An Open Letter To Terrorists

Adapted from a letter written by a Naval Aviator
I Am Coming!

Dear Terrorists,

I am an Army Intelligence Analyst. I was born and raised in a series of small Army towns. I was raised in a middle class home and taught my values by my mother and father.

My Dad was an Infantry Officer and Army helicopter pilot in Vietnam. We were not an overly religious family but attended church most Sundays. It was a nice small Methodist Church. I have a step-brother and step-sister. I was the first in many generations to be an enlisted man in the Army. You see, Army service is a tradition in my family, even my Grandmother was an Army officer in the Medical Corps. My Grandfather killed Nazis in Europe in WWII and my Father killed NVA and Vietcong in Vietnam. You are less of a challenge than those two groups, but I will get to that.

I have been an Army Intelligence Analyst for quite a few years. For me being an analyst was never a lifelong dream or a "calling," it just happened. I wanted to be a pilot like my Father but my eyesight let me down. I needed a job and I liked the challenge. I continue to do it today because I feel it is important to give back to a nation which has given so much to me. I do it because, although I will never be rich, my family will be comfortable.

I do it because many of my friends took the easy road.

My government has spent millions to train me to operate these multi-million dollar analytical weapons platforms. With these platforms I will eventually find you, wherever you are.

I like baseball but think the players make too much money. I am in awe of firemen and policemen and what they do each day for my community, and like teachers, they just don't get paid enough.

I respect my elders and always use sir or ma'am when addressing a stranger. I'm not sure about kids these days but I think that's normal for every generation.

I tell you all this because when they come for you, I want you to know that I sent them. I won't be hiding behind a woman or a child. I won't be disguised or pretending to be something I am not. I will be in front of a computer terminal, looking at a link chart I have built that tells me who you are, who you love and hate, what your weak points are, and most importantly where you are hiding. I will be wearing standard US issue battle dress uniform, and I am ready to meet you on any battlefield if it should come to that, because I am fit to fight. I wish we could meet up close in a small room where I could wrap my hands around your throat and slowly squeeze the life out of you, but unfortunately, you're hiding in a hole in the ground, so we will have to do this a different way.

I want you to know also that I am very good at what I do. I can put a SF team at your door or cave entrance at the exact moment that they need to be there. I fight day and night, so you may never rest easy. I am not eager to die for my country but I am willing to sacrifice my life to protect it from animals like you.

I will do everything in my power to ensure no civilians are hurt as I aim the most deadly weapon system known to man, the American Soldier, at your black heart.

My countrymen are a forgiving bunch. Many are already forgetting what you did on Sept 11th. But I will not forget!!

I am coming! I hope you know me a little bit better, see you soon...

Signed,

Jason S.
A U.S. Army Intelligence Professional


HOOAHHH, Jason!
