Quote:Note that, as indicated in 2 posts up, the prophecy is independent from the map: the prophecy is from a European source (some Baba Vanga), while the map was released by ISIS itself. The two have nothing to do with each other and were merely mentioned in one and the same news report in one source (not the others).
The map is what is of importance to Hindoos and other nationalists. The prophecy is irrelevant and the only reason for mentioning it was to wonder at the strange obsession with dubious supernaturalism/superstition among so-called rational modern Europe.
Husky,
My apologies for the unclear post. I was implying that: If a prophecy and its actualization are mentioned in the same source, then there is a possibility that the two are linked in a fundamental way; that is, that one is a fulfillment of the other and that the prophecy is fact a geopolitical plan couched as the quaint or the fascinating. Indians/Hindus should not underestimate the level of planning that is undertaken by the western powers or their level of deception. Oftentimes, they will out the plan in an incredulous (ie, deniable) fashion (as prophecy/conspiracy/sci-fi) either to gauge public reception or simply out of hubris (as a signature or statement). Regarding ISIS, I am not saying anything out of the ordinary; the "color revolutions" sprinkled throughout the mideast were planned and fulfilled by western powers in minute detail -- Engdahl has described the recent color revolutions as an instance of western agenda (although the western agenda is probably multi-faceted far beyond the geopolitical goals he describes - an embarrassing artifact in an Iraqi museum could have been the "real" reason, or a perceived slight from three centuries ago forgotten by all - the revenge message now perceptible to only a few). Just basing this upon other contemporaneous parallels.
