In 1859 the notable empires were British, Russian, Chinese (Qing), Turkish (Ottoman), and the US continental empire. I would bet most US college students or even many professors, if asked, would say that 19th century imperialism was "Western"; would certainly forget Qing China…

It is my experience that people who get knocked out in foreign countries usually deserve it for being disrespectful to local people.

In 1948 Albert Einstein foresaw the Israeli terrorism in Palestine that would eventually bring a catastrophe on the Jewish colonists.

What do you notice as this man talks? - At no time is it about him. - It’s about the training. - It’s about the team. - It’s about the mission. Some of that he gained in the job. Most of that he gained as a kid.
