I do to, but not going into the battlefield the enemy controls. The Art of War calls this temporizing ground. Ground you may be able to move into but your opponent can control where and how you move. If he wanted this over, he wouldn't, as some have claimed, released a Photoshop BC that a 12 year old could see through. He would have had the CIA get period documents, period typewriters, original stamps, etc, and make one that even they couldn't distinguish.

There is an old Greek myth (paraphrased heavily) about a king who was afraid his sons would take his throne. He created a maze and he promised the first who made it through could have his kingdom. The maze was enticing, full of virgins and treasures. All the sons went in but one. All the sons who went into the maze the king created never came out, they were lost in the maze. Only the one who didn't go into the maze the father created was able to challenge the father and take the kingdom.

The moral of these stories, never go into the battlefield your enemy lures you into.
