Use Of Force Quotes - Page 2

• No lo excluyo, pero me gustaría llamar su atención sobre un aspecto absolutamente clave: De acuerdo con el derecho internacional, sólo el Consejo de Seguridad de la ONU puede sancionar el uso de la fuerza contra un Estado soberano. Cualquier otro pretexto o método que pueda utilizarse para justificar el uso de la fuerza contra un Estado soberano independiente es inadmisible y sólo puede interpretarse como una agresión.

• The only proper purpose of a government is to protect man's rights, which means: to protect him from physical violence. A proper government is only a policeman, acting as an agent of man's self-defense, and, as such, may only resort to force only against those who start the use of force.

• God's command to have dominion over every living thing is a call to service, a test of responsibility, a rule of love, a cooperation with nature, whereas Satan's use of force for the sake of getting gain renders the earth uninhabitable. Brigham Young's views on the environment direct attention to man's responsibility to beautify the earth, to eradicate the influences of harmful substances, and to use restraint, that the earth may return to its paradisiacal glory.

• I didn't actually know what the protesters in the West really wanted. It was fantastic here, so much freedom, and that was what they were calling musty, middle-class, and fascistic, a bleak period. Bleak was what the GDR was, and it alone had adopted, almost unchanged, Nazi Germany's methods of intimidation and ideas about propaganda and the use of force.

• The use of force is easy to rationalize in terms of basic economics. 'We should make them PAY for what they've done!' It's just the law of demand: raise the price of crossing us, and fewer people will cross us. Make the price another Hiroshima, and perhaps the quantity demanded will fall to zero.

• Let us be clear: censorship is cowardice. ... It masks corruption. It is a school of torture: it teaches, and accustoms one to the use of force against an idea, to submit thought to an alien "other." But worst still, censorship destroys criticism, which is the essential ingredient of culture.

• The use of force alone is but temporary. It may subdue for a moment; but it does not remove the necessity of subduing again; and a nation is not governed, which is perpetually to be conquered.

• Men in Government monopolize the necessary use of force; they are not using their energies productively; they are not milking cows. To get butter, they must use guns; they have nothing else to use.

• Iran has essentially mastered all of the complex science and technology that they need to have a completely indigenous nuclear weapons program. That means that our options on Iran are extremely limited, to regime change or as a last resort, the use of force.

• La consecuencia necesaria del derecho del hombre a la vida es su derecho a la autodefensa. En una sociedad civilizada, la fuerza sólo puede usarse como represalia y sólo contra aquellos que inician su uso. Todas las razones que hacen que la iniciación de la fuerza física sea un mal, hacen que el uso de la fuerza física como represalia sea un imperativo moral. Si alguna sociedad "pacifista" renunciara al uso de la fuerza como represalia, quedaría indefensa a merced del primer matón que decidiera ser inmoral. Una sociedad así conseguiría lo contrario de lo que pretende: en lugar de abolir el mal, lo fomentaría y recompensaría.

• El enfoque libertario es muy simétrico: el principio de no agresión no excluye la fuerza, sino sólo su iniciación. En otras palabras, sólo se permite el uso de la fuerza en respuesta al uso de la fuerza por parte de otra persona. Si no usan la fuerza, no puedes usarla tú. Hay una simetría: fuerza por fuerza, pero no fuerza si no se ha utilizado fuerza.

• What China would do, I cannot predict. China has all but given up the claim to the use of force, except in the circumstance of Taiwan declaring its independence. That is a huge step forward over what the situation was many years ago.

• The use of force is always an answer to problems. Whether or not it's a satisfactory answer depends on a number of things, not least the personality of the person making the determination. Force isn't an attractive answer, though. I would not be true to myself or to the people I served with in 1970 if I did not make that realization clear.

• When you look at the Justice Department's report talking about the Ferguson Police Department's rampant pattern of discrimination and its excessive use of force against African-American citizens, it's hard to try to rationalize how this cesspool of racism doesn't spill over onto the individual officers.

• It is curious that people tend to regard government as a quasi-divine, selfless, Santa Claus organization. Government was constructed neither for ability nor for the exercise of loving care; government was built for the use of force and for necessarily demagogic appeals for votes. If individuals do not know their own interests in many cases, they are free to turn to private experts for guidance. It is absurd to say that they will be served better by a coercive, demagogic apparatus.

• The international community...cannot simply call on Palestinians to abandon violence in the face of Israeli occupation and remain silent when the nonviolent activists are politically repressed. This only reinforces the idea that the use of force reigns supreme and that Palestinians have no choice but to accept hardships at the hands of their Israeli lords.
