Pacifism Kills


All the 1960's retreads and the Hollywood elitists singing Kumbaya and Give Peace A Chance are actually contributing to the very thing they say they're against: War. These "peacniks" actually encourage the enemies of freedom and peace to make war.
George Washington said, "To be prepared for war is one of the most effectual means of preserving peace." The converse is also true, to be unprepared for war is one of the most effectual means of inviting it.
We saw this at the start of WWII. The leaders in the Allied Nations would not listen to the "warmonger" Churchill, so they got a piece of paper from Hitler and declared "peace in our day." The result? The largest and most deadly war in history.
If they would have stopped Hitler at the beginning, which they had the legal right to do, they could have prevented the deaths of millions of people! Millions! Think of that.
The pacifists got us to leave Vietnam. What happened? 100,000 South Vietnamese were executed and hundreds of thousands more became refugees. Meanwhile Pol Pot was murdering millions. Thanks to the weakness pacifists created in America, Communist dictatorships were on the march.
It wasn't until another "warmonger" - Ronald Reagan - came along and pushed his policy of "peace through strength" that the Cold War ended and the Iron Curtain crumbled.
Now all the peaceniks are hollering about Iraq, saying Bush lied (even though he never said anything that their pal Clinton didn't say before) and heaping more criticism on the coalition forces than the terrorist insurgents are.
And what if we had listened to them? Would Hussein be on trial for crimes against humanity, or would he still be in power committing them? Would Bin Laden be hiding in a cave somewhere, or would he be plotting more murder and destruction?
Peace without freedom is not peace. Freedom isn't Free. Pacifism Kills.
