They had their lying diplomats, their corruption funds; they levied money on cities and states; they took booty; and they were God's elect.

It's a wonderful parallel--not strangely, because the game is the same and the moral methods are the same.

Only the tools are somewhat different--the submarine, for example.

Hence the _Lusitania_ disaster (not disavowed, you will observe), the _Arabic_ disaster, the propaganda, underground and above, in the United States.

And there'll be more.
