Christian Zionism: Justifying Apartheid in the Name of God
Only one nation, Israel, stands between ... terrorist aggression and the com-
plete decline of the United States as a democratic world power... If Israel falls,
the United States can no longer remain a democracy. ...Arab money is being
used to control and influence major U.S. Corporations, making it economically
more and more difficult for the United States to stand against world terrorism.
