A Quote by Jackie Jackson

All these are dangerous but not the primary threat.

The central problem is always in the midst of the people of God, not in the circumstances surrounding them.

And if you look on the map, you can see that they're also surrounded by a bunch of American bases that certainly could hit them at any moment.

Unless we attack them first and then they use terrorism inside America.
No one is concerned with Central America anymore. If a million people are facing starvation in northern Nicaragua and Honduras, it's none of our business. Few people even recognize that this situation is in part an outgrowth of US policies going back to the 1980's. Nobody is concerned because Nicaragua is technically stable.
