Robert "Mullah" Fisk argues in his latest column that....
Amid the crack of gunfire and the tracer streaking across the river, and the huge oil fires that the Iraqis lit to give them cover to retreat, one had to look away to the great river bridges further north, into the pale green waters of that most ancient of rivers to realise that a Western army on a moral crusade had broken through to the heart of an Arab city for the first time since General Allenby marched into Jerusalem in 1918. But Allenby walked into Jerusalem on foot, in reverence for Christ's birthplace and yesterday's American thrust into Baghdad had neither humility nor honour about it.
Funny... I thought Jesus was born in Bethlehem. Must be my faulty education.

You know? I think he may have a point. We aren't humiliated and we acknowledge that Baghdad is no place to honor much.

Where in the Bible did it say Christ ever went to Baghdad? I musta missed that.
