We Need FDR Back
rdfs:comment
by user Towncommons On December 7, 1941, the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor. On December 9, President Roosevelt made an incredibly stirring speech to the nation. I have posted it below. In his words, you hear the echoes of a great nation – echoes of a people that were principled, proud, and willing to sacrifice their lives and their national treasure for freedom and the future of their children. In the speech, Roosevelt explained why war was necessary, why victory was necessary at any cost, and what responsibilities each bore to help achieve that victory. __NOEDITSECTION__

by user Towncommons On December 7, 1941, the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor. On December 9, President Roosevelt made an incredibly stirring speech to the nation. I have posted it below. In his words, you hear the echoes of a great nation – echoes of a people that were principled, proud, and willing to sacrifice their lives and their national treasure for freedom and the future of their children. In the speech, Roosevelt explained why war was necessary, why victory was necessary at any cost, and what responsibilities each bore to help achieve that victory. I think very few people today have read this speech, though it is one that should be required reading for every high school student in this country – as well as every elected official. It is at once incredibly uplifting in the picture it paints of how Americans coalesced and sacrificed to win the Second World War - and it is incredibly saddening in its direct contrasts to our nation and the entire Western world today. Today we face, in Wahhabi / Salafi radical Islam and in a Khomeinist Iran seeking nuclear weapons, essentially the same existential threat that our forefathers faced. Everyone should read this speech to understand the parallels to out current situation and to understand how we, as a nation, once did – and now must – face such threats or be undone. This is a long post. If you wish to continue reading, please do so at Town Commons. __NOEDITSECTION__ From The Opinion Wiki, a Wikia wiki. From The Opinion Wiki, a Wikia wiki.
