Quote by Dwight D Eisenhower

Should a nation which attacks and occupies foreign territory in the face of United Nations disapproval be allowed to impose conditions on its own withdrawal?

Should a nation which attacks and occupies foreign territory

Summary

This quote raises the question of whether a nation that attacks and occupies foreign territory, despite United Nations disapproval, should have the right to dictate the terms of its own withdrawal from that territory. The quote challenges the notion of allowing an aggressor to have control over the situation and calls into question the legitimacy of their actions. It suggests that the occupying nation should not be granted the ability to impose conditions on its withdrawal, as this would undermine the authority of the United Nations and potentially perpetuate the violation of international law.

All mankind is of one author, and is one volume; when one man dies, one chapter is not torn out of the book, but translated into a better language; and every chapter must be so translated...As therefore the bell that rings to a sermon, calls not upon the preacher only, but upon the congregation to come: so this bell calls us all: but how much more me, who am brought so near the door by this sickness....No man is an island, entire of itself; every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main. If a clod be washed away by the sea, Europe is the less, as well as if promontory were, as well as if a manor of thy friend's or of thine own were. Any man's death diminishes me, because I am involved in mankind; and therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee.
