Those, Who Would Give Up Essential Liberty To Purchase A Little Temporary Safety, Deserve Neither Liberty Nor?

I have heard that Roosevelt quotation. Answer: Re: give up our freedom. What is his true meaning? I do not mean that it is gaining references. Not looking for a discussion to find arguments.
  Thank you
  Our Documents: Franklin Roosevelt to Congress the annual report – the "four freedoms"
January 6, 1941
  Mr President, Mr President, in the first 77 members of Congress:
  I would like to talk about your time with 77 members of Congress, the Union, without parallel in history. I do not use, because at the time of "unprecedented" there is a serious security threat in the U.S., there has never been like this.
  Since the Chinese government set up a permanent constitution in 1789, the crisis in our history, most of the time period in our internal affairs. Fortunately, they only threatened – in four years of war between the countries – our national unity. Today, at 40, thank God, 130 million Americans, a country, but forget the compass in our national unity.
  In fact, before 1914, the U.S. is often disturbed by what is happening on other continents. We also had two European countries in the Caribbean and in the future a number of war without a declaration of war by the war, the Mediterranean and the right to retain the United States in the Pacific and the principles of peaceful commerce. But in any case a serious threat to our national security, and we continue to be independent.
  I tried to convey the message is a historical fact that the United States as a nation have always maintain a clear and unambiguous that any attempt to lock the rear wall of the old China, and we walked in procession of civilization resistance. Today, the thought, our children and their children, we oppose mandatory isolation for themselves or other parts of America.
  This is our commitment to extend all these years to prove that, for example, 25 years after the war, the French Revolution.
  Even Napoleon's struggles threaten U.S. interests, since in the Caribbean and the French foothold in Louisiana, and we in the war in 1812 to prove our right to peaceful trade, it is clear that both the French people is not English, or any other country , focuses on the whole world domination.
  Examples from 1815 to 1914, made fashionable – in 2099 – is a European war or the future of Asia, or to any other country in the future, the real threat to the United States.
  Apart Maximilian interlude in Mexico, no foreign forces in their attempts to establish itself in this hemisphere, as well as the strength of the British fleet in the Atlantic has been a friendly strength. This is still a friendly strength.
  Although the First World War broke out in 1914, seems to contain only a risk, and our little threat to United's future. But over time, began the American people to imagine what the democratic state collapse could lead to our own democracy.
  We do not have too much emphasis on the shortcomings of the Treaty of Versailles. We do not need democracy in chatterbox failed to address the world's reconstruction. We should remember that in 1919, peace is far below the "reassuring" in Munich before this injustice, this is the ongoing oppression of the new regime, and strives on all continents today, spreading. The American people firmly set off against the tyranny of their faces.
  Every realist knows that the democratic way of life in what has been "directly in all parts of the world's criticism – criticism of weapons, or any moment is the secret spread of poisonous propaganda by those who sought to destroy our unity and the promotion of domestic discord, is still at peace.
  In these 16 attacks have been carried out in an independent democratic country, large and small numbers are staggering to ignore long months the whole pattern. The perpetrators are still in March, threatening other countries, regardless of size.
  Therefore, as your president, fulfilling the responsibility entrusted to me by the Constitution "gives Congress of countries of the Union message," I think unfortunately have to report on the future and our national security and our democracy are most involved in events far beyond our borders.
  Armed defense of democratic existence is courageously carried out in four continents. If the defense does not come across people and across Europe, Asia, Africa and Oceania resources are dominated by conquerors. Let us remember that the total number of such populations and resources in those four continents greatly exceed the sum of the population throughout the Western Hemisphere resources many times over.
  In such times it was too early – not true – for someone to brag about U.S. preparations, with one hand, and tied one hand, can delay the whole world.
  United States is not realistic to expect of a dictator can be peaceful international generosity, or real independence, or world disarmament, or freedom of speech, religion and return, or even good business.
  Such a peace will not bring us security or for our neighbors. "Those who give up essential liberty to purchase temporary safety deserve neither liberty or security."
  As a nation, we can take the fact that we will never be true pride, but we can not be soft animals.
  We must always guard against those who with sounding brass and long cymbal preach the "appeasement".
  In particular, beware of self-serving a small group of people who would cut the wings of American eagle feathers, in their own nest.
  I have recently observed that a number of fast modern warfare among us could make personal attacks, we must eventually expect if the dictator of the country win the war.
  There are a lot of the loose immediately and directly from the sea invasion of the immune conversation. Sure, as long as the British Navy retains its power, no such dangers. Even without the British fleet, it is not an enemy might be stupid enough to attack the U.S., troop, we have thousands of miles from the sea until it has been a strategic base for its function.
  On the other hand, we learned a lot from the experiences and lessons of the past few years in Europe, especially Norway, the main ports were betrayed and the creation of a series of accidents over the years to capture the experience.
  In the first phase of the invasion of this hemisphere will not be regular troops landing. The necessary strategic focus will be the occupation of the agents and their dupes, many of them have been here, in Latin America.
  As long as the aggressor to maintain the offensive they, not we – will choose the time and place, and their methods of attack.
  That is why all American Republic is in grave danger for the future.
  That is why this year's message to Congress is unique in our history.
  That is why the executive branch to each member of Congress faces great responsibility and great accountability.
  In the present need is to make our actions and our policy should be primarily, almost exclusively – to meeting this foreign threat. All of our domestic issues are now a part of it is in a hurry.
  As we said in the internal affairs of the country's policy is based on a decent respect for the rights and all our doors with dignity for our people, so that our country's foreign policy based on rights and dignity of a decent respect for all countries, regardless of size. And moral justice must be to win the final victory.
  Our national policy is:
  First it was impressed with the expression of public will, regardless of party, we are committed to an inclusive national defense.
  Secondly, was impressed by the expression of public will and without regard to party, we are committed to all those resolute people everywhere who are resisting aggression, is to enable us to maintain the full support of the war away from the northern hemisphere . Through this support we would like to express our commitment to the cause of democracy will prevail; us to strengthen national defense and our own national security.
  Thirdly, was impressed by the expression of public will and without
regard to party, we are committed to ideas and to consider the ethical principles of our own security will never permit us to find themselves determined by the aggressors sponsored by peace and concessions. We know that lasting peace can not come at the expense of other people's freedom.
  In a recent national election is not between the two largest parties in the case of important changes in national policies. The problem is not fighting in this line before the American electorate. Today it is abundantly clear that U.S. citizens around the world and support for the necessary rapid and thorough survey of the obvious risk of action.
  It is therefore important in our arms production and driving is increasing rapidly.
  Industry leaders and work to answer our calling. Rate targets have been identified. In some cases, these objectives are achieved early, in some cases, we are on the plane, in other cases may have a slight delay, but not so difficult, in some cases – I am sorry to say very important cases – we are all worried over the realization of our plans has been slow.
  Army and Navy, has made great strides over the past year. Practical experience is to accelerate and improve our production methods, with the passage of time. The best is not enough today, tomorrow.
  I am not satisfied with the progress achieved so far. Person in charge of the plan is the best of education, capacity, and in patriotism. They are not satisfied with the progress made so far. We will not be satisfied until the job.
  Regardless of their initial target too high or too low, our objective is to better and faster results. To give you two examples:
  We can not proceed as planned roll-out aircraft, we are working around the clock to solve many problems to catch up.
  We walk in the building of warships schedule, but we are working to get more long-term future of this program.
  Switching from the standard based on the production of the country's peace and war, based on the production of war is no small task. The biggest problem for new tools, new plant facilities, new production lines and new ships must be preceded by the use of building materials planning, start to start a flood of them quickly.
  Congress, of course, must be well retain their relevance in the proceedings shall be kept informed. However, there is some information, because the General Assembly itself will be very easy to identify, as in our own security and support for our country, must be kept confidential.
  This new situation has constantly had new demands on our safety. I will ask the significant increase in new funds and permission to continue, we have started this session.
  I have also asked the House authority and sufficient resources to provide more ammunition and other military equipment will be transferred to these countries, which with the aggressor countries, the war itself.
  Our most useful and direct role as an arms depot, as well as their own. They do not need power, but their defense needs against the U.S. dollar, billions of dollars on weapons.
  When the time is near, they will not be able to pay all cash for them. We can not, we will not tell them that they must give up just because the current inability to pay for weapons, we know that they must have.
  I am not suggesting that we leave their dollars in loans to pay for these weapons – a loan repaid in U.S. dollars.
  I suggest that we can do these countries continue to receive U.S. war materiel and equipment of their orders into our own routines. Nearly all materials will be, if the time came, be useful for our own defense.
  Expert Consultants military and military authorities, considering what is the best security of our own, we are free to decide how much to be here, how much to send abroad to a friend who is their determination and heroic resistance is to give us the time in which to make their own defense preparations.
  In order for us to send abroad, we should immediately return within a reasonable time after the fighting ended, a similar material, or of our choice in many species, they can produce what we need other raw materials.
  Allow us to democracy, said: "We Americans are very keen to defend their freedom. We will give our energy, our resources and organization of power, to give you the power to restore and maintain a free world. We will send you, but more and more of the figures, ships, planes, tanks and artillery. It is our goal and our commitment. "
  In this situation, we are not intimidated by the threat of a dictator, they will think this is a violation of international law, or as an act of war our aid, democratic, dare to resist aggression, to the implementation. Such assistance was not an act of war, even if a dictator should unilaterally announced that they can.
  When the dictators, we need, dictators, ready to start a war, they will not wait we have conducted acts of war. They did not wait, Norway, Belgium, the Netherlands has committed acts of war.
  Their only concern is international law, the lack of mutual respect, and thus become an instrument of oppression into the new one-way.
  The welfare of future generations of Americans are likely to depend on how effectively and in real time, how do we make our support can be felt. No one can speak of the urgent situation, we are forced to carry out the precise nature of the situation. Hands of the state can not be delivered together with people's lives in danger.
  We must all be prepared to make sacrifices, urgency, almost as beautiful as the war itself – demands seriously. Whether lawyers must give way to national needs in terms of speed and defense to prepare for more effective methods.
  A free country has a right to expect full cooperation with all groups. A free country has a right to expect that managers of labor, agriculture, and to stimulate non-, and other groups, but in his own group's work, took the lead.
  In dealing with a small number of lazy, or troublemakers in our midst of the patriotic example of this is, first, a pity that they are the best way, and if that fails, to use the government to save the sovereignty of the government.
  Just as the men do not live by bread alone, they do not have a separate weapon of war. We are the people that defense and those behind them who build our defense systems must have the perseverance and courage, but from their unwavering belief in life is to preserve a way. A strong action, we demand that can not be based on all the things worth fighting ignored.
  The state has adopted a very satisfactory, have been implemented to make things even more strength of his people's democratic life in the United States aware of the protection of individual stocks. These things glass fiber of our people, have renewed their faith and strengthened the institutional commitment, we are ready to protect.
  Of course it does not stop at some point in our social and economic problems, which is an important social revolution, the highest in the world today, the ideological roots of factors.
  For there is no health and strong foundation for democracy in the dark. Through their political and economic systems, basic expectations of our people something very simple. They are:
  Young people equal opportunities and other people.
  Jobs for those who can work.
  For those security needs.
  Until the end of a privileged few.
  All the protection of civil liberties.
  The results of scientific progress in the enjoyment of a wide and constantly improve the standard of living.
  These are simple, and should not ignore the loss of the storm and the modern world, the immense complexity of the basic things. Our economic and political system of intrinsic and endurance depends on the extent to which they fulfill these expectations.
  With our economy in many disciplines in order to immediately improve the call is connected.
  As an example:
  We should do it in the pension and unemployment insurance coverage to more citizens.
  We should widen the opportunities for adequate medical care.
  We should plan a better system
, it is worth what people need gainful employment or is likely to get it.
  I have asked the personal sacrifice. I guarantee that almost all Americans are prepared to respond to this request.
  A cost of around means more money to pay the tax. In my budget message, I would recommend this great defense program, the majority of tax paying more than what we are today a visit. No one should try, or have plans to become rich first, and the ability to pay tax in accordance with the principle should be ahead of us, always guide our legislation.
  If Congress believes that these principles, the voters, the patriotism purse, give you applause.
  In the future, we strive to provide security, we look forward to four years after the founding of the world's basic human freedoms.
  The first is freedom of opinion and expression – all over the world.
  Second, every person's freedom to worship God in their own way – around the world.
  The third is freedom from want – which, translated into the world, the understanding of economic instruments will ensure that every country in peacetime health living in the world.
  The fourth is freedom from fear – which, as the world's translation, means that from a wide range of disarmament issues, in a profound way, no country will be able to commit to an act of physical violence, neighbor – anywhere in the world.
  It is not far from the Millennium ideals. It is a world achieved in our own time and give a clear reason. Such a world is called tyranny of the dictators are trying to create a new order, the opposite of a collapse of a bomb.
  Of this new regime, as opposed to the general concept of – moral order. A good society is able to meet world domination and foreign revolutions plans without fear.
  Since the beginning of our American history we have changed – in a perpetual peaceful revolution – the revolution is going on constantly, slowly adapt to changing conditions – there are no concentration camps or quick lime ditch. The world order we seek is the cooperation of free countries, and strive in a friendly, civilized society.
  This country placed in the hands, head and free men and women, the fate of millions of hearts, and the freedom of belief in God's guidance. Freedom means that the supremacy of human rights everywhere. We support those who fight for these rights or to let them. Our strength is our unity of purpose. The concept of higher, there will be no end save victory.
