Peace Through Strength
The world changed on September 11, 2001. For the first time ever, an outside enemy launched a major attack on the continental U.S., killing more people and wreaking greater havoc than the attack of Pearl Harbor in 1941.
Pearl Harbor led our nation into World War II. 9/11 led us into the Global War On Terror. Romney understands we are a nation at war and that we cannot expect any other country to care about America’s well-being as much as we care about it.
“We face not a local enemy, but an enemy to civilization, and therefore our response must be global and must be sustained and committed. The enemy is emboldened by anything other than the strength of America.”
