Speaking to Christian Zionist group, Florida governor and Republican US presidential candidate pledges support for Israel.

Washington, DC – Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, who is seeking the Republican presidential nomination, has reiterated claims that the West Bank is not occupied, suggesting that Israel should be able to continue to build settlements on the Palestinian territory without interference from the United States.

Speaking to Christians United for Israel (CUFI) on Monday, DeSantis underscored his pro-Israel bona fides, including his efforts to crack down on companies that boycott the US ally.

    Keep in mind that Christian zionists see Jewish settlement of Israel as part of the prophecy of revelations / second coming of Jesus.

    That’s why they’re so supportive of this

      There is a deep irony in the fact that Israel’s most rabid supporters in the west are also the most anti-semitic.

      You can’t make this stuff up.

        Because it’s the only way the jews get their justice, Jesus comes back on his spaceship to pick up the good Christians and drops a few meganukes on Israel on the way out, so they all need to be penned in one place.

        This sounds like scientology or some shit but so many evangelicals believe this, we need to support the jews to help Jesus kill the jews in revenge for killing him, because you know that’s how he rolls.
