These principles spring almost exclusively from the European Enlightenment and its militantly secular program of creating a godless heaven on earth. When given free reign, it always produces a Satanic hell on earth. The communist states of the twentieth century are prime examples. Their goal is the secularization of the world, usually by the instrument of externally peaceful but nonetheless strong-armed politics, and a relentless propaganda. Nonetheless, as NATO's recent war against Serbia proved, democratic internationalists are no less averse than communistic internationalists to employing political violence in a quest for world domination.
Political internationalists are hypocrites, however.
The same political internationalists who savagely bombed Serbia sat idly by while defenseless Rwandans were massacred to the tune of a thousand a day in 1994. The leaders of Western democracy suffer from selective moral outrage. From a Biblical standpoint, nations are limited to jurisdiction within their own borders. This has nothing to do with private trade. The Bible nowhere prohibits peaceful trade across borders.
