The whole idea of our forward strategy -- the Mahan Doctrine -- of the last 110 years is to avoid fighting a major war against major adversaries on U.S. soil.
The men who wrote the Mahan Doctrine, Adm. Mahan, President McKinley, and President Theodore Roosevelt, had all seen what a major war on U.S. soil looks like -- McKinley had been a captain in the Civil War, and Roosevelt saw the South after the war. The reality of war, is what the Mahan Doctrine is based on, and the extreme desirability of seeing to it that something like that never again happen on U.S. soil.
Fact: Almost half a million people died in the United States as collateral casualties of the Civil War -- almost as many as actually died on battlefields and in prison camps and field hospitals; and many of them were civilians. It was a major war that killed 3% of the U.S. population of 1860.
THAT is what fighting a major war at home, as opposed to overseas or on the high seas, means.
We must NEVER accept a war here at home. EVER.
Of course. We would never but I wouldn't put it past Soros, Hussein, and half the SCOTUS and Congress to allow it. The way things are going, especially with who knows who all has been allowed inside our country legally, illegally, or who forgot to go home after their stay, and with Hussein standing by his homies, well...
