444. Against us stands the world's greatest sham of a people ... the Judas among nations, who this time, for a change, betrays Germanism for thirty pieces of silver. Against us stands sensual France, the harlot (_Dirne_) among the peoples, to be bought for any prurient excitement, shameless, unblushing, impudent and cowardly [!] with her worthless myrmidons.--"War Devotions," by PASTOR J. RUMP, quoted in H.A.H., p. 117. =Sir Edward Grey and his Colleagues.= 445. Abysmal hypocrisy ... the national vice has been incarnated for us in Sir Edward Grey.--PROF. G. ROETHE, D.R.S.Z., No. i, p. 14. 446. When that English gentleman, Minister Grey, who has a cancerous tumour in place of a heart, in the end has to reap the infamy he deserves, he will promptly cast it from him as dirt with his horse-hoof.--PASTOR TOLZIEN, in "Patriotic-Evangelical War Lectures," quoted in H.A.H., p. 141. 447. The Englishman treats the foreigner, when he does not need him, as thin air, when he does need him, as a piece of goods; consequently, when he sits in the Cabinet, he considers that, towards a foreign State, a lie is not a lie, deceit is not deceit, and a surprise attack in time of peace is a perfectly legitimate measure, so long as it serves England's interests.--PROF. W. WUNDT, D.N.I.P., p. 131. 448. Sir Edward Grey possesses in a singular degree the gift of carrying on business with complete control of all emotion and elimination of all deep thought. Every third word of such person is the untranslatable, elusive, "I dare say."--O.A.H. SCHMITZ, D.W.D., p. 14. 449. The untruthfulness and unscrupulous brutality with which the English Cabinet carries on the war place it far below the level of Muscovite morality.--"GERMANUS."--B.U.D.K., p. 35. 450. The English diplomatist of the type of Sir Edward Grey holds honesty in political matters to be a blunder and a sin. Therefore he usually expresses himself in a form which is capable of several interpretations.--"GERMANUS," B.U.D.K., p. 18. 451. Sir Edward Grey has for years presided over all the peace conferences--only to ensure the coming of the projected war; he has for years sought a "better understanding" with Germany--only to prevent the honest German statesmen and diplomats from suspecting that a war of annihilation had been irrevocably decreed; the German Emperor, at the last moment, had almost averted the danger of war--Grey, the unctuous apostle of peace, contrived so to shuffle the cards as to render it inevitable.--H.S. CHAMBERLAIN, K.A., p. 66. _For "shuffling the cards" compare No. 371._ 452. The President of the United States, Professor Wilson ... allows American munition works to supply our enemies with unlimited quantities of war material, favours the infamous design of England to starve out Germany, and rises in his "peace" speeches to a height of political and religious hypocrisy in no way inferior to that attained by the English "million-murderer" Grey.--PROF. E. HAECKEL, E.W., p. 61.
