Agreed.
And there is another delusion which the SNP have and that is they believe that by separating militarily from the UK then Scotland will enter a blissful period of Caledonian Isolationism from the world's conflicts.

God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
Courage to change the things I can,
And wisdom to know the difference.
