...Hello Daniel (and Rita, fellow ausssie blogger.)<br /><br />I can't thank you enough for putting together the most beautiful words and the most coherent thinking this century has seen. <br /><br />I hope my children quote you as we quote Kipling and Churchill. Brave, brave man. <br /><br />Your thoughts are fresh and vital and honest, and the canary in the mine that we all need to listen to.marienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-71914147558732605322011-05-31T19:01:53.894-04:002011-05-31T19:01:53.894-04:00Thanks Daniel, again a perspective that our so cal...Thanks Daniel, again a perspective that our so called leaders fail to embrace, I think it reflects the moral bankruptcy and lack of humility inherent in their homes for generations, it has always been "Those Others" that have had to fight and die to protect the freedoms they liberaly denounce, they are the weakness our enemies exploit, I keep hoping this current political charade was a cognizant plan to get the left to reveal themselves for who and what they are and that the treason trials and executions will begin, in a similar vein the entitlement class are the masses that the left manipulate and fail to discern thier manipulation and exploitation. Perhaps there is a day of reckoning on the horizon.

I have seen the illustrations in many historical (starting around 1600CE) and semi-recent Haggadahs (the book that is used at the Jewish Passover service/meal. One illustration is invariably of the four (different types of) sons. Until very recent times, the "evil son" is shown as an armored soldier. To the Jews, a soldier was not a friend defending their rights, but an enemy (even if he was from their "own" country) who would rob, kill, and rape. This has been the case into recent times, with the soldiers of Germany and Russia. And the same criteria apply today to the soldiers of any Muslim country.<br /><br />It has been difficult for many Jews to switch their views, and to regard soldiers of the U.S. or even of Israel as being their defenders. It may be gradually changing, but not for the left, who seem to want to keep conditions as they were in the 7th century.Irwin Ruffnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-15610805375329054202011-05-31T09:05:46.191-04:002011-05-31T09:05:46.191-04:00As I am reading them today, in Australia, these wo...As I am reading them today, in Australia, these words of yours are especially balsamic. You see, today Australia lost 2 more brave soldiers in Afghanistan; one murdered by a "rogue" Afghani "soldier" who was supposed to be trained by the Australians, on the "inside". <br /><br />We have lost 27 young soldiers in that war, I know, by far not as many as your country has lost...but still.... <br /><br />Both families who have lost their sons today have asked for anonymity, otherwise I would have sent them your words. As it is, I just hope that they will read them anyway. <br /><br />Thank you.Ritanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-62134937149084150592011-05-31T07:07:25.050-04:002011-05-31T07:07:25.050-04:00As one who knows the high cost of freedom firsthan...As one who knows the high cost of freedom firsthand by the loss of my father in the jungles of Vietnam, thank you for expressing what many of us feel.<br /><br />G-d bless you, Daniel.American Geniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06514913997568552456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-85135936903068074642011-05-31T06:48:51.181-04:002011-05-31T06:48:51.181-04:00Having been born in the Netherlands in 1943 as a J...Having been born in the Netherlands in 1943 as a Jew under German occupation I always feel gratitude towards the allied troops most of which where Americans who often sacrificed their lives to liberate Europe and by their dedication to the cause of good made my survival possible.mindRiderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12160934421830568737noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-76776539243492595762011-05-31T04:51:10.600-04:002011-05-31T04:51:10.600-04:00The Tang Dynasty of ancient China is known to be o...The Tang Dynasty of ancient China is known to be one of the greatest Dynasty in history, it's military power is such that for hundreds of years no neighbor countries did dare to attack it. It's trade had bring prosperity to it's people and had made Tang the richest kingdom at that time. But after many generations it's rulers forgot about the importance of military power, they thought since they are so great no one would dare to challenge them even if they don't significant military power, thus the late rulers began to diminish it's military forces without realize the hungrily watching eyes of it neighbors, the ignorant of it's rulers had finally caused the Tang dynasty being devoured by the Khitan and Mongol. <br /><br />People should learn from history to realize the importance of military in one nation. Chinese has a proverb "Yang Bing I Shi, Yong Zhai I Shi" which can be translated as: Troops have to be maintained all the time so that they can be used when needed. <br /><br />The main purpose of an army is to prevent others attack you, the peace you have right now is the result of their presence.Jasonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12452558340208447014noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-17634787357858618282011-05-31T02:09:09.083-04:002011-05-31T02:09:09.083-04:00Juxtaposisit Switzerland and Israel, both small co...Juxtaposisit Switzerland and Israel, both small countries with a strong well trained peoples army and general conscription. The former only having fought for it's freedom once in the 14th century the latter in constant need of the defensive force. Both strongly knitted societies however and in either only one who served with distinction can grow and become someone in politics or in private enterprise as he/she is known by the band of brothers and has proven his/her merit under stress of battle or heavy training for battle. For contrast look at Northern Europe where defense budgets in the various countries are cut to the bone to such an extent that if the remnant of the army would need stones for a slingshot this would spark a heated financial debate in parliament. A parliament where those sit with untested leadership qualities and those "leaders" in the private sector might have a drill sergeant's loud mouth's but lack the untrained man's test for core strength when the going gets rough, all due to having abolished the defense institutes and claiming loudly "we had peace for the last 66 years in Europe" without even noticing that under the cover of the American shield all ability to defend our own freedom has dissipated in what you Sultan so rightly call the airy dreams of philosophers.mindRiderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12160934421830568737noreply@blogger.com
