Sir Winston Churchill Quote

"Still, if you will not fight for the right when you can easily win
without bloodshed, if you will not fight when your victory will be sure
and not so costly, you may come to the moment when you will have to
fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance for
survival. There may be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is
no chance of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as
slaves."

In the war against Islamic fascist terror the easy, sure, inexpensive victory could have been had as recently as the mid 1980s. Thank God that Misters Bush and Blair realize we are quickly approaching that "precarious" time. Pray that their successors don't wait for some more propitious wind to blow, but finish the job.  -- John Anderson, Tacoma
I'm less worried about the manufactured terrorist threat than I am about the covert UN / Banker threat to our liberties. Churchill is right on every level though.  -- J Carlton, Calgary      1

The Christian Church should pay heed to this before it is too late. Which will be very soon!!  -- Wakeupbride, Nprepareforthewedding      1
With the occupying statist theocracy being so intrenched in such large numbers of individuals (by way of example: obedient patrons of god/government compelled compliance, government licenses, victimless crimes, larceny with impunity (2nd plank of the communist manifesto, social security, police state confiscations, non-recognition of perfected allodium/ownership, etc.), denial of inalienable rights, liberty and natural law and promotion of socialism (communism to fascism, progressives to neocons, etc.) I currently believe it is beyond an easy win without bloodshed.  -- Mike, Norwalk      1

To achieve what is right and correct is not going to be accomplished with fighting.  The long laborious challenge to refine and replenish our humanity is the route to the continued existence of the human being.  We are not here to parish, enslave, or be slaves,  but to make excellent representation of the life dimension.     -- Fredrick William Sillik, Anytown
