Drudge reader "longs for the day" when Canada suffers terrorist attack
From: ---------@aol.com
To: mail@canadaforclark.com
Subject: Right on

Its going to be such a fantastic day when your pisshole country suffers a terrorist attack!  I long for the day!!!!





--------------

See ladies and gentleman? This is the type of thing we should be exposing! This person probably reaches orgasm at the thought of Bush's "war on terror", yet is quick to wish mass murder upon a country that disagrees with his. I almost puked when I read this email.

1. Why would terrists attack Canada?


After all, we aren't fucking around with other people's countries and their oil. Seeing as how we are a bunch of semi-commie socialists up here in the Great White North, it's not like we have any freedoms that we could be hated for either.

13. Of course he'd say that on the internet
He wouldn't have the guts to say it to your face. He'd probably melt and ooze under the door at the sight of a Canadian. Canada bashing is for morons who renamed the french fry. Who Cares!

20. they hate us for our freedoms!

That's got to be it, right? We don't make as much money as they do, and we aren't as powerful ... but we do have health insurance and a Prime Minister who backs gay marriage and wants to proceed with decriminalizing marijuana.

But seriously, various other DUers (including many sympathetic Americans, thank you) have pointed out that the right-wingers can't stand a country where we seem to have turned out reasonably okay -- and can even pass for Americans -- even though we seem to have violated many of the things that Dubya and Co. believe in.

As soon as those doubts are raised -- "maybe we don't have to give corporations free rein" -- "maybe we can work with other countries instead of using the Bush Doctrine" -- that's a threat to them.

I suspect this might be the same type of hostility encountered by someone who has black ancestors but "looks white", or a gay person who doesn't fit the "approved stereotypes". Rage driven by paranoia can be terrible -- I really hope that Canadians aren't viewed as potential spies and infiltrators.

6. I'm sure Andrew Sullivan will offer that as representative of
conservative thought. He's very fair and balanced that way.

12. Nah, I wouldn't stoop to his level.
Just called him a "sicko, disgusting human being", etc.
And he emailed me back, acting innocently, like "LOL I really pissed you off didn't I, HAHAHA".

What a creep. Chalk up another one to Bush-fanaticism.

14. Here's an email I just received from a true patriot named "Thomas":
"Please be advised that we are a nation at war, authoriswd by the congress of the United States. While you cloak your efforts as presidential politics , in fact you are actively undermining the actions of the commander in chief which is either treason or aiding and abetting enemies of the U. S from foreign soil,which is a felony.Tomorrow, I will file a formal complaint with appropriate authorities asking that anyone connected with your oeganization that comes to the U. S., be detained and investigated for active support of terrorism. Tom Wegmann, Seattle, Washington"





My response: "Wow, you really are a patriot, aren't you?
Tomorrow, I will file a complaint to the Canadian Security And Information
Service (CSIS), because you are guilty of SLANDER against my Canadian
government-sponsored website!

Well not really, but you get the point.
My organization is made up of one (yes, ONE) person, me, who is doing nothing
illegal, except expressing his freedom of speech. Or is that illegal now, Tom?
I'm a terrorist for having a website? Is that what the political landscape is
transforming into these days? Really sad, I must say.

Please rethink your attitude. It reflects VERY negatively on all Americans."



Anyhow, quite sickening, no? I'm a terrorist for having a website. Wowzers.

19. um -- we actually DID suffer one
The Air India bombing -- and given the relative population sizes, it was as dramatic as the 9/11 attacks were to the US. If that second bomb had gone off when the other plane was in the air ...

http://www.cbc.ca/news/background/airindia/

When Flight 182 crashed into the sea near Ireland, 329 people died, including 82 children. I know that the wingnuts will say, "well they weren't really Canadian", but that's not true. Most of the victims were citizens.

I suppose we could have lashed out and sent out hired teams of assassins, or bombed the Punjab, or maybe gone after Sri Lanka or Iran or anybody else who might possibly have irritated us at one time. Instead, we had a criminal trial (going on now in Vancouver).

21. And then there were the 24 Canadians killed in the World Trade Center
http://canada.com/national/features/september11/index.html#

Was FReeper-boy "longing" for that, too?

Dozens of nations lost citizens on 9/11. Due to the presence of Cantor Fitzgerald, several hundred Britons were among the victims, making the attack the deadliest in British history as well as American.

25. Very nice website!
You should send it to the Clark campaign. If you did, did you get a response?

Oh, btw, thank you for your interest in our politics.:-)

26. Well, I would suggest that if Drudge has a problem with
Canadians he should go to Afganistan and discuss the situation with some of the Canadian troops serving there or go to Canada and visit the parents of the troops killed by American "friendly fire". What a chickenhawk asshole!

These nutball Freeper types seem to forget that we participated in the war in Afghanistan and that the war in Iraq had nothing to do with fighting terrorism.
