War works.

War saved us from the Hitler vision , wars (Korea, Vietnam, etc) demonstrated that the US would resist the Soviet domination and eventually liberated millions from the Marxist dogma, WWI destroyed the Muhammedian Ottoman empire, WWII destroyed the aggression of the Japanese empire, created a democratic society, faithful ally of the US, and an economic powerhouse and a better life for all concerned. While armed conflict is to be avoided, not at all costs. We as a nation have survived because we will use overwhelming force to defeat those who attack us. Whether the Nazis, communists, or Muhammedians.
