Land letter — copyright violation
Okay, this article has been created again.

The Land letter is a letter to President George W. Bush from a prominent group of American Evangelical Christians. It is an important letter because it gives a theological and philosophical backing for the 2003 Invasion of Iraq. It is an original source text that helped to justify the invasion of Iraq in the minds of many American Christians.

Recently I had significant difficulty in finding the text of this article on line. Given the Letter's importance, I decided to copy and paste the letter into Wikisource again to ensure an up-to-date link from the original Wikipedia article.

 * Hi. I have deleted the "Land Letter" again as there is no evidence that the letter has been released to the public domain with a licence that is compatible with Wikisource's requirements, see WS:WWI and Help:Copyright.  If you are able to demonstrate that the letter is in the public domain and able to be reproduced, then we can recover the work from the deletion box. — billinghurst  sDrewth  07:14, 1 June 2016 (UTC)


 * Would the fact that the letter was received by President George Bush make his copy of the text the property of the Federal Government and thus without copyright? --One Salient Oversight (talk) 09:42, 1 June 2016 (UTC)

You need to state the source for this and do some proof-reading! As it happens you've got the wrong Hodge and missed out some paragraphs. And then someone went and turned your piece into a printed book! PeterR2 (talk) 17:04, 23 October 2019 (UTC)
