-- They played and sang Armored Christian Soldiers--a hymn we wouldn't be allowed to play. --

Sung to the same tune as Onward Christian Soldiers?

You’re right, of course...I misremembered the name! But my point is that it would be considered way too politically incorrect to play such a hymn after an attack from the ‘religion of peace’. Might make them mad. Remember that GWB had to walk back his use of the word ‘crusade’ within days of 9/11.

I was struck by the fact that the English weren’t afraid to use the hymn.

Thanks for that correction. I assumed it was humor without the snark tag.
