Little Susie comes home from first grade and tells her father that they
learned about the history of Valentine's Day.. "Since Valentine's Day is for
a Christian saint and we're Jewish," she asks, "will God get mad at me for
giving someone a valentine?"

Susie's father thinks a bit, then says, "No, I don't think God would get
mad. Who do you want to give a valentine to?"

"Osama Bin Laden," she says.

Her father asks in shock, "why Osama Bin Laden?"

"Well," she says, "I thought that if a little American Jewish girl could
have enough love to give Osama a valentine, he might start to think that maybe
we're not all bad, and maybe start loving people a little bit And if other kids
saw what I did and sent valentines to Osama, he'd love everyone a lot. And
then, he'd start going all over the place telling everyone how much he loved
them and how he didn't hate anyone anymore."

Her father's heart swells and he looks at his daughter with newfound
pride...."Susie, that's the most wonderful thing I've ever heard."

"I know," Susie says, "and once that gets him out in the open, the Marines
could blow the s**t out of him."
