Book Description
Excerpt from Germany, France Russia, and Islam The sense of justice to Germany demands the lessening of France. Every intelligent man sees that that military nation cannot be forgiven, even for the economic sacrifices of the war, on the payment of the heaviest indemnity in money. Why was it that, before the declaration of the war, and before a single German newspaper had demanded the restitution of the plunder, the anxious cry rang through Alsace and Lorraine, The dice are to be thrown to settle the destiny of our provinces? Because the awakened conscience of the people felt what penalty would have to be paid in the interests of justice by the disturber of the peace of nations. The term disturber of the peace is one that might properly be recalled in 1914. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
