Then & Now

"Our coming is beneficial... because we bring tidings of the true God and Christian religion, sent by the pope... and the King of Spain, so that you may become Christians peacefully, of your own free will, but should you refuse the peace we offer, then the death and destruction that will follow will be entirely of your own account."

-- Gonzalo de Alvarado, 1525


"You're either with us or against us."

-- Jorge W. Bush, 2001
