9. - (гг) (1) "promised"... (cf. 13. X. 1915) - - - - (our duty was to prepare for revolutionary war)
"Whip"

10. - (aa) (2) international obligations...*
11. - (вв) (3) demoralization...
(бб) (4) "agreement" with German imperialism.*
11 bis | "Agreement" with German imperialism?

Untrue. Example of a strike.

12. Against immediate revolutionary war and for annexationist peace:
(.) objectively = agent of Wilson (100 r. per soldier).

13. (.) all-or-nothing gamble (seizure of Reval and Estland, loss of artillery and possibly Petrograd).

14. (.) impossibility of solving the tasks of socialist revolution in Russia with the continuation of war.

14. (.) exhaustion and mood of the army (now democratic).

15. (.) first finish off the Russian bourgeoisie and reorganize Russia socialistically, then begin revolutionary war, without ceasing for a moment the preparation for it.

16. .. If revolution in Germany within the next 1/4-1/2 years, then we will win, despite the hardships of revolutionary war.

If revolution l a t e r, then 99/100 chances that our power will be overthrown by the exhausted worker and peasant, power will be given to adventurers, who will then conclude an even worse annexationist peace.

17. We have no right to make the fate of the socialist revolution in Russia dependent upon such shaky, absolutely unverifiable conditions.

18. What is better: to lose Poland + Lithuania + Courland + etc., or to lose the socialist revolution in Russia?

Furthermore:
To risk losing the socialist revolution because of Poland etc.?
