   The Strong Delusion belongs to people who blame Israel   
   for being attacked, and blame Israel for fighting back   
   rather than just allowing themselves to be destroyed.   
   Apparently Israel is supposed to take a certain amount   
   of terrorist attacks, but only respond "proportionally".   
      
   And then wait until the NEXT terrorist attack, and then   
   again respond "proportionally". Then those who have the   
   Strong Delusion say it's a "tit-for-tat", as if Israel   
   starts it one time, and then the TERRORISTS start it   
   the next time, and so on and so on. What those with the   
   Strong Delusion don't understand is that it's ALWAYS   
   the TERRORISTS who start it, every single time.   
      
   So I don't blame Netanyahu for wanting to end this   
   so-called "tit-for-tat" once and for all. I stand by   
   Israel, because I believe the Bible -- and the day   
   is coming when Jesus will once again return to this   
   planet, and the place he will arrive is in Israel.

   Name someone of real faith, and show me his or her   
   words (to which you refer).

   I have. So, you're not going to tell me about the   
   "legitimate religious stance" to which you referred,   
   implying that I don't have a "legitimate religious   
   stance"? The context of your remark was in response   
   to Doc mentioning the Rapture. Is that what it was,   
   to which you referred?
