So why is it some Canadians want to emasculate our military, pretend we are not who we are, and create this revised, foolish history of the country as a North American Switzerland, sitting out conflicts no matter how obvious the necessity of intervention?
It is not because they want peace and pacifism; it is because they want neutrality and, ultimately, the triumph of our enemies.
We saw this during the Cold War when, in the guise of peacefulness, various fellow travellers and leftist agitators actually wanted the Soviets to dominate.
Today we see something similar in the struggle against Islamofascism.
From special interest groups, to writers at the Toronto Star, to commentators on the CBC, we are drenched by waves of anti-American propaganda, explaining the war on terror is a costly failure, and we should be the honest broker in all this and not take sides.
If only we understood Islam, we are told by patronizing dullards, all would become clear.
Well, I do understand Islam, and the Middle East, and unlike these extremists I also understand the U.S.
It’s not about Canada taking sides, it’s about Canada being Canada.
