Thank you, Edith.  DS

 Read this joke???????
 But is it really a joke when you analize this and compare it to the  bias we see on a daily basis in our media regarding the events in the middle east?

 Is it really a joke when the UN constantly condems Israel for trying to protect her citizens from the onslaught of Hamas terrorism.?

 I think we can see that the story of this biker is not unlike the way our reporters depict the recent events in Gaza

 Subj: Fw: The Biker



  A biker is riding by the zoo, when he sees a little girl leaning into the lion's cage. Suddenly, the lion grabs her by the cuff of her jacket and tries to pull her inside to slaughter her, under the eyes of her screaming parents.



  The biker jumps off his bike, runs to the cage and hits the lion square on the nose with a powerful punch.



  Whimpering from the pain the lion jumps back letting go of the girl, and the biker brings her to her terrified parents, who thank him endlessly. A reporter has watched the whole event.



  The reporter addressing the biker says, 'Sir, this was the most gallant and brave thing I saw a man do in my whole life.'



  The biker replies, 'Why, it was nothing, really, the lion was behind bars. I just saw this little kid in danger, and acted as I felt right.'



  The reporter says, 'Well, I'll make sure this won't go unnoticed. I'm a journalist, you know, and tomorrow's paper will have this story on the front page... So, what do you do for a living and what political affiliation do you have?''



  The biker replies, 'I'm a U.S. Marine and a Republican.' The journalist leaves.



  The following morning the biker buys the paper to see if it indeed brings news of his actions, and reads, on the front page:
