The greatest invasion of all history is now on be
cause of the greatest invasion of all time of the rights
of all men. The stakes are large but the grandeur of
our operations in Europe reveal how determined we
are to restore civilization to its highly attained nor
mal basis. The prayers of all our allied nations, from
country church to great cathedral, led by the martial
hymn, “Onward Christian Soldier.” show how sin
cere is our purpose to bring the world back to the
paths of the Prince of Peace.
America is a peace loving nation, and our history
has shown how well we have developed the practices
and arts of peace. We have never sought war, but
we have always fought attacks on our ways of life.
We have developed the resources of happiness and
general welfare of our citizenship like no other na
tion in all history. At times, in the contentment of
our pursuits, we have slept on their importance and
the necessity of vigilance in their protection. We
may have believed too much that the world would
take example of a God fearing democracy, and
change its ways, but we have never lost the militancy
in our souls, inspired by our forefathers and the pio
neers in our multiple developments. At no time has
a free American citizen feared to fight for what was
right. At no time have our people, as individuals or
as massed armies, been unwilling to defend our pur
poses and our institutions to the limit of our abilities,
and we have always been successful. We martial
our resources willingly and we send our sons forth
with the injunction of the ancient Grecian mother,
“to return with their shields or upon them”.
This war is global and through it we will become
global in our power and influence. It may seem a
terrible price to pay, but through the logic of history
this is our destiny. We are now the most powerful
nation on earth and we cannot shirk the responsibili
ty of this power. Our strength lies in our great pur
poses toward the welfare of humanity by the destruc
tion of tyranny and the advancement of individual
opportunity. We are not aggressors against other
nations, nor are we aggressors against any good citi
zen. We are free and our ideas of freedom, we hope,
will be established throughout the entire world.
That is why we invade. We are seeking the liber
ation of conquered countries, and the destruction of
ideologies that subjugate peoples; and the re-estab-
lishment of our own freedom against all danger from
without.
