A valid argument to make about the Dubya administration

A writer named John Zmirak, though he has an iffy view of Saddam, does make some interesting points about Dubya:
“The Bush administration showed absolutely zero concern for the Christian communities of Iraq,” said Zmirak. “And we’re not talking five or six hundred people; 1.3 million Christians lived in Iraq when the Iraq War started, and they have lived there for two thousand years. They were some of the earliest Christian communities in the world. Way before there were Catholics in Rome, or before Constantinople existed, there were Christians in Iraq.”

“Seventy-five to eighty percent of [Iraq’s Christian communities] were ethnically cleansed while George Bush was president, while he was commander-in-chief, while he ruled that country as absolutely as Kim Jong-un rules North Korea. He didn’t care,” Zmirak stated.
And that's but one explanation why in retrospect, Bush was an embarrassment whom the right should not be sugarcoating in every way. He owes an apology for failing to protect Christians and other persecuted minorities in Iraq and to ensure they'd be as safe as they seemingly were under Saddam, though realistically, it's not certain they truly were. We have to hope Donald Trump can make the vital improvements necessary to ensure Christians in Iraq will be able to regain safety once more.

About me

  • I'm Avi Green
  • From Jerusalem, Israel
  • I was born in Pennsylvania in 1974, and moved to Israel in 1983. I also enjoyed reading a lot of comics when I was young, the first being Fantastic Four. I maintain a strong belief in the public's right to knowledge and accuracy in facts. I like to think of myself as a conservative-style version of Clark Kent. I don't expect to be perfect at the job, but I do my best.
