I can hear the liberal-anti-America-dorcus crowd now, "How dare you post such a hate filled letter - the difference between WWII media and today's media is WE ARE OBJECTIVE...THEY WERE NOT."

TRANSLATION: The WWII media knew and understood that their RIGHTS as AMERICAN reporters were based on the AMERICAN CONSTITUTION...and today's media is just plain STUPID!

This letter is a MUST READ for my political science class in the morning! THANKS!

Great post -- let's continue. The New York Times (otherwise known as Pravda West) would have a banner headline -- "Brave Suicide Bombers Exploit Structural Flaws in Ugly, Overbuilt Skyscrappers." Little Katie Communist on the NBC Today Show could interview Mullah Bullshootah as to how he doesn't want to kill all Americans, just those that live in the United States. Chubbie Chelsea could tell Parade Magazine that the 20 hijacker held her at boxcutter-point in her appartment just blocks away from the WTC while she tried to call her mother -- Hillary BHD ("Bad HairDay" -- she's always having a Bad Hair Day) couldn't take the call because she was having a meeting with her attorneys on PARDONGATE. Tough luck. Face it. Gore lost the election and Bush will win the war. OBL is not a gray ghost -- like Che he's about to be turned in by his own people and killed. The Taliban are like cancer cells -- no doctor hesitates to kill cancer cells. Bush is not Clintoon -- he understands the military and does not feel guilt about being an American. The root cause here is not "Poverty" -- it is the anit-modernism that runs through the Arab culture. These Arab Terrorists are as boy-buggering as they are women-hating -- the two tendencies go together. They are religious bigots who would kill countless civilians, women and children (as long as they are American) in the name of Allah. Islam is not a peaceful religion, at least not as practiced by 1000 years of zealots. It doesn't matter why these people don't like us -- that's their problem, not ours. What we shouldn't like is the billions of dollars of aid we spend on them each year. Hitler wasn't sympathetic and he didn't need to be understood -- ask the millions who died in his concentration camps. OBL is not a folk-hero, he's a bearded spoiled rich kid capable of inciting genocide. Bombs are the only form of reasoning bullies have ever understood. Enough with the liberal press -- size up the female writers for burkas and send the men (and their boy children) to the Taliban -- let's see how they like it after a month or so.

Its funny how the Courics and the VanSusterns can espouse tolerance for people like the Taliban from the safety,comfort and security of the US.Put them in the middle east where women are treated as second class and see if they still hate America and what it stands for.

The American media would have complemented the efficiency of the German ovens and how cleanly they burned.

They would have chuckled on how American prisoners couldn't keep up with the Japs on the Bataan Death March.

They would have called for mercy at Nuremburg. Goering, Goebbels, Kaltenbrunner and Jodl would be sentenced to community service.

They would have pleaded for Patton to halt his drive to relieve Bastogne. Enough have died already!

And finally, after the second atomic bomb was dropped on Nagasaki, they would pose the question if Truman was guilty of war crimes.
