Beck doc to launch Wed, Jan 26

On Wednesday morning at 11:30am eastern, I will be a guest on Glenn Beck’s radio show to discuss an original documentary film, Rumors of War, that Glenn will launch on Wednesday night.

The one-hour film, whose trailer is now posted on Beck’s website, examines the Iran nuclear threat to the United States, Israel and the world, and the Shia Islamic eschatology held by the Ayatollah Khamenei and President Ahmadinejad that is currently driving Iranian foreign policy. I was interviewed for the project last year as I was writing The Twelfth Imam. While I’ve only seen a few clips of the project so far, I’m looking forward to it. After all, what other national figure is putting a spotlight on the End Times views of Iran’s leaders?

“For over a year, the filmmakers have been researching and shooting this documentary,” notes the producers. “They have performed extensive interviews with former high ranking government and military officials who have been a part of top secret strategy sessions regarding the growing threat of a nuclear Iran. Rumors of War will examine the current leadership of Iran…who are part of a radical Muslim sect that believe it is their duty to hasten the return of the Twelfth Imam,  a Jesus-like figure who will wipe the planet clean of Iran’s enemies, of which Israel and the United States rank 1 and 1a.  They believe, and have stated publically that by initiating worldwide chaos they can bring about his return.”

The film will run at 8pm exclusively on Beck’s website. “The documentary will be available exclusively to Insider Extreme members….If you’re not a member, sign up here.”
