My support of Israel is not based in theology but in politics. I would like to see the world organized by nations whose leaders are democratically elected. The enemies of Israel are many, but I do not see enemies who have maintained their national sovereignity and have democratically elected leadership. I do believe that Israel has enemies in the EU, but those countries have ceded most of their sovereignity by their membership in the EU. How many countries in the world are nationalistic and have democratically elected leadership? The truth is that the supporters of Israel do not do so out of blind theological zealotry as the author implies, that distinction better belongs to a major portion of Israel's enemies.

And don't forget we share common enemies with Israel in the Middle East, like those who blow up buildings full of innocent victims here and in Israel.
