Man claiming to be Muslim messiah shot by Hamas

A man claiming to be the Mahdi, the promised redeemer of Islam, approached a leading imam in Gaza on Tuesday and insisted that local Muslims begin obeying his instructions.

The Bethlehem-based Ma'an News Agency reported that the enraged imam immediately called for the assistance of Hamas security forces, who demanded that the man recant his claim.

When the self-proclaimed Mahdi refused, the Hamas gunmen shot the man's feet and then released him.

Oh. They only wounded him. Bummer.

I can just imagine the Hamas cops doing the Indy Jones “why do I always get the idiots?” take just before they drew and shot him.

Well Ahmadinejad said he was going to show up around this time to go out and slay the infidel. Gaza seems as good a place to start as any.

So what were his instructions?! Enquiring minds want to know!

Guns don’t kill the Muslim Mahdi, Hamas kills the Muslim Mahdi.

How does the imam know he isn’t right? Maybe they’re chasing off the guy they’re claiming to be looking for.

That’s okay, there’s a mahdi about every 20 years. Generally ends badly. Might as well not live with the suspense.

There’s a theory in my church about the Mahdi and the Antichrist being one and the same, since I alerted the pastor to a book Joel Richardson wrote on the subject. But I think the real Antichrist is supposed to be wounded in the head, not in the foot.

"There are ways of telling if he is the Mahdi."

You'd think he'd smell pretty bad and look kind of nasty after crawling out of a well he'd been holed up in a couple of thousand years.
