How Easily We Forget
65 years ago today we were attacked by a nation bent on imposing it's will on others and co-ruling the world. Today we remember those that died in the attack, and the sacrifices others made to avenge their lose, and to protect our nation from those that would destroy it.
But if you look at America today, you would never know that it had happened, you can see that a large majority of the people have forgotten history and the lessons that it teaches us.
FDR gave a speech that day, the Day of Infamy, and a part of that speech is relevant today as it was then:
We are in grave danger again, but other don't or won't recognize that we are. And I am sad to say that another portion of FDR's speech is no longer relevant:
The will of the American people back then was strong enough to fight and win over the Imperialistic and Fascist nations that were bent on ruling the world. But sadly not so now, even though were again confronted by a group of people bent on dominating the world and imposing their religious will upon us, the American people have lost their will to fight, or to even recognize that we are in a war.
The attacks of 9/11 had brought the American people together again, but that strength of will was easily dissipated by the dishonest MSM in conjunction with the anti-American Left.
Our nation is doomed to dhimmihood or destruction unless we regain that same resolve that was displayed in WWII by the American people, they didn't Cut'n'Run, they took it to the enemy, and unfortunately, I can't say the same thing about America today.
Will it take another attack on America to regain the will to preserve our nation? I pray it doesn't, because the next one may cause a lot more harm that the 9/11 attacks, and our nation may not recover because of the dhimmis that exist in America today.

FDR gave a speech that day, the Day of Infamy, and a part of that speech is relevant today as it was then:
"Hostilities exist. There is no blinking at the fact that our people, our territory, and our interests are in grave danger."
We are in grave danger again, but other don't or won't recognize that we are. And I am sad to say that another portion of FDR's speech is no longer relevant:
"No matter how long it may take us to overcome this premeditated invasion, the American people in their righteous might will win through to absolute victory.
I believe I interpret the will of the Congress and of the people when I assert that we will not only defend ourselves to the uttermost but will make very certain that this form of treachery shall never endanger us again.
...
With confidence in our armed forces - with the unbounded determination of our people - we will gain the inevitable triumph - so help us God."
