While I know that the Moshiach will come very soon, I fear that we, righteous Jews, have failed. Rav Kahane mentioned the number 40 in terms of punishment and it is now 40 years from 1967. As such I am afraid that Moshiach will come "in it's time" and as a result there will be much suffering before his arrival. I hope that I am wrong, but I am afraid that I am indeed right.

Those "Christians" would be happy to burn their own crosses and churches JUST to help build more mosques. And then there are the pagas, don't get me started on them! How lame can someone get when they start to worship Odin!

we have a looooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooong way till we get to Moshiach..hate to break it to you.
Moshiach is ready to come now, but are we ready? NO. Just look at the secular Israeli government that is NOT worthy of Moshaich's arrival. And at Jews who take their Jewishness for granted all over the world.Moshiach will NOT be a sudden heavenly revelation, BUT the culmination of man's work to perfect the world. He can come tomorrow but its up to us.
Where you get the "200 before", I thought the Rabbis opinion in the Talmud was 6000. Anyways, that isn't the maximum, but what the Rabbis think the maximum is, although I hope they are right and it comes by then.
Well I don't accept his opinion since the Talmud says otherwise.
Moshiach ben Yosef will arrive to the North. In the beginning, he will not know that he was chosen to be the first savior. He will operate thru his qualifications and thru his love for Am Israel that is embedded in him. He is very pious and has helpers with him. Thru his holy bravery and courage, people of the North as well as others will slowly awaken and want to attach themselves to him and join him. There will be those that will oppose him, including religious Jews that follow the Torah and its commandments. He will rule from the Galil, his headquarters will be in Tzfat or Teveria. Some Talmidei Chachamim will begin to recognize him as the savior of Bnei Israel and will join him. Others will only join him much later. * He'll announce an emergency regime.* He will announce an emergency economic and secure regime because Israel will be bankrupt due to bankruptcy in America.* He will call upon the Arab states to stop striking the Jews and to recognize the sovereignty of Israel in all Yesha territory.* He will make major changes in the army.* Major portion of the high-ranking officers of the IDF army will transfer their loyalty to him.* In respond to kassam and rockets on Northern Israel, he will give instructions to completely exterminate a city in Syria.* Egypt and Jordan will declare a war against him.* He will lead the new IDF and capture Jordan and half of Sinai.* He will forcibly capture Yerushalayim. He will announce that the government operating in Yerushalayim are criminals and will demand to judge them according to the laws of the Jewish Court. He'll put some politicians in prison, while other politicians will try to run away. There will also be also politicans who will form a coalition to fight him, but he'll kill them. * He will scatter media journalists and instead, place his own people.* He will give (S'micha) Rabbinical authority to G'dol HaTorah to establish Chachmei Torah councilmen.* He will cancel all authority and power of the Israel judicial system. Meanwhile, in America...* The Unites States will be severly struck because of their pride.* The dollar will lose its value and the inflation will severely escalate.* America will become bunkrupt.* The severe strikes on the U.S. will come thru wars and even more, thru powerful weather disasters.* The quick escalation of Moshiach ben Yosef will contribute to antisemitism.* Antisemitism will rise to unimaginable heights.* Jews of the United States will be forced to flee like fugitives, because those who survived the weather disasters will not be able to survive the tremendeous waves of hatred against them.* The survivors will arrive in Israel with only the cloths on their back and Moshiach ben Yosef will reach out to help them.Throughout the process, there will be many remarkable revealed miracles. Please listen my friend, many are waiting for Moshiach to reveal himself and very soon, he will have the leadership.What "Yehudit" says is very similar to what the holy sefarim (books) say, posted at Moshiach ben Yosef.http://dreamingofmoshiach.blogspot.com/2007_09_01_archive.html

Yiddishkeit was in such a dismal state, Hashem was forced to take us out!Well being taken out of Egypt is not the same as Moshiach coming now. I just follow the teachings of the Rebbe.He said that Moshiach's arrival is the responsibility of every Jew. We see Jews who don't care, who don't keep kosher or keep Shabbat etc. And the Israeli government is just dreadfully secular and anti-TorahI guess others feel that he will come when it gets really bad but the situation will be different. That's one view of it.My view is the same as the Rebbe's. He also emphasized in Jews doing acts of goodness and kindness in order to speed the coming of Moshiach. Like him, I feel that Moshiach will come through our hard work. I understand if you disagree, my views may just be different. The links I have to those videos explain what the Rebbe said and what I believe about this matter.

Actually both of you could be right and both scenarios are possible, allthough many have said that the time is up (for the first option- without Messianic birthpangs), but still both options are possible, and Rav Kahane writes a lot about it being as such).
