United States News Title: Richard Holbrooke, RIH On his deathbed in Washington, Richard Holbrooke allegedly told his Pakistani surgeon, “You’ ve got to stop this war in Afghanistan.” Perhaps the story is true. After all, Holbrooke, though one of the greatest liars in public life, must have told the truth occasionally and his words may even have been delivered accurately by the class of journalists who cannot give us a sports score without making a politically correct comment on race, sex, or sexual orientation. Whatever Holbrooke might have said on the way to his reward, the high points of his career were marked by his ruthless advocacy of war and slaughter. In the Former Yugoslavia he championed the rights of the bloodthirsty Bosnian Muslims and boasted of showing them how to target their guns–a boast he later denied, naturally. He was one of the architects of a US foreign policy that has targeted Christians around the world for extinction–in Bosnia, in Kosovo, and in Iraq, where the last remnants of an ancient Christian community are being extirpated even as I write. Some years ago, I asked some Zionist Evangelicals about the wisdom of a policy that slaughtered Christians in order to help the Jewish state. “Iraqis? They’re not Christians.” They said the same thing of the Palestinian Christians. So the oldest Christian communities in the world are not Christian, only some Zionist sect invented out of thin air and a misreading of Scripture in the 19th century! But this is America, where new trumps old, and cheap trumps good every time. I would have thought that from a Protestant perspective, anyone who accepted Christ and Him crucified as God, Lord, and Savior could be given some credit for being a Christian, that only Catholics (and then the least educated and most prejudiced) were bigoted enough to deny the term Christian to the sects. Richard Baxter’s (and C.S. Lewis’s “mere Christianity”) may be rather a thin gruel, but it is enough to sustain a man in his faith. The Zionist and Republican Christians who supported the anti-Christian policies of the past three presidents are enemies to the religion they claim to profess. Back in Pakistan, our ally in the Crusade to liberate Afghan women from their fathers and husbands, a Christian woman has been condemned to death for blasphemy. Apparently, when Muslim co-workers refused to drink water she she had brought and insulted her religion, the poor woman had responded in kind. Now there are mobs of Muslims demonstrating and demanding her head. The United States is engaged in a Holy War, a Zionist Jihad to destroy Christianity. This policy has succeeded in killing and subjugating Christian Serbs, Iraqis, Pakistanis, and any other Christian population that gets in the way of the agenda. These are the fruits of the policies of Richard Holbrooke and Madeline Albright, and Bill Clinton, of George Bush, Condaleeza Rice, and Don Rumsfeld, of Barack Obama and Hilary Clinton. May God have mercy on their souls; I know I don’t.
