I'm an American citizen that analyzes the world situation and interprets the limited information
released from governments and reported by the media. I've always had a fascination about
intelligence gathering, and my website will be a way of harnessing my passion for the subject.

To understand the world we currently live in, we first have to realize that ethnic races do not have anything to do
with hate and bigotry. The Germans did not kill millions of Jews in World War II. The followers of Adolf Hitler and
the Nazi party were the source of hatred and murder. Many Germans who refused to follow Hitler were either
jailed or murdered themselves. When the Germans invaded Poland in World War I, the Jews welcomed the
Germans as liberators after being under the Russian Czar control. Jews and Germans had good relations, but
when Hitler came to power it changed everything.
The Iranian people until 1979 were allies with Israel. But after the Ayatollah Khomeini deposed the Shah, the
Iranian leadership now seeks the total destruction of Israel’s existence.
In 1981 Egyptian President Anwar al-Sadat was killed by Arab terrorists because he promoted and signed a
peace agreement with Israel. Today Mid-East leaders are still hesitant to show any kind of support for Israel lest
they become the same target.
You see, it’s not a race or nation we should label as our enemy, but the ideas and philosophy of groups and the
leaders that can sway the hearts and minds of the masses.
So why invade a nation if their not the enemy? The western world only fights wars against armies, groups, and
leaders that threaten or harm their interests. With the proliferation of weapons around the world, governments
like North Korea and Iran have shown they can threaten and harm any nation in the world.
History should teach us that tyrants and dictators only show up when nobody has the strength or the moral clarity
to confront them. You maintain strength by investing in a strong military defense. You maintain moral clarity by
identifying a threat and taking action before it attacks your interests. This is why we need a strong national
defense. -Matthew Best
