Lenin on taking advantage of war

Piss-poor, slobbering pseudo-Socialists with the petit-bourgeois worm in them would try to capture the masses by jabbering away “for peace” and even “against annexation.” And everybody would find it quite natural: against war means “for peace,” doesn’t it? They must be hit first and hit hard. – Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn on Lenin’s thoughts, in August 1914.
