The doors of Palestine were closed to Jewish immigrants, and no country could be found that would admit those forsaken people. They were left to perish like their brothers and sisters in the occupied countries. We shall never forget the heroic efforts of the small countries, of the Scandinavian, the Dutch, the Swiss nations, and of individuals in the occupied part of Europe who did all in their power to protect Jewish lives ~ ~ Morality in Europe today is herd-morality ~ ~ To understand Europe, you have to be a genius - or French. ~ ~ Europe was created by history. America was created by philosophy. ~ ~ The poor are the blacks of Europe ~ ~ Anyone who has to fight, even with the most modern weapons, against an enemy in complete command of the air, fights like a savage against modern European troops, under the same handicaps and with the same chances of success ~ ~ The best performers in Europe are those who use their welfare states to help people adjust to change ~ ~ The euro will raise the citizens' awareness of their belonging to one Europe more than any other integration step to date ~ ~ It is the hope of the European Union that Ariel Sharon will keep the peace process alive and continue the dialogue according to the wishes of all the parties involved. ~ ~ Instead of explaining the sober facts of mechanics and electricity, I want to say a few words about the debt which we owe to youth; and with your permission I shall consider you as representing here not only the academic youth of Sweden nor even of Europe but also of America. ~ |
