Hamas Cleric Yunis Al-Astal Predicts 'Rome Will Be Conquered by Islam'
Hamas Cleric Predicts 'Rome Will Be Conquered by Islam'

A sermon last Friday by a prominent Muslim cleric and Hamas member of the Palestinian parliament openly declared that "the capital of the Catholics, or the Crusader capital," would soon be conquered by Islam.
The fiery sermon, delivered by Yunis al-Astal and aired on Hamas' Al-Aqsa TV, predicted that Rome would become "an advanced post for the Islamic conquests, which will spread though Europe in its entirety, and then will turn to the two Americas, even Eastern Europe."
"Allah has chosen you for Himself and for His religion," al-Astal preached, "so that you will serve as the engine pulling this nation to the phase of succession, security and consolidation of power, and even to conquests through da'wa and military conquests of the capitals of the entire world.
"Very soon, Allah willing, Rome will be conquered, just like Constantinople was, as was prophesized by our prophet Muhammad," he added.
Al-Astal last June preached how it was the duty of Palestinian women to martyr themselves by becoming homicide bombers.
"The most exalted form of jihad is fighting for the sake of Allah, which means sacrificing one's soul by fighting the enemies head-on, even if it leads to martyrdom," he said in a June 23, 2007 interview.
"When jihad becomes an individual duty, it applies to women too, because women do not differ from men when it comes to individual duties," he said, calling Jews "the brothers of apes and pigs" who should "taste the bitterness of death."
Friday's rant repeated that theme:
"Today, Rome is the capital of the Catholics, or the Crusader capital, which has declared its hostility to Islam, and has planted the brothers of apes and pigs in Palestine in order to prevent the reawakening of Islam.
"I believe that our children, or our grandchildren, will inherit our jihad and our sacrifices, and, Allah willing, the commanders of the conquest will come from among them.
"Today, we instill these good tidings in their souls – and by means of the mosques and the Koran books, and the history of our Prophets, his companions, and the great leaders, we prepare them for the mission of saving humanity from the hellfire at whose brink they stand."
Wild Thing's comment........
Did Carter wear a burkha when he met with them?
"Very soon, Allah willing, Rome will be conquered, just like Constantinople was, as was prophesized by our prophet Muhammad," he added.
Yunis al-Astal is simply citing one of Muhammad's prophecies of the Signs of Qiyamah (Sings of the Last Days) from the Hadith, which every faithful Muslim believes.
Nafi' ibn 'Utbah said, "The Prophet said, 'You will attack Arabia, and Allah will enable you to conquer it. Then you will attack Persia, and Allah will enable you to conquer it. Then you will attack Rome, and Allah will enable you to conquer it. Then you will attack the Dajjal, and Allah will enable you to conquer him.' " (Sahih Muslim, Book 41, Number 6930)
He is just saying these are the End Times, therefore their jihad is guaranteed success in conquering the world and killing or converting every infidel.
In a Friday sermon that aired on Hamas’ Al-Aqsa TV on April 11, 2008, Yunis Al-Astal, Hamas MP and cleric, told worshipers that Rome, “the capital of the Catholics, or the Crusader capital,” would soon be conquered by Islam, just as Constantinople was. It then, he said, would become “an advanced post for the Islamic conquests, which will spread through Europe in its entirety, and then will turn to the two Americas, and even Eastern Europe.”

Well, I do worry sometimes. Europe is so flaky anymore--muslims don't attack from the outside, they come from the inside--like they're trying here. Get them through their minds.
People act like they don't care anymore what happens to their countries--they have no pride anymore.
The French are the best wine makers, The Swiss for watches and clocks, The Germans for beer and engineering, The Italians for food, etc. They have forgotten their own heritages and foresaken it. That's why it will be so easy for them to take Rome.

Europe is going to have to awaken soon. It is still a formidable foe for islam. But, like Lynn says, "they ome from the inside". Europe has and is allowing mass immigration from the muslim world. Most of those unassimilated muslims will turn to warriors when the word comes down. This time the Crusades will be at home.
We are doing the same thing in America, allowing a steady inflow of muslims. They claim that Europe does not allow the muslims to assimilate into European society. We allow that in America but it is the muslims who do not want to asimilate. The big advantage of America over Europe is that our citizens are more spirited toward nationalism and independence and we are armed.
I hope all the readers of Wild Thing are gun owners. You don't have to be a gun nut to own a firearm. All you have to be is a lover of freedom and a defender of the Constitution.

Lynn, I worry too and this Islam agenda and killing is all over the world. When we see countries give in to them like even ours does on some things, it is extremely scary to me.
The future of our country and the rest of the world too is at stake if people don't wake up to what is happening.

Darth, Crusade 2008 yes.

Tom I hope so too. If people wait till the last minute it might be too late.
It shocks me how people do not want to know about what is happening and the truth about Islam.

A fine example of those peaceful Muslims...another sand flea in a bed sheet calling for death and destruction. Guess it's useless to remind him that the Pope is in Vatican City, not Rome. If the Pope made a statement saying the Holy Land should be returned to the ews and Christians, you'd see a bazillion Islamic rage-boys flooding the streets AND every news network on the planet would have it's pundits shaking their heads saying what a bad boy the Pope is for stirring up all this trouble. Aw, the hell with it, let's just nuke Mecca and be done with it.

Just imagine what would happen if all Muslim lands were carpet bombed with tons and tons of "Don't worry, we rock at playing Cowboys and Muslims!" posters.
Wild Thing Akbar! Wild Thing is Great!
