Which is just weird. There is nothing in their holy book like that, they just made it up and now it drives foreign policy.

"weird" is a polite term for it. "crazy" is more like it.

In whose holy book? Plenty of New Testament Biblical exegesis about the so-called "end times" involves things that could be interpreted as involving modern-day Israel (for example, the Jewish people returning to their homelands).

So: Jewish holy book? You're correct. Christian holy book? Answer is dependent on the sect of Christianity you are talking about.
