All of my own proclivities and propensities for this or that aside. I suggest that those who believe these things are true and moral go build themselves a little island colony and see if it goes any better for them now than it did over the last few thousand years. Something tells me that faced with this opportunity many would opt out. I don't think we've seen any mass exodus to Iran of late (just to provide one example). Just about everywhere we look the faithful are breaking their backs to get into secular countries, not out of them. Unsurprisingly as soon as they arrive they start to miss home, and suggest to us that we should emulate the place they so recently abandoned.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
