Lets give a rundown of the news since this early month about the joint U.S.-Israel war with Iran: March 3–Over 110 complaints were filed by U.S. troops claiming commanders said the war is biblically sanctioned and meant to bring about “Armageddon.” Officers framed the conflict as biblical end‑times prophecy, suggesting a widespread perception among service members that religious ideology is influencing leadership. (Military Leaders say Iran War is so Trump can bring about “Armageddon,” The New Republic).
March 4–Al Jazeera reported that U.S. troops were told the war is intended to bring about “biblical end times, Armageddon.” (Why are the US and Israel framing the Conflict as a Religious War).
March 6–An official government acknowledgment of the issue occurs when members of Congress formally requested a DOD Inspector General investigation, and complaints allege commanders invoked biblical prophecy and apocalyptic theology to justify military actions. (U.S. Congressman Jared Huffman, Members of Congress request Investigation into Alleged Reports that Military Leaders claim war in Iran part of Biblical End Times).
March 7–Evangelical apocalyptic beliefs within the Trump administration and military have shaped Iran war policy and are being used to justify military action in the continuation of Israel’s colonial project and imperial aspirations. (Armed Fanatics began Iran War: Its not Mullahs, New Arab).
All this has taken place, when just a month ago, Rep. Ted Lieu (D-CA) publicly stated that the newly unsealed Epstein documents contain serious allegations involving Donald Trump. These documents include claims from witnesses alleging, that Trump raped minors, and Trump threatened to kill the children if they spoke. This emphasizes that these are claims made by others, though not verified conclusions, but law enforcement should thoroughly investigate.
“Republicans are…trying to distract from the fact that Donald Trump is in the Epstein files thousands and thousands of times. In those files, there’s highly disturbing allegations of Donald Trump raping children, of Donald Trump threatening to kill children.”
Now, we are in a war, and no one is talking about these serious allegations. Also, people need to begin questioning the stupidity of conspiracy theories. Why do the masses of people associate the history of the ancient magi, the Zarathustrian wisdom, or the history of transmission of esoteric teachings with an international cabal of men hiding their criminal sexual perversity and games of blackmail? This is an inversion.
This brings to mind the late bloodlust of Lindsey Graham.
This is the sign of a compromised empty soul, who recently stated that Israel has a right to flatten Gaza in response to October 7 attacks, despite Israeli intelligence knowing of a Hamas plan before the October 7 attack, which they did not act on. “We flattened Germany, we flattened Japan.”
As Benjamin Netanyahu recently said, Israel would “reach the kingdom” and “make it to the Messiah’s return” in public remarks during the 2026 Iran war, religious eschatological convergences (Christian, Jewish, Islamic) are being invoked to interpret the war.
This is just on the eve of reports that Iran’s new Ayatollah Mojtaba Khamenei has a fervent focus on apocalyptic themes and is also fixated on End Times predictions.
Many people on social media appear increasingly disarmed and incapable of reining in their psychotic political class and displacing them, who appear to be exuberantly engaged in accelerationist eschatology. The people are largely incapable of doing so, because the citizens believe in the same myths and eschatology that men in power are drawing their beliefs from. Instead of being a matured actual rationalist, secular, enlightened Republic, the citizens engage in and indulge in the beliefs of those who rule and govern over them.
Benjamin Netanyahu is at the center of this problem, who was influenced by Rabbi Menachem Schneerson, a significant figure in the Shabbat Lubavitch movement, who encouraged the hastening of events that would lead to the coming of the Jewish Mashiach. Netanyahu attempted to appeal to the aspirations of Israelis and American Christian Zionists recently, by declaring the era of the Mashiach has come. It is the far-right factions within Netanyahu’s government that believe in this imminent arrival.
“About 30 years ago, the late Lubavitcher Rebbe told a young Netanyahu that “he, Benjamin Netanyahu, will be Israel’s prime minister, who will pass the scepter to the Messiah.” The Lubavitcher Rebbe said this during the election campaign in the 1990s, before Netanyahu’s first term in office. Today, Israel is in a kind of apocalyptic mood, Bibi is prime minister and the scepter is in his hand.” (Aviel Schneider, Lubavitcher Rebbe: “After Bibi comes the Messiah”)
Benjamin Netanyahu is the same man that spent forty-years of his political career accusing Muslims of being religious extremists.
Jiang Xueqin (well-known known as Professor Jiang) claims that secret societies are behind the war in the Middle East and they want to bring about the Apocalypse and the Antichrist. His entire narrative is based largely on ahistorical conspiracy syncretism that mythologizes human elites, spreads disinformation and distracts the public from empirical analysis of power. Jiang claims, that their real power base is composed of a collection of secret societies that have an eschatological view of the war and foreign policy. These secret societies he wrongly claims, include the Freemasons, which he says are now called Rosicrucians and the Knights Templars, Jewish organizations called Sabbaetean-Frankists who are embedded in religious movements called Shabbat Lubavitch and the Jesuits.
Professor Jiang also follows this belief, that current world events and reports from U.S. military and Netanyahu that a script is being acted out, and once the Greater Israel project is in place, it will transform into the Pax Judea — a surveillance state, that will lead to the eschatological conflict as depicted in Tim LaHaye and Jerry B. Jenkins Left Behind book series, with the arrival of the Jewish Messiah or the Antichrist.
There is no unified collection of such secret societies, and Jiang’s Illuminati pop-culture conspiracy falsely lumps unrelated groups together. Keep in mind, that Adam Weishaupt and his Order of Perfectibilists was explicitly anti-Jesuit, anti-Vatican, anti-monarchical and Enlightenment-republican focused on secular education reform, reason, moral perfectibility and human emancipation from tyrannical and despotic government, e.g., like surveillance states based on artificial intelligence that claim to protect. THIS IS LITERALLY THE OPPOSITE OF WEISHAUPT’S PHILOSOPHY AGAINST GOVERNMENT DOMINATION AND HYPOCRISY. The Illuminati had no beliefs established on apocalyptic beliefs, Jewish messianism or Antichrist scenarios. The Bavarian Illuminati reframed Jesus as an ethical teacher of natural morality and human moral perfectibility — the very opposite of antinomian messianic cults and the radical antinomian ethic of Jacob Frank.
Also, Jesuits and the Vatican were not the Illuminati’s allies, and Rosicrucians historically opposed the Illuminati alongside the Church. Jiang imports eschatological panic that competes with verifiable Zionist-Evangelical theatrics but does not explain them. The narratives protect criminal networks of financier-politician-intelligence, by turning them into cartoonish secret society villains. This disorganizes public understanding, which already conflates Enlightenment heritage with eschatological evil since the original Illuminati panic that melded into the Jewish-Masonic conspiracy. Real power analysis requires evidence-based dissection of state-corporate-intelligence structures, not source-free predictive history, that conforms events to a fabricated script that affirms religious eschatology and fictional novels. This undermines the advancement of secularism and civic literacy.
This is the most opportune moment to politically disenfranchise and delegitimize the American evangelical enterprise in our politics as integrated with the political opposition and work on unseating them, because they have become a threat to all citizens and the world. This is risked by our lack of insight at the moment and masses of people falling to controlled proliferated disinformation through the tactics of conspiracies spread since the original Illuminati panic and falling into these eschatological beliefs or hastening in this game of political theater. Knowledge and gnosis provide strength, and fear makes citizens complicit, predictable and vulnerable to manipulation. Be wise and mindful and reject mythologizations of those who govern you.
