Another great one by Thomas Sowell!

It got me thinking about something I got recently in an e-mail from a vet buddy of mine.

I found the link for it, don't know if you've seen it not, Jaz; but it backs up Dr. Sowell's points with music and graphics.

Check it out:

Thanks for posting that link, Smooth. It definitely backs up Dr. Sowell's points.

It is so frustrating to understand these points and have to witness the political extremes the liberal left will go to to regain power while hanging our country out to dry.

Dr. Sowell's postulations relative to the disastrous consequences of the U.S. failures in the Middle East are not only valid; but, should send alarms off in the minds of any clear-thinking American.

I fear for the long-term survival of the United States -- not because of a lack of sheer power; but, because of a loss of National Resolve in employing it, in countering the monumental strategic challenge to the very survival of Western Democracy -- and Christendom -- posed by Islamism.

"We’ll never know the number of dead. (Forty thousand, fifty thousand?) The Americans will never tell, so as not to underline the intensity of this apocalypse."

Anybody have any thoughts on that, from the Fallaci essay?
