- Regarding the email "Something to think
about. Worth the read."
- You'll find the actual email at the link
below:
Very nicely written. Convincing and well-contrived,
but false propaganda nevertheless!
I don't consider brainwashing email genre to be on a par with
fiction!
A couple quick Google searches found this

I really do hope you don't forward things
like this to everyone,
while believing them, without researching them first!
They strengthen already destructive prejudice.
It's really not fair to the Muslims of good faith.
It's really not fair to the Christians of good faith.
It's only good for the goddamn right wingers and Bushad!
If you do forward them, then send this reply to everyone as well.
Always remember, you can't believe everything
you read.
If someone, even me, can sway you to their beliefs by writing
something,
of course we'll try!!!
I suspect this is an email meant to create anger against Muslims.
Not good.
The Muslim religion itself does not call for killing all the
infidels.
I was suspicious immediately!
The sect that is doing the killing, e.g. Al
Qaeda, is radical.
So are the Christian right wingers and the Bush Administration,
which I am now calling the Bushad, vs the Jihad.
There are radicals on both sides of the Atlantic,
and the ones on this side are disseminating emails like this,
in order to justify, or rationalize, or gain support for, their
aggression.
Think about it. Who is really killing the non-believers?
Right now it's the US and Israel! That's the facts.
Of course we're making enemies by our aggression,
but let's not then use that to claim we're innocent of our crimes.
Everyone would like to believe the US is such
a humanitarian country!
We want to be proud of our nation, as all people want to be of
theirs.
But when we are the aggressors, then, yes, we must live with
our shame!
