Many Jews in Israel may be secular today, I'll just take your word on that, but I think you'd be hard pressed to argue the Zionists that established Israel were. I doubt seriously that the British government in the 1940s were run by atheists. However, you can feel free to present your evidence for your claim and I'll consider it.
The connection today to fundy end-timers in America and the more hard-line elements of Israel can't be denied and the motive is clear.

And he has a new definition of "forever". And here I thought that "forever" meant "from this time forward" but it appears he thinks there can be 2,500 year gap in the middle and the prophecy still applies.
"Forever with a few millennial breaks here and there".
