I see the Patterson School has engaged in provocative and bellicose rhetoric to try and cow the Fletcher School and other policy schools into more docile behavior -- under the guise of claiming that they are only acquiring "defensive" weapons.  I see that Georgetown has treated this threat as nothing more than empty bluster.  They are likely correct.  However, such rhetoric cannot be tolerated without consequence.  I therefore propose ending this mine-shaft gap mobilizing the defensive alliance among APSIA schools (thank God that Patterson is not a member) and that we pool our resources to revive supremacy in our inflatable air power.
