I was not trying to be disengenuous. I felt that editorializing on the cause by citing Bush's statements as a cause was out of place in a news report. Plus, as we all know, Bush went out of his way numerous times to indicate that this effort is NOT a crusade on the part of the Wwest against Islam. Instead, the writer attributed blame for this slaughter to the President for both his words and his actions. Out of place for a news story.
