If this is true, I wish we Indians would take some lessons from this!


I am led to believe,an incident occurred in a
supermarket recently, when the following was witnessed:

A Muslim woman dressed in a Burkha was standing
with her shopping in a queue at the checkout.

When it was her turn to be served.When she reached the cashier,
she made a loud remark about the Australian Flag lapel pin,
which the female cashier was wearing on her blouse.

The cashier reached up and touched the pin and said,
'Yes, I always Wear it proudly. My son serves abroad
with the forces and I wear it for him.

The Muslim woman then asked the cashier when she was
going to stop bombing and killing her countrymen
explaining that she was Iraqi.

At that point, an elderly Gentleman standing in the queue
stepped forward, and interrupted with a calm and gentle voice,
and said to the Iraqi woman: 'Excuse me, but hundreds of
thousands of Australian men and women, just like this ladies
son have fought and sacrificed their lives so that
people just like YOU can stand here, in Australia,
which is MY country and allow you to blatantly accuse an
innocent check-out cashier of bombing YOUR countrymen.

'It is my belief that if you were allowed to be as outspoken
as that in Iraq, which you claim to be YOUR country,
then we wouldn't need to be fighting there today'. .
'However - now that you have learned how to speak
out and criticise the Australian people who have afforded
you the protection of MY country, I will gladly pay the
cost of a ticket to help you pay your way back to Iraq '.

'When you get there, and if you manage to survive for being as
outspoken as what you are here in Australia, then you should
be able to help straighten out the mess which YOUR Iraqi
countrymen have got you into in the first place,
which appears to be the reason that you have come to MY
Country to avoid.'

Apparently the queue cheered and applauded. ...

It's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice.
It's also nice to be INDIAN

I was just talking to Sourabh Pramanick this morning.
He has come back to India from Dubai.
There is no place like India in the whole world, inspite of our poverty.
Just imagine what India could achieve if we had more honest politicians.
