Parapolitical thought for the day
#4
Parapolitical thought for today:

Quote:"In the light of what has happened, I would take a chance on this country using its strength tyrannously…We need, if you will, a Pax Americana,"

John J. McCloy, Warren Commission member, in a letter to fellow Philadelphian George Wharton Pepper, within Kai Bird's The Chairman: John J. McCloy: The Making of the American Establishment (NY: Simon & Schuster, 1992), p.661.

NB: McCloy's quote is not to be confused with an extract from John F. Kennedy's speech, delivered at the American University in Washington, June 10, 1963, in the course of which he said:

Quote:"What kind of peace do I mean and what kind of peace do we seek? NOT a Pax Americana enforced on the world by weapons of war…"

I am delighted to have prevented any kind of misunderstanding in the matter.
"There are three sorts of conspiracy: by the people who complain, by the people who write, by the people who take action. There is nothing to fear from the first group, the two others are more dangerous; but the police have to be part of all three,"

Joseph Fouche
