<strong>of</strong> strategic defense}, based on the defense <strong>of</strong> the common good for the<br />

{general welfare <strong>of</strong> all the peoples <strong>of</strong> the world and their posterity.} Such<br />

was also the Leibnizian inspiration, which Benjamin Franklin had enshrined<br />

in the American Constitution, as late as 1787. That principle also <strong>of</strong>fered a<br />

guarantee <strong>of</strong> immortality for the human species, not only because it favored<br />

the growth <strong>of</strong> the world population, an {increase in the relative potential<br />

population density} per square mile, but also because it included the true<br />

embodiment <strong>of</strong> the Christian principle <strong>of</strong> redemption within the political<br />

domain.<br />

2.2 AGAINST THE PEACE OF WESTPHALIA AND AMERICA.<br />

Synarchism is an oligarchical reaction to the limited success <strong>of</strong> the<br />

historical Peace <strong>of</strong> Westphalia <strong>of</strong> 1648, that is, the unique American<br />

Revolution. As arch-synarchist, Saint-Yves d’Alveydre put it, in his<br />

{Mission des Souverains}, <strong>synarchy</strong> was created against « the monument <strong>of</strong><br />

immorality and <strong>of</strong> iniquity <strong>of</strong> 1648: the general Government <strong>of</strong> ruse and <strong>of</strong><br />

force. »<br />

It is precisely to prevent the American system influence on Europe<br />

that Saint Yves d'Alveydre wrote his infamous <strong>book</strong>, {Mission des<br />

Souverains}. In the preface <strong>of</strong> his <strong>book</strong>, Saint Yves stated that even "{Before<br />

calling upon government cabinets to act, we must first call upon the great<br />

force <strong>of</strong> public opinion, the only lever capable <strong>of</strong> elevating Europe out <strong>of</strong> the<br />

bloody rut which led it to America.}" That "bloody rut", as he called it, was<br />

the Peace <strong>of</strong> Westphalia. Saint Yves wrote:<br />

"{Since the Congres <strong>of</strong> Arras, incapable <strong>of</strong> putting an end to the<br />

Hundred Years war, the Assembly <strong>of</strong> Westphalia was the first almost plenary<br />

meeting bringing the European States together. It was, then or never, the<br />

chance to constitute a General Government, to institute a tribunal <strong>of</strong> Public<br />

Rights, and a Code <strong>of</strong> Nations.<br />

"But, if the Congress <strong>of</strong> Arras had a certain moral and legal<br />

Character, the one <strong>of</strong> Westphalia had absolutely none. The first was a<br />

meeting <strong>of</strong> mediating powers, attempting, without direct interests, to stop a<br />

war between two Christian nations.<br />
