Nobility and Ingrates

Christopher Orlet reviews the book The Case for Goliath by Michael Mandelbaum.

Mandelbaum makes the case that our ``friends`` in Europe and elsewhere are really a bunch of freeloaders who use and malign the United States, while secretly being thankful America is here. He argues that America, like Rome, is a de-facto world government, and that if we ever tired of the ingratitude and disengaged ourselves, the world would be in dire trouble.

It`s an interesting piece.

The Euroweenies are just like spoiled kids whining that their parents are mean and never let them do anything and they wish they'd just go away - -until the parents do disappear and then they'd whine that they had nothing to eat.
