Remember when the Iranians held the hostages when Carter was President. As soon as Reagan got elected they released them.

Even though Patton was the most aggressive General he had the lowest casualty rate.

Nothing is gained by showing weakness.

And everything is lost through weakness...

I'll never forget a political cartoon from the hostage era that should the pristine Soviet embassy next to the overrun US embassy. A burly comrade was at their gates saying "We simply do not allow such things."
