I've never heard even the first good thing about the leader of Iraq but I've got to thank him. His highly publicised idiocy helped me to talk to my JW friend. I got the idea after I watched him try to turn his whole mess into a religious matter, a holy war, then when he accused the UN of spying I figured it was worth a shot. I complained how he manipulated the people of Iraq with propaganda and deceit...I never mentioned the WTS but the parallels were no doubt recognized.
We have had conversations previous where I was able to describe methods of defense when guilt exists, burden of proof etc, so my friend made the connection...though I didn't pursue it further. I've learned to be satisfied with small steps.
YEA TEAM!
