    sentences. In the first place, to fulfil a solemn international
    obligation . . . an obligation of honor which no self-respecting
    man could possibly have repudiated. I say, secondly, we are
    fighting to vindicate the principle that small nationalities are
    not to be crushed in defiance of international good faith at the
    arbitrary will of a strong and overmastering Power.
