US Troops Killed as Calls Grow to Withdraw Forces from Middle East

Amid ongoing US strikes against Iran and the deaths of multiple American service members in Jordan and Iraq, former National Counterterrorism Center Director Joe Kent is urgently calling for a full withdrawal of US military forces from the Middle East. The escalating conflict between the United States and Iran places the region at the centre of prophetic attention, as tensions around Israel, the Strait of Hormuz, and Iranian military capability intensify in ways Scripture associates with the build-up to end-times conflict. The Bible warns of wars and rumours of wars as a sign of the last days, and the gathering of nations against Israel and the broader Middle East region aligns with passages in Daniel, Ezekiel, and the Olivet Discourse.
