Food For Thought
From James Lileks:
When the US leaves Iraq, it will have freed the Shiites, left the mosques intact, and built not one Christian church. We will import no missionaries, distribute no Bibles. The most important accomplishment of the Latter-Day Crusaders will be the destruction of a reign based on secular idolatry.
Sometimes I think the reason America is so despised in some quarters is that we fail to live up to other peoples’ worst expectations.
