Rogue prophecy scholar John Hogue discussed his new e-book Nostradamus: The War with Iran. He suggested that fundamentalist extremism underlies the thoughts and actions of leaders in Iran, Israel and the US, and they are being swept up in a kind of "messianic fever." A war with Iran could take place as early as this summer, he predicted.

Hogue argued that in the Six Day War (which recently had its 40th anniversary) the Israelis were right to stage a preemptive attack against their adversaries, but he does not see a similar situation with Iran, calling Iran's threats "hot holy air."

He reviewed some of Nostradamus' prophecies, including one that referenced a 3-13 year war between two Northern "eagle" powers-- which he interpreted as Russia and the United States. Hogue also spoke about climate change causing ocean levels to rise in as few as eight years, inundating port cities and disrupting food shipments.
