Letter to Bill Moyers

Dear Bekki:

Dear MRFF,

Before I received your e-mail, I wrote the following to Bill Moyers in the hope that he might address this on his program. Glad to hear that the Washington Post will publish something on it twice a month.

“The president extending apologies on the burning of the Korans is hypocritical. As commander-in-chief of the armed forces he should do something about Christian fundamentalists in the Air Force Academy usurping the Establishment Clause of the U.S. Constitution by proseltyzing. When receiving the Giraffe award for one willing to stick one’s neck out for the common good, Mikey Weinstein of the Military Religious Freedom Foundation told of a soldier who had contacted him about how he befriended an Iraqi boy whose best friend had been blown up by a bomb and comfort him. A few days later he found him at the site of the bombing screaming. When he asked him what had happened, the boy handed him a leaflet. It showed Muslims burning in hell. When the soldier asked where he had gotten the leaflet, the boy pointed to the commander of the brigade. Mickey’s latest book, “No Snowflake in an Avalanche” reveals his work in not allowing the Constitution to be subverted, and the expense and toll taken on his family.

“It would be good if someone in media would help shed some light on what is happening. Mikey has been nominated four times, I believe, for the Nobel prize, but it appears to me that he is the only one waging a war against this despicable practice.

Respectfully,
