Sebastian Marshall Quotes

Almost All Modern Governments Are Highly Conscious Of What Journalism Calls 'world Opinion.' For Sound Reasons, Mostly Of An Economic Nature, They Cannot Afford To Be Condemned In The United Nations, They Do Not Like To Be Visited By Human Rights Commissions Or Freedom Of The Press Committees; Their Need Of Foreign Investment, Foreign Loans, Foreign Markets, Satisfactory Trade Relationships, And So On, Requires That They Be Members In More Or Less Good Standing Of A Larger Community Of Interests. Often, Too, They Are Members Of Military Alliances. Consequently, They Must Maintain Some Appearance Of Stability, In Order To Assure The Other Members Of The Community Or Of The Alliance That Contracts Will Continue To Be Honored, That Treaties Will Be Upheld, That Loans Will Be Repaid With Interest, That Investments Will Continue To Produce Profits And Be Safe. "Protracted Internal War Threatens All Of This ... No Ally Wishes To Treat With A Government That Is On The Point Of Eviction.
