Fox Chief Lachlan Murdoch Slams Americans Over Poll Saying Half Would Not Defend Country From Invasion
EXCERPT:
MURDOCH: “Ukrainians also know that their country is not perfect, and yet tonight, they continue to fight and to die for their sovereignty, their identity, and their most basic of freedoms. It is heart-wrenching to watch, and we must continue to help them defend themselves. Most of us agree with this basic point. And so I was shocked when a respected poll in the United States last week revealed that a bare majority of Americans would defend their country if invaded in a similar way. Could it really be that the America which fought not just a bloody war of independence from a foreign empire but also an even bloodier and more nationally defining Civil War of emancipation not long after; could it be that this exceptional country is now so politically divided that barely half of its citizens care deeply enough for its values that they would fight for them? The damage done to the American psyche through unrelenting attacks on its core values and via the destructive rewriting of history is very real.”
