the most telling effect of this article and those of its ilk is the remarkable extent of double standards. while recalling past posts filled with indignation at this quote or that in the past... i can't help but grin at some of the comments on this thread.

If you will not fight when your victory will be sure and not too costly, you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance for survival. There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves.
~ Winston Churchill
