亨利·福特《我的生活与工作》· My Life and Work · 领导
An impartial investigation of the last war, of what preceded it and what has come out of it, would show beyond a doubt that there is in the world a group of men with vast powers of control, that prefers to remain unknown, that does not seek office or any of the tokens of power, that belongs to no nation whatever but is international--a force that uses every government, every widespread business organization, every agency of publicity, every resource of national psychology, to throw the world into a panic for the sake of getting still more power over the world. An old gambling trick used to be for the gambler to cry "Police!" when a lot of money was on the table, and, in the panic that followed, to seize the money and run off with it. There is a power within the world which cries "War!" and in the confusion of the nations, the unrestrained sacrifice which people make for safety and peace runs off with the spoils of the panic.

白话
福特认为,对上次战争及其前因后果进行公正调查,会毫无疑问地发现世界上存在一群拥有巨大控制权的人。他们宁愿不为人知,不寻求官职或权力象征,不属于任何国家,而是国际性的。这股力量利用每个政府、每个大型商业组织、每个宣传机构、每种民族心理资源,把世界抛入恐慌,以获取更多世界权力。就像老赌博把戏:赌徒在桌上有很多钱时喊“警察!”,趁恐慌抓钱跑掉。世界上有一股力量喊“战争!”,在各国混乱中,人们为安全和平做出的无节制牺牲,让这股力量卷走恐慌的赃物。
上下文
福特在自传中提出阴谋论式的观点,认为有国际势力操纵战争以牟利。
今日一问
面对重大社会恐慌,我是否想过谁在背后获益,而我的反应是否被利用?
