 Hi Christopher,
 You hit the nail on the head. No country will be free unless its
 citizens are willing to lay down their lives for that freedom.
 To quote Thomas Jefferson; "The tree of liberty must be refreshed from
 time to time with the blood of patriots."
 It IS our willingness to "kick ass and take names" that allows us the
 freedoms we enjoy today.
The USA is only willing to kick the ass of countries without significant
military forces to oppose it.
