The Iran war is the first conflict in modern history where Christian Armageddon theology, Jewish Purim typology, and Shia martyrdom doctrine are all being activated simultaneously by different actors to justify the same kinetic events — the prophecy layer is no longer metaphor, it is operational doctrine inside the US military.
