Sada is guinuinely enthusiastic
Reader comment on item: Pipes calls war a success
in response to reader comment: I'm afraid Iraqi General Georges Sada is telling American Christians what they want to hear

Submitted by Lamarr Stevens (United States), Nov 5, 2007 at 14:54

I don't think he's part of a dog-and-pony show - he is just enthusiastic about his roots and his faith - the area was at one time Christian, so he believes it can come back to that.

I haven't heard him speak, but I adore the enthusiasm in the book. I think he is naive, doesn't understand America and all our baggage - but he does know what he's expereienced and feels God's call.

I came across this looking for verification of his credentials, though. I can't imagine he's making anything up, as he seems to wear everything on his sleeve - his experiences and his...well... enthusiasm!

Praying for the success of God's uses for him...
