"When an aggressor force continually launches attacks from a particular base of operations, it is sound military strategy to take the flight to the enemy"

- Timothy McVeigh

About this Quote

In this quote, Timothy McVeigh is suggesting that when facing an aggressive enemy, it is a good idea to take the battle to them rather than continuously protecting oneself. He uses the analogy of an aggressor force introducing attacks from a particular main office, indicating that the opponent has a strong and tactical position. In action, McVeigh argues that it is sound military method to counter this by attacking the enemy straight. This method not just interrupts the enemy's plans and compromises their position, however it also permits a more proactive and potentially effective outcome. McVeigh's words highlight the importance of being assertive and taking control in the face of aggression.
