“Why does soldiers leave the protection of his trench hole in the ground and go forward in the face of shot and shell? It is because of the leader who is in front of him and his comrades who are around him. Comradeship makes a man feel warm and courageous when all his instincts tend to make him cold and afraid.” MenFeelsDoeFacesLeaderMilitaryFrontsColdShotsInstinctSoldierWarmProtectionHolesCourageousShellsComradeTrenchesComradeship Author:Bernard Law Montgomery
“It may be laid down as a primary position, and the basis of our system, that every Citizen who enjoys the protection of a free Government, owes not only a proportion of his property, but even his personal services to the defence of it, and consequently that the Citizens of America (with a few legal and official exceptions) from 18 to 50 Years of Age should be borne on the Militia Rolls, provided with uniform Arms, and so far accustomed to the use of them, that the Total strength of the Country might be called forth at a Short Notice on any very interesting Emergency.” ShouldYearsMayCountryUseGovernmentMightAgeAmericaEnjoyInterestingMilitaryPositionArmsCitizensBasesPropertyProtectionPrimariesOfficialsProportionExceptionUniformsAccustomedEmergenciesVery InterestingDefenceMilitiaFree GovernmentFounding Fathers GunShort Notice Author:George Washington

“The events in Prague, together with the Berlin blockade, convinced the European recipients of American economic assistance that they needed military protection as well: that led them to request the creation of a North Atlantic Treaty Organization, which committed the United States for the first time ever to the peacetime defense of Western Europe.” FirstsWellsStatesTogetherUnitedUnited StatesEconomicMilitaryEventsCreationNeededFirst TimeEuropeOrganizationWesternCommittedProtectionDefenseConvincedAssistanceRequestBerlinTreatiesWestern EuropePragueBlockades Author:John Lewis
“And there was a deeper, less visible effect of the Truman loyalty program. Seeing its consequences for certain individuals and fearing its intrusion on their own lives, many in the government sought protection by strongly asserting their anti-Communism. In the public action that ensued, policy was based not on reality but, instinctively or deliberately, on personal caution...Those who urged a militant and sometimes military anti-Communism were considered sound, trustworthy and personally safe; those who questioned such a course were politically unsafe, possible even slightly disloyal.” SometimesRealityGovernmentActionCertainCoursesIndividualSoundSeeingEffectsMilitaryPolicySafeConsequenceProgramDeeperProtectionLoyaltyCommunismVisibleCautionTrustworthyMilitantIntrusionUnsafeTrumanDisloyalAnti Communism Author:John Kenneth Galbraith

“First of all, let me give my comments on the blasphemy law. This law was introduced by the military dictator General Ziaul Haq. No one demanded the blasphemy law in Pakistan. But he wanted to give protection to his undemocratic rule, dictatorship, by using religion. So Pakistan came into being in 1947, and from 1947 until 1986 no case against any minorities was registered under the protection of the blasphemy law. Nobody from minorities was killed and no act of violence happened [against them].” GivingFirstsWantedLawCasesViolenceHappenedMilitaryLet MeProtectionMinoritiesCommentDictatorshipDictatorPakistanBlasphemyActs Of Violence Author:Shahbaz Bhatti
