20220708 - Liberty Minute

from Liberty Lighthouse · host Peter Serefine

I'm Peter Serefine with today's Liberty Minute. I end the Liberty Minute everyday with the Latin phrase, Si vis Pacem, Para Bellum.  It seems that every week I get an email asking what that means, so let me explain. Si vis Pacem, Para Bellum means if you want peace, prepare for war.  Sound advice used by Regan but rephrased as Peace through strength and by Teddy Roosevelt as walk softly but carry a big stick. The phrase originally comes from the book "Epitoma Rei Militaris," by the Roman general Publius Flavius Vegetius Renatus almost 2000 years ago. That name should sound vaguely familiar.  Publius was the pen name used by the authors of the Federalist Papers. So, no matter how you say it, we should all hope for the best while preparing for the worst. Find more news and commentary at Liberty-Lighthouse.com Until tomorrow Si vis Pacem, Para Bellum.
