>One of his four phones rings. He glances at the incoming number, grunts and gives it to someone to answer.
>"What about the commandment: Thou shalt not kill?" I ask.
>"You are a Christian?" Kildani asks, somewhat doubtfully.
>"Church of England," I offer.
>Kildani nods as if that explains it.
>"He's a Protestant," someone says with a note of disapproval. "Sectarianism runs deep in Iraq," I think. But of course I don't say that.
>Kildani turns to me again: "We have to fight. We have to defend ourselves."
>And then, to my surprise, he adds: "Jesus himself told us that if you don't have a sword you should go out and buy one."
>I cast my mind back to my schooldays of Bible study but can't remember Jesus telling people to arm themselves.
>"Did he really say that?"
>"It's in the Bible," Kildani insists.
>"Matthew," one man says. "Luke," says another. "Matthew and Luke," they both say. I looked doubtful.
>Kildani glances over to one of his assistants who is playing a game on his phone.
>"Find it!" he orders.
>The young man with the phone walks over to me. He has the verse on his screen in Arabic.
>It is Luke chapter 22, verse 36: "If you have a purse, take it, and also a bag; and if you don't have a sword, sell your cloak and buy one."

Why do journalists never even have the most basic understanding of what they're reporting on? Also for Templar roleplayers you have an actual organisation to go join now.
