Description
I begin with the famous World War I poem, "In Flanders' Fields," and address the call to defend our freedom and fight the enemy. I then address pacifism and it fatal contradictions, the need to defend ourselves, the fact that there are so many societies in the world, that conflict is natural between them, that free societies are far less likely to be in conflict, that humans do cooperate with one another, and that freedom is by far the best way to help them cooperate and avoid armed conflict. I then close with the poem "America's Answer," which was the poet's answer to "In Flanders' Fields."
