually happened, by suggesting Israel should be moved to Europe and by demanding the Jewish state be wiped off the face of the earth, his apocalyptic religious zealotry has received less attention.
...suggesting Israel should be moved to Europe...

Should Israel, and all the monuments that lie in her land be moved? Stone by stone, perhaps? Can you fit all of Megiddo on a supertanker? How deep would you dig, and where would Israel go?
Sorry, I know this is a serious thread... the wording just sparked my sense of the ridiculous.
My humble opinion: If Iran hates Israel, it's Israel's problem. It is not the place of the United States to strike first to prevent a war with a country that hasn't even asked us to get involved.
(From original article)
Taraghi says the U.S. is "trying to place itself as the new Mahdi." This may mean no peace with Iran, he adds, "unless America changes its hegemonic ... thinking, doesn't use nuclear weapons, [or] impose its will on other nations."
