Deadly terrorist attacks -- like the one in Paris last month and the one in California yesterday -- are indications that a third world war has begun, the Vicar of Baghdad asserted today (December 3, 2015), according to the Christian Post website.
Canon Andrew White -- the only Anglican Vicar in Iraq when the Islamic State (IS) terrorist organization rose to power in Iraq and Syria -- spoke at a lunch discussion hosted by the Washington-based Institute on Religion & Democracy, and explained that Muslims, Christians, and Jews need to work together to support the persecuted refugee communities in the Middle East and combat extremist ideologies that are causing society to "fall apart."
In the wake of Islamic State's attacks in Paris that killed 130 civilians and injured over 350 others in November, terror struck in the United States yesterday when two gunmen -- one of whom was believed to have been in contact with domestic and international Islamic extremists -- shot up a social services building in San Bernardino, California, and killed 14 people and injured 21 others.
While most people in the West have had the luxury of hearing about heinous acts of terrorism by IS and other extremists in the Middle East from afar, White argues that terror is now striking in the heart of Western nations with some regularity, and the world has entered a third world war.
