U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has repeatedly framed the U.S.-Israeli war on Iran in extremist religious terms, citing Biblical scripture about retribution in public statements about U.S. military engagement.
Palestinian Christian theologian Reverend Munther Isaac, based in Ramallah and Bethlehem, joins many other Christians around the world, including Pope Leo XIV, the U.S.-born head of the Catholic Church, in rebuking Hegseth's nationalist rhetoric.
