Chris Kyle's Widow Says Husband Was Christian, 'Didn't Love War'

The wife of deceased U.S. Navy SEAL Chris Kyle has spoken out in defense of her late husband, saying he was a committed American dedicated to justice.

Taya Kyle, widow of accomplished American sniper Chris Kyle, recently spoke to People magazine regarding her husband after some celebrities criticized the movie portraying his life, "American Sniper," that was recently released in theaters.

Controversial documentary director Michael Moore described snipers as "cowards" in a twitter post, writing "My uncle killed by sniper in WW2 […]We were taught snipers were cowards. Will shoot u in the back. Snipers aren't heroes. And invaders r worse."

Comedian Seth Rogen also received criticism for saying the movie reminded him of a Nazi propaganda film, like the one featured in the Quentin Tarantino film "Inglorious Basterds."

"There's an inaccurate stereotype of these guys, that they love war," 40-year-old Taya told People in a recent interview. "I can promise you, they don't love war. But they do love that fight for what they would say is justice for each other."

In his 2012 autobiography "American Sniper: The Autobiography of the Most Lethal Sniper in U.S. Military History," Kyle wrote that he held on to his Christian faith during war.

"I was raised with, and still believe in, the Christian faith. If I had to order my priorities, they would be God, Country, Family," Kyle wrote in his autobiography before his death. "There might be some debate on where those last two fall — these days I've come around to believe that Family may, under some circumstances, outrank Country. But it's a close race."
