The Real Reason The GOP Wants To Sabotage The Iran Nuclear Deal
"These Republicans aren’t just refusing to allow a treaty with Iran because they’re stubborn and hateful partisan ideologues who place sabotaging President Obama over everything else, they are also extremely loyal to two separate interests that I mentioned before. These two interests are defense contractors and religious extremists (both Jewish and Christian), both of which are huge supporters of the Republican Party. Neither of these groups want peace in the Middle East, because war is profitable if you’re the producer of tanks and bullets, and if you’re a religious extremist, war against your religious enemy is required by your twisted interpretation of what your god wants. Bernie Sanders is right when he said Republicans are “itching” for war with Iran, and the fact that Bobby Jindal (who has pandered hard to Christian extremists) is urging Republican presidential candidates to sign on to this letter is proof that the GOP is playing hard to the Christian fringe in this attempt to sabotage peace talks. The religious right, especially here in the United States, believes that a war involving Iran and Israel is part of a series of events needed to fulfill a Biblical prophecy found in the book of Revelations."
