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

"this war is gonna bring back jesus, it is time for the 2nd coming of christ"

two days later

"btw we're asking iran pretty please stop bombing because otherwise some oil companies will be sad"

are they listening to how cowardly it sounds to talk about armageddon and then beg for diplomacy? if you wanna believe in this whacko christo-zionist fantasy, believe in it to the bitter end.

Hit the big red button because God told you to, scum. You really believe you'll be vindicated by Christ? Prove it.

You assume they aren't just outright lying. They are lying.

There's zero chance in any hell that Trump thinks this war might bring Jesus back. First of all it would remove Trumps power and that's the only thing that shit for brains has ever cared about. Secondly Trump knows if Christianity were real he will definitely burn in hell.

This is simply manipulation to get the sheep to fall into line. Nothing more.
