More From Ralph Peters

An armed republic submits less easily to the rule of one of its citizens than a republic armed by foreign forces. rome and sparta were for many centuries well armed and free. the swiss are well armed and enjoy great freedom. among other evils caused by being disarmed, it renders you contemptible. it is not reasonable to suppose that one who is armed will obey willingly one who is unarmed; or that any unarmed man will remain safe among armed servants.

Non-violence and cowardice are contradictory terms. non-violence is the greatest virtue, cowardice the greatest vice. non-violence springs from love, cowardice from hate. non-violence always suffers, cowardice would always inflict suffering. perfect non-violence is the highest bravery. non-violent conduct is never demoralising; cowardice always is.

Senator mcgovern is very sincere when he says that he will try to cut the military budget by 30%. and this is to drive a knife in the heart of israel... jews don't like big military budgets. but it is now an interest of the jews to have a large and powerful military establishment in the united states... american jews who care about the survival of the state of israel have to say, no, we don't want to cut the military budget, it is important to keep that military budget big, so that we can defend israel.

I worked with the nato military committee. the head of the luxembourg armed forces had equal standing with me, and i had to respect that. he was the leader of the armed forces of a sovereign country. i had to make sure he never thought that i was looking down on them, merely because they had less power than we did. with that kind of approach you can develop bonds of trust. i tried to do the same thing with my colleagues when i was secretary of state.

The political world is changing rapidly. what the establishment has learned, what the democratic establishment, the republican establishment, the media establishment, is the world is not quite what they thought it was. with the middle class disappearing, with people working longer hours for lower rages, with people worried about the future of their children, what you are seeing is a lot of discontent at the grassroots level all over this country. and that's what's going on right now.

If you withdraw the incredible focus on polio, it will spread back, and in poor countries you'll get something like 100,000 cases a year. so by being very intense and getting the cases down to zero, what you do is you avoid all the future cases.
