Westboro Baptist Church=Left Wing Cult?

Just for the record, there's a sequel to the Louis Theroux documentary:

One highlight I found interesting starts 36 minutes in, and it strikes me on the fact that the WBC's plans for the future seem to hinge on some of the most insane bullshit.
Here is their plan for what they expected in the wake of the supreme court ruling.
* The Supreme Court would side with them.
This actually happened: See Snyder v. Phelps
* The people will rise up against them and demand that the WBC leave the country.
OK; let's set aside the fact that this hasn't happened. Demanding that someone leave the country can only work if they're citizens of another country (like Polanski or Chaplin). To make matters worse, every time I've heard of the WBC going to another country, they've been either refused entry or threatened with arrest if they returned. And to quote RationalWiki:

Banishment... is not a good idea. This is because other people don't want your criminals either. Can you imagine the diplomatic fallout if one of our criminals ended up somewhere else and committed crimes? (And they would probably be immediately banished by whichever state they went to, leading them to become homeless nomads.) Banishment relies on a sense of a "wild space" that, in most of the world, doesn't really exist anymore. Except for certain parts of the Middle East and Central Asia, there are no more "tribal lands" that people can just escape to. Even Mexico has become a fully functioning state (except perhaps in Oaxaca--and good luck trying to disappear to there!) This is an archaic idea with no place in the modern world.

What might have happened is lynching, which is still technically frowned upon, and, even if it came to pass, it would have been at an unprecedented level; how many times has there been a lynching of 75 people (and, as of December 2012, that's how many people were there in the church) executed successfully in one go?
* Ideally, they'll go to Israel, specifically Jerusalem
Where do I start with this? Well, first off, given that every time I've heard of them going abroad, they've either been threatened with arrest if they returned (Canada), or flat-out denied entry (The UK), I can't see them being able to go on this. In fact, given that they've become increasingly anti-semitic, and even went so far as to film a video that's visible about 8 minutes into the special rejoicing at the prospect of impending doom for Israel, can anyone see the Jewish Homeland even allowing them entry? The only possible scenario that would end with them living in Jerusalem is them going to East Jerusalem, which is technically under control of the West Bank of Palestine, and who'd bet that they'd last long there?
* 144,000 Jews will convert to Christianity and the WBC'll ally with them.
Note: when WBC means Christianity, they mean that they consider themselves the only true Christians. In the WBC's 57 years of existence, and in the 21 years they've been picketing, it seems like they've only amassed less than .1% of the number they're expecting. And, meanwhile they've alienated far more than that number, and I'm sure that, if anything, the Jews may be the WBC's #2 most hated group; and they expect that they'll convert en masse, and increase the WBC's numbers almost 2000-fold! Oh, and bonus points, they expect that these Jews will accept responsibility for killing Christ, even though even if the Jews had the authority to commit execution in the time of Christ (and it's not likely that they did), they wouldn't have crucified him because it's far too bloody for Jewish tastes.

So, I'm sure many people would agree with me on this: if your "Bibilcal Prophecy" hinges on six impossible things happening before breakfast, you're doing it wrong.
