GEORGE WASHINGTON STATED

Firearms are second only to the Constitution in importance; they are the peoples' liberty teeth.



First Inaugural Address of George Washington...April 30, 1789

The preservation of the sacred fire of liberty and the destiny of the republican model of government are justly considered as deeply, perhaps as finally, staked on the experiment entrusted to the hands of the American people.

The Second Amendment of the U.S. Constitution

A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.

The First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

Abraham Lincoln said:

"In this age, and in this country, public sentiment is everything. With it, nothing can fail; against it nothing can suceed. Whoever molds public sentiment goes deeper than he who enacts statutes, or pronounces judicial decisions."

James Madison Declared

The adversaries of the Constitution seem to have lost sight of the PEOPLE altogether in their reasonings on this subject; and to have viewed these different establishments not only as mutual rivals and enemies, but as uncontrolled by any common superior in their efforts to usurp the authorities of each other. These gentlemen must be reminded of their error. They must be told that the ULTIMATE AUTHORITY, wherever the derivative may be found, RESIDES IN THE PEOPLE ALONE.

U.S. Dept. of State....DUMB?

  1. Balfour Declaration of 1917
  2. Palestinian Mandate of 1922
  3. Peel Commission of 1936
  4. UN Partition Plan for Palestine of 1947
  5. Oslo Accords of 1993
  6. Camp David Offer of 2000
Other assorted "peace talks":
  • Madrid Peace Conference of 1991
  • Wye River Memorandum of 1995
  • Oslo II of 1995
  • Taba of 2001
  • Road Map for Peace of 2003
  • Geneva Accord of 2003
These were all the "official" "peace talks" that were conducted between Israel and the Arab world. The one thing they all have in common is the exerting a constant pressure on Israel to make multiple and unreciprocated concessions to the Arab world. All of these so called "peace talks" have resulted in agreements which Israel has tried to keep and the Arab world has NOT. Now beginning on Sept. 2 in Washington the U.S. State Department wants new Middle East "peace talks" to begin.

What folly; how can Israel deal with the Arab world when since 1917 the Arab world has not kept their side of agreements. This is a waste of time and just enables the agenda of the Arab world to make slow steady progress by continuing their modus operandi and slowly weakening Israel through the use of the "peace talks offence". At some point in time, the U.S. has to draw a line in the sand and say "Enough"! Both parties must live up to the agreements or they are not worth a damn or the shifting political sand and economic policies which have been very generous to parts of the Arab world...the give away of vast sums of American dollars to the partner that does not keep its agreement will be stopped.

When are we, the U.S. going to stop doing dumb things again and again which have never worked in the past and will not change until the political infrastructure in the Arab world changes. Withholding the money may force those political changes to take place...money talks...peace talks walk.
