    That really is something. Wow, I wonder if this was just because that’s how he was used to speaking to his underlings (and saw France as more of the same) or if it was actually because he honestly believes in trying to fulfill some weird “biblical prophecy” in the Middle East.

      Supposedly he never said this, but this rebuttal comes from a source that seems to want Daddy Bush to notice them. But considering he’s talked about divine intervention in his politics, I have no reason to doubt he’s into this shit.
