The following Editorial appeared in the Waco TX newspaper this past Monday. I think it is very appro to what faces our country for the future.
In the 1930's the United States was isolationist. Most Americans wanted nothing to do with foreign wars.
This changed on December 7, 1941 when Japan attacked Pearl Harbor. Shortly thereafter the US declared war on Japan and Germany. But why Germany,it had not attacked America. It was seeking to subjugate a continent.
Our Allies were few,England,Scotland,Canada Austrailia and Russia. The balance of Europe was under Germany's control. Both Germany and Japan were developing plans to invade the United States through Canada and Mexico. But Germany needed to defeat Russia and Japan had to control the far east. The decision to decalare war on Germany was a dicey one but if Russia had surrended Hitler could then focus his entire war effort agains Britain and America.
Now we are at another such moment.
Radical Muslims now have or will soon possess the much ridiculded weapons of mass destruction that probably were passed on when Hussein was defeated.
A broad war rages in the middle east. It is a war between reformists and forces of the inquistion.
Reformists are moderate Muslims who can live in peace with the West and produce a prosperous tolerant Middle East. The inquistion cosists of Wahhabis and Jehadis whp would mandate Sharia law and basic human rights would disappear. They would control OPEC and thus many Western and Asian economies.
It is DIFFICULT to understand why the average American does not grasp this. We seem to favor human rights,civil rights and liberty and freedom here but not for the Iraqis.
Peace Activists will demonstrate here in America where it's safe but not in Iran,Syria,Iraq.Sudan North Korea in the places that need it the most becuse if they demonstrate there they would be killed.
Amerians favor human and civil rights etc. But if the Jihad wins it is the end of these rights. Those who oppose the liberation of Iraq are coming down on the side of their own worst enemy.
