Peace & War
"Si vis Pacem, Para Bellum (to maintain peace, prepare for war)" -Ronald Reagan
"To be prepared for war, is one of the most effectual means of preserving peace." -George Washington
"If you hold your fire until you see the whites of his eyes, you will never know what hit you." -Franklin Delano Roosevelt
"Those who ignore history are doomed to repeat it." --George Santayana
"KGB priority number one at that time was to damage American power, judgment and credibility. ... As a spy chief and a general in the former Soviet satellite of Romania, I produced the very same vitriol Kerry repeated to the U.S. Congress almost word for word and planted it in leftist movements. KGB chairman Yuri Andropov managed our anti-Vietnam War operation. He often bragged about having damaged the U.S. foreign-policy consensus, poisoned domestic debate in the U.S., and built a credibility gap between America and European public opinion through our disinformation operations. Vietnam was, he once told me, 'our most significant success'" -Ion Mihai Pacepa, the highest-ranking intelligence officer ever to defect from the Soviet bloc, commenting about Kerry's anti-American activities during the Vietnam War.
"Guard against the impostures of pretended patriotism." -George Washington
"If not for the disunity created by such stateside protesters, Hanoi would have ultimately surrendered." -North Vietnamese General Vo Nguyen Giap
"It is better by noble boldness to run the risk of being subject to half the evils we anticipate than to remain in cowardly listlessness for fear of what might happen." --Herodotus
"If we are to be completely honest with ourselves, we must admit that there is risk in any course we take." -FDR
"Nearly all men can stand adversity, but if you want to test a man's character, give him power." -Abraham Lincoln
"Perpetual peace is a futile dream." -Gen. George S. Patton
"Nobody knows when total victory will come" -FDR
"Through centuries of struggle, Jews across the world have been witnesses not only against the crimes of men, but for faith in God, and God alone. Theirs is a story of defiance in oppression and patience in tribulation, reaching back to the Exodus and their exile into the Diaspora. That story continued in the founding of the state of Israel. The story continues in the defense of the state of Israel." -George W. Bush
"The world watches for weakness in our resolve. "They will see no weakness. We will answer every challenge ... America is on the offensive, and we will stay on the offensive until the terrorists are stopped and our people are safe." -George W. Bush
"Let every nation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, that we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe to assure the survival and the success of liberty." -John F. Kennedy
"The American people will never stop to reckon the cost of redeeming civilization."
-Franklin D. Roosevelt
"I committed the same kind of atrocities as thousands of other soldiers have committed in that I took part in shootings in free fire zones. I conducted harassment and interdiction fire. I used 50-caliber machine guns, which we were granted and ordered to use, which were our only weapon against people. I took part in search-and-destroy missions, in the burning of villages." John F. Kerry admitting to war crimes, during his congressional testimony in 1971.
"I hope we shall take warning from the example and crush in it's birth the aristocracy of our monied corporations which dare already to challenge our government to a trial of strength and bid defiance to the laws our country." -Thomas Jefferson
"They [Americans] are possibly the dumbest people on the planet ... in thrall to conniving, thieving, smug pricks." -Michael Moore
