Hugo Chavez: Jesus Will Return With The 12th Imam/Mahdi

The late Hugo Chavez dreaming and chatting about the speedy return of Jesus and the 12th Imam, with some buddies.

 I re-translated the video because the subtitles are, in some cases, incorrect.

The video starts mid-speech, I assume he is referring to Jerusalem.

" ....sacred land for us true Christians. Sacred land.   [Unintelligible, there might have been an edit] Ahmadinejad... we were recalling here.. that one day- the Quran says-  they will return. Christ holding hands with the 12th Imam- Mahdi- They will come together- Mahdi. And on that day there will be peace in the world. Now we must ask them...the Mahdi and Christ to hurry up.. that they come quickly.. that they hurry.. that they come quickly. How many dangers, my God, there are in this world. In this new world that is being born, that pushes, that is being born. In the end, I think that all of the fights.. of all times.. of all places.. are concentrated in the Gaza Strip.. today. And in Jordan [I think that's what he said].. today.  There are concentrated all the fights.. of all places..of all centuries. We fight for Palestine. [because] It's fighting for Venezuela, it's fighting for Latin America, it's fighting for ourselves."

If Iran's Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's prediction is correct, Chavez will be joining hands with Jesus and the Mahdi when they return to earth.

Chavez Will Resurrect With Jesus and the Mahdi Claims Ahmadinejad

You have to love Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and his wacky notions. If nothing else, they're good for a hearty laugh.

So, get this, the Iranian president- who is mourning the passing of his best buddy Hugo Chavez- has elevated the Venezuelan leftist loon to a position of messiah-ship. Yes, Mahmoud actually believes Chavecito is returning to earth in a second-coming, along with Mahmoud's Hidden Imam and Jesus Christ.

"I have no doubt that he [Chavez] will return alongside Jesus Christ and the Mahdi [the Hidden Imam] to establish peace and justice in the world," Ahmadinejad wrote in an emotional condolence message posted on his personal website. The Mahdi is a revered figure among Shi'ite Muslims, many of whom believe he will return to save humanity.

Chavez will now have his very own 'national day of mourning' in Iran, and Ahmadinejad is even thinking of heading on over to Venezuela to bid his BFF adieu.

He also concurs with Chavez's equally delusional Vice President Nicolas Maduro that the dead Venezuelan president was given cancer by the U.S.

Ahmadinejad also wrote in his website eulogy:

"Hugo Chavez is a name known to all nations. His name is a reminder of cleanliness and kindness, bravery...dedication, and tireless efforts to serve the people, especially the poor and those scarred by colonialism and imperialism."
