...agree with all that the colonels have done in the past, but history and time will tell whether their simplistic approach to government founded on love for God, country and honor was not, in the end, the most realistic and humane of all approaches. It may be that Americans will grow to envy this simplicity and straightforwardness of the colonels. It may be, too, that old-fashioned country morality is what we in the U.S.A. need most today. Rest assured, the Greek is too individualistic to allow any dictatorship to last. But his tradition-oriented philosophy does not allow...
...first hours of De Gaulle's defeat, the jovial, ursine Pompidou was maintaining the respectful silence of a mourner. A onetime classics teacher, he knew how to honor the tragedy of the fall of a great man. But as a former Rothschild banker, he was also well aware of the fund of admiration and good will that the French people hold for him. When the Latin Quarter was a battleground last May and June, De Gaulle cut and ran for Colombey and very nearly quit.

Nixon, who had built much of his reputation on militant antiCommunism, kept his response to the minimum consistent with national honor and domestic politics. As Secretary of State Rogers acknowledged, great power-and responsibility-often imposes narrow limits on national choice...
...hate the U.S. Yoshi Hisano, a Japanese businessman who was in Pyongyang the day that the U.S. plane was downed, reported that for a few hours last week the capital was in a surprisingly cheerful mood. There were numerous parades, fitted out with the standard banners and placards in honor of Kim's birthday. Early that evening, however, radio and television announcers spat out bulletins on what they called North Korea's "brilliant battle success," and the birthday cheer was replaced by the all-too-familiar shouts of "Liberate the South!" and "Down with U.S. Imperialism!" During Hisano...
