Bishop Blames Gordon Brown for Persecution of Christians in Iraq

Andrew Pierce has written this interesting piece from the Telegraph in the UK.  Some might say it's a tad controversial, but as with all controversy, there is a little truth in it.

Rt Rev Graham James, the Bishop of Norwich, accused Britain and America of "religious illiteracy" about the fallout from the Allied occupation.

He said it was "tragic" that two western powers with a strong Christian tradition had contributed to the eclipse of one of the longest surviving churches in the world. The war in Iraq, he said, had led to the brutal persecution of Christians.
