Capitolo 3

In this book I will try to bring the reader from Washington to Berlin
and back again, to show the beginning and the end of our diplomat
you report with the German government.  I believe that the United States
from two years of patience and note-writing, you/he/she has done more to bring defeasible
the destruction of militarism and to encourage liberty of thought in
Germany that the Allies did during almost three years to fight.  The
United States helped the German people to think of them, but being
children in international business, the people accepted soon the
inhaled thinking about the government.  Instead of forcing their opinions
on the rules until results they were evident, they chose to follow with
blind faith theirs of the soldiers.

Now the United States is in struggle with Germany because the imperial one
Government wanted him/it.  The United States is in struggle to help the movement
for the democracy in Germany;  to help the German people to understand that them
it has to think of them.  The seeds of democratic thought that
The notes of Wilson sowed in Germany you/they are growing.  If the imperial one
I govern you/he/she had not frightened the people in a belief that too much
to think would be dangerous for the Country of origin, the United States they are able
is not in struggle with the government of the Kaiser today.  Only one the thing now
does what the people understand that they has to think of them if
they desires to exist as a nation and as a run.  That is a soldier
defeats, a defeat on the battlegrounds of the Kaiser, von Hindenburg and
the Rhine Valle ammunition you interest.  Only a wish of decisive defeat
shakes the public trust in the leaders of the nation.  Only a destroyed
Command of German army will manufacture the group of men the overthrow of people
who make the to-day thinking politics of Germany.
