It used to be the case that if my tribe was more powerful than their tribe, I was safe; if my country was more powerful than their country, I was safe; my alliance, like NATO, was more powerful than their alliance, I was safe.
Før var det tilfellet at hvis min stamme var sterkere enn deres stamme så var jeg trygg; hvis mitt land var sterkere enn deres land så var jeg trygg; hvis min allianse som for eksempel NATO var mektigere enn deres allianse, var jeg trygg.
