Mike:  What most Americans think about what happened in World War I was that the American Army, we instituted a draft.  President Wilson was correct and we came to the rescue of the English and the French and worked all these wonderful things with the sacrifice of so many lives, which escalated the war on the Maginot Line, and also resulted in the escalation of the loss of life of the French and the Brits.  What ultimately happened was the subjugation of the Germanic people.  This was the unintended consequences.  I know Patrick J. Buchanan has written a book about this.  I haven’t read the whole book.  I’ve read parts of it.  This is what is not thought about when countries seek to intervene.  As you just said about the regime change that was instigated by MI6, European Union and the CIA in Ukraine, it doesn’t seem as though history seems to be any guide anymore.  Doctor, why not?[private |FP-Monthly|FP-Yearly|FP-Yearly-WLK|FP-Yearly-So76|Founding Brother|Founding Father|FP-Lifetime]

Trifkovic:  Because the decision makers in the Western capitals do not know history and do not care about it.  They believe that they operate in a totally new, postmodern environment in which the examples of the past are not relevant for the actions of the present.  It is an extremely dangerous situation.  I would prefer for the neocons and for Hillary Clinton and Samantha Power and Susan Rice and other liberal interventionists to be cynical, to know the score, and yet to act on the razor edge of marginal advantage hoping to score some geopolitical points for themselves.  No, unfortunately they genuinely believe that it is indeed a wholly new game that they’re playing, that the examples of the past don’t matter because their technology and their information networks make it possible to impose new rules of the game.

But it’s not possible.  We are looking at the old geopolitical equation of a hundred years ago.  The tendency of maritime powers – back then it was the British Empire; today it is the American Empire – to treat every point in the world as the so-called vital national interest, it leads to imperial overreach.  The examples of imperial overreach through history should be salutary indeed.  Spain dropped from number one in the late 16th century to number six after the Thirty Years’ War in 1648 exactly because it tried to fight on too many fronts.  The United States is ill-advised to simultaneously promote the crisis in Ukraine and to support the enemies of China along the island rim in the Pacific, Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, the Philippines, Vietnam.  What it ultimately leads to is the exhaustion.  The United States has neither the moral or material resources to be the global hegemon.[/private]

A rational American interest of policy would look at: How does it affect us?  How does it affect the lives of Americans in Oklahoma and in Texas?  Whose flag will fly over Kiev’s Independence Square does not matter one iota.  Imposing this puritan ideology of exceptionalism is both, in Christian terms, heretical because it implies that God has chosen some nations over others and made them immune to normal natural morality and just war theory.  On the other hand, it leads to material exhaustion, which ultimately does not yield any perceptible benefits.

As an American, albeit naturalized American, I love my country and I am really upset about the fact that we don’t have people of the caliber of even one might say Dwight Eisenhower, who did not want to overextend and overreach even at the height of the Cold War.  Or, for instance, Atchison in the late 1940s, early ‘50s, or even John Foster Dulles in the 1950s, who knew the limits of American power.  We are who we are.  We are what we are.  We know that beyond a certain point, we risk conflagration that cannot possibly be profitable enough to justify the risks, the losses, and the costs.
