Hostile to Liberty
Disastrous, Misplaced Power
“In the councils of government, we must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the military-industrial complex. The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists and will persist. We must never let the weight of this combination endanger our liberties or democratic processes. We should take nothing for granted." -Dwight D. Eisenhower, 1961
The Danger of Increased Security
"There is little value in ensuring the survival of our nation if our traditions do not survive with it. And there is very grave danger that an announced need for increased security will be seized upon by those anxious to expand its meaning” -John F. Kennedy
War Is Not What It Seems
"War is just a racket... something that is not what it seems to the majority of people. Only a small inside group knows what it is about. It is conducted for the benefit of the very few at the expense of the masses." -Brigadier General Smedley D. Butler, Former Commander U.S. Marine Corps, 1933
