Whatever doctrinal fumbling we may detect, it is good that the man is standing up for Israel. We've just been through a period of time when just about all of the world, and certainly the world's media was standing in a very biased attitude against Israel. Even the Internation Red Cross was spewing anti-Israel lies and propaganda.
