Waiting For Armageddon DVD: A Must See if You Want to Understand the 50 Million Americans Who Believe in End Times, Sarah Palin, Mike Huckabee and Michelle Bachmann Among Them (5/18/10 Release Date)

BUZZFLASH REVIEWS

 So much of the language of the right (think Palin and Bachmann) is in code for a desire to rule on behalf of heralding in the End Times, or Armageddon. This is not a joke that progressives should feel disdain for; it's one that they should regard with alarm.

And that is why this documentary is so informative. It doesn't cast harsh judgment. Instead, it lets representatives of the 50 million American Evangelists who believe in End Times explain and speak about what will happen, including the destruction of all the Jews who don't convert, but even that number will be limited.

This is a film that goes a long way toward explaining what appears on the surface to be an odd alliance between the End Times Evangelists and Israel. It's a particularly peculiar pairing since when the "rapture" occurs, the Jewish faith will no longer exist and only a few "lucky" converted Jews will survive as Christians.

It also explains how Evangelists see disaster as a heralding of Armageddon and therefore something to be celebrated not mourned.

This is one of the most insightful documentaries we have seen as BuzzFlash reviwers, precisely because it lets the Evangelists articulate their own views on Armageddon, and that's really quite chilling, considering they have so many people in our government and hoping to lead it into Armageddon.

When will the Enlightenment come to the U.S.? Oh, that's right, it did, over 40 years ago, and it caused the religious right to go bonkers.


U.S. Christian Evangelicals planted in Kurdish Iraq

Building Empires: U.S. Evangelical Christians' Kurdish Crusade While most
Talk2Action readers are familiar with the growing influence of Christian
Zionists and their close relationship with Israel, you may not be aware of
the penetration of American evangelicals into Northern Iraq. I recently
had the opportunity to interview Mike Reynolds, a longtime investigative
reporter who through his research uncovered the special relationship
between Iraqi Kurds and a group of American evangelicals that practices
"spiritual warfare," harbors a deep animosity toward Islam, and views the
region as the evangelistic final frontier. Reynolds: In September 2003,
four months after US forces defeated Saddam Hussein, 350 evangelical
pastors and church leaders assembled in Kirkuk, welcomed by Kurdistan
Regional Government President Massoud Barzani. During the gathering,
George Grant, the American director of the Classical School of The Medes,
declared that `Jesus Christ is Lord over all things; He is Lord over every
Mullah, every Ayatollah, every Imam, and every Mahdi pretender; He is Lord
over the whole of the earth, even Iraq!' You can read the complete
