War And Anti-War
"Those eight months in Paris, back in 1919, that's when our world began to go off the rails."--about 25 minutes into Thursday's edition of Ed Morrissey's Heading Right show on Blog Talk Radio, David Andelman of Forbes makes the same point regarding World War I that I discussed a couple of weeks ago.
Of course, my post from mid-September is only about 175 words long; Andelman has a whole book on the topic titled A Shattered Peace: Versailles 1919 and the Price We Pay Today, which sounds like a must-read.
