La Guerre Froide

Reading a 50 minute French history, I am minded that things done allegedly in service to national interest are not necessarily all on a par.

The US supported Breton Woods, the GATT of 1947, and the founding of the UN in service of the national interest, says the history.

The USSR imposed communist tyranny on half of Europe and threw up the Iron Curtain.

If in pursuit of self interest I beat you out of a job, that is one thing.

If you commit burglary and murder that is quite another.
