Our military doesn't defend our American people. Our military is the strong-arm muscle of corporations.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
The American people have no control over what the military does. We have no say in American foreign policy.
Do not form your judgment about our military doctrine from the assessments given by NATO representatives.
We cannot continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that we've set. We've got to have a civilian national security force that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded.
We don't thrive on military acts. We do them because we have to, and thank God we are efficient.
We need a very strong military to protect the freedoms we do have.
I think we look to the military as something that protects our shores.
I don't live under the illusion we don't need a military to protect this country.
The military is faithful to the constitution. They will come in only to protect the people from the enemies of the state.
The U.S. Military is us. There is no truer representation of a country than the people that it sends into the field to fight for it. The people who wear our uniform and carry our rifles into combat are our kids, and our job is to support them, because they're protecting us.
The U.S. military is the best-trained, most effective fighting force the world has ever known. And the conduct of the vast majority of our service members makes Americans rightfully proud.
