| Message | Sometimes, words can have a more direct effect on world events than force. But what happens if our neighboring countries legislature and government fall to some kind of Stalinist Nazi Regime that decides to land grab everything in sight. We must be able to defend ourselves against such a threat before it even occurs. An intelligence agency can help us accomplish that. |
