As these episodes suggested, and September 11, 2001, confirmed, only the United States has the resources and the determination to defend the interdependent world that it did so much to foster; and it is America that will always be the prime target of those who wish to see that world die.

Spanish commentators are especially sensitive to the need for European unity, and Aznar is deeply resented for what is seen by many in Spain as his feckless action in signing the WSJ statement. There will be many more such tasks, indeed an infinity of them in coming years. Everything I read about Wall Street firms reminds me of the 4 guys gambling in their private club, the "Beargarden" -- crazy web of credits and worthless IOUs, all the players betting money they don't have, each one making his bets based on what the others owe him, and no prospect of them ever being sufficiently sober and "in funds" to settle up. Near the end of the book (vol. We have heaven-kissed moral fulcrum Roger Carbury, with his pathological jonesing to shag his boring cousin.

Measured by everything from graffiti to violent assaults, anti-Semitism has indeed been on the increase in some European countries in recent years; but then so it has in America. A second Europhobic myth now widely disseminated in the United States is more pernicious. After all, French anti-Americanism is an old and silly story, too; but it has never seriously impeded transatlantic relations and grand strategy.17 Are we not just seeing the compliment returned, albeit at an unusually high volume? Refresh and try again. I read this in Delphi Collected works of Trollope. The core of that system, and its spiritual heart, was the North Atlantic alliance: not just the 1949 defense treaty but a penumbra of understandings and agreements beginning with the Atlantic Charter of 1941 and spreading through the United Nations and its agencies; the Bretton Woods accords and the institutions they spawned; conventions on refugees, human rights, genocide, arms control, war crimes, and much more besides. So who will pay? The US has nothing to lose by offending or alienating these disposable allies of conven- ience, and much to gain by tearing up the entangling web of controls that the French and their ilk would weave around our freedom of movement. There are several storylines which do connect to the characters to each other and keeps things very active to the very end. But even in the absence of such mitigating circumstances the precedents are not comforting—remember the Tulsa pogrom of May 1921, when at least 350 blacks were killed by whites.

Because it confidently equates American interest with that of every right-thinking person on the planet, it is doomed to arouse the very antagonism and enmity that provoke American intervention in the first place (only a hardened European cynic would suggest that this calculation has been silently incorporated into the equation). Intellectual activity is a little bit like seduction. The omission is glaring and revealing.
