"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. 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."



Well, that's it. What do you think?

I emailed it to a bunch of people I know. I hope it gets to the right bunch of idiots eventually too.
