Mike Huckabee shared a text message he sent urging president Donald Trump to strike Iran, and an Israeli journalist and author said the ambassador’s “Bible-thumping, messianic rhetoric” revealed the Christian right’s dark ambitions.
Trump’s ambassador to Israel called on Trump to join military operations against Iran, saying he was spared from an assassin’s bullet by God to be the “most consequential President in a century — maybe ever,” and Haaretz columnist Etan Nechin warned that Huckabee and other “Christian Zionists” are calling for war to usher in what they believe will be the end times.
“Huckabee believes deeply in Dispensationalist theology, which holds that modern Israel fulfills biblical prophecy and must be supported until the end of days. He’s also not shy about it,” Nechin wrote. “In April, standing atop the ancient walls of Jerusalem,the ambassador declared: ‘We have the opportunity to be representatives not only of our government, but also representatives of Jesus Christ.'”
