"But the safety of the people of
America against dangers from foreign force depends not only on their forbearing
to give just causes of war to other nations, but also on their placing and
continuing themselves in such a situation as not to invite hostility or insult;
for it need not be observed that there are pretended as well as just causes of
war."
–John
Jay, Federalist No. 4, 1787
