The Islamicists think they've got us confused and demoralized, which makes future aggression more likely. But they have no idea how fiercely we'll fight when it is our neighborhoods, our homes, and our families that are threatened.

True, to a point. However, there are alot more clueless sheeple who will break and bow at the first sound of the guns and other people living off of this country's wealth and resources who harbor no allegiance to our sovereignty. I agree with your sentiment and it still gives me hope, but we're not the same nation we were in 1941- unfortunately.

I'll ask you to consider that a significant number of American colonists - perhaps even a majority - were Loyalists at the outset of the American Revolution. Victory over a foreign aggressor takes fierce resolve more than numerical superiority. The Russian defenders of Stalingrad, who had only recently been allied with Hitler, taught the Nazis all about that. Their losses were terrible, but they inflicted worse on the Wehrmacht. I hope it never comes to such horror here, but I have no doubt that any foreign power desirous of conquering America will be made to pay a terrible price, for true heroes and leaders are made when the cost of failure is slavery and worse.
