November 07, 2008Michael Gerson's Iraq Miracle
In the Washington Post, former Bush speechwriter Michael Gerson channels the divine in an effort to absolve the Bush administration of any harsh judgment that history may render on the Iraq war. That's because Iraq, he writes, is on the verge of a "miraculous peace."
Indeed. Here are some recent Iraq-related miracles headlines from the New York Times:
"Sadr Followers Reject Security Pact"
"Blast Kills 3 in Baghdad"
"Bombs Kill 15 as Violence Rises in Baghdad"
"Rejection of Oil Law and Move to Create Tribal Councils Add to Tensions With Kurds"
Well, God does work in mysterious ways.
