Synopsis
Excerpt from The Menace of Peace
Promise the pacifist plotters propose would not be peace, but perpetual war. There is no peace without justice, no justice without truth, and no truth that is not the achievement of the love that takes sides and conquers - takes sides passionately and conquers definitely. Peace and justice are the same, and so are love and fraternity and truth, and also freedom and faith. They are but different names for the Power that holds the balance of the world. These are the times in which to read, regard less of one's beliefs, the Apocalypse of the apostle who saw the wrath of the Lamb con suming the kingdom and systems that were completing their cycle under the exhausting rule of Rome. There is no better tonic for a wearied and baffled goodwill; no stronger solace for the hearts that have hoped for social liberation and international fraternity, and that now beat low amid the shadows of divine dis appointment.

Seller rating 4 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This formidable book heeds the call to arms during the First World War, illuminating the profound clash between the autocratic and democratic principles. The author masterfully places the war within its historical context, with autocracy represented by the ambition of Imperial Germany, and democracy championed by the beleaguered Allies. The author questions the morality of neutrality in the face of such staggering injustice and the need for a complete defeat of Prussianism to ensure a future of freedom. Furthermore, the book grapples with the ethical responsibilities of nations to pursue a world without war and calls on all to take sides against tyranny. This eloquent examination of the war and its devastating effects on global society will galvanize readers to contemplate the enduring struggle between power and compassion while urging them to defend the principles that will shape the destiny of humanity.
