Chapter 2 Verse 190

The Iraqi are fighting the American because of the following Standing Order in the Quraan Chapter 2 Verse 190 that reads:

"AND FIGHT in God's cause against those who wage war against you but do not commit aggression for God does not love the aggressors"

The Iraqi have a clear cut case. What about the American? Could the Commander in Chief cite a Biblical verse that allows him to invade Iraq?. If it is to bring democracy to Iraq, then that is wrong because the act of invasion itself is undemocratic. If democracy means following the will of the majority, then American should leave Iraq because that's what the majority wants. Incidentally that is also what the majority of American want. Which law are the American following? The earthly law or the divine law? Invasion is like forcing one's way into somebody's house, kill the occupants and cart away their belongings. Another name for this is gangsterism or state sponsored terrorism.

The Commander in Chief may get away with it on earth but he can't get away on Judgement Day, if he believes in it. He should spend the rest of his life in repentance. The easiest way is to say sorry to the Iraqi who lost their loved ones. A public apology is good enough
