“I do not know if the doctrine that the nation-state arose in the 19th century was still being taught:;... but it is erroneous. The nation-state reaches back far into the origins of Europe itself and perhaps beyond. If Europe was not always a Europe of nations, it was always a Europe in which nations existed, and were taken for granted, as a basic form of the State.” IfsKnowsStillsStatesFormNationsTakenCenturyTaughtEuropeDoctrineGranted19th CenturyTaken For Granted Author:Enoch Powell
“Yet we slink about like whipped curs:;... our self-abasement principally takes the form of subservience to the United States:;... we are under no necessity to participate in the American nightmare of a Soviet monster barely held at bay in all quarters of the globe by an inconceivable nuclear armament and by political intervention everywhere from Poland to Cambodia. It is the Americans who need us in order to act out their crazy scenario... We simply do not need to go chasing up and down after the vagaries of the next ignoramus to become President of the United States.” NeedsSelfStatesFormPoliticalOrderNextPresidentUnitedUnited StatesCrazyNuclearMonstersNightmareQuartersSovietGlobesChasingInterventionUp And DownScenariosPolandArmamentCambodiaSubservienceAbasement Author:Enoch Powell
“It is one of history's most mocking ironies that the German customs union, which set out to dominate Europe and conquer Britain in the form of Bismarckian or Hitlerian military force, has at last vanquished the victor by drawing Britain into a Zollverein which comprises Western Europe and aspires to comprise the Mediterranean as well. If the ghosts of the Hohenzollerns come back to haunt this planet, they must find a lot to laugh at.” IfsWellsLastsFormForceLaughingMilitaryPlanetsEuropeUnionsWesternDrawingGhostConquerIronyBritainCustomsAspireMilitary ForceWestern Europe Author:Enoch Powell
