Just for the record, the first paragraph (ending with "great new city...") is the only one genuinely by Nostradamus -- in fact, probably a compilation from various Prophesies. All the rest is a hoax. Nostradamus (if you're interested at all) has written a number of Prophesies about a Great War between Christians and Muslims, but nothing of the kind that seems to have taken over the internet in the last couple of days. We are intelligent people here, let's not fall victims to popular hearsay (although I know from first hand it can be quite tempting at times...).
