“They that go down to the sea in ships, that do
business in great waters;
These see the works of the Lord, and his wonders
in the deep.”
- Psalm 107
The principles a state deploys globally in order to protect its own national
interest , security of its citizens and its rightful sovereignty.
The policies must protect a state’s borders and the economic climate within.
Dominate sovereignties must protect well being of weaker states from
aggressive neighbors.
“Realist” Foreign Policy
Augur of Conflict
Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every
rocket fired signifies in the final sense, a theft from those
who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are
not clothed. This world in arms is not spending money
alone. It is spending the sweat of its laborers, the genius of
its scientists, the hopes of its children. This is not a way of
life at all in any true sense. Under the clouds of war, it is
humanity hanging on a cross of iron.
-Eisenhower
