>>An Open Letter To Terrorists >> >>Well, you hit the World Trade Center, but you missed >>America. You hit the Pentagon, but you missed America. >>You used helpless American bodies, to take out other >>American bodies, but like a poor marksman, you STILL >>missed America. >> >>Why? Because of something you guys will never >>understand. America isn't about a building or two, not >>about financial centers, not about military centers, >>America isn't about a place, America isn't even about >>a bunch of bodies. America is about an IDEA. An idea, >>that you can go someplace where you can earn as much >>as you can figure out how to, live for the most part, >>like you envisioned living, and pursue happiness. (No >>guarantees that you'll reach it, but you can sure >>try!) >> >>Go ahead and whine your terrorist whine, and chant >>your terrorist litany: "If you can not see my point, >>then feel my pain." This concept is alien to >>Americans. We live in a country where we don't have to >>see your point. But you're free to have one. We don't >>have to listen to your speech. But you're free to say >>one. Don't know where you got the strange idea that >>everyone has to agree with you. We don't agree with >>each other in this country, almost as a matter of >>pride. We're a collection of guys that don't agree, >>called States. We united our individual states to >>protect ourselves from tyranny in the world. Another >>idea, we made up on the spot. You CAN make it up as >>you go, when it's your country. If you're free enough. >> >> >>Yeah, we're fat, sloppy, easy-going goofs most of the >>time. That's an unfortunate image to project to the >>world, but it comes from feeling free and easy about >>the world you live in. It's unfortunate too, because >>people start to forget that when you attack Americans, >>they tend to fight like a cornered badger. The first >>we knew of the War of 1812 was when England burned >>Washington D.C. to the ground. Didn't turn out like >>England thought it was going to, and it's not going to >>turn out like you think, either. Sorry, but you're not >>the first bully on our shores, just the most recent. >> >>No Marquis of Queensbury rules for Americans, either. >>We were the FIRST and so far, the only country in the >>world to use nuclear weapons in anger. Horrific idea, >>nowadays? News for you bucko, it was back then too, >>but we used it anyway. Only had two of them in the >>whole world and we used them both. Grandpa Jones >>worked on the Manhattan Project. Told me once, that >>right up until they threw the switch, the physicists >>were still arguing over whether the Uranium alone >>would fission, or whether it would start a fission >>chain reaction that would eat everything. But they >>threw the switch anyway, because we had a War to win. >>Does this tell you something about American Resolve? >> >>So who just declared War on us? It would be nice to >>point to some real estate, like the good old days. >>Unfortunately, we're probably at war with random >>camps, in far-flung places - who think they're safe. >>Just like the Barbary Pirates did, if I recall >>correctly. Better start sleeping with one eye open. >> >>There's a spirit that tends to take over people who >>come to this country, looking for opportunity, looking >>for liberty, and looking for freedom. Even if they >>misuse it. The Marielistas that Castro emptied out of >>his prisons were overjoyed to find out how much >>freedom there was. First thing they did when they hit >>our shores, was run out and buy guns. The ones that >>didn't end up dead, ended up in prisons. It was a big >>pain in the ass then (especially in south Florida), >>but you're only the newest pain in the ass, not the >>first. >> >>You guys seem to be incapable of understanding that we >>don't live in America, America lives in US! American >>Spirit is what it's called. And killing a few thousand >>of us, or a few million of us, won't change it. Most >>of the time, it's a pretty happy-go-lucky kind of >>Spirit. Until we're crossed in a cowardly manner, then >>it becomes an entirely different kind of Spirit. >> >>Wait until you see what we do with that Spirit, this >>time. >> >>Sleep tight, if you can.
