Your manuscript is good, as well as original,
but, the part that is good is not original,
and the part that is original is not good.

Admittedly there is a risk in any course we follow other than this, but every lesson in history tells us that the greater risk lies in appeasement, and this is the specter our well-meaning liberal friends refuse to face. . . that their policy of accommodation is appeasement, and it gives no choice between peace and war, only between fight or surrender. If we continue to accommodate, continue to back and retreat, eventually we have to face the final demand - the ultimatum. And what then?

--Ronald Reagan

Being slavish to one ideology is the sign of a narrow mind. Pick and choose your beliefs carefully. There are good points in most of them.
