Richard Gere, is that you?
The Japanese hoped to catch America’s carriers in port, and knock us out of a potential war.
UBL hoped to engage America in a potential war, And in that, he succeeded.
Until we put an end to Islam there will be no peace with Islam.
Maybe someday civilized people will awaken to this fact.
I felt like we lost when Hussein was elected.
"January 6, 1942 "Our enemies are guided by brutal cynicism, by unholy contempt for the human race. We are inspired by a faith that goes back through all the years to the first chapter of the Book of Genesis: "God created man in His own image." We on our side are striving to be true to that divine heritage. We are fighting, as our fathers have fought, to uphold the doctrine that all men are equal in the sight of God. Those on the other side are striving to destroy this deep belief and to create a world in their own image—a world of tyranny and cruelty and serfdom. That is the conflict that day and night now pervades our lives. No compromise can end that conflict. There never has been—there never can be—successful compromise between good and evil. Only total victory can reward the champions of tolerance, and decency, and freedom, and faith." - President Franklin D. Roosevelt, SOTU, 1942
Seven years after 911 Muslim Brotherhood captured the White House and we switched sides in the “war on tterror”.
George Bush bothered me with the "Islam is a religion of peace" BS. Then he duped us on Iraq. Obama pushed us further down the rat-hole of M.E. involvement.
Most the greatest generation are dead?
That’s a fact, Jack!
Would love for a public figure to say this live on air, wait for the inevitable outrage from the chattering class, and then tell them it’s a FDR quote. The sounds you next hear are liberal heads exploding.
That’s a fact, Jack!
Always the opposite of the truth.
Difference between 9-11 and Pearl Harbor. Another thought.
Lets see Japan bombed Pearl Harbor but somehow we were led by neocon pied pipers to believe we needed to fritter away trillions and many lives doing regime change and invading Korea (I mean Iraq). The neocons were too stupid to realize that heavy handed secular rulers in the ME actually served our interest and protected Christians and Jews and other minorities, while holding down Muslim extremists.
They were virtually all white.
Yes that bugged me too.
Ixnay, even if they had we would have rebuilt the fleet, prosecuted the war, and utterly defeated Japan. Such was that generation.
"We in this country, in this generation, are – by destiny rather than choice – the watchmen on the walls of world freedom. We ask, therefore, that we may be worthy of our power and responsibility, that we may exercise our strength with wisdom and restraint, and that we may achieve in our time and for all time the ancient vision of peace on earth, goodwill toward men…” - John F. Kennedy, Remarks to have been delivered 11/63 in DallasKennedy’s remarks continued:
“That must always be our goal – and the righteousness of our cause must always underlie our strength. For as was written long ago, ‘Except the Lord keep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain.'”- JFK
Ticked me off to no end when he said that. I lost respect for the man every time he said it until by 2006 I couldn't stand the sound of his voice.
Another great quote, thanks for sharing.
