Week 20: 28 September - The Treaty of Versailles
Update: 2019-09-24
Description
With the boys on the boat to Cape Town, and no mail on boats, this week we take a break in our usual broadcast to discuss the Treaty of Versailles in the context of the AIF XI story. Tangents include: The punic peace. The end of empire. The Nazi origins of Cultural Marxism. Champagne and Cognac as reparations. Whenever there’s a straight line on a map, Europeans have been there. Ash Barty and Nick Kyrgios and appropriate behaviour in an assimilationist culture. The Waterford is the pen of the high diplomacy of Versailles, the sharpie is the pen of the high diplomacy of the Trump administration.
