According to ancient Islamic tradition, the Mahdi will arise after the two eclipses occur in Ramadan, and after a great earthquake will shake the land so much that it will almost be swallowed up.
On 10.08.2005, a 7.6 Earthquake strikes Pakistan, one of the largest Islamic countries, killing many tens of thousands, but they could be waiting for something like Yellowstone eruption or Ocean Park earthquake that some sensed it was to occur at this time

that is, according to Dimitru Duduman's son, Michael Boldea Jr.

and according to bible code expected to occour in 2009.

A significant portion of Islam is expecting the "Mahdi" to arise within two years from the Ramadan 2005 eclipses of the sun and the moon.

During this two year period, the coming Mahdi is expected to communicate with leaders, but to be hidden away from public view, and then, he will announce himself to the world.
President Ahmadinejad of Iran sees himself as a forerunner of the Mahdi. He has even said that he has secretly met with the Mahdi. Sources in Iran say that he has written and signed a pact with the hidden Mahdi and has asked all of his officials to do so.

Last week U.S. gave a go to President Bush for attack,

so the 3rd Infantry Division's 3rd Combat Aviation Brigade based at Fort Stewart, Georgia, will deploy in early May, 45 days ahead of schedule, instead of mid June,

and Ahmadinejad got U.S. visa so he could attend U.N. Security Council session on Iran's nuclear program.

All this makes secretary of the Russian Security Council Ivanov say today (there is Sunday also) that "Iran and the international community must take a pause and find a solution through negotiations and come to a common conclusion," and "If the Iranian leadership states that it has no military plans and its plans are only civilian, then Iran should not have any concerns,"

Last month John Hogue wrote his Predictions Fro 2007
http://www.hogueprophecy.com/prophecy/2007predictions.htm
where he states that "Bush...He will go to war in 2007 with Iran unless Congress as a bi-partisan body can stop it. Look to March 2007 as the earliest potential window for war. Bush's attack on Iran will create the American version of a military blunder comparable to Hitler's invasion of the Soviet Union during the Second World War. He thinks a brief and devastating air and sea attack will punish Iran into submission and overthrow its Ayatollahs. The air strike will only widen the reach of a religious civil war in Iraq like a plague across the Middle East and South Central Asia, down into the horn of Africa, before the first half of 2007 is over, or by the end of September 2007 at the latest...
...Men and women of reason in Congress, be they Democrat, Republican or Independents, must dissuade this president and his cult cabinet of apocalyptists from lighting off this war--this last gasp of Piscean religious negativity at the dawn of the Aquarian Age.
They will have to be strong. They will have to evoke hard love. Willingly and methodically stripped of their powers over the last six years, the Congress are armed with all but a fig leaf of remaining congressional power against this dictatorial King George of a US president. They have the power to withhold money to finance his current and future military disasters. Before this happens, Speaker of the House Pelosi will have to eat her words. Further presidential blunders and disasters will force her to risk rescinding the funding of soldiers in Battlefield Iraq and later compel her to convene proceedings for the impeachment of President G. W. Bush...."
At this time Pelosi already blew the troop funding cut part.
About further developments Hogue started to speak more than year ago
