Message-id:
The idea of having the enemy hit us without our hitting
back any way we could was unthinkable. It shows weakness and gives the
inititive to the enemy, and once you have lost the initiative, you have lost
the war.
Is that a quote from George W. Bush?

Nope. It is a paraphrase from a Military Tactics instructor at Cadet school.
