WHAT THE ATTACK ON PEARL HARBOR SHOULD HAVE TAUGHT US

By Bob Walsh

You cannot always trust people who may be your enemies to follow the rules. You cannot always trust people who are not your friends to not take action against you. When you put your opposition into what they believe is a dangerous, untenable position they may react violently. An enemy who thinks they can knock you out with a quick sucker punch may go for it if they think they can get away with it and even if they don't you can be hurt badly in the process.

There are people in the world who want to kill us just because. Pretending they are not out there does not make that any less true. Vigilance is the cost of freedom. It is hard to be vigilant if you have your head up your ass.

Once you have decided it is necessary to fight, fight to win.
