How reassuring, to have someone who has been absolutely drooling at the prospect of Armageddon, sitting at the head of the negotiating table for the most explosive spot on the globe!

Not saying having been a pastor is a disqualifier in someone (hypothetically) otherwise perfectly qualified for the post, but you know Donnie pays attention to this sort of thing (in fact, he pays attention to little else)

So this is definitely his way of f*cking with Israel.

an end-of-days Christian fundamentalist as Ambassador. Mike wants the Jews to bulldoze Temple Mount, rebuild Herod's Temple and bring on Armageddon at which time all the Jews who don't convert to Christianity will be killed. But now he's their problem.
