"Millions of Americans believe that God requires them to offer unconditional moral, financial, political and military support to Israel. They are Christian Zionists, the West's religious fundamentalists, and, guided by a literal reading of the Bible, they are convinced that Jerusalem will be the epicentre of the imminent Tribulation, a seven-year period of suffering which will culminate in Christ's Second Coming and the Battle of Armageddon." "In this book, Victoria Clark explores the 400-year-history of this powerful political ideology from its beginnings among the Puritans of 17th-century England to the present-day United States, where Christian Zionists wield unprecedented influence. In an attempt to understand the movement she travels through Israel and the American South, meeting its charismatic leaders and engaging with its enthusiastic followers, for whom the War on Terror is a mythic battle between good and evil, and Syria and Iran represent powers of darkness to be 'nuked' into oblivion. On the way she asks the questions that really matter: Are the Christian Zionist leaders telling the truth when they boast about their close links with the White House? How do Israelis feel about being given support by evangelicals who think they are doomed to hellfire? And what effect does the powerful Christian Zionist lobby have on the complex and volatile situation in the Middle East?"--BOOK JACKET.
