Is that why Russia didn't invade its neighbors, the Abraham Accords were signed bringing some measure of peace to the Middle East, and anti-peace agitators like the head of Iran's Quds Force, General Suleimani, was removed from the existence?During the Trump administration, Sec. of State Mike Pompeo saw American foreign policy through the lens of biblical prophesy.
War in Israel: A Fulfillment of Bible Prophecy?
Any student of Bible prophecy should pay careful attention to the conflict in Israel with Hamas and Iran. Here is why.
Fear of retribution.
Then why are they even bothering to run? To get name recognition for 2028?
I guess you’d have to ask guys like Pompeo. Or Steve Bannon. Bannon once gave a talk to an audience in the Vatican explaining how the time has come for Christianity to wipe Islam from the face of the Earth. That we must enter a great war for the survival of Christianity and civilization.

Lawyer Sidney Powell pleaded guilty to reduced charges Thursday over efforts to overturn Donald Trump’s loss in the 2020 election in Georgia, becoming the second defendant in the sprawling case to reach a deal with prosecutors.
As part of the deal, she will serve six years of probation, will be fined $6,000 and will have to write an apology letter to Georgia and its residents. She also recorded a statement for prosecutors and agreed to testify truthfully against her co-defendants at future trials.
The plea deal makes Powell the most prominent known person to be working with prosecutors investigating Trump’s efforts to overturn the election. Her cooperation in the case and participation in strategy talks threaten to expose the former president and offer insight on what he was saying and doing in the critical period after the election.
Above all, the guilty plea is a remarkable about-face for a lawyer who, perhaps more than anyone else, strenuously pushed baseless conspiracy theories about a stolen election in the face of extensive evidence to the contrary. She also has important knowledge about high-profile events, including a news conference she participated in on behalf of Trump and his campaign shortly after the election and on a White House meeting she attended in mid-December of 2020 in which prosecutors say ways to influence the outcome of the election were discussed.
“This is somebody who was at ground zero of these allegations and a lawyer who is pleading guilty," he said. “This is very significant.”
Powell is referenced, though not by name, as one of six unindicted co-conspirators in Smith’s federal case charging Trump with plotting to overturn the election. That indictment notes how Trump had privately acknowledged to others that Powell’s unfounded claims of election fraud were “crazy,” yet nonetheless he promoted and embraced a lawsuit that Powell filed against the state of Georgia that included what prosecutors said were “far-fetched” and baseless assertions.
A lower-profile defendant in the case, bail bondsman Scott Graham Hall, last month pleaded guilty to five misdemeanor charges. He was sentenced to five years of probation and agreed to testify in further proceedings.
Willis has faced some criticism over her wide-ranging indictment and use of the state’s anti-racketeering law to charge so many defendants. Some people had speculated that, if her case did not go well, it could undermine Smith’s case, Fishwick said.
“This certainly shows that at least, as of today, it’s not undermining it. In fact, it’s strengthening his case,” Fishwick said.
Agreed. Maybe her value as a witness for the prosecution trumps a more severe punishment.
The bigger piece is her testimony against the bigger fish.
I think that is the maximum sentence they could give her. They're all misdemeanors which in Georgia cap out at $1,000 each. I only know that because recently it made news that someone got a $1.4 million dollar speeding ticket in Georgia. Officials went on to explain the speeder wasn't actually being charged $1.4 million dollars for the speeding ticket but that a court appearance for his speeding ticket was mandatory and that the sentence for the speeding ticket could not exceed $1,000 by law.

$1.4 million speeding ticket surprised Georgia man before officials clarified
The man called the court thinking the figure was a typo but says he was told he either had to pay it or appear in court in December.
Right? So she WAS facing felony charges but as part of the plea they reduced everything down to a misdemeanor. They didn't have to offer such a good deal.
Agreed. But I'll give up the occasional poisonous toad if it helps me ferret out the rabid crocodiles.
