If allowed to fester (and it already has a sickening, puss-filled head on it), it will draw more disaffected nations to it and ultimately become a larger threat to ourselves and liberty thoughout the world than the Nazis and Imperial Japanese became in the 1930s and 1940s, and will cost more to put down. We (meaning the United States and our true allies) need to act forcefully economically and militarily now to prevent that from happening.
I agree with you completely, Jeff. And, of course you have said it in a much more concise way than I’ve been able to up to this point — Thank you. I only hope more people will start to see what is so incredibly obvious to so many of the rest of us (at least here at FR).
