Chapter 1343 – Lost Victory

“That’s a shame.” Alan Wilson hypocritically expressed his regret, he had a habit of really hating people going to his own home, no matter how close or distant the person was. However, he personally preferred to be a guest in other people’s homes, and this behavior was simply a double standard.

After the two men had left, not far from the end of the day, Alan Wilson took out a set of playing cards and casually smoked them before packing up and leaving Whitehall.

“What a surprise.” Monroe, who opened the door, was slightly surprised as to how this man had thought to get up and come to his place today.

“What’s surprising, you’re a lady on equal footing with my wife.” Alan Wilson squeezed in with a gentle smile, it all started with poker and fate.

Monroe sidestepped out of the way as well, and even today she had to admit that the man was absolutely nothing but married in the rest of his ways, loved to please women, and was sincere about it.

Monroe did not know that she was not the only woman who commented so, if it were not for these stumbling blocks on the road to success in, the Cabinet Secretary could have made a greater contribution to Britain.

“Robert Kennedy is picking up well, and it seems almost inevitable that he will take the Democratic candidate.” Alan Wilson put down his briefcase and leaned directly and not too elegantly on the sofa.

Monroe, despite her mediocre origins, was still very attentive to her place and brought a pillow to stuff in the man’s back, inquiring, “Is it that certain?”

“I’m even certain that he’s in danger, though I have no proof and you shouldn’t spread it around.”

Alan Wilson sighed as he changed his stance to look directly into Monroe’s eyes, “JFK’s murder became an unsolved case, if those murderers were still alive, would they have allowed his brother to become president? Robert Kennedy was also Attorney General and knows exactly how to get things out of the way. It’s too dangerous, and if it were me, I certainly couldn’t allow him to come to power.”

Mentally calculating the time, Robert Kennedy probably had about two months left to live, and whoever took out Kennedy now was simply wishing that he, Kennedy’s brother, wasn’t so popular.

Once it’s determined that he can’t be prevented from entering the White House through normal means, then even the President can be taken out, what’s one more candidate?

Is that right? Monroe was a little disoriented, but immediately her face returned to normal, “Like you know much about it, you haven’t even been to America a few times.”

“That’s how it is in deep government, it’s not the same as distinguishing which country.” Alan Wilson took Monroe’s hand and yanked it into his arms in an old-fashioned manner, “My powers as Cabinet Secretary are unlimited.”

The two Kennedy brothers were certainly a mess when it came to their personal morals, but in many things they did convince Americans that they were for the betterment of this country.

The Robert Kennedy of the election was also setting up the anti-war flag, saying in a speech that our brave young men, were dying in the swamps of Southeast Asia.

One of these people might write a poem, one of these people might cure cancer, one of these people might win a prize in the World Series or give us a laugh on stage; or build a bridge or a college, one of these people teach a child to read.

It is our responsibility to keep these people alive. How sad it would be if they died because of the vanity of their own country.

But for a war that has already been waged, this kind of statement is not a statement that is acceptable to everyone, and for the strongest country in the world, other countries don’t expect anything from you according to the average country, and a defeat of the United States would be a huge setback to national confidence.

Fortunately, every few years the Soviet Union jumped into Afghanistan, or the United States for a long time will be deeply troubled by the aftermath, in case the Soviet Union also learn a major power to carry out a limited intervention, replaced the head of the Afghan government, in planting Amin to make peace with Pakistan to recognize the Durand Line, the Soviet Union is invited to take out the traitors on the withdrawal of the troops?

The next step is to use the powerful heavy industry armed Afghanistan to recover the homeland, in instigating India’s north-south pincer attack, their own do the two countries of the rear.

In a few decades later perspective, this is entirely possible, except that the Soviet Union’s diplomatic capabilities and the country is the same as the diode, from the middle of the road.

If he were Soviet that would have been the route to follow, but he was British and didn’t have to envision how to keep the USSR from falling into a hole, and from this time the USSR was inching its way to the top, and as soon as it was confirmed that the US couldn’t hold its own in Vietnam, the USSR would turn defense into offense.

The problem now is that this time Robert Kennedy’s anti-war rhetoric is very embarrassing to the U.S. The U.S. still feels that the advantage is mine and that the situation in Vietnam can still be saved save save save.

And there was another move by the Kennedy family last year when the famous Soviet poet Evgeny Yevtushenko came to visit the United States.

Robert F. Kennedy hosted a gala dinner for him at his home in Hickory Hill, which is typical of the Kennedy family’s “outward influence” approach. The Kennedys and Yevgeny Yevtushenko talked for hours about poetry, the Cold War, Vietnam and hundreds of other topics. It’s hard not to think much of it.

“It’s too dangerous to be in politics.” Monroe stared up at the man who claimed to be the supreme authority in England, “Let’s see if you’ll sacrifice me for something.”

“That would never happen, I’m not that kind of man.” Alan Wilson said thoughtlessly, “It’s not like I need to be Prime Minister or President, I’ve done the deep government thing a long time ago.”

April 1 morning, after Dubai rest day Pamela Mountbatten, appeared in the London international airport, out of the airport to see a familiar figure, quickly walked two steps into the arms of her husband, “did not take advantage of my absence in London to do bad things, right?”

“I’m not that kind of person.” The moral vacuum spoke just so plainly and so confidently, reaching out and patting Pamela Mountbatten lightly on the back, grabbing hands directly side by side as they made their way out the door.

It was as if the two had just met in that time, when, having known each other for a short time, they had suddenly felt that their greatest interest was in two people alone together talking and chatting, and that they could go on from morning until night and still not talk enough. It was then, as it were, that they suddenly fell into that mythical world of love that they had secretly longed for since childhood and adolescence.

It was the time of the subcontinent’s dry heat, and the sun over New Delhi hung low in the sky like a crimson ball of fire, red and enchanting. The love between the two was swirling in a wild ride of uninterrupted bliss, a bliss that seemed like a fait accompli, or at least a fact that was about to be realized.

However, it was at that moment that something seemed to start poisoning their happiness, making the beautiful feelings less natural.

“Two days in Kuala Lumpur on the way here, all in the Middle East talking to Princess Badia.” Pamela Mountbatten spoke of what she had seen and heard on her return, which was generally quite good, “But my dear, as you know father is acquainted with many of the generals in the American military, and it seems that the position of Commander-in-Chief of the U.S. Army for this term? It’s already unsteady.”

“Just that Admiral Westmoreland? He is indeed almost bound to this war already, I wouldn’t struggle if I were him.” Alan Wilson replied with a light laugh, “Might as well talk tough to the end, that way he can still stick close to the support of the conservatives, I think the most important person he should learn from right now is Manstein, hurry up and write a book of lost victories, dump the blame on the US government, emphasize that the US army fought valiantly, and it’s all because of the government’s incompetence dragging its feet that caused the delayed victory.”

“Your mouth is still as sharp as ever.” Pamela Mountbatten couldn’t help but snicker at the fact that Manstein was quite well known around the world, but her own husband didn’t seem to treat the German general very well.

“My rockets are the sharp ones!” Allen Wilson just didn’t have a tail or he would have been up in the air already, not forgetting to mouth off at this point in time.

“I’ll see if it’s as sharp as it says when the time comes.” Pamela Mountbatten raised one eyebrow, then spoke of another issue, “You asked me to terminate the gold squeeze, why?”

“The reason is that France is having indigestion right now, and the gold run has brought about an appreciation of the franc, and like I said right before the gold run. France doesn’t have the power yet to drive the rest of Europe to move with France, and the French are getting the gold, but the pressure from the appreciation of the franc is also causing the pressure on France’s exports to increase.”

Alan Wilson spoke eloquently of the French move to squeeze the gold has reached a tipping point, and that tipping point is whether French industry can afford the continued appreciation of the franc.

France to the United States one-sixth of the total economy, swallowed a few thousand tons of gold into, will certainly be indigestion.

This time the run on gold, other countries are also watching, mainly watching two points, France can still swallow how much, the second point is the United States will not retaliate against France, this retaliation refers to the financial sector.

If France can no longer continue to run down, the French run has peaked. And if the United States can not make France lose in the financial field, then show that this round of France’s run, but also proved the weakness of the Federal Reserve, the former is just a measure of the financial strength of France, the latter is of great significance, you can not even retaliate against France, there are other countries it.

Not to mention other countries, and France has the same economic strength of the Federal Republic of Germany, in addition to the Federal Republic of Germany there is also the United Kingdom, carry France does not mean that you can also carry the other two.

“But then again, how much gold have you exchanged after the French ass over the years.” Alan Wilson was also interested in the question, and it was the first time he had asked it.

“I thought you would always act like you weren’t interested, finally you couldn’t resist.” Pamela Mountbatten smiled brightly after hearing this, stretching out four fingers, “Less than four hundred, isn’t it great, if you want to praise it, be quick, it’s still useful to praise it now.”

“My Pamela is amazing.” Alan Wilson pinched his wife’s chin and tugged lightly twice, “Hurry up and stick your tongue out.”
