               na in which only the strong survive. Armageddon is currently the
               most savage of these forces' plans. People who are unaware of this
               stratagem may well have a totally mistaken idea of Islam, a religion of
               peace and love.


                       The Negative View of Islam Is a
                        deliberately Planned Scenario


                   With this bloody scenario of the End Times they have developed,
               some circles affiliated with the antichrist that have led to an expecta-
               tion of a great war by pointing to various passages from the Gospel as
               supposed evidence are, in fact, trying to establish a false impression of
               Islam. Through various publications that support scenarios of war,
               false reports, biased commentaries and provocative statements they
               are attempting to portray sincere Muslims as the supporters of the an-
               tichrist. That is the underlying reason for the hate-filled attitude to-
               ward Islam and biased perspectives on the part of some evangelical
               Christians. These people depict themselves as religious and claim to be

               basing their ideas about the End Times on the Gospel, and are seeking,
               in their own eyes, to attribute provisions favoring war and cruelty to
               Islam, a faith that actually describes a world in which all people will
               live in peace and security. The aim of these forces is to camouflage the
               people who are encouraging war and policies intended to lead to a
               major war in the Middle East by focusing people's attention toward
               Muslims instead. It is to prevent unity between the People of the Book
               and Muslims, which if it were to happen, would represent a huge force
               against atheism, irreligion and materialism.
                   As a result of this ugly trickery, some sincerely devout Christians
               are falsely acquainted with Islam, misinterpret it and are unaware of
               the beauty of Islam and the fact it is a religion of peace and love. This
               stratagem is also leading to an artificial separation between Muslims
