Democrats demand investigation of claims US-Israeli war on Iran is biblical prophecy

Nearly 30 Democratic members of Congress are demanding an investigation into claims that the US-Israeli war on Iran is being presented to troops as a biblical prophecy. Their letter to the Department of War's inspector general expresses concern that commanders are using apocalyptic theology to justify the military action. The lawmakers argue this raises constitutional issues and may violate Department of Defense regulations on religious neutrality. The inquiry also seeks to determine if this is part of a broader trend by senior officials to frame Middle East policy in explicitly religious terms.
