Does the writer expect us to believe that Jews in a raft came here from Poland or Germany and made it to Ellis Island? That insults our intelligence. Atrocity stories, real or imagined, committed by foreign nations have nothing to do with the United States who willingly sacrificed the lives of hundreds of thousands of her youth to defeat two of the three great tyrannies of the war. Let's not.

I posted the my last post from the words of a sailor stationed on a mine sweeper between 1942-1945. He was my grandfather. The times before world war II is no different from the times we live in today. Unemployment was high under the Roosevelt administration. The programs of the Roosevelt administration built a new work ethic. The working class was proud to take care of the old. This is when Social Security was born. My grandfather lived through Korea, and Vietnam and Grenada. He was upset that we were selling this country down the river to Japan. He carried a picture, old and falling apart, of the Jews in the concentration camps. His friends told him that story you are now challenging me with as a myth. When Polish Jewish refugees escaped from Hitler's Nazi German rule and made it to the United States. And how at the time the United States turned them away. They were later found in the concentration camp.
I am all for Trump, not letting in the terrorist immigrants. I am against any government of these United States to use that rule against innocent people. However, it is the terrorist, that makes it harder for the innocent to come here. We have saved the world time and time again. We saved them from the evils of the world. We saved them from Hitler, we saved them from the Nazis and we saved them from Communists. But we have yet to save them from terrorists. The terrorist are our problem. The terrorist is our cross to bare. We should eradicate the terrorist.
Society of Europe has born the Nazis and the Marxist Idea of Communism. Both ideas came from the Middle East. Our organized religions, from Christianity, Judaism, Muslim and Hinduism come from the Middle East. Civilization started in Mesopotamia. But no matter where its origin is, the same evil has followed us all over the world. For now Fascism and Communism is held at bay, but the dictators that still follow the old and now ancient feudal system still rise to power in the area of our origin.
Fact remains, no matter how much ink, or how much thought we put into it, evil will find away to use it against us for our destruction. For us to conquer this evil, we must find a simple method, to eradicate the evil. President Trump indirectly took a stand. He said to the rest of the world that America shall not be pushed around by these evil terrorists. Now it will be argued, Was President Trump right in his action? For what it seems like a generation from Clinton to Trump, the United States was pushed around, and now Trump took a stand against the CHEMICAL BURNING OF INNOCENT MEN, WOMEN and CHILDREN. Take a step back and remember why we fought World War II. Take a step back and remember all of those who lost their lives so that we could live.
Their stories are being forgotten. The only time in recent years when these stories come to light, the stories are being used for some political greedy reason. We have successfully fought against racism in this country. But racism in the world doesn't seem to end. Do you understand that the Muslim Terrorists believe that since you do not believe the same way they do, that they were commissioned by God, to make you a slave? We must stand up against this. If you believe that black people should be counted with white people as American citizens, then you should also believe that the terrorists, the Muslim terrorists are 1000 times worse than the Klu Klux Clan.
The same fight against the Clan is the same fight against Muslim terrorists. When will it stop? Do we stay out of Syria, the same country Saddam Hussein smuggled Iraq's weapons of mass destruction of 2002, to Syria! How did a leader, one who is currently involved in a major civil war, get a hold of these weapons? Ask these questions. Then understand why the President must make a statement that would be heard around the world.
Wyatt Earp, played by Kurt Russel, in the movie Tombstone, said to Ike Clanton, "I see a man wearing a red sash, I kill a man wearing the red sash. Run you cur, Run. Tell the other curs I'm coming, the law is coming, I'm coming and hell is following."
It is about time, that a president of these united States, would use the same rhetoric against the terrorists. The terrorists call it, "Who do you think you are? John Wayne?", Well maybe its overdue that John Wayne come out in all of us. One thing can be said about John Wayne, in all of his movies, He was strong. He was straight, and He was forceful, and he was arrogant, and he made his point and everyone listened. They thought Trump was weak. Trump showed different. As the savior of the free world we Americans do not run. Remember these colors do not run. If we do not stand and fight right now, like we didn't fight after World War I, if we isolate ourselves we will never be free. We must put down this new evil. The Communists are gone, Nazis are gone. All that is left are the terrorists. Putin is weak. Putin is on the wrong side with Iran and Syria.
Picture a Nazi Communist regime, that holds the same principles as the Muslims. Picture living in that society, where if you are Christian, if you believe in Christian Ideals, it is a capital crime. You will be beheaded, you will be crucified, you will be hanged, you will be now gassed. We as a nation cannot allow this to continue.
This is the true reality. Say its over there. Well on September 11, 2001, and on December 7, 1941, over there came over here!
