...irrevocably evil, as somehow beyond the pale of civilized society. That analysis is a little glib. Harvard was able to support the United States armed forces eagerly during World War II, and the same might well be true of a future military commitment--in the Middle East or Berlin, for example. There is nothing wrong with the proposition that the role of the military in foreign policy decisions should be curbed, but to pretend that the army is something the country can do without is a ludicrous fiction...

Whether the voters will understand these new distinctions is another matter. The Finnish and Swedish parties both suffered severe losses in recent elections, even though their leaders had denounced the Soviets at the time of the invasion...
