Eschatology Drives Israel Lobbying

A specific strain of evangelical end‑times theology (futurist premillennialism/dispensationalism) creates not just private beliefs but organized political pressure in favor of Israeli government positions. That theology supplies a prophetic narrative and moral imperative that activists and pastors have translated into lobbying, mass mobilization, and direct meetings with Israeli leaders. — Recognizing theology as an explicit mobilizing frame explains why certain foreign‑policy positions persist across electoral cycles and clarifies the non‑material incentives shaping U.S.–Israel politics.
