In your column you used the phrase “New World Order” to apply to Tianammen Square and South Africa, where it doesn’t apply. His phrase means that countries work together to stop international ruthless aggression (Did you notice that he used “World Order,” not “Other Countries Internal Order.”). Although we hated seeing the Chinese government crush the student movement and the racism in South Africa, send­ ing troops would not have helped-the oppressed, but only build resentment against the U.S. We fought in Korea and Vietnam to stop what we thought was a threat to the world at that time: communism.
