Produktbeschreibung
Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Saber-noise or saber-rattling (Spanish: ruido de sables) may be used to refer to a historical incident in Chilean history that took place on September 3, 1924, when a group of young military officers protested against the political class and the postponement of social measures by rattling their sabers within their scabbards. This is not the origin of the phrase, however; in speaking at a Congressional hearing of the need for Pacific coast fortifications to address the rising militarism of Japan, on February 21, 1921, Congressman John F. Miller made repeated reference to Japan as the place "where the saber is rattling", and it is apparent that it was regarded as a common figure of speech at the time.
