Defeating Real Evil

To those people on the left...or as it's now called the progressives. To those who think evil is the person cutting down trees in the forest, or persons driving SUV's. To those who fight the killing of baby seals...but defend a woman's right to kill her baby up until birth. To the Cindy Sheehan's of this world and those who stand with her...who think real evil is our President taking our battle with the terrorists to the middle east, drawing them to a centralized place and defeating them over there, instead of on our own shores. To those who call President Bush a murderer and terrorist...and say that America has killed millions of people and is not worth dying for. To those who "want to understand" the people that slaughter living human beings created in God's image...like NIck Berg and countless others.

To those who have trivialize rape by defining it as rape when a women regrets the sex she had the night before. To those can't see the racism in thinking that people of color are unable to meet certain standards...so you lower the standards. To those who are left over from the 60's and 70's...who can't see or acknowledge that you just plain got it wrong. You've made the world a worse place, not better. Your naivety can't be excused when it permits evil to continue to flourish.

Please read the words of my friend Dan Horowitz. He's one who get's it...he understand what real evil is.

"While I have been self described as to the right of Atilla the Hun, perhaps in my old age I have become more tolerant of some things which I previously have condemned. But one thing that I have learned in my life is that evil is best fought with the barrel of a gun. You do not defeat tyrants with words, resolutions,self doubt, offers of therapy, you defeat tyrants by standing up to them, refusing to be cowed and when all else fails, military action. How many of my relatives would still be alive if during the beginnings of world war two the British and French tried using force versus appeasement? Peace in our time as said by Neville Chamberlain resulted in the deaths of millions of innocent people."


"Will people never learn that the price of freedom is paid in blood, not speeches! I’ll get off my soapbox now."

Thank you Dan for so eloquently putting into words how to fight evil in this world. Please...don't get off your soap box...it's a message much needed by a naive people.
