Bush: "God inspired me to hit Al Queda...and...Saddam...": FASCISM |
|

Christian fascism to be exact...check this out... <snip> Loop Fans will recall that the Palestinian kerfuffle began in June 2003, when an Israeli paper reported that former Palestinian prime minister Mahmoud Abbas said Bush told the Palestinian leaders: "God told me to strike at al Qaeda and I struck them, and then he instructed me to strike at Saddam Hussein, which I did."
The White House declined to clarify, but the Israeli reporter at the time read what he said were the Palestinians' minutes of the meeting to an Arabic-speaking colleague here. Our colleague's translation was different: "God inspired me to hit al Qaeda, and so I hit it. And I had the inspiration to hit Saddam, and so I hit him."
Substantially different, we felt. Moreover, this is Abbas's account in Arabic of what Bush said in English, written down by a note-taker in Arabic and then put back into English.
The newest uproar was sparked by a BBC documentary airing this week in which Palestinian negotiator Nabil Shaath says Bush said during that meeting that he was "driven with a mission from God."
"President Bush said to all of us: 'I'm driven with a mission from God. God would tell me, George, go and fight those terrorists in Afghanistan. And I did, and then God would tell me, George, go and end the tyranny in Iraq. . . . And I did." This sounds much like the original Haaretz version. Bush then allegedly said God had now told him to "go get the Palestinians their state."Full article at http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2005/10/13/AR2005101301688.html?referrer=email

3. It's the idea that God personally speaks to * that is frightening... |
|
as if he's some kind of king or prophet. As if he has received a special revelation from God that we have to bow down to him and worship him. All part of the clever deception that * has pushed onto the gullible sheeple...luckily many are waking up and becoming aware of *'s tricks.
And yes, it does appear that * is quite a mental case in this regard.
