The Longest Days
Dedicated To Liberty's Defenders
The Longest Day refers to the allied invasion of Nazi-held Europe on June 6, 1944. It is a special term that has significant meaning. The Longest Day was the massive project which led to the successful end of World War II. Most people alive today merely existed that day and reaped the benefits, or inherited the comforts made possible by efforts applied during The Longest Day. On that day, three million men fought the Nazi machine while witnessing the death of men standing inches away from them.
The civilized world is now engaged in its next struggle for survival of liberty, justice and values. Today each day is a longest day for all civilized people. Some people fail to recognize their mandate to defend and retaliate. They fail to perceive the looming endangerments. Today's war, the War Against Terrorism which is blossoming into World War III, will not be won, and can not be effectively fought, with passivity and energy-wasting, contentious fighting amongst ourselves.
Today's war may only be won by unified, concerted, long-term dedication to liberty, justice and the value of the individual. Our failure to withstand the motivations of the fanatical onslaught by those who prefer to die rather than coexist peacefully will surely result in stalemate at best. A stalemate will force civilization into an open-ended need to defend itself on every street corner, building, business, all transportation, and computer systems. Widely visible self-defense will create fear and paranoia that will undermine freedom and individual comfort. Civilization will lose its ability to progress. In this situation, fanatics will inhibit and paralyze civilization.
Each civilized human being has many longest days ahead. Arrogance, ignorance, lack of concern, and contentious diversions will distract war efforts and lengthen the longest days of WWIII.
About Our Longest Days
You may be concerned about global warming, oil shortages, and any number of cultural diversities, diversions and irrelevancies. Your personal life may be as empty as other people's heads (certainly not yours). This site presents facts, issues, problems & advantages derived by appropriate handling of today's war. Civilization's objective must be aggressive:  Survival and ending this war that was started by fanatical, inept, uncivilized, under-educated, unreasonable bullies.
Liberty, progress, and civilization's values must be defended or they will be taken away.
Quick. Wrong. Dead.
Quick. Wrong. You Are Dead. And so it is with excuses to avoid retaliation & self-defense in our involuntary struggle to survive.  Read the story.
Our ability to perceive, comprehend, and deal with the War Against Terrorism, WWIII, global warming, and energy sources and efficiencies will determine our directions and how well we evolve. But we will need to overcome today's weakened, arrogant, ignorant culture of divisiveness.
About The Longest Days
Liberty, progress, and civilization's values must be defended or they will be taken away.
The Longest Day, D-Day, June 6, 1944, involved 3 million men fighting for their lives and liberty. Today's longest days have conscripted all civilized people. Many people fail to comprehend that they must defend themselves. If not defended, many people will lose what they so blindly accept as their rights.
We have not yet ended the beginning and the midway point is years away.

Certain Uncertainties Exist
The uncertainties of war make all else in life appear as solid as the Rock of Gibraltar.  Uncertainties do not exist in predicting which force will win the War Against Terrorism or most battles on any specific terrorism front.  Uncertainties do exist in how long it will take and what the cost in valuable human life will be to accomplish all that will be accomplished.
Murtha's Mirth
Questions here are addressed to US Representative John Murtha who calls for withdrawal of nearly all US military force from Iraq. If his demands were implemented in the next months before Iraq is able to defend itself from internal and external threats, demagogues and fanatics, what would happen?  Read the story.
Fortitude
Deadly remnants of resistance will remain for the foreseeable future throughout Iraq... and the world.
Difficult battles & dreadful casualties still lie ahead in the War Against Terrorism, WWIII.
For those who believe in timetables for exiting Iraq & other battlefronts:
Will you tell your current employer when you plan to quit several months beforehand?
Why not?
Our longest days will be endured by each civilized person. These longest days will not only be suffered by three million men dying, bleeding, and suffering by land, sea & air in Europe.
Pain & Price
Some people remember when 5,000, 6,000, 7,000 Americans died just to gain a foothold on some crappy little South Pacific island. And remember that the island was abandoned to continue progressing to end the Japanese terror.  Read the story.
It's About You
Your ability to comprehend and deal with the War Against Terrorism, WWIII, global warming, cultural enigmas & anomalies, energy sources and efficiencies, and all sorts of absolutes and abstractions will determine how well we evolve. Your culture must overcome today's weakened character, and arrogant, ignorant culture of divisiveness.
After Years, There Is No More Time For Gentlemanly Ceremony
Delivered to the Continental Congress in 1775
by Patrick Henry
It is vain, sir, to extenuate the matter.  Gentlemen may cry, Peace, Peace -- but there is no peace. The war is actually begun! The next gale that sweeps from the north will bring to our ears the clash of resounding arms! Our brethren are already in the field! Why stand we here idle?  What is it that gentlemen wish? What would they have? Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!
  Read the speech.
Addicted?
Yes! But not to oil. Americans are addicted to progress, productivity, peace, freedoms, and high quality lifestyles.
Currently oil is the main source of energy.
Within a few decades some smart American scientists will invent and perfect new sources of energy. That event and further improvements will obsolete oil.
Then oil will be no more than a messy, greasy, dirty, oozing pollutant that the civilized world will allow to remain under the sandy feet of the still uncivilized.
Give Peace A Chance
Ongoing, vociferous demands to give peace a chance at all costs serves to embolden potential enemies. Nations going the extra distance to pursue peace embolden belligerents who look for weaknesses. Belligerents are advised that the pursuers of peace will do everything possible to avoid war.
Belligerents know that peace-oriented nations implied guiding policy ensures minimization of self-defense mechanisms and preparedness.
Belligerents expect little to no retaliation from peace-pursuing nations.  Read the story.
The Age of Asymmetric War Arrived September 11, 2001
The guiding principle of asymmetric war is responsive and comprehensive self-defense.
The Age of Asymmetric Policy Arrived March 17, 2003
The Foundation Of Asymmetric Policy Is Self-Defense Is A Primary Responsibility Of All Nations.
Yesterday's friend may not be today's ally. We must judge our friends based upon past performances, today's actions and tomorrow's expectations.
The War Against Terrorism's Multiple Battlefronts
The liberation of Iraq was not Gulf War II. The War Against Terrorism is a global war involving every civilized person in all nations. There are many fronts, each a battlefront within the War Against Terrorism.
