About this episode
The episode explores the organized and politically sophisticated nature of Christian Zionism and its implications for U.S. policy regarding Israel and Iran.
Christian Zionism is not fringe. It is organized, funded, politically sophisticated, and deeply sincere. And its view of Iran is not primarily strategic — it’s prophetic. That changes everything about how its members engage with policy. We need to understand them. Because if we want to make sense of why U.S. policy around Israel and Iran looks the way it does, we can’t ignore the millions of Americans who believe they’re watching biblical prophecy unfold on the evening news. Christian Zionists claim that Armageddon has BEGUN!
