Israel, Iran, and Lying Spirits

Nearly 3,000 years ago, the Lord dispatched a lying spirit to convince King Ahab to go to war with the Arameans—a battle that cost him his life. Today, a group of conservative podcasters who supported President Trump have flipped since the beginning of Operation Epic Fury on Feb. 28, 2026.

These podcasters, perhaps chasing clicks or just addicted to running against the official White House narrative, have contributed to a startling shift in American public opinion about Israel and its prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu. In the last four years, American adults have swung from a 55% positive view of Israel to 60% negative, with the biggest change among Americans under age 50.

News coverage of Israel’s war against Hamas hasn’t helped, but popular podcasters have piled on. Are they basing their publicly expressed views on the facts, or have they been seduced by spirits into repeating medieval blood libel?

We also discuss recent claims by Congressman Tim Burchett (R—Tenn.) that if the American public knew what the US government knew about UFOs and “aliens,” we wouldn’t be able to sleep.
