If anyone still thinks that the radical end-times “prophecy” movement is not a threat to peace and stability, think again. At the popular level, in terms of the TV preachers and the hot-selling prophecy books, the dispensational pre-trib stuff still reigns supreme. Most conservative-leaning Evangelical churches in America today are heavily influenced by popular dispensational theology to some degree. Even churches and pastors that don’t teach pretribulationalism still are influenced by dispensationalism to varying degrees. The most dangerous element of this prophetic paradigm, however, is its doom-and-gloom view of the world. And in most cases, those who have a fascination with the end of the world have a particular fascination with war and militarism as well. More problematic, it assumes that their wars of choice are not just their own foreign policy preferences or personal opinions. Rather they are ordained by God...

Every word the War Party rattled off before the invasion — the reasons for the invasion, the ‘evidence’ of WMD, the alleged connection between the Iraqi regime and 9/11 — was either a lie or a half-truth intended to obscure the full truth. Hitchens was one of the main disseminators of these lies, yet he has the temerity to stand there and tell us he’s not sorry. He and his pal Ahmed Chalabi belong to the legion of ‘heroes in error’: they’re proud of their deceit. It has proved, after all, the key to their postwar success. … For the War Party, the world is a better place now that the U.S. has invaded Iraq and occupied it for four years: we have the ’surge’ to look forward to — and now the glad tidings of yet another war, an even bigger and ‘better’ one, with Iran. As far as Hitchens and his fellow neocons are concerned, happy days are here again...

Interview with Reese Erlich

Secretly, U.S. intelligence services are also sponsoring armed attacks within Iran. I discovered the U.S. and Israeli support for PJAK in Kurdistan and from so-called former MEK members.

If George W. Bush launches a preemptive war on Iran, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi will bear full moral responsibility for that war. For it was Pelosi who quietly agreed to strip out of the $100 billion funding bill for Iraq a provision that would have required President Bush to seek congressional approval before launching any new war on Iran. Pelosi’s capitulation came in the Appropriations Committee. What went down, and why?

Very few Americans believe Iran represents a danger for their country, according to a poll by New York Times and CBS News. Only 10 per cent of respondents think Iran is a threat to the United States that requires military action now, down 11 points since mid-February.

The forces are in place to conduct a strike right now. The US has moved an additional carrier group, has deployed additional missile defense assets, has deployed an additional mine sweeping ship to the gulf. The US is in the process of adding oil to a strategic petroleum reserve. All of these are the steps that would be taken if one were going to conduct a strike in Iran.

The Iran-US standoff at the present time has a shocking resemblance to the run-up to the US led invasion of Iraq.
