“massive capability to strike back against any aggression that is needed.”

Ike on the Domino theory

• “…you have broader considerations that might follow what you would call the "falling domino" principle. You have a row of dominoes set up, you knock over the first one, and what will happen to the last one is the certainty that it will go over very quickly. So you could have a beginning of a disintegration that would have the most profound influences.”

Stand up, Hungarians, your country calls.    The time for now or never falls.     Are we to live as slaves or free?     Choose one. This is our destiny!     By the God of all the Magyars, we swear.     We swear never again the chains to bear.
