according the bertie R
circa 1920
we yankees would have a decisive role
by starving them out
a blockade
an anti hoovering
-------------
seems bertie had a very crude form of ruthless ness in mind
again look at hooverian humanism at that very time
was not soft power a better weapon ??
could we actually starve a continental "gone red " system back into white ???
yes it was a long abused privillege of the brit fleet
to starve recalcitrant peoples and states in to a more docile and trackable "mood"
including most recently germany and austria
ie not just backward colored people
so why not us yankees give it a whirl ??
of course in league with our junior partner from that industrial island eden
real admiral blimp
the state of all european states that had a people fit to be starved by naval blockade
and yet thr brits did a good deal of pre emptive starving too
one might notice ireland was starved simply by the workings of the market place
and of course bengal ...several times and and and ..
lesson ?
beware the christian saxons on either side of the great pond ...eh ??
if they have navy --air force -- enough that is
