U.S. Raid on Libya and ‘Spiral of Violence’
In all honesty, I can only commend President Reagan for the courage he exhibited in this endeavor.
Frankly, there was nothing else left for us to do. Terrorists have been having a “field day” all over the world. It is time for us to stand up and fight. It is also time for us to relinquish our fears of being attacked. The very foundation of our country has been under attack. God, please, let us not forget that America is the “land of the free and home of the brave!” That we are the one country that represents freedom to the rest of the world. So much so that immigrants flee their own countries by the thousands to settle here in peace.
Let us praise our President. A man who has the courage of his convictions and dares to see America as she once was. And one who has the vision of what she can become again. But she will not get there without a fight because she has been passive too long.
Kadafi had it coming to him in some form or fashion. The tragic death of his 15-month-old daughter is but a casualty of the war he instigated himself.
