Holy Wars? The one the the CONservatives and Reform want us to join?
The line you’re referring to comes from a briefing where U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth quoted Bible verse Psalm 144 while speaking about U.S. troops in the Iran war.
Here is the key part of what he actually said:
“So I’ll close with scripture, drawing strength from Psalm 144.
‘Blessed be the Lord, my rock, who trains my hands for war and my fingers for battle.
He is my loving God, and my fortress, my stronghold and my deliverer, my shield in whom I take refuge.’”
He then added a short prayer:
“May the Lord grant unyielding strength and refuge to our warriors, unbreakable protection to them in our homeland, and total victory over those who seek to harm them. Amen.”
I say: 'May god help us all'!
