This quote is a little dated now, so you can substitute America for ‘Germany, France or Italy’ but it’s as relevant as ever.
Prudence is not cowardice. But there’s also another thing to avoid: the woolly talk of “peace” and “responsibility”, which actually means urging, or ultimately even compelling, other people to sacrifice their own homes, freedom and security, so that citizens of countries such as Germany, France or Italy can, if only in the short term, go on enjoying these things for themselves. The west has done that many times before to people in central and eastern Europe. Let’s not do it again.

Photo of one of my favourite places for my first post through Flashes. Black Nore Beach in Portishead.
Looking across a stony, rocky beach, with piles of driftwood, towards a small white lighthouse on a rock promontory slightly above the beach.

Great day out on the mountain in Roc d’Enfer earlier this week.
A view over a snowy ski run, blue sky and sun, in the French Alps.
