Lethal Concoction
Chris Rodda writes about the impact of fundamentalist Christian religious predators in the US Department of Defense. Now awash with evangelizing mercenaries, the US armed forces are playing dual roles, mixing missions of church and state into a lethal concoction sure to explode in their (and our) faces. Creating a Christian crusade in Afghanistan and Iraq, as Rodda notes, is probably the worst thing the Pentagon could do to protect American military personnel (and civilians) from righteous retribution, in both occupied Muslim countries and elsewhere.
