To the Editor: After the attacks of 9/11/01, the governments and peoples of Saudi Arabia, Iran and Pakistan lined up to join us in a coalition to eliminate the threat from Al Qaeda. President Bush alienated these crucial allies with a single word, when he called for "crusade". Now in 2008, he has taken on the mantle of the Inquisition, willing to visit torture and death on the body for the sake of the immortal soul. Spare us. We don't have time for this president to work his way through every one of the Church's mistakes of the last two millenia.Barry Levine1142 Brown AveLafayette, CA 94549
