Put Liberalism on the back-burner

WARNING: This is Version 1 of my old archive, so Photos will NOT work and many links will NOT work. But you can find articles by searching on the Titles. There is a lot of information in this archive. Use the SEARCH BAR at the top right. Prior to December 2012; I was a pro-Christian type of Conservative. I was unaware of the mass of Jewish lies in history, especially the lies regarding WW2 and Hitler. So in here you will find pro-Jewish and pro-Israel material. I was definitely WRONG about the Boeremag and Janusz Walus. They were for real.

I’ve told many of you liberals that you don’t comprehend that we’re at
war, that all of your concepts have to be put on the shelf. These are
concepts of an American liberal society that is at peace. But you can’t
take them for granted in a time of national emergency.

You have to understand that liberalism doesn’t work well when applied to
foreign policy and defense. It fails miserably. Liberalism is very good
at reforming society domestically. I may disagree with some of their
reforms, or most of them, but liberals are good at reforming society. In
some areas I agree, such as civil rights, but I don’t agree when it comes
to other areas of reform.

Liberalism may work at reforming domestic policy; it fails, however, when
it comes to foreign policy and defense. Do you know why?

There’s a scholar at Harvard by the name of Samuel Phillips Huntington
and he’s been around a long time. He’s a mild-mannered man and he writes
brilliantly. He wrote a book in 1957 entitled “The Soldier and the
State.” He warned in his book:

“America’s liberal society requires the protection of a professional
military establishment steeped in Conservative realism. In order to keep
the peace, military leaders had to take for granted and anticipate their
rationality, weakness, and evil in human nature. Liberalism doesn’twork
when applied to foreign policy and defense. Foreign Policy is not about
the relationship among individuals living under the rule of law but about
the relationship amongst states and other groups operating in largely
lawless realms.”

When he first wrote the book, Huntington’s liberal colleagues denied him
tenure — for writing what was true.

One of the main points, and the one to take home, is that the laws the
liberals want to force down our throats are good only when our national
security can be taken for granted. Huntington argues that “Liberalism
thrives only when our national security can be taken for granted” and he
warned that in the future, the United States may not have that luxury.

So, in other words, it’s time to put liberalism on the back burner. We
can revisit the philosophy called liberalism when we are all secure
enough to do so, but this is not the time to impose such thinking
onourselves. If we do, we are going to lose the war against terrorism.
