Is that something you just found out about? We fought Britain twice in two very nasty wars, invaded Canada and Mexico, took the Philippines, Cuba and Puerto Rico from Spain in a war, played some tricks on Columbia to get the land for the Panama Canal, etc, etc. War & diplomacy are not for the feint of heart.

Well, Mr. 2ndDivisionVet, I see you around all the time!

With respect sir!, you make my point exactly! I want Sarah to, as you put it, remember that “War & Diplomacy are not for the feint of heart”. Very well said! Thank you!

So, when I watched her interview live the other night I just felt that there was “perhaps” a little over-exuberance issuing forth from her about Israel and “perhaps”...........just “perhaps”, in her exuberance, she may be forgetting how just 44 years ago, not two centuries ago, our friend Israel got more than a little carried away one day. Maybe it was a 2nd Division Vet who once famously said “I hope we don’t FORGET the lessons we have learned from history so that we don’t repeat them again in the future”. Wanting Sarah to be a success, I just hope she does not forget the USS Liberty. You sound like a true vet, if you are, I’m sure you feel the same way.
