A madman runs the United States of America. I don't normally like to make blanket assertions like that, but the latest news byte on Dubya is more of his statements that he's on a mission from God. In 2003 he told a delegation of Palestinians the following:

I am driven with a mission from God. God would tell me, 'George go and fight these terrorists in Afghanistan'. And I did. And then God would tell me 'George, go and end the tyranny in Iraq'. And I did... And now, again, I feel God's words coming to me, 'Go get the Palestinians their state and get the Israelis their security, and get peace in the Middle East'. And, by God, I'm gonna do it.

Generally, I don't care what people believe. If they want to believe in Jesus or Mohammed or Yahweh or Buddha or Brahma... that's fine. But if you think that you can justify violence by saying, "God told me to do it", then you are insane. You are insane and you are a blasphemer. This is coming from someone who doesn't prescribe to religion. Unless you're a prophet or the son of God you're got no right to make such statements; and I doubt very much that the president of the United States is either of those things.
