Unironically I think most of it is just Protestants wanting to bring upon the end times

I guess conservative Christians usually just don’t know that Arab christians are a pretty big group of people. They think Arab = Muslim.

I feel like that partly explains the support of Israel as a concept and zionism as an ideology, but to me it doesn’t really explain the justification of Israeli actions or the denial of crimes committed against Palestinians. I feel like for that part you have to get into white nationalism and the dehumanization of brown people in general, even if they’re Christian

It’s largely evangelicals who grew up with the scofield bible, which was packed to the brim with pro-Israel footnotes and references. Any verse that could’ve been twisted to benefit Israel was twisted in the margins.

This: it’s not even a Protestant thing, it’s an evangelical thing. There’s a really specific and weird flavor of antisemitism baked into a lot of American evangelical churches where they want to send all Jews to Israel to bring on the apocalypse and see them as essentially infidels, but try to frame it as like, a positive thing.
