While looking for the exact quote from Nostradamus I came across
this thread from 2004 -
short read, worth sharing.
One thing I can agree with is that Nostradamus is really vague, and it helps if you read him along with "other" prophets. I like Jeanne Dixon
Mostly I like her because she was exact. She said that the false prophet was born August 5, 1961, and the antichrist was born on February 5, 1962 in
the middle east. Barack Obama fits the false prophet birthday (8/4/61 - only 1 day sooner), I haven't found anyone who fits into the Feb 5th one
yet. Rick doesn't work, he's much older.
Now, in the quatrains it mentions "mabus" but it doesn't actually say that Mabus is the antichrist - just that the Mabus will soon die, then
further goes on to discuss the Antichrist. If popular opinion is correct, Mabus died (or was at least announced dead) on May 1, 2011. Thats the
osaMABUSh connection thats dead at least, and the possible
obaMABUSh connection hopefully dies in 2012 when he's out of office.
The
only difference in italics is a little bs.
Anyway, I think the osaMABUSh is a bit of a stretch, but anything is possible.
Until it is made clearer though, I got my eye on
Ray Mabus (Secretary of the US Navy), if he up and
dies soon, I'll really start looking around for the antichrist!
Sadly, Ray is too old to fit Jeanne Dixon's antichrist criteria, but again... the quatrain doesnt actually say Mabus is the antichrist - his death
just precedes it.
Abdullah II of Jordan comes real close though

(born Jan 30, that brings him within 6
days depending on the time zone, I suck at figuring that out)
Century II, Quatrain 62
Mabus then will soon die, there will come
Of people and beasts a horrible rout:
Then suddenly one will see vengeance,
Hundred, hand, thirst, hunger when the comet will run.

Century VIII, Quatrain 77
The antichrist very soon annihilates the three,
twenty-seven years his war will last.
The unbelievers are dead, captive, exiled;
with blood, human bodies, water and red hail covering the earth.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Century VIII Quatrain 55
He will find himself shut in between two rivers,
casks and barrels joined to cross beyond:
eight bridges broken, their chief run through so many times,
perfect children's throats slit by the knife
