Roy-
You couldn't have said it better, really.
Nobody wants war but there are those
who will force it upon you, unless you
are willing to give them the store or
give up your way of life.
Freedom is not free and there will always
be stronger countries who will need to
look out for the weaker, who choose freedom as well.
We are that country whether we like it
or not; we have to be strong enough to
take the "knocks" which come with this
responsibilty to freedom loving others
who's rights we have to help defend, if
we freedom lovers world-wide are to
survive.
And, of course, if you do not fight "them"
on their shores, you will end up fighting
"them" on your own shores.
History has proved this, again and again.
Cap'n. Bob
