How? Doesn't take much to figure it out. First, we could start by remembering what he know about him:
a) he is the greatest liar of all
b) he will be a tyrant
c) he will claim to be the Messiah
d) he will blasphem
etc.
If he is going to be all that, then how is he going to convince so many monotheists around the globe to simply accept him?
I personally believe he won't have to. Why?
The Holy Bible gives us a clear clue. The political, economic and religious systems will be united. In order to do this, I believe, the political system must be established all over the globe. This system must be attractive to the masses by adressing what the humankind has always asked for: a) appearance of peace around the globe, b) equality among the races, ethnicity, respect/tolarance of religions, etc. Does not sound bad, does it? We all want this and have wanted this for ages. Well, assuming that the liar will probably want the public support, he will temporarily give us that.
But, is this kind of polital regime suddenly spread throughout the globe? Probably not. There are helpers along the way:
a) dictors such as: Hitler, Stalin, Sadaam, and many other evil doers who have killed thousands of people, who have opressed people for so many years causing them hearthache, loss of freedom, and great losses in their lives. Suprisingly, many of these dictoras have shown to be not religious, at least not religious in the sense to the religions they declare themselves to follow. Hitler for instance believed described in many instances that he felt 'overpowered' by something before his speeches, and certainly did not exercise the love Christianity is trying to teach. Stalin was an atheist. Sadaam it is said believes that he is the reincarnated king Nabuchadnezzar. Certainly, incarnation is not a belief of Islam.
b) preachers/priests: these could be rapist priests or the hateful imams. While there are certainly priests/imams who are doing what they are supposed to do--preach faith in God and help people learn how to save themselves, others are helping the evil cause by their actions. How many young lives rapist priests have destroyed? How many young men have been deluded that killing everything non-Muslim is ok, even though Islam states that one must not kill other human being unless in self-defense (self-defense: protecting one's being physically as well as spiritually)?
Suprisingly, many of the dictators have been supported by certain powerful regimes in their times. In Hitler's time he had support of many European groups within the Europe as well as the Catholic Church at the time. Stalin certainly may have support of communist regimes who wanted to supress any kind of religious systems, so killing of Muslims and Jews in the old Russia was not a threat to his regime. Sadaam certainly was supported by the U.S. at some point when he fought war against Iran. Now we discover that some in the UN illegally traded stuff with him, helping him stay rich and in power for a while.
