Give me LIBERTY or give me DEATH!
This holds true - we've lost more than anyone could know.
The British never gave up their liberties because people were terrorising their nation. The Isrealis haven't give up their OWN liberties because they are being attacked by terrors.
When we took a step backward and ended our freedoms - no matter how small or in our case today - how large - we gave up everything that made us, us. We gave up everything that seperated us from the evil that we were fighting and/or protecting ourselves against.
Wehn we started torturing people we opened not only our military up to tortore and other problems. By doing something completely against all international laws we've opened ourselves up to justification of their attacks and hatred against up, and have opened everyone up to attacks internationally. International law didn't just protect our soldiers under the Geneva conventions, it protected our citizens at large against attack, being held hostage, etc. under the Warsaw Conventions - READ the back of your airline ticket booklets they slide your ticket into - its all in their - usually highlighting what happens to your luggage - protection for your luggage...
