The Tennessean newspaper in Nashville is investigating how it came to print a full-page advertisement Sunday by a fringe biblical prophecy group that claimed ‘Islam’ is set to detonate a nuclear bomb in the city.
The ad, which featured pictures of Donald Trump, Pope Francis, and burning US flags, was credited to the Ministry of Future of America – a group that claims its mission is to ‘proclaim the final warning message’ from the Bible.
Titled ‘Dear Citizen of Nashville’, the lengthy ‘prophecy’ features several paragraphs of anti-Muslim rhetoric claiming that the Bible predicts Islam’s role is to bring ‘all men on planet earth together to combat them.’
It also stated that Trump would be the ‘last president of the US’, warned there would be ‘another civil war’, and said that ‘Islam is going to detonate a nuclear device’ in Nashville on July 18.
The bizarre prolix also made mention of Russian President Vladimir Putin, the Democratic Party and the 2001 September 11 attacks on the World Trade Center buildings.
