All through the country, we face subversion. We are overrun with cowards who seek a way out, or, as they say, a political solution. They say we must negotiate when we can still win.

Good luck!

"Up and down the country the devil of subversion strides. All the cowards are seeking a way out, or - as they call it - a political solution. They say, we must negotiate while there is still something in hand, and all these slogans are made use of to attack the natural sense of the people, who know well that in this war there can only be a fight to the end.
