Show FOUR FREEDOMS SHOULD NOT BE ENFORCED The idea that the United States is at war to present the "four freedoms" free-doms" to all peoples and to enforce en-force them in all regions is certain cer-tain to cause disappointment. The "four freedoms" cannot be presented or enforced. They must be developed by the people themselves, them-selves, wherever the people reside. The truth is that we are at war because we were attacked by the Japanese first and by Italy and Germany immediately thereafter. We will win our wars when we render our enemies incapable of causing us injury. This nation will be safe, after the war, regardless of whether the "four freedoms" are in vogue in India, China, Africa or way stations sta-tions only if it maintains sufficient armed strenth to prevent another attack. We should appreciate the "four freedoms" in our lives and do nothing to prevent their development develop-ment in other lands. This was not the attitude of our enemies; they attempted to suppress liberty everywhere, ev-erywhere, including the United States. |
