Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Scrap of Paper: The Inner History of German Diplomacy and Her Scheme of Worldwide Conquest "Just for a word - neutrality, a word which in war-time had so often been disregarded - just for a scrap of paper Great Britain was going to make war." Such was the significant comment of the German Chancellor on Great Britain´s determination to uphold the neutrality of Belgium. A scrap of paper! This phrase, applied to a binding treaty, is destined to stick like a Nessus´ shirt to the memory of its author, his imperial inspirer, and their country until such time as the militarism which originated it has been consumed without residue. It is a Satanic sneer hurled with fell purpose into a world of civilized human beings. No such powerful dissolvent of organized society has been devised since men first began to aggregate. The primal source of the inner cohesive force which holds the elements of society together is faith in the plighted word. Destroy that and you have withdrawn the cement from the structure, which will forthwith crumble away. But this prospect does not dismay the Prussian.
