Which of the following statements is true:
a) The Theocracy Brigade doesn't really exist
b) Religious extremists are dangerous only if they're Muslim
c) God told President Bush to invade Iraq
The answer, at least according to an upcoming BBC documentary, is c. (The BBC sought comment from the president but the White House declined)
Maybe God told him to defend the use of torture too.
It's almost enough to make you an atheist.
Update: After repeatedly refusing to comment before the story was released, the White House has finally denied that Bush made the remarks. By contrast, a Palestinian official insists he heard the comments but that he didn't take the words literally, only as a figurative expression of the depth of Bush's intentions. I just hope that White House doesn't whine about biased journalism. That's one of my pet peeves: when subjects of articles refuse to comment before the article is released but then whine about one-side journalism (duh!).
