Paul Bremer as Pilate, 1
Today is Ash Wednesday, the day that Mel Gibson’s movie The Passion of The Christ opened at theatres. (I noticed a student with a smudge on her forehead and almost called her attention to it–then I caught myself!)
I am waiting for all the political bloggers to leap on this:
Paul Bremer, US administrator in Iraq = Pontius Pilate?
The Ayatolla al-Sistani = the Jewish high priest Caiphas?
Rampaging mobs of followers of an Abrahamc religion = rampaging mobs of followers of an Abrahamic religion?
