Change of heart?

[Damian Andrews]

"The war was begun by the military masters of Germany...." Woodrow Wilson,Flag Day Address,1917

"The German power must be crushed...." Woodrow Wilson,December 4,1917

"I should like to see Germany clean up France and I should like to see Jusserand and tell him so to his face." Woodrow Wilson,December 7,1923

[R.M. Schultz]

What about it? Wilson was a lying son-of-a-bitch who betrayed every one of his own "Fourteen Points."

[Lord Gort]

"Fourteen points! Why God made do with ten!"

[R.M. Schultz]

I believe the actual quote runs:

“God gave us the Ten Commandments, and we broke them. Wilson gives us Fourteen Points. We shall see.”

— Georges Clemanceau

"I should like to see Germany clean up France and I should like to see Jusserand and tell him so to his face." Woodrow Wilson,December 7,1923

Interesting. Does anybody know more about the context of that quote?

[Lord Gort]

Perhaps Wilson was against the occupation of the Ruhr?

[fdewaele]

I thought that Wilson by that time already was a very sick man...

[Beowulf]

Wilson should have stayed at Princeton. He was quite out of place at the helm of a great power.
