You think this team is doing any thinking?

Not to get into conspiracies, but there is a good chance that Trump is completely comprised because of his relationship with Epstein and the access Epstein had with world leaders. I would not be surprised if Netanyahu has serious dirt on him.

I just thought this was a given and common sense.

So all those grifting evangelical pastors around Trump are getting what they really want

A combat-unit commander told non-commissioned officers at a briefing Monday that the Iran war is part of God’s plan and that Pres. Donald Trump was “anointed by Jesus to light the signal fire in Iran to cause Armageddon and mark his return to Earth,” according to a complaint by a non-commissioned officer. From Saturday morning through Monday night, more than 110 similar complaints about commanders in every branch of the military had been logged by the Military Religious Freedom Foundation (MRFF). The complaints came from more than 40 different units spread across at least 30 military installations, the MRFF told me Monday night

Yes, noted warmonger Jesus Christ would certainly approve.

I don't think it matters any more what dirt you have on him.

He is dirt.

Sen Tim Sheehy (R) just assaulted a protesting marine vet and broke his arm. FYI video audio is graphic.

https://bsky.app/profile/clairezagor.../3mgbc3vruoc2e

Sheehy had no business interfering and assisting with what the police were doing but MAGAts love violence. Hopefully he’s sued and charged with assault.

Maybe, but they are also the organization who complaints would go to, form what I understand. They have a good reputation. And, you know, given that the head of DoW wrote this, it's likely happening. Perhaps not a top down dictate, but in units or whatever led by like-minded people.

Thing is with this bat####, insanely corrupt administration is what story could be floated out there that you would say "I just can't see it"? So whether this is true or not is kind of irrelevant, because it's totally plausible and as we know perception = reality. But I'm not entirely sure how attacking Iran would cause the apocalypse since Iran doesn't actually have the ability to do so. Would make more sense if they were going after Pakistan, who does have the ability to cause annihilation. Even if Iran got nuked it would be an isolated nuking and not one that triggers the apocalypse.

Iran is allied with China and Russia. Maybe that’s their thinking for an apocalypse.

Russia is a little occupied at the moment, and China would likely prefer to save their one shot at a nuclear option for Taiwan and not to maybe help Iran. But I'm really overthinking this one, its a comment directed at a bunch of dumb #### yanks, rah rah is all that matters, not intelligence.

back in the 90's i had a really good friend of mine that was super into apocalypse/prophecy/end times stuff - this dude really immersed himself in it... and not just biblical prophecy stuff, but all kinds - he read EVERYTHING and watched tons of different videos on the subject.
i'll never forget something from one video that we watched. it was a barry smith video (the only reason i can remember that name is from seeing berry & smith trucks on the road!). anyways, the one thing that still sticks with me over all these decades later is barry smith talking about how the US would have to fall from being a world power and that has to happen from his interpretation of end times prophesy.
so you never know... maybe this current US administration is bringing about armageddon.... but not quite the way they think!

I came across this video in my feed yesterday. Russia and China seemed to abandon Iran pretty quickly.

There are plenty of videos on YouTube about the so-called end times and Iran/Ezekiel 38 prophecy.


https://baptistnews.com/article/the-...ntion-in-iran/

But here’s an overview. They’re going to believe Iran has nukes no matter what reality is. The Bible told them so!
