Twelve Reasons to Love the U.S.A., VII.

“7.  The U.S. military is the greatest defender of freedom in the world.  Twice in the twentieth century, the United States led the way in saving the world from tyranny–first from the Axis Powers, then from Soviet totalitarianism.  Throughout history, other superpowers have used armies to conquer territory and build empires by force.  America, with its unrivaled military, has chosen a different course.  The United States has liberated more people from tyranny than any other nation in history.” — William J. Bennett, The American Patriot’s Almanac, p.35.
