Evidence
A pretty pictureābut of an apocalyptic rather than a historical quality. The events of the last few years have shown that the removal of particular grievances produces no real alleviation, since the general upsurge of anti-Western feeling soon ļ¬nds other outlets and expressions. They have shown, too, that though anti- Western feeling was directed chieļ¬y against Britain and France, it was to no small extent in their capacity as leaders of the Western world. ā Bernard Lewis, From Babel to Dragomans, 1189 (
