In the discussion following a short piece I wrote in LiveJournal's RadAware group concerning Reagan's "Evil Empire" speech , someone sent me a link to this piece, on the AntiWar site: "Armageddon", by Morgan Strong reads in part:
"When we go to war in Iraq we will do so to summon the Messiah. That is what the Christian right believes. The final battle to rid the world of all non-believers, non-Christians, more exactly non-Evangelical Christians, is going to take place very soon at Armageddon in Israel. The Bible tells us so. [...] Rev. Jerry Falwell believes fully, and un-equivocally that we must go to war with Iraq to set in motion the cataclysmic events that will ensure the second coming of Jesus Christ. War with Iraq will lead to the end of the World, as we know it."
