“Mahmoud believes he can bring the Mahdi to manifest if he causes nuclear war and the destruction of Israel.”
It almost sounds like you believe it yourself.
Does it count if the nuclear war only causes the destruction of Iran? Or should we just let them develop a workable nuclear weapon so they can use it when and where they choose?
I really think “go ahead and nuke us” is a little farther down the path than “please don’t throw me in the briar patch!”
I believe he believes it. When someone says they want to kill you, believe them. That’s the lesson of the Holocaust.
I don’t understand the rest of what you’re saying.
