    A nicely written piece... Written by an Australian Dentist...



    To Kill an American or a Canadian



    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 or Canadian, any American or Canadian.





    So an Australian dentist wrote an editorial the following day to
    let everyone know what an American or Canadian is, so they would know when
    they found one. (Good one, mate!!!! )





    An American or Canadian 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 or Canadian may also be a Comanche, Cherokee, Osage,
    Blackfoot, Navaho, Apache, Seminole or one of the many other tribes known
    as native Americans or Canadians.





    An American or Canadian is Christian, or he could be Jewish, or
    Buddhist, or Muslim. In fact, there are more Muslims in America or Canada
    than in Afghanistan . The only difference is that in North America they
    are free to worship as each of them chooses.





    An American or Canadian 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 or Canadian 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 (or in Canada, the Bill of Rights), which
    recognizes the God given right of each person to the pursuit of happiness.





    An American or Canadian is generous. Americans or Canadians 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 and Canadians 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 and Canadians 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 or Canadian 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 and Canadians 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
    or a Canadian

    An American would give enough votes to Bush for him to win; twice.
    A Canadian would rather not.

    any post that starts with "Scroll down" cant possibly be worth while, why
    not just start with whatever the **** it is you want to talk about? Of
    course it does build suspense nicely.
