The truth is that the Missionary effort by them will not be connected to Bush by the Muslims over there. Unless the press does it for them. Ah, we are back to the evil press script, are we? I expect there will be a seriously negative reaction to Graham's appearance in Iraq: (1) because he's close to the Bush administration and has said some less than pardonable things about the Muslim religion; (2) it will be almost impossible for him to separate himself from the actions of the US military; (3) his folk are likely to come under attack, require assistance from the US military, and, thus, increase the perception in two above; (4) and for that to be even worse if it becomes clear his groups are distributing humanitarian relief paid for by US taxpayers. None of that has anything to do with the media.
