Attack Is The Best Form Of Defence

Actually holding back, analazying your opponent, finding their open window & then attacking works the best. Going in swinging wildly & unprepared sets you up to be drawn off balance &/or surprised. You also don't give yourself the oportunity to learn what your opponent is capable of. Being prepared is always a good thing charging in blind is not.

No I wholeheartedly disagree... I believe that avoiding the battle is the first line of defense...It is a stronger person that walks away.. The week allow their emotions to run the show..They give in to weekness and go in swinging! Look at the world state of affairs right now...USA has been very bad about throwing punches in recent years and look where we are! xoxoxoxoxo

I am not sure about it, since I believe that the best form of offense is defense. Especially when the attacker doesn't know when you'll attack or IF you'll attack, as they won't see when and where it is coming. I for one don't get to be offensive, but I do give back a very ferocious blow once I get offended. I try to gather myself, plan for an attack and then hit where they hurt alot. Like from where I come from, we do not let emotions overcome our way of thinking..

hello there to U...personally, i really don't agree with that statement, "attack is the best form of defence..." well, for me, prayer is the best form of defence...i think, of all the bad and saddest stuffs that happened to you, all you gotta do is pray and ask for GOD's help... GOD is so merciful and so good, HE will be the One to carry you when you're carrying a heavy burden in your life...have faith, with professing good works...faith and work goes hand in hand, so you have to work in order to have faith...and what i mean by that is doing the right will of GOD for us...i think you don't need to feel scared whenever someone is attacking you, or someone's hating you (because you can't please everybody), or when you are in trouble...don't be afraid with it, just face it and believe that you can handle all those stuffs by yourself with GOD's help...just stay positive and be good in all aspects in your life...i am sure no one will get to attack you if you are kind and good to others...and if there would still be bad elements, i know GOD will help you because HE will never leave you nor forsake you...so we should learn to put GOD in the center of our lives...and nothing will ever harm us...have a blessed day ahead of U...may GOD BLESS U & UR family always!!!

I don't attack first, phisically, but I do when it comes to an argument with my hubby. I almost always think, if he is going to start a fight over an issue we don't agree on I will attack him first. This is a bad habit of mine, so I try to not do it, but I can't help it. Sometimes I'm sure there wouldn't have been an argument if not for me attacking him. I am trying to watch myself now, but it is so hard when this is the behavour I have had with him for the last 12 years or so. I am getting older and I don't want to fight anymore so I am learning to stop this behavour and mellow out and just enjoy life.

Well ..Its an interesting line. I belive that one should be prepared to attack...rather than just going for an attack. You will be respected and feared for your ability to handle things..so you just need to put a seed in the minds that you can be potentially dangerous.Thats it.

ofc i do agree with dat statement, it was back in scool days we had a fight n i didnt get any punishment for beating up a guy cuz i was defending myself. lol

Hello wolfie34, I am totally against war and battle the only reason is innocent people and children gets killed and those not killed suffers for their lifetime,however I am not against the destruction of demons they are not even the wellwishers of their own people and crosses all barriers with their cruelty.As far your quated line is concerned if the situation is inevitable and have no options left anymore than waiting when to get the attack concerning with demons then its always make sense to go for an attack first after you make your own defence full proof, you and your people willsuffer less.However I believe every problems has solutions and can be solved peacefully with proper reasonings but the problems is demons dont care any justified reasonings and if I give you give you conditions that if you and and your every citizens dont become a hindu by tomorrow then I will start killing the innocent people of your country, then you should decide if I am a peacelover wellwisher of human race God or a Demon.Thanks

I used to do that. Before I got married, I dated a lot and I was not that chosey in the guys I went out with, but I had a sense when they were going to dump me, so I started a fight, started acting belligerent so I had the privilege of dumping them before they broke my heart. I soon learned that I was doing that because I had been badly hurt when I was young and I hated myself for feeling that way, so I decided to act nicer. The bad guys were no longer going after me because I was not that type, and I eventually met and married my husband. So attack is not recommended unless you are facing a raging tiger.

I think I am almost always ready for attack. But I like to think that I can suss people out pretty quickly so I know who to be wary of. I am a pretty quick and sly person as well when I wanna be.

I don't agree with this statement sweety - I mean if you jump in on the attack how will you ever know that things couldn't be resolved peacefully? I think talking things through and trying to sort things out is far better than attacking first and thinking things through later! xxxx

Hello dear wolfie. I think that it is still not better to start attack first. My reason for this is: you know, when there is something very bad happening from the attack, then it is usually the fault of the aggressive one, the one who attacks. I mean that he will have more responsibilities in law while he is at a court. To reduce the possibilities of being more responsible for the unwanted that we expect to see, I think that it is still better not to attack first...

If you attack first then you are not practicing defense. I'm not saying it may not be justified, just that it isn't defense. To be defensive can involve attacking, yes, but it involves attacking as you are being attacked or after you have been attacked. Attacking first is offense. Just look at football strategy. The defense are the ones that fend off or repel the attack. The offense are the ones that go on the attack. The danger with attacking first is that you are supposing that your intelligence gathering was correct. Maybe it was, maybe it wasn't. If it wasn't (as was the case in the recent Iraq war against weapons of mass destruction) then you are the aggressor. There is a gamble being taken with that strategy. Defense has no such gamble. With defense the attack against you was certain, because it either happened or is happening. Their is a clear attack against you and you must defend yourself.

i think ignoring is not a bad defence!

The only time I have reacted this way is when driving. Mostly, to avoid an accident, one hits the brakes and comes to a screeching halt. At other times, I've deemed it more prudent to hit the throttle and get out of the way because to brake would be to find myself in a mess. Speeding up could be a form of attack and braking could be seen as defensive in a driving situation.

i would have to say in general defense is the best offense.. but there are times where striking first matters.. and sometimes its striking first that brought failure upon you.. for example.. if any of you have seen 300.. the spartans believed in defending in that battle and it won them the war (as told by the movie not by historians).. where as the persians decided to strike first but they lost anyways

Attack is the best form of defence...that is how machiavelli thought. and he is right. by attacking first forceflly you take the wind out of the sails of the enemy. the attack has to be very forceful and swift. only then it makes sense. but defending also has its own advantages. he can lay a good trap for the attacker to walk and get decimated. many battles are won this way. history is full of such instances. attack is the best form of defence when one knows where one is walking into, what the enemy is and his positions are.
