Rhys,
Our future as a country as we know it is being threatened today. Nothing will ever be the same.
There is nothing more important than the survival of America. Nothing.
A lot of our freedoms have been threatened internally but now is the time to hope and pray that our leaders will set aside partisan wrangling and do the right thing.
There must be terrible and swift retribution against the perpetrators of these acts and the countries that harbored them. Nothing less will satisfy the image of our weakness in the world. A weakness that threatens our very existence.
You must be steadfast in support of America in its time of need.
Nothing any of us do will matter if we allow America to fall to the forces of darkness. Forces that will strip us of our prosperity and freedom, and will enslave us and our children.
Your grandfather's and my father's generation served their country and defeated the German, Italian and Japanese beasts in the '40's and my generation served in facing down the communist beast so that you and I, and our families could live in freedom.
We are face to face with the reincarnation of the Beast. Our very future depends on our resolve.
Be well and be resolute,
Your Uncle
