MahdiWatch
Welcome to MahdiWatch.org!
al-Mahdi is "the rightly-guided one" who, according to Islamic Hadiths (traditions), will come before the end of time to make the entire world Muslim.
Over the last 1400 years numerous claimants to the mantle of the Mahdi have arisen, and belief in the coming of the Mahdi is increasing today, as evidenced by the such overt examples as January 2007's Mahdist violence in Iraq and the frequently-expressed public pronouncements of Iran's leader Ahmadinezhad, as well as more covert examples such as the whispered claims that Usamah bin Ladin might be the Mahdi.
This site will track such Mahdi-related claims, aspirations, propaganda and beliefs in the both the Sunni and Shi`i parts of the Islamic world, as well as other eschatological yearnings in a Muslim context.

Time for some carefully-targeted assassinations, methinks....
"..Usamah bin Ladin might be the Mahdi.."
Well he's off to a flying start isn't he, crapping in a cave, watching his back, fearing UAVs flying around over head looking to let go of their arsenals.
Bin man was close to being killed by his own bodyguards. To avoid capture by allied troops.
