Why is Germany weak?
Because the Germans have lost
control of themselves.
Unless we retain control of our
selves-of our own souls-we have
not won a complete victory over Ger
many. If we retain or acquire COM
plete control over ourselves we can
win the rest of the war. Unless we
do win the rest of the war we have
not only defeated Germany. but we
have defeated and disgraced our
selves!
The saddest nation, the nation
most completely crushed, is the ma
ton defeated by itself; and the deep
est disgrace is that which is self-in-
flicted. Germany can emerge from
her defeat and humiliation and dis
grace, after awhile, by getting a new
grip on her own soul. The only hope
for victory for her is the hope of
victory over herself.
What do mean by suggesting that
we must win ''the rest of the WARP
