The American Secretary of Defense, Pete Hegseth, compared Donald Trump to Jesus, and journalists to Jewish adversaries plotting his destruction. The statements were made in the context of questions about the war waged by the USA and Israel against Iran.
Most likely, Hegseth was trying to counter what he considers to be negative reporting about military actions, according to g4media.ro, citing Reuters. The statements come against the backdrop of growing misunderstandings between the American leader and the Vatican, following Pope Leon’s criticisms of the hostilities.
Recently, Donald Trump posted on social networks an image featuring the face of Jesus.
Hegseth previously officiated prayers at the Pentagon, claiming that this helped in finding the pilot of a plane shot down in Iran. Before, similar scenes took place in the Oval Office at the White House.
