Preparing For Peace, But Getting War

This is Frank Gaffney with the Secure Freedom Minute.

Throughout history a simple principal has been proven again and again, if you want peace, prepare for war. The problem is time after time; particularly Western nations like ours have been tempted to ignore this principal.  They have weakened themselves and in the process actually encouraged their enemies to exploit that weakness.  

Today at the Pentagon President Obama is making the same ghastly mistake, having fundamentally and disastrously transformed the Middle East, emboldened China and ignored rising dangers in our own hemisphere.

We are now hearing brace talk about strategic pivots and maintaining just the capability to fight one war and stave off disaster on another front.  Unfortunately, that‘s all it is, talk. Talk that says to our foes we are preparing for peace and we are likely to get war.
