Therefore, I say that for the people of the belligerent countries, the only way out of this war is to tear up the current "Magna Carta of Freedom" and formulate a new kind of Magna Carta. The "Magna Carta of Loyalty" possessed by the religion of good people. In order to prove the effectiveness of my proposal, let me remind the people of Europe and America to pay attention to the fact that it was the absolute loyalty of the people of Japan and Russia to their rulers that enabled former President Roosevelt to be loyal to the late Japanese Emperor and Russians. The current tsar formed a successful appeal and ended the Russo-Japanese War, culminating in a peace at Portsmouth (77).In Japan, this kind of absolute loyalty of the people is protected by the "Loyalty Magna Carta" of the good people's religion learned from China.But in Russia, the absolute loyalty of the Russian people is obtained by the power of the whip, because there is no good civil religion with a "Loyalty Magna Carta" in Russia.

Now let's see what happened to them after the Treaty of Portsmouth, in countries like Japan that had the religion of good people and their "Magna Charter of Loyalty", and in countries like Russia that didn't.In Japan, after the Treaty of Portsmouth, the people of Tokyo, whose religion of good people was undermined by the new European learning, clamored and tried to terrorize - but the "Magna Carta of Loyalty" of those Japanese people who were truly immortal at heart, in some police With the assistance of the Chinese Communist Party, it took only one day to suppress the demonstrations and the fear of the people.Moreover, since then, not only has Japan achieved permanent peace, but the Far East has also become much more stable.But in Russia, since the signing of the Treaty of Portsmouth, people have also held demonstrations and tried to create fear all over the country.But because Russia does not have a good civil religion, and the whip that maintains the absolute loyalty of the Russian people is also broken.Since then, the common people of Russia have had every right to create riots and constitutions, to march and to create fear - the kind of fear of the integrity and security of the Russian Empire and the Slavic race, the prospect of peace in Europe.As a result, when the slightest disagreement arose between Austria-Hungary and Russia as to what to do with the murderer of the Archduke of Austria (78), the Russian commoners, the mob, were able to raise their voices and create a crisis that endangered the Russian Empire. Fear of integrity and security, so the Russian Empire and its advisers mobilized the entire Russian army.In other words, mobilizing the terrifying modern machinery created by John Smith, Bobbs and Moses Ram.When that modern machine of terror, the modern militarism of Russia, was launched, it at once aroused a general fear among the peoples of Europe, and it was this pervasive fear which controlled and destroyed the rulers, soldiers and soldiers of belligerent countries. And the brains of diplomats, and make them feel helpless, this helplessness, as I said before, led to this terrible war.

So, if you look into the matter deeply, you will find that the real source of this war is the Treaty of Portsmouth.The reason why I say that the root of the war lies in the Treaty of Portsmouth is because after the signing of the treaty, the power of the whip, the whip, was completely broken in Russia, so that there was no longer any power that could save the Russian Empire. The common people, the fear of the populace, in fact, the fear of the Russian mob, is free from the fear of the unity and security of the Tsarist Empire and the Slavic races.The German poet Heine, the most eminent liberal, in fact the best liberal of his time, observed with unusual observation: "Russian despotism is a true dictatorship, which tolerates absolutely no other Something exists that might spread our modern conception of liberty." In fact, I reiterated that after the Treaty of Portsmouth, the Russian dictatorship -- the whip, the power of the whip, was finished.Consequently, there was no longer any power to protect the Russian rulers, soldiers, and diplomats from the mob.These mobs are the source of the wars I have spoken of.In other words, the real root and cause of this war is the fear of the mob.

In the past, the responsible rulers of the nations of Europe were able to maintain order at home and keep peace internationally in Europe because they feared and worshiped God.And now, what I want to say is that the rulers, soldiers and diplomats of European countries today fear and worship not God, but mobs—the rabble of people in their countries.After the Napoleonic Wars, Tsar Alexander I, who established the Holy Alliance, was able not only to maintain the domestic order in Russia, but also to maintain international peace in Europe, because he feared God.And today's Russian tsar can neither maintain domestic order nor maintain international peace in Europe, that is because what he fears is not God, but the mob.In Great Britain, rulers like Cromwell were able to preserve both their own domestic order and the international peace of Europe precisely because they worshiped God.But today's current rulers of Great Britain, responsible statesmen like Lord Gray, Esquith, Churchill and Lloyd George, can neither maintain domestic order nor international peace in Europe, and that's because they don't worship God , but to worship mobs—not only mobs in England, but mobs in other countries as well.The late Prime Minister of Great Britain, Mr. Campbell Banreman, when the Russian Duma was dissolved, shouted: "Duma (79) is finished, that damned Duma!"
