Americans need to toughen up--personally, culturally, and as
a national fighting force--if we are to survive the
unprecedented threat from Islamist assault. So says New York
Times bestselling author Tony Blankley in his new book,
American Grit. In it, Blankley prescribes a three-pronged
approach, and lays out a compelling plan for the U.S. to
implement: * A universal military draft of both men and women--not only
to boost the size of our fighting force, but to instill a
unity of toughness and cultural purpose among both the
personally self-indulgent and un-assimilated immigrants.
* A policy to get us on the road to energy independence to
expand our diplomatic and economic options in the Middle
East and around the world.
* A serious and sophisticated program for communicating
Western moral values and the American spirit of
self-determination to people living under oppressive regimes
as well as to voters here at home. These three components were the key to America's success in
previous wars, and must be "rediscovered" today. The "PC"
crowd will complain, but Blankley argues that this
conservative manifesto to re-establish American grit is
essential--our nation's very survival depends on it.
