Jesus might or might not have gone to Iraq to preach. If he did, he wouldn't organize an insurection, of this I'm fairly sure.
Consider the situation of Israel when Jesus was walking the earth. He gathered the people, but did not preach revolution against the Romans, which is what many Israelis wanted. However we people are rather myopic in spiritual matters, while Jesus had the long view. While we are concerned with this short life on earth, Jesus had the connection to eternity.
The eternal view is to spend your life in service to God, because He can get us out of this mess. The Israeli view put their faith in what they could achieve with the forces they could understand, what force they could muster. They wanted Jesus to muster that force to overthrow the Romans. When Jesus didn't do this, they became disolusioned and chose a thief tp be set free instead.
So, back to the point. I don't see Jesus overthrowing Saddam, as it was with Caesar. Loose quote: Give unto Ceasar that which is Caesar's...
Government is going to be on your back... as it is in the nature of people to seek power, and those in power to seek greater power. So, replacing Ceasar just brings on the next *******. Getting saved, that's forever...

C'mon, Drake. A 33 year-old Jew who lives with his parents and walks around with twelve other guys?
Do you need a diagram or something?
