People will still cling to national symbols.~ Henry Morgenthau, Jr.Each person will have a registered number, without which he will not be allowed to buy or sell; and there will be one universal world church. Anyone who refuses to take part in this universal system will have no right to exist.~ Dr. Kurt E. KochToday Americans would be outraged if U.N. troops entered Los Angeles to restore order; tomorrow they will be grateful.
