Yup...... Sting was saying that both the US and USSR were thankfuly
conservative governments, and detente would be the best long-run policy.
Nevertheless, Sting contemplates the horrors of what would happen if he is
wrong about the Russians -and in fact, the Russians did not love their
children too.

And perhaps I should point out, that the Soviet Union never starved its
children and withheld from the general population the way Iraq and
especially the DPRK have.

People everywhere want to say what they think; choose who will govern
them; worship as they please; educate their children -- male and female;
 own property; and enjoy the benefits of their labor. These values of 
freedom are right and true for every person,  in every society -- and the 
duty of protecting these values against their enemies is the common 
calling of freedom-loving people across the globe and across the ages.
