i'll be surprised if anyone on TFP is remotely qualified to comment on this diplomatic situation. i have a fairly firm grasp on history and i know i'm unfamiliar with the nuances this must entail.

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.
