"And we will stand with you to the end. If you choose not to, then all we ask is for you to stay out of the way, we will do this with, or without help.

"To our forces who are fighting on in Asia in the face of monumental odds. Who fight with the knowledge that our relief efforts have failed and that relief is far off, I say: "Fight on.

"Fight this enemy wherever you may find him and out of whatever circ.u.mstances you may find yourself.

Take to the hills if you must, take to the streets, take to the night. They are the enemies of all we believe in and all we as a people stand for.

"Fight on.



"With your weapons, with your fists, with stones and clubs if you must. Fight with your words, fight with non-compliance, fight with your silence. Like an American hero from the Vietnam War, Rocky Versace.

When they captured him and beat him and ultimately marched him off to execute him, he was singing "G.o.d bless America."

"Fight on.

"And never give up. We will make every effort to come for you soon, but if we cannot, do not despair.

As surely as the sun rises in the east, we are coming. The time will arrive when like at Normandy on June 6th, 1944, you will look out and see the sea and the sky filled with the innumerable host of your comrades come to liberate the captive and put down the tyrant.

"To the American people I say, take heart! Yes, armies of tyranny and coercion are on the march in the Middle East and now ominously in Asia. Yes, many of our own have died at the hands of these tyrants.

Yes, some of our friends will undoubtedly fall under the control of these tyrants, but our fathers and grandfathers faced the same threats. The fight for liberty has always been so tested. Like them, America will rise to the challenge and again be the vanguard for liberty for the world. We will liberate the captive and destroy the despot.

"In the mean time,We hold the course .

"We will hold new elections to replace those who have fallen.

"We hold the course.

"We will submit new names for the heads of those agencies to congress for approval where the former leaders have been taken from us.

"We hold the course.

"We will establish, in keeping with the brave example from Idaho that yesterday saved tens of thousands of lives, a national Homeland Defenders, a Home Guard program. This program will be established at the local level, allowing any American to sign up and defend infrastructure in this nation in the best traditions of local militia and deputized civilians defending their own.

"We hold the course.

"I announce today, two national goals a.s.sociated with the war effort, from which we will not step back even after we win this war.

1. We will betotally energy independent within eighteen months.

2. We will build and deploy an effective anti-ballistic missile s.h.i.+eld for the entire United States within three years.

"We hold the course and that course is liberty!

"It is individual liberty, morality, accountability and responsibility. These are the key ingredients of our success as a people and our way of life.

"To punctuate this, let me close with the following two quotes.

"From the Declaration of Independence: "We hold these truths to be self evident. That all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness."

"The other is from Patrick Henry. "

"We shall not fight our battles alone. There is a just G.o.d who presides over the destinies of Nations, and who will raise up friends to fight our battles for us. The battle, Sir, is not to the strong alone. It is to the vigilant, the active, the brave. Besides, Sir, we have no choice. If we were base enough to desire it, it is now too late to retire from the contest. There is no retreat but in submission and slavery!"

"So my fellow Americans,we hold the course. Though we have been injured, though we have been grievously hurt, we do not bow, andwe do not cower. "

"Millions who have gone before have purchased our right to stand now. Millions who are yet to come are depending on us. We shall overcome this darkest day in American history, and when we do, with the help of G.o.d we will find the bright lining that rims every dark cloud. "

"Thank you all, keep the faith, and may G.o.d bless America in this, the hour of our greatest need!"
