Every Jew who believes they have a friend in the evangelical advocates of Israel needs to watch this video. They earnestly wish to see Jews who do not covert incinerated in Jesus's cleansing fire (Tom DeLay is on camera hoping it happens "tomorrow"). They believe the politician who "forces" a peace treaty in the Middle East is for that very reason the Beast prophesied in Revelation.As you watch this video, ask yourself how much evidence-based rationality you see displayed there.

This is a cult ready to send America to war in order to gain entry to Heaven for themselves. Most member of the cult are, of course, too old to go to war themselves. But they need the war for them to go to Heaven.
The rest of us are expendable. They aren't going to miss their ticket to heaven, and if the rest of us won't join them, then we are their cannon fodder. We pay for their ticket. Since their God has preordained that, they aren't going to ask us, either. They are just going to do what they can to start the war so they can get their ride to Heaven.
Not very nice people, are they?
