Roger Bissell Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 The AggressorKatie Couric, Charlie Gibson, Brian Williams and a tough old U.S. Marine Sergeant were captured by terrorists in Iraq . The leader of the Iraqi terrorists told them he'd grant each of them one last request before they were beheaded and dragged naked through the streets. Katie Couric said, ''Well, I'm a Southerner, so I'd like one last plate of fried chicken.'' The leader nodded to an underling who left and returned with the chicken. Couric ate it all and said, ''Now I can die content.'' Charlie Gibson said, ''I live in New York , so I'd like to hear the song The Moon and Me' one last time..'' The terrorist's leader nodded to another terrorist who had studied the Western world and knew the music. He returned with some rag-tag musicians and played the song. Gibson was satisfied. Brian Williams said, ''I'm a reporter to the end. I want to take out my tape recorder and describe the scene here and what's about to happen. Maybe, someday, someone will hear it and know that I was on the job till the end.'' The leader directed an aide to hand over the tape recorder and Williams dictated his comments. He then said, ''Now I can die happy.'' The leader turned and said, ''And now, Mr. US Marine, what is your final wish?'' ''Kick me in the ass,'' said the Marine. ''What?'' asked the Islamic terrorist, 'You will mock us in your last hour?'' ''No, I'm NOT kidding. I want you to kick me in the ass,'' insisted the Marine. So the terrorist shoved him into the yard and kicked him in the ass. The Marine went sprawling, but rolled to his knees, pulled a 9 mm pistol from inside his cammies and shot the leader dead. In the resulting confusion, he emptied his sidearm on six terrorists, with his knife he slashed the throat of one with an AK-47, which he took, and sprayed the rest of the terrorists killing another dozen! In a flash, all of them were either dead or fleeing for their lives. As the Marine was untying Couric, Gibson and Williams, they asked him, ''Why didn't you just shoot them all in the first place? Why did you ask him to kick you in the ass?'' 'What!?!'' replied the Marine,''and have you three assholes report that I was the aggressor?''

Barbara Branden Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 Roger, the fact is that they would report that the Marine was the aggressor anyway -- as witness the media's s reports on Israel vs Hamas and the Palestinians.Barbara Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
