As far as I know, it's Mr. Bush who is the one who says he does what God
tells him is right, including invading Iraq. And he's the one who
characterized the whole enterprise as a Crusade, not me. It's his
supporters I have heard claiming that all Muslims are murderers who are bent
on killing every one of us, and we are therefore justified in killing every
one of them we can get first.
