This is a little off the standard talk for this list but when someone 
ventures into the political area they're fair game.

"Fighting Might with Right" has been the classic habit of what I would 
call the broad democratic opposition.  It's results have not been good.  
It is well to remember that the US won the war against Japan because, 
among other things it had 2x the population, 10 times the industrial 
capacity, vastly greater natural resources and above all far more 
engineers and mechanics.  They also planned for that war and it's 
initiation.  Surely you're aware that Pearl Habour, Clark Field (in 
Manila) etc. was a setup.

The real task is to devise a strategy that will AQUIRE the necessary 
might for might.

I believe it is an honourable thing for a citizen to volunteer, and we all do it in our own way.  Many have become comfortable with this, and many are learning to.
