I submit, Mr. Pipes, that the problem goes deeper than American military prowess. It actually goes to the battle between good and evil in those who have more influence than John and Jane Q. Public. As long as shame is felt at the Iwo Jima Memorial Statue, or any other monument that celebrates the defeat of cultural malignancy, it is tough sledding to get back to what C.S. Lewis communicated in "The Abolition of Man" as the best route available to take.
