What would be the consequences for the great Anglo-Saxon republic for example were its citizens to secede from their sound principle of reserve, and mingle with their negro and coloured populations? In the course of time, they would become so deteriorated that their states would probably be reconquered and regained by the aborigines whom they have expelled and who would then be their superiors. But though nature will never ultimately permit this theory of natural equality to be practised, the preaching of this dogma has already caused much mischief and may cause more. The native tendency of the Jewish race, who are justly proud of their blood, is against the doctrine of the equality of man. ... - "How quickly, within one generation, Disraeli's ideas could be turned, murderously, against the Jews themselves.", - says A N Wilson, and he's on a dangerous ground here, i say. He's dangerously close to this action/reaction principle ... which, if applied to antisemitism, would place him squarely on the wrong side of the barricade.

Пусть будет, как будет,
ведь как-нибудь да будет,
никогда так не было,
чтобы никак не было.

Если жизнь протекает хорошо,
значит, она дала трещину.

В действительности все совсем не так, как на самом деле.
