The three nations of England, the U.S. and Israel comprise of what I have termed “the family satan.” I certainly don’t believe any of those nations are actually satanic, but over the course of the past few years in particular Iran has ramped up the rhetoric citing all three are in the same satanic family. The United States is the “great satan,” whereas I would assume England is the “mother of satan” and Israel is the “incestual offspring of satan.”
It is this reasoning that I believe Iran won’t immediately strike Israel but rather they would strike the United States if the nation acquires a nuclear weapon. Iran knows any attack on Israel would be met with swift retribution by the United States. It must therefore end the “great satan” from protecting the “incestual offspring of satan” before it can once and for all pave the way for the 12th Imam to return the Islamic glory to the world.
In the religious battle of good versus evil the imagery of Satan is strong, and so too in Shia Islam is the imagery of the 12th Imam returning to the Earth to help build an Islamic state. To those unfamiliar with the comcpet of the 12th Imam, think any other religious end of days scenario that involved a prophet, the son of God or any other religious entity reappearing to punish those who do not believe and reward those who do.
To some of us, this type of scenario is nothing more than a story passed down through time and warped through the many translations and interpretations all religious texts have been through. To others, the religion we worship is right and the end of days scenario written in our religious texts is accurate.
