"Are we fighting a war on terror or aren't we? Was
it or was it not started by Islamic people who
brought it to our shores on September 11, 2001?

Were people from all over the world, mostly
Americans, not brutally murdered that day, in
downtown Manhattan , across the Potomac from our
nation's capitol and in a field in Pennsylvania ?

Did nearly three thousand men, women and children
die a horrible, burning or crushing death that day,
or didn't they?

And I'm supposed to care that a copy of the Koran
was "desecrated" when an overworked American soldier
kicked it or got it wet?...Well, I don't. I don't
care at all.


I'll start caring when Osama bin Laden turns himself
in and repents for incinerating all those innocent
people on 9/11.


I'll care about the Koran when the fanatics in the
Middle East start caring about the Holy Bible, the
mere possession of which is a crime in Saudi Arabia.


I'll care when these thugs tell the world they are
sorry for hacking off Nick Berg's head while Berg
screamed through his gurgling slashed throat.

I'll care when the cowardly so-called "insurgents"
in Iraq come out and fight like men instead of
disrespecting their own religion by hiding in
mosques.


I'll care when the mindless zealots who blow
themselves up in search of nirvana care about the
innocent children within range of their suicide
bombs.


I'll care when the American media stops pretending
that their First Amendment liberties are somehow
derived from international law instead of the United
States Constitution's Bill of Rights.

In the meantime, when I hear a story about a brave
marine roughing up an Iraqi terrorist to obtain
information, know this: I don't care.

When I see a fuzzy photo of a pile of naked Iraqi
prisoners who have been humiliated in what amounts
to a college-hazing incident, rest assured: I don't
care.

When I see a wounded
terrorist get shot in the head
when he is told not to move because he might be
booby-trapped, you can take it to the bank: I don't
care.

When I hear that a prisoner, who
was issued a Koran
and a prayer mat, and fed "special" food that is
paid for by my tax dollars, is complaining that his
holy book is being "mishandled," you can absolutely
believe in your heart of hearts: I don't care.

And oh, by the way, I've noticed that sometimes it's
spelled "Koran" and other times "Quran." Well, Jimmy
Crack Corn and-you guessed it-I don't care !!

If you agree with this viewpoint, pass this on to
all your E-mail friends. Sooner or later, it'll get
to the people responsible for this ridiculous
behavior!

If you don't agree, then by all means hit the delete
button. Should you choose the latter, then please
don't complain when more atrocities committed by
radical Muslims happen here in our great Country!
And may I add:

"Some people spend an entire lifetime wondering if
they made a difference in the world. But, the
Marines don't have that problem." -- Ronald Reagan

I have another quote that I would like to add
AND.......I hope you forward all this.

"If we ever forget that we're One Nation Under God,
then we will be a nation gone under." Also by..

Ronald Reagan

One last thought for the day:

In case we find ourselves starting to believe all
the Anti-American sentiment and negativity, we
should remember England 's Prime Minister Tony
Blair's words during a recent interview. When asked
by one of his Parliament members why he believes so
much in America , he said: "A simple way to take
measure of a country is to look at how many want
in... And how many want out."

Only two defining forces have ever offered to die
for you:
1. Jesus Christ
2. The American G. I.

One died for your soul, the other for your freedom.
