Christmas Brought To Iraq By Force
Christmas Brought To Iraq By Force
"We must be patient with the Iraqis," said Bush, seated before a Christmas tree dotted with Scottish terrier ornaments. "The holidays can be a very stressful time, especially for people not yet used to the customs. I'm sure Iraq will enjoy the happiest of holiday seasons if we show resolve and commit to making sure that they do."
God DAMN if The Onion isn't the funniest site on the net sometimes.

And with Western know-how and our can-do attitude, those rickety old churches can now be redeveloped and replaced by bigger brand-spanking new ones!
And who says we are not doing the Iraqis a favour?

Non sequiter perhaps, but the irony was quite striking. Modern day Iraq is predominately Muslim, but it also has the largest Christian minority in the Middle East. So to assume that Iraqi = Muslim is erroneous.
