47556 - Strange choices

N. Lygeros
Translated from the Greek by Athina Kehagias

Due to cowardness the choices were strange.
Due to opportunism, cowardness is allowed.
Due to lack of knowledge, ignorance is a tool.
Although there is no strategic reason.
The city of Mystras
should not have fallen.
It could have resisted its enemies.
But what would you do with internal barbarism.
For it, there was no significance
neither in Byzantium
nor in Venice
it was seeking slavery without a cost
and that came with the Turkish occupation.
Therefore the strange choices
became deadly
without a reason.
Upgraded history shows the weaknesses
due to the absence of strategy.
As a result the imperfections of the interpretive analysis
are not transferred to the structure
of deep history
but its very core
acquires an endurance
which assures it
with its intertemporal distinctness
even with attacks of barbarism.
