I dont care

[daveb47]

Thought you might like to read this letter to the editor of a British national newspaper. Ever notice how some people just seem to know how to write a letter?.

 

Here is a woman who should run for Prime Minister or President of the U.S.

 

Written by a housewife, to her daily newspaper. 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 brought it to our shores in July 2002, and in New York Sept 11,2001 and have continually threatened to do so since?

 

 

Were people from all over the world, not brutally murdered that day in London , and in downtown Manhattan , a field in Pennsylvania and the Pentagon.?

 

 

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 few Taliban were claiming to be tortured by a justice system of the nation they come from and are fighting against in a brutal insurgency.

 

 

I'll start caring when Osama bin Laden turns himself in and repents for incinerating all those innocent people on 9/11 and 7/7.

 

 

I'll care about the Koran when the fanatics in the Middle East start caring about the Holy Bible, the mere belief of which is a crime punishable by beheading in Afghanistan

 

 

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 Afghanistan come out and fight like men instead of disrespecting their own religion by hiding in mosques and behind women and children.

 

 

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 British media stops pretending that their freedom of speech on stories is more important than the lives of the soldiers on the ground or their families waiting at home to hear about them when something happens.

 

 

In the meantime, when I hear a story about a British soldier roughing up an Insurgent terrorist to obtain information, know this:

 

 

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 this 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 taxes - 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, believe me!! you guessed it ......

 

 

I don't care!!

 

 

 

 

If you dont agree thats your right. But 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. Our soldiers don't have that problem.'

 

 

I have another quote that I would like to add,

 

 

Only 4 defining forces have ever offered to die for you:

 

 

1. The British Soldier.

 

 

2. The Canadian Soldier.

 

 

3. The US Soldier, and

 

 

4 The Australian Soldier

Sorry but I find it inflammatory claptrap.

 

Falls apart here "Was it or was it not started by Islamic people"

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

(Please note: nowhere in this post do I condone terrorism)

[daveb47]

So who else was it started by...????

[Ogre]

It was brought to this country by our governments support for the USA over the 11/11 bombings

[daveb47]

So our goverment did it??

[Ogre]

Our government brought the war to my home soil.

[daveb47]

Amazing,& i always thought it was terrorist islamics....Well you live & learn.

 

Did they do the twin towers then......sounds likely to me.

[DavidP]

I love it and agree 100%

 

I don't think anyone in the western world was safe from Islamic terrorism before 9/11 and certainly not since. It could just as easily have been Britain being attacked then, but it wouldn't have made the right statement! If the UK had been as all powerful as the States it could well have been! 100 years ago it could very easily have been given that you occupied the Middle East!!

 

There's a war going on, not of our making in my opinion. Its a clash of cultures, weak (us) vs strong. And we need to toughen up to survive it!

The campaign was launched in 2001 with the US/UK invasion of Afghanistan in response to the September 11 terrorist attacks.

The notion of a "war on terror" has been criticized for lacking a defined and identifiable enemy, thus making it a potential framework for perpetual military action pursuing other goals.

 

 

 

Love to chew the fat some more but gotta go teach - have a good day

September 11 terrorist attacks

 

So it was the terrorists & i was tarting to be persuaded that it was the uk gov...

[sparks]

It could just as easily have been Britain being attacked then, but it wouldn't have made the right statement! If the UK had been as all powerful as the States it could well have been! 100 years ago it could very easily have been given that you occupied the Middle East!!

 

There's a war going on, not of our making in my opinion.

And therein lies the perfect contradiction!

 

The US were targetted, as you say, because of their occupation of the middle east by physical/financial means, and also politically via their biased support for the 51st state - Israel

 

And the UK became a target due to their support of the US after the twin towers attack and retribution by the US!

 

Therefore we (as in the west) are to a certain extent guilty of starting this 'war' because of that occupation...

 

 

 

Can you tell me how many Islamic terror attacks there were in the UK before sept 11?

 

And how many islamic terrorist threats were there in Australia before that date, and when did the Bali bombing happen?

 

Australia became a target too because of it's support for the misnamed 'war on terror'...

 

 

 

 

Incidentally, this is correct imo - and I rarely agree with the police..lol

 

English Defence League demos 'feed Islamic extremism'

 

I've seen episodes of racial tension over the last few decades, and hatred always breeds hatred...

 

It's a never ending cycle, and the daft letter in the first post just reinforces that fact!

I have no hatred of muslems in any way shape or form unless they are terrorists or supporters of terrorism etc and the views in this letter are supported real moslems as i have discovered by taking it round my local shops this morning,all owned & staffed by "British moslems" as they ;like to be thought of.

They all agreed with every one of the comments in the letter & had it photocopied so they can show it to friends.

Their opinion is that their faith has been hijacked by the terrorists & media & that in their various lands of origin only a very small minority have any animosity towards the west.

It is not anti Moslems it is anti terrorist & this they applaud.
