Of course you don't "deal with all countries in like manner on the same time scale." The question is, why were we so determined to go put out the 'burning wood shed' while there were, and still are, 'burning apartment buildings' in other parts of the world?

Your opinion as to what constitutes buildings and woodsheds is noted.

You say you would go to the burning building, but how come we do not do so on an international level?

Unfortunately, we are not capable of dealing with every tyrant equally at the same time. Could you show me a situation we are not dealing with in no way?

Also, by the way, the persecution of Christians in Iraq has greatly increased since the U.S. has moved in. They are rushing the borders to get out as quickly as they can. They are certainly not better off now. This is not a poll.

And how am I defining 'burning apartment buildings'? These are the places where Christians are most persecuted.

I was unaware that one of the great prerequisites to become president is ones ability to enforce their religious views on a world level. It is not, for me. The war in Iraq is justified whether or not it took place at the right time or in proper order.


God bless,
