Far-Right Religious Advisors See Iran as End Times Holy War
The Trump administration has increasingly embraced a biblical rhetoric, with advisors framing policies and global conflicts, particularly in the Middle East, as divinely sanctioned and precursors to the end times. This theological viewpoint, which interprets suffering as necessary for the return of Christ, is influencing military actions, evidenced by the infusion of Christian symbolism and practice into the armed forces. This fusion of political power and religious certainty is raising concerns about the potential for intensified conflicts and a blurring of lines between national defense and religious agenda.
