This video is worth watching as the nation debates whether the 44th president of the United States harbors some sort of bias that gives terrorists a pass just because they purport to be of the Islamic faith.
Listen to the words spoken here by the 43rd president, George W. Bush, just six days after the 9/11 attacks.
He quotes the Quran, noting that acts of evil will be the end of those who commit those acts.
President Bush refers to Islam as a great religion, that its tenets condemn violence committed against innocent victims.
Where was the outcry then as the president sought to inform the nation that our anger should not be directed at peaceful Muslims, those who pay their taxes and who go about their business daily without regard to harming other human beings?
Yet we keep hearing from those who suggest that President Bush’s successor, Barack Obama, harbors sympathies to those who have done us harm.
Listen carefully to the words spoken on the video.
