the problem of the czechs in the 1940′s is not dissimiliar to the the problem faced Israel in 60 AD. For Honor as in Churchhill’s line– “There may be even a worse fate. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish then to live as slaves.” –do you rebel against the romans knowing what their response would be and what had happened in 589 BC –or do you hold on to your temple and country and just wait out the Romans–in the knowledge that eventually the roman empire would go the way of all empires before.
