‘Absolute Armageddon’: What Happens if Hamas, Taliban, Hezbollah and ISIS Join Forces?
A Christian leader who was born and raised in Iran and who now ministers in the country is warning of what could happen if ties between terror groups like Hamas, Taliban, Hezbollah, and ISIS strengthen. The Rev. Lazarus Yeghnazar, founder and president of Transform Iran, an organization that spreads the Gospel in Iran, said such collaborations are already unfolding — something he sounded the alarm on in a recent video responding to Hamas’ Oct. 7 attack on Israel.
“What happens if Hamas, Taliban, Hezbollah and ISIS join forces? What will it force the Western countries, and the democracies and Israel to do?” Yeghnazar asked. “A conflict, which is catastrophic, will engulf the whole region.” He also warned the murderous chaos will eventually come for everyone, not only Israel. “This is … a plague that is not only destined to obliterate Israel [but one] that will not stop until they subjugate all of us,” Yeghnazar said.
The faith leader also made it clear Iran is responsible for creating much of the death and consternation we’re seeing right now in the region, explaining the deep roots of the conflict. “Iran has, for the last 43 years, fermented bitterness,” he told CBN Digital. “I think you’re … a hairline crack away from the whole region burning in an inferno.” Yeghnazar recounted how his former nation was once filled with possibility before descending into a chaotic, militant state that brutally cracks down on its people.
“If you wanted to practice your Islam, you could go to a mosque,” he said. “If you wanted to practice your Christianity, go to a church.” But all that changed during the Iranian Revolution in the late 1970s when Ayatollah Khomeini came to power and brought what Yeghnazar called an “Islamic mandate” to Iran, subjugating those not in line with his ideology.
Flash forward a few decades and Iran is at the center of consternation, with the Islamic republic funding and equipping groups like Hezbollah and Hamas, with the latter group responsible for the Oct. 7 terror attack that killed 1,400 Israelis. Watch Yeghnazar explain the chaos and call Christians to prayer.
