Fly the Flag if you want to. If you don't want to: No Big Deal, there are plenty of Patriotic Americans (myself included) who will gladly do it in your place.

The American Flag is self-sustaining, much like it was in WW2, there will alway be someone around to protect this noble and immortal symbol, past present and future.

The Ira Haze picture of Mount Surabachi Iwo Jima sums up this truth up prefectly, and last week at the world trade center ground zero, we see this same picture revisited to another generation: a beautiful picture of brave American Firefighters, defiant against the forces of evil,intolerence, and totalitarianism. Once again raising the American Flag for a new generation.

The leftist who who hate this Country, I doubt will ever fully appreciate the significance of the U.S. flag. I think one must first have liberties taken away, and human lives threatened (much like was done, by the Nazis) Before such reverence is appreciated.

Bob Wills summed up up the Beauty and Fate of the American Flag in his inspirational song, "Stars And Stripes on Iwo Jima"

High on the Hill of Surabachi Waves Old Glory AND SHE ALWAYS WILL"

The American Flag will always be around because of what it represents. And there will always be individuals around to defend it.

This lyric still does (and will always) send chills up my spine.

Truth has a tendency to do that
