Fabian's Greatest Hits

It helps to be blessed with interior lines.
While your enemy struggles to co-ordinate,
Your units will be able to shift easily
To provide mutual support where needed.

It helps that the enemy’s supply train 
Will become its Achilles’ Heel.
Draw them on with deceptive tactics
And make their time in country hard.

It helps to be fighting on familiar ground.
Like playing war in your own backyard.
Change all the road signs and jam GPS.
Hit-and-run is the plan of the day.

It helps that the world sees your courage
And applauds your will to resist.
The dictator’s boot will get polished for sure
When it’s finally shoved up his ass.

Love it, Michael. You've hit the nail on the head. And, I believe, eventually someone will do precisely that.
