Книга на английском языке
There is an old sarcastic saying to the effect that “you have to know so-and-so pretty well in order to dislike him.” That is about what seems to be happening to us in the Orient. We once were a highly popular nation in this part of the world, but that was when we remained many thousands of miles out of sight of the vast majority of Orientals.
Since the end of World War II we have become a great deal more visible in the Orient, first as liberators of a sort and lately as military protectors and economic advisers.
Thoughtful Orientals, like thoughtful people anywhere, will concede the American aid programs around the world to be examples not only of self interest, but also of generosity and good will. Certainly, no nation before has ever offered anything at all to the Orient without demanding a big pound of flesh in return.
