I expect to see more Democrat representatives and senators shot in the next few months and years. No need to do it "officially" when the stochastic enforcement arm of Alex Jones Primed terrorists will do it for you.
Sure. Stochastic assassination is a real and driving concern. But what does it have to do with Iran? What does it have to do with end-times evangelical Christians? This is where I lose patience with quote-unquote liberals, and I say that as a guy any political quiz will out as borderline socialist: "the sky is falling" is not a useful political or philosophical position. Shit's all fucked up. Craven nazis are running the government. There's plenty to freak out about why do you find it necessary to skip-load to a completely different argument just so you can find something to shout at me about? Oh boo hoo hoo the only credible choices are inaction and assassination, everyone on BSky agrees.
Specifically, any conflict with Israel is used to stoke the fires and ramp up the 'We must be faithful instruments of His Will' talk. Iran is easy to use as the next 'Great Enemy' no matter what the book says. The 'Death to America' chanting makes this very easy. Vance Boelter has a traceable education in Christian Nationalism. Places like Christ for the Nations Institute still exist today, and are where he got his start. https://slowcivilwar.substack.com/p/on-the-christian-education-of-dr Not trying to move any goalposts.But what does it have to do with Iran?

"Great" enemies must be exactly that - "great." Let's suppose we were dealing with a Khrushchev-era USSR - beating us at spaceflight, rolling up non-aligned states, possessing a(n apocryphal) "missile gap." The Communists were definitely Godless and the John Birch Society made great hay with it. But even then, it wasn't apocalyptic it was "must be defeated." We're not dealing with a Khrushchev-era USSR tho. We're dealing with a country that lost control of its own skies in three days, whose navy is principally equipped with outboard motors, which has been throwing shit with a CEP on the order of hundreds of meters at a country the size of New Jersey. You can't pop off at their nuclear weapons program between rounds of golf and still argue they're "great." Besides which, evangelicals are going extinct. I know they occupy an outsized place in your universe but other than the Charlie Kirk millennial incels, every demo is down. So on the one hand, you look like a chump calling an enemy "great" if you can push them over without so much as a congressional hearing. And on the other hand, the number of people willing to listen to "because Jesus said so" has never been so low as now.
