I don't care!

Posted on 03/09/2006 7:34:16 PM PST by Old-Retired-Trucker

I Don't Care ---

The lady who wrote this letter is Pam Foster of Pamela Foster and Associates in Atlanta. She's been in business since 1980 doing interior design and home planning. She recently wrote a letter to a family member serving in Iraq....... Read it!

WHAT'S ALL THE FUSS? "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 Abu Musab al-Zarqawi tells the world he is 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 that 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 that 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 that 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 view point, pass this on to all your friends. Sooner or later, it'll get to the people responsible for this ridiculous behavior!

If you don't agree, I don't care, but please don't complain when more atrocities committed by radical Muslims happen here in our great country.

Roger that, Driver.

I don't care anymore, either.

It's time we quit treating this like some Elementary School recess name-calling fight and wake up to what's really going on.

Just cut off the first part, if it's wrong. The letter is still good. I don't care who wrote it.

You've got the snopes retards trying to make a name. I don't care. Whoever wrote this, it is good, it is me, it is right. I don't F**K**G care. OK? We really need to blow something up. Really. If they know we are going to blow something up if they hurt us, well, it can't help but save lives.

It's the thought that counts.

Just signing in as another American who completely agrees with you. How do we make our government stop pussy-footing around with these terrorists? Yeah. They've enacted some kind of security measures. IMO, they can go farther with them.

Profiling? We have the right. It makes sense.

Border control? Anything less is idiotic.

Islam is a religion of peace? Where's the evidence?

Saudi Arabia is our friend? They blew us up on 9/11, for Pete's sake! Last I heard, Saudi's hijacked those planes. Am I wrong there?

"It's time we quit treating this like some Elementary School recess name-calling fight and wake up to what's really going on."

I think we know what is going on, however, the world's goverments seem powerless and/or unwilling to stop it. What is going on is global jihad, the quest for world domination by the Islamofacists. It will be distressing to see how many more free lance terror acts like the one at the NC University will occur here.

The cartoon jihad did it for me. I had a last little iota of faith that "most muslims are moderate" in my heart. It's gone and now I truly don't care either. Europe better stand up to them, we may have to consider amending our constitution, this likely will be a very long war and it may lead to incalculable blood shed.

Bush screwed up big time by not calling out the culprits by name on 9/11. His kind and conciliatory words have fallen on deaf ears throughout the world.

I used to do a lot of business with 'moderate' Islamofascists, myself. That was until I got curious and started reading the Quran.

The ones at the top in this country make the mistake of equating their religious beliefs to those of the enemy, trying to find a common ground. They're kidding themselves. That book they hold holy is as evil as it gets.

It's funny that not only do I not care either, (about those things listed) but I can't seem to find any one who does.


So just who, (besides the media and the terrorist) does care is still a mystery to me.
