Not All Alliances Prove TrustworthyReader comment on item: "Godless Saracens Threatening Destruction": Submitted by M Tovey (United States), Mar 12, 2021 at 19:17 Attempting to provide strength through allying with supposed participants of common interests is now controversial since the collapse of national interests in the 20th century. The Marxist manifestos coming out of the late nineteenth century in contradiction to the previous developments of empire were intent in creating a world that would sacrifice national security for the unity of a united world community that would defeat personal freedoms in lieu of communal defense with equality for all. Why(?): because the one must be sacrificed for the many. Does that sound familiar to anyone?
