->''You can have the most brutal muderous society internally but it wouldn't be a threat outside. Through history, there has been no correlation between the internal freedom of a society and its violence and aggression abroad. For example, [[UsefulNotes/TheBritishEmpire England]] was the freest country in the world in the 19th Century, yet in UsefulNotes/{{India]] they acted like the Nazis did. The United States is, politically...[[{{Eagleland}} the most open and freest society in the world]] and it also has the record for the record for the most brutal violence and aggression in the world. Now these things are just uncorrelated.''
