Saddam's Legacy

Disturbing videos. Please use discretion.





Lord Jesus Christ, Son of the Living God, have mercy, and forgive us.

As an Orthodox Christian, I sometimes wonder how to reconcile my involvement in Desert Storm, where the US military essentially annihilated the Iraqi forces. Then I see videos like these and I reconsider. While there is no honor in killing other people, there is no shame in taking up arms and standing between the tyrant and his intended victim.

NG, thank you for stopping by.

The tension between following Christ and taking up arms is indeed great. I appreciate your thoughtful comment.
