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 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!!!! )......He wrote:




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 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 lands in the
history of the world. The root of that prosperity can be found in the
Declaration of Independence, 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, and 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



Please keep this going! Pass this around the World. Then pass it
around again. It says it all, for all of us.

Please don't misunderstand the message he was giving. It was to lift up Americans and Canadians.

Just pointing it out: That "editorial" is a, idiotic; b, a hoax; c, full of factual mistakes. (Mao and Stalin killing Americans?? For the love of...)

"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. "

Yeah. Unless you are an Arab, Eastern-European, Latin-American, Chinese immigrant, because in that case, talk to fence, and deportation officer, baby!

"Will pay to have Americans or Canadians killed"? Not surprising. As i remember the Americans are paying about a 100.000 marines or so, monthly, to kill a bunch of other people.

You know what's killing people? Not guns. Self-righteous hypocrisy. That's what.

Who says they do no longer pay taxes? My fiancee is close by. as quickly as we first met, she used to humorous tale that her earnings tax became incredibly much precisely the comparable because of the fact the quantity I won according to 3 hundred and sixty 5 days for my protection rigidity pension. We figured if she only gave me the money without delay, we could shop the government a rather good variety of place of work work! Natives with self-government agreements (there are 14 in Yukon on my own) have the ability to advance their very own taxes. There are some preparations for some, no longer all, natives to no longer pay revenues taxes, as part of their treaties. in spite of the undeniable fact that, in effortless terms specific treaties have this; it relatively is no longer conventional. It became executed generally in return for the land that have been traditionally claimed by utilising the countries coated below those treaties. If Canadians from Africa wanted to return all their land back to the Crown in return for no longer paying revenues taxes, i'm specific the government would desire to look on the assumption....
