President of the Pilgrim Society, a member of the Carnegie, a member of the CFR (Council on Foreign Relations)
"France does not know, but we are at war against the United States. A permanent war economy, a war without blood. "
" Yes, they are very Americans hard, they are voracious, they want undivided power over the world. An unknown war, permanent war, without apparently dead, and yet a bloody war. "
