selfish ends to serve, no dominion no quest should be desired. Neither any selfish motive should
be required, nor indemnities are demanded and they should seek no material compensations in
terms of the sacrifices that the people make freely. “We shall be satisfied when those rights have
been made as secure as the faith and the freedom of nations can make them (line:47-48)”, he
wanted to integrate peace for which he said that, the rights of mankind is the most important and
central factor of democracy and all human kinds must be satisfied when those rights are achieved
securely along with the required freedom in the nation (Wilson 2020). It is the most distressful
and oppressive act and duty for the Congress gentlemen to whom Wilson addressed that there are
months of sacrifice and fiery trials which are ahead in order to implement democracy in the
country as well as in terms of discontinuing the war. It is a very fearful potential act in order to
convince the people who are at great peace and drag them into the scenario of war, which is the
most disastrous and immensely terrible of all, but that will also transform the civilisation under
the field of total balance, as right, democracy and freedom is more precious than just merely
staying at peace and we shall keep on fighting and struggling for the things which adds value to
our lives and gives us the right to make our own choices in order to enjoy complete democracy

without any rancour in needing nothing but only democracy and peace (Wilson 2020). Woodrow
Wilson and its peacemakers works for integrating the thought of democracy in everyone, so they
should feel the sense of confidence and the urge for freedom. It is much easier in order to
conduct in oneself belligerents keeping a high spirit of fairness and right in terms of act without
Animus but not intending to desire in bringing any injury to anyone neither any enmity toward a
person and disadvantage among them but only in accordance to the opposition armed force to an
government which is irresponsible as it has no human consideration and thrown aside all values
