30 Days of Generals and Admirals – Day 5

A great people may be killed, but they cannot be intimidated. — Napoleon Bonaparte

My Take – Someone once told me that a war is not over until the losing side admits that it has lost.  If we do not allow temporary setbacks to keep us from trying once again, then we are not truly defeated.  Opponents can shriek at the top of their lungs, huff and puff about the dire consequences to us of continued resistance, and even make thinly veiled threats against our freedom, livelihoods, and lives, but until they find a way to destroy us, they have not won.  It is only when we no longer have the means and will to resist and thrive that we are defeated, and if we have the will to fight, we will find the means.
