America’s Christian Zionists: Israel’s Strategic Weapon?
Benjamin Netanyahu with Christian Zionist pastor John Hagee deceiving American Christians to support the antichrist state of Israel.
This article is a transcript of a short video below it.
I hope my friends and frequent visitors of this website are getting the point that one of the main underlining factors behind Israeli – Palestinian conflict is because American Christians have been deceived by one of the diabolical doctrines of dispensationalism to support a people, namely so called Israel, who are no longer God’s covenant people! The first terrorists in Palestine were not the Palestinian Muslims, they were the Jews against the British!
On July 22, 1946, the King David Hotel in Jerusalem was bombed, destroying the center of the British Mandatory administration. The attack by the Irgun pre-state Jewish underground (a terrorist organization) killed 91 and wounded 46. Among the dead were British employees, both civilian and military, members of the hotel staff, both Jewish and Arab, and other bystanders. (Source: www.haaretz.com)
Menachem Begin who later became Israel’s Prime Minister was the head of the Irgun terrorist organization! That makes Begin one of the first Middle East terrorists. And he later gets the Nobel Peace Prize 1978! We cannot expect true justice in this evil world!

Narrator: This is Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu defending Israel’s current war on Palestine’s Gaza with Biblical reasoning. Netanyahu invoked the notion of Amalek in reference to a holy war between good and evil cited in the Torah.
Dr. Stephen Sizer: Benjamin Netanyahu knows that he depends heavily on the United States to veto any UN resolutions critical of Israel’s behavior, and he needs US Military Support to counter any threat from Syria or Lebanon.
Narrator: But it’s not just Netanyahu. Such references have been echoing in the US for decades. In 1978, then-President Jimmy Carter mentioned that the establishment of Israel was the Fulfillment of a Biblical prophecy.
Dr. Stephen Sizer: It actually goes back to the 1960s, Jimmy Carter, Ronald Reagan. With the Six-Day War, it was kind of a wake-up call for Evangelical Bible-believing Christians, particularly in America. And it was exploited as the fulfillment of Bible prophecy.
Narrator: And at Israel’s current bombing campaign in Gaza, the rhetoric has turned more vile. American Evangelical pastors who are strong supporters of Zionism, just can’t stop repeating biblical prophecies.
Pastor Greg Laurie: Israel fasten your seat-belt. You’re seeing Bible prophecy fulfilled in your lifetime in real-time before your very eyes.
Michelle Bachmann: We shouldn’t be shocked and surprised that Satan is still at his same goal. Because prophecy talks about how Messiah will come back again.
Narrator: So, what is Christian Zionism? Christian Zionism is centered around an end-of-the-world interpretation of Christianity, the belief in the return of Jewish people to Israel leading to the second coming of Jesus Christ. It is one of the common factors that binds Christian Zionists with Zionism.
Dr. Stephen Sizer: Christian Zionism predates Jewish Zionism by at least 50 years and today dominates the Zionist movement at least 10 to 1, probably nearer 20 ~ 30 to 1. For every Jewish Zionist, there are 20 or 30 Christian Zionists. And therefore Netanyahu knows he needs particularly the Christian right in America, Canada, Sweden, Holland, and much of Europe, in order to maintain his position and to continue the expansion of the Zionist agenda in Palestine.
Narrator: And over the decades, this influential movement has dictated US foreign policy when it comes to the Israel-Palestine conflict. Remember when former US president Donald Trump made a candid confession during a rally in 2020?
Donald Trump: And we moved the capital of Israel to Jerusalem. That’s for the evangelicals! You know, it’s amazing that the evangelicals are more excited about that than Jewish people. It’s incredible.
Narrator: Currently, more than 100 members of the US Congress can be identified as Evangelical. Joe Biden, the current US president, has openly identified as a Zionist.
Joe Biden: You need not be a Jew to be a Zionist.
Narrator: There are hundreds of organizations in the United States founded by Christian Zionists that call for public support for the state of Israel, the biggest among them being Christians United for Israel with 10 million members led by the Evangelist John Hagee.
John Hagee: God is getting ready to defend Israel in such a supernatural way. It’s going to take the breath out of the lungs of the dictators on planet Earth.
Narrator: Evangelical support for Israel does not just stop at political lobbying, influencing foreign policy, and mobilizing public opinion, but also fundraising and organizing tours of the occupied West Bank, including funding settlements in the occupied territories which are illegal under international law. Evangelicals also oppose the two-state solution believing that dividing the land will incur God’s disfavor.
Dr. Stephen Sizer: It’s Israel’s strategy in the occupied territories and in Gaza. It is to depopulate them and steal more and more land. If you believe that there’s going to be a war of Armageddon, that we are on God’s side, Israel is on God’s side, and anyone who opposes us is on the enemy’s side…
Narrator: And this bias is reflected in the polls where a majority of Americans are supporting Israel over Palestinians amid the current conflict.
Dr. Stephen Sizer: So there is absolutely no justification for the killing of civilians, for genocide, for the kind of saturation bombing we’re seeing in Gaza at the moment. And Netanyahu knows that and so he’s pulling out of Scripture a verse here and a verse there to try and placate his main constituency which is the Christian Zionist movement.
