[The Crime Against Europe by Roger Casement]@TWC D-Link bookThe Crime Against Europe CHAPTER IX 15/17
She has injured no man. And now, to-day, it is the great free race of this common origin of peace-loving peoples, filling another continent, that is being appealed to by every agency of crafty diplomacy, in every garb but that of truth, to aid the enemy of both and the arch-disturber of the old world.
The jailer of Ireland seeks Irish-American support to keep Ireland in prison; the intriguer against Germany would win German-American good-will against its parent stock.
There can be no peace for mankind, no limit to the intrigues set on foot to assure Great Britain "the mastery of the seas." If "America" will but see things aright, as a good "Anglo-Saxon" people should, she will take her place beside, nay, even a little in front of John Bull in the plunder of the earth.
Were the "Anglo-Saxon Alliance" ever consummated it would be the biggest crime in human history.
That alliance is meant by the chief party seeking it to be a perpetual threat to the peoples of Europe, nay, to the whole of mankind outside the allied ranks.
