This is the first installment in Heretical Ideas’ Conspiracy Week, in which our authors attempt to make up the most outlandish conspiracy theories they can think of. For background on conspiracies and Conspiracy Week, read this article.

There have been a lot of different conspiracy theories put forth about President Obama: how he wasn’t born in America, how he is a secret Muslim, and how he seeks to make America a socialist nation. None of them have captured the truth until now. I am going to lay out a series of facts, each one well-documented and irrefutable, and then show the terrifying thread that connects these seemingly separate events.
Fact I: The Obama Health Care Plan will Target the Elderly
Opposition to the Obama socialist health-care rationing plan has been growing across the country. One devilish detail that recently emerged from the 1200 page document was the existence of government counseling service whose goal was to convince seniors to kill themselves.
“The House Bill also sets up a plan for counseling or trying to convince citizens, ages 65 and older, they are a financial burden on family and society. According to [health care advocate] Betsy McCaughey, they will be coached in ways to end their lives through such methods as withholding nutrition and terminal care options.”
Need more proof? US Representative Louie Gohmert says the following:
“We’ve been battling this socialist health care, the nationalization of health care, that is going to absolutely kill senior citizens. They’ll put them on lists and force them to die early because they won’t get the treatment as early as they need.”
Now those on the left are going to try to dismiss this as an attack from the fringe. Yet former Governor and Vice Presidential candidate Sarah Palin, a main-stream political figure, said this:
“The America I know and love is not one in which my parents or my baby with Down Syndrome will have to stand in front of Obama’s “death panel” so his bureaucrats can decide, based on a subjective judgment of their ‘level of productivity in society,’ whether they are worthy of health care. Such a system is downright evil.”
The important question for us is not whether or not Obama plans to kill the nation’s senior citizens. Clearly he does. The question is, why is he doing it? The answer is shocking, and it brings together the other facts we will examine in a terrifying conclusion.
Fact II: Obama supports Ahmadinejad, Who Seeks Nuclear Weapons in Iran
When the Iranian election fraud led to riots in the streets of Tehran, the world was transfixed. Many Republicans called for US support of the protestors, but it took Obama over a week to even make a statement condemning the actions of the Iranian government. Even then, he acted under Republican pressure. Why?
The cruel reality is that Obama wants Ahmadinejad to be President of Iran!
“When Obama Administration Iran czar Dennis Ross and top U.S. Iran negotiator William Burns were planning the details of the President’s outreach to Tehran with senior European diplomats earlier this spring, they discussed a possible nightmare scenario for the June 12 presidential elections in Iran. It was not, however, the prospect that incumbent Mahmoud Ahmadinejad might win, or even that he might steal the election, as many are alleging he now has, that had them worried. Quite the opposite, it was the possibility that the provocative Iranian President might lose to a moderate challenger.”
President Ahmadinejad is a hard-liner, who has repeatedly expressed both his contempt for Israel and his desire to pursue nuclear reactors. Those nuclear reactors would provide the basis for Iran to obtain nuclear weapons.
A nuclear Iran is a nightmare for almost everyone in the civilized world. How could Obama secretly want this to happen? And what does this have to do with his health care plan?
Fact III: Obama is a Fundamentalist Christian
Much was made during the election of Obama’s Muslim heritage. His middle name is Hussein, after all, and there were many who claimed that he was secretly a Muslim.
It turns out that was just a disguise. Reverend Wright, Obama’s pastor in Chicago, gave everyone a hint of the real story when his fiery rhetoric was revealed to the nation. Obama was obviously uncomfortable, and with good cause. His true religious beliefs were almost revealed!
As a Fundamentalist Christian, Obama believes deeply in the End of Days and the violent period of Tribulation that will precede the return of Jesus Christ.
So what is the one thing, the one thread that ties all of these facts together? Israel.
“The most prominent sign of the end times, however, is the nation of Israel. In 1948, Israel was recognized as a sovereign state, essentially for the first time since A.D. 70. God promised Abraham that his posterity would have Canaan as “an everlasting possession” (Genesis 17:8), and Ezekiel prophesied a physical and spiritual resuscitation of Israel (Ezekiel chapter 37). Having Israel as a nation in its own land is important in light of end times prophecy because of Israel’s prominence in eschatology (Daniel 10:14; 11:41; Revelation 11:8).”
The Conspiracy
Now we can see the motivation behind Obama’s actions. His health care plan targets the elderly. Why? Because elderly Jews have the power to protect Israel.
“According to evidence confirmed in the most recent elections, however, American Jewish voters maintain the potential to be the decisive factor in national election results.American Jews not only have a swing vote - a constituency that can be swayed in any direction - they also have a swing issue: support for Israel. The evidence shows that when the Jewish community judges a candidate to be distinctly problematic on Israel, it will desert that candidate or his party in decisive numbers.”
Many of the most politically active Jews are retirees in swing states like Florida. Under the guise of cost-reduction and end of life counseling, Obama’s health care plan will act to eliminate those Jews who vote to protect Israel from the wrath of the world.
Now we can see how Iran will play a part. The apocalyptic prophesies refer to Israel and Babylon. Babylon was the capitol of the Babylonian Empire, which included Iraq and parts of Iran! In order to begin the Tribulations, Israel must be weakened, and fall under attack. Weakening American support, combined with a nuclear Iran, could well force Israel into war.
“Former US Ambassador to the UN John Bolton told The Washington Post on Thursday that the only way left to prevent Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons is to support an Israeli military strike on the Islamic Republic.Bolton said the soft approach taken by US President Barack Obama had only hastened the Iranian nuclear threat, and that today the only options that remain are to allow Iran to obtain nuclear weapons or intervene militarily.”
All of these factors, the use of health care against elderly Jews, the support of the hard-liners in Iran, and Obama’s secret apocalyptic Christian beliefs, are all designed to bring about the End Times by starting a war in the Holy Land.
“Whether it is Sennacherib, king of Assyria; Haman, official of Persia; Hitler, leader of Nazi Germany; or Ahmadinejad, President of Iran, attempts to ultimately destroy Israel will always fail. The persecutors of Israel will come and go, but the persecution will remain until the second coming of Christ.At the same time, there will be terrible conflict in Israel during the end times. That is why the time period is known as the Tribulation, the Great Tribulation, and the “time of Jacob’s trouble” (Jeremiah 30:7).”
What could be a more terrible conflict than a nuclear attack on Israel by Iran? Clearly, if Ahmadinejad remains in power, he will use his country’s military to bring about the Tribulation. That will, of course, lead directly to Armageddon as described in the Book of Revelation.
The evidence is there. Look at the information for yourself. Don’t be deceived by those who attempt to cover-up these plans and dismiss the accumulation of real evidence as crazy! Only we can stop this plan from becoming a reality. Act now to stop Obama’s health care plan, or it will lead to Armageddon!

Priceless! Wonder when the far right will pick this conspiracy theory up as truth . . ,.
This reminds me of a 1NR argument from the 1993-94 debate season….Universal Healthcare will lead to the end of the world…Margot anyone lately?
Marcus,
Nothing beats my disad of “Stopping teen smoking leads to worldwide famine.”
How dare you mock the truth of my statements! Fools! Where will you be when Obama’s Death Squads/ the Antichrist/ the Day of Judgment comes for you and your family!

Jon, this is really interesting stuff. I have heard others say that Barak is the anti christ. One pastor I heard on the radio was certain of it. However I wonder and have always wondered if there is only one antichrist or is this the spirit of the antichrist that the bible describes in the last days.Can the anti christ really be christian, and can a christian really justifying killing millions of people to bring Christ back sooner then later? How would Christ feel about that? The guy is definately evil. There are millions of really evil sociopaths in the world and quite a few have been our presidents. I have also heard the theory over and over that war is just one big human sacrifice and that is the main reason. The U.N. sanctions put upon people kills millions of innocent women and little children from starvation and disentary and that it is all just one big giant sacrifice to satin and that they realise that is what it is. Mind blowing. It is creeping up on our porches and people do not see it it is frustrating. I do not know if Barak is the anti christ but I know he is a anti-christ. He was called the savior of the world by all of these people all over the world it was really creepy. He is a definite bully. Speak ot against him and they are at your door. He calls everyone who does not agree with him a racist. He is so smug. I saw a video of him telling a heckler he was going to beat his ass if he did not shut up when he was still on the campaign trail.You are right about one thing this guy is really really different Check out google video Barak lets heckler have it if you have not already seen it. Did you hear about hi mother in law practicing Santaria in the white house? I am fighting obama care and this hidious swine fle vaccine they are going to force on the world. I have always know that the end of days would come in my lifetime and still I had children. I am frightened for them. The bible says not to be be frightened Does this make me weak?
