5 Feet of Fury

First they came for the hostages in Iran…

And we all wore nasty “Ayatollah” t-shirts and (eventually) voted for Reagan, and the hostages got freed.

But then they came for the Marines in Beirut, but something had changed, and even Reagan did nothing, because they were Muslims, and we had to be nice to them, or they’d keep killing us.

Then they came for the Cole, and Klinghoffer, and we did nothing, because they were Muslims, and we had to be nice to them, or they’d keep killing us.

Then they tried to blow up the WTC, and when they succeeded, we did nothing, because they were Muslims, and we had to be nice to them, or they’d keep killing us.

Then they attacked their fellow troops again and again, but we did nothing, because they were Muslims, and we had to be nice to them, or they’d keep killing us.

We were very, very nice to Major Hasan. Major Hasan killed us anyway.

And we did nothing, because we were all dead.

But we’d been nice to Muslims. And after all, that was the most important thing.
