During his speech to the United Nations this morning, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad spoke about the “arrival of the ultimate savior Jesus Christ and The Righteous,” which will bless the world with a “Spring” that has already begun.

“Now we can see and sense the sweet scent and the soulful breeze of the spring, the spring that has just begun and doesn’t belong to a specific race, ethnicity, nation, or religion,” he explained adding that it would sweep “Asia, Europe, Africa and America.”

As a Shiite Muslim, Ahmadinejad believes that Islam’s twelfth imam, Muhammad al-Mahdi, will return to earth accompanied by Jesus, to save mankind.

“He will be the spring of all,” added Ahmadinejad. “The justice seekers, freedom lovers and the followers of heavenly prophets.”

“Let us join hands and clear the way for his eventual arrival, with empathy and cooperation, in harmony and unity. Let us march on this path to salvation for the dirty souls of humanity to taste immortal joy and grace,” Ahmadinejad continued.

“Long live this spring! Long live this spring! And again and again long live this spring.” he concluded.
