Bush said he had taken the war to liberate the Philippines as his model. Both wars were inspired from heaven. Bush disclosed that God had ordered him to act as he did. And a century beforehand, President William McKinley also heard the voice from the Great Beyond: “God told me that we could not leave the Filipinos to themselves. They were unfit for self-government. There was nothing left for us to do but to take them all, and to educate them, and uplift and civilize and Christianize them.” Thus the Philippines were liberated from the Filipino threat, and along the way the United States also saved Cuba, Puerto Rico, Honduras, Colombia, Panama, Dominican Republic, Hawaii, Guam, Samoa . . . At the time, writer Ambrose Bierce revealed: “War is God’s way of teaching us geography.” And his colleague Mark Twain, leader of the Anti-Imperialist League, designed a new flag for the nation, featuring little skulls in place of stars. General Frederick Funston suggested Twain ought to be hanged for treason. Tom Sawyer and Huck Finn defended their father.”", "creator": { "@type": "Person", "name": "Eduardo Galeano" }, "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/eduardo-galeano/mark-twain-some-months-after-invading-iraq-president-george-w-bush/", "image": { "@type": "ImageObject", "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/10a/eduardo-galeano-1015_dominican-republic_mark-twain-some-months-after-invading-ir_700863.png", "contentUrl": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/10a/eduardo-galeano-1015_dominican-republic_mark-twain-some-months-after-invading-ir_700863.png", "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/10a/eduardo-galeano-1015_dominican-republic_mark-twain-some-months-after-invading-ir_700863.png", "width": 1080, "height": 1080, "caption": "“MARK TWAIN Some months after invading Iraq, President George W.
