家园 yes, 摩擦是一门艺术。我们必须重拾这门我们曾精通的艺

Anglos have famous saying: no friend is eternal and no enemy is perpetual. But our interests are the eternal and perpetual.

Englishmen followed this principle when they interfered in North America and Europe. Americans learned from their English cousins and just did the same thing.

FOR STATESMAN, STABBING YOUR ALLY IN THE BACK IS JUST YOUR DAILY BUSINESS. "It is just business, nothing in person". Period.

from wiki.

Regarding this aspect of international relations, Lord Palmerston said:

“ Therefore I say that it is a narrow policy to suppose that this country or that is to be marked out as the eternal ally or the perpetual enemy of England. We have no eternal allies, and we have no perpetual enemies. Our interests are eternal and perpetual, and those interests it is our duty to follow.[18]
