The latest news – and it’s not good – is that the United States will be decimated in 2007, completely gone. As if we don’t have enough troubles, now we have to pack up and get out. The Jerusalem Post reports that Palestinian scholar Ziad Silwadi’s research shows the Koran unquestionably predicts the US will be hit by a tsunami larger than the recent one in southeast Asia, and it will come at us from both coasts.

“The tsunami waves are a minor rehearsal in comparison with what awaits the US in 2007,” the researcher concluded in his study. “The Holy Koran warns against the Omnipotent Allah’s force. A great sin will cause a huge flood in the Atlantic and Pacific oceans.”

That’s really a shame, because in 2008 the great sin would have been out of office anyway.
