Is it a good time to talk about Christian Zionism yet? Because I feel like I’m not seeing enough about Christian Zionism’s influence on every Middle East decision made by the the US. Luckily @swordsjew.bsky.social has done just that. Feels like an especially important read in this moment.
The American evangelical right is absolutely shitting themselves with excitement over this. There is nothing on planet earth that they want more then a destabilized Middle East at war to trigger the rapture. This is 100% fact even though it sounds ridiculous.
MAGA voted for the Book of Revelations, and we’re getting it.

Trump bombing Iran was illegal and unjustified.
I ran for Congress to make sure our leaders consider the true costs of war.
And I will be in the Senate, standing on my titanium legs, demanding answers from Trump.

Every time they say “we can’t afford that,” remember: they could afford armored tanks, a dictators birthday parade, and enough tear gas to choke a city. They just don’t want you fed, safe, or alive.

It’s not that they don’t know what the constitution says. They know what it says. Just like they knew what it said when they asked Pence to ignore it.
They just don’t care.
They believe it can be rewritten by bending it to their will, if enough of them decide to do it.
