In the days surrounding the U.S. invasion of Iraq, cover sheets…began adorning top-secret intelligence briefings produced by Donald Rumsfeld’s Pentagon. The sheets juxtaposed war images with inspirational Bible quotes and were delivered by Rumsfeld himself to the White House, where they were read by the man who, just after September 11, referred to America’s war on terror as a “Crusade.”
But Muslims would have to be crazy to think that there was any religious motivation behind any of this. It’s not like any U.S. generals referred to Allah as an idol or anything like that.
