The absurdity of the posturing and counter-posturing in Crimea has reminded me of the Douglas Adams view on warfare: The history of warfare is similarly subdivided, although here the phases are Retribution, Anticipation, and Diplomacy. Thus: Retribution: Im going to kill you because you killed my brother. Anticipation: Im going to kill you because I killed your brother. Diplomacy: Im going to kill my brother and then kill you on the pretext that your brother did it.
