Regarding all of these anti-war protestors. They do not have a clue what is coming.

People,

I recently received the chain e-mail below.
Though I am fairly certain the individuals propagating
this are well-intentioned, so was an individual named
Nevel Chamberlin, who also believed in "peace in our
time." Nevel looked at Hitler as a man who could be
reasoned with. Nevel never even began to see the true
evil of Hitler's plans. Within a decade of
Chamberlin's policy of appeasement, over 6,000,000
Jews and other "unclean" people had been put to death
by the Nazi regime. Ironically, Chamberlin had no
idea that Hitler would use gas on his victims.
However, this time, we are dealing with a mad man, who
not only rules by terror and tyranny, but he has in
fact used chemical gas on both his enemies (the
Iranians) and his own people (the Kurds).

So, as you yellow-bellied self-sanctified
liberals type away on your computers in reasonable
safety, remember that it wouldn't take much for a
"dirty bomb" or other chemical disbursement delivery
device to be set off in the parking lot of a major
sporting event or other large crowd gathering. If you
think what happened with the twin towers has horrific,
then wait until you hear the horrendous cries of
innocent people suffering from nerve gas exposure.
Wait until you see the results of human skin coming in
contact with blister agents. Wait until terrorists
start blowing themselves up on American soil. Most of
this will probably be captured by our faithful media
in full living (so to speak) color. Maybe, just
maybe, you will understand that there are times when
war is justified.

There is an old saying that “those who do not
study history are doomed to repeat its mistakes.” If
you have never heard, or understood, the story of
Nevel Chamberlin and Adolph Hitler, I urge you to
search the internet and do some investigating. The
situation unfolding today is very similar to what
happened so many years ago. However, this time we are
much more prepared to deal effectively with the
threat.

On a personal note, as a veteran with over 18
years of military service, I can’t say that I am eager
to see people die. Military people always prepare for
war and pray for peace. That said, if I am called, I
will answer. I have taken an oath, a sacred vow to
defend my country against all enemies, both foreign
and domestic. Most of you, who have never had the
honor to serve your country will never fully
understand this concept. Again, I hope that you can
continue to live your lives in relative peace and
security. In the mean time, you can take all your
petty little war protests and shove them where the sun
doesn’t shine! Go join the French for all I care.
They have been stomped twice by evil forces. And
twice we have had to save their buts. I really
wouldn’t mind seeing them get trashed again just to
snap them out of their arrogance. At the very least,
maybe they should tour the graves of the thousands of
Americans who gave their lives to liberate that
country.

If military action is taken, I don’t expect to
see “thousands of Americans coming back in body bags”
as Sadam Hussein has threatened. I expect that you
will see the surgical precision of the previous Gulf
War, with many improvements (as we have had over a
decade to improve our technology). We are not going
after civilians (like Sadam Hussein has), we are going
to neutralize his fighting capability… by whatever
means it takes. Get a clue, get a life! Study
history and learn something. I will leave you with
the words of our last 5-star general, Douglas
MacArthur… "For history teaches with unmistakable
emphasis that appeasement but begets new and bloodier
war. It points to no single instance where the end has
justified that means-where appeasement has led to more
than a sham peace. Like blackmail, it lays the basis
for new and successively greater demands, until, as in
blackmail, violence becomes the only alternative." -
General of the Army, Douglas MacArthur
