Bush’s faith in the rightness of his strategy in the broader war is deep-seated. It is a product of faith.
Meaning of the quote
This quote suggests that former U.S. President George W. Bush strongly believed his overall war strategy was the right thing to do, even if others disagreed. His belief came from his personal faith and values, not just facts or logic. In other words, Bush's decisions were guided more by his personal beliefs than objective evidence.
