Troops Told Iran War Is For Armageddon Return Of Jesus
Following US and Israeli attacks on Iran, the Military Religious Freedom Foundation (MRFF) has received over 110 complaints from service members across all military branches. These complaints cite commanders allegedly pushing religious interpretations of the conflict, including claims that the war is part of God’s plan and a precursor to Armageddon. One non-commissioned officer reported their commander stating President Trump was “anointed by Jesus to light the signal fire in Iran.” The MRFF asserts these statements violate military regulations and oaths to the Constitution, potentially harming morale and unit cohesion.
