Fighting islamism is eventually going to take every bit of military and intelligence capability that we can secure.
Read Henry V’s soliloquy before his army’s taking the Shakespearean field at Agincourt.
I believe war is somehow in our genes as a species. We could all use Captain Kirk’s philosophical, “I’m not going to kill, today. That’s all it takes. I’m not going to kill...today” approach. Yet hesitate, and your enemy’s got the drop on you. Witness 9/11.

I’m 66 and I got this feeling my final days won’t be in a nursing home. As in, I’ll be standing up when that time comes. Weapon in hand. Jihad targets all of us “infidels”.
Henry V’s soliloquy assumed there would be a future when the veterans of Agincourt could observe St. Crispian’s Day. We may not have that luxury.
For now, I’m like the kid in Red Dawn who believed hate is a good thing when it keeps you warm.
Anyway, if Hollywood disapproves of Ted Cruz, then I’m even more determined to support his candidacy.
