Dear patriot brothers and sisters, make no mistake, we are at war. This war is unlike any war our nation has faced in the past. We've struggled with this implacable enemy most our lives and only in these past few years have we come to the realization of the peril we are in. Not all of us will live to see the final results of our labors. I make the solemn pledge today to all our patriots that I will never surrender or give up the struggle while I have breath remaining but will carry the fight forward to my dying day in honor of those who have gone before me. I only ask the same of my fellow patriots. We can't know the future but I suspect there are dark times ahead. For those whose voices are silenced and forced from the field of battle I bid them farewell and may they rest high on that mountain.
