Quotes about Strong Vs Weak

Ulysses S. Grant

The Mexican War was one of the most unjust ever waged by a stronger against a weaker nation. We were sent to provoke a fight, but it was essential that Mexico should commence it.

The Polk Administration wanted War with Mexico but felt it would not have public support if the Unites States was the aggressor. So the Army was sent to the border to provoke the Mexicans to attack first. The strategy worked and President Polk had much more support since he claimed that Mexico had attacked American Soldiers and retaliation was necessary. In the aftermath of the Mexican War, the United States obtained much new territory including the Southwestern States and Mexico was destabilized.
