Its tradition one takes an oath on The Bible. It means you're swearing before God to the truth of your pledge to uphold your office.

I haven't read the whole article of Prager's, but doesn't the Koran allow a lie if it leads to the destruction of an enemy?

Toward the end of the epic movie “Lawrence of Arabia,” Lawrence meets with Lord Allenby and King Feisal. At one point, Allenby declares to Lawrence “You’re an extraordinary liar.”

Feisal starts to exit the room, turns and offers “He should be. He’s almost an Arab.”
