Source refs: `video:interview-7qz4kmtbvru@transcript:v1#seg-0056` - diagnosis: Jiang says Christian Zionists, especially the evangelical movement and CUFI under John Hagee, are Israel's strongest American base because they supply mass lobbying pressure rather than just billionaire money.

It is not a manually authored canon page. Freshness warning: this static topic page is bounded by the newest Jiang source listed above. For live/current events, first check /episodes/ and /interviews/ for newer event-specific readings.
