I just finished listening to Joy Cardin's interview with Pat Buchanan on WPR. He is calling a spade a spade as far as the war in Iraq is concerned, and the potential for war with Iran. He has declared that our reasons for going into Iraq were wrong, many have died needlessly, and that we as Americans are full of ourselves if we think it's our job to save the world. If Bush continues to push toward war with Iran, and the American people don't stop him, then we will face the judgment we deserve. You don't go to war based on a perceived threat, you go to war to avenge acts of wickedness. George W. Bush, unless he repents, will have the blood of many Americans and many more Iraqis on his hands. So will Congress.
Guliani has the neocons behind him - to put him in the White House would be foolishness indeed.
And how has this affected Iraqi Christians? Brother Andrew says that conditions for Christians there are worse than they have ever been, and they are so dangerous that he can't go into detail lest they be persecuted even further. Samaritan's Purse claims that the number of Christians in Iraq have decreased by over 150,000. You would think that a Christian administration would be more careful about guarding what little Light was in the nation of Iraq. Who is the Light of the World anyway? It is Jesus, not American democracy. Where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom. We have terribly squandered what could have been a history-changing eight years by caving into hubris and humanism. Proverbs 24:6 speaks of there being victory in the multitude of counsel. This verse is referring to war, and the United States has failed to humbly seek out needed counsel. "Victory" will not follow.
