Why a Little Paranoia of Foreign Regimes is Wise - A Book Review on International Trade Law



AppId is over the quota

President Ronald Reagan used to say; "trust but verify" and although that meant taking a foreign leader at his word, it also meant, check to make sure that their words are legitimate. Why?

Well, perhaps because it is the most deceitful that often become leaders of nations, meaning they are already accomplished liars, thus, you better follow up on anything they say or do. Speaking of which, let me recommend an excellent book on International Trade Law

"International Trade Law" by Indira Carr; Routledge Cavendish Publishers (2005)

This book is important and well known to International Law Professors that instruct on Trade Issues. Maybe some of our own leadership ought to become acquainted with it? And before I go any further let me recommend another book to you by David Lindgren: "Trust but Verify: Imagery Analysis in the Cold War" printed in 2005, because this book and especially the first book I mentioned is important to my next point

Interestingly enough, now it is our own Homeland Security or the authors of their recent unclassified report on "Right Wing Extremists" that seems to be a little paranoid of the most patriotic Americans. In their report they actually list "Paranoia of Foreign Regimes" as one of the signs that someone is a right-wing extremist and thus, needs to be watched?

Think to yourself how all this relates to the present period. Should Americans trust the Iranian President who made that comment about "blowing Israel off the map" or how about the North Korean Kim Jong Il who said "Never Again" with regards to six-party negotiation talks on their nuclear ballistic missile program? Should we trust Hugo Chavez, who has rigged the elections in Ecuador, Argentina, El Salvador and Nicaragua?

Or should be trust Cuba as a trading partner, a nation that owes nearly 30 Billion Dollars to other nations for trade goods it never paid for? We as Americans should be paranoid of foreign regimes, but our DHS should not be paranoid of patriotic Americans. I ask who is in the right state of mind; You or the DHS leadership and report writers?
