The American people are so much stronger, so much more resolved than any enemy can fully understand.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
The United States has to have the capability to deal with more than one enemy at one time and be able to confront them and win.
The prescription for endless war poses a far greater danger to Americans than perceived enemies do, for reasons the terrorist organisations understand very well.
I think Americans understand that in Afghanistan, unlike in Iraq and Vietnam, we are fighting an enemy allied with the people who attacked us on 9/11.
Therefore, every country has to understand that fighting against international terrorism is not for the sake of the United States, but for the sake of themselves, and, to a larger extent, in the name of stability of international relations.
I think that our weakness is understanding that when we go to war, we go to war to win.
Our enemies and allies alike must know that aggressors will pay an unspeakable price for challenging the United States. The best way to impose that price is global military dominance.
Whether you are a Democrat or a Republican, our nation is stronger when we are respected throughout the world.
There is no better way to give comfort to an enemy than to divide the people of a nation over the issue of foreign war. There is no shorter road to defeat than by entering a war with inadequate preparation.
The way Americans understand and treat other peoples almost guarantees that the world will suffer more trouble.
The American people need to know that there are folks here fighting as hard as they can for individual liberty, economic freedom, appropriate national security and the fundamental moral values that have made our nation the greatest nation in the history of mankind.
