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.

Very informative book about Israeli - Palestinian conflict. Surprisingly it wasn't too complicated to listen to. Would recommend to those that are interested in this subject.

Honestly this book was disappointing in that the themes talked about were the old standbys of abortion, slavery and nazism. There was very little regarding the effect of religion on core family, the church on the communities, the moral affect of faith/religion on the west, the impact of western civilization on the rest of the world.
