 Could Osama Bin Laden be the Prophesied Imam Mahdi?
Source of story, from which Farah derived it, was "Bin Ladin: The Man Who Would Be Mahdi" by Timothy R. Furnish, Ph.D., published in "Middle East Quarterly," Spring 2002 (www.meforum.org/article/159).
He said the Imam Mahdi is not quite a "prophet" (Mohammed was the last), "but he will be the closest thing to it -- a big, powerful person," implying that Osama Bin Laden doesn't even clome close to showing up on that particular radar screen.
He is an angry fanatic right now, but by the time God is done refining him and those of his following, he and they could be transformed into decent citizens that any of us would be thrilled to have as neighbors living next door.
