Remember the blind Bulgarian mystic who predicted the rise of ISIS and 9/11?
Well, Baba Vanga has a pretty grim prediction for 2016, so you better cancel your ‘new year new me’ plans.
The prophetess died in 1996 aged 85. She’s alleged to have made hundreds of predictions over the years, with her reputed 85 per cent success rate earning her the title of the ‘Nostradamus from the Balkans’.
These predictions include climate change and the melting of the polar ice caps, which she allegedly foresaw back in the 1950s, saying: “cold regions will become warm … and volcanoes will awaken.”
Vanga’s followers also say she predicted the 2004 Boxing Day tsunami, warning a ‘huge wave’ would descend on a “big coast, covering people and towns and [causing] everything to disappear under the water.”
Back in 1989 she warned that the ‘American brethren’ will be attacked by ‘two steel birds’, a possible reference to the Twin Tower attacks in 2001.
Vanga allegedly called the election of Barack Obama as well, predicting the 44th president of the United States would be an African American – also making the chilling claim he would be the ‘last U.S. president’, which, well, you know…
She also warned that a group of Muslim extremists would invade Europe by 2016, foreseeing a ‘great Muslim war’ that would be kick-started by the Arab Spring in 2010 and play out in Syria, eventually resulting in the establishment of a caliphate by 2043 with Rome at the centre.
According to The Mirror she claimed this ‘2016 invasion by Muslim extremists’ across Europe would mean the continent would ‘cease to exist’ by the end of the year. She specifically said: “[Extremists] would use chemical warfare against Europeans.”
A terrible prediction to start the new year with!
