I don't suppose the author provides a source for that statement.
Hagee has said as much, in so many words, on several occasions. Not always with Iran as the trigger point, but always with the US playing a prominent role in it's alliance with the State of Israel.
I, for one, have never found even the most oblique Scriptural reference to America in the end times. I suspect this means that by then we will have been rendered irrelevant, one way or another...
Source?
Tee-Hee, that is a drive by media throw in, like a Mulligan or a Gimmie..
Hagee is really big on Evangelical/Israel ties, so McCain must have strong pro Israel positions that we never hear about in the Drive Thru Media..

It's all in the book/movie called "Epicenter" by Joel C. Rosenburg. The DVD version of Epicenter features Dr. Tim LaHaye of the Left Behind series. So it's big in the Evangelical/End Times crowd, and really is quite fascinating to see how the prophecies in the Bible/Koran are converging.
