"If we are to have another contest in the future of our national existence, the dividing line will be between patriotism and intelligence on the one side, and superstition, ambition, and ignorance on the other." These words were born from a time of great trial in America—a time when our nation, scarred by civil war, sought to rebuild its foundations. The Civil War had exposed the dangers of division, blind ambition, and unbridled ignorance. It was a stark reminder that patriotism must always be guided by intelligence and wisdom if it is to serve the greater good. #UlyssesSGrant #InformationWar #InformationWarfare #informationwarfaremagazine
