The American Indian is the oldest victim and the Muslim threatens both the Indian and the cowboy with yet another war. The American cowboy is an example of white Western supremacy, the Muslim in this joke acts like the new oppressor, taking blind and dumb revenge on the erstwhile tyrant, and the American Indian is the ultimate and oldest victim. It also shows that the difference between religions and ultimately the total lack of tolerance is always and has always been the cause of all out war. The Indian is the token victim of imbecilic criminals. The modern world in a nutshell. so shall we get back to piano's ? friendly greetings from André Oorebeek Amsterdam - The Netherlands 0031-20-6237357 0645-492389 0031-75-6226878 www.concertpianoservice.nl www.grandpiano.nl "where music is, no harm can be"
