This book is must reading for anybody interested in contemporary Israeli – American relations. The author makes a very strong case; perhaps too strong, for the proposition that born-again Christians are natural allies of the Jews, and of the state of Israel. Indeed, I gave the book four rather than five stars because the case may be over-made.

The book’s strongest point is that Christians can and often are allies of the state of Israel. I do not believe that it is inevitable or unanimous. It is enough that much of Christianity, particularly in the Americas, has gone from being vitriolically anti-Jewish to be strong supporters. To argue that it is almost universal is likely a mistake.

The book contains a lot of information that was not previously familiar to me. That in itself is a recommendation because I am fairly current on this issue.

That being said, I strongly recommend the book, and it is a fairly easy read.… (meer)
