It's nuts how a huge segment of the Christian religion has been revised and restructured to now completely revolve around giving military support to a nation that's younger than Dolly Parton. Christian Zionism didn't become a mainstream political force until the 1970s. For two millennia Christianity trotted along without any modern state called "Israel" to pay attention to, and even after that state's whole-cloth creation in 1948 most Christians went decades without taking much notice. It wasn't until freaks like Jerry Falwell and Billy Graham began herding Christians into the belief that God commands them to vote for politicians who'll send Apache helicopters to Tel Aviv that this psychotic worldview achieved meaningful purchase in public consciousness. And at that point it actually transformed into an entirely different religion. For those branches of Christianity, the central figure was no longer Jesus, the Bible or the Church, but this brand new ethnostate run by western immigrants which cannot exist without nonstop military violence. They torched two thousand years of theology and tradition and burnt the whole thing to the ground, and in its place they built up a late-20th century religion which revolves around sending US war machinery to west Asia. I'm not saying Christianity was a wonderful religion that did nothing wrong prior to the advent of Christian Zionism, but it was undeniably a completely different faith from one which places military support for the modern state of Israel as its central and foremost value. And it's just plain bizarre how rarely people notice this and talk about it.
