Quote of the Day: Clinton on the Middle East

Quoth Bill Clinton recently:
"The two great tragedies in modern Middle Eastern politics, which make you wonder if God wants Middle East peace or not, were [Yitzhak] Rabin's assassination and [Ariel] Sharon's stroke."
Oh, come on, Bubba!  So God doesn't want Middle East peace?  But I thought Jesus supported Abbas's UN bid for a Palestinian state!  Of course, this discussion so far only covers 2 of the 3 members of the Trinity.  No word yet on what the Holy Spirit thinks.  I repeat my disdain for people who muddy up foreign policy by invoking religion, especially where it's completely unnecessary and irrelevant.
