    I thought this was an interesting read

    Written by a housewife from New Jersey and sounds like it! This is one
    ticked off lady.

    "Are we fighting a war on terror or aren't we? Was it or was it not started
    by Islamic people who bought 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."

    Be who you are and say what you feel, those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.

    I don't think we should feel that way, but sometimes I do. We, as a country, are supposed to be above that; just because someone does something to us, we shouldn't stoop to their level, I guess.

    I think our caring, even of those of other races and religions, are part of what sets us apart.
