These are my weapons, said General Kutuzov at the Battle of Borodino.
The War of 1812, pitting Russia against France, was enmeshed in a mix of military advisors.
On the one hand, a coterie of Tsar Alexander's German advisors.
On the other hand, one man stood alone.
This was the Russian nationalist and patriot General Kutuzov.
Lying on his bed during those sleepless nights just before the Battle of Borodino, Kutuzov imagined all sorts of contingencies.
But one stood out.
Not a single Russian boy has to die in this battle, Kutuzov advised the Tsar.
Let Napoleon and his army come into Moscow unharmed, and let them eat horse flesh.
He meant the evacuation of Moscow and the subsequent scarcity of food.
He meant the slaughter of horses by Napoleon's army to stave off starvation.
Yet, 20,000 still starved to death.
Another 30,000 died retreating in the frigid Russian winter, plunging down to negative 35 degrees Fahrenheit.
The lesson to be learned that Tolstoy so brilliantly brings out in War and Peace is that Kutuzov saw God's providence in its wider scope.
Winter was coming on, Napoleon was hell-bent on taking Moscow, yet no food would be available, and thus Kutuzov was able to say boldly, patience and time, these are my weapons.
I'm about to launch the Brother Nathaniel Show.
Like Kutuzov, I see God's providence in its wider scope.
With the outrage of the Jewish genocide in Gaza, the ADL's unconstitutional censorship, the hacks on Capitol Hill doing the will of AIPAC, the mass invasion of our southern border to replace a white Christian consensus, the Brother Nathaniel Show's strategy is to unite all like-minded Americans to put an end to Jewish rule.
