You say "The sky isn't falling, the sky has fallen."

I say "War isn't coming, war is here, NOW."

We're being attacked by domestic terrorists, we are at war, & we've only begun to fight.

Pearl Harbor has been attacked & we've taken damage but that doesn't mean the war is over, it means the war has just begun.
