Part of the Blame America First Crowd


From the Washington Times Inside the Beltway Column. That was former Secretary of State Madeleine K. Albright stopping by the Islamic Center of America in Dearborn, Mich., this week to meet with spiritual leader Imam Qazwini. She was in the Detroit suburb to promote her new book, "The Mighty and the Almighty: Reflections on America, God and World Affairs." The two are said to have discussed everything from U.S. foreign policy to concerns of the Muslim community here at home, with Mr. Qazwini calling attention to polls showing increasing numbers of Americans harboring negative views of Islam. Mrs. Albright responded that Americans need a better understanding of the world's religions. And toward that goal, the leader presented her with a copy of the Koran. The former secretary's book, released this month, examines religious fundamentalism, including the role it may have played leading up to the invasion of Iraq, and the current nuclear standoff with Iran. A book summary says Mrs. Albright, a devout Catholic with Jewish roots, "looks critically at President Bush, an evangelical Christian who invokes God in the name of fighting 'evil.' " It appears that Bill Clinton's Secretary of State doesn't have a problem with Al-Qaida killing innocent people in the name of ALLAH!!!
