Swiss army of one
Marc FischerI READ WITH INTEREST Irwin M. Stelzer's "Germany and the F-Word" (March 21). I am a teacher in Geneva, Switzerland--maybe the only European teacher reading THE WEEKLY STANDARD in the salle des maitres.
Unfortunately, my colleagues also prefer "stability" to disturbing the status quo by trying to spread "freedom." It is impossible to have a free talk about U.S. policy, but I take the risk every day. Is the reason for this that the Swiss people have never lived under tyranny (aside from the tyranny of political correctness)?
Hoping to be alive for your next issue.
MARC FISCHER
Geneva, Switzerland
