In the days following World War II, when the economic strength and power of America was all that stood between the world and the return to the dark ages, Pope Pius XII said, The American people have a great genius for splendid and unselfish actions. Into the hands of America God has placed the destinies of an afflicted mankind. Once again, America must lead the rest of the civilized world in cleansing the world of evil.

Not to mention, I frequently find these same types of people claiming this is God's retribution on us, while at the same time, out of the other side of their mouth, talking about how God really has it in store for Israel's enemies (namely, Palestinians). Well, which is it? Does God regularly bomb Israel's best and only legitimate friend in the world?
