Protect the country If someone, no matter their station in life, is a true patriot and is honestly looking out for the best interests of the country and pledge their allegiance, they must realize that to do anything else but protect their country and their fellow countrymen is most important over all.

We, the people, did not look for war; war has already been transgressed against us by the killing of thousands of innocent civilians on Sept. 11, 2001 on our home soil.

Did we ask for this? No. Innocent civilians in no way, shape or form asked for such despicable behavior and anyone who would ever infer such a thing is worse than criminal and has some kind of sick, selfish hidden agenda, politics as usual.

Is it unreasonable to believe that we should and must protect ourselves from such people and countries that would perpetrate such atrocities? Let me put it another more succinct way. Are these people, who claim to be Americans trying to make out that our American citizens asked for terroristic and murderous behavior to happen to them?

Do these people think they won’t be nuked right along with the rest of us? Think again. These murderous terrorists are religious fanatics who have lost touch with reality and believe that what they are doing is serving God with the promise of paradise as their reward for murdering anyone who they think is not serving their God. Get it?

Look up about how a representative from England tried to appease Hitler and he ended up with mud on his face for trying to appease such a maniac. “He who does not know history, is doomed to repeat it.”

So, when America is nuked off the face of the earth, will all those who want to appease please stand up? Yeah, just like I thought. Nobody left to stand for anything. Enough said.
