Those who endeavor to gloss over offensive wars would say:
"In the south there are the lords of Jing and Yue,
and in the north there are the lords of Qi and Jin.
天下 When their states were first assigned to them,
they were but a hundred li square in area,
and but a few tens of thousands in number of people.
By means of wars and attacks,
their areas have increased to several thousand li square
and the people to several million.
So, then, offensive wars are not to be condemned.
墨子:「Mozi said : The four or five states may have reaped their benefits, still it is not conduct according to the Dao.
It is like the physician giving his drugs to the patients.
天下If a physician should give all the sick in the world a uniform drug, among the ten thousand who took it there might be four or five who were benefited, still it is not to be said to be a common (commonly beneficial) medicine.
Thus a filial son will not give it to his parent and a loyal minister will not give it to his king.
天下After the empire was in the ancient time divided into states a great many of them died of attacks - the earlier cases we hear of through the ear, the recent cases we saw by the eye.
How do we know it is so?
In the east there was the state of Ju.
It was a small state
situated in the midst of big states.
It did not show respect and obedience to the big states,
and the latter therefore did not like it or favour it.
西So, on the east Yue cut and appropriated its land by force, and from the west Qi swallowed it up altogether.
And it was due to offensive wars that Ju died between two big states.
And it was due to offensive war too that in the south Chen and Cai were extinguished by Wu and Yue.
And it was also due to offensive wars that in the north Bu Tu He perished among Yan, Dai, Hu and Mo.
墨子:「王公大人。」Therefore Mozi said: If the rulers now really desire gain and avert loss, desire security and avert danger, they cannot but condemn offensive wars.
