Literally on the eve of Germany’s invasion of Belgium in 1914, British Foreign Secretary Sir Edward Grey said “The lamps are going out all over Europe, we shall not see them lit again in our life-time”.
He was right.
The Great War killed nearly 10,000 men a day, every day, seven days a week, for over four years.
Europe never recovered.
That’s true.
This time America shouldn’t and really can’t intervene.
