Bush’s Mockery of Christ in Iraq

Yes, I am fully convinced that GOD’s Spirit did definitely reveal to me that my own President repeatedly mocks GOD’s now exalted Messiah. But my own main examples of how he specifically mocks him have been relatively narrow in their focus. I have mainly pointed to the horrible extent of the blood, death and suffering his trigger finger policies have brought to mostly Iraqi Muslims. I have sincerely attempted to expose how he depends on his policies of blood accomplishing his purposes more than looking to meaningful negotiation, have been a dreadful mockery of every value of the risen man that he publicly claims as his Messiah. The way that he has emphasized being quick to resort to violence against the Middle East in order to begin his ill conceived program of modifying its governments and forcing democratic reforms by violent means has not only been a mockery of ALLAH, but also a mockery. The latter he has accomplished by flaunting.

So I have emphasized how his devaluation of life hiding under the pretext of valuing life and supposedly valuing Democracy, have been his most flagrant ways he has mocked GOD’s now risen man of peace. Yet, he even has proclaimed in his public addresses to especially military academy audiences that it has been GOD who has specifically called him to use the mighty U.S. military to make the world safe so that the American way of life can be protected. I personally am absolutely certain that the Messiah who ALLAH raised up to be in his Holy presence, considers this President’s lack of reluctance to manipulate his sincere but powerful military in this way, as a mockery of all standards of decency.

But the terrorist policies of a growing number have given this Administration the pretext to lash out, using especially the military to supposedly both stop this terrorism with military force but also to eliminate the motivation of the terrorists to continue. Obviously this ridiculous strategy accomplishes the opposite of his stated intentions. It mostly motivates and inspires the terrorists. So the President not only mocks his own supposed Messiah but he also mocks the rather universally agreed upon psychological principals of what motivates human beings. Yet, to the twisted logic of this simplistic thinking President, his policy is working. For his bottom line is this. If American military might, mixed with CIA type intelligence can kill or imprison sufficient numbers of those ever increasing numbers of persons he perceives of as the “enemy,” the problem will eventually be solved. For if you kill or imprison sufficient numbers of the supposed enemy, there will eventually be no enemies remaining to inflict terrible loss of life on you. The idea of resisting knee jerk, superficial violent policies which inflame old enemies and inspire new enemies is too novel an approach for his mind to grasp.

However, beyond my focus on such issues as his mockery of all of humanity by worshipping at the idol of militarism and bloodshed, the Sept/Oct “Foreign Policy” definitely exposed a mocking of ALLAH and a mocking of all standards of decency that I had not previously considered as mockery. Yet, when I read this well documented article it upset me so much that I could not control my own feeling of overwhelming revulsion at the crimes of Bush appointees against Iraqis under the guise of helping them rebuild their fractured if not destroyed society. Consequently, I could only read two or three paragraphs at a time before the revulsion at the irreparable damage that Bush civilian administrators were doing in Iraq compelled me to take a break from my reading. So what this President’s hand-picked neo-con bandits and extornists did to the innocent, defenseless Iraqis was literally nauseating when we consider these inept policies’ full implications.

While worshipping at the vicious idol of partisan politics, men whose apparent only qualification for the serious responsibilities handed them, was loyalty to George Bush and the Republican party. I soon realized that the blatant crime of their interpretation of “to the victors go the spoils” was as a great a mockery of the principles valued by the Risen Messiah as the mockery of Bush promoting murder and suffering behind the guise of promoting peace.

But the death caused by Bush’s military policies cannot be separated from the death that his inept civilian administration brought to Iraq. For their incompetent far reaching policies themselves ultimately produced great death. Equally evil, their destructive contributions were invaluable in fueling and strengthening the murderous insurgency.

Only one of the many corrupt decisions which brought countless preventable deaths to Iraqis concerned the CPA’s (Coalition Provisional Authority) appointment of a Public Health Administrator for Iraq. The man who was originally appointed to this exceptionally strategic position was amazingly well qualified to provide the leadership necessary to bring needed healing to millions of precious to ALLAH-Iraqis. But with the people in Wash. D.C. having an irrational fear that they may have damaged their Republican case by appointing a qualified person who was not a certified Bush loyalist to bring benefit to the people of Iraq, within a week after Iraq’s liberation, they committed a devastating, evil crime.

They pushed out the qualified, competent health administrator so they could award this key position to a Bush party loyalist. His totally unqualified replacement was a Bush loyalist who had zero of the background, training and experience require to meet this overwhelming health needs of the devastated Iraqi people.

I myself am convinced that the deliberate decision by the CPA to force out a competent man in this key position and to replace him with an incompetent, unqualified Bush Loyalist, was a definite war crime. And since it is a war crime, it should be prosecuted at a post-war, war crimes trial. This dismissal and new appointment was most certainly both a crime against humanity as well as a serious crime against ALLAH and his Christ. The question is: How much more can this President mock all standards of decency?

Another severe mockery of Christ and the Iraqi people by Bush and his wealthy, arrogant, incompetent bureaucratics in the CPA is this. These incompetent, inexperienced, unqualified Bush loyalists are often surrounded by wise, compassionate, American military personnel who do know how to make wise decisions regarding the occupation of the vulnerable Iraqi people. But just as the civilian, Donald Rumsfeld, will not allow his much more experienced generals to make wise decisions to help the Iraqi people, the civilian CPA incompetents will not allow much more experienced, compassionate military personnel to make wise decisions. Though, it may sound inappropriate to say this, these numerous civilians forbidding the military to appropriately help the fractured, enraged people of Iraq, is a severe mockery of Christ and a total mockery of common decency that ALLAH will ultimately punish.

There is still another very significant area in which Pres. Bush publicly mocked the Risen Messiah that had nothing to do with Iraq but had much to do with people of the Muslim, Jewish and Christian faith not receiving the money that he promised them in order to mainly help the poor. It is very significant that the U.S. President would tell a bold faced lie about money to Christian leaders at a meeting with them at the White House. I stress this particular $8 (eight) billion dollar lie as being especially significant because in Acts 5, two new believers, Ananais and Sapphira, a husband and wife, were both struck dead by either a heart attack or a stroke within hours after they told a bold lie to Christian leaders about money that they had claimed to have given to the cause of helping needy believers. And the most probably less than fifty dollars that this man and wife lied about having given is definitely a whole lot less than the eight billion dollars this President boldly lied to Christian leaders about having available for them. (Please see Time Magazine, Oct 23, 06 – page 66 for a first person account by a high ranking White House official of the bold lie that blatantly mocks the Risen Christ.)

Winston Churchill said, “In time of war, truth is so precious that it must be guarded with lies.” But this flat out lie by President Bush in Carl Rove and the other official’s presence was not related to the war.

So whether this President and his special Advisor, Carl Rove realize it or not, it is not the Congress or Christian leaders who are most concerned about his lies. Rather, the book of Hebrews tells us that we must “serve GOD acceptably with reverence and fear. For our GOD is a consuming fire.” (Act 12:28, 29) So this particular Bush better begin telling the truth about many things or he may end up being a “burning Bush.”

Yes, if President George W. Bush continues to conduct himself with the sane reckless abandon as he has for over five years, there may well be another time of GOD speaking through a burning bush. But instead of His message being that Moses is to go to Firun/Pharaoh to warn him, this burning bush will be a stern warning to all of us. ALLAH will use this burning bush to say to us:

“Please closely observe this ‘burning bush’ and learn an eternal lesson. This is a person who blatantly lied to sincere people who were trying to serve their Lord, by serving the poor. This foolish President also had manipulated himself to believe that leaders can honor ALLAH through their lies.”

Significantly, the Messiah taught that it is often only little children who will boldly speak the clear truth. The classic story of “The Emperor has No Clothes” showed that it took a young child to reveal the naked truth of what the Emperor’s assistants and his own people were afraid to tell him. In that same spirit, what important message would today’s little children tell President George W. Bush? What succinct child-like proclamation would they have for a man who blatantly lied about eight (8) billion new dollars that supposedly had been set aside for “faith based groups” which would especially help the poor? What would these children say to a man who had made such a promise in order to help manipulate millions of votes knowing that he has almost no chance to keep that promise? So we will consider sort of a parable of what could occur.

“The Parable of the Children and the Lying President”

The small children looked into the eyes of the person Dick Cheney’s Fox News recently called “The Most Powerful Man on the Planet.” Then they innocently began to chant:

Liar! Liar! Your pants are on fire! Liar! Liar! Your pants are on fire! Liar! Liar! Your pants are…

Quickly their older brothers and sisters become slightly embarrassed at their directness and soon quieted them. But one of the older brothers quoted to the shocked President a penetrating verse from the Injeel’s John 1:5.

“And the LIGHT shines in the Darkness and the Darkness shall not overcome the LIGHT. Spontaneously, a very wise Muslim teen-ager standing nearby decided to also quote parts of a profound verse from the Holy Quran. She realized that this particular verse is also a penetrating commentary on ALLAH’s LIGHT illuminating darkness. Thus, all mankind and especially leaders will definitely know that they cannot get away without ALLAH knowing what they have even secretly done and that He will hold them accountable.

“ALLAH is the LIGHT of the Heavens and the Earth… ALLAH does set forth Parables for men: And ALLAH does know all things.” An Nur 24:35

But what was this President’s reply to these ominous warnings from children and from the Scriptures of two of the three great Monotheistic religions?

“I am going to stay the course no matter what even GOD thinks! Because it is only Henry Kissinger, my wife Laura and my dog who have the perspective to know that I am right. So if ALLAH could only understand my perspective He would finally realize I almost never make a mistake.”
