The Daily Blast With Greg Sargent
|
Donald Trump erupted in angry threats against Iran over the still-closed Strait of Hormuz, vowing to potentially bomb electric and desalination plants. In effect, Trump is threatening war crimes due to his own failure to anticipate closure of the strait. This comes after Pete Hegseth issued a widely criticized prayer seeking God's assistance in "overwhelming" violence against Iran, which Pope Leo has now sharply rebuked. That's telling. Because as scholar-of-religion Sarah Posner explains in today's episode, the bloodlust drenching this war effort is in many ways the product of extreme theology: in particular, Hegseth's Christian Reconstructionism. Posner, who hosts the excellent Reign of Error podcast, takes us through those extreme theological ideas, explains the deeper roots of Hegseth-Trump-MAGA sadism toward perceived "enemies," and details the hidden reasons the pope's criticism really matters.
