 Posted: 02/11/06 - 14:14 Post subject: To Kill An American
|
|
|
Written by an Australian Dentist...
To Kill an American
You probably missed it in the rush of news last week, but there was actually a report that someone in Pakistan had published in a newspaper an offer of a reward to anyone who killed an American, any American.
So an Australian dentist wrote an editorial the following day to let everyone know what an American is . So they would know when they found one. (Good one, mate!!!!)
"An American is English, or French, or Italian, Irish, German, Spanish, Polish, Russian or Greek. An American may also be Canadian, Mexican, African, Indian, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Australian, Iranian, Asian, or Arab, or Pakistani or Afghan. "
An American may also be a Comanche, Cherokee, Osage, Blackfoot, Navaho, Apache, Seminole or one of the many other tribes known as Native Americans.
An American is Christian, or he could be Jewish, or Buddhist, or Muslim. In fact, there are more Muslims in America than in Afghanistan. The only difference is that in America they are free to worship as each of them chooses.
An American is also free to believe in no religion. For that he will answer only to God, not to the government, or to armed thugs claiming to speak for the government and for God.
An American lives in the most prosperous land in the history of the world. The root of that prosperity can be found in the Declaration of Independence, which recognizes the God given right of each person to the pursuit of happiness.
An American is generous. Americans have helped out just about every other nation in the world in their time of need, never asking a thing in return.
When Afghanistan was over-run by the Soviet army 20 years ago, Americans came with arms and supplies to enable the people to win back their country!
As of the morning of September 11, Americans had given more than any other nation to the poor in Afghanistan. Americans welcome the best of everything..the best products, the best books, the best music, the best food, the best services. But they also welcome the least.
The national symbol of America, The Statue of Liberty, welcomes your tired and your poor, the wretched refuse of your teeming shores, the homeless, tempest tossed. These in fact are the people who built America.
Some of them were working in the Twin Towers the morning of September 11, 2001 earning a better life for their families. It's been told that the World Trade Center victims were from at least 30 different countries, cultures, and first languages, including those that aided and abetted the terrorists.
So you can try to kill an American if you must. Hitler did. So did General Tojo, and Stalin, and Mao Tse-Tung, and other blood-thirsty tyrants in the world. But, in doing so you would just be killing yourself. Because Americans are not a particular people from a particular place. They are the embodiment of the human spirit of freedom. Everyone who holds to that spirit, everywhere, is an American.

On 9/11 human blood fell from the sky like rain.
Try to find that on 'Snopes'.
If you can't find it there ask a local Mullah or your Imam.

We should set our prison system loose on the middle east. Say hey... "you want a second chance?" Then send em to downtown Iraq. Aside from being in prison it would re affirm how good it is to be free. That and it will scare them and at the same time theyd be doing something good for the rest of us.
Just need to give them good D.I's when going through basic this way they have a sense of discipline.

Yeah? You think so? Did you really read it?
| Quote: | An American is also free to believe in no religion. For that he will answer only to God, not to the government, or to armed thugs claiming to speak for the government and for God.
An American lives in the most prosperous land in the history of the world. The root of that prosperity can be found in the Declaration of Independence, which recognizes the God given right of each person to the pursuit of happiness.
An American is generous. Americans have helped out just about every other nation in the world in their time of need, never asking a thing in return.

Hmmmm, I see. So what you're telling me, basically, is your idea of "truth" is extremely skewed by personal bias and doesn't actually recognize the difference between literal truth and what your surroundings tells you is true.
Zing!

No kid, he is trying to tell you, that you look like a b***h. When you grow up you will be embarrassed for yourself, no doubt. That is unless you are a f*g at heart, then you will look even more the b***h.

I'm only mad that I have to share this space, my country, with scumbag children of this caliber.
So now his truth is yours? Wow, I knew you to be a nerdling coward, but I didn't know you were anti American too. Interesting, your parents must be real winners to have raised a shining star such as yourself.
Fuckn scumbags all.

Im most definetly not anti-american. I just hate this kind of brainless propaganda that has been cluttering e-mail folders everywhere since 2001. Do we need to be reminded how much we rock every 5 minutes? It's not something I need to be constantly reassured of.

I didn't even read what snopes said about it.
I saw the post, and it struck me as something that goes around in email spam chains.
So I snoped it, and posted the link.

It must be hard for you to swallow that soon us "idiots" and "children" will be running the show, while you "old guard" will be out of it. How's the pension treating you?
