“The talent of the strategist is to identify the decisive point and to concentrate everything on it, removing forces from secondary fronts and ignoring lesser objectives.”
― Carl von Clausewitz, On War

“Singling out a perceived threat to our end goal of peace does not serve that end”
― Michael Poeltl, Armageddon

“Never give in. Never give in. Never, never, never, never—in nothing, great or small, large or petty—never give in, except to convictions of honour and good sense. Never yield to force. Never yield to the apparently overwhelming might of the enemy.”
― Winston Churchill

“In the United States, the dominant analytic framework for explaining international relations today is realism. ... Those deploying this model to explain Russia’s behavior today...offer several prescriptions for how to defuse the current Russia-Ukraine crisis:

Freeze NATO expansion and Russia will be content.
Offer face-saving concessions that give Russia tangible gains and the threat of war will subside.
Don’t arm Ukraine because that will fuel escalation and trigger a Russian invasion.

If Putin thought like us, maybe some of these proposals might work. But Putin does not think like us. He has his own analytic framework, his own ideas and his own ideology â€� only some of which comport with Western rational realism.”
― Michael McFaul

“Scorched earth!”
