> "Are we fighting a war on terror or aren't we?

> Where people from all over the world, mostly
> Americans, were 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

> 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

> 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

> 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

>
> When I see a wounded terrorist get shot in the head
> when he is told not to move because he might be

> When I hear that a prisoner, who was issued a Koran
