THE ROBERT W. WHITAKER ARCHIVE

THREE COMPLEX AND INTERRELATED REQUIREMENTS FOR UN AND EUROPEAN APPROVAL | 2002-09-21

We have all heard the old adage that, for a successful restaurant, there are three important factors: 1) Location, 2) Location and 3) Location.

In that order.

World Opinion is shouting loudly about US policy relative to Iraq. Everybody is debating what meaning European opinion has.

So let me explain the three factors which decide the European view of morality: 1) who wins the war, 2) who wins the war, and 3) who wins the war.

In that order.

Europe now jails anti-semites. If Hitler had won the war, those same Europeans would not only be chasing down Jews for the Nazis, they would be preaching about how moral it is to chase down Jews for the Nazis.

Respectable conservatives collaborate with liberals to destroy anyone liberals say is a political heretic. Like Europeans, respectable conservatives call this collaboration "morality." Respectable conservative collaboration is how they get liberal media to call them "respectable."

Like all collaborators, Europeans and respectable conservatives always end up on the winner's side. No one was ever accused of a War Crime who was not on the losing side. No one questions the morality of this but me.

No one even bothers to STATE this rule but me.

So much for all the BS. If Bush wins the war he will be approved by all the opinions that he cares about.
