Political Correctness Will Kill Us ... Part 9



"All that is required for evil to triumph is for a few good men to do nothing." --Edmund Burke
Post 9/11: This Is The New Reality
  • We are in for the fight of our lives.
  • That we have not yet had another terrorist attack in the United States is remarkable, but it will happen. Al Queda keeps its promises.
  • How do I know this? I was born in Lebanon and raised as a Christian. When the Lebanese Civil War broke out, our family, and our Maronite community came under vicious attack by Islamic extremists.
  • They promised to destroy us, and as you know from the recent war in Lebanon, the country is now nearly Islamic.
  • I was nearly killed by a mortar. Our home was destroyed. We lived in a bomb shelter for seven years. Most of my childhood friends were killed. That’s how I know.
  • We must make the connection between individual safety and a strong national defense, increase civic preparation and political responsibility, and train all Americans to become defenders of our community safety and national security.
  • Anguish struck the citizens of the United States of America on 9/11 as a
    handful of hateful men murdered nearly 3,000 innocent people. A heavy pall of grief covered our nation.
  • Many of us wondered if we'd ever laugh again.
  • But 9/11 wasn't the only act of terrorism. Bali, London, Madrid, Jerusalem...the list goes on and on. Yet the West does not fully realize the bloodthirsty intentions of the menace of fundamental Islam.
  • This enemy -- is relentless. It is determined.
