Book Review: The End of Illusions by Joseph Loconte: "Paul L. Blakely declares that '[i]n the moment that this country goes to war, the guarantees of the American Constitution will be swept aside by a dictatorship.'
Georgia Harkness calls for an 'international police force in a world federation of states.... involving some surrender of national sovereignty and much economic reorganization.'
Harry Emerson Fosdick asserts that 'the all but unanimous judgment seems to be that we, the democracies, are just as responsible for the rise of the dictators as the dictatorships themselves, and perhaps more so.'
Are Blakely, Harkness, and Fosdick modern-day liberals decrying the war in Iraq?
No, they are pacifist theologians arguing against U.S. involvement in World War II. "
