"....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.
