if Iraq believes their god is great and on their side then how come their country is all messed up?

Answer 1

Because their are different divisions of religion in their country now, they don't agree. Similar to Protestants vs. Catholics.

Answer 2

That, my friend when God departs from, not only Iraq, but, any other nation that knows not the God. As for Iraq, greed was in control of her politicians and when that happened, consequences as seen in Iraq and other nations are mere warnings to other nations. Remember, God is in control not man and when man says he does, he brings damnation to his own nation; this does not happen overnight but gradually. Whenever a nation falls, the whole world hears its "bang!".

Answer 3

With God On Our Side? Bush’s Use of Almighty God to Justify War in Iraq.


BUSH TELLS PALESTINIAN PM GOD MADE HIM ATTACK IRAQ. "God told me to strike at al Qaida and I struck them, and then he instructed me to strike at Saddam, which I did, and now I am determined to solve the problem in the Middle East. If you help me I will act, and if not, the elections will come and I will have to focus on them." --Ha'aretz, 06.25.03
With God On Their Side: How Christian Fundamentalists Trampled Science, Policy, And Democracy In George Bush's White House by Brooklyn-based radio and print journalist Esther Kaplan is an informed, hard-hitting, no nonsense investigation into the collaboration of a power-hungry President and his supporters of the fundamentalist Christian right. Delving deeply into the details of the covert conspiracies and overt deal-making for gaining political empowerment among fellow Christians in the first term of Bush's election, With God On Their Side comprehensively supports and documents the arguments presented while intricately mapping out the Bush Administration's attacks upon the democratic principle of separation of church and state. With God On Their Side is very highly recommended for students of political science, and contemporary social activists who support the continued separation between the powers of the government and the demands of the religious community.

Answer 5

They aren't as prone to make that assertion or assumption as is more characteristic of Western Christian thinking.
We say " God Bless us" Or "God bless America"
They say " God be willing"
Apparently God isn't all that pleased with either sides position at this juncture.

Answer 6

God has nothing to do with it. He does not become involved in wars because if you read your bible you will find that wars have persisted for centuries and the righteous have not always won.

That is an absurd question. That is like saying God on America's side then question why they have hurricanes, tornado's, volcanoes.
