In the past 100 years we were targets of anarchists, Nazis & domestic Bundists, 'Red Terror'.. They were all pretty savvy.

Destroy the premise of this country and we'll be consumed from within. It seems a certain percentage are hell bent on that course, so have at it.

But note this quote from attorney James Donovan who defended Russian spy Rudolf Abel.. "If the free world is not faithful to its own moral code, there remains no society for which others may hunger."
