Yeah, but who cares. Hitler probably hesitated before killing his first Jew, but how far did that get him?

Seems to be particularly profound in 2007.

Sounds good on paper...but considering the source,with a lot of other people,I give it a 5.In reality,Golda was Israel's Prime Minister during the '73 Yom Kippur war,which was a near disaster.In her autobiography,she regretted her decision to let the Arabs throw the first punch.

Drummond, this quote extols the virtue of being slow to draw battle plans and set them in motion, which is what you seems to mean by what you wrote. Just that you got the first sentence a little backwards. :)

In fact, I believe the opposite. A true leader resists gut reactions in favor of more deliberation, and wants to hear all sides of an issue before making a decision.

It fits my definition of patriotism when war is seen as a last resort.

..and a leader who was planning a pre-emptive invasion well before the tragedy he used as an excuse to invade should be IMPEACHED !

Given Israel's historical military situation, I find this a particularly interesting and pithy quote.
