She's 11.
And when she finished reading it, she saw this vinyl record that I had, which was a vinyl record of Churchill speeches that I was given by my mother-in-law.
And we ended up listening to this speech he gave in 1943 to Harvard University about the way he saw the world after the Second World War.
Basically, he said, the United States has a responsibility to operate in the world.
It cannot withdraw from the world.
If there was going to be peace after the Second World War, there needed to be something that he called a World Council.
So I guess something resembling the UN Security Council.
And then after the war, the Truman Doctrine happened.
And it just so happens that this week is the 80th anniversary of the beginning of the UN Security Council.
So, Jeremy, what do you make of that ambition to create this kind of international rules based world order?
Was it an admirable thing or was it misguided?
By contrast, what would you say was an example of a story that you've reported on where the so-called international rules-based order didn't work?
Oh, cheese-eating surrender monkeys, wasn't it?
As a counterpoint to the examples that you gave of places that would seem to prove that the international rules-based order hasn't worked.
So the second Gulf War in Gaza, there are people who might say that those two wars, those two conflicts are examples of why it's right to try and pursue a rules-based international order.
Because, for example, if George W. Bush had listened to the United Nations when it refused to give a resolution approving the war, then maybe the war wouldn't have happened and maybe hundreds of thousands of lives might have been saved.
And there are other people who might say that the quote-unquote rules-based international order tried to intervene in Gaza.
So, for example, the International Criminal Court has indicted individuals, including Benjamin Netanyahu and the leadership of Hamas,
for alleged crimes committed in Gaza.
And on October the 7th, the International Court of Justice has attempted to intervene as well.
