They may be the ones facing danger on the battlefield,
but US soldiers in Iraq are being asked to pray for
President George W Bush. 

Thousands of marines have been given a pamphlet called
"A Christian's Duty," a mini prayer book which
includes a tear-out section to be mailed to the White
House pledging the soldier who sends it in has been
praying for Bush. 

"I have committed to pray for you, your family, your
staff and our troops during this time of uncertainty
and tumult. May God's peace be your guide," says the
pledge, according to a journalist embedded with
coalition forces. 

The pamphlet, produced by a group called In Touch
Ministries, offers a daily prayer to be made for the
US president, a born-again Christian who likes to
invoke his God in speeches. 

Sunday's is "Pray that the President and his advisers
will seek God and his wisdom daily and not rely on
their own understanding". 

Monday's reads "Pray that the President and his
advisers will be strong and courageous to do what is
right regardless of critics".
