Well, all three Abrahamic religions originated from that general area, and everybody everywhere who believed their magical guy in the sky told them to take it back descended on them for centuries.
And then for the past few decades, the magical thinking started to decline, and westerners started to descend on them for the black stuff in their ground - which turns out to be just as addictive as magical thinking.
And now, the magical thinking is back with a vengeance, and the westerners descend on them under both pretexts. Because if there’s one thing Pete Kegbreath made very clear, it’s that the Iran War is as much about christy bullshit as it is about oil - maybe with a dash of Quentin Tarantino 🙂
