On Bended Knee
Faith-Based
Deceptions
By
Rev. WILLIAM E. ALBERTS
President Bush seems to be engaged in
a messianic, Jesus-like calling "to set at liberty those
who are oppressed." (Luke 4: 19b) He continues to justify
his Administration's war of choice against non-threatening Iraq
by repeatedly playing both the democracy and the religion cards:
"Freedom is not America's gift to the world, it is God's
gift to every man and woman in the world." (Acceptance Speech
to Republican Convention Delegates, The New York Times,
Sept. 3, 2004) "Freedom" is the preferred code word
as it represents a palatable universal ideal. Substitute "Christ"
for "freedom" as "God's gift to the world"
and the same intent to dominate, rather than liberate, seems
obvious. However, unlike Jesus who chose to ride on a donkey
to set people free, Bush resorts to overwhelming military force
that kills and maims all who resist or happen to be in the path
of "the advance of liberty".
Like "freedom," "God"
is also big here. Power over others, whether for their oil or
to anoint them with "the oil of gladness" (Hebrews
1:9b) is best hidden behind a posture of piety. And what better
place to also hide other deceptions than behind the appearance
of purity, honesty, humility, devotion. President Bush's faith-based
deception is readily seen. His Administrations's pre-emptive
war began on bended knee.
At his March 6, 2003 news conference,
President Bush said, "I pray daily. I pray for guidance
and wisdom and strength. . . . I pray for peace. I pray for
peace." (The New York Times, Mar. 7, 2003). Two
weeks later American military unleashed 21,000 pound "shock
and awe" bombs on the people of Iraq. Bush's daily prayers
evidently discredited US intelligence showing no weapons of mass
destruction in Iraq and no Iraqi ties to the 9/11 attacks-the
two key arguments to justify invading Iraq, charges that were
not only wrong but knowingly false. Nor were Bush's prayers
informed by UN chief weapons inspector Hans Blix, whose team
"found no evidence of Iraq possessing weapons of mass destruction,"
and who said when Bush's war-starting "moment of truth for
the world" ended the search, "I don't think it is reasonable
to close the door to inspections after 3 _ months." (The
Boston Globe, Mar. 19, 2003)
To whom did President Bush
pray daily for peace? His former Treasury Secretary, Paul O'Neill,
said that removing Saddam Hussein from power "was topic
'A' 10 days after the inauguration-eight months before Sept.
11." ("Bush Sought 'Way' To Invade Iraq" www.cbsnews.com,
Jan. 11, 2004) And Richard Clarke, Bush's former chief advisor
on terrorism, reported that Bush seemed determined to use the
9/11 attack against America as a pretext to invade Iraq. According
to Clarke, Bush told him "to find whether Iraq did this."
And when he replied, "We looked at it . . . [and] there's
no connection," Bush insisted that he "come back with
a report that said Iraq did this." (Clarke's Take on Terror,"
www.cbsnews.com, Mar. 21, 2004)
In spite of all the evidence,
including the bi-partisan 9/11 Commission finding "no credible
evidence" of a "collaborative relationship" between
Iraq and Al-Qaeda in the attack on America, President Bush continues
to use that discredited argument to justify his administration's
selective, costly war. During the first presidential debate,
when Senator Kerry told him that he "made a mistake in invading
Iraq," Bush replied, "But the enemy attacked us . .
. and I have a solemn duty to protect the American people."
Kerry responded by pointing out the obvious: "Saddam Hussein
didn't attack us. Osama bin Laden attacked us. Al-Qaeda attacked
us." Here may be seen one reason why Bush initially resisted
the creation of the 9/11 Commission.
To whom does President Bush
pray "for wisdom and guidance and strength"? His repeated
campaign stump speeches-to uncritical, by-invitation-only audiences-lacks
truth-telling: he saw a "threat," shared it and "the
intelligence" with Congress, whose members came to the same
conclusion. He then "went to the United Nations because
this country must always try diplomacy first. . . . We sent
inspectors into his country" whom "he systematically
deceived" (www.lesun-news.com, "Text of President Bush's
Speech in Las Cruces", Aug. 26, 2004)
A recent New York Times
special report reveals that senior Bush Administration officials
withheld key intelligence from Congress: that seized aluminum
tubes destined for Iraq "were likely intended for small
artillery rockets," and not "irrefutable evidence,"
as Vice-President Cheney said, of Saddam Hussein rebuilding his
"mushroom cloud"-threatening nuclear weapons program.
(Oct. 3, 2004)
Whatever deity President Bush
prays to appears neither to inspire "wisdom" or love-especially
regarding perceived enemies. He repeatedly tells his selective
campaign stump speech audiences, "See, you can't talk sense
to the terrorists. You cannot negotiate with them. You cannot
hope for the best. You must bring them to justice." (Ibid;
www.whitehouse.gov, "President's Remarks in Canton, Ohio,"
July 31, 2004)
Ironically, President Bush
could not talk to Hans Blix about the assumed weapons of mass
destruction in Iraq. If he had during the run-up to the war,
Blix would have told him that "recent inspections proved
far-ranging and more effective than any previously in Iraq,"
that "while inspectors followed up leads from US intelligence,
I must regret we have not found . . . any smoking guns."
(The Boston Globe, Mar. 19, 2003) Bush evidently also
had difficulty "talking sense to" Richard Clarke about
"Iraq! Saddam!" when Clarke told him "there's
no connection" between Iraq and the 9/11 attack on America.
Most telling was President
Bush's reaction to the UN inspectors' pre-war search for weapons
of mass destruction in Iraq. His resistance to the inspections
led him to repeatedly say, "I'm sick and tired of games
and deceptions." (The New York Times, Jan. 15, 2003).
"How much time do we need to see clearly that he is not
disarming." (The New York Times, Jan. 22, 2003)
"No doubt he will play a last-minute game of deception.
The game is over." (The New York Times, Feb. 7,
2003). Saddam Hussein had stated, "As I tell you, and have
said on many occasions before, that there are no weapons of mass
destruction in Iraq, whatsoever." ("60 Minutes II,"
CBS, Feb. 5, 2003) The final report on Iraq's weapons of mass
destruction prepared by Charles A. Duelfer, America's chief weapons
inspector for Iraq, is now in: "Iraq had destroyed its illicit
weapons stockpile within months after the Persian Gulf War of
1991, and its ability to produce such weapons had significantly
eroded by the time of the American invasion in 2003." (The
New York Times, Oct. 7, 2004). Bush constantly accused Hussein
of the very deception he was practicing-and continues to practice
with his faith-based posturing.
So-called "terrorists,"
Hans Blix, and Richard Clarke are not the only persons President
Bush evidently "can't talk sense to." The deity to
whom he prays apparently led him not into the United Nations,
but delivered him from the French, the Germans, the Russians,
the Chinese and the leaders of other countries. He turned off
many by the unilateralism underlying his call to arms in the
fight of good against evil: "You're either with us or with
the terrorists."
There seems to be a whole host
of people President Bush has difficulty "talking sense to."
During a 2000 presidential campaign debate, when asked to name
the political philosopher or thinker with whom he most identified,
he answered, "Christ, because he changed my heart."
When the moderator followed up with, "I think the viewer
would like to know more on how he changed your life," Bush
replied, "Well, if they don't know, it's going to be hard
to explain." It was. Bush repeated, "Ah, when you
turn your heart and your life over to Christ, when you accept
Christ as a saviour, it changes your heart, it changes your life.
And that's what happened to me." Bush's inability or refusal
to "talk sense" to people extends far beyond so-called
"terrorists."
A basic threat to our security
is President Bush repeatedly telling us Americans that "you
can't talk sense to the terrorists." In declaring his global
war "to rid this world of evil and terror," he repeatedly
demonizes his administration's selected enemies, who are stripped
of their humanity by being constantly called "evildoers,"
"the evil ones," "killers," "terrorists."
("George W. Bush's insights on evil," www.irregulartimes.com
Oct. 5, 2004) Here a child, woman, older man, or another civilian
caught in the onslaught of "liberation" is able to
be counted as a dead "insurgent." Here there is Abu
Ghraib Prison. Here there is fostered a dehumanizing culture
of death which prizes the presidential candidate who can best
"hunt down and kill the terrorists." Here there is
no need for "the greatest nation on the face of the earth"
to engage in soul-searching about its foreign policy, no need
to take the log out of its own eye, as Jesus taught, so that
its people may see clearly enough to experience, rather than
interpret, the reality of another country.
To whom does President Bush
pray? It is not believed to be about prayer but about global
domination masked as divine intervention. It is about conquest
and exploitation in the name of "freedom." It is about
the "transfer of power" to selective Iraqis secretly
completed, with the "gift" of "freedom"
now in Iraq-wrapped in US occupation. It is about resisting
"insurgents" being ground under to pave the way for
an election-at the point of a gun. It is about resistance to
occupation driven by nationalistic love of country and not about
"terrorists" who "hate our success [and] our liberty."
(Ibid.)
It is not assumed to be about
"the ways of Providence" but about arrogance disguised
as "moral clarity." It is about instilling fear to
control us and stay in power under the pretext of providing security
to protect us. It is about conformity parading as patriotism.
If "the world is better off without Saddam Hussein in power,"
does that mean the world is better off without Kenneth A. Milton?
Without Jose A. Perez? Without Samuel R. Bowen? And is the
world better off without all those other American sons and daughters
being killed--and maimed-- in Iraq?
Faith-based deception is believed
to be about George W. Bush and his administration and not about
"the loving God behind all of life and all of history."
(The New York Times, Jan. 21, 2003). A loving God talks
to everyone, wants his sun to shine "on the evil and on
the good," rather than setting them warring against each
other. A loving God desires the rain to descend on and refresh
"the just and the unjust," not have them imposing irreconcilable,
demonizing differences between each other. A loving God "is
kind to the ungrateful and the wicked," not only inspires
love of one's neighbor as oneself, but love of one's enemies
as well. (Matthew 5: 43-48; 22:35-40; Luke 6:31-36) Peace is
not just about "bringing terrorists to justice" but
about bringing justice to those terrorized by poverty and domination.
