Iraq Matters When It Comes To US Security...

The President is going to say in his State of the Union address (among other things) that Iraq matters when it comes to security of the USA. I'd like him also to admit that it's equally important that our porous borders matter when it comes to the security of the USA. We have to know who is entering our country, where they are, and why they are here. We also have to refuse admittance to some people and to follow up on those who need to leave when they overstay--in accordance with our laws.

If Iraq "matters" because we want to fight our enemy THERE instead of here, why would we not want to be certain that they cannot come HERE to launch attacks against us?

We know there are already huge numbers of Hezbolla, militant radical Muslim, and Hamas cells living in the country--some legally (because of our lax visa system) and illegally (because of our lax border protection). The radicals are coming here and sending money (legal and illegal gotten gain) home from the US to help fund the war to defeat us THERE! And just lying in wait for an order to start their murderous attacks HERE!

Where is the liberal outrage against this? Where is the liberal sense of self-preservation? Are we to just sit by "smiling" and being "nice," appeasing those who are intent on either converting us to Islam or killing us?

Oh, sure, in the meantime, we'll talk them into our way of life and everything will be just honky dorey! They're so good at change--today, stop me if I'm wrong here--they are still indoctrinating their children (well, boy children--Attention liberal US women--the only ones who really count) to fight the same wars in 2007 that they were fighting around the world in the 7th Century. They MUST eradicate Christians and Jews, mustn't they? And we must do....what?

There's a Hell of a Damned War On Out There....

"....write your people back home and tell them there's a Hell of a damned war on out here....Tell them there's no secret weapon for our country but to get hard. To get in there and fight. I want you to make them understand our country won't go on forever if we stay as soft as we are now. Because some foreign soldiery will invade us and take our women and breed a heartier race." --in a speech to his Marines during the Korean War by Lewis B "Chesty" Puller, General, USMC.

"The first Roosevelt said it was a good policy to, "speak softly and carry a big stick." Since the last war (WWII), we have only had a big mouth and no stick." ---in letter to his wife during the Korean War by Lewis B. "Chesty" Puller, General USMC, USA

No law nor governmental order should undermine the safety or sovereignty of our country. The safety and sovereignty umbrella includes winning the war on terror (including Iraq and anywhere they pop up around the globe), and reversing the current trend of encouraging illegal immigrants to come to this country with nothing to offer, only something to take from us without regard for the country's laws or citizens; or to come to bring their duplicity and evil terror here.

People are masters of self delusion about realities that are difficult to face. There are two obstacles we face in the fight against terrorism: Self-delusion about reality by those who are cowards, which leads to undermining our winning, and selfish greed by those who have something to gain by the spreading of evil worldwide.

If our media and educators and churches (and their organizations) believe that military force is never necessary--especially in a time of war--and if they believe that ALL issues can be solved with negotiation, they've not only lost touch with the American people, they've betrayed their own fundamental values upon which their homeland was founded.

Tyranny cannot be defeated by diplomacy. No dictator or "strong man" will ever be persuaded into sharing his dreams of universal power (controlling the whole world pie) because it's the right thing to do. Appeasement only leads to defeat at a slightly later time. Evil cannot be talked into becoming good. Never happened, never will.

No Stronger Retrograde Force Exists In The World

"How dreadful are the curses which Mohammedanism lays on its votaries!

Besides the fanatical frenzy, which is as dangerous in a man as hydrophobia in a dog, there is this fearful fatalistic apathy.

The effects are apparent in many countries, improvident habits, slovenly systems of agriculture, sluggish methods of commerce, and insecurity of property exist wherever the followers of the Prophet rule or live.

A degraded sensualism deprives this life of its grace and refinement the next of its dignity and sanctity. The fact that in Mohammedan law every woman must belong to some man as his absolute property, either as a child, a wife, or a concubine, must delay the final extinction of slavery until the faith of Islam has ceased to be a great power among men.

Individual Moslems may show splendid qualities, but the influence of the religion paralyzes the social development of those who follow it. No stronger retrograde force exists in the world.

Far from being moribund, Mohammedanism is a militant and proselytizing faith. It has already spread throughout Central Africa, raising fearless warriors at every step; and were it not that Christianity is sheltered in the strong arms of science, the science against which it had vainly struggled, the civilization of modern Europe might fall, as fell the civilization of ancient Rome."

-From "Sir Winston Churchill; The River War," first edition, Vol. II, pages 248-50 - London.
