The United States Should Not Jump Around

The Russian Leaders Are Keen Judges Of Human Psychology, And As Such They Are Highly Conscious That Loss Of Temper And Of Self-control Is Never A Source Of Strength In Political Affairs.

The United States Cannot Reshape Other Countries In Its Own Image And That, With A Few Exceptions, Its Efforts To Police The World Are Neither In Its Interests Nor Within The Scope Of Its Resources. This Whole Tendency To See Ourselves As The Center Of Political Enlightenment And As Teachers To A Great Part Of The Rest Of The World Strikes Me As Unthought-through, Vainglorious And Undesirable.

The United States Should Not Jump Around Like An Elephant Frightened By A Mouse.

We Should Cease To Talk About Vague And Unreal Objectives Such As Human Rights, The Raising Of The Living Standards, And Democratization. The Day Is Not Far Off When We Are Going To Have To Deal In Straight Power Concepts. The Less We Are Then Hampered By Idealistic Slogans, The Better.

Actually, The Inability Of Any Society To Resist Immigration, The Inability To Find Other Solutions To The Problem Of Employment At The Lower, More Physical, And Menial Levels Of The Economic Process, Is A Serious Weakness, And Possibly Even A Fatal One, In Any National Society. The Fully Healthy Society Would Find Ways To Meet Those Needs Out Of Its Own Resources.
