The Psychotic Crusade Against Iran

It’s getting stranger and stranger. Officers in the U.S. military are telling their recruits that Jesus anointed Donald Trump so that the president could lead and win the biblical final battle against

In recent weeks, reports have been circulating online suggesting that the U.S. government is driven by an extremely irrational desire to go to war with Iran. Christian fundamentalists are said to have hijacked the Trump administration. Trump is alleged to have launched the war against Iran for religious reasons. Alarming accounts from Trump’s inner circle certainly provide ample grounds for such speculation.
Unfortunately, this is true. But a project as massive as waging a war cannot be successfully carried out on religious arrogance alone. Too many, and in some cases very different, interest groups must pull together. The financial circles with relevant vested interests must agree. Industry must recognize that such an adventure is worthwhile. And above all, broad segments of the population must be inspired to risk life and limb, with an uncertain outcome. The Iran War is not about the U.S. seizing oil reserves. After all, the U.S. itself exports oil in abundance. Rather, it is about cutting off China, the major challenger, from vital raw materials. Yet a simple look at China’s carefully calculated energy mix makes it clear that China can very well continue without Venezuelan or Iranian oil.

Certainly, the aim is to further expand U.S. and Israeli dominance in the Middle East by eliminating Iran, the last major rival in the region. But at the same time, discontent is growing on Trump’s home front in the U.S.: the tail is wagging the dog. It is all too obvious that the U.S. is supporting a risky war that primarily serves the interests of the Netanyahu government. Consequently, the US and Israel’s attack on their peaceful neighbor Iran—which violates international law—is not going over well with the American public. Only 27 percent of US citizens surveyed approve of Trump’s attack on Iran <1>. The fact that the U.S. is squandering a staggering $900 million a day on the war against Iran is met with anger and bitterness in light of the ever-growing social problems in the American heartland <2>. Unlike under his predecessors Bush I and Bush II, Americans are not rallying behind their head of state this time.
But that doesn’t faze Donald Trump. Undeterred by Iran’s resolute resistance, he continues to demand their “unconditional surrender.” In doing so, Trump is echoing the demands made by the Allies during World War II against Nazi Germany and Japan. This is completely off the mark. Back then, the Allies meant the unconditional surrender of those politically responsible. Trump, on the other hand, said in an interview:
“Unconditional surrender means: we’ll keep going until they [the Iranians] whine, ‘Mercy, Uncle!’ or until they can’t fight anymore, or until there’s no one left who can whine… until there’s no one left to surrender.” <3>
That is more in line with Adolf Hitler’s position, who made it clear in his rambling treatise *Mein Kampf* that he wanted to completely exterminate the Slavs to make room for “racially pure Aryans.” This is by no means a novelty for the U.S., considering how the Native Americans were initially exterminated to make room for European immigrants. However, such a policy is incompatible with civilized standards. We can clearly understand the Trumpists’ offensive as a declared break with all modern conventions. Trump’s Secretary of War, Pete Hegseth, makes this unmistakably clear in a statement on the war with Iran when he says:

“We’re flying over Iran, we’re flying over Tehran. Flying over the capital. Flying over the Revolutionary Guard bases. Iranian leaders look up and see nothing but Israeli and American air forces. Every minute. Every day. Until we decide: it’s over. And there’s absolutely nothing they can do about it. Our B-2, B-52, and B-1 bombers; Predator drones; fighter jets dominate the skies. Selecting targets. Death and destruction from the sky. All day long. We’re playing for everything. Our fighter pilots have the broadest possible authority, personally guaranteed by the President and me. Our rules of engagement are bold, precise, and designed to unleash American power, not to limit it. It was never intended to be a fair fight. It is not a fair fight. We beat them when they’re down. And that’s exactly how it should be!” <4>

The figure of Pete Hegseth leaves no room for doubt: this is about religious fanaticism. For Hegseth likes to be photographed with his shirt off. And there, the astonished audience sees all sorts of martial tattoos. For example, the motto: “Deus lo vult!” This is medieval Latin and simply means: “God wills it!” Pope Urban II uttered this battle cry in Clermont in 1095. This marked the beginning of the Crusades to the Holy Land with the goal of recapturing Jerusalem from the Muslims. And Pete Hegseth has never made a secret of the fact that he sees himself as part of Crusade 2.0. As is well known, the First Crusade led to the conquest of Jerusalem as early as 1099. The Christian conquerors brutally slaughtered the entire population—Jews and Muslims, men, women, children, and the elderly. The drunken conquerors, as the chroniclers put it, waded back then in a muddy pool of blood. So that is the role model for the current Secretary of War of the United States of America. Hegseth likes to bring in the ultra-conservative pastor Douglas Wilson for ceremonial occasions. He preaches, for example, that women are completely unsuitable for higher office.

Speaking of court preachers: Donald Trump has employed his spiritual advisor Paula White as an official preacher in the White House at taxpayers’ expense. Completely Dadaist speeches by this evangelist are circulating on YouTube, where Ms. White wildly flails her arms and repeatedly shouts “strike, strike, strike!” before breaking into unintelligible glossolalia <5>. The woman has already raked in millions of dollars with her bizarre performances. Currently, several Christian-Zionist pastors have gathered around Trump’s desk in the Oval Office to fan the necessary spiritual strength into Trump for the war against Iran. Paula White has placed her hand on the shoulders of her protégé, Trump. Trump sinks into an uncharacteristic religious humility <6>.

Only a matter of taste?

As we all know, there’s no accounting for taste.
But there’s more to this farce at the White House than meets the eye. An increasing number of soldiers across all branches of the U.S. military are complaining about their superiors. The latter are increasingly drumming into their subordinates that the military campaign against Iran is not an ordinary war, but a religious-spiritual final battle between the heavenly hosts and the hosts of the devil. Former Air Force officer Mickey Weinstein has founded a foundation, namely the Military Religious Freedom Foundation. During his active service in the Air Force, Weinstein, as a Jew, experienced firsthand how Jews and Muslims were teased and bullied by Christian comrades. For instance, Weinstein was asked in the mess hall how he could live with having killed Jesus Christ? <7>.

Through his foundation, Weinstein is now advocating for tolerance and mutual respect among soldiers of all religions and worldviews. Weinstein’s foundation serves as a point of contact for soldiers who have been discriminated against or harassed. For instance, he has already received over 200 letters of complaint regarding the current war in Iran. In one case, the commander „urged us to tell our troops that this was ‘all part of God’s divine plan’ and he specifically referenced numerous citations out of the Book of Revelation referring to Armageddon and the imminent return of Jesus Christ”. The superior added “that ‘President Trump has been anointed by Jesus to light the signal fire in Iran to cause Armageddon and mark his return to Earth’“ And Weinstein reported: “Anytime Israel or the US is involved in the Middle East, we get this stuff about Christian nationalists who’ve taken over our government, and certainly our US military.” <8>

John Hagee and the CUFI

Behind these end-times commanders stands a little-known but very powerful community: the Christian Zionists. Christianity and Zionism are, in fact, mutually exclusive. For centuries, Christians have waged campaigns against Jews that were as brutal as they were sadistic. Pogroms and burnings then reached their gruesome culmination in the indescribable horrors of the Holocaust, which the Catholic Hitler knew how to instigate. In the U.S., too, riots against Jews were commonplace. Then came the civil rights movement of the 1960s, led jointly by Blacks and Jews. In the meantime, the tide has turned completely.

For evangelical preachers have discovered their love for the Netanyahu regime. Take, for example, the televangelist John Hagee. The man with the massive skull has amassed a fortune in the millions through televised sermons. With incredible skill and cunning calculation, he wraps his audience around his finger with masterful rhetoric. Hagee promotes the Israeli government through his organization Christians United for Israel (CUFI). According to its own claims, this organization has ten million members and vast financial resources. Much like the pro-Israel lobbying group American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC), CUFI exerts massive influence on public opinion and politicians. To fall out with Hagee and his CUFI means burying one’s political career. It is therefore no wonder that of the 535 members of Congress in Washington, 110 alone belong to the evangelical camp <9>. The International Christian Embassy Jerusalem (ICEJ) is also part of this network.
The central mission of this entire Christian-Zionist network is to support the Netanyahu government in its quest for a Greater Israel. Hagee’s followers have donated a total of $3.3 billion to the Israeli military and Jewish settlers. CUFI organizes trips to the West Bank for its members. In this territory, which formerly belonged to Jordan, Jewish extremists are currently driving Palestinians from their rightful property. Zionist thugs are breaking into Palestinian homes and expelling them. The Israeli police support the settlers in their despicable activities. These criminal acts are financed by CUFI and presented to the American public in a favorable light.

John Hagee has nevertheless drawn criticism in the United States. In an interview, he stated that even Adolf Hitler was part of God’s plan. Specifically, he claimed that Hitler had forced the Jews to return to their true homeland, Palestine <10>. And this brings us to the eschatological beliefs of Christian Zionists. Christian Zionists derive from the Bible that the Jews, scattered across the globe—the so-called Diaspora—are to return to Palestine. And there, they have the right to drive out all other peoples to make way for their Greater Israel. There they await the final battle of Armageddon—the battle of the heavenly hosts against the hosts of evil, the satanic forces. It is clear from the Book of Revelation, the last book of the Christian Bible, that the battle of Armageddon will end in a victory for the heavenly hosts—indeed, it must end that way.

In the past, Christians certainly viewed Jews as part of the devil’s armies. However, this has now changed radically for reasons of political expediency. For Christian Zionists and the Jewish-Zionist sect of Shabbat Lubavitch share a common hope for an imminent end of the world following the appearance of the Messiah. Christians anticipate the return of Jesus Christ. The Shabbat Jews, for their part, anticipate the appearance of the Messiah, based loosely on the prophecies of the Old Testament prophet Daniel. Both figures merge into one and the same political-strategic end-times figure. Shabbat Lubavitch prophet Mendel Schneerson had already told the up-and-coming politician Benjamin Netanyahu in 1985 that he was to become Israel’s last head of government <11>. After Netanyahu, only the Messiah will come. And with him, the end of the world.

This is the software that clearly drives the psychotics in the command centers of both the U.S. and Israel. Instead of working to preserve, nurture, and improve our wonderful world, these deranged, Epsteinized elites can think of nothing better than to destroy everything—in the name of a delusional fantasy world.
It is high time to put a stop to this madness.
