Former President George W. Bush did not mince words Wednesday when describing the recent actions of Islamic radicals as he addressed an audience at the University of Mary Hardin—Baylor.
“Evil is real,” Bush said during a question and answer session that followed prepared remarks, according to KTBC-TV.
“There is no light grey,” the former president added. “Murdering innocent people to move a political point of view has been, is and always will be evil.”
