54082	{ 238} But M. Venizelos was not asking himself,"Can I do it?"
54082	{ 305} If the army and the navy were powerless, how about the people of the capital?
11895	What is this I hear, Jones, that you do not believe in the Monroe Doctrine?
11895	A critic once put to me what he evidently deemed a poser:"Do you urge that we shall be stronger than our enemy, or weaker?"
11895	And does Mr. Chesterton suggest that the war system settles these matters to perfection?
11895	And does the passage I have quoted mean that we-- that English diplomacy-- has had no part in European diplomacy in the past?
11895	And if it is not true?
11895	And if that assumption-- plainly indicated as it is by a Liberal Minister-- is right, who can say that Lord Roberts''conclusion is not justified?
11895	Are theories and logic of the slightest use, since force alone can determine the issue?
11895	Are those Pacifists, who try at the same time to be Democrats, prepared to acquiesce in such a conclusion?
11895	But does this mean that if one threatens to take my purse, I am not allowed to use force to prevent it?
11895	But what are the facts?
11895	But what, it will be said, is the practical outcome?
11895	Can not we afford to set aside those old passions and see how far in one particular at least they may have been right?
11895	Could any remedy have been devised on the whole so conclusive and complete as that used by the Balkan peoples?
11895	Could we ask a better illustration than the history of the Turk and his Christian victims?
11895	Do we know the intention of England with reference to Woman''s Suffrage or Home Rule or Tariff Reform?
11895	Does a First Lord want new ships?
11895	Does he want to join in Armageddon?
11895	Face to face with this manifestation, who is the man bold enough to say that force is never a remedy?
11895	Had he read these volumes, that he talked so disrespectfully of their contents?
11895	Has our own policy been a large factor in determining that of the Powers?
11895	Has our own policy directly prevented in the past the triumph of the Christian populations which, despite that policy, has finally taken place?
11895	Have not the Balkan peoples redeemed War from the charges too readily brought against it as simply an instrument of barbarism?
11895	Have questions of profit and loss, economic considerations, anything whatever to do with this war?
11895	Have we not, on the contrary, by universal admission played a predominant role by backing the wrong horse?
11895	How, therefore, can we know the intentions of"Germany"?
11895	I replied as follows: Mr. Cecil Chesterton says that the question which I have raised is this:"Should usurers go to war?"
11895	Is War impossible?
11895	Is it futile?
11895	Is it not a commonplace that in India, quite as much as in the New World, the trader and the settler drove out the soldier and the conqueror?
11895	Is it unlikely?
11895	Is not force a remedy, and at times the only remedy?
11895	Is not war therefore inevitable, and must we not prepare diligently for it?
11895	More and more is religious effort being subjected to this test: does it make for the improvement of society?
11895	Now the question immediately arises: Are we prepared to arm any International Tribunal with any such powers?
11895	Now why should there be any danger of Germany bringing about this catastrophe unless she could profit enormously by so doing?
11895	Now, do these things constitute as a national policy an inspiring aim or not?
11895	Now, looking back upon what has since happened, which view shows the greater wisdom and prevision?
11895	Or would we urge that to do so is the way to carry on a trade, or a nation, or a government, or make it the basis of human relationship?
11895	Shall we wait till Consols are 65 and our national credit is gone?
11895	Shall we wait till Germany''s present naval programme, which is every year reducing our advantage, is complete?
11895	Shall we wait till the smouldering industrial revolution, of which all these strikes are warnings, has broken into flame?
11895	That if he threatens to kill me, I am not to defend myself, because"the individual citizens are not allowed to settle their differences by force?"
11895	That it has worked satisfactorily in Ireland and Finland, or, for the matter of that, in Albania or Macedonia?
11895	That of the man who delivered this speech( and he was John Bright) or those against whom he spoke?
11895	The outlook is not very pleasant, is it?
11895	The same correspondent says he is constantly being asked:--"Is there no means of avoiding war?"
11895	Thus Mr. Cecil Chesterton[5]: In essence Mr. Angell''s query is:"Should usurers go to war?"
11895	To which set of principles has time given the greater justification?
11895	Unhappily, one has to ask whether some of these military Pacifists really want it to succeed?
11895	WHAT MUST WE_ DO_?
11895	WHAT MUST WE_ DO_?
11895	Was it the mere hazards of war which gave to Great Britain the domination of India and half of the New World?
11895	Was our own policy at fault when we were led into a war to ensure the"integrity and independence of the Turkish dominions in Europe"?
11895	What Shall we DO?
11895	What do we mean when we speak of the money of a nation, or the self- interest of a community?
11895	What has Pacifism, Old or New, to say now?
11895	What must inevitably happen if the nations take the line of the"practical man,"and limit their energies simply and purely to piling up armaments?
11895	What precisely does it mean?
11895	What then must we_ do_?
11895	What would you have had me reply to those Germans?"
11895	Who is the man who is foolish enough to say that martial virtues do not play a vital part in the health and honour of every people?
11895	Why does Mr. Churchill say it has?
11895	Would any serious politician now be found to deny it?
11895	Would the demonstration of its economic futility have kept the peace?
11895	Would those incendiaries be entitled to say that the town authorities were incendiaries also, and"believed in setting light to towns?"
11895	Yet that is whither the nations are blindly drifting Who, then, makes war?
11895	[ 7] What have peace theories to do with this war?
11895	_ War with Germany is inevitable_, and the only question is-- Shall we consult her convenience as to its date?
11895	_ Why_ should we do it?
11895	in the pound?
