“Giving Peace a Chance” is great but some how we have lost the idea of carrying a “Big Stick”. Remember the saying “I don’t care if they hate me, as long as they fear me.”? If this isn’t true, why do we have the most powerful Military in history? The problem today is that we have a government that wants to talk nice to our enemys, instead of standing up our Military and say “Don’t mess with us or we will come at you like a sleeping giant.” This last statement is what keeps others aware that we can be their friends, but on our terms. We have lost that somehow.

Giving peace a chance in the way he meant it is a childish denial of reality, as MDC demonstrated. The world is not a nice place. It’s not that hard to grasp.

The guy was a revolutionary communist. The "peace" stuff was BS. Read the interview I posted.
