Did any of Christ’s Apostles ever say: “This area is too dangerous for Christians. We had better get out and stay out?”
Christ have Mercy. St. Michael the Archangel, pray for them.
According to his new book, George Bush is real proud of what he accomplished in Iraq! I wonder if he’s be as proud if it were Baptists or some brand of Calvinist those Mohammedans were killing over there?
Some will blame GWBush for this.
Why? Did he chose the course, set the course, encourage the course, support the course that members of sectarian militias among the Iraqis chose to take?
No, he didn’t.
The fall of Saddam gave the people of Iraq an opportunity.
What they chose to do with it was not predestined, or inevitable.
Responsibility for these kind of outcomes rests with the Iraqi people; period.
