Opus 2020-100: Headlines: Watch Out for the Christian Zionists

You really need to be careful what you read and keep your mind turned on.  In my search for news I have book marked a number of sites that might give news without the filter of the American MSM.  One of those was the English version of the Korea Times.  I have read a few articles and felt they were a source to consider.  That changed today.  I am getting tired of the constant hype of the Chinavirus so I thought I would see what the Korea Times thought was interesting.  It all looked pretty standard until I saw a headline, “above the fold” as they say, along the right side that announced,

“Rise of Christian Zionists in US government and collapse of chain of command”

That got my attention.  My wife is into conspiracy videos and has been known to express anger at the “Zionists”.  She has no awareness of the history of the term.  All she knows is what her guru has told her, filtered through falling asleep halfway through the video.  I don’t remember her using the term “Christian Zionist”.  I started reading.

I did not get far before I started wandering what the author had been smoking.  It was a fascinating bit of left wing propaganda.  To be honest I could not read it but I did skim a little bit.  One paragraph I read that gave me some insight into the philosophy of the author.

“This system worked well, and it allowed for the ideas of freedom that were proposed in the constitution at the founding of the republic to be reinterpreted so as to apply to all citizens. This ideology of the "New Deal" promoted by Franklin Roosevelt survived in a modified form until the election of George W. Bush in 2000. But it had already been weakened considerably at that time.”

He is praising the Progressive/socialist programs that FDR foisted on the American people.  Notice that it was FDR who forced the reinterpretation of the Constitution to apply to us common people.  And then there is the implied back-hand at Ronald Regan who had already “weakened considerably” the efforts of the Progressives.

I also noticed mention of how the military was murdering black officers who showed too much promise.  At that point I had consumed all I could take.

I consider myself a Christian and I am very supportive of Israel.  I have never run into these Christian Zionists that are working hand in hand with the uber rich to control our country and make lots of money.

What these people never explain is where these rich people are supposed to spend there money if they destroy the economy.

Maybe I will look somewhere else besides the Korea Times.
