Rapture Ready: The Unauthorized Christians United for Israel Tour


Rapture Ready: The Unauthorized Christians United for Israel Tour from huffpost on Vimeo.

As even McCain distances himself from Hagee and his beliefs, here we see Joe Lieberman describe Pastor Hagee as Moses.

I want to take the liberty of describing Pastor Hagee in the words the Torah uses to describe Moses. . . and those words really fit him. Like Moses, he has become the leader of a mighty multitude, even greater than the multitude that Moses led from Egypt to the Promise Land.
The rest of the views on display here, the bombing of Iran to benefit Israel etc, simply speak for themselves. But to see mainstream US politicians openly embracing this kind of lunacy really is deeply disturbing.

Why is Liberman not being vilified for supporting such a person that even McCain has had to distance himself from? And why are people who hold such extremist views so easily accepted into the American political mainstream?

What's also astonishing is the belief that the anti-Christ will be the person "who forces Israel into a peace deal with the Arabs". Why are mainstream American politicians associating themselves with such extremists?
