i'm not sure that i'm missing the point as much as disagreeing w/yours.
i understand your argument, but i just do not agree w/you on this point. foreknowledge of action does not necessarily dictate the action itself. i'm not sure if there is anyway to breach the divide on this issue, though i'm open to any additional ways to look at it.

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.
