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

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.

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