U.S. commanders are reportedly telling troops that President Donald Trump’s surprise war with Iran is part of “God’s divine plan.”
The Military Religious Freedom Foundation—a nonprofit that advocates for service members’ constitutional right to religious freedom—says it has received more than 200 calls from active-duty personnel across 50 military installations since the U.S. struck Iran in coordination with Israel overnight Saturday. Callers say their commanders have likened Trump’s war to a holy war.
A spokesperson for the Nobel Peace Prize-nominated organization shared one such complaint from an active-duty service member in a statement published Tuesday.
