What it means to 'win'

Let me weigh in on just how corrupted we've let our minds become.

America the great is only great because of conflict resolution. We're the mavericks of the planet and that doesn't sit well with those whose traditions make short work of dissenters and free thinking people in their own societies. Yet, we are at a time in which politics have successfully infiltrated and corrupted our ability to make sound critical decisions on our future.

Give up on your mantras, anti-war rhetoric brought pain, shame to our solders, and a split (during Vietnam) sharper then any colored non-sense we have now. Everybody knows and agrees that war, conflict, death, and every think else that smells of conspiracy is wrong or should have done differently. However, we've allowed schisms and factions to break our resolve, as the world's mavericks, to stand proud as such.

It's complicated, we are in a battle of ideologies. There are those who believe the resolve of Americans can be broken. That your opinions and beliefs are fickle and will fall to their superior belief that they are stronger and that God is on their side not yours. There are those who are hell bent on defacing the government in order to end the war against the previous groupm who believe that we will eventually leave their territory. There are those who believe that we must fight tooth and nail to show, not just the enemy, but the world that America's resolve and triumph stands stronger then any half-baked religious theory our enemies tell their solders.

Central to the core is that none of us are weak or are into giving up. Those who believe we must leave the conflict will not back down, as will those who believe we should fight this conflict to prove our resolve. Strength in ideology and beliefs is America's trump card in this ideological war.

WE DON'T BACK DOWN. Americas don't back down; Not to terrorists, not to our government, not to tyranny. We're fighters... even if it's for peace..

Thus, winning doesn't mean that we kill every last person who rises out of the muck to shoot us. Winning means showing those who hold the belief that America DOES BACK DOWN is completely wrong.

We are strong, we are resolute, you show those terrorists that you don't have any back down (be it to your own government, to their belief that the opposite [leaving or changing your mind] is true, or to anyone who commands you to submit) --

America Always Fights For Keeps and Fights to Win

They lose when we show them our back down switch wasn't broken, it just was never there.
