First Strike is a documentary about nuclear war- what if Russia decided to park 12 subs off the coasts and launch a limited (but crippling) nuclear strike on our military installations and silos...but I've already said too much - I don't want to spoil it completely.

Right, just an interesting snapshot of the times, thats all.

Trivia- part of the footage in First Strike was used in "The Day After"

To be honest, I believe that this complacent thinking with be the only reason the US will fall, and I believe we will fall.

The only reason this hasn't happened yet, be it at the hands of Hitler, the Russians, the Chinese, or even Al Qaida, is because of the battle ready preparedness of our armed forces.

The current trend of becoming a neutered nation is going to change all that.

Trust me. The only reason this hasn't happened yet is because it couldn't. Soon, it will not only be a possibility, but an inevitability.

The United States is losing its resolve by leaps and bounds. Lack of resolve leads directly to servant hood to those who have resolve. And believe me, those who hate us have resolve!

Comforts seem to destroy discipline the fastest no?
