I'd say this man has more credibility and inside knowledge of this serious issue, than most, especially today:

Dwight David "Ike" Eisenhower was an American military officer and statesman who served as the 34th president of the United States from 1953 to 1961. During World War II, he served as Supreme Commander of the Allied Expeditionary Force in Europe, and achieved the rare five-star rank of General of the Army. He was responsible for planning and supervising the invasion of North Africa in Operation Torch in 1942–1943 and the successful invasion of Normandy in 1944–1945 from the Western Front. Eisenhower, born David Dwight Eisenhower, was born in Denison, Texas and raised in Abilene, Kansas, within a large family of mostly German ancestry.
