"Because Without America, There Is No Free World!" And that fact, more than any other, is why the very real devil so much wants us destroyed
Many things bear repeating nowadays - everything worthwhile, anyway. Anyone, especially writers/commentators who are sharing their thinking, broadcast, quickly learn that at least two thirds of the audience they last had either weren’t listening or will have forgotten some of what was said by their next appearance. And at their next appearance, two thirds of the crowd will be brand-new. Such is certainly the case on the cyberstreets of the Internet. And that being the case, I need to repeat the following bit of truth. For those who have heard it already, forgive me…
Geopolitically speaking: there are only two political ideologies at work in the world: belief in Constitutional America and hatred for it. That’s it. Countries that believe in America will adopt its core principles and values. Those that don’t will expend all their energies trying to destroy them.
Destroy them for everyone else*
"The God who gave us life, gave us liberty at the same time: the hand of force may destroy, but may not disjoin them." - Thomas Jefferson
Upon this premise, a Declaration of Independence. . . " proclaimed individual freedom to be Creator-endowed and unalienable!
Other ideas lead to loss of individual freedom in favor of allowing some self-proclaimed "leaders" to claim rights not available to other citizens.
" I should, indeed, with peculiar delight, have met and exchanged there congratulations personally with the small band, the remnant of that host of worthies, who joined with us on that day, in the bold and doubtful election we were to make for our country, between submission or the sword; and to have enjoyed with them the consolatory fact, that our fellow citizens, after half a century of experience and prosperity, continue to approve the choice we made. may it be to the world, what I believe it will be, (to some parts sooner, to others later, but finally to all,) the Signal of arousing men to burst the chains, under which monkish ignorance and superstition had persuaded them to bind themselves, and to assume the blessings & security of self-government. That form which we have substituted, restores the free right to the unbounded exercise of reason and freedom of opinion. all eyes are opened, or opening, to the rights of man. the general spread of the light of science has already laid open to every view. the palpable truth, that the mass of mankind has not been born with saddles on their backs, nor a favored few booted and spurred, ready to ride them legitimately, by the grace of god. these are grounds of hope for others. for ourselves, let the annual return of this day forever refresh our recollections of these rights, and an undiminished devotion to them."
